Shen Ming was so frightened that he took a few more steps back. “Miao Dong, I-I’m warning you not to mess around! I have your leverage in my hands. If I reveal it, neither of us will be better off!”

Miao Dong didn’t care at all. “Are you stupid? I’m messing around? Aren’t you the one who caused trouble first? Why? Don’t tell me you only know how to bully the weak but fear the strong.”

Miao Dong took two more steps closer to him. “I’ve tolerated you time and time again, but you become even worse. It seems like you really lack society’s beating. Don’t think that I won’t dare to do anything to you just because you have something on me. In the end, you’re the one who’s stupid. You were used by Miao Liang, but you are still following him happily like a pug.”

Shen Ming didn’t know what to do. He asked her, “W-what do you mean?”

Miao Dong’s usual image changed. At this moment, she was like a general holding a gun. Moreover, the gun in her hand was aimed at Shen Ming’s head, giving him an invisible sense of oppression.

Shen Ming felt a sense of unfamiliarity, as if he had never known Miao Dong. Every word she said crushed his intelligence on the ground, making his legs go weak.

Miao Dong’s beautiful eyes revealed a sharp light. Her words were straightforward and ruthless, intending to flay Shen Ming to the bone and make him start anew.

“Don’t you know what I mean? The Shen family said that you went overseas. How did Miao Liang know that you were at Science and Technology High School? It means that someone in the Shen family didn’t want you to be too happy and secretly told others about you.”

“Miao Liang wanted to teach me a lesson so that I wouldn’t have the energy to interfere with his dear sister’s affairs. He wasn’t willing to get his hands dirty, so he looked for you. I didn’t expect you to rush to help him. You’re really a fool who still wants to help others count their money after being sold!”

Miao Dong’s every word shocked Shen Ming. With his brain capacity, this was something he had never thought of. He didn’t have the energy to think about anything else. All he could think of was one question. Who wanted to harm him in the Shen family?

However, Shen Ming quickly rejected this idea. He thought that Miao Dong must be sowing discord. How could he doubt his family just because of the words of the person in front of him!

Miao Dong didn’t give Shen Ming a chance to think at all. She swung her fist and said to him, “If I don’t teach you a lesson today, I’m not Miao Dong!”

Shen Ming was shocked, and his grip on his two lackeys tightened involuntarily. A lackey’s shoulder hurt from his grip, and he couldn’t help but call out Big Brother in an aggrieved voice.

The crowd had already formed a circle during the fight. Now, when they saw Shen Ming’s sorry state, they were all pointing at him.

Shen Ming had been restless ever since he entered the school. He had provoked everyone. He had bullied almost everyone in the school who was easy to bully. Now that they saw him like this, everyone was very happy.

Shen Ming couldn’t care about his little sidekick. He only raised his voice and forced himself to maintain his last bit of dignity. “How dare you!”

Before Miao Dong could say anything, Zhou Feng walked over and shouted angrily in a low voice, “He doesn’t dare, but I dare!”

Then, Zhou Feng raised his fist and punched towards Shen Ming’s face.

The fist was only a few centimeters away from Shen Ming’s left face when a dignified and angry voice suddenly sounded, “Stop!”

Zhou Feng’s hand stopped, and a gust of wind blew on Shen Ming’s face. Now, he was like a bird startled by the twang of a bowstring. He was so frightened that his legs went weak and he fell to the ground.

The crowd quieted down and obediently opened up a path. A teacher walked over from the door.

As the teacher came against the light, Miao Dong didn’t see her clearly when she was a distance away. When the teacher got closer, Miao Dong recognized this person. It was the teacher who had helped her with the procedures at the Academic Affairs Office when she registered for school.

Li Chen appeared out of nowhere again and whispered to Miao Dong, “It’s over. Zhang Ji is here. You’re in trouble.”

Li Chen’s voice was trembling. It was obvious how afraid he was of Zhang Ji.

Miao Dong had heard of Zhang Ji’s reputation. Even though she had only been in school for a few days, countless people had already reminded her that all the teachers in this school were not scary, except for Zhang Ji.

Zhang Ji was a retired soldier. He had participated in military campaigns and had achieved second-class meritorious service. He was tough and didn’t show any mercy. In school, even the principal had to be respectful to him, let alone these students.
