Tang Zheng finally understood why Professor Qi had hesitated for a moment before agreeing. With his current status, it would not be easy for him to help Tang Zheng.
'He knew it would be difficult, but he still agreed to help me. I, Tang Zheng, will never forget this kindness,' he thought to himself.
After understanding the whole story, Tang Zheng began to worry about Professor Qi. He had forced Professor Qi into a difficult situation. He had to withdraw this request to save Professor Qi a headache.
He had just arrived at the university office when he saw two people arguing from afar. One of them was red-faced. Who else could it be but Professor Qi?
The other was Yan Liang. Yan Liang was full of himself and did not take Professor Qi seriously at all.
In the past, Yan Liang would never have dared to treat Professor Qi like this. He must have seen Professor Qi lose his power, so he was acting like this.
Tang Zheng was furious. He strode over and happened to hear Yan Liang's sarcastic remarks. "Do you really think you're the great Professor Qi of the past? You want to stand up for Tang Zheng? Hmph, look in the mirror. "
Yan Liang was secretly pleased. He would never have dared to treat Qi Shaowen like this in the past. This time, Qi Shaowen had taken the initiative to walk right into his mouth. Of course, he would not let go of this great opportunity to taunt him.
Qi Shaowen was extremely embarrassed. He said bitterly, "Yan Liang, so you're this kind of person. I was blinded by your pretense in the past. I'm fighting for Tang Zheng's rights. You're a real villain for retaliating. "
"Haha, I'm a villain? But I'm living a good life, unlike you who's like a jinx. Everyone avoids you. "
"You … you've gone too far!" Qi Shaowen was shaking with anger. "I'm going to talk to the dean. I don't believe there's no room for reason in this world."
Yan Liang blocked the door with his body and said disdainfully, "The dean is a busy man. He doesn't have time to deal with your trivial matters. Besides, I'll be honest with you. The dean asked me to stop you from coming. The dean doesn't want to see you at all. "
Qi Shaowen's aura faltered when he heard that. He had really become a jinx. His old acquaintances were all avoiding him.
However, when he thought of Tang Zheng's trust in him, he was unwilling to leave just like that. He had promised Tang Zheng that he would do it.
Yan Liang was enjoying Qi Shaowen's ugliness with satisfaction when he suddenly saw a figure dashing toward him.
He thought that it was an impudent student and was about to reprimand him when he realized that it was a leg that was charging at him.
Bang!
With a muffled sound, this leg ruthlessly kicked his chest. Like a kite with a broken string, he flew out in a sorry state and crashed into the door. Like a dead pig, he softly fell to the ground.
Qi Shaowen was shocked by the sudden attack. He was dumbfounded. It took him a while to realize that the attacker was Tang Zheng, who was standing in front of him with a scowl on his face.
"Um, Tang Zheng … Why are you here?" Qi Shaowen greeted him awkwardly.
Tang Zheng said bitterly, "Professor Qi, why didn't you tell me about the unfair treatment you've been receiving? Why did you have to bear it all in silence? All of this happened because of me. It's my duty and responsibility to resolve it for you. "
Qi Shaowen said sheepishly, "How did you know?"
"Old Man Wei told me everything. Besides, Yan Liang's behavior just now also explained everything. Professor Qi, why did you have to hide it from me?"
"This … It's just a small matter. You have so many things to do every day. There's no need for me to add to your troubles."
Tang Zheng shook his head and held Professor Qi's shoulder. "Professor Qi, as long as I, Tang Zheng, am around, I will never allow these clowns to bully you. I'll teach him a lesson for you and avenge you."
Tang Zheng clenched his fists so tightly that they cracked.
Yan Liang, who looked like a dead pig, immediately scrambled to his feet and said in horror, "Don't, Tang Zheng. Don't hit me again."
Although he hated Tang Zheng to the core, he did not dare to be presumptuous in front of Tang Zheng. Even though he had just taken a kick from Tang Zheng, he did not dare to show any hostility.
This was because the memory of how Tang Zheng had severely injured the president of the Martial Arts Association, Yu Zhankui, right in front of him had left a deep impression on him.
Tang Zheng would not listen to his pleas for mercy. He stepped closer and closer. Yan Liang retreated step by step until he finally reached the corner of the wall. There was nowhere else to go but he still tried his best to move backward as if he wanted to melt into the wall.
Seeing Tang Zheng raise his fist, Yan Liang immediately squealed like a pig being slaughtered. It was as if he was about to meet the King of Hell.
"Tang Zheng, stop!" Professor Qi could not wait to stop him. "Don't hit him. Otherwise, people will talk about you. Besides, it's not worth it to dirty your hands over someone like him!"
Tang Zheng was already facing the problem of being selected for a scholarship. If there was another incident of him violently beating up a teacher, he might even be expelled from the school, let alone a scholarship.
Qi Shaowen would not watch Tang Zheng ruin his bright future without doing anything.
At the last moment, Tang Zheng stopped. His fist hovered above Yan Liang's head. The wind that it created blew his hair into a mess. Even his mouth was crooked.
"Hmph, you're lucky. Professor Qi is a magnanimous man. He won't stoop to the level of a clown like you." Tang Zheng spat on the ground and said.
Yan Liang hurriedly bowed to Qi Shaowen. His head was almost touching the ground. He said gratefully, "Thank you, Professor Yan. You're a magnanimous man."
"Get lost!" Tang Zheng said in disgust.
Yan Liang immediately ran away, pissing his pants. He could not care less about the onlookers who were pointing and gossiping about him. This time, he was utterly humiliated.
"Professor Qi, let's go. These are all powerful people. Why should we beg them?" Tang Zheng said as he helped Qi Shaowen up.
Qi Shaowen sighed deeply and said, "Tang Zheng, it's all because of me. I've caused you trouble again."
Tang Zheng waved his hand and said, "This started because of me. I'm the one who caused you trouble."
Qi Shaowen shook his head helplessly and said, "Then what about your scholarship?"
Tang Zheng was not sure. However, he did not want Professor Qi to worry. He smiled freely and said, "It's okay. It's just a scholarship. I don't need that money."
Qi Shaowen sighed dejectedly and said, "But it's an honor."
"Haha, Professor Qi, do you think someone like me would care about this honor?" Tang Zheng retorted.
Qi Shaowen was slightly stunned. He finally remembered Tang Zheng's identity and felt a little relieved.
The two of them walked out of the campus together. Tang Zheng asked, "Professor Qi, what is Lu Ming doing now? What right does he have to interfere with your work? "
"He's young. Of course he doesn't have that kind of power. However, he has a powerful father. He's just a dog who bullies others." Qi Shaowen said disdainfully. He obviously looked down on Lu Ming as well.
"So he's relying on his father. Hmph, I think he's cheating his father. Who's his father?" Tang Zheng said angrily.
"A deputy minister in charge of archeology. Hey, Tang Zheng, why are you asking these questions? Don't do anything stupid. "Qi Shaowen warned him warily.
He was gradually getting to know Tang Zheng's way of doing things. Sometimes, he just liked to use violence.
For a scholar like Qi Shaowen, this kind of behavior was unacceptable.
Tang Zheng smiled and said, "Of course I'm not going to do anything stupid. Doesn't he like to rely on his father? Then I'll let him know what it means to cheat his father. I don't need to use my fists to deal with him. "
Qi Shaowen was skeptical when he saw how confident he was. He was about to persuade him again when his phone rang.
When he picked up the phone, his expression became strange. When he finally hung up the phone, he could not hide the astonishment on his face.
"What happened, Professor Qi? Who called? "
"The Principal of Yenching University."
"The Principal?" Tang Zheng searched deep in his memory and recalled the hale and hearty figure at the freshmen's opening ceremony. The Principal of Yenching University was a famous scholar and educator. He was very famous.
"The Principal said that the university has a welcoming event for me."
Tang Zheng was delighted. Since the Principal had taken the initiative to contact him, it would definitely bring more benefits to Professor Qi. It would improve his status in the university.
"That's a good thing."
Qi Shaowen was noncommittal. He said, "The headmaster said that the school will be welcoming a very important foreign guest. This foreign guest is very interested in the history and culture of the Huaxia Empire and antiques. The school is going to cater to his interests, so I'm part of the reception team."
"Which foreign guest is so important?" Tang Zheng asked curiously.
Yenching University was the most prestigious university in Hua Xia. It had always been an important target for all kinds of visitors. It had hosted many celebrities and politicians and was very experienced.
Qi Shaowen shook his head. "In order to ensure the safety of the foreign guest, the Principal said that it's not appropriate to announce his identity to the public. He just asked me to report to the welcoming team as soon as possible."
"Then Professor Qi, you should go now."
"Tang Zheng, I'll warn you again. Don't do anything stupid. Otherwise, it'll be too late for regrets." Qi Shaowen said seriously.
Tang Zheng waved his hand and told him not to worry. He strode out of the university.
In the capital city, there was a low courtyard that was hidden in a low and old residential area. It was not very visible.
When Tang Zheng stood in front of the gate of the courtyard, he felt very different from ordinary people.
Although it was not visible to the naked eye, Tang Zheng could clearly feel that many pairs of eyes were locked on him in the dark. There were even sniper rifles aimed at him.
But he was carefree and did not take them seriously at all. He swaggered toward the gate.
"Hello, this is private property. We don't accept guests." The guard at the gate said in an old-fashioned manner.
Tang Zheng smiled and went straight to the point. "I'm looking for Xu Yingtian."
The guard shivered slightly, and his expression immediately raised a level of vigilance. He asked, "Who are you?"
"I'm a special agent," Tang Zheng said calmly. This was a title that Xu Yingtian had promised him. It was a protective talisman for him.
In the past, Xu Yingtian had invited him to visit the headquarters of the National Security Bureau many times. But he never had the time. This time, he just happened to be here.
Since he had promised Xu Yingtian to join the National Security Bureau as a special agent, of course, he should do something occasionally.
