The semester had just begun, and Sister Mei was already so popular. What would happen once classes officially started?
Although Er Zhu worried about Li Mei’s safety, the medical college was for adults, and he couldn't exactly forbid them from dating...
Besides, Sister Mei was an adult, and she had the right to choose her own happiness!
Even though he had feelings for Sister Mei, and had even imagined spending the rest of his life with her, if she found someone better, he could only offer his blessings, couldn’t he?
After all, he had no idea when his revenge would be complete...
Thinking of Li Mei, and of revenge, Er Zhu’s eyes flickered for a moment before he regained his usual composure.
He had intended to rush straight into the dormitory but was stopped by a confessing student. "Buddy, please queue up if you want to confess. Don't you know the rules?"
A lewd-looking man glanced at Er Zhu dismissively. Seeing another person arrive, the men glared fiercely at Er Zhu.
"I'm not here to confess. Sister Mei is my sister-in-law."
Er Zhu pushed the man aside. Just as the man was about to retort, he heard this answer.
Li Mei was his sister-in-law?
Was Li Mei married?
Good heavens, what kind of man could marry a goddess as beautiful as Li Mei!
A hint of envy flashed through their angry eyes. They crowded around to ask, but upon seeing Er Zhu's cold gaze, they felt an involuntary shiver!
"Er Zhu, why are you here?"
Hearing the voice, Li Mei quickly opened the door. These men’s confessions had annoyed her, but seeing Er Zhu, all of it vanished like smoke!
"Li Mei, this guy says he's your brother-in-law. Are you married?"
"If you're married, why aren't you at home looking after your husband and children? Why are you here, wasting my feelings!"
"Alas, I thought I'd found true love, but it turns out she's a married woman!"
Seeing Li Mei, everyone crowded around her, a barrage of questions, taunts, and curses filling the air. Li Mei's face grew increasingly grim, and tears welled up in her eyes!
"My husband is dead, so I still have the right to choose happiness. And my happiness isn't you, it's Er Zhu!"
Li Mei shouted at the crowd, tears glistening in her eyes. She grabbed Er Zhu's arm, a flicker of happiness in her gaze.
This was the first time she had confessed her feelings for Er Zhu in public. Even if Er Zhu might refuse, she couldn't hold back anymore!
However, this time, Er Zhu didn't refuse. He merely surveyed the men present, his gaze indifferent.
Of course, his not refusing didn't mean he accepted Li Mei. He simply didn't want Li Mei to be harassed by these people, so he tacitly accepted her confession.
The moment Li Mei confessed, he suddenly understood: even Li Mei believed so firmly in their feelings, so why should he push her away? He wasn't some Mary Sue or saint.
"Tsk tsk, are you two modern-day Pan Jinlian and Ximen Qing!"
"My god, this kid is a murderer!"
"Haha, this is getting more and more interesting!"
Li Mei's confession didn't make the crowd leave; it only complicated matters further. A flicker of anger flashed in Li Mei's eyes, and Er Zhu's gaze grew even colder!
"You are all expelled!"
Er Zhu scanned the men who were laughing heartily, his tone extremely cold.
"Hahaha, he's going to expel us? This kid really thinks he's something!"
"Hahaha, on the first day of school, we meet a show-off, hahaha..."
Er Zhu's words didn't silence them; instead, they provoked more ridicule. Li Mei's face turned red with anger, but Er Zhu remained expressionless.
So, these people didn't know who he was?
Indeed, fools not only had poor minds but also poor eyesight.
"Open your dog eyes and look carefully! Er Zhu is the Dean of the Medical College, and he has the right to expel any of you!"
Seeing the laughter grow louder, Li Mei shouted in exasperation. But this statement only made the crowd laugh even harder.
"Dean? Such a big dean is wearing clothes worth over a hundred thousand yuan, hahaha..."
"Li Mei, why don't you say he's the Provincial Governor? Saying he's the Chairman would be even better!"
"Li Mei, if this pauper is the dean, then I'm your father!"
The leading men suppressed their laughter and spoke. Hearing this, many people fell to the ground with laughter.
Li Mei's face burned as if on fire, but Er Zhu remained as calm as ever.
"What's all the commotion about? Arguing on the first day of school. If you don't want to study, go home!"
Just as the mockery reached its peak, Vice Dean Liu Xin suddenly walked over.
Liu Xin was a distant relative of Liu Changfa and naturally knew Er Zhu better, and because he knew him better, he admired him even more.
"Pfft... Vice Dean Liu, this kid claims he's the dean, hahaha..."
"Hurry up and kick him out, our medical college can't afford to lose face like this!"
"That's right, I'm telling you, he's also a murderer!"
Seeing Liu Xin, everyone flocked towards him, unable to contain their laughter as they taunted him.
"What nonsense is this? Open your eyes and look properly. This is Dean Wang Er Zhu. He's Mayor Liu's good brother!"
Seeing everyone roaring with laughter, Liu Xin glanced at them as if they were imbeciles. The moment he spoke, the mockery ceased abruptly, and everyone looked at Er Zhu in shock.
So, he really was the dean!
They had thought Li Mei was making excuses for her lover, but they never expected her to be telling the truth!
Many students without any background quickly fled, but some from wealthy families remained. So what if he was the dean?
If they offended him, they could shut down the school with a flick of their fingers!
"I'm sorry, Mr. Wang, for the shock you've experienced. I will deal with these people severely!"
Seeing Er Zhu remain silent, Liu Xin wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and quickly promised.
His cousin had told him it was better to die than to offend Wang Er Zhu. But he had offended him on the first day of school...
The more Liu Xin thought about it, the more frightened he became, the cold sweat on his forehead increasing. The atmosphere around them became so tense it was suffocating!
"It's fine. Just expel them all."
Just as Liu Xin's heart was about to leap out of his chest with fear, Er Zhu suddenly spoke slowly.
"Dean, don't push your luck. I am the eldest grandson of the Liu family. If you dare to expel me, I will shut down your school!"
"I am the eldest grandson of the Ling family. Our Ling family controls half the ports in Huabei City. If you dare to offend me, you're dead!"
"And me! If you dare to expel me, you won't see tomorrow's sun!"
Er Zhu had barely finished speaking when many with profound family backgrounds started shouting, the air filled with tension!
Liu Xin, standing nearby, was so scared his legs went weak. He wanted to warn Er Zhu, but seeing Er Zhu's eagle-like gaze, he dared not speak.
