Chapter 143: I’m Her Boyfriend

Just then, someone knocked on the front door.

“Diana, Eveleigh, are you in?”

Chen Zhao found the voice somewhat familiar.

“Shit, it’s the professor.” Eveleigh suddenly became very anxious.

Chen Zhao remembered. It was Wright, Ethan’s grandmother.

“I heard you. I’m opening the door,” Wright said again.

Wright pushed the door open and saw Chen Zhao, Eveleigh, as well as Diana who was on her bed with a blanket on.

“Hi, Wright, how are you doing?”

“Chen, why are you here? You...” Wright inspected the room. She saw the bloodstain-filled bin, the messy room, and Eveleigh’s nervous look. “Diana, are you ill?”

“Yes, Madam Wright, I’m not feeling well.”

“Why didn’t you go to the hospital? Or tell me about it?”

“I...”

“Wright, let’s go and drink something together.”

“Chen, you know that I can reject anyone but you. Let’s go.” Wright still gave face to Chen. However, before she left, she looked at Diana and Eveleigh. “Ladies, if you have any trouble, you can tell me. I believe I can help you. Of course, you can find him too. He’s the only... illegal doctor that I trust.”

“Wright, I’m flattered by your compliment.” Chen Zhao looked rather shy. He turned his head and looked at Diana and Eveleigh. “Eveleigh, take care of Diana. Bye.”

“Bye.”

...

“Chen, is Diana alright?”

“Not too good, but I believe she’ll make it.”

“Is it inconvenient for you to tell me?”

“Wright, you don’t want me to go against my own professional conduct, do you?”

“Since you said so, I trust that you wouldn’t let anything happen to my student.”

“Thank you for your trust.” Chen Zhao was really scared that Wright would keep asking. He also had no idea how to reply.

“Chen, do you want to teach in the university?”

“Wright, stop joking with me. I can’t be a teacher.”

“You’re more than good enough. If you want, you can become a medicine lecturer here.”

“I don’t even have a medical license. How can I be qualified to teach the students here?”

Wright shook her head. “No need for a license. I think that you are qualified, and so you are.”

“Forget it. I’m satisfied with my current job.”

“Alright. I won’t force you.”

After all, Wright was over ninety years old already. She knew how to deal with other people.

Some things just cannot be forced. One has to differentiate between ideals and reality.

For example, her student Faur always liked to idealize work and life.

While Wright looked kind and gentle in front of Chen Zhao, both students and teachers in the school would take the long way just to avoid her after noticing her.

In this university, nobody was more senior than her.

Half of the lecturers and even the professors in the School of Medicine were either her students or students of her students.

To be blunt, Wright was almost like the empress of the university.

After walking for a while, Wright was already tired. Chen Zhao held her arm and they sat down on a bench nearby.

“Wright, how’s your body recently?”

“Not bad, except that my waist would hurt every now and then.”

“Do you want some acupuncture? It can relieve your pain for one or two months.”

“Let’s make an appointment. I still have a lesson later.”

“Okay.”

“By the way, you seem to have your pets with you every time I see you. Is it your habit?”

“Yup. I’m afraid that they’ll demolish my house, so I have to bring them with me.”

“That student over there. Please buy us two cups of coffee. Thanks,” Wright instructed a nearby student directly.

“...” Chen Zhao was speechless. Wright was indeed the empress.

“Yes, Prof. Wright.”

Chen Zhao found it really special to drink coffee with a granny on a university bench.

After they finished their drinks, Wright stood up, “Chen, I’m going for my lesson.”

Chen Zhao hugged Wright. “You have my number. If you feel unwell, call me anytime.”

“Don’t worry, I’m a doctor too. Minor illnesses can’t stump me.”

After Wright left, Chen Zhao was ready to leave as well.

Before long, however, Chen Zhao was stopped.

A few students who were rather fit blocked Chen Zhao’s path with their hands crossed before their chests.

“The Asian there, come here.” Their leader was at least 1.9 meters tall and perhaps as heavy as Gaia.

“What?”

The muscleman put his hand onto Chen Zhao’s shoulder. “I saw you with Eveleigh just now. Can you explain your relationship?”

Chen Zhao rolled his eyes. It looked just like those TV scenes where a school bully encountered his love rival.

“I’m her boyfriend,” Chen Zhao replied with a smile on his face.

“Yellow-skinned monkey, you don’t deserve Eveleigh. If you don’t want to...”

Chen Zhao punched the bully in the stomach. The bully covered his stomach with his hands and knelt on the ground, vomiting his lunch out.

“Kid, do you know how childish you are?” Chen Zhao squatted down before the bully and patted his cheek. “It’s not embarrassing to challenge your love rival. What’s embarrassing is that you can’t beat him, and instead you’re beaten up.”

“Horton, Dame... beat him up...”

Chen Zhao immediately grabbed the bully’s shoulder and lifted him into the air with a single hand.

Chen Zhao was half a head shorter than the bully, but now he was holding the bully with just one hand. The scene was indeed somewhat terrifying!

The bully felt that his shoulder was about to be crushed and his face was filled with pain.

“Let go... Let go of me... If you dare to do anything to me in school, I’ll report you!”

“Before you call the police, you better prepare a script first. Racial discrimination is no light crime. Should any of you leak it by accident, I will have no idea if you would be expelled by the university.”

Chen Zhao threw the bully onto the lawn. The students around him gave way and no longer dared to block his path.

Of course, nobody dared to call the police.

No one would dare to display any form of racism openly. If a university student was found guilty, no matter what his background was, he would be expelled.

Chen Zhao dared to punch the bully in public precisely because of this.

He did not know who the bully was, but even if his family was extremely rich, they might not be able to do much to Chen Zhao.

Perhaps rich people could do whatever they wanted to legal organizations, but not towards the common man.

Rich people certainly cherished their reputation. They would not use the special relations they had just because their kids had a fight in school.
