Chapter 6 I haven't been the boss for many years Flying warehouse web
Li Yi's voice was not loud, but the distance between them was really too close, and the girl thought it would be hard not to hear.
The girl's face turned red and she didn't know how to answer, so she pretended not to hear it and changed the subject: "My name is Wang Shanshan, which class are you in?"
Li Yi was thinking about how the girl would respond when he heard a somewhat depressed voice say: "I'm from Class 5 of Senior Three, and you're also a student at No. 42 Middle School?"
"Hmm! I'm in Class 6 of the third year, didn't expect we're from the same batch." Wang Shanshan apparently had no qualms and quickly became familiar with Li Yi.
Li Yi was almost certain that the girl had a fever. He hesitated for a moment before asking, "Why didn't you go to class today?"
"I'm not feeling well, I'd like to take a day off," Wang Shanshan said. After finishing speaking, she felt that this sentence was easy to be misunderstood, so she added another sentence, "Don't think too much about it, I didn't get my period..." She became more and more flustered as she spoke, lowering her head again, fidgeting with the hem of her clothes in embarrassment.
Li Yi found Wang Shanshan very interesting and smiled: "I know you don't mean that, isn't it just a fever? Why not go to the hospital?"
"Ah! How did you know I had a fever?" Wang Shanshan indeed had a fever, but it wasn't severe and she wanted to tough it out.
Li Yi glanced at Wang Shanshan and said, "Your face doesn't look good. Is it a fever or what? Hurry up to the hospital! Otherwise, if your brain gets damaged from the fever, it'll be hard to treat."
"It won't be that serious, will it?!" Wang Shanshan exclaimed in surprise, thinking that having a fever wasn't a big deal.
"If you're not doing well today, the situation is even more severe." Li Yi didn't want to see Wang Shanshan burn out her brain; such a beautiful woman becoming an idiot would be truly a pity.
Wang Shanshan blinked her eyes and said, "Okay! I'll listen to you, I'll go to the hospital this afternoon." After saying that, she thought of something else and worriedly asked, "Li Yi, you said they won't come looking for us again, is that true? What if he comes again this afternoon?"
"Don't worry! They won't come again." Li Yi knew that those people would come to the scene in the afternoon, as long as he didn't leave, it was easy to settle this matter.
Just then, students from Class 42 came walking quickly this way, having listened to a morning of classes and were all starving.
In the crowd, there were two familiar figures, one of whom had apparently spotted Li Yi and quickened his pace.
Wang Shanshan only then realized that she was sitting too close to Li Yi, and seeing some students approaching, she hastily stood up and said: "Li Yi, I have something to attend to, you sit for a while."
Li Yi watched as the beautiful woman walked away, then turned to smile at the approaching pair and said, "Why didn't you skip class?"
"What the hell! I don't know what's wrong with the two class monitors today, they're standing outside the door after class, preventing us from skipping class." Liu Wei said in a depressed tone.
"You can take advantage of going to the toilet to skip class!" Li Yi said with a smile, "They can't follow you all the time, right? At worst, you can split up and go in different directions."
"We can't even escape class, where would we go?" Zhang Chao suddenly remembered Li Yi sitting with a beautiful girl earlier and smiled ambiguously. "I said why did you sneak out of class? It turns out it's for the beauty, having one is not enough, now you're hooking up with another fool, how are we supposed to live?"
Li Yi's expression changed and he said: "Don't mention Zhou Yuyan in front of me again."
It was rare for Li Yi to speak in such a tone, and they exchanged a glance, neither of them knowing what had gotten into him today.
Liu Wei sat beside Li Yi and asked in a low voice: "Brother, what's going on?"
Li Yi thought for a moment and decided it was pointless to hide it any longer, so he just said it out loud.
"What? How can Zhou Yuyan be like this? If it wasn't for us saving her back then, she would have been taken away by those thugs. Now she's treating you like this." Zhang Chao was a hot-headed person and couldn't take it anymore, furiously saying, "You tell me which hotel she is at, I'll go give her a few slaps..."
"Never mind, let bygones be bygones. It's not worth it for a woman like her." Li Yi waved his hand and felt annoyed when he thought of Zhou Yuyan's words.
"Brother, how can you just let it go like this? You've given up so much for her, and now it's all over?" Zhang Chao said angrily.
Li Yi smiled and said: "But what's the use of going? Can't we just take her away by force?"
Liu Wei coughed lightly and made a roundabout remark, saying: "Zhang Chao, you don't know this, do you? The boss now has better choices, what's the need for Zhou Yuyan? If I were him, I wouldn't want that kind of woman either."
Zhang Chao was taken aback, revealing an expression of understanding, and gave Li Yi a thumbs up, saying: "Boss, you're still the best! You've got both of the two biggest school flowers all to yourself."
"Two campus belles?" Li Yi was stunned, Wang Shanshan might be of the level of a campus belle, but Zhou Yuyan's appearance was just above average, at most she could only be considered a class belle.
Liu Wei smiled and glanced at Wang Shanshan, saying: "There's one here, and there's another in our class."
"Classmate?" Li Yi thought of Chen Tong, and suddenly felt speechless. He didn't believe that because of what happened in the morning, she would fall in love with him. He couldn't help but say, "You guys are just joking, Chen Tong isn't my type, her grades are so good, there's a big gap between us."
"She's not yours now, but maybe later! Do you know what Chen Xiaofei said to me when we just came out?" Liu Wei said mysteriously.
Li Yi was also somewhat annoyed and hastily asked: "What did she say? Could it be that she wants to marry me?"
"Hmm... marrying you is out of the question, she just wants me to find you and get you back to class." Liu Wei said with a smile, "Honestly, did you really touch someone?"
"I wasn't clear about it at that time either." Li Yi smiled awkwardly and changed the subject, "You guys go eat first, help me keep an eye on this store later."
"Oh! I had forgotten that I was hungry, boss, bring two bowls of beef noodle soup and six baked buns." Zhang Chao shouted loudly after sitting down.
Li Yi stood up and left, walking quickly towards a small alley outside the campus. Since Chen said he should go back to class, he had to save face, after all, she was also a beautiful woman at the level of a school flower. But when he returned to the classroom, there was nothing to do, so Li Yi thought of a book he had been reading since the first semester of high school, which was said to be finished this month, and it was just an opportunity to read the grand finale.
Li Yi is a person who sees things through to the end. Having read for over a year, he doesn't care about the ending anymore. Due to Zhou Yuyan's provocation, Li Yi has secretly decided that after finishing this book, he will start studying hard, regardless of his final grades or whether he can get into college. At least he tried his best and has no regrets.
The alley is very deep and the bookstore is hard to find. Li Yi hasn't been here for a long time, and he almost forgot the exact location.
Li Yi almost forgot the location of the bookstore, but the owner did not forget him. Seeing Li Yi walking over, he smiled and greeted him, "Young brother, it's been a long time since you've come!"
"Hmm!" Li Yi nodded casually and said, "I heard that 'The Tyrant's Absolute Kill' has been completed, is the book out yet?"
"This book 'Ba Xian' is rented out too well, dozens of copies have been rented out. Otherwise, you can wait a bit?" The shop owner still smiled and began to recommend other books to Li Yi.
Li Yi was about to focus on studying and didn't have the mood to read other books, so he waved his hand: "Forget it, if someone returns a book, remember to save one for me, I'll leave first."
Just as he was about to walk into the store, the owner called out to Li Yi and said: "Young brother, I remembered that there is still a damaged copy left. Do you want it?"
The remaining pages are actually just a few less, as long as they're not crucial chapters, it's barely passable.
Li Yi just wanted to finish reading this book quickly and didn't care if there were a few pages missing, nodded and said: "Just leave the incomplete pages as they are! Find them for me."
The shop owner searched through a big pile and finally found the book, sweating profusely. He handed it to Li Yi and said, "Because it's missing pages, I'll rent it to you cheaply, 50 cents a day!"
Li Yi took it in one hand and looked at it, completely speechless. The book was not only torn, but many of its pages had turned yellow, and some were even stuck together.
Damn it, wasn't this book just released? How did it end up like this?
Li Yi felt unhappy in his heart and asked back: "Do you still want 50 cents a day for this book?"
"Hmm..." The shop owner glanced over and also felt that this book was indeed influential, saying "How much did you say it was?"
"One dollar!"
The shop owner was stunned, looking at Li Yi in surprise and muttered: "What did you say?"
"One yuan to finish reading, that's it." Li Yi took out a steel coin from his pocket and walked out of the bookstore without looking back.
The shop owner sighed and put away the one-dollar bill, muttering to himself: "It's just one dollar after all! If it weren't for absolute bookworms, I wouldn't be able to rent them out at all."
Li Yi stuffed the book into his bosom and strode towards the school gate. As soon as he arrived at the street where Wang Shanshan's shop was located, he heard a loud shouting sound coming from that direction.
"Liu Wei, get out of here, let Li Yi come over, I want him to give me an explanation in person."
"Zhang Xiaoliang, don't you also reflect on your own moral character? Is our brother Yi someone you can see just because you want to?"
"Whoa! Three years haven't changed you, your temper has gotten worse. Back in middle school, you wouldn't have dared to speak to me like that."
"That was then, this is now, I still say the same thing, if you want to see our brother Yi, just wait here!"
"How long are you going to make me wait? Do you believe I'll smash this store right now?" Zhang Xiaoliang felt embarrassed in front of his brothers and waved his hand, "Go ahead and smash..."
Just as the crowd was about to take action, a figure emerged from the crowd. Everyone's eyes fixed on him, and it turned out to be none other than Li Yi.
"I dare anyone to smash it!"
Li Yi finished speaking and walked a few steps down to stand in front of Zhang Xiaoliang, coldly snorting: "I thought you'd found some backing, but it's just you..."
"Boss, so this is really your territory!" Zhang Xiaoliang immediately changed his tone and smiled in welcome.
He was in the same class as Li Yi back then, and had also mixed with Li Yi before. However, at that time, there were too many younger brothers around Li Yi, so he couldn't do anything. Later, when he didn't get into high school, Li Yi washed his hands of being the big boss, and he finally had the opportunity to lead a group of younger brothers in this area. That's why Zhang Xiaoliang subconsciously regarded Li Yi as the old boss from back then after seeing him.
"I'm no longer the boss, speak up! What do you want to do about this?" Li Yi lifted his right foot and stomped it on the chair, the old boss's imposing manner was nowhere to be seen.
With so many brothers watching, Zhang Xiaoliang's face couldn't hold up if he didn't take action for them. How could he manage these younger brothers in the future? Even though Li Yi was his elder back then, that was just back then. He didn't have to be afraid of him now: "Yi brother, you were wrong first, can you at least give me an explanation?"
