After the afternoon class bell rang at Jiangnan University, Ye Feng was the first to leave Jiangnan University!

Today, Shu Yuehua told him that Jiang Ying had already appeased the students and teachers, but the school leadership was still going to hold a meeting to discuss punishing Ye Feng.

To this, Ye Feng was indifferent. Even if they issued him an expulsion notice, no one could force him to leave unless he wanted to go himself.

Glancing at the sky, Ye Feng found it was still early, so he started jogging toward Xu Ningxue's house.

Jiangnan University was more than ten miles away from where Xu Ningxue lived. If it were an ordinary person, they would definitely choose to go by car.

However, Ye Feng felt that he hadn't exercised in a long time, and running seemed to be a better way to flex his muscles. More importantly, he enjoyed the feeling of his feet firmly on the ground.

Ye Feng's steps were light and nimble. His running pace was neither fast nor slow, and if someone observed carefully, they would notice that each step he took was exactly consistent, as if measured by a ruler, with hardly any difference.

Xu Ningxue's home was located at the very edge of Shallow Bay; it was part of an older and more secluded residential area. Each building was separated from the next by red bricks, forming alleys of various sizes.

When Ye Feng approached Xu Ningxue's home, it was close to six in the evening and the light was beginning to dim.

But just as he turned around one alley, and the next alley would be where Xu Ningxue lived, he encountered six or seven oddly dressed youths blocking the alleyway, almost completely blocking the path ahead.

"Kid, you can't go through here! Find another way around!"

These youths were dressed in colorful clothes, sporting blow-dried hairstyles, and each one was holding a baseball bat, as if waiting for someone. As Ye Feng approached, wearing tattered clothes, the leading youth lazily said to him.

Ye Feng was taken aback, then replied, "I'm looking for my friend; she lives just ahead!"

Having said that, Ye Feng attempted to walk past them along the side of the alley.

"Fuck! Who the hell let you pass, stop right there!"

The leading youth originally thought that Ye Feng, seeing there were so many of them, would wisely back off. However, to his surprise, Ye Feng completely ignored him, causing the youth's expression to darken and he stepped forward to block Ye Feng:

"Are you blind? Didn't you see us blocking the way? You can't pass here tonight. If you don't want to get beaten up, scram!"

The leading youth, seemingly unimpressed by Ye Feng who resembled a construction worker, now brandished the steel pipe in his hand, threatening him.

But Ye Feng was amused by these guys. It's your business who you're blocking; what does that have to do with me?

"You block your people; I'll walk my path. Excuse me, but please let me through!"

Ye Feng's voice was neither servile nor overbearing, his expression calm.

The seven or eight people were momentarily stunned upon hearing this. Clearly, they hadn't expected someone who looked like a beggar to be so bold. The leading youth frowned and asked Ye Feng in confusion:

"Are you Ye Feng?"

The youth scrutinized Ye Feng up and down, seemingly uncertain.

Ye Feng was also taken aback, then quickly caught on, his expression taking on a playful tone, "Are you here for revenge?"

Ye Feng had once taught a lesson to a few loan sharks here, so he now assumed the guys before him were in cahoots with them.

"Fuck! It's really you!" The leader's expression turned instantly grim when he saw Ye Feng's acknowledgment, his gaze revealing a trace of surprise as well.

He had expected the guy fighting over a girl with the boss to be some rich playboy, but to his surprise, it turned out to be someone who looked more like a second-generation construction worker.

"Revenge? What revenge! We're here to teach you a lesson! I'm telling you, today we'll make you remember, there are some women you can't mess with!"

With that, the young thug signaled his companions and swung a baseball bat right at Ye Feng's head:

"Fuck! Going to a class reunion, let's send him to the hospital instead!"

The thug roared fiercely, and a series of whooshing sounds tore through the air as they wildly swung at Ye Feng.

However, these fighters were no better than the local street thugs, utterly disorganized, which Ye Feng hardly took seriously. As the bat of the leader swung down, Ye Feng's hand shot out, abruptly grasping the descending bat and with a slight pull backward, instantly dispelled the force behind the blow.

Then, like a pair of steel pliers, Ye Feng snatched the baseball bat and deftly twirled it, blocking and flicking away the bats that the others swung down.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

One by one, the baseball bats were forcefully sent flying, clattering to the ground, while the young men clutched their numb and throbbing hands, their faces filled with shock.

Just at the moment of contact with Ye Feng's bat, they felt an overwhelming force course through their bats, making it impossible for them to hold on.

The leader was especially dumbfounded. Ye Feng had taken the baseball bat from his hand in just an instant, and it wasn't until his companions' bats were sent flying that he realized what had happened.

"Cough, cough... Bro, this... this is a misunderstanding! We're not after you! You can go!"

This thug wasn't stupid; his group had come with baseball bats yet couldn't harm the other party, and now they were unarmed while their opponent held a bat. If a fight broke out, they would surely be at a disadvantage.

"What a beautiful misunderstanding!"

Ye Feng sneered coldly, naturally not believing a word from this guy. With a flick of the baseball bat in hand, he then sent it flying toward the group like a missile.

Moments later, when Ye Feng walked out of the alley again, all that was left behind were a few guys groaning on the ground like dead dogs.

In front of a run-down old residential building, Xu Ningxue quietly stood at the stairway entrance, occasionally glancing at her watch, her eyes expectantly surveying the path ahead, seemingly waiting for something.

"Ningxue, the person you're waiting for may not come today! Let me keep you company instead!"

Two men stood beside Xu Ningxue; one of them was her uncle, Old Jiang, and the other was a fat, middle-aged man with drooping jowls that made him look like a grinding stone, probably close to three hundred pounds.

This corpulent middle-aged man appeared to have dressed up intentionally today, draped in designer brands and exuding an overpowering scent of men's cologne. He sported a large gold chain around his neck and not one, but two gold watches on his wrist, explaining that one was for others to see, and the other for checking the time.

Having said this to Xu Ningxue, the man then gave Old Jiang a knowing look. Old Jiang promptly got the hint and quickly chimed in with a convincing tone:

"Yeah! Little Xue, let Boss Zhang go with you to the class reunion! Boss Zhang often attends high-level social gatherings; he's knowledgeable about these events and will surely make you look good!"

PS: This was yesterday's fifth update, haha, there are still five more today! I won't be able to rush them out this morning; they will be updated in the afternoon!
