Chapter 541: Chapter 541 2 Buckets of Ice Cream
Listening to Lv Junxian’s thrilling explanation, Sun Ze was a bit skeptical. He followed Lv Junxian’s finger and discovered that it was pointing at Xu Xiangbei.
Xiao Qing excitedly added, "Ah Quan got videos from the monitoring room, the ones of the fight just now. He’s sending them to us right away."
Ding! A message notification sound came, and Sun Ze received a video from his friend Ah Quan in the school’s monitoring room.
The video showed Xu Xiangbei punching and kicking, knocking down over twenty youths.
Watching the twenty youths with bruised faces groaning on the ground, Sun Ze couldn’t help but draw a sharp breath and retract his neck.
He finally believed that in the lecture hall, Xu Xiangbei had indeed shown restraint for Director Zhao’s sake.
Sun Ze corrected Lv Junxian, "That’s not your classmate but your teacher, professor, Dr. Xu."
Lv Junxian was taken aback, "He’s about the same age as us. How could he become our professor?"
Xiao Qing smiled mysteriously and said, "Of course he can. We had lunch with him this afternoon. I’ll tell you a secret: his high school classmate, ex-girlfriend, is my classmate Song Yuting."
Lv Junxian realized, "No wonder he asked if I knew Song Yuting. I said we know the beauty in our department’s senior year, of course! Turns out it was his ex-girlfriend."
While they were discussing, Xu Xiangbei saw Sun Ze and Xiao Qing and whistled at them.
Sun Ze respectfully bowed to Xu Xiangbei, "Hello, Dr. Xu."
Xu Xiangbei nodded at him casually, "Hello, just joining the fun?"
Sun Ze admired Xu Xiangbei greatly, laughing awkwardly, "Doctor Xu’s martial arts are impressive, knocking down so many people. If you have time, could you teach us a few moves for self-defense?"
Xu Xiangbei glanced at Sun Ze contemptuously, "And why would you learn them? I’m afraid if you learned some martial arts, you’d use them to bully people."
Sun Ze swore, "I swear to Dr. Xu, if I learn martial arts, I will not bully anyone, only help the weak. Uphold righteousness."
Lv Junxian joined in, looking excited, "I want to learn, too."
Xu Xiangbei didn’t want to discourage them, "If you really want to learn, go to Crown KTV and find Coach Tie Tou, say I sent you, and you’ll get a 50% discount on tuition."
Learning there’s a place to practice martial arts, Sun Ze and Lv Junxian nearly jumped for joy.
Jenny said to Xu Xiangbei and Lv Junxian, "You need to come with me to the police station to record your statements."
Xu Xiangbei jokingly replied, "No problem, I’ll definitely cooperate with Officer Jenny."
Jenny heard Xu Xiangbei recommend Sun Ze and Lv Junxian to go learn martial arts at Crown KTV and asked doubtfully, "Where are they going to learn martial arts? Don’t you think that place isn’t chaotic enough? Can Tie Tou teach them properly? If he tricks them into becoming his thugs, you’ll be harming these students."
Xu Xiangbei laughed mysteriously, "Since the explosion at Crown KTV last time, Tie Tou and Boss Peng don’t want to do stage performances anymore. They’ve turned the dance hall into a martial arts and fitness studio, where they can work out and practice martial arts. Let them practice there; it enriches their extracurricular activities and is better than playing games and causing trouble. Plus, it brings business to Tie Tou. Why not?"
"Turned into a gym? Great, I’ll check it out when I have time."
Xiao Qing stayed by Xu Xiangbei’s side and finally found a chance to chat with him. She looked expectantly, "Are you coming to teach us again tomorrow?"
Xu Xiangbei smiled, "Of course, I’ll be teaching every weekend this month to prepare you to become intern doctors soon."
"What exactly will you be teaching us?"
"It’s all arranged by Dean Li, discussions on pathological symptoms, directly facing patients, transitioning from theory to practice, preparing you for clinical internships in the second half of the year."
Seeing Xu Xiangbei chatting with Xiao Qing, Jenny smiled as she walked over, urging, "Alright, chat with the pretty ladies later. My schedule is tight; I have over ten cases to handle right now."
Xu Xiangbei returned to the Porsche, and Gu Xiangyi, having put down her phone, jokingly said, "Our great hero is finally back, successful in saving people, experience points increased."
Knowing Gu Xiangyi was getting impatient too, Xu Xiangbei comforted, "Hehe, we’ll just go to the station to give a statement and then head back to the villa. On the way, I’ll buy you your favorite Häagen-Dazs chocolate ice cream."
Hearing Xu Xiangbei say he’ll buy her ice cream, Gu Xiangyi cheered up and playfully raised a slender white finger, "I want a tub."
Xu Xiangbei was startled, "A tub? A tub is over 20 liters, like a 20-liter gasoline drum. Are you sure you can eat that?"
Gu Xiangyi dismissed his concern, "Only 20 liters, hardly enough to eat. Let’s buy two tubs."
Xu Xiangbei smiled wryly, "Ice cream should be finished on the day you buy it. You can’t take it back to Jiangcheng. If there’s too much left, it’ll be wasted."
Gu Xiangyi was determined to buy two big tubs of ice cream, pouting and playfully said, "I’m not buying them just for myself. My sister wants to eat too, and Jia Hui does too. Your villa has so many beautiful tenants; they all want some. One tub really isn’t enough. I drove your car back from Jiangcheng, worked hard all day, and am still with you now. You can’t even spare two tubs of ice cream? You’re so stingy."
"Okay, two tubs."
Gu Xiangyi had Xu Xiangbei buy two big tubs of ice cream and they returned to Purple Gold Villa. By the time they got back, it was evening.
Knowing her sister had arrived, Gu Xinyan didn’t sit in a wheelchair and instead was radiant, standing at the door to greet her sister with a hug, "Sis, you came to see me!"
Gu Xiangyi tenderly petted her sister’s soft hair, "Little wildcat, sis is here to see if you’ve been good lately."
The sisters laughed together, and Gu Xinyan playfully teased with her sister, "You’re the little wildcat! Missy here is Qinghai Film and Television’s soon-to-be leading lady."
Ever since Lu Yao was caught, Qinghai Film and Television’s leading lady spot became vacant. Huang Qinghai and Director Feng considered whether to sign another famous actress or cultivate a new one to fill Lu Yao’s place.
Director Feng admired Gu Xinyan greatly and felt it was better for her to take Lu Yao’s place. Using her to replace Lu Yao reduced costs, and with Gu Xinyan’s rising popularity, following a pure route, her promotion would stabilize the atmosphere and enhance the tarnished reputation of Qinghai Film and Television.
Huang Qinghai privately hinted to Gu Xinyan that "Sword Rain Love Story" would soon premiere. Depending on the audience’s reaction, if positive, they would officially sign a star contract with Gu Xinyan, meaning she would officially become Qinghai Film and Television’s star actress.
