Chapter 2148: Chapter 2349: So Who’s the Real Joke On?
Hao Jian’s actions could be described as extremely fast; often, others don’t even see his movements clearly, or they have no awareness that he has already made a move. In fact, he has already acted long before they realize it. Gu Peng was laughing heartily, thinking that this time, ruining Hao Jian’s reputation in front of so many people was a very satisfying event.
As the saying goes, when people are too happy too soon, or too happy in general, they experience joy turning into sorrow. That’s exactly what happened to Gu Peng. He was laughing, ready to leave grandly with a few of his underlings, when Hao Jian’s leg suddenly stretched out and hooked onto Gu Peng’s leg. Perhaps Gu Peng hadn’t even had time to react before Hao Jian pulled, instantly dragging his right leg backward.
At that moment, Gu Peng had just stepped forward with his front foot, crossing out a step to move forward, while Hao Jian hooked his right leg with a backward pull. In a split second, with a loud "bang!", he crashed to the ground, and the sound was so loud that many people heard it.
Those few underlings were originally walking behind Gu Peng. But in the moment of their distraction and delight, Gu Peng suddenly fell to the ground, looking back to find it was Hao Jian who hooked his leg. They immediately showed anger.
Now, many people’s focus was on Hao Jian. Who was Hao Jian? Although he recently made quite a name for himself at school, he was just an ordinary student. They hadn’t heard of Hao Jian having any grand background or family history.
So when they saw Gu Peng suddenly being made to fall to the ground by Hao Jian, they all wore expressions of surprise. They thought Hao Jian’s guts were indeed big; who was Gu Peng? Yet Hao Jian dared to make him fall, really quite bold!
Earlier, they thought Hao Jian didn’t dare say a word in front of Gu Peng, believed he had chickened out, feared Gu Peng, and didn’t dare say much. But seeing this now, it was completely the opposite! Perhaps it wasn’t fear, but disdain, so he completely ignored him.
At this moment, Gu Peng had already climbed up from the ground. Just now, Hao Jian’s pull on his leg made him fall directly to the ground, covered in dust. Importantly, he was watched by so many people. Who was he, but Gu Peng? Usually, he bullied others, mocked others; when had he been bullied?
And to be made to fall by Hao Jian in front of so many people was simply a huge humiliation. What was more annoying was that looking back, he saw Zhang Danlin next to Hao Jian, witnessing the scene. Letting others see was one thing, but having the girl he liked see this embarrassing scene?
"Damn!" His anger flared immediately, seeing Hao Jian’s face now displaying a smile made him all the more furious. Regardless, he waved his hand and shouted angrily, "Damn it! Get him!"
His three or four underlings, upon seeing this, were immediately enraged. Their boss was knocked down right under their noses. If they didn’t properly punish Hao Jian, how could they continue in the future? They rolled up their sleeves, raised fists, and charged toward Hao Jian.
Hu Lai and Fatty prepared to act, but Hao Jian smiled and held their hands, stopping them. Then he smiled and said, "This little matter doesn’t need you to move. I can handle it."
Speaking of which, those few people had already rushed in front of him. He smiled, suddenly clenched his fists, and knocked out one with a punch. One wanted to compare fists with him, but unfortunately, when their fists met, his facial expression instantly twisted, unable to utter a word, a scream escaping him as he clutched his hand and knelt on the ground in pain.
The other three hadn’t had time to react; one kicked toward Hao Jian, one punched, and the other quickly ran into the classroom, grabbing a chair to hit Hao Jian.
Hao Jian’s mouth slightly curved upward in a smile. He suddenly punched toward the guy, and the one punching collapsed instantly. As for leg skills, Hao Jian’s kicking speed never lagged behind others. His kick bent the person’s thigh directly, making him kneel on the ground.
As for the one who picked up a chair to hit him, he smiled, stretched out a hand, and directly took the chair. Scaring the guy, he began to tremble, legs weak as he backed off. Hao Jian glanced at the chair, knowing a harsh smash would definitely send the person to the infirmary. He didn’t want to escalate things, causing trouble for Li Weiwei. If trouble arose again before resolving this issue, she’d certainly not spare him easily.
So he smiled, waved his hand and slapped the person across the face. The slap instantly spun him 360 degrees before he fell to the ground, a bright red handprint appearing on his face.
In just an instant, Hao Jian single-handedly knocked those four people to the ground, leaving them powerless to fight back. Seeing this, Gu Peng looked slightly stunned. Only then did he recall Hao Jian’s exceptional skills; these few were no match for him, and secretly regretted attacking.
The four, having realized the situation, stood up immediately and ran to Gu Peng’s side, looking scared.
Hao Jian smiled and handed the stool to Fatty, who was standing behind him. Fatty took the stool with one hand. Perhaps he was stunned by Hao Jian’s skills, as he looked somewhat dumbfounded. He seemingly hadn’t seen Hao Jian’s moves often, and was astonished by Hao Jian’s prowess.
Hao Jian smiled, silently looked at Gu Peng, and finally spoke, saying, "So, what now? Still want to come and watch the show?"
Gu Peng didn’t speak, but his face was full of anger. He had had several conflicts with Hao Jian, had experienced Hao Jian’s skills, and knew that a few people couldn’t handle Hao Jian. He had just been too angry to remember this until he saw Hao Jian take them all down in an instant.
So now, when Hao Jian brought this up, he calmed down a lot, knowing that going up against Hao Jian would be self-humiliation. Hence, he wasn’t overly agitated; the anger was on his face, but he didn’t speak a word.
Everyone watched, all dumbfounded. Previously, it was Gu Peng who talked to Hao Jian, and Hao Jian didn’t say a word, letting him talk. But now everyone saw it clearly—Hao Jian just didn’t want to speak. But now that Hao Jian spoke, Gu Peng said nothing, not because he didn’t want to, but because he was shocked by Hao Jian’s display, not knowing what to say, left speechless.
Previously, he was laughing at others, but now it was others’ turn to laugh at him. Gu Peng suddenly couldn’t accept this reality.
Not everyone around was naïve; they all saw this clearly. They used to be scared of Gu Peng and would avoid him, but now they dared to stand by and watch the spectacle, likely because their fear lessened as they saw Gu Peng speechless after being beaten by Hao Jian.
"Let’s go!" Finally, Gu Peng tossed out this line and then left with his people.
He didn’t look back, his face filled with anger, then he turned and left directly. His three or four lackeys, who were beaten by Hao Jian, also glared at Hao Jian angrily before turning to leave as well.
They saw the current situation clearly. They had already been beaten by Hao Jian, and if they continued to hold out, it would be hard to get any good outcomes against Hao Jian with their current manpower. Besides, things had already escalated, and several classes had come out to watch the scene. If they stayed, they would embarrass themselves further, letting more people know they were disgraced by Hao Jian.
Additionally, after such a fuss, there wasn’t much time left after the second class’s recess activities. If they stayed longer, class would start soon, and it would be troublesome if the teachers came. Gu Peng wasn’t afraid of the teachers, but why invite trouble unnecessarily?
Therefore, even though they were angry and unwilling, after analyzing the situation in their minds, they left in a huff, and soon their figures disappeared from the corridor.
At this moment, Hao Jian chuckled, clapped his hands, and said with disdain, "Dirtying my hands!"
Everyone heard this and was astonished. Seeing this, they understood that this Hao Jian indeed had the strength, feared nothing and no one.
They were all surprised, but they understood very well.
In Yawen, how many dared to confront Gu Peng like this? How many could make Gu Peng embarrassed in front of so many people? How many could make Gu Peng leave in a huff without saying a word?
They were all astonished, thinking only Hao Jian dared to do this.
They had heard of Hao Jian’s name and witnessed many of his major deeds, but today, Hao Jian once again surprised them.
Everyone looked at Hao Jian with eyes full of admiration and respect.
