"This kid is young, but his skills are impressive, and he speaks and acts with great maturity. He's just like an old hand; he doesn't resemble a newly adult college student at all. I hope you two don't laugh, but I'm actually a bit afraid of him now," Wu Liangdong said as he downed his drink and set the cup down.
"What’s there to laugh about? The Criminal Investigation Team in the Shanhai Branch has been messed with by Chang Qingxi; they look like a bunch of lost dogs now," Zhao Pengfei replied, shaking his head.
"My bodyguard, Hou Long, is somewhat familiar with him, but I haven't seen him myself," Xiao Hansheng said. "You have a Seeking Society in Haizhou, and their leader, Han Shenghui, is a junior of Hou Long from the sports academy."
"Now the Seeking Society has become quite formidable in Haizhou. The Criminal Police Team's Wang Siyuan has teamed up with Han Shenghui. I was planning to stir up some trouble for the Seeking Society recently, but they seem to be doing legitimate business now instead of engaging in shady dealings. Plus, they've just been assigned to help out at the Provincial Department," Wu Liangdong continued. "I even suspect that the real leader of the Seeking Society is Zhang Yang; the Black Wolf Han Shenghui is completely in awe of him."
"So, I didn't make a move when he was in Haizhou. I didn't expect him to come to Shanzhou for university and end up joining the Heavenly Mechanism Group. For someone like me in business, that's a unit to be wary of," Xiao Hansheng poured himself another drink.
"A businessman? Hahaha," Wu Liangdong laughed. "Mr. Xiao traverses both the official and business worlds; how can he be simply described as a businessman?"
Zhao Pengfei chuckled lightly, thinking that Wu Liangdong's flattery was impressive yet felt natural. He knew well about Xiao Hansheng's current influence; aside from logistics and health products, Kangbao Group had ventured into real estate in recent years. To secure land deals, countless benefits had been given to his father, Zhao Kuan, and many influential figures in the province and city were regular guests at Xiao Hansheng's table.
Thus, when Xiao Hansheng mentioned dealing with Zhang Yang, Zhao Pengfei thought that while it wouldn't be easy, it certainly wasn't impossible.
At this moment, Xiao Hansheng said, "After all, Zhang Yang is from the Heavenly Mechanism Group. If we want to deal with him, we need to do it cleanly and beautifully without leaving any future troubles."
Wu Liangdong glanced at Zhao Pengfei and said, "Right, the three of us should join forces—money for money, strength for strength. We shouldn't fear missing out on a golden opportunity."
After dinner, the three descended the stairs and walked into the hall. Wu Liangdong casually glanced around and suddenly noticed Zhang Yang walking towards the entrance with several young people beside him.
They met face-to-face unexpectedly.
"Wu Squad, you've come to Shanzhou?" Zhang Yang asked naturally without any discomfort.
"Oh wow, Brother Zhang! What a coincidence? Just arrived and having dinner with friends," Wu Liangdong quickly regained his composure.
"And Zhao too? Truly birds of a feather flock together," Zhang Yang remarked as he glanced at Zhao Pengfei before adding, "It's not that heroes don't gather."
Upon hearing Zhang Yang's first half of the sentence, Zhao Pengfei's expression changed as he suddenly noticed Chu Ruoxi beside Zhang Yang; the thought of "the provincial secretary's goddaughter" made his heart skip a beat. Then Zhang Yang continued with "it's not that heroes don't gather," seemingly wrapping up his earlier statement. Zhao Pengfei forced a smile and nodded.
"And who might this old hero be?" After greeting the two men, Zhang Yang suddenly spotted Xiao Hansheng and asked directly without hesitation.
Seeing Zhang Yang's face, Xiao Hansheng was momentarily stunned; he was indeed a handsome young man, and notably, he bore some resemblance to Yang Shuman. Yang Shuman was once known as the factory flower, and naturally, she was a beauty.
Xiao Hansheng quickly recovered and extended his hand. "You're Xiao Zhang, right? Good eye! To be able to find Black Orchid among the scrap, I see you are a hero among youths, hahaha."
Xiao Hansheng did not reveal his identity, but upon hearing "Black Orchid," Zhang Yang immediately recognized him as Boss Xiao from Hou Long and shook his hand. "So it's Mr. Xiao. My apologies."
After some pleasantries, the two groups dispersed.
Watching Zhang Yang's back, Zhao Pengfei gritted his teeth and said, "What a narrow path for enemies."
On the way back, Chen Xiangyu and others inquired about Zhang Yang and were greatly surprised after learning the details. "So you're a millionaire? If I had known earlier, I would have ordered more expensive dishes just now," Cai Fengfeng remarked. "Next time," Wang Zhongwei added.
The group returned to school, took a short break, and then went to class. Zhang Yang's class had two consecutive sessions of Legal Theory in the afternoon.
The teacher for Zhang Yang's Legal Theory class was named Mu Rujun, a woman in her thirties who graduated with a PhD in Legal Theory from Yanjing University. She had an average appearance but was well-endowed and was known as one of the four deadly charms at Huaxia University of Political Science and Law. The term "deadly charm" referred to her ability to catch students who were slacking off.
This class was held in a large lecture hall. Zhang Yang chose a corner in the last row. Once Mu Rujun began her lecture, he took out the book Medicinal Plants and quickly became engrossed in it.
"That student with his head down, did you hear me?" Suddenly, Zhang Yang heard someone calling out. He looked up to see everyone turning to look at him while Mu Rujun on the podium was signaling him. It turned out that Mu Rujun had posed a question and called on "the student with his head down in the last row" to answer. However, Zhang Yang had been absorbed in Medicinal Plants and only raised his head after several calls from Mu Rujun.
"Could you please repeat that, teacher?" Zhang Yang quickly stood up.
"My question was: What is the distinction between the origin of law and the essence of law?" Mu Rujun repeated. She thought to herself that this student had been looking down and probably wouldn't be able to answer.
"The origin of law refers to the material living conditions of society, while the essence of law refers to its most fundamental form—the rights and obligations recognized and guaranteed by public authority," Zhang Yang answered succinctly without hesitation. That evening, after returning from the criminal police team to his dormitory, he lay on his bed and reviewed Legal Theory; after consuming Tianshan Snow Lotus, his memory improved significantly—he could truly read ten lines at a glance.
Mu Rujun was quite surprised; she walked directly off the podium toward Zhang Yang. He wanted to hide the book but realized he was alone in the last row with no one to assist him, and Mu Rujun was staring at him intently, making it difficult for him to act.
"Medicinal Plants?" Mu Rujun picked up the book, continuing her surprise. She thought he might just be reading for leisure but realized he was actually studying. However, her anger remained unresolved: "I think you should apply to study at a Traditional Chinese Medicine university; coming to Law School is truly wasting your talent!"
"I'm sorry, teacher. I intended to read during the break but couldn't help myself just now; please forgive me," Zhang Yang smiled apologetically.
"I'll take this book for now. If you can score above 90 on your Legal Theory exam, I'll return it to you!" Mu Rujun said before taking Medicinal Plants and turning to leave.
"No way!" Zhang Yang said loudly.
"Why are you shouting? Are you reading extracurricular books during my class and getting all worked up?" Mu Rujun's expression, which had been relatively normal, changed immediately after Zhang Yang said "no way," her brows furrowing in anger.
"How can this be considered an extracurricular book? This is a professional textbook," Zhang Yang replied seriously.
"In my class, reading anything unrelated to jurisprudence is considered extracurricular!"
"Even if it is an extracurricular book, you have no right to confiscate my book. I am not disturbing other students' learning, and I have answered the questions."
"You..."
"Teacher, to be honest with you, other books might be fine, but this one was given to me by my Godmother, so I hope you can spare it."
"Smack!" Mu Rujun threw the book to the ground and turned to leave, her high heels clicking loudly on the floor.
"Pick up the book!" Zhang Yang glanced at the book on the floor, and in the rising dust, his eyes suddenly shone with intensity as he shouted.
