Chapter 77 - Means of Coping
Chapter 77 - Means of Coping
Ning Fei said that he would deal with Qin Ran and the Qin family, but he didn't say a word about what method he was going to use.
The Qin family’s lawyer was not concerned about the fact that only Lin Shengjia’s guardian chose to settle. This case was not high enough for public prosecution, at most it was a public security punishment, not to mention that Qin Ran was still a minor. If Ning Fei chooses not to reconcile, then he can file a civil lawsuit. The lawyer believes that Ning Fei is just thinking about reassuring himself because he is young and has no worries. The court will then use the trial time and very little compensation to teach him a lesson.
In short, the mediation for the day finally ended. When a group of people came out of the police station building, Luo Chenghong found that Ning Fei did not go to the carport, but went straight to the gate.
"You don't ride a bike?" Luo Chenghong asked, "Should I take you home?"
"Thanks for the invitation, but I'm not riding on purpose. I don't have the hobby of being tortured by the wind in such a cold weather." Ning Fei glanced at him and gathered her scarf, "And I'm not going home."
"Where are you going, for a date? Hasn't Duan Yunhong been here for a while?"
In fact, Duan Yunhong had only been absent for a week, but Ning Fei was too lazy to refute and only replied: "Go and remove the stitches."
"Oh..." Luo Chenghong looked at his face and said jokingly, "It seems that you are destined to have a disfigured face during the New Year's Eve. Did he kick you out of bed because of your disfigured face?"
Ning Fei ignored his malicious speculation and sneered, "Then the Lin family invites me to have New Year's Eve dinner the day after tomorrow, and I'll go with my wounds exposed. Anyway, they're not looking at me."
"Want to scare me?" Luo Chenghong approached and deliberately lowered his voice. "Then I will stare at you, don't be shy. By the way, if he doesn't come, try to spend the New Year's Eve with me? I also like to turn on the lights when I'm in bed, and the wound may make me more excited. If I make your wound more exaggerated, will you be angry?"
If they were not still in the police station compound, Ning Fei would have kicked him up long ago.
But at this moment, he very restrainedly made an "international friendly gesture" and then turned and left.
Luo Chenghong laughed in the back, which made Luo Xiuping, who came out from behind, look puzzled: "What are you laughing at? Where's Teacher Ning?"
Luo Chenghong smiled and replied, "Nothing, he's going to the hospital to have his stitches removed, and he said he'll come back the day after tomorrow with his wound open, so we shouldn't be afraid."
"What's there to be afraid of? Let him come. Don't worry too much." Luo Xiuping waved her hand. "By the way, are you coming too? Or do you want to hang out with your bunch of friends?"
"Let's go eat first." Luo Chenghong looked in the direction of the courtyard gate. He seemed to be able to see the man's back. "Where to go for New Year's Eve...we'll talk about it later."

Ning Fei dealt with Qin Ran the next day.
Instead of finding a lawyer to prepare a civil lawsuit, or reporting his evil deeds to the school, he went straight to Qin Ran—and stopped him on the street.
“Excuse me for a few minutes.” Ning Fei stood in front of Qin Ran, looking at the underage boy who was as tall as himself. He raised his chin and pointed in the direction of the playground. “Want to chat?”
Qin Ran had of course already received the news and knew that Ning Fei was actually planning to fight the Qin family to the end. However, he, the Qin family, and the lawyer did not expect that Ning Fei would actually come to see someone face to face like this. So when suddenly facing this seemingly calm but actually unfathomable teacher, Qin Ran would still subconsciously be on guard: "What are you talking about?"
"You know what to talk about." Ning Fei smiled, "What are you afraid of? I'm a teacher. I can't do anything to you in school."
This statement sounds like an attempt to cover up something. Ning Fei's glasses were broken and he didn't buy new ones. Now there was only gauze on his face. When he smiled nonchalantly, there was a hint of cruelty in him. At this moment, he didn't look like a gentle and polite overseas returnee teacher, but more like a ruthless thug.
Seeing Qin Ran didn’t move, he said slowly, “You don’t even dare to go? Aren’t you quite lawless when you spend money to beat up your classmates? So in the end, you’re just a coward who bullies the weak and fears the strong.”
“Don’t provoke me.” Although he said so, Qin Ran really didn’t want others to see that he was weak. He calmly took out his phone and took a look at it, pretending to be at ease: "I'll only give you ten minutes."
"It won't take that long." Ning Fei turned around and walked towards the playground first, "Let's go, classmate Qin."
Qin Ran seemed to be calm as he put his hands in his pockets, but in fact he tightly grasped his phone and followed Ning Fei's footsteps.
The playground is actually quite lively, with many students coming here to exercise after school. A girl jogged past Ning Fei and Qin Ran. When she ran about ten meters away, Ning Fei suddenly asked, "Does Ji Xingzhe know that you failed?"
“…What?” Qin Ran was obviously unprepared for this question. He was stunned for a moment, then quickly came to his senses. “What does this have to do with Xiaozhe?”
"Don't pretend, Qin Ran. It was Ji Xingzhe who instigated you to deal with Lin Shengjia." Ning Fei's tone was firm, as if he had witnessed everything at the "commissioning site". "You are the most adult-like among those bastards, but that's all. You failed. Ji Xingzhe must be very disappointed."
"I don't know what you're talking about." Qin Ran certainly couldn't admit it. His heartbeat uncontrollably quickened, but he tried to remain calm. "Teacher Ning, is this your way of fighting back? Spreading rumors about my friend?"
"Spread rumors? Is it necessary?" Ning Fei lowered his eyes and laughed, "Tell me, if I tell Ji Xingzhe directly that you have exposed him, will he distance himself from you as well?"
Qin Ran also sneered: "Ning Fei, who do you think you are? Do you want to alienate Xiaozhe and me like this?"
"As long as the method is simple and useful, that's fine. Little friend, don't think that being complicated is smart. Sometimes the simpler, the more effective." Ning Fei squinted at him and sneered, "But it's possible that Ji Xingzhe originally intended to distance himself from you. After all, the last person who worked for him, Zhu Yueting, was distanced by him because of a bad start. Now you haven't achieved your goal, and he doesn't want people to know that you are the instigator of the 'hiring a hit', so isn't it normal for him to distance himself from you?"
"So what are you doing? Are you planning to use some despicable means to destroy the relationship between me and Xiaozhe?" Qin Ran was obviously confused by Ning Fei's unconventional moves. He didn't know how to deal with this situation, so he instinctively avoided it. "If it's just a boring demonstration like this, then I don't want to watch it. I'm leaving."
"Ha, Ji Xingzhe has tamed you guys very well. If he also alienates you, will you be like Zhu Yueting, thinking about what you did wrong all day long?" Ning Fei did not stop him, and slowly "finished the job", "How did he instigate you to deal with Lin Shengjia? He didn't dare to tell the truth, so he used the previous "reporting cheating" as an excuse. Is he saying that Lin Shengjia is using this incident to slander him and spread unfavorable remarks about him among his classmates, making him uneasy, which led to a drop in grades and even a fall that made him bedridden? Then he couldn't take the final exam, so he wanted Lin Shengjia to feel the same way and not be able to take the final exam, so that it would be fair.
"Oh no, Ji Xingzhe's tone should be like this: 'I know Lin Shengjia didn't do it on purpose, and I feel that I can adjust myself, so I didn't tell anyone before. I wanted to work hard to get a good score in the final exam to prove that I have adjusted myself. Who knew that after the teacher talked to me, I got distracted and broke my leg. Now I can't even take the final exam. Lin Shengjia's results in this final exam will definitely continue to improve. He has returned to his previous learning state. That's great. I'm so envious..."
He learned to speak in a weird, affected and sarcastic way, but Qin Ran was really confused by what he heard.
——Ning Fei actually got almost everything he said right!
Even though the specific words were different, Ji Xingzhe did say these things in the message, which made Qin Ran even more furious. The night Qin Ran finished talking with Ji Xingzhe, all he could think about was: Since it was Lin Shengjia who indirectly caused Xiaozhe to get injured, he should also pay the corresponding price!
But how did Ning Fei know? There was no way Ji Xingzhe had shown him the messages between them, right? !
Ning Fei noticed the change in Qin Ran's expression and knew that he had guessed it right. But there is nothing to be proud of. After all, Ji Xingzhe is just a high school student. He is not a bad person at all. He is still not good enough to face an experienced adult like Ning Fei.
However, Qin Ran claimed to be "mature and calm" after all, so he didn't break down immediately. After he came to his senses, he responded: "It's a wonderful reasoning, but you have no evidence. Everything is your rumor."
"No matter how much you deny, you can't cover up the facts." Ning Fei suddenly stopped and smiled, "Okay, I came to talk to you just to confirm this matter. It seems that my guess is right. I don't need you anymore, you can go."
Qin Ran stopped a step later and turned to stare at him: "Are you going to use this unfounded thing to ask the police to continue investigating?"
"Why call the police? Why go this extra step?" Ning Fei replied slowly, "Of course, we will retaliate directly against whoever started it."
Qin Ran frowned: "What do you want to do to Xiaozhe? Xiaozhe is not in school now, how can you go to his house and kill him?"
"I can't." Ning Fei smiled, "But you should have heard that I have a good relationship with his uncle. The Ji family's patriarch's younger brother, the Ji family will definitely not be on guard against him, right?"
Qin Ran was a little incredulous: "You mean Uncle Duan? How could he possibly deal with his nephew for an outsider?"
Ning Fei just smiled: "Then do you think it will happen?"
Qin Ran suddenly remembered that Ji Xingzhe and Zhu Yueting had both said that Duan Yunhong had protected Ning Fei in the Ji family. For a moment, an ominous premonition came to my mind.
***
Two days later, it’s New Year’s Eve, but during the day, people still have to go to work and attend classes. Fortunately, the school did not go so far as to arrange evening self-study for tonight, and the whole school will be on holiday after class in the afternoon.
Ning Fei returned home and actually took off the gauze on his face. He prepared to apply some medicine and went to the Lin family across the street for dinner. The uneven dark brown scar mixed with the color of the medicine really doesn't look good. Ning Fei pulled the corners of his mouth in front of the mirror and laughed at himself. If he walked down the street with this look on his face, he would probably scare the children to tears.
But Ning Fei himself didn't care. If he was told to go this way, then he would go this way. Just as he was about to go out, his phone suddenly rang.
Ning Fei walked over, glanced at the number displayed on the screen, and smiled silently.
He picked up the phone and said slowly, "Long time no see. Good afternoon, Mr. Duan."
Duan Yunhong was stunned when he heard his opening remarks. But he couldn't say "You didn't tell me not to look for you", so he replied: "...Good afternoon."
"Your call was timely. I almost left the house and was already at the door." Ning Fei turned around and leaned against the side cabinet. "What can I do for you?"
Duan Yunhong did not answer but asked: "You want to go out? Going out to celebrate the New Year?"
"Ah, going to New Year's Eve with a disfigured face." Ning Fei replied lightly, and then fell silent. At this moment, they were caught in a wonderful atmosphere. It seemed as if Duan Yunhong called just to make an appointment to spend New Year's Eve with someone, and Ning Fei also knew that he wanted to make an appointment with her to spend New Year's Eve with him. But no one said anything, not a word, as if whoever spoke first would lose.
A few seconds later, Duan Yunhong spoke again, but he still didn't talk about New Year's Eve.
What he said was: "What are you up to again? Why did Ji Zhenwei come to ask me if I was going to harm his son?"
