Ning Jiaqi had initially been angry with Lin Chen and wanted to use Che Yulin to vent her anger. But seeing Lin Chen being humiliated by Che Yulin like this, she felt a pang of worry and sympathy. She began to regret her previous actions.
"What about the orphanage? Let me tell you, every child there is very promising. Unlike some people who think they can embarrass their fathers just because they have a good father." Lin Chen's tone was calm, but every word seemed to carry an irresistible force.
"Who are you calling shameful! Say it again!" Che Yulin hated being called that. He felt completely enraged by Lin Chen.
"Some parents expect their sons to study hard and inherit the family business. But some sons only know how to skateboard, and even spend 100,000 yuan at a time for the sake of so-called chivalry. That's your parents' money! Don't you feel bad spending it?"
Every word Lin Chen spoke was like a sharp knife, piercing deep into Che Yulin's heart. He felt utterly defeated by Lin Chen.
"However, some people's fathers are no good either. They think that just because they have some power, they can vent their anger on the weak? Be careful, heaven is watching what people do."
Lin Chen's cryptic words left the students with endless room for imagination. They began to speculate whether the Che Yulin family also had some unknown secrets.
Che Yulin asked instinctively, "What did you say? What do you mean by venting your anger on the weak?"
Lin Chen didn't speak, but just looked at Che Yulin with a cold smile. His eyes seemed to have seen through all of Che Yulin's secrets and weaknesses.
Che Yulin felt a pang of panic. He remembered something his father had once mentioned. There was a welfare home on the outskirts of the county town, and a company developing a golf course had its eye on the land. So they collaborated with Che Yulin's father, using coercion and bribery to demolish the welfare home.
Could it be... that Lin Chen was referring to? Is he the child from the orphanage?
Che Yulin felt a wave of weakness wash over him, but he knew he had to fight back. Because they were in a classroom, if he couldn't effectively retaliate against Lin Chen, he would be shooting himself in the foot.
However, Lin Chen never actually considered Che Yulin as an opponent. Compared to Lin Yiming, Lin Ruoyue, and their group, Che Yulin was far too low-level and not worthy of being his opponent at all.
Lin Chen's attention was still on Ning Jiaqi beside him. He knew she was still angry with him, and he didn't know how to coax her.
"Lin Chen, you can slander me, but you can't insult my father! My father is incredibly powerful..." Che Yulin's voice trembled with helplessness. He knew he had completely lost his advantage in front of Lin Chen.
"That's right, he really is amazing. Amazing enough that in order to help a group of rich and powerful people build a golf course, he could lead a bunch of thugs to cause trouble at welfare homes every day, and even lay hands on innocent children. Your old man is really 'amazing'!"
Upon hearing this, Che Yulin's cheeks instantly turned bright red, and his eyes began to dart around, appearing somewhat flustered.
"You...you..." Che Yulin's face was deathly pale as he stared at Lin Chen in disbelief. He knew, of course, that the forced demolition of the orphanage was illegal, but because they had powerful backers, the orphanage's director, Wang Nanshan, couldn't do anything about it.
Now that Lin Chen has exposed him in public, Che Yulin still feels extremely ashamed, even though he wasn't directly involved.
At this moment, all eyes in the class were focused on Lin Chen and Che Yulin, as if they were expressing with their eyes that they had understood the truth of the matter.
Che Yulin, the father of their classmate, could actually do something as immoral as forcibly demolishing an orphanage? For money, he has even lost his basic morality!
Moreover, they showed no remorse whatsoever and even attempted to use such shameless means to attack Lin Chen.
"How can there be such a shameless person in this world?" This was the thought in most people's minds. Only then did Che Yulin notice that the atmosphere around him had changed.
"No, how could my father do such a thing! Lin Chen, don't talk nonsense, what you're saying is all nonsense!" Che Yulin explained urgently, this explanation was for the people around him to hear, but his expression at this moment was more like admitting his mistake.
His face was deathly pale. Looking at the surrounding classmates, the contemptuous glances he received nearly drove him to the brink of collapse. The whispered gossips felt like countless silver needles piercing his heart.
Fortunately, the school bell rang at that moment, saving him from his predicament.
However, even after class started, his despicable image had already taken hold of him. He returned to his seat and found that none of his classmates, those who were usually on good terms with him, were willing to comfort him or even speak to him. He was isolated.
He had no interest in fighting Lin Chen for a seat now. He could only slink back to Lu Han's side. And that shameless Lu Han was still comforting him with her delicate fingers, telling him that the world was ruled by the rich, that demolishing an orphanage was nothing, and that the lives of the poor were nothing!
However, before Lu Han could finish speaking, he suddenly felt something hit his chest, slamming him from his seat onto the blackboard behind him!
"Ouch—!" After a scream, Lu Han fell to the ground, looking utterly soaked and disheveled. It was Lin Chen who had done it; if it weren't for the fact that this was a classroom, he would have loved to beat this sissy to a pulp!
While Lin Chen and Che Yulin were confronting each other, two women were actually secretly investigating.
Ning Jiaqi was slightly shocked after learning about the welfare home, and hurriedly took out her phone to check the news about the welfare home in the county that had been forcibly demolished.
Lin Ruoyan had arrived earlier and had been eavesdropping outside the door. Her purpose in coming to the school was to learn about Lin Chen's past. After learning about the orphanage and the forced demolition, she immediately began to investigate.
"Teacher, teacher, someone hit me! It hurts so much..."
With the help of her classmates, Lu Han finally managed to get up from the ground, but felt as if her body was about to fall apart. Lin Ruoyan, after quickly checking the information, composed herself and slowly walked in.
"Who hit you, Lu Han?" she asked, feigning concern.
"I don't know either!" Lu Han replied innocently.
