Chapter 332: Chapter 332: Lan Yudie’s Worries

“I’m going too!” Zhang Dagou gripped the steel rebar and said, “Damn, I’m going to show up at their doorstep and let them see what I’m made of.”

“You guys are insane, completely insane! Are you all mad?” Liu Bin anxiously looked at the group and then said, “Don’t you know that Dao Meng is full of cold-blooded demons? They’re the type to devour people without leaving any bones behind. And you dare to go looking for trouble with them?”

“Zhang Feng, Da Gu, I can go by myself,” Xiao Han patted their shoulders and said, “You don’t need to follow me. It’s too dangerous.”

“Xiao Han, we’re brothers!” Zhang Feng’s tone was somber, as he solemnly looked at Xiao Han and said, “If you consider me your brother, then take me with you. Even though I’m not as skilled in kung fu as you, I can still take on three to five guys.”

“I can do it too!” Zhang Dagou thumped his chest and said, “I’m not as good at kung fu as you guys, but I’m tall and strong, I can be a human shield!”

“Damn!” Liu Bin listened to this and said, “I… I won’t go, my kung fu isn’t good, and I don’t have much meat on me, going there would be like asking to die!”

“You stay in the dormitory and stay put!” Zhang Feng glanced at Liu Bin and said, “If we don’t call you within two hours, you help us call the police, and by the way, help collect our bodies!”

Hiss…

Lan Yudie took a sharp breath; she couldn’t believe what she was seeing in these young kids, all several years younger than her. They showed not a trace of panic or fear about such a life-and-death matter. Instead, they seemed extremely calm and composed, even making light conversation.

“You… Have you all gone mad?” Lan Yudie looked at them in shock and then said, “Don’t you realize this is a matter of life and death?”

“Teacher Lan.” Zhang Feng glanced at Lan Yudie and said, “In life, some things are light as feathers, and others are heavier than Mount Tai. To live for my brothers, to die for my brothers, that is Zhang Feng’s life motto. Since I’ve made a brother like Xiao Han, I’ll always treat him like family. Now that he’s being hunted, how can I just stand by and do nothing?”

“Heh, I won’t make big speeches,” Da Gu chuckled and said, “Anyway, I recognize Xiao Han as my brother. Last time Xiao Mei was bullied, it was Xiao Han who helped me. Now that Xiao Han is in trouble, I will not back down!”

Seeing their determined expressions, Xiao Han felt a subtle touch of emotion in his heart.

With brothers like these, one has no regrets in life.

“Damn!” Liu Bin quickly stood up and said, “With such righteous words spoken, I can’t stay behind either. What’s death? In eighteen years, I’ll be a hero again.”

Liu Bin was moved by the words of Zhang Feng and Da Gu. That’s why, in a burst of passion, he stood up and boasted boldly.

“So the keyboard warrior gets pumped up too, huh?” Da Gu slapped Liu Bin on the shoulder.

“Don’t underestimate me!” Liu Bin gave Da Gu a stern look and said, “I know kung fu too.”

“Haha…” Everyone burst into laughter.

The heavy atmosphere finally lightened a bit.

“Let’s go,” Xiao Han said.

Lan Yudie quickly picked up the scattered items off the floor, and they all took a taxi away from the scene, heading back to school to plan their next move.

……………..

Back at school, Lan Yudie still felt a lingering fear.

Xiao Han told Zhang Feng and the others to go back to the dormitory first while he accompanied Lan Yudie to the teachers’ apartments.

In the teachers’ apartment building, many teachers noticed the intimacy between Lan Yudie and Xiao Han as they headed upstairs. In fact, the news about Xiao Han and Lan Yudie had been the talk of the town for the past two days, known by everyone. Hence, when people saw Xiao Han and Lan Yudie going upstairs, it wasn’t considered strange. They just whispered among themselves.

“Shameless.”

“Truly without shame, to get involved with a male student.”

The teachers behind them all gossiped as if Lan Yudie had done something worth the wrath of heaven. Of course, there were also many teachers who approved of Lan Yudie and Xiao Han’s relationship. The teachers who supported Lan Yudie were mostly young female teachers.

“Teacher Lan, you’re back?” A female teacher walked towards them with a warm greeting.

“Yes,” Lan Yudie nodded.

“What… What’s wrong with you?” The female teacher curiously asked, “You seem a bit off, don’t you?”

“No… Nothing!” Lan Yudie quickly shook her head and said, “I’m fine, just got a bit of a scare, that’s all!”

“Xiao Han, you’re not very good at looking after people, are you?” The female teacher said with a chuckle, “How can you let our goddess get startled like that?”

“I…” Xiao Han was visibly embarrassed; if it weren’t for the fact that he’d cleaned the blood off himself earlier, perhaps the female teacher would have been the one to jump in fright.

“Alright, take her upstairs,” the female teacher said with a smile, “and don’t bully her, okay?”

After speaking, the female teacher went downstairs and left.

Xiao Han escorted Lan Yudie into the apartment. Lan Yudie’s room wasn’t large, but it was warmly decorated. Although small, it was very comfortable. The lights in the room were bright, and the surrounding walls were adorned with many cute illustrations, making it look very pretty.

Lan Yudie sat on the bed with her legs curled up.

Xiao Han prepared her some instant coffee on the side to help her stay alert. Watching Xiao Han, Lan Yudie, who had been silent for a while, suddenly spoke up, “Xiao Han, have you… always been involved in fighting and killing?”

“No,” Xiao Han shook his head.

“But, from the way you acted today, it doesn’t seem like it was your first time!” Lan Yudie said.

Today, Xiao Han’s performance didn’t seem like that of a first-timer at all. He was calm, composed, and every move was aimed at overpowering the enemy, creating suspense at each turn. Moreover, Xiao Han looked quite ferocious and appeared unusually mature. He exhibited none of the fear and terror that a student should have.

If it had been any other student, they would probably have been scared to tears on the spot. Let alone a student, even she, as a teacher, was already frightened to the point of being weak-kneed, and her body was trembling as if it was beyond her control. Not only was Xiao Han not afraid, he had even turned around to comfort her.

Now that she thought about it, Lan Yudie always felt that something was off.

“I just think that instead of being afraid, it’s better to confront the other person!” Xiao Han said earnestly, “I know my own strength, and these people are no match for me. Plus, they are arrogant and careless. That’s why I had even more opportunities to exploit.”

Lan Yudie was briefly stunned, then frowned and said, “Have you considered that if you accidentally went too far, you might face death?”

“But if I don’t resist, I’m going to die anyway!” Xiao Han looked at Lan Yudie earnestly.

“Promise me, don’t do this again,” Lan Yudie pleaded with him.

“I promise you,” Xiao Han nodded and said, “However, if I don’t start trouble, others will. When you’re in Jianghu, you can’t control your own fate.”

“Damn it, is this Jianghu?” Lan Yudie glared at Xiao Han and said, “This is a society governed by law. You should call the police, learn to use the law to protect yourself.”

“The law only protects the upper class, not us ordinary folks,” Xiao Han said helplessly.

“Trust me, the law is fair,” Lan Yudie, who had been instilled with legalist thought since she was young, insisted. The ruling class had continually imbued the masses with such ideology from elementary school onward. Of course, it was true—to an extent. In this society, fairness was only relative. When a case involved common folk and the upper class, the law naturally favored the upper class. There was no doubt about this—not just in China, but in Western societies as well.

“I believe the law is fair,” Xiao Han nodded.

Lan Yudie hugged Xiao Han, and they snuggled together.

Xiao Han kissed Lan Yudie’s forehead and then said, “Get some rest early, don’t worry too much.”

“Okay, you too,” Lan Yudie nodded.

After ensuring Lan Yudie was comforted, Xiao Han turned and left the teachers’ apartment. Since this was the teachers’ residence and Lan Yudie was a woman, it wasn’t appropriate for him, a man, to stay too long. It wouldn’t be good for Lan Yudie’s reputation at school either.

Returning to the dormitory.

Inside the dormitory, Zhang Feng and the others were discussing strategies.

“I can make a gun,” Liu Bin said seriously, “I made a crude firearm when I was a kid, using gunpowder to shoot scraps of metal. It could kill a rabbit at a distance of ten meters.”

“Damn, I bet that thing could barely kill a dog, right?” Zhang Dagou retorted.

“I downloaded some handgun blueprints from a website on gun-making while I was abroad,” Liu Bin hurriedly said, “We could take the blueprints and find several mold factories to produce the parts for us. What do you think?”@@novelbin@@

“How are we going to get the bullets?” Zhang Dagou asked.

“Damn, you think we’re really going to shoot bullets?” Liu Bin responded irritably to Zhang Dagou, “Just use gunpowder, and put nails in the barrel. It’s lethal enough. Much more powerful than an air gun.”

“Isn’t this illegal?” Zhang Feng asked timidly.

“Do you think using a machete is not illegal?” Liu Bin snorted coldly.

At that moment, Xiao Han came in from outside. The three immediately gathered around him, and Liu Bin repeated his idea to Xiao Han. Xiao Han hesitated briefly and then said, “It’s not that it’s impossible. A gun can be used for self-defense. In dire situations, it can help us retreat.”

“Exactly,” Liu Bin nodded in agreement, “We shouldn’t reveal our guns unless absolutely necessary.”

The next day, Liu Bin took the blueprints and visited several mold factories in the provincial city, hoping they would help make a few sets of molds. The parts were relatively simple, but because the quantities were small, the cost was rather high. Liu Bin didn’t mind the expense, spending more than twenty thousand yuan to get a few sets of imitation guns made.

“Is this a firearm structure?” a veteran craftsman glanced at Liu Bin.

“Stop talking nonsense. Making guns is illegal!” Liu Bin felt a tremor in his heart upon hearing that.

“Hehe, plenty of people from the black market come to us to make such things,” the craftsman chuckled, then added, “There’s nothing shameful about it. However, there’s an issue with your design. Let me refine it for you, so it’s easier to load gunpowder and steel nails later on. Otherwise, it might explode.”

“Uh…” Liu Bin immediately nodded and said, “Thank you very much.”
