Rebirth from the Ashes

The straight face Yu Yuanxi had on started to show cracks. His arms on both sides clenched into tight fists while his chest heaved dramatically.

“You must have accumulated quite a bill at the hospital. Get on your knees and pick up my pen.” Fixating on the young man before her, Chen Bingbing let out a sarcastic grin. “Otherwise, I’ll make a call right now for the hospital staff to remove your grandma’s breathing tube.”

She adored watching him be humiliated.

It was a great feeling of achievement to trample over Yu Yuanxi, especially when he was so good-looking.

Straightening his back, Yu Yuanxi erected like a solid pine tree. He only saw the ugliness of evil spirits in each and every smug faces.

They could not be called human, rather evil spirits!

“Kneel!” Chen Bingbing impatiently pressed further while whipping out the phone as a warning. “I’m going to dial the number now if you’re not kneeling.”

Yu Yuanxi tauntingly looked around the room of a jeering crowd like they were a bunch of clowns before getting on his knees and picking up the pen with his lean fingers.

Even though this was an extremely lowly gesture, he executed it with dignity.

His body may be yielding but the fact that Yu Yuanxi had a backbone was clear to see.

Another round of boos and hoots quickly ensued. Someone in the crowd threw two coins amid the conceited snickers which crashed onto Yu Yuanxi.

“Pick them up and take them to save that grandma of yours who’s a foot in the grave.”

“If I have a say, your paupers can’t face the truth. Go meet your maker if you’re sick. Why admit yourself in the hospital or see a doctor if you have no money?”

“That’s right. What’s the point of seeing a doctor when you’re penniless? How much is your insignificant life worth!”

With bloodshot eyes, Yu Yuanxi tightened his grip around the pen in hand.

Crack! He folded the pen in half.

Before the delinquent students could react to it, Yu Yuan came at them swinging his fists like a madman.

It was total chaos in the classroom. A trapped beast pushed too far, Yu Yuanxi broke out of his cage and cried out with bloodshot eyes as instincts led him to grapple with his bullies.

The few people in the back in particular, who ran their mouths about his grandma, were attacked most viciously.

Having evacuated to a distance, Yu Qiubai glanced at the ice queen in the last row who remained oblivious to the outside world and only had her eyes on her book.

Tsk tsk. He thought Shen Xi thought differently about Yu Yuanxi since the incident at the restaurant the last time.

However, there was nothing special going on between them by the looks of it. It was as though no one was of importance to her.

Yu Yuanxi may appear cultured and carry the bearings of a scholar, but he was not to be underestimated when he was on a rampage. It took the effort of quite a few to restrain him before the same group, in turn, ganged up on him.

Yu Qiubai could feel the pain just by watching.

Tsk tsk. Don’t these idiots know? Everyone had a line that should not be crossed, that included Yu Yuanxi, who never fought back in the face of abuse from the entire school.

He never fought back simply because their physical abuse, snubs, and emotional abuse were not worth resisting against.

Yu Yuanxi ran amok and raised his fist, on the grounds that they struck a nerve in him. A nerve that should not be touched.

Standing there, Yu Qiubai took his time observing while waiting for Shen Xi to put a stop to the whole fiasco. Yet, she remained without a reaction.

Taking matters into his own hands, Yu Qiubai walked out of the classroom. He deliberately took a glance at Shen Xi before raising his voice. “Teacher, there’s a brawl in the classroom!”
