Chapter 93
Hao Ren, who was taking off the harness, didn't notice Xie Wanjun's expression amongst the crowd. He slowly walked to Huang Xujie and pointed his finger at the white speakerphone by the table. "We just agreed on..." he started to speak.
"When did we agree on anything?" Huang Xujie stared at Hao Ren with a look so cold that it could cut through human bodies.
Hao Ren embarra.s.sed him twice in front of so many people. Therefore, Huang Xujie, who valued his reputation a lot, would be willing to die if he could cut Hao Ren into 18 pieces now.
Xie Yujia saw that Hao Ren was walking to Huang Xujie and thought they were going to fight. Therefore, she hastily ran over to Hao Ren with his jacket still in her hands.
Xie Wanjun was just about to leave, and he stopped as he noticed the change in the situation. Hao Ren's safety was nothing to him, but he couldn't leave his sister behind.
Huang Xujie's anger decreased by half when he saw Xie Yujia, especially when he noticed Xie Wanjun, who stood out from the crowd, staring at him. He didn't dare to make any impulsive moves; at least he dared not yell at Xie Yujia.
Maybe others were not aware of Xie Yujia's status, he as one of the influential person in school knew exactly what her background was. No one at school dared to get in her brother, Xie Wanjun's way.
Even Lin Li, who considered herself to be the most popular girl in the school and didn't care about other girls' existence, would keep some distance from Xie Yujia. It was because she learned from Huang Xujie that Xie Yujia's older brother was Xie Wanjun, the Captain of the school basketball team!
"What's the matter?" Xie Yujia asked Huang Xujie when she saw Hao Ren's slightly irritated expression.
She and Huang Xujie kind of knew each other since they were both a part of the Student Council.
"Your cla.s.smate isn't satisfied with the prizes he won; he is also trying to interfere with my club's management," Huang Xujie tried hard to suppress his anger and said in an upset tone.
"I don't care about the prize. However, you need to clarify your club's charges to the freshmen," Hao Ren said to him lightly.
The crowd circled the three as they saw the conflict between Hao Ren and Huang Xujie after the match.
"What charges? It's 200 yuan to enroll," Huang Xujie insisted when he saw more people getting closer.
"Alright, I'll say it if you won't," Hao Ren nodded as he walked to the table to grab the bullhorn.
Shoo! Huang Xujie reached out his arm in anger and tried to stop Hao Ren.
Pa! Hao Ren was equally upset.
Even though Huang Xujie was strong, his strength was nothing compared to Hao Ren's. After all, Hao Ren had to carry 100 kilograms around on his wrists every day.
Huang Xujie immediately got pushed aside, and he almost fell.
Hao Ren quickly picked up the bullhorn, turned it on, and said to the crowd, "Whoever is considering joining the Rock Climbing Club, listen carefully. The fee you are paying today is only the enrollment fee, and it does not include the fee you have to pay a week later. Not only that, the training and equipment will be an extra charge as well!"
"I thought the 200 yuan would cover everything!"
"We have to buy our own equipment? I thought the club is going to provide it for us."
Sure enough, those who just registered and those who were going to register started to discuss.
"It's none of your business!" Huang Xujie dashed over.
He whipped out his fist and aimed it at Hao Ren's forehead. However, it was stopped by a giant hand.
He turned back and saw Xie Wanjun staring at him angrily from above with eyes wide open. Xie Wanjun was grasping onto his arm with the palm that was twice the size of an average person.
"Brother Jun, he injured your basketball team members, and you are still helping him?" Huang Xujie took his arm back as he asked.
"That's between him and me, and I'll deal with that later. I'm not happy with you charging students with all these extra fees as well," Xie Wanjun said.
This was the first time Hao Ren heard Xie Wanjun talk and looked at him from such a close distance. Xie Wanjun's deep voice had an overwhelming sense of power, and those who didn't obey would be playing with fire.
"I don't want to join this Rock Climbing Club anymore. Can I get a refund?" a freshman asked Hao Ren timidly.
"Ask him," Hao Ren pointed at Lu Bo, who was the a.s.sistant Captain of the club.
Lu Bo could do nothing but nod at this moment.
Then, a couple of students who had just registered for the club got their refund one by one. They thought the enrolment fee was all it took to attend the Rock Climbing Club and had no idea that there would be a large number of charges to follow. An official set of rock climbing equipment, for example, would cost thousands; not a lot of students could afford that!
"It's almost time! Let's get back to cla.s.s," Hao Ren said after the issue had been taken care of as he wiped off the sweat on his forehead.
"Ok, let's go!" Zhao Jiayi was glad to see Hao Ren venting his anger, and he didn't want to stick around any longer after this was done.
Hao Ren glimpsed at Huang Xujie, who was so upset that his eyes turned red, and ignored him. He simply took his jacket from Xie Yujia and walked out of there.
"Hey! You forgot your prize!" Xie Wanjun said in his deep voice. He grasped the set of black equipment and threw it at Hao Ren.
Hao Ren caught it in his hands and tossed it into the air twice. Then, he threw it back to Xie Wanjun and said, "I don't need it!"
Xie Wanjun was over two meters tall and was strong like a bull. He was forced back half a step by the 50-pound equipment that was thrown to him. He thought to himself, "This guy has pretty strong arm strength!"
"Hao Ren!" Xie Yujia jogged over to catch up with him.
"What's the matter, Cla.s.s President?" Hao Ren turned around reluctantly.
This Cla.s.s President was perfect besides her interest in controlling too many things. If she was like this already, she would definitely be a strict wife after she gets married.
However, she was very nice to all her cla.s.smates.
"You forgot these bracelets," she handed them over to Hao Ren.
Hao Ren then suddenly remembered the Mount Tai Bracelets he just left beside the wall. Hao Ren quickly took them from her smooth hands and put them on his wrists.
"If I had forgotten these bracelets and had lost them..." Hao Ren s.h.i.+vered as he thought of the necklace around his neck.
Although he had never tasted the feeling of the tightening necklace, he knew it wouldn't be the best feeling in the world. It was from Su Han after all, and it was no cheap Dharma treasure. She would never leave a life behind if she had decided to kill; that was her personality.
"Thank you, Cla.s.s President!" Hao Ren thanked her sincerely this time.
Xie Yujia noticed how much Hao Ren valued these seemingly ordinary bracelets, and she also caught him subconsciously touching the silver necklace. Then, she realized that the bracelets and the necklace seemed like a set.
"Are these gifts from Su Han as well?" Xie Yujia thought to herself.
"Cla.s.s President, you must have cla.s.s in the afternoon too. Go get some lunch before it's too late," Hao Ren laughed happily and said to her. Afterward, he walked away with his arm around Zhao Jiayi's neck.
Xie Yujia looked at Hao Ren as he walked off; she wondered if his girlfriend was really Su Han.
She didn't come to herself until Ma Lina came over and nudged her.
