92: Chapter 92 Chen Qi's marriage proposal resulted in a complete failure.
"If you have something to say, speak."
When Chen Qi said he was Chen Qi from the Chen Family of the Twelve Families, Teacher Su had already guessed who he was.
Although in her memory this was their first meeting, when she had just arrived at the school, Chen Qi's notoriety and his deeds had already spread throughout the school, making it hard for her not to know him.
"Third Uncle, how have you been lately?"
Although the Twelve Families all wished they could kill each other and become the sole dominant power.
On the surface, however, the Twelve Families acted as if they were putting on a show, pretending to be united in front of the world to maintain the stability of the Federation.
The annual gathering of the Twelve Families was just a show.
Those who attended were Family members and Juniors. Ostensibly, it was for the Juniors to build connections, but in reality, it was to see what kind of figures the other side had among their Juniors and to set targets for their own.
By giving the Juniors goals and a sense of crisis, they would naturally strive to improve, and the Family could remain prosperous for a long time.
It was customary for peers to address each other as brothers. Since Chen Qi and Teacher Su were of the same generation, Teacher Su could not find fault with him calling Su Jingzhou "Third Uncle."
"My father is doing well. Does the matter you want to discuss have anything to do with my father?"
"You're so smart, you guessed it right away. But don't worry, it's a good thing."
"Whether it's a good thing or a bad thing, it's useless to tell me. I don't get involved in Family matters."
Chen Qi nodded, but he did not give up.
"I know that in your Family, men are in charge. Actually, it's the same in our Family, except for my great-grandmother. But what I want to talk about today is different, because for you, it's also a good thing."
Teacher Su suddenly stopped in her tracks and looked at Chen Qi.
Chen Qi laughed and said, "What's wrong? Don't tell me you guessed it again?"
"Sorry, I'm not interested, and I don't want to know. Also, you are a student now; I hope you can prioritize your studies."
As she spoke, she saw Yun Zhuo in the distance, and a hint of tenderness couldn't help but flash in her eyes.
Chen Qi didn't notice and continued to laugh, "Then what if I go to propose to Third Uncle? You're still not interested?"
Teacher Su said expressionlessly, "Then go ahead."
She knew her own father. Given her talent, how could he possibly allow her to marry out of the Su Family? He would only accept a son-in-law.
With Chen Qi's status as the eldest grandson of the Chen Family, would he come to be a Live-in Son-in-law?
A dignified successor of the Chen Family—that's right, one of them; the Chen Family didn't just have Chen Qi in this generation, but he was the most special one.
For someone like him to go and be a Live-in Son-in-law for someone else, such a shameful thing—even if he were willing, his Chen Family wouldn't be.
"Teacher Su, if I said you were happy too soon, would you be angry?"
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, I want to go to your house to be a Live-in Son-in-law. Don't you think this is a good thing for Third Uncle? Would he be so happy that he marries both you sisters to me?"
"Are you sure?"
"Teacher Su, don't look at me like that. What I'm saying is all true. As for my side of the Chen Family, they really can't control me, because my father is named Chen Gang."
Teacher Su was slightly taken aback.
Chen Gang was a notorious cuckold-maker among the Twelve Families. On the surface, he was a man who doted on his wife, but in secret... forget it, Teacher Su felt disgusted just thinking about it.
This was no secret among the Twelve Families. There were even rumors that his son was an egg borrowed from someone else's hen, and not his own biological child at all.
What did Chen Qi mean by voluntarily saying his father was Chen Gang now? Did he already know about this? So he had leverage to threaten his father? No, it should be bargaining chips to threaten the entire Chen Family.
Although Chen Gang's affairs were no secret among the Twelve Families, it ultimately concerned the face of a Family, and at the same time, no one could produce evidence.
Because legend had it that the locations of the gatherings Chen Gang held were very secretive, and he would kill everyone who attended the gathering afterwards.
Exposing this matter, apart from forming a blood feud with the Chen Family, would have little impact on the Chen Family without evidence.
But if it were exposed by someone from the Chen Family themselves, the effect would be different. And other Families would certainly be happy to see it happen.
If this was really the case, and if Chen Qi really wanted to marry into the Su Family, then Xiao Zhuo would have absolutely no chance of winning against him.
Just as Teacher Su was in a state of turmoil, Yun Zhuo walked up to the two of them.
"Yo, Teacher Su, what a coincidence that you're here too."
Teacher Su was startled and looked up at Yun Zhuo, "You, how are you here?"
Yun Zhuo laughed and said, "If I said I was lost, would you believe me?"
"Don't wander around since you just arrived at school. I'll see you off; I was heading home anyway."
"Wait a moment." Chen Qi smiled and looked at Yun Zhuo, "Kid, do you know me?"
"You are Chen Bo's cousin. Back when I beat Chen Bo like a dead dog, you were watching from afar. I thought you would come up to avenge him. As it turns out, Teacher Su, guess what? He actually ran away."
Upon hearing this, Chen Qi actually chuckled, "I didn't have a War Princess at that time. Trying to avenge him would have been throwing my life away, right? Wouldn't you agree? But this time..."
Chen Qi placed his hand on Yun Zhuo's shoulder and laughed, "It seems your War Princess isn't by your side today either, right? Oh right, War Princesses can be summoned. Have you learned how yet, kid? Come on, show her to me. Otherwise, you won't have the chance."
Yun Zhuo suddenly looked up and raised his leg. The moment his eyes met Chen Qi's gaze, his knee had already struck Chen Qi's crotch.
Chen Qi's eyes, which had been playful just a moment ago, instantly widened!
"Oh..." Chen Qi's entire body instantly flew into the air, "F***... you..."
By the time the word "mother" left his mouth, he had already been thrown fifty meters away.
The school had rules: private fights were prohibited on campus. If a conflict arose that could only be resolved by force, it had to be settled in the arena. The Conflict Mediation Department was created for this very purpose.
But what kind of person was Chen Qi? Just last year, he played a War Princess to death at school—that was a human life, and she was even a Low Grade Heaven Rank one—yet he was only punished with a one-year suspension. Expecting someone like him to follow the rules with you?
Yun Zhuo's brain was not water-logged. Since that was the case, the only option was to strike first. Regardless of what the consequences would be, if he couldn't even get past the current hurdle, he had no right to think about the consequences.
Teacher Su was stunned. Chen Qi had just flown past her eyes. With her ability, she could have completely grabbed him and stopped him from flying so far. But she had been stunned by shock.
In the roadside greenery fifty meters away, Chen Qi's body was curled up like a shrimp, his blood-red eyeballs almost popping out of their sockets. He had some grass clippings in his mouth, which he had accidentally bitten onto when he was rolling on the ground earlier.
Many students around had seen it, especially the moment Chen Qi fell; he had smashed quite a few flowers and trees, and after landing, he had bounced and rolled on the ground twice. With such a big commotion, it was hard for the people around not to know.
But now, they all looked as if a pause button had been pressed. With their mouths slightly agape, they all looked at Chen Qi on the ground in shock.
Originally, there were a few people who wanted to come over and see what was going on. But once they saw clearly that it was Chen Qi, not a single person dared to approach.
Because this guy was temperamental and a bit neurotic. If you kindly went over to help him up, or buttered him up, he might get angry from embarrassment and kill you first.
In any case, at the Imperial Capital Martial Arts University, he, Chen Qi, had truly killed someone, and in the end, it was all over with just a one-year suspension. And now, he was back today. Who on earth beat him like this! Did they not know his surname was Chen? The Chen of the Chen Family of the Twelve Families.
