Chapter 97 - Jiang Prefecture
Large chapters, two as one.
Tong Kaide, the secretary of the county council, personally supervised the work of the judicial department. Within two days, all the evidence and the process of the case were all put into doc.u.ment form and reported to the court.Immediately after, the trial in Xu Mo"s case concluded three days later.
Ji Feng didn"t know the exact details, but Xu Mo was sentenced to fifteen years in prison. If he didn"t do well in the future, he would be imprisoned for the rest of his life.Xu Fu"s days were also not easy. Other than the rules and regulations of the system, there were also national laws that were waiting for him. However, these were not things that Ji Zhenhua and the rest needed to be concerned about.
Of course, this was also because in Ji Zhenhua"s eyes, the Xu father and son duo were not on the stage at all, so there was no need for him to face them head on. Otherwise, as long as Ji Zhenhua spoke, Xu Fu and his son would never be able to stand up again in this lifetime.On the other hand, Zhang Lei had always been muttering to himself, thinking that the punishment on Xu Mo wasn"t enough. In reality, it was no wonder that he would be so furious. If not for Ji Feng"s strength, Zhang Lei would have died in the entertainment city, or be beaten to death in the interrogation room. This was truly a feud between life and death!
If this was the case, no matter how Zhang Lei treated Xu Fu and his son, he wouldn"t go overboard.
However, in reality, Zhang Lei only had a bit of anger in his heart that he could not release. He was a bit frustrated, but in reality, he really had no interest in killing Xu Fu and his son. When facing a drowning dog, one might be able to give it a good beating. However, if one really wanted to compete with a drowning dog in terms of strength, that would truly be lowering one"s status.
Fortunately, the time for the college entrance examination"s results to be checked had pa.s.sed. Zhang Lei"s attention had been diverted away, and he no longer had the mood to compete with Xu Fu and his son.
In addition, Xiao Sumei still followed Ji Zhenhua back to the wedding hall. Although the two of them never formally married, they were not far off from it. After all, Xiao Sumei had left the day before her wedding. She had already been acknowledged by the Ji family"s old man and old lady.
Ji Feng was secretly happy that his mother had finally returned home.
In his opinion, so many years had pa.s.sed since the woman who had been his father. In fact, that was before he had met his mother. In truth, if he were to seriously calculate it, his father Ji Zhenhua had at most purposely concealed this matter.
Initially, Ji Feng was worried that he would bring his mother along if he were to go to university. Otherwise, not only would it be inconvenient for his mother to stay in Mang s.h.i.+ County alone, there would also be no guarantees for her safety.
She just said that if Xiao Sumei got sick, no one would be able to take her to the hospital.
Under such circ.u.mstances, how could Ji Feng possibly go to university without worrying?
So after taking care of Xu Fu"s business, under Ji Feng"s encouragement and Ji Zhenhua"s persuasion, Xiao Sumei went to Beijing. Of course, Ji Feng"s third uncle, Ji Zhenping, did not give up on persuading Ji Feng to return with him. However, he was rejected by Ji Feng.
Ji Feng had to go back, but it was definitely not now. At the very least, he would need to create a new career before heading to Beijing. Although his mother would not feel wronged following her father, Ji Feng knew that in such a big family, the most important thing was to have the confidence to not be looked down upon.Xiao Sumei"s confidence came from her husband and her son. Needless to say, as a middle-aged man with a high position, Ji Feng had to work even harder to make his mother proud.
However, this sort of pride was without the aid of a family!
Therefore, Ji Feng had persuaded Xiao Sumei to stay alone. Of course, in order to make Xiao Sumei feel at ease, Ji Feng lied that he was staying at Zhang Lei"s house during this period, but in reality, he was still staying in that small, shabby house.However, before Ji Zhenhua left, he asked Ji Feng for a cell phone. With regards to this, Ji Feng accepted it as a matter of course. He could not accept the family"s gift, but he would still accept his father"s kind intentions. Otherwise, he would not know what was good for him.
Ji Feng, on the other hand, did not know that the phone that Ji Zhenping had given him was for the military. It had a global positioning function. No matter where he was, Ji Zhenhua would be able to find him.
On the day that the scores could be checked, Zhang Lei and Tong Lei both arrived at Ji Feng"s house early in the morning. At this moment, Ji Feng received a call from Ji Zhenhua.
"Dad!" Ji Feng didn"t say much to begin with. He only shouted once before falling silent.
Ji Zhenhua, on the other hand, was in quite a good mood. He chuckled and said, "Feng"er, you did well in the exam. Rest a.s.sured, you can fill in the aspiration form."
Ji Feng immediately understood that his father must have checked his university entrance examination scores in advance. He laughed, "Dad, my score shouldn"t be low, right?"
During the college entrance exam, Ji Feng could try his best to perform. According to his estimation, his score should not be lower than 700 points. In the entire Central Plains Province, this result should not be that bad.Indeed, Ji Zhenhua"s majestic voice rang out, "732 points. He should be the science champion of Central Plains Province. Not bad!"
Ji Feng grinned as he suddenly thought of something. He hurriedly asked, "Father, what... What about Tong Lei"s results? And her brother Zhang Lei. "Ji Zhenhua laughed heartily. He knew that his son would definitely ask about his girlfriend"s results after asking about his results. As for whether Zhang Lei was asking about it along the way, he had no idea.
"Don"t worry, your little girlfriend did well in the exam and also pa.s.sed 700 points. It shouldn"t be a problem for her to pa.s.s any university in the country." Ji Zhenhua laughed, "As for that kid from Old Tong"s family … "His grades are a bit worse. I don"t think the two schools in Yan Jing have too high of a chance. However, since you are going to Jiang Prefecture, there should be no problem."
"That"s good, that"s good!" Ji Feng slightly smiled. He knew that Zhang Lei didn"t actually like going to Jiang Prefecture. He seemed to like Jiang-Zhe University more. It was said that there were many beautiful girls in the Jiang Prefecture.Ji Zhenhua encouraged his son a few more times before hanging up.
When Zhang Lei and Tong Lei arrived at Ji Feng"s house, he was preparing to leave.
"Hey, Madman." Zhang Lei greeted him, "I heard that you can call to check the results today. Have you checked?"
Ji Feng smiled, "Is there even a need to investigate?"
"That"s true!" Zhang Lei immediately shook his head and smiled, "This kind of thing is a small matter to you right now. Your family will definitely settle it for you."However, Tong Lei asked softly, "Ji Feng, did you really not investigate?"
"I checked it out and got 700 points just like you. There"s absolutely no problem going to Jiangzhou to attend university." Ji Feng laughed, "As for Lei Zi, going to Jiang Zhe should not be a problem, but, Lei Zi, why do you have to go to Jiang Zhe?"
"Didn"t I tell you, there are a lot of beauties there? The two of you are fighting pa.s.sionately right now, but we"re still single!" Zhang Lei rolled his eyes.Ji Feng and Tong Lei couldn"t help but laugh at the same time. As long as Zhang Lei was around, there would be plenty of laughter.
"Ji Feng, don"t worry about him. He"s like that!" Tong Lei was wearing a pink T-s.h.i.+rt and a light blue denim skirt, as well as a pair of crystal clear sandals. She seemed very elegant, making Ji Feng couldn"t help but take a few more glances. If Zhang Lei wasn"t here, he probably wouldn"t be able to resist hugging Tong Lei and kissing her hard.
As if sensing the meaning behind Ji Feng"s gaze, Tong Lei couldn"t help but recall the scene at the cinema. Her pretty face blushed red as she shyly looked at Ji Feng and then averted her gaze, appearing very shy."Alright, alright. I said that the two of you don"t have any feelings for each other here. Don"t you know that I"m still alone?" Zhang Lei interrupted their gazes, "Let"s hurry up and go to school. Today, we"re going to have to do some volunteer work." A large number of beauties from the Jiang and Zhe provinces are still waiting for me. "
Ji Feng and Tong Lei were instantly speechless.
However, when Ji Feng and the other two arrived at the academy, they were immediately stunned. In such a large school, not a single person could be seen. It was as if everyone had already disappeared."Where did everyone go? "What"s going on?" Ji Feng was stunned.
"Who knows!" Zhang Lei rolled his eyes, "I think all of them did too poorly and are too embarra.s.sed to come, right?""What are you talking about?" Tong Lei patted him and suddenly exclaimed, "Look, those people seem to be in the reception room!"
Ji Feng and Zhang Lei turned to look, and they immediately realized that there seemed to be a huge crowd gathered in the reception hall, and there seemed to be quite a few people there.
"Let"s go over and take a look!" Ji Feng said.The three of them quickly arrived at the entrance of the reception room. Immediately, they discovered that the reception room was packed with students. There wasn"t even a place to step in, let alone enter.
"Hey, brother, what"s going on? Is someone paying in the reception room? " Zhang Lei patted the student closest to him and asked with a smile.
"What money are you giving? We can check the scores today. Everyone is anxiously checking the scores!" The student replied impatiently, "Furthermore, the school has given each key university an estimate. This is the key to the exam. Alright, I have to hurry and squeeze in. Don"t disturb me anymore!""Hai, the college entrance exam..." Zhang Lei shook his head slightly. "They were taught to kill people."
"Never mind, I"ll just use my phone to check!" Zhang Lei shook his head slightly. He took out his cell phone from his pocket and dialed the hot line for the college entrance examination. "Give me your ticket number …"
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Ji Feng. "Alright, didn"t I already tell you? Our scores have already been checked. It definitely won"t be a problem if we apply to the school we want to attend."
"That"s right. Let"s just go to the teacher in charge to fill in the matriculation!" Tong Lei said softly.
Compared to checking the scores, filling in the volunteer card was much easier. This was because in the office, almost no one filled in the volunteer card. Presumably, all the students were considering applying for a university and a major that suited them the most.
Inside the office, Ji Feng couldn"t help but feel disappointed when he saw Xiao Yu Xuan. However, when he saw the incomparably elegant and beautiful Tong Lei beside him, Ji Feng immediately suppressed the traces of love in his heart and stopped thinking about it.
"Yi?" Zhang Lei, how come you can fill in all of the universities in Jiang Prefecture? " Upon seeing Zhang Lei"s aspiration card, Ji Feng was taken aback."I think we still can"t go to Hangzhou!" Zhang Lei chuckled and said in a low voice, "Crazy, although we can still catch up to girls with money, these kinds of girls are all sn.o.bbish and uninteresting."
"What do you mean?" Ji Feng didn"t know how this had anything to do with chasing after girls.
"That amazing billiard technique of yours, this bro hasn"t even learned it yet!" Zhang Lei chuckled, "Moreover, I feel like you also know something else. If I were to learn all of these things, wouldn"t it be much easier to chase after girls?"
Ji Feng laughed involuntarily. However, he also knew that Zhang Lei definitely had his reasons for deciding to apply to the Jiang Prefecture.
In actuality, the reason why Zhang Lei wanted to apply to a university in Jiang Prefecture was very simple. Although he liked making friends, Ji Feng had already followed Tong Lei to Jiang Prefecture, so it was naturally not good for him to go to Hangzhou alone. Furthermore, Tong Kade had also instructed him to try to build a good relations.h.i.+p with Ji Feng.However, Zhang Lei knew that his goal was different from reality.
Moreover, his relations.h.i.+p with Ji Feng was not just that of an ordinary friend, but also that of his best brother. Plus, going to Jiang Prefecture was actually quite good. After all, Jiang Prefecture was only two to three hours" drive away from Hangzhou.
"That"s great! Since we are all in the same city, it will be much more convenient for us in the future!" Ji Feng smiled faintly.
… ….In the following two months, although he was on vacation, Ji Feng did not idle around. He lived a very fulfilling life.
Usually, other than going out shopping with Tong Lei, Ji Feng would spend the rest of his time strolling around the lottery store in the county, earning some pocket money.
In the evening, Ji Feng began to study the latest knowledge, which he was most interested in — computer technology!In the Gamma Star System, computers had long been fully intelligent and had advanced in technology. Even though Ji Feng didn"t know much about computer technology, he had only come into contact with computers in the computer room at school. He didn"t even go to an internet cafe normally.
However, Ji Feng knew one thing, and that was that in the current world, there was no such thing as an intelligent computer. It was said that artificial intelligence was only a subject of research.In fact, even Ji Feng knew that the technology of the Gama System was much more advanced than that of Earth"s by a few decades. In such a situation, Ji Feng would naturally be more serious in his studies.
Ji Feng was interested in computers. Actually, one of the main reasons was that he had the most opportunities in the computer industry. If he wanted to start a business, he would have to start from the computer industry.Ji Feng had learned most of the knowledge in the super training system. What he lacked was only chance.
Two months pa.s.sed just like this, and it was finally September. Ji Feng"s studies also came to an end. At this time, he, Tong Lei and Zhang Lei finally boarded the train to Jiang Prefecture.
… ….
On September 5th, on a train heading to Jiang Prefecture, Ji Feng and Tong Lei sat side by side, while Zhang Lei sat opposite of them. Watching the relations.h.i.+p between Ji Feng and Tong Lei from time to time, he finally couldn"t help but close his eyes and lie down on the table in front of them, pretending to be asleep.
Ji Feng and Tong Lei couldn"t help but look at each other and smile, then they leaned together and whispered.
"Ji Feng, once we enter university, we won"t be together anymore..." There was reluctance in Tong Lei"s tone. Ji Feng was applying for a major in economics at Jiang Prefecture Union University, while Tong Lei was applying for a major in foreign languages. The two of them weren"t in the same school, so they wouldn"t see each other for too long.
As for Zhang Lei, I heard that the foreign language department has the most beauties, so he directly went to the foreign language inst.i.tute. But I never would have thought that this guy would actually be able to score more than 690 points and enter the best joint university in Jiang Prefecture. At the same time, he is also one of the top universities in China.Ji Feng smiled, "Don"t worry, I have so much time in the university, I can"t possibly have enough time to meet him. "Don"t worry, in the future I promise that I will at least come to see you once a week. Is this alright?"
"That"s what you said!"
Hearing this, Tong Lei"s face lit up and a sweet smile flashed across her eyes: "If you don"t come looking for me in a week, then I"ll go date other boys!"
Ji Feng couldn"t help but laugh, "If you dare to date another boy..."Before he could finish, Tong Lei interrupted him: "Then what will happen to you?"
"Me?" Ji Feng chuckled, "I"ll beat that man up!""Cluck, cluck …" Seeing Ji Feng brandis.h.i.+ng his fist a few times, Tong Lei started to giggle. Her bell-like laughter attracted the attention of the other youths.
"Hey, are you guys going to Jiangzhou to attend university as well?" One of the youths couldn"t help but ask.
Ji Feng had long noticed these young people, especially that oily and powder faced young man. The moment they got on the carriage, that young man"s attention was focused on Tong Lei.
However, they were still youngsters, and upon hearing their question, Ji Feng could only nod his head, "Yeah, you guys too?"
"That"s right!"That oily pink-faced guy revealed an enchanting smile as he stared at Tong Lei, smiled and said, "We"re all going to Jiang Prefecture. Let me introduce myself, I"m Wu Junjie from Peng City, how do you address me?"
The moment Tong Lei got on the car, Wu Junjie felt his heart being viciously tugged at. Tong Lei"s unparalleled beauty made him unable to s.h.i.+ft his gaze away. However, when Wu Junjie saw Tong Lei happily snuggling up to Ji Feng, hatred and jealousy filled his heart.
If he could interrupt now, how could he let this opportunity go?
"Ji Feng!" Ji Feng indifferently said. Since he had already seen through this young man"s intention, Ji Feng would naturally not give them the opportunity to approach him. If he were to remain indifferent while watching this unscrupulous man approach his girlfriend, then he would no longer be considered a man.
"How should I address this beauty?" Wu Junjie could not help but continue asking when Tong Lei remained silent.
However, Tong Lei didn"t even look at Wu Junjie, she just snuggled up to Ji Feng, ignoring everything around her. Actually, Tong Lei had a cold personality in the first place. She was proud and aloof when she was in high school and had been misunderstood by her cla.s.smates. However, in reality, Tong Lei was like a holy and quiet lily, a n.o.ble being in itself.
Seeing that he had been ignored, Wu Junjie"s expression immediately turned ugly. However, as if he wanted to maintain his demeanor in front of Tong Lei, he could only give her a slight smile.
Ji Feng furrowed his brows. This Wu Junjie did not seem like he was going to give up. His actions were clearly a bit too excessive.
"Ji Feng, right? Which university are you in in Jiangzhou? United University or Gongji University? " Wu Junjie asked.
Ji Feng smiled, "What about you?"
"I"m ashamed to say that I"m a guarantee from the school, the United University." Wu Junjie sounded ashamed, but he didn"t look ashamed at all. In fact, he even seemed slightly proud. Clearly, he was very proud that he had been escorted to the United University.
Ji Feng smiled, "Not bad."
"What about you? Could it be a senior executive in Jiang Prefecture? " Wu Junjie chuckled and asked condescendingly.
This time, not only did Tong Lei frown, even the sleeping Zhang Lei also opened his eyes. The full name of this senior high school in Jiangzhou was Senior Vocational and Technical School in Jiangzhou. It was actually a specialized university, but it was famous for one of its specialties. However, compared to the top schools in the country such as the United University, it was still far from enough.Obviously, Wu Junjie"s words were out of ridicule for Ji Feng.
Before Ji Feng could say anything, Zhang Lei smiled and said, "Save your life? "Un, not bad!"
Although he said it was not bad, but whether it was really not bad or not, no one knew.
"Hehe, actually, it"s nothing. I"m just taking advantage of my family. My family has some influence in Peng City and Jiang Prefecture, so it would be more convenient to go to Jiang Prefecture. "Originally, the school wanted to send me to Beijing as a guarantee, but I still chose Jiang Prefecture!" Wu Junjie boasted shamelessly with a complacent expression."Oh? "You have an influential family in the Jiang Prefecture. This means that your family has quite the background!" Zhang Lei feigned an expression of shock and wors.h.i.+p as he couldn"t help but exclaim.
"Actually, it"s only mediocre!" Seeing Zhang Lei"s expression, Wu Junjie became even more pleased with himself. He glanced at the few students beside him, then looked at Ji Feng and Tong Lei, and said proudly, "Jiang Prefecture"s Party Secretary Ji Zhenguo, you all know this, right? That was a leader from half of the country, and it was from the Ji Clan of Beijing! My cousin and Ji Zhenguo"s youngest son are brothers with each other. When I say it like that, you guys understand, right? ""Wow, he"s that awesome?!" Zhang Lei had a face full of surprise, but his gaze instead descended onto Ji Feng, and he was able to discern that Ji Feng was forcefully holding back his laughter.
It was an international joke to show off the power of the Ji Clan in front of the direct descendants of the Ji Clan.
It was just one simple matter, but Wu Junjie was already unable to enter Zhang Lei"s eyes. He slightly shook his head and closed his eyes before continuing to sleep.
However, that Wu Junjie hadn"t realized yet. He said proudly, "If you encounter any trouble in the Jiang Prefecture, as long as you find me directly, nothing can go wrong."
Ji Feng couldn"t help but exclaim, "Truly powerful!"
"Hehe, just average!" Wu Junjie shook his head complacently, "I think so. Since we"re fated to meet, we should be friends. "For the sake of convenience, let"s exchange our contact information. How about it?"
