By now, he had successfully refined the Poison-Devouring Worm. Lv Zhong was extremely pleased. As he was about to go to the canteen with his bowl for dinner, the dormitory door suddenly swung open. Chen Shaoyuan walked in, eating from his own bowl. Upon seeing Lv Zhong in the dorm, his eyes lit up. He moved closer and asked with a grin, “Lv Zhong, are…are you really dating Yan Yan?” “What? No way!” Chen Ru was taken aback, then laughed, shaking his head, “Shaoyuan, since when have you become such a gossip? Have you been influenced by Tang Da Fatty?” “You’re still denying it?” Chen Shaoyuan was skeptical, “Yan Yan is in the canteen right now, looking everywhere for you. Knowing Yan Yan’s personality, why else would she seek you out so persistently if there’s nothing between you two?” What Chen Shaoyuan didn’t mention was that Yan Yan had specifically asked him to check the dorm to find Lv Zhong… Chen Shaoyuan figured if Lv Zhong hadn’t won Yan Yan’s heart, why else would she go to such lengths to find him? Yet, he still denied dating her? Who would believe that? Certainly not Chen Shaoyuan. He knew Yan Yan was extremely shy, hardly daring to talk to boys. The fact that she had asked Lv Zhong out to dinner last time was unusually bold of her. And now, for her to specifically ask Chen Shaoyuan for help to find Lv Zhong was quite rare. “Yan Yan is looking for me?” This time, Lv Zhong was truly taken aback. Even though he hadn’t spent much time with Yan Yan, he understood her character quite well. A seemingly delicate girl with a strong, resilient heart. Unless there was an emergency, she wouldn’t seek him out. At this point, Lv Zhong looked at Chen Shaoyuan and inquired, “Is Yan Yan still at the canteen?” “Yes…” Chen Shaoyuan answered reflexively. Once he received confirmation from Chen Shaoyuan, Lv Zhong picked up his bowl, quickly departed the dorm and headed to the canteen. “Well, he’s still denying that he’s dating Yan Yan. Yet, the moment he hears she’s looking for him, he rushes off that fast…” Chen Shaoyuan rolled his eyes, muttering to himself as he watched Lv Zhong leave. Arriving at the canteen, Lv Zhong immediately saw Yan Yan. Sitting at a table, her face flushed, she was craning her neck to look for him at the canteen entrance. There was a hint of embarrassment in her eyes, but more noticeable was her anxiety. And on her table sat a thermos full of food. Upon spotting Lv Zhong entering the canteen, Yan Yan’s eyes lit up. She quickly stood up, and shyly waved at him. S~eaʀᴄh the NôvelFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Yan Yan was always modest in her attire and economical with her expenses. Despite her slight malnourishment, a simple school uniform could not hide her beauty and purity. Although she was only 1.5 meters tall, she was still a petite and beautiful appeal. She was quite popular in their city. Many people in the canteen recognized her, and as this petite beauty suddenly greeted Lv Zhong so warmly, envy was clearly visible in the eyes of those watching Lv Zhong. “Yan Yan, what did you need me for?” Lv Zhong approached Yan Yan’s table, curious about why this usually shy and timid girl was seeking him out. Yan Yan appeared slightly shocked and gave Lv Zhong a timid glance. Her face became even more crimson. She lowered her head and stammered, “Lv…Lv Zhong, could…could you do me another favor?” Seeing Yan Yan like this, Lv Zhong chuckled lightly, “Yan Yan, we’re classmates. There’s no need to be so shy. Just tell me what it is, and I’ll definitely help if I can!” Seeing that Lv Zhong didn’t refuse, Yan Yan looked up at him. Gaining some courage from his gentle smile, she said, “Lv Zhong, I’d like you to accompany me to the hospital, is…is that okay?” The hospital? The students around who had been eavesdropping on Yan Yan and Lv Zhong turned pale one by one when they heard this, all of them glaring fiercely at Lv Zhong. “Oh my gosh, Yan Yan, such a top-notch beauty, was actually ‘taken down’ by Lv Zhong? They’re going to the hospital together?” “Ah, such a fine cabbage has been taken by a pig…” “How could this happen? How am I inferior to that fellow Lv Zhong… ” … Many people are bleeding in their hearts. Fortunately, while they’re thinking of all these messy things, they didn’t say them out loud, otherwise, Lv Zhong would definitely teach them a lesson. Lv Zhong swept his eyes around, a chill that could penetrate the soul directly made everyone around turn their heads, no longer daring to sneak peeks at the two of them. “It’s okay. But can you tell me what happened?” Lv Zhong looked at Yan Yan curiously. He knew that the extremely shy girl in front of him would not ask for help unless it was the most urgent moment. There must be something hidden in this matter. Indeed! Yan Yan organized her words, her face blushing to the extreme, and said: “My mother is still in the hospital, but a new patient has been transferred to her ward recently. The patient’s family members are…all hoodlums. Not only do they make a big fuss in the ward every day, they also…also…harass me. But I…I still have to bring food for my mother, I’m scared…” When she said this, she shivered with lingering fear and then stuttered out all the things she knew to Lv Zhong. Upon hearing this, Lv Zhong’s face changed instantly, a trace of chill flashing in his eyes. If Yan Yan, this little girl, mentioned being bullied, then those people must have really bullied her. What’s more, they had scared Yan Yan to such an extent, obviously they’d done something despicable! After listening to Yan Yan’s complete story, Lv Zhong finally understood what was going on. As it turned out, starting from the day before yesterday, a new patient was transferred to Yan Yan’s mother’s ward. The patient was quite pitiful, a construction worker who had fallen and injured his spine. The boss at the construction site was not a heartless person. He instantly took out 30,000 yuan for the surgery and even assigned a colleague to take care of his daily life. The patient was a genuine man and didn’t complain, only hoping to have the surgery and recover soon since he had a family to support. However, he had a nephew who was a somewhat known hoodlum around Yan City. He first sent him to a small hospital—Kang Yang Orthopedics, and after spending part of the money for treatment, he transferred him to New Attached High School without performing surgery. At New Attached High School, he kept delaying the surgery to blackmail the construction boss for more money, even gathering four or five hoodlums to make a commotion in the hospital… The construction boss was also a stubborn man, thinking he had intended to pay off his debt fairly, and they were pressuring him like this? Now, he just refused to give in to them. As a result, he also refused to pay more. Unless the hoodlum nephew left the hospital, nothing would be discussed… The boss’s adamancy led to intense disputes, and as a result, the people in Yan Yan’s mother’s ward were also affected. What’s most hateful is that Yan Yan was even teased by a few hoodlums when she went to deliver meals these past two days… “Let’s go! I’ll go with you right now…” Lv Zhong’s face darkened, he gave up on eating, said this to Yan Yan, and was ready to leave. Seeing Lv Zhong’s urgency, Yan Yan felt a strong sense of happiness. Noticing that Lv Zhong hadn’t had his meal yet, she hurriedly said, “Wait… wait, Lv Zhong, you… you should eat first.” This time she felt truly helpless. Other than Lv Zhong, she couldn’t think of anyone else who could help her. Moreover, she didn’t even know if Lv Zhong would help her. Seeking out Lv Zhong this time was not to make him teach the hoodlums a lesson, but to give her some courage. She was too scared. After giving Yan Yan a glance, Lv Zhong nodded his head, suppressed the anger in his heart, got some food from the canteen, and ate it casually. PS: This hoodlum incident is real, and the patient with spine injury also exists in Against the Heavens’ village. Even the event took place just ten days ago. But I heard from my mom that he just had his surgery yesterday. All of this was caused by his hoodlum nephew. It’s said that he almost ended up being paralysed for life. I never thought that there could be people who would ignore familial bonds for money. Do you know what this hoodlum said when he faced the villagers’ condemnation? He said, “If I can get money, even if it’s by extortion, it’s still my skill…” Against the Heavens was shocked. How cold-blooded must a person be to utter such words?
