Chapter 76

After hastily bidding farewell to Ouyang Xiaoxin, Chen Jie sprinted off. Although he had only chatted with Ouyang Xiaoxin for about half an hour, when it came to the young lady Siyu, it was a different story...

Reaching the parking lot, Chen Jie looked from a distance and immediately noticed something was amiss.

Seven or eight boys were standing around Wang Siyu, with Man Luo by her side. These boys were not wearing the Guoteng school uniform; they were all tall and muscular, forming a semicircle around Wang Siyu and Man Luo. Wang Siyu and Man Luo were backed against Chen Jie's old car, facing off against the boys.

The Guoteng parking lot was very large and a hard-to-monitor area, especially since it was now the time for club activities, and there were hardly any people around.

Chen Jie shook his head and was about to go over, but he suddenly turned around and found someone who had just sneaked up behind him, waving a finger to indicate not to speak.

It was actually Wang Qingzhe from the Psychological Analysis Club.

"Sure enough, you are Wang Siyu's bodyguard, right, Chen Jie?" Wang Qingzhe smiled.

"Have you ever seen a bodyguard who just stands by and watches?" Chen Jie ignored him and prepared to rush over to help Wang Siyu and the others.

At this moment, Man Luo, who couldn't hold back, seemed to make a move, and Chen Jie also got ready to go over.

"Hehe, don't be in a hurry. Didn't you see over there?" Wang Qingzhe smiled, pointing in another direction.

Four refrigerators... no, four people, led by Tuoba Tianjie, were rushing over with baseball bats and other similar items.

"What do you guys think you're doing!" Tuoba Tianjie, holding a baseball bat, glared fiercely at the boys and shouted. The three people behind him also held various makeshift weapons, standing behind Tuoba Tianjie.

They looked very intimidating, but Chen Jie found it strange: He had seen many people like Tuoba Tianjie, who would start a fight at the slightest provocation. Now, he was holding back and first tried to intimidate the other side with words. What was going on?

Could it be that, as the son of the principal, he was also wary of these boys?

Who were these boys?

"These people are from Heiyan High School; they are probably here for a visit." Wang Qingzhe, noticing Chen Jie's expression, explained with a smile.

Heiyan High School in Tianhai City was known as the 'perpetual second' for a well-known reason: the existence of Guoteng.

Both schools were decades-old high schools, but due to the strong backing of investors behind Guoteng, Heiyan High School had always been inferior to Guoteng in both hardware and software.

However, in the past two years, Heiyan had received substantial investments from major companies outside the city, significantly boosting its strength. With various talent introduction plans and poaching top students from other high schools, Heiyan's strength and reputation had grown steadily.

Although the two high schools had mutual grievances, their daily interactions were frequent. Perhaps the school boards on both sides hoped to reduce the barriers, but in reality, this was mostly one-sided.

The students from both schools couldn't stand each other, and there were constant competitions between their clubs: soccer matches, basketball games, volleyball matches, swimming, fencing... and even rumors of underground car races and black market boxing matches between the students!

Moreover, despite the deep animosity between the students of each school, they were united against other schools, which left the school boards in a bind.
