"Cheng Tong, go ahead, tell me, what are the consequences of offending you?" Professor Liu walked over slowly, his expression extremely grim.
He had intended to wait for Qin Heng to finish his registration before coming over and have Li Qiuting apologize to Qin Heng, but he hadn't expected Cheng Tong to be so recklessly ignorant! This was someone even the Immortal Xu He called "a supreme figure"! Definitely a legendary powerhouse of the Martial Dao! And he must be above the Immortal Xu He. Keep in mind, the Immortal Xu He is an Innate Grandmaster, yet he calls this person a supreme figure. What level of strength must that be? And such a person was mocked and scorned by an ordinary student at Beijing University, within his own History Department no less! If the higher-ups were to blame anyone, he, the department head, couldn't possibly escape responsibility!
Professor Liu felt a chill throughout his body as if he were in a freezing cave. He wished he could kill Cheng Tong then and there!
The History Department's registration desk entered a brief silence due to his arrival.
All eyes were focused on him, filled with immense shock. Then, there was an uproar!
"Professor Liu! Professor Liu!?"
"My God, Professor Liu is here!"
"The head of the History Department! Has he come to inspect the freshman registration personally?"
Suddenly, the area became noisy.
The expression on Cheng Tong's face immediately stiffened, his complexion turning pale as he forced a smile more unsightly than crying and said, "Professor Liu, why have you come?"
SLAP!
Without another word, Professor Liu grabbed the first book from the freshmen registration desk and smacked it across Cheng Tong's face, saying sternly, "Kneel! Apologize to Mr. Qin!"
Silence! Utter silence. The surroundings were so quiet you could hear a pin drop!
At Professor Liu's words, everyone was stunned—Li Qiuting, the other onlookers, everyone. They were all dumbfounded, staring at Professor Liu in disbelief.
What did he just say!? He actually ordered Cheng Tong to kneel—to kneel and apologize to this new student!? No, that's not it! Professor Liu actually called this new student "Mr. Qin"!? Good heavens! This is Professor Liu, the Mount Tai of China's historical academia, a national-level historian, a top-tier figure! He actually! He actually called such a young freshman "Mr."! That's a term of respect! How is this possible! It's too incredible! The people present almost doubted if they were hallucinating; they thought they must have heard wrong! Otherwise, this was too bizarre, too incredible to comprehend!
Of course, the most shocked person there was Cheng Tong.
He stood there dumbfounded, looking at Professor Liu in disbelief. His voice trembled as he struggled to speak, "Professor Liu, what did you just... just say?"
"Kneel!" Professor Liu's expression remained unchanged, deadly serious as he said sternly, "Kneel immediately. Kneel to Mr. Qin and apologize!"
"No!" Cheng Tong exploded, roaring, "Why should I! Professor Liu, I'm a third-year student in the History Department, and he is just a freshman. If anyone should apologize, it should be him apologizing to me! I, as a senior, reminded him of how to behave, yet he ignored me. That is an insult; he should apologize to me. Why should I apologize to him?"
"I saw everything you did and said just now," Professor Liu said indifferently. "Consider yourself lucky I haven't expelled you. Kneel down and apologize to Mr. Qin!"
The people around were shocked again. It seemed Professor Liu was determined to make Cheng Tong kneel and apologize. This was truly unbelievable, especially considering Cheng Tong's position as Head of the Student Union's Organization Department—a position almost impossible to attain without the support of department leadership.
In other words, Cheng Tong could be considered one of Professor Liu's favored students. And yet, he was now demanding that Cheng Tong kneel for a freshman who had just enrolled!? It was utterly incredible!
Many shifted their attention to Qin Heng, observing the tall and handsome youth with immense curiosity.
Who exactly is he, and what kind of status does he have? Even a prominent figure like Professor Liu referred to him as Mr. Qin!?
Especially Li Qiuting. She instinctively felt that Qin Heng's identity couldn't be as simple as it appeared. He definitely wasn't an ordinary person, otherwise Professor Liu wouldn't be acting this way. Could what he said earlier all be true?
A crazy idea suddenly surfaced in Li Qiuting's mind: Could Tianhu Real Estate really go bankrupt tomorrow?? Impossible, right? Even if this Qin Heng's status was incredibly exalted and distinguished, he couldn't possibly bankrupt a listed company like Beijing's Tianhu Real Estate, worth tens of billions, in a single day! That would be far too terrifying!!
"He is not qualified to apologize to me."
Qin Heng suddenly spoke, immediately attracting everyone's attention. He looked down at the nearly insane Cheng Tong and said indifferently, "An ant like him is not qualified to kneel and apologize to me."
The people around him heard this and were instantly baffled, all looking at Qin Heng in disbelief.
Holy shit! The sheer audacity! Cheng Tong, after all, is the Head of the Beijing University Student Union's Organization Department! That's no ordinary position! He's powerful and influential! Within Beijing University, he's definitely considered a significant figure! Yet this freshman actually said Cheng Tong wasn't even qualified to kneel and apologize to him!? Not even qualified to kneel! That's unbelievably arrogant!
"Indeed, that's correct." Professor Liu nodded in agreement with Qin Heng's words and said, "With your status, Cheng Tong merely kneeling to apologize is not enough. Mr. Qin, how would you like to deal with him?"
BOOM!
With that, the entire scene boiled over. Everyone's eyes widened, and they were utterly stunned.
Holy shit! Professor Liu actually agrees with what this freshman said!? My God! Who on earth is this freshman, to be held in such high esteem? Unbelievable, simply unbelievable!
Many people felt that their worldview had been heavily shaken.
"Liu Minghe!" Cheng Tong was thoroughly enraged, pointing at Professor Liu and shouting, "You old fart, who do you think you are, daring to make me kneel to this brat! Bah! I didn't want to reveal my true identity, but you've forced my hand! I refuse to believe that a mere History Department Head carries more weight than the President of Beijing University! Now let me tell you all! Beijing University's President Tan Wenhe is my uncle by marriage! With just one phone call, all of you are doomed! Damn it!"
What!? Beijing University's President Tan Wenhe is Cheng Tong's uncle by marriage!?
This news was too shocking. It even astonished Professor Liu, and the people around were also shocked to their core, looking at Cheng Tong with amazement.
No one had expected him to have such a connection!
"You little beast! You think with Liu Minghe's support, you can do whatever you want?" Cheng Tong looked at Qin Heng with disdain and said, "My backing is stronger than yours, idiot! Now, I'll make a call and have my uncle expel you directly! Worthless trash like you isn't fit to be at Beijing University! HAHAHA! Surprised? Didn't see that coming, did you?"
Cheng Tong was now extremely arrogant, unbridled. In his eyes, Qin Heng was destined to be expelled from Beijing University, destined to live a life of poverty and misery!
So he was incredibly pleased!
"Then make the call." Qin Heng, however, merely chuckled, "Go ahead and call Tan Wenhe. While you're at it, ask him for me if his head still hurts?"
Beijing University's President Tan Wenhe.
He had long been Qin Heng's slave!
