Invincible Urban Evil Doctor

Chapter 888: Chapter 893: Provocation (2)

Zhu Ying had just arrived at her office from the dormitory. She didn’t have a class during the first period in the afternoon; her class was in the second period.

Just as she sat down and was about to prepare her lessons, her phone chimed with a WeChat message.

The notification showed it was from Lin Xi.

She suddenly had a bad feeling about it. She initially planned not to read it, but after a moment of hesitation, she couldn’t resist and opened it.

It displayed, "Teacher Zhu, I have something urgent in the afternoon, so please excuse my absence, O(∩_∩)O thanks!"

Seeing this message, Zhu Ying sat in her seat, stunned for quite a while.

Then she directly deleted Lin Xi’s conversation, threw the phone aside, and appeared very angry. She was genuinely angry.

However, even when she was angry, her exterior didn’t reveal much.

Obviously, she was holding it in.

"This guy, didn’t he promise me in the morning? How could he ask for leave again in just half a day!"

"Does he really take my words as if they were just empty air?"

"The most crucial thing is that he never explains exactly what his urgent matter is."

"So there’s no way to know if he genuinely has something urgent or if he’s lying!"

"This time, I’m absolutely not going to excuse him; I’ll just let him fail!"

"..."

At this moment, she was really about to explode, feeling as if she had wasted her breath this morning speaking with him.

However, about half an hour later, even though she was still fuming, she couldn’t help but privately message Lin Xi’s old professor in the faculty group and concoct a reason to excuse him for one session.

This old professor was obviously a meticulous and persistent person, and he inquired about that reason for a good ten minutes.

Zhu Ying exerted quite a bit of effort to barely manage to deal with the old professor.

But after more than half of the afternoon class had passed, she abruptly realized that she hadn’t prepared her lessons.

As a result, her teaching in the afternoon was stuttering, and a number of students in the classroom started playing on their phones.

"Lin Xi!!!" Zhu Ying gritted her teeth.

Lin Xi, already at the kindergarten entrance, had no idea that his one message had caused so much trouble.

But even if he had known, he wouldn’t have thought it was a big deal, as even the most experienced old professors could have their off days.

Luckily, Zhu Ying didn’t know his thoughts; if she did, she definitely wouldn’t have excused his absence!

He had just gotten out of the car, and before Master Li had left, a number of cars suddenly appeared from both sides of the road.

Furthermore, each car was worth no less than 500,000, and some even as much as 5 million luxury cars.

These people parked their cars on both sides of the school entrance, or wherever there was an empty space.

It seemed that this group of individuals were the parents of the students inside the kindergarten, and quite wealthy ones at that.

Lin Xi didn’t pay them any mind, as he believed himself to be wealthier.

Or rather, he thought that in terms of money, these people were on an entirely different level from him.

Because, can any of you earn over three billion in a couple of weeks?

Or can any of you toss around a billion for your wife to use casually?

It’s not that he looked down on them, but they really weren’t on the same level as him.

Yes, he was the true billionaire!

After all, this kindergarten, although quite renowned in Chuzhou City, was just bottom-tier among the top kindergartens.

The top kindergartens would cost several million a year in tuition.

This one was only 450,000.

And in terms of security level, it wasn’t in the same league at all.

A group of parents stood at the entrance, many glancing at Lin Xi, as they could easily see that Lin Xi had arrived by taxi.

Moreover, his clothes today were his old ones.

Altogether, his outfit cost no more than 200 yuan.

So, instantly in the eyes of this group of parents, he was ranked very low.

It was as if a millionaire stood next to a beggar.

Lin Xi evidently noticed their gazes, but possessing wealth over three billion, his perspectives had broadened to an unimaginable extent, so he didn’t give these looks any heed.

Soon, an educator from the kindergarten arrived; although not particularly good-looking, she was the kind of very gentle person who could instantly make people feel at ease.

Standing beside her were two security guards, not especially burly but clearly capable—lean and skilled, probably with significant time spent in the military.

"Including the two at the security post, there are a total of four elite security guards!" Lin Xi noted to himself from the periphery.

It seemed that after the last kidnapping incident, the kindergarten had doubled its security forces.

Now, if a similar situation arose, they could handle it calmly.

The educator stood at the door, matching each parent with a name, and it seemed she had a photo of each parent on her phone.

After matching a dozen or so, the educator called out, "Lin Xi!"

Lin Xi immediately responded and walked through, from the remaining dozen or so people.

Passing by a man in a suit, this man deliberately blocked his way, appearing engaged in a lively conversation with another flamboyantly dressed woman.

This woman also noticed the situation, but she seemed quite pleased to see it.

However, for Lin Xi, no displeasure appeared on his face, prompting those around to once again look down on Lin Xi.

How could such a prestigious school have this kind of parent?

Was he perhaps admitted through back channels?

Or did he have to give up his entire family fortune to get in?

These two possibilities seemed quite likely!

This led them to harbor resentments towards this kindergarten.

Why wasn’t there a rule?

Could children of some lowly people not potentially ruin theirs?

As they pondered this, Lin Xi appeared oblivious to someone deliberately blocking his path and bumped straight into him.

The man in the suit couldn’t help but sneer. He was 1.85 meters tall and had a brawny build.

Lin Xi, though having recently improved his physique and approaching 1.80 meters, wasn’t particularly burly and even looked somewhat slender at a glance.

The flamboyant woman had a flash of scorn across her face, wondering why people these days seem so lacking in judgment!

Others also wore expressions anticipating a show.

The educator obviously noticed the situation but felt powerless.

While the guards behind her were capable of stopping it, their duty was to ensure the kindergarten’s safety, not to manage disputes among parents outside.

Moreover, these parents were all affluent. Even if the guards were elite soldiers, they still couldn’t afford to offend the wealthy.

But the next moment, something unexpected happened.

When Lin Xi, seemingly slender, bumped into the man, it didn’t look like he used much force, yet the 1.85-meter tall, brawny man in the suit staggered forward, almost falling flat on his face.

Had it not been for several people in front of him, he truly would have face-planted.

Lin Xi barely brushed past the flamboyant woman beside him, causing her to nearly stumble to the ground at that moment.

The others, "..."

After a brief silence, many mentally noted, "Who would’ve thought this kid had such brute strength!"

The educator, who had been a bit on edge, also felt significantly relieved, not wanting any trouble among parents.

After verifying the photo, the two guards let Lin Xi in.

Outside, the man in the suit and the flamboyant woman just regained their balance, their expressions extremely unpleasant.

They had just lost tremendous face!

However, they didn’t dare cause a scene, because everyone there was someone of status, and causing trouble would bring more disgrace.

They could only swallow their pride along with their dignity!

But the two, especially the man in the suit, eyed Lin Xi’s back with a touch of malice!
