Chapter 22: The Elephant Bones Society.
Chapter 22
Yuan Ao was very good at taking care of children. He always chose places that Yuan Luoyi liked to go.
This time it was the Spring Forest Park. When night fell, countless fireflies took flight, twinkling beautifully and movingly.
Yuan Luoyi was having fun, but Yuan Ao's eyes were gloomy, because he had just learned about Teacher Su's bullying behavior towards Su Xun and Yuan Luoyi.
He coldly laughed and made a phone call, notifying the Elephant Bone Association to launch a "teacher ethics investigation" on Teacher Su.
So the next day when Yuan Luoyi went to school, she discovered a group of formally dressed people standing at the gates of the teaching building. They had stern expressions on their faces and wore badges with an elephant skull on their chests.
The usually arrogant teachers at Star Galaxy Middle School suddenly became humble. After all, the Elephant Bone Association could fire teachers with one word.
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to our school visit. If you have any questions, please ask and we will definitely make improvements."
The people from the Elephant Bone Association did not respond. They walked forward coldly and the teachers smiled awkwardly as they followed.
The P.E. teacher popped out from a corner, looking especially nervous. He looked left and right and upon discovering Yuan Luoyi, he quickly walked over.
"Yuan Luoyi! Come with teacher for a moment." 𝖋𝖗𝖊𝖊𝖜𝔢𝔟𝖓𝖔𝔳𝔢𝔩.𝔠𝖔𝔪
The P.E. teacher pulled Yuan Luoyi onto a small garden path.
After making sure no one else was around, he harshly said, "If there is an issue, you need to tell teacher first. Don't go tattling to parents all the time! These people now want to thoroughly investigate every teacher at the school! You never focus on studying and only cause trouble for the school!"
Yuan Luoyi said, "But Teacher Su never solves problems. She only wants to get rid of me."
The P.E. teacher raised his voice, "Don't try to make excuses to me! Can you say you've done nothing wrong at all? Teacher Su is one of the top 10 outstanding young teachers. She has so many students. Why is it that only you can't get along with her?"
Yuan Luoyi didn't make a sound. The P.E. teacher thought he had intimidated her and softened his tone again.
"If you can admit your mistakes, then you can still be a good student."
"Teacher has always been pretty good to you. Every time you asked to be exempt from running, I agreed. And I've always given you a 95 for P.E., which is a high score compared to the rest of your grade."
"Let's do this then. Teacher doesn't want to argue with you either. Go tell your brother and have the people from the Elephant Bone Association leave quickly. From now on, I'll keep giving you high marks."
Looking at the P.E. teacher's insincere smile, Yuan Luoyi knew that he actually meant if she didn't do as he said, her P.E. grade would likely become 0!
Well...P.E. teachers were always like this.
When Yuan Luoyi was pushed down by Sen Junxuan in P.E. class and hurt pretty badly, the P.E. teacher had pretended to admire the scenery.
There were many privileged students in Class A. The hierarchy was strict and bullying incidents happened frequently. The P.E. teacher's strategy was to pretend he didn't see anything - better to avoid trouble.
Yuan Luoyi said, "Teacher, is this considered threatening students?"
The P.E. teacher became very angry. "You brat, watch how you speak!"
He didn't expect Yuan Luoyi to still not be scared and instead start questioning him!
He had to demonstrate his authority even more!
Could a strong, grown man like himself not intimidate a middle schooler?
The P.E. teacher suddenly stepped forward, raising his hand high, about to swing at Yuan Luoyi's face.
He wasn't actually going to hit her since Star Galaxy Middle School prohibited teachers from hitting students. But these spoiled rich girls would usually beg for mercy at the sight of him about to hit someone.
Suddenly, a force gripped his wrist. The P.E. teacher looked back to see a young man wearing a black windbreaker and black hat. His handsome features were obscured in shadow while his eyes glinted dangerously.
What made the P.E. teacher even more panicked was seeing the man had an Elephant Bone Association badge on his chest.
The P.E. teacher forced a smile, "Sir, don't get the wrong idea. I was only trying to scare her."
"She's in Class D. You know those problem kids who are beyond saving. I called her over to lecture her a few times, hoping she wouldn't continue to slack off and would strive for advancement instead. "
"I'm only strict for her own good. *sigh* Truly an unruly student, making me worry to death."
The P.E. teacher had thought the man would be persuaded, but now the man's gaze had become even darker, staring emotionlessly at the P.E. teacher as if he were a dead man walking.
The man walked past the P.E. teacher and over to Yuan Luoyi, "Are you okay?"
His voice was very pleasant to listen to, like the melodious whale calls from the deep ocean - low, magnetic.
Yuan Luoyi said, "I'm fine. Why did you come to my school, third brother?"
In her memories, her third brother was like a lone wolf. He had left the Yuan family when Yuan Luoyi was six and never returned. She really didn't expect to run into him at school.
The P.E. teacher froze.
Third brother?
This man was the Yuan family's third son, Yuan Yong!
Thinking of what he had just said, the P.E. teacher finally understood why Yuan Yong was looking at him that way.
He stammered, "No...you've got it wrong, Sir. I didn't mean that!"
Yuan Yong coldly glanced at the P.E. teacher once. "On top of embezzling school funds, you even threatened my little sister. How dare you?"
This sentence was like a bomb, roaring as it blew everything apart. The P.E. teacher was stunned speechless.
The reason why he wanted the people from the Elephant Bone Association to leave quickly was because he was afraid they would discover he had embezzled funds.
How could they find out so fast? It wasn't possible!
The P.E. teacher angrily bellowed, "It's all fake!"
He had lost control of his emotions. So many crimes added up, it was enough for a life sentence.
Going from an envied teacher at Star Galaxy Middle School to a prisoner was too enormous of a fall for him to accept!
He had to escape!
The P.E. teacher turned and ran. Yuan Yong crouched slightly and suddenly exploded forward with power like a black leopard, grabbing the P.E. teacher's arm.
Yuan Yong laughed coldly. Among the five Yuan brothers, he enjoyed killing the most, which was why he had inherited Yuan's Mother's mantle and also became an assassin. The P.E. teacher had treated his little sister so horribly, so Yuan Yong already harbored killing intent. Such a good opportunity for violence wouldn't be missed.
And so, the P.E. teacher's head crashed heavily to the ground. The intense pain made him instinctively terrified - he was going to die. He really was going to die!
"Ahhhhh!"
The shrill scream immediately attracted the students' attention. They craned their necks from the garden, wanting to know what had happened.
Yuan Yong frowned. He shifted to block the P.E. teacher so his little sister wouldn't see the horrible state the teacher was in. His little sister was the only normal one in the family. She would definitely be scared to tears. He had to restrain his dark side a little.
Here the P.E. teacher could still shriek, but in prison when he was beaten by inmates, no matter how he screamed, no one would care.
Everyone knew what to do to those Yuan Yong personally delivered to satisfy him.
Hearing the shout, the other people from the Elephant Bone Association rushed over. Thinking they were his saviors, the P.E. teacher crawled up from the ground, staggering as he walked.
He cursed, "He's crazy! He's slandering me and hitting me too!"
The response from the Elephant Bone Association members was a silver bracelet. Several policemen came forward and pinned down the P.E. teacher. His head banged on the ground again, and he screamed in pain.
Many of them owed Yuan Yong favors and respected Yuan Yong for his extreme combat ability. Naturally, they would not be polite to the P.E. teacher.
The students watching were shocked by the scene before them.
"What's going on!? The P.E. teacher committed a crime and got arrested?"
"I don't know, he's usually pretty nice..."
"My god! If it's true, he would be the first teacher from Star Galaxy Middle School to be put away!"
They took out their phones and spread the news on the school's group chat. The whole group exploded, and students who had been inactive for three to four years started talking.
Seeing that the situation was resolved, Yuan Yong left with Yuan Luoyi.
Yuan Yong's gaze was extremely cold when looking at others, but his eyes softened a lot when looking at Yuan Luoyi. He took off his hat and bowed elegantly and gentlemanly.
"Long time no see, my dear sister. I came back this time for one thing only, which is to take you away from the Yuan family."
Yuan Luoyi asked, "Why do we need to get away from the Yuan family?"
Yuan Yong gently said, "I've been watching over you from afar. They are all evil, venomous snakes, but you are not one of them. The Yuan family is full of sin. They are a group of selfish lunatics who will eventually pay for their wrongdoings. I don't want you to stay there."
He extended his palm to Yuan Luoyi, the motion elegant like inviting a lady to dance, "I can take you anywhere you want to go and permanently get away from the Yuan family. They won't be able to find us."
Yuan Luoyi looked at her third brother Yuan Yong. He had a very handsome appearance that gave a feeling of fragile delicateness. His voice was also gentle and pleasant, putting people at ease. He could make others lower their guard against him.
Yuan Luoyi knew he was a brother who wanted to protect his sister, but her third brother was not normal.
Yuan Luoyi said, "After you take me away from the Yuan family, how will I get away from you?"
Yuan Yong laughed, "I won't hurt you. Why would you need to get away from me?"
Time flowed backwards as Yuan Luoyi recalled the incident when she was 6 years old and was lured away by her third brother—the dead rabbit, the firmly locked door, and the bloodthirsty beautiful youth who told her bedtime stories at night.
