The old woman, hearing someone groaning behind Yang Qianfan, curiously tiptoed to look behind him. She was taken aback and screamed, "Old man, how did you get beaten up like this?" With that, she pushed Yang Qianfan aside and hurried over to help the Bald Man up, her heart aching for him.
"Wha... what? Old... old man?" Yang Qianfan gaped, pointing at the old man he had just half-beaten, unable to utter a complete sentence.
"Yes, he is our old man. Just now he was running ahead helping me catch a thief; didn't you see him?" the old woman asked in confusion.
"Oh, I see." Yang Qianfan's face flushed with embarrassment as he scratched his head awkwardly, forcing a bitter smile.
Just as Yang Qianfan was regretting his actions, Li Lingfei suddenly exclaimed in shock from the side, "Ah! Principal, how could it be you?" She rushed to the Bald Man's side and squatted down to confirm whether she had mistaken him for someone else. But to her dismay, the miracle she hoped for did not happen; the unfortunate soul whom Yang Qianfan had nearly beaten to death was indeed Principal Niu of Nanhua High School.
"What? Principal..." Upon hearing Li Lingfei call out, Yang Qianfan was instantly terrified, his brows furrowing deeply as cold sweat dripped down his face.
"Li Lingfei, what are you doing here?" Principal Niu was equally surprised to see her.
"Yes, what a coincidence!" Li Lingfei replied awkwardly to Principal Niu, unsure of how to react.
"Principal, I was facing away from you just now, so I didn’t see your face clearly before... before I acted. It was all an accident—purely an accident. Really, it was just a misunderstanding!" Yang Qianfan explained with a bitter smile while nervously backing away.
Seeing Yang Qianfan trying to explain himself, Principal Niu finally understood that the beast who had just beaten him senseless was none other than his own student known as the "Invincible Overlord." His teeth clenched tightly, bloodshot eyes glaring with rage like a swollen frog ready to explode. He stared daggers at Yang Qianfan as if he were a sharp iron blade intent on taking his life. With a grand cough and a forceful shove to those around him who were helping him up, he picked up a not-too-thick bamboo stick from the ground and approached Yang Qianfan menacingly.
"Well now, you little brat dare to hit the principal? Today... today I will skin you alive!" As Principal Niu's harsh words fell from his lips, the bamboo stick rose into the air and came crashing down onto Yang Qianfan.
"Principal Niu! No! I'm sorry! I promise I won't do it again!" In his panic, Yang Qianfan inadvertently shouted out the nickname he usually only dared to use in private.
Hearing his nickname, Cowhide Niu, called out, Principal Niu felt a surge of anger that only intensified, causing him to strike harder.
"Aren't you a hero? Aren't you the Hero? Aren't you supposed to help the weak and eliminate evil? What happened? Have you turned into a good little boy now?" Principal Niu shouted, delivering several more hard blows to Yang Qianfan's legs, making him run around like a frightened dog.
"No, I'm not a hero. I'm a bear. I'm not the Hero; I'm just a shrimp. I have eyes but cannot see Mount Tai. Please, don't hold it against me. I promise to turn over a new leaf and study hard from now on," Yang Qianfan cried out desperately as he ran forward.
Principal Niu chased him for a while but eventually collapsed from exhaustion. When Yang Qianfan saw him fall behind, he didn't hesitate and immediately ran back to help him up, asking if he was alright. Principal Niu had intended to teach him another lesson with the bamboo stick but seeing that Yang Qianfan had the heart to come back and help him despite the risk of being hit again, he decided to let it go. Instead, he verbally reprimanded him and assigned him to clean the school's gym for a week as punishment.
Squatting on the ground, Yang Qianfan curled up in a ball, obediently nodding at every word from the principal as if his height of six feet had suddenly shrunk to four feet eight inches. The arrogance he had moments ago was extinguished by Principal Niu's scolding. After finishing his tirade, Principal Niu left with the principal's wife. Just when Yang Qianfan and Li Lingfei thought they were safe and that Principal Niu had gone far away, he unexpectedly returned.
Seeing him come back startled Yang Qianfan so much that he slipped and fell onto the ground, his legs turning to jelly, unable to get up for a while.
Principal Niu strode over to him, glared at him without saying a word, and simply took back his wig from Yang Qianfan's hands. After giving it a light pat, he happily placed it back on his bald head and turned around as if nothing had happened.
Still shaken, Yang Qianfan sat on the ground and stammered to Li Lingfei beside him, "He... he won't come back again, will he?"
"Probably not!" Li Lingfei replied, watching Principal Niu's retreating figure.
