Chapter 1: The Most Vicious Insults

This fellow is truly toxic

Li Ao stood up abruptly, charging towards the office door like an arrow released from a bow

This fellow not only uncovers the wound but also sprinkles salt on it

Li Ao, whose English name is Leo, passed the entrance interview last July at the age of not yet 17. Now 18 years old, he is a sophomore, an international student majoring in both Computer Theory and Computer Application Concepts at the School of Computer Science. His academic performance during the freshman year was outstanding. He could type out this information with his eyes closed.

Feeling the director's angry gaze, she quickly stifled her laughter, but her expression still couldn't hold back, and she replied: "I understand, I will handle this matter properly and uphold the honor of the academy"

At that moment, Vivian noticed Li Ao's face turning red as he averted his gaze. She lowered her head to look at her own chest, which was rising and falling due to her heavy breathing... Indeed, he is still just a child; I really want to tease him!

In addition to jealousy, he was also angry

Watching the interaction between the two, Dean Teng felt completely numb

Li Ao, a standard "bully" who fights every few days and injures his opponents each time, is treated as merely a mischievous and naughty child by the beautiful and sexy Vivian, who is in her thirties and easily overwhelmed by maternal instincts, simply because he is good-looking

Why

Is this what we have become

There are increasingly more individuals with mental health issues now. Although this boy appears harmless, he just sent the notorious Shelby-Jordan, known as 'Little Laimbeer' in the University of California basketball community, to the hospital. He is definitely not a good person; what if he is also mentally unstable?

Li Ao immediately said: "My dream is to kick away the shame of 'The Shame of Troy'! I came to this school to become a part of the great Trojans!"

"Damn it," Director Teng immediately exclaimed a curse, "How the hell did that guy arrive so quickly this time?"

Director Teng's blood pressure soared: "What if we can't win?"

After the director signed, Vivian reviewed the materials again. Confirming there were no issues, she said to Li Ao: "You, this child, have made me work again. I was originally going to the beauty salon this afternoon. So, how are you going to compensate me?"

Li Ao quickly reassured, "Director, rest assured, I am well aware. Before taking action, I first confirmed with my two and a half years of practice in Iron Mountain Lean that he is not my opponent"

Director Teng: "... ..."

The one backing this kid is none other than the dean himself

In everything, there is always a possibility of unforeseen circumstances; if one were to be caught with a handle... It is better not to speak, and this young man chose to take action, which, for him as the dean, actually spared him from potential troubles

A question mark appeared on Henry's face

In our Computer Science Department, there is a famous saying: "Basketball, not even a dog would play."

The money for buying ingredients for dinner has been taken care of, and there are beautiful women joining for dinner. Li Ao was in a great mood and asked the other side of the desk: "Director, what should I do now?"

Henry Bibby nodded in response: "You guessed correctly"

Li Ao turned his gaze towards the sound, as a middle-aged man dressed in a stylish and flamboyant manner entered the office

While it is important to be honest in life, saying it this way is quite embarrassing for him

Vivian

Mr. Lu Xun is mistaken; who says that people cannot empathize with one another? He is currently experiencing the anger that Li Ao felt at that time

He is indeed a professor dedicated to teaching and nurturing students! How could a dignified head of a department entertain such shocking thoughts! What would happen if others found out?

Every time I spend time with this guy, my thoughts tend to go off track

Although this incident was caused by specific reasons, Dean Teng still believes it is necessary to provide some education: "So you acted impulsively again? Have you considered the consequences?"

What Li Ao heard was a question about his age, but he blurted out: "Not yet 30"

The assistant Vivian Keller beside her burst out laughing.

The assistant's teasing went unheard by Dean Teng

Henry Bibby is angry

"Wat? He just insulted you?" Dean Teng was quite curious, "Tell me, what did he say to make you beat him into the hospital? I remember the last time someone tried to slap you, you only knocked him down and kicked him in the face twice."

Have you reached the point of merely knocking the opponent down and kicking them in the face twice

No one else was around, and Director Teng finally couldn't hold it any longer, switching back to his mother tongue and shouted a phrase.

Henry Bibby recalled that during the last time he had drinks with Dean Teng, the dean had complained to him that no one from their School of Computer Science had received a sports scholarship in several years

It would be great to send this kid to UCLA to cause trouble for others

In fact, Director Teng does not have any other thoughts; at his age, as a man, witnessing such events naturally evokes a sense of pure, instinctive jealousy

Good Dean

Is this what it means to be sensible

Because this is hitting someone? This time it is a bit excessive! ... Vivian looked towards the dean? ... ∑ ( O ) ? ?

He is not blind! Of course he can tell that this boy is not yet 30 years old

Vivian, who was almost knocked over, was also startled. She gasped for breath and looked up at Li Ao, and from this angle... Last June, when this child first arrived, she was about 175 centimeters tall, and she appeared even taller when she wore high heels

The entire operation is seamless and fluid, with no unnecessary steps

Dirty

The one who plays basketball deserves to be sent to the hospital! His mouth should be beaten to a pulp

The person that Li Ao beat up this time is indeed a member of the basketball team and also a starting player.

Li Ao continued, "The Trojans football team and the Trojans women's team are both great, but the Trojans basketball team... I heard that you haven't made it to March Madness for two years, and among the entire Trojan legion, you are the worst. You are competing with the Bears for Davis, who is unwilling to come and even mocked you as the 'Shame of Troy'"

The visitor is Henry Bibby, the head coach of the USC Trojans basketball team, who is a friend of Dean Teng

Go wherever you want!

He turned to the assistant beside him and said: "Vivian, you go handle this matter properly. A fight has occurred on campus, indicating a problem with our college's management. We have an inescapable responsibility."

Vivian took out the funding application form from the folder, began to fill in the reasons for the funding request, and then presented it to the dean for signature

Director Teng was speechless; as a middle-aged man who had weathered countless storms, he always felt as if he were being led astray by a newly adult child

Li Ao rushed to the office door of hetushu.com, and just as the door was closed, it suddenly opened again. Vivian returned, and fortunately, Li Ao reacted quickly and stopped in time, preventing a collision with her.

A `transparent' yet clearly visible `screen' appeared before him, displaying only a single line of text—``Basketball Dream System Activating ... ... ''

This is the most vicious curse that Director Teng has ever heard

Vivian regretfully abandoned the idea of teasing the big boy again, grasped Li Ao's arm, and returned to the office, saying: "Dean, it's not good, Henry has arrived"

There are only four people in total, two of whom are his friends. Henry, who is awkward, comes and goes quickly. He silently steps back and says: "Don't worry, I'm not here to stand up for 'Xiao Lan Bi Er'. I'm just curious about what the foreign exchange student who could send 'Xiao Lan Bi Er' to the hospital looks like, so I came to take a look. I didn't expect him to be a handsome guy... By the way!"

She is too experienced to handle this matter

Li Ao hurriedly replied: "He scolded me!"

Oh, Sean, my friend, your student hit my team member, and you are still cursing me behind my back. I am truly very sad

Vivian, who thought Li Ao was just being ridiculous, gave him a pinch and said to Henry Bibby, "Leo just turned 18 in August, so what? You wouldn't be trying to poach someone from our Computer Science Department, would you?"

... ...

Do not say that if Li Ao were to tell him directly about this matter, he would indeed be unable to refrain from taking some action

You are quite understanding. After I finish dealing with this matter, we will go to the supermarket together to buy groceries. Tonight, I will make sure to tire you out properly, so you have enough energy to go fight!

However, he could not easily deny Vivian's words; heaven knows whether this young person might have some issues and act impulsively. What if he gets beaten up?

Vivian had already collapsed in laughter on her desk. After catching her breath, upon hearing the director's words, she burst into laughter once again

Despite the significant height difference, the two were left in solitude. Henry Bibby looked at the tall and slender Li Ao behind them, and with a tone of surprise, said: "I really can't believe it, is this kid the one who sent 'Xiao Lan Bi Er' to the hospital? You don't need to worry, I'm not here to seek revenge..."

Vivian

The dean and the assistant dean assessed Li Ao; although he was slender, he was not merely skin and bones. The slightly fitted long T-shirt showcased a commendable muscle definition. Engaging in a fight also requires capital; a robust physique is essentially the foundation for winning most confrontations.

Forget it, let's just give up!

Dean Teng : ( ーー゙ )

If you don't leave soon, the dean will start hitting people

Henry Bibby : `` ... ... ''

Then I will find a way to investigate whether he has any background; if not, I will look for an opportunity to undermine him

Director Teng's perspective suddenly shifted from a bird's-eye view to a ground-level view, which is the reason he allowed Li Ao to sit and receive education

Then I will inform the dean about this matter and see if the dean can handle him

He gritted his teeth and said, "You need to think carefully. If I report the incident of you injuring Jordan... I am giving you a chance to rephrase your words"

Director Teng regrets having previously taught Henry Bibby the phrases "Wori, tamade, mamai pi" as catchphrases

Li Ao exclaimed, lowering his head and saying: "Auntie, you startled me!"

Vivian interrupted, saying: "Yes, Henry, we are concerned that you might lose your composure, but it is not out of fear of your seeking revenge. Rather, we are worried that in your impulsiveness, after being hospitalized due to the main force, you might also end up in the hospital because Leo will definitely retaliate."

The words ceased, but Dean Teng's steps did not falter; he stepped forward and, together with Vivian, shielded Li Ao behind them

It has only been about thirteen or fourteen months, yet the child's features still retain their youthful innocence, while their height has surged by a head! They are now taller than most members of the basketball and volleyball teams

However, given his current age and status, even if he wanted to seek revenge, he would no longer resort to physical violence; there are numerous means he could employ behind the scenes... Suddenly, Dean Teng was jolted awake.

So dirty

This scoundrel only thinks about treating beautiful female assistants to meals, utterly devoid of any regard for humanity in the presence of the opposite sex

In the first few months after Li Ao enrolled, he would get into a fight every few days, and each time it was she who had to clean up the mess for him

I do not want to," Li Ao replied without hesitation

Henry Bibby: "... and * picture * books ..."

Henry Bibby suddenly brightened his eyes and asked, "Hey, boy, how old are you?"

The three of them stared intently at the flamboyantly dressed middle-aged man in front of them

Henry Bibby seems to be joking, but this child indeed has the physique of an athlete

At that time, I thought it was a child recommended by the old professor, placed right under my nose, so he could take care of him. After all, the air in this place in America is dangerously sweet. He even specifically asked a friend at UCLA to write a recommendation letter for this kid, bringing him to study at USC. This has become the thing he regrets the most in the last two years.

Li Ao's smile vanished, and he gritted his teeth as he said: "He insulted me by calling me Japanese!"

If it were 20 years ago, being scolded like this would have definitely led to a fight

The dean displayed an expression similar to that of Li Ao, and one could even hear the grinding of his teeth! His fists were also clenched tightly!

Director Teng's English name is Sean. He now has a phrase "Woh Ri" stuck in his throat, but he cannot continue to curse. He was already in the wrong, and now he is even more at fault.

He is also resigned to it, in this world that values appearances!

Li Ao revealed a well-behaved smile: "Thank you so much, Aunt Vivian. I will cook dinner tonight!"

Without mentioning the reactions of the three individuals, Li Ao's eyes are now wide open.

What if he has a background

Director Teng spoke in Chinese, and the assistant did not understand. Before she could voice her question, someone outside responded.

Although he has also learned some slang used by Black people for insults, in the context of the United States, only Black individuals can freely use the slang associated with such insults

Looking at Li Ao, who was smiling like a big boy basking in the sunlight, Dean Teng asked expressionlessly: "Can you tell me, what was the reason for this fight?"

This is even more infuriating to him than knowing that Li Ao has gotten into a fight again

August 18, 1999, noon, Office of the Dean of the School of Computer Science, University of Southern California

This physique, this age... Henry Bibby asked: "Boe, do you want to be a part of the great Trojan team?"

Director Teng interrupted the assistant's wandering thoughts and asked, "Vivian, why are you back?"

After receiving the promise of a grand meal, Vivian took the prepared materials to find the department head and the finance office
