Chapter 155
After enjoying a satisfying meal, Carlisle and the others returned to their respective homes. Francis had drunk quite a bit, so Carlisle had to hail a taxi back to school.
Carlisle was immediately taken aback when he entered his dormitory. His roommates stood nervously on either side.
Mike, with a swollen face, was smoking on Carlisle’s bed. Two other young men stood beside him with rolled–up sleeves.
“Mike… What happened?” Carlisle approached him.
Mike narrowed his eyes at Carlisle and snorted. “What happened? It’s all because of you!”
Carlisle put on a grateful expression and said, “Thank you, Mike, for your generous help. Let me treat you and your friends to a feast at A1 Seafood Restaurant tomorrow.”
Mike was hoping to gain some benefits from Carlisle. Seeing Carlisle being so understanding, his expression softened a bit.
“No need for a feast. Just give me three thousand. I still need to buy cigarettes for lan’s men!”
“Three…” Carlisle was dumbfounded. In reality, he didn’t even have one thousand bucks on him. :
“Hm?” Mike’s expression darkened, and his two companions immediately stepped forward. It seemed they wouldn’t let him go easily without getting the money.
Carlisle gritted his teeth and forced a smile. ‘I don’t have that much money on me right now. How about
tomorrow? Come to the dormitory at this time tomorrow!”
“Fine, you better not play with me!” Mike warned before leaving with his companions.
“Damn, Carl, you should consider changing dormitories. With you here, we’re constantly on edge!” Jasper Sutton lamented, sitting on the bed opposite Carlisle.
“Mike was here for a whole hour, so we had to stand just as long. We already had to stand as a punishment during military training, but now we have to continue standing even in our dormitory! Please, have some sympathy for us.”
The other roommates also looked displeased as they glanced at Carlisle.
At this moment, Daniel spoke up/“Carlisle, I think you should tell the teachers. You can just let Mike push you around all the time.”
Carlisle smiled helplessly. “Do you think telling the teachers will help?”
There wouldn’t be such gang–like behavior in school if telling the teachers worked. But this situation wouldn’t last long.

2/2
Once Heath dealt with lan, the underground forces in several nearby areas would be reshuffled. These small gangs in the school would have to submit to Heath’s authority.
Daniel shrugged. “It’s up to you if you have the money. I’ve warned you, anyway.”
At that moment, Shane Foster suddenly asked, “I’m going downstairs‘ to buy some drinks. Does anyone
need anything?”
“Help me get two packs of beef jerky!”
“I’ll have a bottle of coke!”
Several classmates immediately handed money to Shane.”
“As usual, 50 cents for the delivery fee!” Shane said with a playful smile.
Carlisle took out a hundred–dollar bill from his pocket. “Today’s incident has caused inconvenience to everyone. Let me treat you all to some snacks and drinks. Shane, use this to buy something for them!”
“Wow, you sure are generous!”
