Chapter 817: Waiting for Him to Confess

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Upon seeing a group of about ten teenagers approaching with great vigor from around the street corner, Da Hu’s heart pounded in his chest.

Gu Zi, who had paused in her steps to curiously observe the scene, only served to heighten his anxiety.

He noticed Su Bing, usually so composed, betray a hint of panic. This only served to heighten Da Hu’s own nervousness. He cursed inwardly, berating himself for his well-intentioned actions that had seemingly led to this predicament.

Su Bing was not immune to the panic either. His mother had a strong aversion to lies, and if she were to discover the truth about the situation, her anger would be inevitable. He attempted to mask his unease, suggesting, “Mom, let’s go home.”

Gu Zi nodded, dismissing her initial intention to linger. She and Su Bing began to leave, but they had barely taken a few steps when the group of teenagers reached them.

The leader of the group, a cigarette hanging loosely from his lips, stepped forward. He removed the cigarette and, in a manner reminiscent of a gangster, bowed respectfully to Su Bing.

This unexpected display left Gu Zi dumbfounded, a thrilling melody of heroism involuntarily playing in her mind.

The leader addressed Su Bing, “Big Brother, we’ve long admired your reputation. We wish to become your followers, just like Da Hu and the others. We too have been bullied by that detestable Teacher Zhou. You have the power to help the weak and uphold justice against such tyrants. We are willing to submit to you wholeheartedly. Please, accept us!”

They had learned that the ‘Big Brother’ was to attend a competition today and had timed their arrival to meet him. Fortunately, they had not been late and had managed to catch him.

However, they were oblivious to the fact that their actions had put Su Bing in a difficult position. Unable to hide his anxiety any longer, Su Bing turned to his mother and blurted out, “Mom, I can explain everything.”

Gu Zi glanced at the three teenagers selling fruits at the stall, then at the newly arrived group. For a moment, she was at a loss for words. Her son, the secretive leader, had started recruiting followers without her knowledge.
