Physical mage, challenge me to a solo duel!
Chapter 46 The Wu Family
Once Qi Xiaohao had cleared his mind and put down his phone with satisfaction, he remembered what Wang Yi and Xu Jun had been talking about.
"Wouldn't Wu Guan's father be that petty? He only beat his son up, right?" So Qi Xiaohao started thinking, "How about we give him a gift?"
"It's surprising that you would back down?" Wang Yi was greatly surprised.
"No, we might appear to be offering gifts to appease him, but once Wu Guan's father accepts the gifts, we'll have evidence of him taking bribes. If he dares to cause trouble again, we'll be like a suicide bomber, we'll bring him down no matter what!"
Qi Xiaohao chuckled, looking just like a villain.
Wang Yi was speechless; he had underestimated the chubby boy.
After a moment's consideration, Wang Yi shook his head and refused this obviously suicidal behavior: "It's better not to. We only have some conflicts with Wu Guan right now, which are at most minor disputes between peers. If you do this, you'll be directly escalating this matter to his father."
Upon hearing this, Qi Xiaohao glanced at Wang Yi, greatly astonished: "Brother E, you beat Wu Guan to a pulp in front of so many classmates, are you sure it was just a minor conflict?"
Wang Yi almost laughed out of anger. These words were not the same as when you were crying and begging me not to lose, were they?
Qi Xiaohao continued, "Even if losing a duel is just a minor conflict, Wu Guan and Fang Yu are already together. Because of your interference, they're probably going to break up now. It's the grudge of having your wife stolen, so it can't be considered a minor conflict, right?"
Hearing this, Wang Yi felt a headache coming on and quickly denied it: "Stop, stop, stop! Don't just spout nonsense. What does their puppy love have to do with me? And when did I ever interfere?"
"It wasn't considered meddling before, but just before the fight started, Wu Guan and Fang Yu clearly made their relationship official, so you can forget about it."
"And the wager of your duel was that whoever lost would have to get lost and stop chasing Fang Yu, Brother E, have you forgotten?" Qi Xiaohao kindly reminded him.
"Damn it!" Wang Yi slapped his forehead; he had completely forgotten about this.
Fang Yu was the school beauty goddess of Wang Yi's original self, but in his eyes, she was just a passerby, at most a trigger for the duel.
So after deleting him from her friends list, Wang Yi never even thought about him.
"The shame of losing face and the hatred of having one's wife stolen, I don't know if Manager Wu can tolerate it... Anyway, if it were me, I definitely wouldn't be able to tolerate it."
Qi Xiaohao clicked his tongue, somewhat laboriously crossed his legs, and started shaking them smugly, then urged:
"If Wu Guan causes trouble, his own father can't possibly not side with his son, so let's strike first. I'll take out my living expenses for a year and send them directly to Wu Guan's father, hoping to get him a suspended death sentence."
Wang Yi's face scrunched up, and he tapped his head in pain: "Maybe we should consider transferring schools."
While Wang Yi and Xu Jun were asking about Wu Manqi, Wu Manqi was in the study telling her second uncle, Wu Jie, about what had happened that morning.
This includes the reason for Wang Yi's duel with Wu Guan, the process of the duel, the final result, and the fact that she attacked Wu Guan.
Discuss the matter objectively and impartially.
Finally, Wu Manqi didn't forget to introduce Wang Yi's Healing Ray to Wu Jie. This was a rare-grade medical magic that she had been longing to absorb for three years of high school, but had never been able to achieve.
Wu Jie listened very attentively to Wu Manqi finish explaining everything before smiling and praising her, "Xiaoqi, you handled this matter very well."
Wu Manqi nodded, accepting Wu Jie's praise without hesitation.
The reason she made a point of explaining this trivial matter of the duel to Wu Jie was because she was afraid that it might cause some trouble later.
Sometimes, the cause of many major events is often a trivial matter that is not noticed by others.
She is going to be admitted to the Imperial University of Magic next year, and her second uncle, Wu Jie, is also going to be promoted to the top position. At this critical juncture, no accidents can be allowed to happen.
Because this is often the time when unexpected things are most likely to happen.
"I'm usually busy with work, so I haven't been able to properly guide Wu Guan. Xiao Qi, you should keep a closer eye on Wu Guan at school. Young people are hot-blooded and impulsive. As his older sister, you should teach him what you need to teach him, and if he doesn't listen, you should discipline him."
After attacking, heal; after healing, attack again. It's a good way to make use of him and practice healing magic.
Even if we break that brat Wu Guan's legs in the end, we can't let him affect your future.
Wu Jie seemed to be joking, but his tone was unusually serious.
"Second Uncle, you flatter me. Although Manager Wu is a bit rash and doesn't think things through, he is still someone who listens to advice," Wu Manqi explained to Manager Wu.
Wu Jie was somewhat angry: "Wu Guan really didn't think things through. I've always told him to keep a low profile at school, but I never expected that this kid would actually get into a duel with someone over a girl."
"It happened so suddenly, and I hadn't noticed the conflict between him and Wang Yi beforehand. Besides, it's not really Wu Guan's fault; Wang Yi provoked us first." Wu Manqi sighed, "It's also my fault for not thinking things through; I should have told you sooner."
I initially thought it was a minor matter. Wu Guan was quite skilled, and if he won, that would be fine. Besides, Wu Guan wasn't the aggressive type. Moreover, he specifically called me in before the fight, intending to treat Wang Yi promptly, showing he was very thoughtful.
I just didn't expect him to lose so badly, especially in front of so many classmates. Wu Guan is still young, so I'm worried he might harbor resentment. If someone else is fanning the flames, he might do something irrational in the heat of the moment, and things could end badly.
"Hmph, provocation? All they did was utter a couple of harsh words. They didn't even send him to the hospital. What's so unacceptable about that? This kid didn't tell me about this either. It seems he thinks he's already a mage and capable of handling things on his own, so he doesn't take my words seriously."
Wu Jie snorted coldly: "A duel? This kid really dares to agree. If I had known, I would have just beaten him into a two-week hospital stay, so he wouldn't have made such a fool of himself and caused trouble."
Wu Manqi remained silent; she didn't know how to respond to that.
"Xiaoqi, I'll have to trouble you to handle this matter. It's not convenient for me to get involved, so please find an opportunity to invite the other party to dinner and try to resolve the conflict. As for Manager Wu, I'll talk to him and make sure nothing goes wrong afterward," Wu Jie instructed.
Wu Jie's decision not to intervene was clearly intended to keep the matter within the context of the younger generation, treating it as a normal friction between students, and to prevent the situation from escalating.
"Okay, Second Uncle, I understand. Leave this to me." Wu Manqi nodded and agreed.
She naturally understood what her second uncle meant.
As for how to prevent his subordinates from causing trouble under the guise of standing up for Wu Guan, Second Uncle naturally knew the answer and didn't need her to remind him further.
Some things may seem like people are just trying to curry favor with their superiors and acting on their own initiative, but who knows who the real superior might be?
"Alright, Xiaoqi, have lunch at home. Let your second aunt cook for you," Wu Jie said. "Call Wu Guan over; I want to talk to him."
Wu Manqi nodded and got up to leave.
Upon opening the study door, Wu Guan, who had been waiting outside, looked quite uneasy.
"Go inside." Wu Manqi patted Wu Guan's shoulder, then leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Listen to whatever your dad says, take it to heart, think it over afterwards, and remember, never argue back."
