But the next second, the intoxicated man suddenly felt a sharp pain in his right hand, and then his entire body flew backward.
“Bang!” After a crisp sound, the intoxicated man slammed heavily on the ground.
“Leo!” Lucy exclaimed joyfully.
Leo, who was coming out of the private room to go to the restroom, happened to see the scene of the intoxicated man harassing Lucy and decisively took action.
“Lucy, go back to the private room; I’ll use the restroom,” Leo said to Lucy.
Lucy nodded and, after giving a glance to the intoxicated man sprawled on the ground, went back to the private room.
When Leo finished using the restroom and walked out, four burly men approached him.
“Kid, you’re pretty arrogant, daring to lay hands on my brother!” The leader of the men took a couple of steps forward, looking at Leo with a sneer.
Leo couldn’t be bothered to talk and simply gave the man a slap.
“Snap!” The crisp sound echoed, and the leading man was directly flipped onto the ground by Leo’s slap.
This scene stunned the other men.
“What the hell are you all standing there for? Teach this kid a lesson for me!” The leader, now nursing his swollen and painful cheek, angrily shouted at his companions.
After exchanging glances, the three men charged at Leo together.
After a few screams, the four men lay neatly on the ground, fear evident in their eyes as they looked at Leo.
Leo, now an advanced spirit master, dealing with these ordinary people was like child’s play.
Back in the private room, Lucy anxiously asked, “Leo, are you okay?”
“I’m fine. Why would anything happen to me? Have you all eaten? If you have, let’s go,” Leo smiled.
The four of them left the private room, but the men lying on the ground, including the intoxicated man, were nowhere to be seen.
Lucy hurried to the front desk to pay the bill, but the waiter informed her that Leo had already taken care of it.
“Leo, I said it’s my treat; how can I face this now?” Lucy said somewhat embarrassed.
Leo chuckled, “Lucy, you’re still a student. When you graduate and start working, you can treat us to a meal then.”
Exiting the restaurant, Leo drove the three of them back home.
The villa had many empty rooms, and during Lucy’s time at Langstel, she naturally stayed in the villa with Nora.
Time flew, and two days had passed.
Today, Leo deliberately dressed in a more formal and presentable outfit because he was going to give a lecture at Langstel Chinese Medicine University.
The campus was bathed in bright sunlight, casting its glow on the treetops, the wide cement paths, the colorful teaching buildings, and the smiling faces of students, making the entire campus lively and vibrant.
There was a time when he was also a part of university life, and watching the students coming and going, Leo couldn’t help but feel a sense of time travel, as if he had returned to his student days.
After communicating with Tyler, Leo chose to teach an open class called “Traditional Chinese Medicine Diagnosis.”
Since it was a new campus area, Leo looked at the time and couldn’t help but quicken his pace.
In the lecture hall at this moment, about a hundred students had gradually taken their seats. Some well-informed students had already spread the news about the arrival of the new teacher Leo, creating a buzz of discussion in the classroom.
“Have you heard? The teacher coming to give the open class today is a well-known traditional Chinese medicine practitioner in our Langstel City.”
“I also know that the teacher who is about to give us a class was personally invited by our school principal.”
“Oh my, what an honor! The principal personally invited him!”
“Do any of you know the age and gender of this Chinese medicine teacher who is about to give us a class? Is it a young man or a young lady?”
“Come on, dreaming! He’s definitely an old Chinese medicine practitioner, probably older than our principal!”
Amidst the students’ enthusiastic discussions, Monica, accompanied by her friends, quietly entered through the back door and casually took seats in the back row of the classroom. Despite Monica’s attempts to keep a low profile, being foreigners caught the attention of many students.
“Foreigners are actually here to attend class. I’ve never seen anything like this before.”
“According to what I heard, these foreigners are from the American Medical Research Society. They came specifically to attend the open class of our Chinese medicine teacher today.”
“My goodness, even people from the American Medical Research Society are here to attend the class. This Chinese medicine teacher must be amazing!”
Leo, outside the classroom, adjusted his attire and then stepped into the classroom, walking straight to the podium. When Leo saw so many people in the classroom, he was somewhat surprised. In Leo’s opinion, as a new teacher with no reputation, few students would choose to attend his class.
Leo cleared his throat, preparing to greet the students and introduce himself. However, a student cadre sitting in the front row stood up and shouted to Leo, “Hey, classmate, which class are you in? Why are you going up to the podium?”
“Mate, this is the open class for ‘Traditional Chinese Medicine Diagnosis.’ Did you enter the wrong classroom?”
“Hurry up and come down from the podium. The teacher who will start the class is about to arrive!”
Other students in the front row also called out to Leo.
Unfortunately, Leo looked too young. Despite wearing formal attire, he still looked like a student. Based on the discussions among the students just now, the teacher about to come to class was expected to be an old Chinese medicine practitioner, not someone like Leo.
Seeing this scene, Monica and her companions, sitting in the back row, couldn’t help but laugh.
Especially Monica, there was a bit of schadenfreude in her heart. Although Leo had impressed her with his strength, his coldness towards her still made her feel uncomfortable. Therefore, she hoped to see Leo make a fool of himself.
Leo pressed his hand to signal everyone to quiet down. He then smiled wryly and said, “Everyone, quiet down. I didn’t enter the wrong place. I am the teacher who will give you an open class today. My name is Leo!”
As Leo finished speaking, the entire classroom suddenly erupted in commotion. The students stared at him with expressions of disbelief.
“No way, such a young teacher, and he’s a Chinese medicine practitioner!”
“I said he was a young man earlier; why didn’t you believe me!”
“Did you guys notice how handsome he looks? I didn’t expect our teacher to be such a handsome guy. I’m definitely attending all his classes from now on, no more skipping!”
