I’m Really a Superstar

In the neighborhood.

The apprehended criminals started to shift the blame.

"Comrade Policeman! We\'ve been wronged!"

"That woman started beating us up the moment she jumped down!"

"Yeah, see how badly she\'s beaten us up! Arrest her! Quickly arrest her!"

"Sh-She\'s such a bully!"

When these three people started protesting, before Yang Shu and the police could even react, the onlookers and neighbors used their spittle to drown the culprits! Some of these neighbors only arrived after Yang Shu had rounded up the criminals, but some of them had witnessed the entire scene unfold in front of them.

A grandma said, "Ptui!"

A grandpa said, "I saw you three little bastards throwing stones at Teacher Little Zhang\'s windows. My apartment is right below Little Zhang\'s place and one of the stones nearly even hit my apartment windows. How dare you all claim to be innocent? This is what you three deserve! You deserved to get beaten up by this young lady! I\'m an eyewitness to the entire situation! Comrade Policemen, it was they who did it! I saw it with my very own eyes! When that young lady jumped down from above, the three of them wanted to fight her. In the end, they were all taken down by her!"

"Right, I saw it too!"

"These sorts of people ought to be shot!"

"How awful!"

"Smashing Teacher Little Zhang\'s apartment windows? Why don\'t you three go to hell instead!"

"Yeah, Little Zhang is such a good person!"

"Arrest them! Lock them up for eight to ten years! Don\'t let them out!"

"They were definitely sent here to retaliate against Teacher Zhang!"

"That\'s right! Teacher Zhang has revealed too much of the truth this time in his air pollution documentary. Too many people have been offended!"

The crowd was in a frenzy as everyone pointed at those three people and shouted at them!

The three criminals still protested.

Zhang Ye looked at the three of them who smashed and broke his apartment\'s windows, then sneered at them. He thought to himself that they should just be content with the outcome for now. Don\'t you three know who you bumped into? The person you encountered was a martial arts master who wasn\'t too far from achieving concealed power, and also the true successor to Taiji Fist. Oh, right! Perhaps you didn\'t know this, but even though this apartment was rented by me, the owner of the apartment is staying just across the hall. You were trying to wreck a martial arts grandmaster\'s property, so you should be counting your blessings for being able to sit there unscathed!

Zhang Ye walked up to them. "Not happy about it? Shall we have a chat then?"

The three criminals immediately wilted and dropped their tough act!

"Close the car door!"

"Quick, close the car door!"

The incidents involving Zhang Ye beating up people had been reported in the news on more than one occasion.

A few of the police officers hurriedly tried to stop him. "Teacher Zhang, don\'t lower yourself to their level. Please don\'t lower yourself to their level." He turned around to the person in the police vehicle and said, "Quickly, start the car. Get them out of here for now!"

The police car drove off but the crowd watching the commotion still did not disperse.

The police officers looked at Zhang Ye. "We questioned those three people just now, but they did not reveal anything at all. Teacher Zhang, can you try to remember if you have offended anyone? They clearly came here with a purpose since they already knew your address. This was a premeditated crime for sure, so we have to investigate their motives for carrying out the act."

Zhang Ye glanced at them, then said, "Who I have offended?"

"Yes, please let us know in detail." A cop had already taken out pen and paper to take down notes.

Zhang Ye simply nodded and said, "The Writers\' Association, the literary world, the Redology world, the education world, the mathematics world, the calligraphy world, the crosstalk world, the Koreans, the Japanese, oh, and the entertainment circle, the scientific community, the steel making industry, and the coal industry. I have offended all of them before on the whole and probably some other industries that I can\'t remember right now."

The police officers wiped at their sweat.

The neighbors around them were amused. "Pfft!"

Actually, the police were just following protocol when they asked him that question, but when Zhang Ye answered them, they eventually remembered something that made them not know whether to laugh or cry. This was Zhang Ye they were talking about. He was the hooligan of the entertainment circle. Just listen to the way this fellow had chosen his words when asked about who he had ever offended. He did not answer by saying what people he had offended or offering up any specific names. The moment he opened his mouth to talk about it, all the different types of industries, communities, or circles got mentioned! Yes. This fellow had really offended way too many people. There were so many that not only could they not remember who, even Zhang Ye himself could hardly remember them. If there was really a need to come up with a list of people he had offended, they might not be able to complete the list even if they were given three days and nights. The amount of people he had offended would number in the millions, if not the tens of millions. Asking Zhang Ye such a question was meaningless in the first place!

An old cop coughed and asked, "Then, to put it another way, who have you offended lately?"

Zhang Ye gave it some thought and said, "Probably someone involved in the incident regarding the air pollution documentary, I guess."

The old cop acknowledged, "I understand."

After a while, the rest of the police left.

The neighbors around him cautioned Zhang Ye out of good intentions.

"Teacher Zhang, you must be careful."

"We will help you keep a lookout!"

"Right, just be careful for yourself. They might be trying to take revenge against you!"

"Those bastards!"

"You have really offended too many people this time!"

Zhang Ye smiled and gave a fist and palm salute to them. "Thank you everyone for your concern, thank you!"

Back upstairs.

Zhang Ye and the others came back upstairs to his rental apartment.

Yang Shu said unhappily, "Senior Bro, I didn\'t do anything wrong. Why did you criticize me?"

Rao Aimin signaled Zhang Ye with her eyes and gestured her chin at Yang Shu.

Chenchen looked at Yang Shu like she was looking at some fool.

But right now, Zhang Ye could not bear to scold her at all. He stood beside one of the broken windows and peered down. At this height, even he could not guarantee that he would not get injured. Although his martial arts were much better than Yang Shu\'s, he had never before jumped from such a height. He could not understand how it would feel to do that. Looking at his junior martial sister who he couldn\'t really take seriously, Zhang Ye felt quite touched at this moment. She might be a little rash, dumb, and foolish, but when she encountered trouble, she was still rather capable at handling it! Speaking of which, she and he had become fellow disciples for just a few days, but look at what she was already doing for him. She was not careless at all, as she\'d rather jump down from a height to ensure that she could capture those three criminals and give Zhang Ye an explanation.

It was at this moment that Zhang Ye truly saw her as his junior martial sister!

Zhang Ye said, "I\'m not criticizing you. I was just worried that you\'d get into trouble. If something like this happens again, you must be more careful. Don\'t be rash anymore, understand?"

Yang Shu nodded when she heard him say that. "I understand."

Rao Aimin looked at him and said, "What is it? Is it really connected to the air pollution documentary?"

"I\'m quite sure it is," Zhang Ye said.

...

Such news was definitely not going to be containable.

Before long, the news was reporting on it and the Internet blew up again!

"What?"

"The windows of Zhang Ye\'s home were smashed?"

"Damn! Damn! Damn!"

"They\'re totally trying to provoke him!"

"No, it is definitely a warning, a threat!"

"Motherfucker, who the fuck is responsible for it?"

"Nobody knows. The police station is still carrying out their investigation. I heard that the people involved were hired by someone to cause trouble, but they didn\'t manage to find out who was behind it!"

"It\'s clearly connected to the air pollution documentary!"

"Those bastards! The retaliation has already started this soon?"

"Is Teacher Zhang alright?"

"I heard that he\'s fine. He wasn\'t around when it happened."

"The audacity of those people! Teacher Zhang, you must be very careful!"

At this moment, a rather popular Weibo user with the handle of BigV said: "@ZhangYe Be careful. I just heard from some friends about this and it seems like there\'s someone who has spread the word that they would be dealing with you soon. It might not only be a single person. I even heard that someone has explicitly said that you could start preparing your will in the meantime! I don\'t know how true that is, but just be careful anyway."

The netizens were getting anxious.

"Then what can be done?"

"Yeah, what can we do?"

"Can Teacher Zhang really handle this by himself?"

"Th-These people are way too lawless!"

"Prepare his will? Fuck!"

"Do you guys think that the rumors are true? If it is, the police better be informed!"

"Right, we need to quickly protect Teacher Zhang!"

At the apartment.

Zhang Ye\'s friends started calling him anxiously.

"Zhang\'er, did your apartment get wrecked?"

"It was only a few window panes."

"Did you see what they said online? Someone spread the word that they would be dealing with you soon!"

"I haven\'t read that yet."

"Quickly go and have a look then!"

Zhang Ye went online and had a quick browse. He saw those comments and simply laughed it off. He immediately posted: "You people want to deal with me? I\'ll be waiting."

Following that, he threw out yet another Weibo post that stunned the entire country!

A will?

Hur hur.

Zhang Ye typed coolly:

"Those born in this world must sometime retire.

"Why not return to the land o\'th\' expired?

"This world and the other are two the same.

"It\'s just wand\'ring \'round in a foreign shire."

The world-famous poem by Tang Bohu from his world, "Deathbed Poem," was thrown out by Zhang Ye!

This was Zhang Ye\'s attitude to the threats!

It could be seen clearly from this poem!

"How awesome!"

"Teacher Zhang!"

"I give you a perfect score for this poemmmmmmmm!"

"Why not return to the land o\'th\' expired? It\'s just wand\'ring \'round in a foreign shire?"

How domineering!

How fucking cool!
