Chapter 201: Chapter 139: The Martial Saint Among Men, Outstanding Youth Representative, Douyin Fans Skyrocket!_5

PHEW—

Standing in the small grove after finishing the Hidden Force version of the Northern Sect’s Eight Pieces of Brocade, Zhang Beixing exhaled deeply. A faint sound, like rolling thunder, accompanied his breath. Inside his body, the blood that had been rushing like a torrential river finally quieted. It grew thick, almost like paste, flowing only with his breathing. He moved his body, expelling the accumulated sweat.

Zhang Beixing was about to find a wooden post to practice striking it underwater and test the power of his Hidden Force when his phone suddenly rang.

”Daddy, your son is calling! Daddy, your son’s call—”

The urgent ringtone blared from Zhang Beixing’s bag.

Hearing this, Zhang Beixing paused his intended water-striking practice. He walked over to his backpack and fished out his phone.

He saw an incoming call from an unknown number with a Shishi area code.

At this sight, Zhang Beixing frowned slightly. This must be some telemarketing call, he thought, and didn’t hesitate to hang up.

He assumed the caller would give up after he hung up. But unexpectedly, the caller was quite persistent. If one call didn’t go through, they’d immediately try a second. This continued until Zhang Beixing had hung up on them seven times in just three minutes.

Just how stubborn is this telemarketer? Never gives up,

Zhang Beixing thought, getting a bit impatient. So, after a moment, he decided to answer the eighth call.Zhang Beixing answered and took the offensive, ”Didn’t I tell you not to call me during this period? The flour hasn’t arrived yet, so don’t rush! Don’t you know the cops are on high alert these days? By the way, what about that guy I told you to deal with? Is it done? If not...”

BANG! BANG! Zhang Beixing hammered a nearby tree twice, emitting a dull thud. He gasped for breath, ”The usual place! Make sure you clean up these two I’ve got as well!”

After the commotion on Zhang Beixing’s end, there was a dead silence from the other side of the call for a moment.

After a short pause, a female voice finally came through, saying, ”Hello, Mr. Zhang Beixing, this is the Shishi Municipal Government. We are calling to request your presence to receive the ’Outstanding Youth Representative’ award and certificate... Your entire conversation has been recorded, and the police were listening in. You...”

Before the woman could finish, sounds of confusion came from the phone, followed by Inspector Bai’s distinctively deep voice, ”Hello, is this Zhang Beixing? What were you just talking about? Flour? Dealing with someone?”

CLICK!

Upon hearing Inspector Bai’s voice, Zhang Beixing hung up without hesitation. Then, he immediately called back.

Hearing the slightly bewildered female voice on the other end, Zhang Beixing’s face broke into an unprecedented smile. His voice sounded so gentle it almost seemed to bubble with charm as he said, ”Hello, you must be from the Shishi Municipal Government, right? Hello, I am Zhang Beixing, the one who acted bravely for a just cause. I suppose you’re calling now to present me with the ’Outstanding Youth Representative’ certificate, is that correct? Please tell me the address, and I’ll be right over, honey~”

”Ah, this...” Hearing Zhang Beixing’s words, the young woman on the phone was quite baffled.

But she still dutifully relayed the location of the Shishi Municipal Government.

「One hour later.」

Holding the Outstanding Youth Representative medal and certificate issued by the Shishi Municipal Government, Zhang Beixing walked out. He was flanked on his left and right by Inspector Bai and Li Shuo, two formidable figures of both law and lawlessness.

Inspector Bai’s eyes continuously sized up Zhang Beixing. After a moment, he asked, ”Are you sure you haven’t done anything illegal?”

”I’m certain, absolutely certain, extremely sure! Inspector Bai, surely you know what kind of person I, Zhang Beixing, am? An Outstanding Youth Representative, a good citizen through and through!” Zhang Beixing vehemently asserted his innocence.

To this, Inspector Bai raised an eyebrow, asking, ”Then what about that phone call just now?”

”That’s because I suspected it was a scam call, so I said those things,” Zhang Beixing explained with a pained expression.

Who could have imagined the Shishi Municipal Government’s phone number would be so plain and unremarkable, without any distinguishing features? Normally, shouldn’t official phone lines have some distinguishing feature or a clear identification? he mused.

”Young man, it’s good to be wary of scams, but you... went a bit overboard. You should at least confirm who it is before making such a scene. Otherwise, what if a city leader calls you one day to attend an Outstanding Youth Representative symposium, and you pull a stunt like this? What would they think?”

”Yes, yes, you’re right. I’ll definitely remember that for next time.”

Zhang Beixing agreed, then dutifully returned to Shi University to start preparing for his final exams.

「At night.」

While scrolling through Douyin, Zhang Beixing came across a video of himself receiving the Outstanding Youth Representative medal at the Shishi Municipal Government.

I’m quite photogenic, he couldn’t help but think. Now, I should be considered a minor celebrity, right?

So he promptly shared the video to his own Douyin account.

Before long, he received numerous likes and comments from netizens.

”666! The blogger has really made it, becoming Shishi’s Outstanding Youth Representative!”

”Exactly! This is all thanks to us, the original old-school fans! Without our support, how could the blogger have gotten to where he is today?”
