The Prisoner Who Came Back a King
Chapter 59
Even Tu Liguo, standing nearby, couldn't stay calm.
He looked up at Ye Feng, his voice trembling slightly, "Ye... Feng, is what Director Zhao said true?"
Tu Liguo's eyes were filled with anticipation, hoping to get an answer from Ye Feng.
The old man had been a cautious teacher for decades, with students all over the world.
But his most outstanding and proud student was Ye Feng.
When Ye Feng was imprisoned back then, he couldn't sleep well for months, unable to understand.
How could such an excellent and outstanding child do something so unimaginable?
Clearly, he was an all-around excellent student with a gentle temperament. How could he be involved in murder and rape?
Moreover, the various charges added up to dozens, which was no exaggeration to say it was beyond words.
He knew the immense pressure of carrying such a reputation, and he was more eager than anyone to know if Ye Feng was wronged.
Seeing the old man so agitated, Ye Feng sighed in his heart, "Mr. Tu, someone indeed framed me back then."
"But it's all in the past now. What's the point of bringing it up again?"
Tu Liguo got his answer, and the wrinkles on his face instantly smoothed out, revealing a full smile, "Good job, I knew you wouldn't be that kind of person."
"Many teachers at the school used to laugh at me, saying my student became a nationally infamous criminal."
"I knew I was never wrong about you."
Tu Liguo said with relief.
Ye Feng saw the expression on the old man's face and felt a twinge of guilt, knowing that his situation had also put a lot of pressure on this teacher.
"Teacher, even if I speak out, no one will believe me. After all, the verdict back then was made public!"
"Mr. Ye, if you want to overturn the case, I might be able to help a bit."
Zhao An spoke again.
Ye Feng smiled slightly and said, "Director Zhao, I appreciate your kindness."
"But this matter is not something you can get involved in. The power of those people back then far exceeds your imagination."
Although Zhao An's position wasn't low, he couldn't influence Ye Feng's case back then.
After all, the power of the Ye family was there.
Even now, Ye Feng had to carefully plan and not act rashly if he wanted to deal with the Ye family.
Not to mention a small figure like Zhao An.
If Ye Feng used the power of the Shenzhou Guard, it would be easy to erase the Ye family.
But that's not what he wanted to see. After all, his reputation had already attracted the attention of many foreign forces.
If he rashly used the Shenzhou Guard, there was a risk of exposing his identity, which would lead to endless trouble.
Carrying some already established charges and being harassed by foreign forces, Ye Feng preferred to live a stable life.
Plus, he still needed to hide his identity and deceive those behind the Ye family.
So now was not the time to clear his past charges.
Zhao An was very surprised by Ye Feng's refusal. If it were someone else, they would probably be eager to clear their name.
Who would want to live with such grievances in this world?
Although Zhao An couldn't figure out Ye Feng's thoughts, he then remembered that Ye Feng might have another identity.
He felt a bit relieved, as he had a military background and knew that some people needed to use special identities to disguise their true selves.
To achieve a purpose of blending in.
So he didn't insist but continued, "Mr. Ye, if you ever change your mind, you can always find me."
Zhao An gave a promise.
"Definitely!"
Ye Feng responded casually.
"In that case, I won't disturb you any longer."
Zhao An was about to leave, as this kind of class reunion wasn't a suitable place for him to stay.
Ye Feng didn't try to keep him and said directly, "Director Zhao, thank you for today, take care!"
Zhao An nodded and turned to leave.
Ye Feng's situation left everyone with mixed feelings, not expecting that Ye Feng was actually wronged.
Some people believed it, as Ye Feng was known for his gentle nature during his school years.
Throughout high school, apart from some conflicts with He Chunqing, he didn't have any disputes with anyone.
Some didn't believe it, as Zhao An only mentioned that there were doubts about the case, which couldn't prove Ye Feng's innocence.
As for the claims of being wronged, they were just Ye Feng's own words, not very credible.
Moreover, Ye Feng was publicly convicted back then, and many people had more faith in the law.
Ye Feng didn't care about these people's attitudes, as from today's stance, there would be few opportunities to interact with these classmates in the future.
The reason he was willing to say he was wronged was out of consideration for Tu Liguo's feelings.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have bothered to explain.
With Zhao An's departure, Fu Hai finally relaxed his tense heart.
He was really afraid that Ye Feng would take advantage of Zhao An's support and come over to beat him up again.
At this moment, He Chunqing, who had gone out to see off Li Donglin, returned.
With a smile and a hint of malice in his eyes, he said to everyone, "Sorry about earlier, we're all classmates, there's no need to make things so tense."
"Fu Hai, apologize to Ye Feng."
What's going on?
What does He Chunqing mean?
The change was too fast, wasn't it?
Everyone's minds couldn't keep up with He Chunqing's change of face.
Even Fu Hai was bewildered.
But under He Chunqing's gaze, he still stood up, reluctantly saying, "Ye Feng, I'm sorry, I was out of line earlier."
Ye Feng sneered, not responding. These two were starting their double act again.
If they could debut and enter the entertainment industry, winning an award would be a sure thing.
This gathering no longer held much meaning. Ye Feng prepared to leave, saying goodbye to Tu Liguo.
He turned and walked out of the private room, smiling slightly as he passed by He Chunqing, "He Chunqing, I think you'd be quite suited to guard the door."
With that, he left, leaving He Chunqing a bit dumbfounded.
Su Weiwei saw this, said goodbye to everyone, and also left the private room.
The atmosphere here was really not conducive to harmony.
Watching Su Weiwei leave with Ye Feng, He Chunqing's eyes almost shot fire, but he held back his anger.
In the hallway outside.
Ye Feng and Su Weiwei walked side by side.
Seeing the wine stains still on Ye Feng's face from Fu Hai's earlier splash, she took out a tissue from her bag and wiped it for him.
"Fu Hai was too much."
Su Weiwei said indignantly as she wiped.
The two looked very close now, like a couple, with the wife tenderly wiping her husband's face.
Ye Feng felt uncomfortable and was about to refuse and push Su Weiwei's hand away when suddenly the door of a nearby room opened.
Two graceful figures walked out.
Ye Feng froze, standing still, staring straight at Liu Yingying in front of him.
