After the end-of-semester team member challenge officially ended, the first semester of the freshman year also came to an end.

Shangjing College returned to calm after a brief period of excitement. The entire campus seemed very empty except for a few people who took the initiative to stay for training.

But the difference is that with the beginning of the holiday, Shangjing City has become much more lively, and the streets are bustling with people.

Chen Feng returned to the community and was speechless about the banner hanging high above the entrance of the community. There was a line of large characters written on it: Warmly celebrating the 23rd anniversary of this community not being weirdly invaded by monsters.

The strange thing is that the residents in the community usually look disgusted when they mention this matter, but at this time they are willing to show off the good luck of their community everywhere.

What a contradiction.

"Son, why are you back today?"

Chen Feng did not say hello to his parents and returned home a day early.

""I'm just thinking about you guys." Chen Feng said sweetly.

Jiang Hua brought Chen Feng slippers and said,"It's just right. When your dad comes back from buying roast chicken, we'll have dinner. I'll send him a message and ask your dad to buy more vegetables." Before

Jiang Hua finished speaking, footsteps were heard in the corridor.

As soon as he heard the heavy sound, he knew it was Chen Jiansheng.

"Hey, why did my son come back early?"

"Come on, come on, it's time to eat some roast chicken."

Chen Jiansheng walked into the room with a big bag of food in his left hand and a smile on his face.

But Chen Feng discovered that Chen's father's right hand was actually in a plaster cast, hanging on his chest with a strap.

""Dad? What happened to you?"

Chen Feng frowned and said seriously.

Chen Jiansheng shook his head,"It's nothing, I just fell down."

"It's just a dislocation, not particularly serious."

Chen Feng didn't believe what his father said. Putting aside the question of whether it was reasonable for a hand to be broken like this after a fall, the bruises on his face and the corners of his mouth were obviously caused by human factors.

""Dad, Mom, what's going on?"

Chen Feng grabbed the bag of roast chicken, as if to say,"If you don't tell me, you can't eat it."

Chen Jiansheng and Jiang Hua looked at each other, knowing that they couldn't hide it, so they had to admit it.

"Your dad was beaten up at the construction site." Jiang Hua sighed.

Chen Feng was surprised. Chen Jiansheng, Chen's father, started to do odd jobs at the construction site after the awakening era. He would get off work on time and never attend any drinking parties.

Chen Jiansheng was a famous good man. He didn't have a good relationship with the people at the construction site, but he didn't make enemies with anyone. No wonder there were no lanterns at home this year. Chen Jiansheng's right hand was injured, and Jiang Hua couldn't touch him at that height.

"Dad, what's going on?" Chen Feng asked.

Chen Jiansheng looked depressed. He sat at the dining table, tore off a roasted chicken leg and took a bite. He said,"That damn Li Yao, what's the matter with the new official taking office? Not only did he delay our salary, but he also wanted to deduct 30% of our salary for no reason."

"And use this part of the salary to treat those awakened people to enjoy themselves, what kind of thing is this?"

Chen Feng sat down opposite Chen Jiansheng,"Dad, I remember it was Uncle Wang who managed you before, right?"

"Your uncle Wang has been transferred to another position. This Li Yao said he is a relative of someone with connections. He must be someone powerful."

"Less than two years after starting engineering, I became a project manager"

"Relying on their status as awakened people, they form cliques and factions. Now the awakened people and us non-awakened people on the construction site are almost enemies."

Chen Feng picked up another chicken leg and stuffed it into his mouth. While chewing, he asked,"So, Dad, were you beaten because you felt unfair and spoke out to resist?"

Chen Jiansheng didn't say anything, but just ate the chicken in one go.

Jiang Hua on the side said,"It would be great if your dad had such courage."

"He led a strike and march, signed a joint letter of protest, and surrounded the construction site with a group of workers."

"Then he asked the man called Li Yao to call a group of awakened people to beat him up."

Chen Feng:"......"

"Mom, do you have any misunderstanding about the word courageous?"

Jiang Hua pulled away the chair and snatched the chicken leg from Chen Jiansheng's hand.

"Times are different now, do you think it is the same as before?"

Jiang Hua complained, but she was more worried about Chen Jiansheng's health.

"You are the one who dares not do anything on weekdays, but you are the first to do something at this critical moment.

Chen Jiansheng retorted:"This is called a real man who only does the most important things."

"Besides, he is so great as an awakened one? He just got lucky and awakened. Why does he feel superior to others?"

"We all do the same work. If he built the building by himself because of his awakened ability, I wouldn't say anything. But Li Yao and his followers are just people who take money but do nothing. I just want fairness."Jiang Hua looked at Chen Feng helplessly:"Look at your father, it doesn't make sense."

"Now, people who rely on connections don’t have to pay a penny or go to jail."

"As for you, you are injured and you may lose your job."

Chen Feng looked at the two people who were arguing about fairness and unfairness and suddenly raised his head and asked,"Mom and Dad, who is this Li Yao?"

In the Awakening Era, although the awakened have obtained certain privileges, the state has also exercised stricter control over them.

This kind of bad incident did not receive the punishment it deserved, which is enough to show that Li Yao's identity is not simple.

Jiang Hua sighed and said,"Alas, this Li Yao seems to have some guild background in his family."

Chen Feng frowned slightly,"What guild?"

"It seems to be the largest guild in our city. What is it called?......Jiutian Guild, yes, that's it."

Chen Feng raised his eyebrows,"Mom, are you sure?"

"I'm sure, and I heard that he has made a lot of money with this relationship. Many people are unhappy with him, but they can't do anything about him."

Chen Feng suddenly smiled, and then the solemn expression on his face disappeared.

He began to tear the roast chicken and brought bowls and chopsticks from the kitchen.

Chen Jiansheng and Jiang Hua stared at Chen Feng in confusion.

"Why are you looking at me? Come eat. I'll go buy another one later."

Chen Feng sat down and started to eat heartily.

"Son, you don't want to get involved in this matter, do you?"

"Mom didn't tell you because she wanted you to study hard. This is our adult business."

"Mom, the other party is an awakener. If we want to talk to him, we must at least have an awakener on our side."

Chen Feng was referring to himself.

Jiang Hua was about to say something when Chen Feng took out a bank card from his pocket.

"Dad, I just received a 200,000 yuan scholarship from the college. You can use this money to go to the hospital and find an awakener to heal your injuries. We are not short of money now and don’t need conservative treatment."

Chen Jiansheng and Jiang Hua were stunned and stared at the bank card in surprise.

"How much?"

"Two hundred thousand?"

Chen Feng was busy eating and didn't look up."Yes, two hundred thousand. The rest is just enough to buy a house. It's not a big deal to live in this old community for too long."
