The Urban Dao Child. Chapter 55
Advertisement
Yang Dao's chopper took flight, and in a couple of hours, he reached home. He called Professor Dew and found that she was at home. He hurried downstairs, pressed the doorbell. He greeted the beauty professor, then walked inside. As soon as he took a step inside, he frowned. In his bedroom, a foreign fragrance was lingering.
He walked outside, found that the professor was in the living room. He asked, "Did that student of yours visited my room?" his voice and temperament had completely changed. He was speaking with a demeanor of superiority.
Professor Dew sighed and said, "Yes, she went in. I tried to stop her, but we both had some drinks. We touched nothing but wanted to see the decoration. We wanted to see how the rich people's bedroom would look like." her voice was getting smaller with every word. While Yang Dao balled fists were tightening up. It was so tight that the skin turned pale. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
Then he spoke, "I asked you to live in my place because I did not want you to overwork. You called over a student without informing me, I did not say a word. In return, I only asked you to never enter my room. You had some drinks that's okay, but handling the liquor is also upon you. I expected you to be more professional, Miss Kylie Dew." he was angry. His way to address the professor changed suddenly.
The beauty noticed rage in Yang Dao's voice. She wanted to rebuke but found no comebacks. After all, Yang Dao treated her fairly. The boy gulped and stretched out his hand. He said, "My keycard, please return it. The floor below has all the sufficient commodities for you to live. I DO NOT WELCOME YOU OR YOUR STUDENT IN MY HOUSE ANYMORE." he did not raise his voice. But he emphasized the last sentence a lot.
Kylie Dew was stunned, but then she nodded, handed over the key card. Yang Dao said nothing and after taking the key card he went to his room.
BANG!
The door was closed strongly. Yang Dao was angry. Inside the room, he started punching the wall. A section was inlaid with slight impressions. His fists were red and bruised. He was furious.
...
Outside, the bang was so strong that the professor flinched. Then she heard some dull thuds. The rooms were soundproof, but the sound will leak out if you punch the soundproofed walls themselves. Professor Dew felt guilty in her heart. Suddenly she heard a voice, "Professor, what happened just now. Are you okay?"
It was Nika Orlenko, the blonde doll who right now was wearing the Professor's nightclothes. It was as if she just woke up. She had a good relationship with the professor. The professor rushed to her and said, "Get our stuff, we are moving downstairs. Yang Dao was furious, I told you we should not go inside his room. He does not like that. Come, we are going."

The girl frown and said, "Why is he so special, is he not just Feng Yun's brother? Humph, stingy guy."
Kylie Dew rebuked her sharply, "Shut up, Nika. Are you any better than to accuse others? Did he stop you from staying in his house? Did he disrespect you? It is this personality of yours which is always at fault."
Nika fell silent. Then the two ladies brushed up their clothes and left for the place downstairs.
...
Yang Dao calmed down, took off his clothes, and walked inside the bathroom. The boy cleaned himself up. Wore his mountain king clothes and walked out of the room. He picked up his mobile and wallet. Put them in a small bag on his back and after locking the house he went straight to the garage. There he saw an extra car parked. He guessed it must belong to the technicians sent over by Feng Yun.
He was calm now, thinking that he sent the two girls to live with two men. He frowned but recalling how they walked into his private space. He dealt with this later. Then the boy rode his bike straight to the college. He did not take off his gloves, they were hiding his swollen bruised knuckles.
The coach and the whole club were present there. Yang Dao greeted everyone with his signature smile (fake smile). Ray was the last one to come in. He patted Yang Dao on the back and said, "Everyone, I introduce you to the hero Yang Dao. The guy manhandled a crooked car door, saved an old lady. He did not care whether the car was about to explode after it just had an accident."
Everyone was surprised when they heard applause coming from the door. They saw the coach standing there. The old man spoke, "What are you guys ogling at? The kid saved a life, praise him."
The guys started clapping hard. Yang Dao scratched the back of his head. He spoke, "was at the place at the right time. If not me then someone else would have saved the old lady."
The coach nodded at him. He said, "I heard that you and Ray are taking part in a race tomorrow?"
Yang Dao nodded to the coach. The old man walked inside, took out a catalog, and handed it to Yang Dao. He said, "This book is a record of all the turns, elevations in the track you will run tomorrow. Also, this time you will have hundreds of competitors. So before the race, you will have a qualification race. It is a circuit race. Where you are supposed to make 3 laps around the circuit, the fastest lap will be counted. Your rank in the first event will be your rank in the main event. Questions?"

Yang Dao shook his head. He took the book in his hand and started reading it. Everyone dispersed, Icarus sat inside the club room with a leg over his leg. He said to Yang Dao, "Whom did you beat?"
Yang Dao glanced at him and raised an eyebrow. Icarus pointed at his gloves. He said, "It is tighter than usual. So, I guess it is swollen and both of them are swollen means you got into a fight."
The Dao Child was surprised to see the loudmouth having such observation skills. He simply replied with a nod. As soon as he recalled the scene, he felt cold. Yang Dao was an orphan, he was a very private person. Never open up his heart to just anyone.
Icarus asked, "Who was the victim?"
Yang Dao replied, "Wall."
Icarus was about to ask something again when the club house's door opened. A blonde girl walked in. She had a pink-haired girl behind her. Thomas stood up as soon as they came in. He spoke, "Fellows, these two are the new managers of our club. I want you all at your best behavior. Got it?"
The guys replied, "Yes, sir." they were all hyped up as soon as the two beauties walked inside. Yang Dao nodded to Kiya with a smile on his face. He did the same to Sasha. Unexpectedly this girl reacted modestly today, returned his gesture.
Ray came out of the locker box and said to Yang Dao, "Let's go, Mountain King, we race to the Ruby Peak."
Yang Dao chuckled as he stood up and placed the book in his locker room. Icarus spoke, "Why do I feel Senior Ray is pitting up our first-year Mountain King?"
The second-year student reacted, "Ah, the famous newbie crushing is here. Okay, the winner needs to cook for the whole team, while the loser will have to do the dishes. Agreed?"
The boys were energetic and replied loudly, "HURRAY!!"
The coach said to Thomas, "I need to check their registration, you go take the team to watch over the race. Either follow on bikes or bus, that's your choice."
Thomas nodded and said, "Let's go, guys, we ride the bus."
Yang Dao did not know why they were all so energetic, his reaction was in line with the first-year members. The two girls were asked by Thomas whether they also want to come. To add to everyone's joy, they agreed.
Icarus said, "I am riding my bike, I need to run."
Thomas nodded and said, "Okay, but you may not communicate with the contenders today. Or the race will end. Is that clear?"
Icarus nodded as he put on his helmet and gear. Yang Dao had his gear ready. He pushed out his new bike to the starting line. Everyone found it odd, but they talked about it later and boarded the bus.
Thomas said, "We are going ahead. You guys start after ten minutes, same rules, no passing inside the city traffic. May the best rider win." his tone was that of a senior. It differed from his usual helpful fellow member.
The bus started and took the team ahead. As soon as the school was out of sight. The second-year student mountain king asked, "Captain, what do you think is the reason behind Yang Dao getting a new bike and not using 'Silence'?"
Thomas replied with a smile, "Dao likes to be low-profile. He does not like to be the center of attention, neither does he like when people pry over his personal space too much. The reason behind his act is that he probably did not know the value of 'Silence' the first time he used it. Later, you guys looked at him as if he was a deity so obviously, he had to change his bike. Let's be honest, did you guys never thought that he was so good because of his bike?"
The crowd became silent after hearing these words. Sasha asked, "Captain, what is this 'Silence' you talk about?" she just asked out of curiosity. After all, the feeling of being left out was not good. The girls did not know about Yang Dao much except that he was good at studying and connected with Feng Yun.
Thomas replied to her gently, "Silence is the name of the world's best bike. It is made from carbonium fiber and titaniron webbing. Legendary automobile designer Markus Hanabi is the designer. The two metals are very rare and the bike comes with never seen before 40 gear combination while the normal bike has only 30. The name silence is given because of its design that eliminates every single sound wave. The bike costs 2 billion carat coins."
The girls had their jaws fell at this. Suddenly a guy from the back spoke, "Captain, they should be starting. Deploy the drone."
The ten minutes head start was finished, and they were at the edge of the city. Yang Dao and Ray will start racing now.
