After hearing what He Yushui said, Yan Bugui, as a teacher, had a face full of embarrassment and shame. Being taught a lesson by a primary school student was really more painful than being beaten.

Yan Bugui looked at He Yushui stiffly and said, "He Yushui, thank you for forgiving me! Well, the class has started, you should go back to the classroom!"

He Yushui nodded and quickly returned to the classroom for class.

Yan Bugui watched He Yushui's departing figure, feeling a complex emotion in his heart.

Yan Bugui shook his head, throwing away the unnecessary emotion, and quickly walked out of the school gate, because his challenge was far from over! He was going to face a bigger and more difficult test - to apologize to He Yuzhu.

At the same time, in the Xu Family Tavern in Beijing, He Yuzhu was boasting and chatting with Niu Ye and others.

Fredno brought Sullivan to the tavern.

"He Yuzhu, long time no see!" Fredno greeted He Yuzhu with a smile as soon as he saw him.

Today, Fredno's Chinese level is far from what it used to be. After working in the steel mill for several months, their expert group from the Bear Country helped him gradually master most of the Chinese language. At least, he can have basic Chinese conversations with ease.

He Yuzhu hurriedly stood up, walked towards Fredno and hugged him warmly, saying, "Long time no see, my dear Fredno!"

I just talked with Mr. Niu about these experts who are friendly to the Bear Country. It really is “no coincidence in the world”!

It was really amazing that the person who was just talking unexpectedly came to Xu's Tavern.

Fa Sullivan also greeted He Yuzhu with a smile on her face: "Chef He, long time no see!"

He Yuzhu nodded with joy.

Then, Fredno and Sullivan came to an empty seat and sat down.

"You came to Xu's Tavern today just to see me?" He Yuzhu poured them a full glass of wine.

Fredno took the wine glass and drank it all, then picked up a small dried fish beside him, sniffed it hard, and put it into his mouth and started eating.

Fredno's eyes lit up instantly: "Dear He, the dried fish you made is simply a delicacy!"

“I didn’t expect you to cook so well!”

Fredno ate some dried fish and gave He Yuzhu a thumbs up.

However, Fasalivan rolled her eyes at him, then smiled and explained to He Yuzhu: "We are here today to say goodbye to you. The technical exchange and cooperation between our expert team and the steel mill will expire tomorrow."

"We will be returning to the Bear Country tomorrow. It may be difficult for us to taste the delicious food you cook again."

Fredno drank another cup happily and added, "Yes, I came here today just to say goodbye to you. If there is a chance in the future, I hope you can come to the Bear Country to experience our delicious food!"

He Yuzhu couldn't help but sigh when he heard this: "Fredno, Sullivan, thank you for your support and help to our steel mill these days! Since you are about to return to the Bear Country, can I make you a farewell dinner?"

He Yuzhu offered to prepare a farewell banquet for them, not because he thought he was great, but because he was sure that even without his suggestion, Director Yang would most likely come to him soon to prepare a banquet for the expert team from Xiong Country again.

After hearing what He Yuzhu said, Fredno and Sullivan looked at each other, and the surprise in their eyes could not be hidden at all.

In fact, another purpose of their visit today was to take this opportunity to taste He Yuzhu's cooking skills again.

Because they knew that this technical exchange with Longguo Steel Rolling Mill might be the last one, and whether they would see He Yuzhu and others again in the future was unpredictable.

Fredno smiled and agreed: "Dear brother He, this is great! I am really honored to have a friend like you!"

"It seems that we can still taste the delicious food prepared by Chef He Yuzhu before we leave. It will be an unforgettable memory for us!" Sullivan on the side also said with a smile while pursing her lips.

For ordinary Chinese people, it is extremely rare to see foreigners in this era.

The originally bustling Xu's Tavern suddenly became quiet at this moment. The drinkers' eyes wandered between Fredno and Sullivan. There was no malice in their eyes, but more curiosity.

Fredno and Sullivan felt a little shy due to the constant attention from the drinkers around them, so after chatting with He Yuzhu about the weather for a while, they returned to the steel mill.

As soon as the two left, Xu's Tavern became noisy again.

Uncle Niu asked He Yuzhu with great interest: "Yuzhu, you are really good at making friends! You can become good friends with foreign friends, that's amazing!"

He Yuzhu smiled, waved his hand and said, "Uncle Niu, please stop making fun of me! This is not something impressive, it's just making friends!"

At this moment, He Yuzhu noticed that a person who was both expected and unexpected came to the tavern and stood at the door of the tavern. This person was Yan Bugui, who had just seen He Yuzhu talking to two foreigners.

However, Yan Bugui had been hiding in the shadows and only showed up after the two foreigners left. The reason why he waited for the two foreigners to leave was because he knew very well that He Yuzhu would not easily forgive him.

If foreigners saw his humble apology, they would probably laugh at him, and he didn't want to lose face in front of them.

He Yuzhu came to Yan Bugui with a joking smile and asked, "Yan Bugui, shouldn't you be teaching students at school? Why are you here drinking and showing your support for me?"

He Yuzhu had already guessed that it must be Principal Chen who asked Yan Bugui to apologize.

"He Yuzhu, don't play dumb. Tell me now what you need in order to get my forgiveness. You can ask me to do anything!" Yan Bugui was ready to apologize to He Yuzhu no matter what, so he risked his life.

He Yuzhu looked at Yan Bugui's tough attitude and responded casually: "Since you asked me how to forgive you, I have a suggestion. Just hit your head against the wall! I can tell you that the wall in the distance is very strong. If you can't die by hitting it this way, you can hit it a few more times!"

This sentence made Yan Bugui look at He Yuzhu in surprise and retorted in confusion: "He Yuzhu, you may have misunderstood. I came to you to apologize. You don't want me to commit suicide?" Yan Bugui really wanted to strangle the hateful guy in front of him. In order to keep his teaching position, he encountered such an unexpected and cruel response from He Yuzhu.

Yan Bugui originally wanted to ask He Yuzhu for forgiveness, but unexpectedly He Yuzhu asked him to commit suicide by hitting his head against the wall.

He Yuzhu stared at Yan Fugui in front of him and said sternly: "You lied the moment you opened your mouth, do you still need me to forgive you?"

He continued coldly: "Weren't you able to do anything before? But now you are unwilling to sacrifice your life. Is this the sincerity of your apology?"

He Yuzhu firmly believed that Principal Chen must have issued a death order to Yan Fugui that could not be questioned, otherwise the consequence would be something Yan Fugui could never bear.

Yan Fugui hurriedly begged for mercy, trying to get closer to He Yuzhu, saying, "Chef He, we used to be neighbors. Can you please let me go this time for the sake of our old friendship?"

"I swear that from now on no one can hurt your sister Yu Shui. If anyone dares to bully her, I will be the first to stand up for her. In Hongxing Primary School, I, Yan Bugui, also have a place!"

Hearing this, He Yuzhu shook his hand and said with a smile: "Stop acting in front of me. I don't know you at all. I'm tired of hearing your big words! You should take responsibility for your own actions. Don't beg me for forgiveness like a dog wagging its tail."

Hearing He Yuzhu's merciless words, Yan Yanbugui's face instantly became very embarrassed. The drinkers in Xu's Tavern were all looking at him as if he were a fool.

At this moment, Yan Bugui was so embarrassed that he glared at He Yuzhu and roared, "What do you want me to do to forgive me? What should I do? Please tell me!"

"Snapped!"

A crisp slap fell, and He Yuzhu said with contempt and sarcasm: "Have you had enough of making trouble? If you make trouble like this, do you know how the guests in our tavern will look at me? Then why don't you kneel down and apologize!"

Yan Bugui's face flushed and he gritted his teeth.

But he finally knelt down in front of He Yuzhu and cried loudly. His miserable sobs made the entire Xu's Tavern silent, and also made He Yuzhu feel embarrassed and stunned for a moment.

Could a slap in the face really make this man who used to scold him in the courtyard cry? No matter what kind of punishment he had received in the past, Yan Bugui had never lost his temper like this.

Xu Huizhen, who was watching all this, came over and whispered, "Zhu Zi, are you going a little too far?"

Seeing the old man in front of her crying bitterly, her heart couldn't help but soften.

He Yuzhu looked at the usually strong Xu Huizhen and saw a look of worry and sympathy on her face, and wondered if his way of handling the matter was ill-considered.

"Huh? Did I really go too far?" He Yuzhu looked at the drinkers around him suspiciously.

The drinker's reaction was not to completely blame He Yuzhu, but to say "Maybe, a little bit..."

This was the first time Niu Ye encountered such a situation. He was very troubled and said, "Maybe you went too far. You hurt his heart and his face too much."

Pian'erye on the side nodded in agreement, admitting that He Yuzhu's slap might have been too extreme.

Listening to their words, He Yuzhu thought of He Yushui's sadness yesterday, and his eyes became more determined. My family has been wronged. Why should I forgive you just because you cried, Yan Bugui? Don't even think about it!

He Yuzhu said coldly: "Don't act so miserable in front of me, it won't work! This matter must be resolved properly!"

Then He Yuzhu asked Yan Bugui again, "Have you gained my sister Yushui's forgiveness?"

Yan Bugui, who was originally sobbing, looked at He Yuzhu's unmoved expression, and his crying immediately subsided a lot. The wailing just now was actually a self-torture trick he set up. He hoped to win the sympathy of the people around him, and then use morality to force He Yuzhu to forgive him.

After all, his face had been thrown on the ground, and at this moment he decided to give up his stubbornness and pride to perform this drama. If successful, he would be able to fulfill Principal Chen's request of him.

Damn it! I almost completed the apology mission! Yan Bugui barely held back his tears and said in a sobbing voice: "Yu...Yu Shui has already forgiven me, only you are left..."

He Yuzhu saw through Yan Bugui's acting at a glance, walked up to him and slapped him again: "Old man, this Oscar statuette should be given to you!"

Yan Bugui, who was beaten again, stared at He Yuzhu in confusion and asked doubtfully: "Why did you hit me again? I was crying, how could you be so cruel?"

His tears did not flow as expected, which made He Yuzhu even more unhappy.

So the sound of his slaps continued to ring out, and Yan Bugui's face soon became swollen like a "pig's head".

Yan Bugui stood there in a daze, speechless.

The onlookers who were drinking witnessed all this and looked on in amazement.

When they saw Yan Bugui being beaten like this without shedding a tear, they all realized that they had been fooled.

She cried heart-wrenchingly at first, but now that she was beaten, she stopped crying, which is really speechless.

"Damn it, he was playing a trick on us. Turns out he was just pretending to cry!"

The angry voices in the crowd intertwined: "This guy is too much!"

"How dare he take advantage of our kindness! How abominable!"

Everyone started to punish Yan Bugui because of He Yuzhu, and they also had the urge to do it themselves.

He Yuzhu clenched his fists and said angrily: "Yan Bugui, you old man, you are getting tougher and tougher. It's not enough to beg for mercy now. If you don't kowtow, I will spare you, but it doesn't mean I will forgive you!"

There were many people around, and at this moment he just wanted to trample on all of Yan Bugui's self-esteem in public and tear off his last layer of disguise.

He wanted Yan Bugui to remember forever what the consequences would be if he went against him, He Yuzhu.

After hearing what He Yuzhu said, Yan Bugui's mood completely broke down.

He Yuzhu's words were like a sharp sword pointing directly at his heart: "When have I, He, ever received any favor from you?"

His ten fingers turned white, his teeth clenched, and he shouted at He Yuzhu: "He Yuzhu, don't be so arrogant!"

Looking down at Yan Fugui who was bowing his head in front of him, He Yuzhu said condescendingly: "Old man, if you want to kneel, kneel cleanly! If you don't want to kowtow, get out of here, don't expect me to forgive you!"

Yan Fugui lowered his head, his expression drowned in darkness, and it seemed that even time had stopped flowing above his head.

If I can't get He Yuzhu's forgiveness, all my struggles and efforts just now will be in vain.

How much is dignity worth? Yan Fugui knew this very clearly.

At this moment, under the focus of everyone's attention, his pride was shattered to the ground, and he began to kowtow slowly to He Yuzhu, saying apologetically: "I'm sorry, He Yuzhu, please forgive me!"

He Yuzhu snorted coldly and said sternly: "You bastard! Speak louder! I can't hear you!"

Upon hearing this, Yan Fugui suddenly stopped, and then his apologies became louder and louder, while his head knocked against the ground with more force: "I'm sorry, He Yuzhu, please forgive me!"

Yan Bugui couldn't remember how many times he kowtowed to Yuzhu or how many times he apologized. He just felt his forehead was numb with pain, his vision was blurry, and the scene in front of him was blood red.

Yan Decheng, a clerk at the Military Control Office, happened to see all this and rushed forward to interrupt, saying, "Dad, stop knocking, let's go back!"
