Chapter 993 Xiao Qianxi: Is this trip worthwhile?
Beiqing Canteen.
"Hey, have you heard? Yang Cheng got beaten up."
"Yang Cheng? Is he the playboy whose family went bankrupt?"
"Yes, it was him. I saw it clearly. He was beaten into a pig's head."
"It's what he deserves. This grandson relies on his family's wealth and power to harass pretty girls every day inside and outside of school. I've long disliked him."
Just as Xie Qiao was stunned, someone patted his shoulder. He turned around and found Xu Lin sitting next to him. He said mysteriously, "The latest news is that the people who beat Yang Cheng were given a verbal warning by the Academic Affairs Office. They were required to write a 1,000-word self-reflection and pay 500 yuan for medical expenses."
"Is this gone?"
"Now you know how realistic this society is. Do you remember the time when Lao Qin beat up Yang Cheng? If Principal Li hadn't stepped in, Lao Qin would have been the one who suffered in the end." Xu Lin sighed.
"If this had happened a year ago, these guys might have lost their school status. Now, with just a simple verbal warning, the Yang family really has no chance of turning things around this time."
Xie Qiao hesitated for a while: "Then Yang Cheng..."
"Hey, I just got beaten up and got a black eye. It's no big deal. I took two days off and came back to class after I recovered." Xu Lin said casually.
After the two returned to the dormitory, Xie Qiao had just laid down for a short while when he suddenly heard Xu Lin swear: Fuck.
"Xu Lin, you're swearing again." Xie Qiao frowned.
While apologizing, Xu Lin called Xie Qiao over.
When Xie Qiao saw the title, his eyes widened immediately.
Someone actually posted the content of the punishment for beating Yang Cheng on the Shuimu Peking University Forum, and it received a high number of views and replies.
"It turns out that beating this bastard only costs 500 yuan. Count me in. I will beat him up if I see him next time."
"The above person probably miscalculated. You also need to hire someone to write a self-criticism. A 550-word self-criticism should cost at least yuan. yuan to beat him up is not bad."
"Are there any groups? If we bring a few more people, we can share the cost. It will only cost one hundred yuan per person for five people."
Xu Lin and Xie Qiao looked at each other.
"Do you think Yang Cheng will drop out of school?"
……
In an apartment building near the Peking University and Tsinghua University campus.
After Yang Cheng returned home, his face was gloomy: "Mom, didn't you say before that you would send me to study in the UK? Please help me with the procedures as soon as possible. I can't stay in this crappy school for a day."
The smile on Mother Yang's face instantly disappeared. After hesitating for a long time, she said earnestly: "Xiao Cheng, Peking University and Tsinghua University are actually quite good. They are considered famous schools after all..."
However, before she could finish her words, Yang Cheng interrupted her rudely: "I don't care about any famous schools. Please help me with the procedures for going abroad."
What responded to him was a minute-long silence from Mother Yang.
"Xiao Cheng, Mom may not be able to send you abroad in the next two years."
Yang Cheng completely exploded, sweeping all the food on the table to the ground: "Why? I just want to leave this damn place, why can't I do it?"
“Xiao Cheng, it’s not that mom is reluctant to part with the money, but our family is involved in many lawsuits now. Although there is still some money in the house that has not been frozen, this money cannot be transferred abroad. Moreover, some accounts may face the risk of being frozen at any time. Even the house we live in now may be sealed by the court.” Mother Yang said bitterly.
Yang Cheng's body shook for a while, and he asked in disbelief: "How could this happen?"
"So, Xiaocheng, you can't drop out of school now. The diploma from Peking University and Tsinghua University is your way out. If the family's money can't be saved, this diploma can at least allow you to survive." Mother Yang said earnestly.
Yang Cheng covered his face with his hands: "How could it become like this? Our family has such a large business, why did it become like this overnight?"
"Why else? It's because you messed with someone you shouldn't mess with."
Mother Yang smiled bitterly and shook her head.
"I messed with someone I shouldn't have messed with? Who?"
Seeing her son's confused look, Mother Yang sighed. She had been hiding the truth from her son because she was afraid that he would do something stupid. But now, she could only hope that he would make progress after knowing the truth.
"Do you remember Qin Hao who blackmailed us for five million last time? Your father called and scolded you for causing trouble for him. He was the one who ruined Yang's Real Estate."
Yang Cheng's eyes widened when he heard this: "Impossible, I was the one who suffered the loss last time, why would he bother our family? Besides, where does he get so much power? Just relying on his small, broken company that has only been open for two and a half years?"
Seeing that her son was still stubborn, Mother Yang said in a serious tone.
"Yiguo's valuation in the first round of financing has exceeded US$1 billion. It is definitely not a small company. Many international investment banks are optimistic about its future."
At this point, Mother Yang felt somewhat regretful. She knew very well that the reason why Qin Hao was retaliating against her was definitely because she had initially announced a ban on Yiguo's supply. Confrontations in the business world are often invisible swordplay. If Yiguo had not been able to solve the problem of supply, it would have been strangled in the cradle. This was a true life-and-death feud.
Yang Cheng suddenly remembered that he had provoked Xiao Qianxi in the hotel restaurant that day, and he shuddered all over.
"Could it be that he wanted to vent his anger on Xiao Qianxi, so he..."
Mother Yang looked at her son's guilty eyes and softened her heart: "Xiao Cheng, it's okay. What I just said was the worst case scenario. Things may not develop in this direction. You just need to study hard now. Leave the rest to me."
Yang Cheng was depressed and told everyone what happened on the forum. The next day, Yang's mother found the director of the Academic Affairs Office.
When the Dean of the Academic Affairs Office saw that such a post was indeed inappropriate, he contacted the administrator of the Shuimu Beiqing Forum and had the post deleted.
However, a large number of students still saw the post, and the act of deleting the post also caused dissatisfaction among some students.
Originally, Yang Cheng was too arrogant in school, which caused many students to dislike him. However, the Yang family was rich and powerful before, and no one dared to mess with them. Now that the Yang family has collapsed and people are not allowed to talk about it, naturally some people blame Yang Cheng for this.
As a result, Yang Cheng always had a feeling of being "surrounded by strong enemies" at school, as if everyone had a grudge against him, and his chances of being hit by footballs, basketballs, and various ball-like objects increased greatly, and what he often got in return was just a superficial apology.
Whenever Yang Cheng couldn't help but want to fight with the other party, several big men would immediately surround him. Once he took the initiative to attack, he would definitely be surrounded by a group fight.
Helpless, Yang Cheng could only grit his teeth and swallow it.
Yang Cheng blamed all these humiliations on Qin Hao, but unfortunately, Qin Hao had not been in Peking University these days.
……
After the National Day holiday, Qin Hao returned to Beijing.
At this time, autumn has arrived in the capital, and the leaves on the green belts on both sides of the road are gradually turning yellow and withering.
On this day, Xiao Qianxi, Xie Qiao and Xu Lin were discussing where to go for a meal as the get out of class was about to end, when they suddenly heard a voice from behind them.
"Count me in, too."
Xie Qiao and Xu Lin were both startled. When they turned around, they saw Qin Hao appear in the back row at some point.
"Old Qin, you scared me to death in broad daylight."
Qin Hao teased, "You're scared in broad daylight when you haven't done anything wrong. Are you secretly saying bad things about me?"
"Qianxi, please take care of your Lao Qin."
"That's right. He was the one who scared us, but he turned the tables on us."
Facing the "instigation" of the two, Xiao Qianxi said softly: "When did you come back?"
"It's over, there's no hope."
"They value women over friendship. Xie Qiao, let's go and not play with them anymore."
Xu Lin tactfully pulled Xie Qiao away.
Seeing that the light bulb had left, Qin Hao naturally sat next to Xiao Qianxi.
"I just arrived this morning. How are you? Have you missed me these days?"
"Hmph, who knows where you've been hanging out these days? Why would I miss you?" Xiao Qianxi wrinkled his nose.
Qin Hao felt a little embarrassed for a moment. It was fine when he was in Hong Kong. He would video chat with Xiao Qianxi every day. But after arriving in the UK and being with Wang Ying, it became a little inconvenient. He could only find time to call Xiao Qianxi.
"Have you seen Wang Ying? Is she... okay?"
Xiao Qianxi broke the awkward atmosphere.
Qin Hao shamelessly tried to grab Xiao Qianxi's hand, but she dodged him.
"Fortunately."
The two dry words made the atmosphere a little awkward. Just when Qin Hao was thinking about how to ease the situation, Xiao Qianxi burst out laughing.
"Look how nervous you are. Is this trip worthwhile?"
Qin Hao's heart was filled with alarm bells. How could a woman not be jealous? The more generous she acted, the more dangerous she would be.
The fact was just as Qin Hao expected. As soon as Xiao Qianxi saw Qin Hao's expression, she knew that he and Wang Ying must have done something bad in Britain. She was also an experienced person. What could a single man and a single woman do together?
A huge sense of crisis came over me like an overwhelming tidal wave.
Xiao Qianxi knew very well that compared with Wang Ying, her appearance and figure were not an advantage, and she did not have the temperament of a lady from a noble family. In addition, Wang Ying's family background could help Qin Hao...
In the past, Xiao Qianxi could comfort herself by saying “Wang Ying doesn’t necessarily like Qin Hao” or “Wang Ying doesn’t bother to snatch her boyfriend from me”.
But now, all the fantasies have been shattered, and Wang Ying is now his direct competitor.
"Do I have any advantages that Wang Ying doesn't have?"
Countless thoughts flashed through Xiao Qianxi's mind, but he suddenly realized that he seemed to be obviously better than Wang Ying in no way.
"Qianxi, what's wrong with you?"
Qin Hao noticed something was wrong with Xiao Qianxi and waved his hand in front of her.
Xiao Qianxi came back to his senses and forced a smile at Qin Hao: "I'm hungry, let's go eat."
"Okay." Qin Hao also planned to use the time of eating to comfort Xiao Qianxi.
The two of them walked out of the teaching building. Just as Qin Hao was about to sit in the passenger seat of Xiao Qianxi's Audi, a resentful voice came from behind.
"Qin Hao!"
Qin Hao glanced at him out of the corner of his eye and had no intention of paying any attention to Yang Cheng.
It was this look that made Yang Cheng completely break down his defense, and he rushed towards Qin Hao like a madman. However, before he could get close, Qin Hao kicked him to the ground, and at the same time, Qin Hao stepped on Yang Cheng's back with one foot, pressing him so that he could not move.
"Let me go, I'm going to kill you!" Yang Cheng's eyes were red and he was struggling to get up.
Xiao Qianxi hesitated for a moment and was about to call the police when he was stopped by Qin Hao.
"Yang Cheng, don't be shameless. I didn't kill you because of Wang Ying. If you continue to make trouble, I can make you disappear without a trace in a minute. If you don't believe me, you can try it."
Qin Hao sneered and kicked Yang Cheng in the stomach. The latter curled up on the ground in pain, like a cooked shrimp, and could only watch Qin Hao walk away.
What made Yang Cheng even more unacceptable was that perhaps it was really as Qin Hao said, he did not attack him because of Wang Ying's face.
This humiliation almost made Yang Cheng collapse. Although the pain in his body was relieved, the trauma in his heart was unbearable no matter what.
"Yang Cheng, you can't be defeated. You have to take revenge. You must stand up again. He can start from scratch, so you can too!"
Yang Cheng endured the pain and got up from the ground, then walked out of the campus with difficulty amidst the strange looks from people around him.
……
On the way to the restaurant, Xiao Qianxi asked with some concern: "Will Yang Cheng do anything out of the ordinary?"
"Don't worry, he can't hurt me. But I'm a little worried about you. How about finding you a female bodyguard?"
Xiao Qianxi shook her head as soon as she heard this: "Bodyguard? That's too much. Besides, I drive to and from school now, and I go to school with Xie Qiao, Xu Lin and the others. Yang Cheng shouldn't dare to mess around in school, right?"
"That seems a bit exaggerated. How about this? I'll teach you some self-defense techniques when I get home tonight?"
Qin Hao actually had to thank Yang Cheng. After Yang Cheng's commotion, Xiao Qianxi never mentioned his going to England again along the way, so this hurdle was passed smoothly.
"Alas, it is not so easy to enjoy the blessing of having two wives."
Just as Qin Hao was secretly sighing, Xiao Qianxi spat at him: "Who wants to learn self-defense from you?"
Uh... did this girl misunderstand something?
He really just wanted to teach self-defense, nothing else.
However, after dinner, Xiao Qianxi took the initiative to drive Qin Hao back to their "little home".
As soon as he entered the room, Xiao Qianxi took the initiative to stick close to him, and whispered in Qin Hao's ear in a provocative tone: "Is this the self-defense technique?"
This was unbearable, so Qin Hao decided to let her experience the true power of "self-defense skills".
It lasted from the afternoon until late at night, until Xiao Qianxi begged for mercy exhaustedly, and Qin Hao then picked her up and walked into the bathroom with satisfaction.
Lying back on the bed, Xiao Qianxi suddenly leaned close to Qin Hao's ear and said, "I'm going to squeeze you dry so you don't go out and harm others."
Qin Hao was speechless for a while. It turned out that this girl had not forgotten at all and was just pretending to forget.
"Then you have to work harder. I have plenty of energy." Qin Hao bit Xiao Qianxi's delicate earlobe.
Seeing that he was about to lose his temper again, Xiao Qianxi quickly begged for mercy: "No, I really can't do it today."
"Humph, stop talking nonsense like that in the future, otherwise..."
Bang bang~~~
