âHoly f*ck!?â
âSo many people?â
Seeing the aggressive and unfriendly crowd running towards them, Brother Dog made a prompt decision and shouted to his gang, âRetreat! Hurry up and retreat!â
A student from another school was a little hesitant, âBut Brother Dog... What about Huang Shaofeng?â
âDonât worry about him. This idiot has obviously provoked someone more powerful than him. If we donât run now, when that group of people finds out that weâre on his side, weâll definitely be beaten to a pulp!â Brother Dog said in a low voice.
âAish! Itâs my fault too! Zhao Qihang warned me last night not to get involved in Huang Shaofengâs affairs. He told me this kid might cause some trouble, and in the end, I agreed because âm greedy for health care...â
âForget it. Itâs too late to say this now. Letâs just cut off all ties with Huang Shaofeng! That guy is really stupid!â
With that, Brother Dog took the lead, and the others followed closely. They ran into the dense bushes and disappeared without a trace.
Lin Ye didnât care about them.
He just quietly looked at Huang Shaofeng lying on the ground, his hand shining with a healing white holy light, waiting for Huang Shaofengâs answer.
However, Huang Shaofeng had always been a person who cared about his reputation, just like how a miser would care about a coin. Otherwise, he wouldnât have come all the way to Lin Yeâs place for such a small matter.
It was impossible for him to apologize. He would never apologize in this life. â
If you have the ability, try touching a single hair of mine!
â
â
Letâs see if I wonât kill you then!
â
Lin Ye furrowed his brow, âYouâre still not willing to give me a simple apology?â
Huang Shaofeng didnât reply and just gritted his teeth.
Seeing this, Lin Ye put away his Healing Spell and raised his right foot again.
He planned to teach this young master of the Huang family a profound life lesson. Not everyone would be like his father who will accommodate to your every whims.
But suddenly, a person ran out from the crowd of students.
âLin Ye! Wait a moment!â
Lin Ye turned around and saw that it was the other rich kid, Zhao Qihang. He was clutching a black phone and on his screen was a timer, the seconds going up. He was still on call.
âThis is Huang Shaofengâs father... Lin Ye, you should talk to him first!â
Lin Yeâs eyes were cold, âSo what? His father, the CEO of Huang Corp wants to talk to me? I donât want to prolong this matter any more than it already is.â
âNo, no,â Zhao Qihang quickly calmed him down, âUncle Huang, he... He wants to apologize to you personally!â
Lin Ye tilted his head, âWhat?â
Huang Shaofeng, who was still lying on the ground, revealed a look of disbelief, âW-what? My dad is going to apologize in person?â
Zhao Qihang ignored him and turned on the speaker on his black phone on purpose. He handed the phone to Lin Ye and then quietly stepped aside.
âAre you Lin Ye?â A mature manâs voice came from the phone.
âItâs him,â Lin Ye coldly replied.
Undeterred by Lin Yeâs tone, the man continued, âHello, Iâm Huang Shaofengâs father, Huang Tianqi... Qihang has already told me the whole situation.â Then the man took a deep breath, âIâm very sorry. I didnât teach my son well and caused him a lot of trouble for you. Iâm sincerely apologized.â
Hearing how sincere the man was, it touched Lin Yeâs heart, and he softened his tone, âMr. Huang, youâre too kind.â
âI wanted to come there personally, but thereâs an emergency at the company, But I just had to call you firstâ¦â Huang Qitian explained. âI was wondering if you are free tonight? I want to treat you to a meal and apologize to you in person. I want to compensate you for your losses,â
âAlso, I hope you can hand Huang Shaofeng over to Qihang so he can bring him home. Iâll personally discipline him with the family rules! I promise Iâll teach him a good lesson, to make sure that this little bastard wonât make the same mistake again!â
Lin Ye glanced at Huang Shaofeng, who was lying on the ground with his world view crumbling. Lin Ye said slowly, âSince Mr. Huang has spoken, Iâm fine with it.â
â...â
After that, the two of them chatted for a while and agreed on a time and place for dinner. Then, they ended the call.
Lin Ye looked at Zhao Qihang, âYou saved him yet again today. Though I doubt that heâll even understand. He probably mistook you for taking my side.â
Zhao Qihang sighed, âWhatever. This is the last time anyway. I wonât care about him anymore. Iâll just let Uncle Huang have his own headache...â
Lin Ye turned his head and glanced at the students who were taking pictures and videos with their phones. âI have a question. Did Huang Shaofengâs father personally called me to apologize because this matter has blown up?â
âThatâs part of the reason,â Zhao Qihang replied honestly. âYour battle and conversation had spread from the school forum to the internet. Huang Corpâs rival company is using the publicâs opinion to attack Uncle Huang and his company...â
âBut Uncle Huang really intended to apologize to you and punish Huang Shaofeng for what he did.â
âIncluding last nightâs events. He tried to stop Huang Shaofeng from looking for you. Somehow, this kid disappeared from our radar and we donât know where he went. We couldnât find any trace of him the whole night, so...â
Huh? If he has a kind and disciplined father like that, then why did Huang Shaofeng become like this?
From his observation, the richer and stronger the father is, the more arrogant their kids would be. Those big fools who looked down on everyone were only a minority.
As if he saw Lin Yeâs confusion, Zhao Qihang explained in a low voice, âUhm⦠Uncle Huangâs family is a little complicated⦠You should understand that extreme environments easily produce extreme people, and some things are not convenient to tell outsiders. Every family has its own difficulties...â
Lin Ye waved his hand, âDonât worry about it. Thereâs no need to explain. Iâll let him go today on account of your and Mr. Huangâs request. Heâs suffered enough anyway.â
âBut, three things. If he still dares to come to me, then Iâll really have to get serious with him. And when that happens, Iâll definitely teach him what it means to respect others.â
âYou guys should go down from the other side of the mountain,â Lin Ye turned around and faced the crowd. âIâll deal with the crowd.â
Zhao Qihang solemnly cupped his fists, âThank you so much! Iâll treat you to a meal one day!â
With that, Zhao Qihang took out the Sleeping Talisman from his pocket and once again paste it on Huang Shaofengâs forehead.
âZhao Qihang... You...â
Before he could finish his words, Huang Shaofengâs vision turned black, and his entire consciousness fell into a dead silence as if he was swallowed by a black abyss.
But unlike last time, Huang Shaofengâs consciousness only stopped for three seconds before he woke up again. Suddenly, he heard an extremely sinister voice whisper in his ear, âHehehe... Pride, envy, wrath, sloth, greed, lust, but gluttony⦠You human have almost been tainted by all sins. You are the perfect scum...â
âYouâve been humiliated, looked down upon, your best friend doesnât support you, your own father doesnât help you, and the people around you treat you like youâre an annoying street rat...â
âIf I were you, I would hate this world, hate this group of sinners. I would want to crush them with my own hands!â
âDonât you think so too?â
âIf thatâs the case~â
â
I
... Can fulfill your little wish!â
