Jing Ni was truly shocked. Qu Hao was too busy comforting her that he didnât even look at Lee Yang. He had been kicked far away and was struggling to get up with the help of the crowd.
Even the experienced and shrewd Tong Hui did not expect Qu Hao to make a move like that, especially when he knew Lee Yangâs identity. âYouâ¦â He pointed at Qu Hao, not knowing what to say.
Qu Hao smiled at him and the others. âThis fake Young Master Lee has offended my fiancée, so I taught him a lesson. Whatâs wrong with that? Isnât that how you people settle things?â

Someone helped Lee Yang stand up. He didnât know Qu Hao, but he knew Jing Tian. âMaster Qi, this man is your guest. But isnât he being too arrogant? How can he beat people up in public? Even if you donât give Master Liu face, you have to at least give Master Wei Wu face. Now, even if we want to help Master Qi, we canât really do that.â
âThatâs right, Master Qi! Your friend is too unscrupulous.â
âMaster Qi, you know where the bottom line is. You shouldnât make things difficult for
us.â
âMaster Qi!â
âMaster Qi!â
Everyone started to criticize Jing Tian.
Jing Tian smiled slightly. He glanced at Qu Hao and said softly, âIâm sorry. I know you wanted to take the target away from me but these people wonât let me go that easily.â
Qu Hao smiled faintly. âItâs okay. They donât dare to come after me directly. They can only take it out on you. Itâs obvious that theyâre trying to take advantage of you.â
Jing Tian didnât know whether to laugh or cry.
Jing Ni and I were having fun. They both took a lazy step forward and blocked us behind them.
Seeing this, Tong Hui sneered, âOh, is this a hero saving a damsel in distress? Nanxing, is this the man youâve found for yourself? He looks okay, but I wonder how heâll fare in a battle.â
Jing Tian and Qu Hao ignored him. They stood there calmly.
Lee Yang finally got up. He clutched his stomach and slowly walked behind Tong Hui, he glared at Qu Hao fiercely. âSo youâre close to Master Qi. But youâre just Mrs. Maiâs stepson. Donât forget that Mrs. Mai, Master Gu Er and Master Wei Wu are allies!â
I looked at Jing Ni in astonishment. Whatâs going on? Jing Ni approached me, and said in a low voice, âQu Haoâs identity canât be revealed. So, they said that Mai Qiâs father was in poor health and Mrs. Mai had to withdraw from their alliance to take care of him. Qu Hao was revealed as Mrs. Maiâs stepson. Then, he was exiled by his father. Mrs. Mai became the final winner and Qu Hao was made to disappear.â
I understood and said in a low voice, âSo, Lee Yang doesnât really know the truth about Qu Hao?â
Jing Ni nodded and said with a smile, âThis is probably the most novel identity Qu Hao has ever had in his life.â
âSo Lee Yang thinks that Qu Hao relies on you to get to Jing Tian and is Jing Tianâs bodyguard?â I asked.
Jing Ni smiled and didnât say anything.
I couldnât help but whisper, âQu Hao is willing to suffer any humiliation for you!â
Jing Tian turned around to look at Jing Ni and then asked Qu Hao, âDid you suffer any humiliation?â
Qu Hao also turned around to look at Jing ni and said immediately, âNo! Absolutely not!ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
I rubbed my forehead. âStop feeding me dog food!â
Qu Hao asked Lee Yang nonchalantly, âSo what? Why donât you find Mrs. Mai and see what she has to say?â
Lee Yang turned to the crowd with disdain and said, âDonât worry about him. Heâs just a lowly person who has latched onto someone powerful.â
