Villa Eight

At this moment, for Zhao Ming, it was undoubtedly the darkest moment in his life.

He was born illustrious. When he was young, he was just a child, but when he got angry, he made many adults tremble in fear.

He had walked through these twenty years in applause and cheers.

Even his parents didn't bear to reprimand him loudly.

Now, he was lying on the ground like a dead dog, covered in dust and filth, his dignity swept away!

"You will die, you must die!" Zhao Ming let out a hysterical roar, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't stand up.

Dai Yunze and Shi Fan looked at each other and immediately walked forward a few steps, their eyes filled with indescribable anger.

Qin Xuan had actually openly attacked Zhao Ming.

So as two people on par with Zhao Ming, they felt like they had been shat on!

However, the moment they met Qin Xuan's eyes, they both stopped in their tracks, adam's apples bobbing up and down.

They had originally wanted to rebuke Qin Xuan, but were deterred by this gaze.

At this point they suddenly realized that if Qin Xuan dared to beat Zhao Ming, he certainly dared to beat them too.

Speaking up now would be no different than asking for trouble!

Qin Xuan casually glanced at the two and didn't take them seriously at all. He turned to look at He Lina and said, "In front of everyone, explain why you went to beat Xia Wanying. If you dare embellish a single word, I'll beat the crap out of you!"

He Lina was already scared out of her wits.

Her arrogant cousin was now in a more miserable state than her!

Without hesitating a moment, He Lina tremblingly said, "Last night when I was with my boyfriend, he moaned Xia Wanying's name, so I got mad and went to beat her..."

There was an uproar among the crowd.

Based on their admiration for goddess Xia, they suddenly felt that Qin Xuan was not the reckless fool they had imagined.

Instead, they were starting to feel that what Qin Xuan did was great!

Someone as gentle as Xia Wanying, why should she suffer such undeserved misfortune?

If only they were capable, they would all want to go up and slap He Lina now!!

However, when the crowd looked at Zhao Ming again, their minds quickly sobered up.

Just as Zhao Ming had said.

Now that things had escalated to this point, it no longer had much to do with the original grievance.

This was Zhao Ming!

The proud son of heaven!

To be beaten into this miserable state in public, it involved too many complex interests to explain in just a few words.

So at this point, Qin Xuan was definitely in danger!

At the same time.

In the principal's office.

The dean of the Foreign Languages College stood worriedly in front of the principal, sighing repeatedly, "Do we really have to expel Qin Xuan? How do we explain this to Gu Simin?"

"Gu Simin has developed such power in just half a year, which is indeed frightening, but compared to the Zhao family, she is still too young. Do I need to elaborate on how to weigh the pros and cons?"

The principal said lightly, "This student Qin Xuan really causes too much trouble. It's best to expel him as soon as possible."

The dean of the Foreign Languages College sighed helplessly and nodded.

But just then, a phone call came in.

After the principal answered, his whole body trembled. "What did you say? The mysterious person in Villa No. 8 on Cloud Peak Mountain wants to protect Qin Xuan?"

"Yes!"

An extremely solemn voice came from the other end of the phone: "I have investigated and it is absolutely certain. He clearly stated that if the school causes Qin Xuan any grievance, they should prepare for a reshuffle!"

The principal was scared witless.

The owner of Villa No. 8 on Cloud Peak Mountain, the legendary number one figure in Yun City, the ceiling of the privileged class!

Did that not mean...

Qin Xuan's background...

Gulp.

The principal swallowed hard and said to the dean in a panic, "Quick, quick, quick, go handle this in person. Qin Xuan must not have any dissatisfaction. If necessary, expel Zhao Ming!"

The dean was also badly frightened.

It was said that Qin Xuan was reckless and arrogant.

But who would have thought, this guy...had the number one big shot in Yun City as his staunch backer.

What were the Four Great Families of Yun City in comparison? Let alone the Zhao family!

What distinguished figures? What privileged descendants?

Compared to Qin Xuan, they were like ants.

How could those fireflies compete with the bright moon!

The dean immediately prepared to leave, but suddenly received a phone call, his expression becoming complicated. "Principal, I just received news that someone from the Lu family has come forward to mediate. Things seem to be settling down..."

"That person came forward?"

The principal was curious at first, then said, "Alright, if he can resolve this stalemate properly, neither side will be offended. This is the most perfect solution."

...

Basketball court.

Amidst the turbulent atmosphere.

A young man wearing a black short-sleeved shirt and half-frame glasses slowly emerged from the crowd.

It was as if he had his own spotlight.

The moment this person appeared, he caused huge waves, attracting countless admiring gazes.

Lu Jinghong!

From one of the Four Great Families of Yun City, the Lu family.

This person was usually very low-key. In his freshman year he had already started his own business independently, without relying on any of his family's power. By now he had developed astonishing assets.

Relying on his personal charm and formidable means, the connections he had established were already comparable to those cultivated by his elders.

If someone like Jiang Feiyu relied on his family to gain his prestige,

Then Lu Jinghong,

Even excluding his Lu family background, just looking at Yun City University, he was already a top talent!

He and Xiang TianGe were the two most mysterious people at this school. It was rare to see them even a few times in a whole semester.

No one had expected Lu Jinghong to suddenly appear at an occasion like this!

Through the whispers around him, Qin Xuan learned of Lu Jinghong's background.

Seeing that Lu Jinghong had come for him, Qin Xuan immediately asked, "Friend or foe?"

"Friend."

Lu Jinghong had a smile on his face that felt like spring breeze. He beckoned Zhao Ming, Dai Yunze and Shi Fan over, and called out towards a certain direction in the crowd, "Feiyu, you come out too!"

Soon after.

Jiang Feiyu walked over with a strange look on his face.

Lu Jinghong smiled at Qin Xuan, "My friends here have been pampered since childhood, and many of their actions may be inappropriate. Today I'm coming forward as a mediator. Let's all sit down and have a drink tonight, turn conflict into friendship. What do you think?"

A single rock caused thousand ripples.

The entire basketball court fell into unprecedented turmoil.

Lu Jinghong had come forward today to mediate?

How could Qin Xuan's standing be so great?

"How is this possible?"

There was some doubt in Chen Yan's eyes.

Someone of Lu Jinghong's stature was someone she couldn't get close to even if she cracked her head open...

"He probably appreciates Qin Xuan's abilities and wants to give him a job," someone next to her speculated.

This speculation immediately got agreement from many.

Chen Yan also nodded to herself, thinking this was the only possibility. Otherwise, how could a country boy have such a powerful background?

That was simply unrealistic.

In the court.

Qin Xuan looked straight at Lu Jinghong and pondered briefly.

He had already gotten the justice he was owed, and this Lu Jinghong really seemed to have come with the sincere intention of mediating. He could give him some face.

This was Qin Xuan's personality.

If you spoke nicely, everything could be discussed.

Those who came spewing crap from the start were doomed to only get beaten.

"Alright." Qin Xuan nodded.

"No!"

Jiang Feiyu suddenly frowned and said to Lu Jinghong, "Why are you doing this? He slapped me last night. Now you want me to swallow this insult and drink happily with him?"

"Listen to me." Lu Jinghong gave him a reproachful look, speaking in a tone that brooked no disagreement.

Jiang Feiyu forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and didn't talk back to Lu Jinghong's face. But perceptive people could see that this elegant Feiyu young master was on the verge of erupting, only enduring it for now.

Lu Jinghong was somewhat disappointed in Jiang Feiyu. The latter was obviously blinded by hatred.

This matter had escalated so much, yet the school had made no moves. Was this normal?

If it was an ordinary nobody, the school's inaction could be understandable.

But today's matter involved Zhao Ming!

Lu Jinghong's mind was meticulous. From this he could sufficiently judge that Qin Xuan was no lone ranger.

If things continued to escalate, it was very likely to end up as a lose-lose situation.

So he had stepped in.

"Alright, let's stop here. I'll treat everyone to drinks tonight, Qin is our junior classmate, there's no need to go at each other's throats." Lu Jinghong said with a laugh.

The situation that was escalating rapidly was suppressed with Lu Jinghong's intervention.

Qin Xuan didn't say anything more, and left swiftly with Xia Wanying and the others.

Jiang Feiyu, Zhao Ming and the others had iron-gray faces and could not quell the rage in their hearts no matter what.

"Put away your petty schemes, this matter will be best if you listen to me. You must attend tonight."

After leaving these words, Lu Jinghong walked away first.

Zhao Ming looked at Jiang Feiyu and gnashed his teeth. "Bro Feiyu, are we really going to let this go just like that? I don't understand Brother Hong's approach, I feel like he has taken a liking to Qin Xuan's talent, so he's speaking so self-righteously."

Without a doubt, this was what everyone else thought too.

Otherwise, there was no explaining Lu Jinghong's actions.

Jiang Feiyu pondered for a while, then said lightly, "There may be intentions from the Chu family in this matter. Let's wait first, I'll go discuss with Chu Qingqiu immediately."

Half an hour later.

Jiang Feiyu arrived at the Chu family manor and saw Chu Qingqiu.

After recounting the whole incident, Jiang Feiyu accused, "We've been childhood friends, why did you stab me in the back?"

"You think I was the one who directed the course of events behind the scenes?" Chu Qingqiu asked.

"Wasn't it you?" Jiang Feiyu's gaze darkened slightly.

"Then you overestimate me too much. Why are the Lus ranked first among the Four Great Families? Not only because Lu Jinghong himself is outstanding, but also because he favors Xiang TianGe, could he be manipulated by me?"

There was some disdain in Chu Qingqiu's eyes. "I've always felt you were inferior to Lu Jinghong since we were young, and it's not just an issue of capability, but vision and caliber too!"

"What do you mean?"

"Many things should be left at that. I advise you to listen to Lu Jinghong, don't go provoking Qin Xuan again, otherwise you'll only humiliate yourself!"

Every word from Chu Qingqiu rang powerfully, like the drums at dawn that made Jiang Feiyu's body tremble violently!
