Su Shan's confidence was shattered overnight.
With solid evidence, the higher-ups quickly sent someone to arrest him.
The online public opinion was as tumultuous as ever.
"Father, you've ruined me!"
This was Su Shan's last words before being taken away for questioning.
He hadn't actually planned to get involved in the first place, knowing that sheltering a nephew who committed a crime... if caught, would mean spending the rest of his life in prison.
But he couldn't resist his father's heartfelt pleas, even to the point of kneeling. After all, they were family—how could he not help?
And so, he ended up ruining his own son's future. By now, there probably wasn't even anyone left to take care of him in his old age.
With the Su family's downfall, Lin Yu... naturally, was expelled from school yet again.
A so-called chosen one, a dragon unleashed from the mountains, a personal bodyguard to the school beauties, and he's been expelled twice... the total time he spent at school added up to no more than three days.
Lin Yu even spent five or six days in detention...
Damn it! This Su family is such a bunch of waste! What are they even doing? They're the head of the education bureau, for crying out loud? Absolute garbage!
For the second time, Lin Yu started packing his bags, ready to hit the road again.
"Oh, oh, oh, isn't this Lin Yu? What's up? Why are you getting expelled again?"
As a villain, taunting the protagonist is a must.
Jiang Che's smug voice echoed once more.
"You..." Lin Yu's patience was wearing thin.
"Wait... it was you! You're the one who brought down the Su family, aren't you?" Lin Yu wasn't entirely stupid.
But Jiang Che didn't say much, just smirked even more arrogantly.
"I'm gonna kill you!"
The leg he had been clinging to so desperately was suddenly cut off, and he was thrown out along with it.
Furious, Lin Yu's eyes turned red, and he charged forward without thinking... throwing a punch!
However... how could he possibly be a match for Jiang Che now?
In terms of speed and strength, Middle Stage Dark Force was no match for Late Stage Dark Force.
Jiang Che kicked out with one swift motion, requiring no technique whatsoever.
"Bang!"
Lin Yu was sent flying, crashing into several desks before landing on the ground...
"Hehe... Jiang Che, you're done for! You hit me! Hahaha!"
Lin Yu, in his delirium, picked up his phone and dialed the police, mimicking Jiang Che's earlier actions.
"Police! Someone's trying to kill me! He's almost beaten me to death, hurry up and save me~"
Jiang Che: "......"
Well, well, the so-called chosen one is learning from me, huh?
But kid, this trick doesn't work for just anyone!
After putting down his phone, Lin Yu burst into laughter, pointing viciously at Jiang Che.
"What can you do? You beat me up like this... and you'll still end up in jail! That kick of yours... definitely left me with serious injuries. You're waiting for your prison sentence!"
Jiang Che didn't bother responding. Lin Yu was already on the verge of madness.
......
The police arrived quickly.
This time, the person in charge was none other than Captain Li.
"Mr. Jiang, nice to see you again!" Captain Li nodded to Jiang Che.
"Hey, hey, hey... I'm over here! Jiang Che attacked me! He beat me up so badly! I suspect several of my ribs are broken!"
Lin Yu lay on the ground, groaning in pain, trying to garner sympathy.
Captain Li frowned, glancing at Lin Yu on the ground. "Isn't this the guy I arrested last time?"
"You're saying... Mr. Jiang attacked you? And did this to you?" Captain Li asked.
"Yes, yes, yes, it was him!"
"Evidence?"
"Ev... evidence? Can't you see my condition...?" Lin Yu spat out a mouthful of blood.
"But we still need evidence."
"There's surveillance! Look at the... the... camera?" Lin Yu raised his hand to point at the classroom's surveillance camera, only to find the camera's lens was gone...
The situation was incredibly awkward!
"And there are witnesses! All these classmates saw Jiang Che attack me!" Lin Yu screamed desperately, looking hopefully at the surrounding students.
"Help me testify! It was Jiang Che who attacked me!"
Most of the students asked were female, and the girls at Shilan School mostly came from middle-class or wealthier families. They had zero interest in a poor guy like Lin Yu.
"I didn't see anything. Did you see Jiang Che attack him?"
"Neither did I!"
The girls shook their heads one by one.
"Pfft——" Lin Yu completely broke down.
"Alright, this student, come with us to the police station," Captain Li said.
"Why? Why me? Shouldn't it be Jiang Che going to jail?" Lin Yu was furious.
When he attacked someone, he went to jail; when he was attacked, he still went to jail.
Is there any justice? Is there any law?
Jiang Che chuckled lightly, then walked over to Lin Yu, crouched down, and patted his shoulder, whispering softly in his ear.
"When you're out in the world, you need power and a backing. You're just a small-time nobody."
Jiang Che's words were the final straw that broke the camel's back. Lin Yu was so enraged that his eyes rolled back.
He fainted on the spot.
"Forget it, let's send him to the hospital first!"
The so-called chosen one, a Middle Stage Dark Force expert, was literally beaten to the point of spitting blood by Jiang Che.
That must be a first.
