Qian Xiaoguo sat listlessly in the back, resting. Despite feeling unwell, she insisted on staying with her classmates.
Meanwhile.
Mian Mian's class had their former sports representative called to the men's restroom. He was lured there, then a sack was thrown over his head. Immediately, a stick descended, and he was severely beaten.
Yun Buji was a professional at fighting. Thinking about how this scoundrel had deliberately locked Jiang Mianmian in that kind of warehouse, he wished he could kill the lowlife.
Mianmian was so delicate, and her health wasn't completely recovered. If he hadn't found her, something terrible might have happened. The more he thought about it, the angrier Yun Buji became, and the harder he hit.
At first, the sports representative cursed, then he begged for mercy, and finally, he didn't even have the strength to beg, only to let out screams. Eventually, even the screams ceased.
Zhou Hao, fearing someone would die, quickly grabbed Yun Buji, signaling him to stop, lest he kill the person.
Yun Buji also knew he couldn't cause a death. So, he let go of the scoundrel and left with Zhou Hao.
The sports representative was actually faking being dead. He knew that the more he cried out, the less likely the other party was to let him go. So, after they left, he crawled out on his own. He protected his head. Although his body ached, there were no fatal injuries. It just hurt, a lot.
His eyes darkened. After a pause, he got up and left the restroom.
When his classmates saw him, they were startled. Eventually, a teacher took him to the infirmary.
The teacher asked who had done this to him. He only said he had fallen accidentally. In reality, he knew very well that the person was avenging Jiang Mianmian.
If he dared to cause trouble again, he might even lose his life.
He was just a child from an ordinary family. He couldn't afford to cause trouble. This incident was a profound lesson. Now, he only hoped the other party would let him go, and he didn't dare to say any more.
Seeing that he didn't want to talk, the teacher could only urge him to tell the teacher if anything happened, and the teacher would surely help him.
...
Yun Buji felt regret. He grabbed Zhou Hao by the collar and questioned, "Why did you stop me just now! I should have beaten that bastard to death. Do you know how bad he is? Locking her in such a filthy place, she was terrified when she came out, her face was all dirty."
Zhou Hao: "..."
"I know, I know. But don't you think Miss wouldn't want you to have blood on your hands because of her? How would you face her then? Our grand ambition is to win over Miss, marry her as our wife, and of course, we can't do anything illegal, right?" Zhou Hao began to placate him.
Yun Buji: "..."
"What you said is true. No, wait, who wants to marry Jiang Mianmian? How could I be worthy!" Yun Buji glared at his friend glumly, then, feeling even more dejected, turned to leave.
"Don't you like her? You don't want to marry her? You want to watch her marry another man in the future and have children with another man?" Zhou Hao asked.
"Shut up!"
"Isn't that right? Since you like her, you should find a way to make yourself worthy of her. Isn't her family just rich? Being rich isn't that amazing... Alright, being rich is indeed amazing, but don't bully the poor youth! We will definitely be rich in the future," Zhou Hao said with conviction.
"When you say that, have you settled your grandfather's hospital bills yet?" Yun Buji attacked him without reservation.
Zhou Hao: "..."
"I'd better go find a restaurant to wash dishes then." Zhou Hao wasn't as smart as Yun Buji. He wasn't even that good at games, so making money mostly relied on hard labor.
