Chapter 67: Unaware of His Impending Doom, Xu Zhikun

Green Green Blue Collar: "Urgent!"

"What is so urgent about you?"

Xu Ye couldn't make sense of this message. Was he being urgent?

A triple denial + a screenshot for proof + another denial. Wasn't this just standard procedure? How was that being urgent?

At most, his typing speed was just a tiny bit faster than usual, but he had always typed this fast. How on earth did that make him urgent?

What an absolute... nonsense!

Wildly Frolicking Wild: "I'm not being urgent at all."

"I've maintained this hand speed for all these years. Where do you see any urgency?"

"You should reflect on your own issues. It's just you letting your imagination run wild, huh?"

Xu Ye nodded in satisfaction.

One must learn to shift the blame onto the other party; that way, he bore no responsibility whatsoever.

Besides, his state of mind was truly rock-steady. He really wasn't hurried in the slightest.

After finishing his meal, Xu Ye packed up some dog treats to take to Zhao Yang and the others.

As soon as he stepped into the trio's pigsty of a dorm, the three scumbags dutifully hailed him as their adoptive father.

Just as Xu Ye was about to graciously waive the formalities, his phone suddenly chimed.

"Xu Ye, do you have time?"

"If you do, come over to the dance studio. This is Ruowei. I have something I want to talk to you about in private!"

Xu Ye raised an eyebrow, followed by a mocking sneer at the corner of his lips.

In the past, he was always the one pestering her to ask if she had time. Now that he had blocked her, she was resorting to borrowing someone else's phone to endlessly hound him?

It seemed she was finally starting to panic, but!

Did she think it was over just like that?

No, the game had only just begun!

"Brother Wild? What's up?"

Zhao Yang set down the chicken leg in his hand and asked.

"Nothing."

Xu Ye replied with a smile, swiftly blocking this new number as well, and then placed a call to the bank to freeze his supplementary credit card.

"Right, and there's that dog woman's aunt..."

Xu Yuemei, the general manager of the finance department at one of the Xu Group's subsidiaries.

Right now, Xu Zhikun alone owed him fifteen million, and Xu Ruowei would need at least twenty or thirty million.

And under the circumstance where his supplementary card was already frozen...

Xu Ye smiled, his gaze cold as he stared out the window.

Xu Ruowei, you had better not let me disappointment me!

...

Xu Ruowei was utterly exasperated.

Because of what happened last night, rumors were flying everywhere around the school. Her identity as the eldest young lady of the Xu family was likely a fake, and Xu Ye was the true young master of the Xu family!

Otherwise, why would a master ever apologize to a subordinate?

And to top it off, she had first taken a solid half-dozen heavy slaps across the face, and all of that in front of countless people!

There was simply no room for debate; it was a devastating blow to her public persona.

Could she really just sit around and wait to be exposed?

Impossible, she would never allow it!

But what could she do to salvage the situation?

"Xu Ye, I need Xu Ye's cooperation!"

She knew very well that this was the only way to resolve the crisis.

After all, he was the one who had caused all of this. As long as he returned to his old ways and obediently acted as her devoted simp once again, everything would naturally return to its original track.

Therefore, she had hastily acquired a new China Unicom number and sent Xu Ye those two messages.

She only needed to talk to Xu Ye; she was certain she could make him change his mind.

"At worst, under certain conditions... I can just agree to be his girlfriend."

She believed that with a condition like this, Xu Ye would never refuse.

After all, she was his white moonlight, wasn't she?

He had been dreaming of having her, and wasn't everything he was doing right now simply meant to force her into agreement?

Therefore, as long as she took the initiative to offer this condition, this guy Xu Ye would undoubtedly return to being the most loyal dog at her feet!

Yet, after waiting for the better part of a day, Xu Ye hadn't replied at all.

Had he not seen it?

Or could it be... that he was still putting on airs in front of her?!

Ultimately, however, her own plan was far more important. After pondering for a moment, she finally picked up her phone, found Xu Ye's phone number, and dialed it directly.

"Sorry, the number you have dialed is powered off..."

Powered off?

He blocked me again?

"Bang—"

Furious, she hurled her phone straight onto the ground.

Bastard, this damn bastard!!

...

"Xu—Ye!"

"The bastard is coming out! Later, make sure to find a secluded spot and beat the living daylights out of him. Beat him half-to-death or cripple him, and put all the blame on me, damn it!"

Right outside the main gates of the school, Qi Mingyu stood with a few punks, gritting his teeth as he watched Xu Ye walk toward the parking lot.

This damned bastard—even after he had lowered his pride to apologize, Xu Ye still refused to forgive him. What did he want? Was he trying to drive him to his grave?

Since that was the case, they would all die together!

He had nothing left to lose anyway; wasn't it just a matter of putting his life on the line?

Bring it on, let's go down together! Let's see who the fuck is scared!!

Just as he was thinking with a crazed expression, a middle-aged man suddenly strode toward him and slapped him to the ground with a resounding crack.

"You unfilial son, I told you to come and apologize, what the hell are you trying to do? Are you looking for a death wish?"

The middle-aged man was shaking with rage, pointing at Qi Mingyu and chewing him out with a torrent of abuse. Still unsatisfied, he raised his foot and delivered several vicious kicks to Qi Mingyu's body.

"Dad, do you think I wanted this? It's that bastard Xu Ye, he's the one pushing us into a dead end..."

Qi Mingyu tried to explain with an unconvinced look, but before he could finish his sentence, he was met with several more heavy slaps.

"Is your head filled with nothing but shit?"

"Just because he won't forgive you, you want to cripple him?"

"Would Master Hu let you off the mark?"

"Would he fucking let us off, let our whole family off?!"

"This..."

Qi Mingyu panicked instantly. Previously, he had been blinded by rage and completely ignored the consequences of such an action.

Now, reminded by his father, he finally came to his senses regarding the severity of the situation.

Indeed, that was Master Hu they were talking about.

Did he really think offending someone could be settled just by throwing away his life?

And most crucially of all, he didn't want to die at all!

"Dad, what should we do now then? He still won't forgive us..."

Just as Qi Mingyu was speaking, he suddenly saw something and shrieked almost instinctively: "Dad, look over there! It looks like someone else is going after Xu Ye to make trouble!"

Qi Dachao hurriedly turned his head to look, and sure enough, he spotted a young man accompanied by two blonde-haired thugs walking menacingly toward Xu Ye.

"Damn it, what are you standing around for? Someone's causing trouble for Young Master Xu, this is our chance to shine! Hurry up, take the men over there and give them a thorough beating!"

Qi Dachao's eyes lit up instantly. He planted a kick squarely on his son's backside and charged toward the scene, taking the lead.

The young man was none other than Xu Zhikun.

From last night until now, his lungs were fit to burst with anger.

First, Xu Ye had bullied his mother, older brother, older sister, and aunt, and then gotten him beaten up twice for nothing, leaving him saddled with fifteen million in debt.

What was even more hateful was that his car had been impounded and his girlfriend had been scared off.

What kind of enmity was this?

It was utterly psychotic, equivalent to murdering his parents!

Therefore, the moment he laid eyes on Xu Ye, he couldn't even be bothered to speak. He waved his hand at the two thugs beside him, intending to break Xu Ye's legs first and talk later.

However, before he could make a move, a heavy foot suddenly kicked out sideways, slamming into him and sending him tumbling to the ground, nearly rupturing his kidney.

"Ah—"
