At noon, Dong Wenqi went to help the teacher organize test papers, while Su Xi went to the library alone.

After coming out of the library, a group of unknown people came in front of Su Xi.

They were wearing school uniform and should be third-year students.

“Is there something wrong?” Su Xi asked, looking at the few people.

“You’re Su Xi, right?” The other party looked at Su Xi and suddenly smiled maliciously. “It’s nothing, I just want to see what the legendary new school flower looks like.”

“We wanted to meet you and invite you out to play.”

Play?

“Invite her to play, you f*ckers!” Before Su Xi could reject the group, there was a sudden curse from the side.

The person who came was Ye Zexing.

Ye Zexing walked up to Su Xi’s side without hesitation. He looked at the group of people in front and then at Su Xi.

“I’m telling you, these guys don’t have good intentions, don’t be fooled and follow them.” Ye Zexing said to Su Xi anxiously.

Being in the school for so long, he knows exactly who these people were. Would they sincerely ask Su Xi to go out to play? Don’t make him laugh.

And even if they were sincere, Ye Zexing still didn’t dare let Su Xi go with them. Who knows what these people were up to?

Ye Zexing was afraid that since Su Xi had only been to school not long ago, she wasn’t clear about the situation and would really foolishly follow.

Su Xi: “……” She’s not stupid. Of course she wouldn’t accept the baffling invitation from this group of strangers.

However, looking at Ye Zexing’s tense face, although Su Xi felt that this person was a bit out of his mind, she was still a little moved.

As for the group of people in front, seeing Ye Zexing didn’t make them happy.

“Ye Zexing, this is none of your business, we’re asking the girl. What do you mean by coming out and brushing up your sense of existence?” The tall person heading the other side looked at Ye Zexing in dissatisfaction.

It’s true that they don’t have good intentions in inviting Su Xi. He promised someone to teach her a lesson.

The solution was very simple. Most of these little second year girls were easy to deceive. They just need to trick her to go into a bar or an entertainment room and then take some photos.

Once they posted those photos on the Internet, no matter how Su Xi explained, others would still think that she’s a delinquent girl with a messy private life.

The pressure of rumors and public opinion was enough to make her suffer.

“Well water shouldn’t mix with river water^[1]mind each other’s business. We third years won’t embarrass you, a second year, so if you are sensible, get lost.” The tall man said, looking at Ye Zexing warningly.

This Ye Zexing was also a tyrant in the school. They wouldn’t go out their way to provoke Ye Zexing, but it doesn’t mean that they’re afraid of this guy who was a year lower.

Normally, they might weigh the situation and not confront Ye Zexing head-on, but today there was only Ye Zexing here, so what was there to be afraid of?

Who hasn’t donated few lab equipment to the school?

Ye Zexing was enraged by these people’s words. “Are you tmd^[2]tamade; mother f*cking idiots? What do you mean this is none of this Young Master’s business? Can you open your dog eyes and see, this is my older sis—err—younger sis! If you want to give her trouble, you have to ask this Young Master if I agree with you!”

Upon being reminded by Ye Zexing, several people on the tall man’s side seemed to recall something that was passed on in the forum a few days ago about how Su Xi and Ye Zexing have a bit of a familial relationship. If it was true, then wasn’t the identity of this Su Xi……

“Boss, how about we think this matter over again?” Someone next to the tall man suggested.

“Think it over what fart?!” The tall one roared. This matter was entrusted to him by the goddess. If he couldn’t do this, wouldn’t he lose face?!

Without much thought, the tall one pointed at Ye Zexing and said rudely, “Even so, what of it? We are asking Su Xi to go out to play. Whether she goes or not is her own business and has nothing to do with you.”

After saying that, the tall guy turned his head and smiled wretchedly at Su Xi. “The place we will go to is very interesting. How about it? Come with us. You’ll like it.”

Su Xi: Am I really being treated like an ignorant little girl?

Ye Zexing: “Who are you cheating here?! You think this young master don’t know how you guys play? You can fool Su Xi, but you can’t fool me! You have no good intentions at all.”

Ye Zexing was about to say more when the back collar of his school uniform was yanked.

“What are you pulling me for? What I’m saying is true, I’m protecting you!” Ye Zexing looked at Su Xi. He’s just protecting their family’s flaw. He wouldn’t bother to care from someone who had nothing to do with him.

“You’re not really going to follow them, are you?” Ye Zexing looked at Su Xi in disbelief, his eyes wide.

Su Xi: “No, I just want to say that you talk too much nonsense.”

Ye Zexing: “……” He— he’s being despised? She actually thinks he’s talking nonsense?

Ignoring Ye Zexing, Su Xi looked at the group of people and then said concisely, “Not going.”

Rejected by Su Xi’s two words, the tall guy’s face suddenly looked really bad.

“Heh, it’s not up to you whether you’ll go or not.” Seeing that soft approach didn’t work, this group of people intended to be tough. Just a petite girl, would they be afraid they couldn’t handle her? Even if Ye Zexing had some combat power, so what? There were so many of them and he was only one, what could he accomplish?

“What? Want to make a move?” Ye Zexing looked at the group and asked without changing his expression.

While Ye Zexing was asking, Su Xi, who was next to him, had already put down the book in her hand and rolled up her sleeves neatly, ready to fight at any time.

Ye Zexing looked at her and the corner of his mouth twitched violently. How could he forget that Su Xi was a person of action, the kind with a 10-star danger level, who could solve anything with violence, and was absolutely unreasonable?

“Stand over there.” Su Xi pointed to a nearby bench as he said to Ye Zexing.

Ye Zexing: “If you want to fight, I’m not going to watch on the side. Don’t worry, my fighting ability isn’t weak. I’m not some kind of weak chicken who needs to be protected.”

Su Xi: “I mean you standing here is too much of a hindrance.”

Ye Zexing, who was disliked by being a hindrance, felt as if he had received ten thousand critical blows in his heart.

———

On the other side, in the company.

Su Jingcheng was in a meeting when he received a call from Wu Ming.

Wu Ming was the leader of the bodyguards specially arranged by Su Jingcheng to protect Su Xi in school. After receiving the call from the other party, Su Jingcheng immediately suspended the meeting.

“What happened to Xixi?” Su Jingcheng’s voice was dripping with tension. If it wasn’t for something, Wu Ming wouldn’t call during this time.

“Chairman, don’t worry, Miss Xiao Xi is fine, it’s just……” On the phone, Wu Ming’s tone was a little hesitant, as if he didn’t know how to describe the whole thing to Su Jingcheng.

The voice of the principal came from the phone.

“Hello, Chairman Su, this is Principal Chen. The thing is, it’s actually not a big deal, Su Xi just had some conflict with other students in school.”

Hearing Principal Chen’s words, Su Jingcheng stood up from his chair. “Conflict? How is my sister doing?”

Su Jingcheng was very worried. Xixi wasn’t the kind of child who was prone to have conflict with others. If there was a conflict, Su Jingcheng unilaterally believed that it must be the fault of the other party. Has Xixi been hurt? Did she cry?

“No, Su Xi is fine.” Principal Chen quickly said, “The other side’s children are injured a little bit and their parents are making trouble in the office right now. If you’re not busy, Chairman Su, can you please come to the school for a while?”

Most of the parents of the students in this school weren’t simple, and it was also difficult for him as the principal ah.

Hearing this, a trace of suspicion quickly flashed in Su Jingcheng’s eyes. The other side’s ‘children’ were injured? And listening to Principal Chen said ‘they’, it seems that there was more than one person?

Xixi caused several people to be injured, but she herself was fine?

Su Jingcheng didn’t believe it.

But because he was in a hurry to go to school to see Su Xi’s situation, Su Jingcheng didn’t think much about it.

“Today’s meeting end here. We will talk about the rest of the undiscussed matters tomorrow.” Su Jingcheng said, then turned around and left, leaving only his hurried figure.

Watching their chairman leave in a hurry, everyone in the conference room looked at each other blankly.

“What happened to the chairman? He left just after giving a sentence.” This kind of thing has never happened before, after all, it was an important meeting.

“From the call, it seems that something happened to the chairman’s sister at school.”

“So that’s the case, no wonder……”

The chairman having a younger sister was already no secret to the company’s senior management, and also the fact the chairman was extremely fond of this younger sister.

Right now, the chairman’s office was about to be turned into Su Xi’s study room.

———

Su Jingcheng rushed to the school. As soon as he got to the principal’s office, Su Jingcheng saw the little one obediently standing behind the principal with Ye Zexing, while Wu Ming stood next to them.

On the opposite side of Su Xi, there were more than twenty people including students and their parents. Those parents looked angry and talking gibberish, making the entire office noisy.

“Principal, your words aren’t right. We certainly won’t make a fuss if this is a small fight between students, but look at how my child has been beaten up!”

“I also want to add, he said he can’t even stand straight. Maybe he got a broken bone. Such an injury cannot be from a simple small fight!”

“The school must give an explanation on this matter!”

“That’s right! If the school don’t solve this, things won’t end well if we make a big deal out of this.”

“Why aren’t the parents of these two here? Are they not coming? Then don’t blame me for not talking about it properly.”

“What else is there to talk about? I’ll take my child to have his injuries examined now!”

“No, I won’t leave until this matter is resolve!”

“These are the two, right? There are no other accomplices? If the school don’t care, then I’ll just bring these two kids with me.”

……

“Where do you want to take my sister?” Su Jingcheng’s voice came from behind a certain parent. There was a strong chilliness in his voice.

After saying that, Su Jingcheng walked quickly to Su Xi’s side.

“Chairman, you’re here.” Wu Ming breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Su Jingcheng appear. He works as a bodyguard and a protector, but he couldn’t handle disputes with parents of other students.

“En.” Su Jingcheng responded. The first thing he did when he came was to check how Su Xi was doing and whether she’s injured. Seeing that Su Xi was fine, Su Jingcheng calmed down.

“Brother.”

“Is Xixi okay?” Su Jingcheng looked at Su Xi and asked softly.

“It’s nothing……” Su Xi shook her head.

“Have you been bullied?”

Su Xi shook her head at first, then nodded.

“It’s okay, Brother is here.” Su Jingcheng smiled and rubbed the top of Su Xi’s head, leading her to his side.

“Tell me, what is this ruckus all about?” Su Jingcheng looked coldly at the group of parents in front and asked in a dark voice.

Su Jingcheng’s imposing manner was so overwhelming that the moment he appeared, the parents who were originally red from anger instantly weakened.

“H-how can you say it’s a ruckus? Our child came to school and was bullied. It’s not wrong for us as parents to come and seek justice.”

“That’s right, we’re not making a ruckus. Our child was beaten up, are we not allowed to come to solve the problem?” Under Su Jingcheng’s cold gaze, the parents voices became smaller and smaller.

Su Jingcheng swept a glance at the dozen or so students sitting on the other side with bruised noses and swollen faces. It seemed that they had been beaten badly. However, their side had dozen or so students, while on Xixi’s side…… with Ye Zexing added, there’s only two people.

Su Jingcheng looked at Principal Chen’s direction.

“Ahem, it’s indeed like that.” Principal Chen whispered in a low voice. When he was invited by the school’s security team leader, it was the scene he saw. The dozen or so senior students were beaten up and were howling all over the ground, while Su Xi and Ye Zexing were perfectly fine as they stood on the side. When he approached the security team, they said that when they arrived, what they saw was one person and sandbags. If they hadn’t arrived in time, the senior students would have ended up in an even worse situation.

At this time, someone in the crowd seemed to have recognized Su Jingcheng and pointed at him with wide eyes. “Y-y-you’re—?”

“Su Jingcheng, Su Xi’s brother.”

Everyone: “!”

Su Jingcheng! It’s actually Su Jingcheng?!

No wonder he looks familiar……

Su Jingcheng, it was an existence they couldn’t afford to offend.

This little girl looks ordinary, but she’s actually Su Jingcheng’s younger sister.

What kind of existence did their children provoked? Was it too late to take them back and give them a beating now?

Knowing that the other party was Su Jingcheng, several parents have already intended to retreat.

“What exactly happened?” Su Jingcheng was frowning at Principal Chen.

From the side, the parents took the lead to say, “I don’t think it’s a big deal, it’s just a fight between children.”

“That’s right, there might be some sort of misunderstanding.” Someone echoed.

“What’s actually going on? Why did you have a conflict?” A parent seemed to be reminded of this issue and turned to ask their child.

“Actually, it’s nothing. In the beginning, we just wanted to invite Student Su Xi to go and play outside. It was Ye Zexing who was meddling.”

“Play?” When Su Jingcheng heard this, his reaction was just like Ye Zexing’s. These ‘play’ obviously held no good intentions.

Su Jingcheng’s eyes became stained with sternness.

“You want to take my sister out to play?”

“No, no, we don’t.”

“No, we don’t dare.”

Several students were almost scared to tears by Su Jingcheng’s aura at this moment—— What kind of people did they provoked? Su Xi’s combat power was so terrifying, and now there was actually an even more terrifying Su Jingcheng. Su Jingcheng was someone whom their parents dare not anger, so they dare not anger him even more.

“My younger sister won’t bully others.” Su Jingcheng cast a warning glance at the parents. “So, take care of your own children.”

When Su Jingcheng said this, his attitude was similar to those unreasonable parents: Our family’s child is so good, she’s definitely not at fault.

But when Su Jingcheng said so, no one dared to refute.

“Yes, yes, we will definitely restrain our children.”

“This matter is a misunderstanding, we’re really sorry.”

The parents assured again and again—— They didn’t understand it themselves. They came here to ask for an explanation just a second ago, but now, they were the ones apologizing.

Su Jingcheng retracted his gaze.

“Since there’s nothing else, we’ll take our leave first.” Su Jingcheng said to Principal Chen, preparing to take Su Xi away.

On the side, Ye Zexing also followed.

———

At this point, those parents could do nothing.

It was a fact that their children were beaten. They could only let Su Xi leave because they couldn’t afford to provoke Su Jingcheng. However, the matter wasn’t over yet.

“Hey, kid, you can’t leave!”

“You want to leave after beating someone? We haven’t finished talking about the matter of hitting people and the medical bills yet! What about your parents? Why aren’t they here?”

Several people stopped Ye Zexing.

But at this moment, Su Jingcheng halted and threw out a sentence, “He’s also from my family.”

The parents: “!”

They could only regret now why they didn’t find out the situation of the other two students before coming here.

“This……”

“You want me to pay your medical bills?”

“N-no, it’s all a misunderstanding. Our children’s skins are tough, so a little friction is nothing.”

A few parents joked to lighten the situation.

Su Jingcheng no longer paid attention to them and swept a glance at Ye Zexing. “Keep up.”

“Coming.” Ye Zexing scuttled behind him. While he was leaving, he didn’t forget to give those senior students a rather provocative and contemptuous look.

———

“Brother, did I caused you trouble?” On the way out of the school, Su Xi shook Su Jingcheng’s hand that was holding her own and asked him with tilted head.

“No.”

“I’m glad.” The corners of Su Xi’s mouth curved into a smile.

She also felt that anyway, in the novel, Su Jingcheng was like the big boss. Except for the male protagonist and those male supporting characters, Su Jingcheng didn’t need to act cowardly when facing other passersby.

“But it really wasn’t me who went to provoke them first!” Su Xi seriously explained her innocence to Su Jingcheng.

Looking at his sister’s serious and ‘wronged’ expression, Su Jingcheng couldn’t help smiling. “En, it’s not our family’s Xixi’s fault. This time Xixi did a good job, but if you encountered such a situation in the future, be sure to tell Brother immediately, okay?”

Xixi suffered no losses today, but how about in the future?

“Okay.”

Seeing Su Xi promised seriously, Su Jingcheng no longer said anything.

Su Jingcheng: “Is Xixi hungry? I’ll take you out to eat.”

Su Xi: “What are we eating?”

Su Jingcheng: “Anything is fine. You choose.”

“Really?” Su Xi’s eyes lit up.

“En.” Su Jingcheng suppressed a smile and nodded.

He found that Su Xi also had the common problem of children her age. They always thought that the food outside was better than the food at home.

Normally, Su Jingcheng didn’t want Su Xi eating outside, but once in a while was fine if it makes this girl happy.

“Then can we have barbecue? There’s a place near here.” Dong Wenqi recommended that restaurant to her. She said that the environment was particularly high-end and the taste was very authentic.

Su Jingcheng actually wanted to reject this suggestion, but seeing Su Xi’s sparkling eyes, he nodded and asked the driver to search for the location.

Then Su Jingcheng glanced at Ye Zexing who was at the side and asked, “Are you coming?”

Anyway, bringing along one person was the same as bringing along two. Coincidentally, this boy can eat more of the food.

Ye Zexing had no idea what was going on in Su Jingcheng’s mind. His eyes were wide and full of disbelief as he looked at Su Jingcheng. Was this real? This eldest cousin who was deeply estranged from their family and never cared about him, actually asked him if he wanted to go eat together?! This was incredible! He’s so flattered!

“Go, go, I’ll go!”

Looking at the excited Ye Zexing, Su Xi muttered “Stupid” in her mind.

“Let’s go.” After getting in the car, Su Jingcheng told Ye Zexing. “Let your mother know where you are.”

“It’s okay, there’s no need.” Ye Zexing said rather uprightly. “I usually……”

Ye Zexing originally wanted to say that he usually stays outside every day until late at night and don’t need to tell his mother where he was, but halfway through his sentence, Ye Zexing didn’t dare continue. He obediently took out his phone and sent Su Hui a message: 【I won’t go home for dinner tonight.】

It was rare for her son to send her a message and Su Hui on the other end was a little surprised. 【Where are you going to play again?】

【What play?! I’m going to eat, a proper meal.】

【Who are you eating with?】 Su Hui didn’t believe that her son would be having a ‘proper meal’ at all.

【With Big Brother.】

Ye Zexing don’t seem willing to say more, but why did Su Hui feel that there was a bit of smugness in this kids words?

Moreover, ‘Big Brother’ means Jingcheng? Su Hui found it hard to believe.

Ye Zexing didn’t want to explain to Su Hui, so he just lowered his head to play with his mobile phone, and while he’s at it, he contacted his group of friends to help him keep a lookout and check out who it was that didn’t have eyes and dared to trouble Su Xi.

On the other side, Su Jingcheng asked Wu Ming about the matter earlier.

Su Jingcheng: “Did you do it?”

Wu Ming: “No, it’s the Young Miss……”

Su Jingcheng explained before that their main job was to secure Su Xi’s safety and that they should try their best to not affect Su Xi’s academic life as much as possible.

So under normal circumstances, they wouldn’t show up for things that Su Xi could handle by herself.

Seeing the seriousness of the matter just now, he planned to stepped in, but before he could act, Su Xi had already ‘solved’ the problem in a couple of moves.

Who could have imagined that Su Xi’s combat power was so terrifying?!

Wu Ming felt that he might be out of job soon.

Of course, Su Jingcheng wouldn’t think that his gentle younger sister would beat someone up, so he naturally glanced at Ye Zexing on the side.

This boy isn’t bad.

Su Jingcheng inwardly commented.

If Ye Zexing knew that because of today’s incident, his evaluation in the eyes of his eldest cousin has improved by leaps and bounds, even surpassing all members on that side of the Su family, he would probably be moved to tears.
