Li Xing knew that Guo Hao went to the internet cafe every day. At first, he had even tried to catch him, but unfortunately, Guo Hao always played hide-and-seek with Li Xing. Even if he was caught once or twice, Guo Hao would simply switch internet cafes and even had a big argument with Li Xing and his father.
Later, Guo's father told Li Xing to stop investigating, and his management of Guo Hao became much more relaxed from then on.
Hearing the teasing tone in Li Xing's voice, Guo Hao's face couldn't help but blush slightly.
"I didn't know any better back then... I don't anymore. I'm really studying hard now."
"Haha, your dad told me."
Li Xing looked at Guo Hao with a smile, filled with emotion.
"You've finally learned to behave!"
Guo Hao's face felt a bit hot.
Learned to behave? Perhaps!
If it weren't for Rebirth, he would still be the same as before, indulging in online games every day, living a life of debauchery...
"Regardless, it's good that you've learned to behave!"
Li Xing smiled.
At this moment, the food was served.
"Come, let's eat! If you've learned to behave, then study hard! It's okay if you don't get into Gaokao this year. We can always try again next year, after all, we have the means!"
Li Xing said to Guo Hao with a smile.
"Okay!"
Guo Hao nodded solemnly.
As they talked and ate, Wang Xi next to them dared not say a word and could only eat in silence.
After the meal.
Li Xing had official business to attend to, so he left first.
"Whew!"
Watching Li Xing's retreating back, Wang Xi let out a long sigh. He glared at Guo Hao.
"Damn it, you scared me to death just now!"
"What are you afraid of?"
Guo Hao looked at Wang Xi curiously.
Wang Xi shot Guo Hao a look.
"Are you really that forgetful? Didn't he catch us when we were surfing the internet together??? I just thought he was some police relative of yours, I didn't expect him to be the Captain of the Public Security Brigade.
Damn it! Didn't you notice the way he looked at me just now??? I was so scared I didn't dare to say a word!"
"It seems so!"
Guo Hao smiled sheepishly.
He patted Wang Xi's shoulder.
"Alright, he's gone now! You also got a free meal! Let's go! We're heading back to school!"
Wang Xi gave Guo Hao another look.
The two left the restaurant and rode their bicycles back to school.
Meanwhile, at the school.
"Shěn Luòyàn, I knew you'd be here."
Zhao Ying looked at Shěn Luòyàn in the classroom, who was gnawing on a cold steamed bun. Her face was filled with a mocking smile.
"Tsk tsk tsk, the person you care about is getting beaten up outside school, yet you're here calmly eating a steamed bun. You truly are a cold-hearted person!"
Zhao Ying's lips curved slightly as she stood in front of Shěn Luòyàn.
Shěn Luòyàn's expression remained unchanged. She continued to gnaw on the cold steamed bun and read her book.
Seeing Shěn Luòyàn's composure, a flash of anger appeared in Zhao Ying's eyes.
"Heh heh! You're so calm! You'll be begging me later!"
With that, Zhao Ying turned and left the classroom.
Only when Zhao Ying turned away did Shěn Luòyàn lift her head and look at Zhao Ying's retreating back, a trace of worry flashing in her eyes.
Is that Guo Hao really alright?
Even though Guo Hao said he had an uncle who was a police officer, if he was stopped, wouldn't he still get beaten up??
Shěn Luòyàn worried in her heart.
Meanwhile.
Zhao Ying received a call from Zhāng Xīn and excitedly left the school.
In an alley outside the school.
Quite a few Kill Mark rebels were sitting around. Zhāng Xīn stood to one side, and Zhao Ying walked towards Zhāng Xīn with a smile.
"Brother Xīn, how is it? Did you film the scene where Guo Hao was beaten up??"
Zhao Ying asked Zhāng Xīn with a bit of excitement.
At this moment, Zhāng Xīn turned around with a blank expression and looked at Zhao Ying.
Zhao Ying noticed that Zhāng Xīn's expression was a little off. Her heart skipped a beat, and she asked Zhāng Xīn cautiously.
"Brother Xīn, what's wrong??"
Zhāng Xīn looked at Zhao Ying expressionlessly. He stared at Zhao Ying's face and said calmly.
"Zhào Yíng, come out and stay with me tonight."
Upon hearing Zhāng Xīn's words, Zhao Ying's heart sank.
She forced a smile.
"Brother Xīn, didn't I tell you? My parents are home. If I don't come home at night, my parents will skin me alive. Brother Xīn, please be patient for a while longer. When my parents go on a business trip, or during a holiday, you can do whatever you want to me!"
Zhao Ying said to Zhāng Xīn with a blushing face.
Looking at Zhao Ying's appearance, Zhāng Xīn's eyes turned cold.
"It's not okay with me, but it's fine to mess around with Chén Yì?"
Hearing Zhāng Xīn's words, Zhao Ying was shocked. What was going on???
What did Zhāng Xīn know??? How much did he know about her and Chén Yì???
"Brother Xīn, what are you talking about? I don't understand."
Zhao Ying forced a smile, looking at Zhāng Xīn, still trying to play dumb.
At this moment, Zhāng Xīn walked up to Zhao Ying, his eyes filled with coldness.
He slapped Zhao Ying hard across the face.
"Bitch! Don't you think you can hide your affair with Chén Yì from me! You bitch, messing around with everyone, and when something happens, you want me to clean up your mess! You're so hesitant to sleep with me! Damn! Perverted slut!"
Zhāng Xīn stared coldly at Zhao Ying.
"Let's go!"
Zhāng Xīn didn't mention Guo Hao's matter to Zhao Ying.
After leaving Guo Hao, Zhāng Xīn had someone inquire about Zhao Ying. The more he asked, the angrier he became. He realized he was just a fool!
Zhao Ying was truly a slut, messing around with everyone, and had been with who knows how many men!
Zhāng Xīn was furious and developed a sense of hatred towards Zhao Ying.
Under these circumstances, how could he possibly warn Zhao Ying that Guo Hao had a powerful background? He wished Zhao Ying would continue to provoke Guo Hao and be crushed by him!
"Let's go!"
Zhāng Xīn shouted to the Kill Mark subordinates beside him.
They all left the alley together, and soon, Zhao Ying was left alone in the alley.
Her eyes were filled with hatred as she watched Zhāng Xīn's retreating back, clutching one hand to her face.
"Ptooey!"
Zhao Ying spat.
"Stupid bastard! How dare you hit me! I'll definitely make you regret this! Absolutely!"
After saying that, Zhao Ying left the alley with hatred in her eyes.
Back in the classroom, Zhao Ying was in a bad mood and didn't taunt Shěn Luòyàn.
"What's wrong? Yíngyíng, you look terrible."
"Yeah, Yíngyíng, what's wrong? Your face looks a bit red. What happened?"
"Right, didn't you say you found that Zhāng Xīn to beat up Guo Hao? Why..."
As soon as Zhao Ying sat down, her girlfriends surrounded her, bombarding her with questions.
"Get lost! Get away from me!"
Zhao Ying was in a terrible mood and pushed her surrounding girlfriends away.
Sensing Zhao Ying's unhappiness, the girls around her didn't dare to say more and hesitantly left.
