Ruan Bei was almost driven crazy by Bai Miaomiao at school.

He vented his anger and cleared away the mental obstacles from his past life, feeling refreshed and enlightened.

However, Bai Miaomiao was in a state of excitement, and after years of pent-up frustration, she wanted to vent her anger and find someone to talk to, even if it was just to complain and laugh at Lu Sibai's downfall and humiliation.

Unfortunately, his brother would only listen to him, never agree with him. He could only admire Lu Sibai's ugly photos by himself. If it weren't so late, he would have called Ruan Bei to bother him.

When Ruan Bei met the next day, he had to have a good chat with him. But Ruan Bei was too talkative. At first, Ruan Bei could still talk to him, but later he got annoyed so much that he had to ask Qin Gu to share the burden. Only then could he barely hold on.

At lunchtime, the three of them ate together again. Bai Miaomiao slyly told them that Zeng Peng might be in a relationship. He had been chatting with a girl a lot lately, and he might soon be able to shake off his status as the only single guy in the dormitory.

Ruan Bei didn't discourage him because he had provided some gossip. After Zeng Peng got a girlfriend, Bai Miaomiao was the only single guy in the dorm, and he hadn't even won over his brother yet.

Ruan Bei became interested, and the two gossiped for a while before deciding to watch the show secretly, so as not to disturb Zeng Peng or ruin their relationship.

The advantage of having two professional classes back-to-back is that we don't have to change classrooms. After finishing the first long class in the afternoon, there was a 20-minute break. Ruan Bei rubbed his slightly frozen fingers and stood up: "I'm going to buy water. Do you want me to bring some?"

Qin Gu put down his pen: "I'll go."

"No need." Ruan Bei rubbed his chin against the soft scarf and joked, "I don't want to give the scarf back to you."

He left his scarf at home; it belonged to Qin Gu.

Qin Gu laughed along, "If you don't want to return it, then don't. What's mine is yours."

Bai Miaomiao hissed, her teeth aching, and pushed Ruan Bei out: "So cheesy! I want a cup of hot milk, hurry up."

Zeng Peng: "Just bring me something."

"No matter how much milk you drink, you won't be taller than me." Ruan Bei threw out a personal attack and, before Bai Miaomiao could retaliate, darted out of the classroom with light steps.

Bai Miaomiao put her hands on her hips and glared at Qin Gu resentfully.

Qin Gu continued writing in his notebook, without even raising an eyebrow: "What's the use of glaring at me? I'm not as good as Xiao Bei Gao to begin with."

Bai Miaomiao: "...You two are really a couple."

Qin Gu put down his pen, looked up and smiled: "Thank you for the compliment."

Bai Miaomiao: "..."

One against two, I can't win, so frustrating.

Meanwhile, Ruan Bei had already gone to the nearest beverage shop to buy hot drinks. He carried all four of them in his hands, and worried that he would be late if he went back too late, so he ran a few steps.

"Ruan Bei?!" However, he was stopped by someone as soon as he arrived at the teaching building.

Ruan Bei turned his head and saw the boy not far away; his pupils contracted.

"You're Ruan Bei?" Qin Shen looked him up and down. Just as Si Bai had said, his family was very poor. He had never seen the brand of his clothes before; they were probably some no-name brand.

He is indeed handsome and refined; even Qin Shen couldn't lie and say he wasn't good-looking.

But when Qin Shen thought of the injuries on Si Bai's body and face, his eyes unconsciously filled with contempt and disgust.

No matter how outstanding her looks are, with such a vicious mind, she's a waste of her face.

"Something's up."

Ruan Bei was wondering why Qin Shen had come to see him. Could it be that Lu Sibai had lost his mind and told him? Weren't they still not reconciled? Had Qin Shen washed his hair?

Then he noticed Qin Shen's unfriendly gaze and negative facial expression, and immediately felt disgusted.

Why should I? In the last life, you looked down on me in every way, as if I were some kind of garbage bacteria. Now that we've met in this life, why are you still causing trouble?

"It's nothing important, I just wanted to warn you—I haven't finished speaking, why are you leaving?"

Qin Shen took two steps forward and blocked Ruan Bei's path, while his men also helped him stop Ruan Bei.

Ruan Bei sneered: "Who are you? Why should I listen to what you say?"

Qin Shen thought he really didn't know who he was, and was about to introduce himself when he suddenly remembered that given Ruan Bei's background, he probably wouldn't know even if he told him.

"You don't need to know who I am, you just need to know why I'm looking for you."

Ruan Bei was so angry at his shamelessness that she laughed. How could he say such surreal and brainless lines so seriously? Was he infected by Lu Sibai's idiocy?

"I say, you're quite calm. You did such a vicious thing, don't you feel any regret or guilt at all?" Qin Shen was provoked by Ruan Bei's calm reaction, which was completely different from the scenario he had imagined.

"Are you crazy?" Ruan Bei didn't want to argue with him, so she rolled her eyes and prepared to leave.

"stop!"

Qin Shen scolded him, and his subordinate immediately reached out to pull Ruan Bei away, but Ruan Bei dodged him: "Don't touch me."

"Go apologize to Sibai!" Qin Shen was furious. He felt that Ruan Bei was incorrigible and so he stopped saying anything more and made the demand directly.

"Huh?" Ruan Bei was amused: "What nonsense are you talking about? Why should I apologize to him?"

"You beat him up like that, you..."

Ruan Bei interrupted him without any politeness: "Can you call it a beating for throwing away trash? After you throw away the trash, will you apologize to the trash?"

"You...you actually..."

"What about me?" Ruan Bei had completely found her rhythm and interrupted Qin Shen again before he could finish speaking: "Lu Sibai didn't tell you, did he? He spent a long time in the trash can with his kind last night. I saw him having a good time in there, and he even swam around."

Qin Shen was stunned. He subconsciously recalled that when he went there last night, Lu Sibai seemed to have just finished taking a shower.

With so many injuries on his body, why is he in such a hurry to take a bath?

"If you don't believe me, I'll show you."

Ruan Bei switched the drink to one hand, took out her phone, and showed Qin Shen photos: "Look, aren't they nice?"

He held the phone right in front of his eyes, forced to look even if he didn't want to. Lu Sibai was squatting in the trash can, covered in filth, and it seemed like you could smell the stench even through the screen. Qin Shen instinctively covered his mouth and nose.

Ruan Bei couldn't help but chuckle: "Looks like you didn't see it last night. You're already complaining about this. If you had seen it, none of this would have happened today, right?"

"You're shameless!" Qin Shen awkwardly lowered his hand, then said angrily, "You bullied others by relying on your power, and you even had the nerve to take photos? Do you really think you can be taken advantage of by the Lu family..."

"If you're mentally ill, go see a doctor as soon as possible." Ruan Bei interrupted him coldly. He didn't want to hear about himself being involved with the Lu family, especially from these people.

Full of confidence, Ruan Bei was not intimidated by Qin Shen at all, and he didn't hold back when he started to argue. He glanced at the passersby who kept looking in his direction as they walked by, and deliberately raised his voice: "Oh, I know, you're Lu Sibai's lover, that... that cuckold prince?"

He stared at Qin Shen's hair and kindly suggested, "Why don't you dye this thing green?"

Qin Shen's face turned green, then red.

Especially after Ruan Bei's shout attracted a crowd of students, Qin Shen was so angry that he could no longer maintain his composure: "What nonsense are you talking about? You think the Lu family can back you up? You are nothing. It's uncertain whether the Lu family will even acknowledge you. Even if they do, do you think you can compare to Si Bai? You have no manners... Ah!"

"Your breath smells so bad, let me wash it for you." Ruan Bei looked regretfully at the empty cup; he had spilled Bai Miaomiao's milk.

He had heard those words from Qin Shen countless times in his previous life, so they didn't bother him at all. But he couldn't accept that Qin Shen said he was ill-mannered. He felt that his parents were particularly good at raising children.

"Young Master!" the subordinate exclaimed, rushing to check on Qin Shen's condition.

Qin Shen covered his burning mouth and chin, pointing angrily at Ruan Bei: "Grab him!"

His subordinates were clearly trained, and Ruan Bei couldn't beat him, but he wasn't that stupid to get into a fight in his own school, not to take advantage of such a good opportunity.

So Ruan Bei dodged while shouting, "Help! A rich kid is beating up a student!"

As soon as he shouted that, several boys from the students who were pointing and gesturing at Qin Shen rushed out to help.

But Qin Shen's subordinate was really skilled; those boys were taken down in no time. Ruan Bei tried to run away, but Qin Shen was furious and chased after him, grabbing the hood of Ruan Bei's down jacket and causing him to stumble.

Ruan Bei punched him with his backhand. Qin Shen cried out in pain, his hand trembled, and he rushed over to grab Ruan Bei's arm.

Qin Shen covered his face and raised his fist to hit Ruan Bei, whose hands were locked. However, before he could throw his fist, someone grabbed his arm from behind, and then another arm wrapped around his neck. He felt a pain in his back, the scenery in his eyes spun around, and he was thrown to the ground.

Qin Gu took the opportunity to stomp on his back, then rushed over and kicked his subordinate, who was stunned for no apparent reason, causing him to stumble back several steps.

"Are you alright? Where are you hurt?" Qin Gu pulled Ruan Bei along, searching him up and down.

"No, you'll have time." Ruan Bei rubbed his wrist and gave Qin Gu a reassuring smile.

Bai Miaomiao and Zeng Peng also rushed over and blocked their way, glaring menacingly at Qin Shen, who was lying on the ground, and Qin Shen's subordinates who stood not far away looking helpless.

Qin Shen had never suffered like this before. Qin Gu's angry kick almost suffocated him. It took him a while to recover before he struggled to get up.

His men quickly came over to help him up.

Before he could even stand up, Qin Gu rushed over and kicked him again, shoving his subordinate aside and pinning Qin Shen to the ground.

"Let me go! Do you know who I am? I'm telling you, you're dead!" Qin Shen was furious. He was being trampled on and couldn't get up, so he could only keep hurling threats.

Ruan Bei knew very well that although he was using the title of Qin family heir, Qin Shen was still just an heir until he died in his previous life.

The current head of the Qin family seems to be in good health and could easily serve for another ten years or so. For the next ten years or so, Qin Shen will only hold the title and will be of no use whatsoever.

So Ruan Bei wasn't afraid of him at all. He even ran over excitedly and stepped on Qin Shen's back, together with Qin Gu, making Qin Shen unable to move and only able to thrash his limbs.

Bai Miaomiao deliberately said loudly, "Look at him, doesn't he look like a turtle that can't turn over?"

Ruan Bei laughed: "You're a cuckold, aren't you? The whole country knows your name, the cuckold prince, and you still come to defend your cheating ex-boyfriend. You're too magnanimous."

The onlookers burst into laughter, and Qin Shen felt dizzy and almost fainted from anger.

He slammed his fist on the ground and roared, "Qin Wu, you piece of trash, are you just going to watch me get bullied?"

When Qin Wu came over, Ruan Bei didn't want to fight with Qin Shen's men, and since they were in school, they had to behave themselves. So he stomped on Qin Shen a few more times and then pulled Qin Gu away.

Qin Shen was pulled up by Qin Wu, his eyes bloodshot. He kicked Qin Wu first, then glared at Qin Shen and Ruan Bei: "You just wait..."

He stared wide-eyed at Qin Gu. What was going on? Why was there a young man next to Ruan Bei who looked about 70% like his uncle?!
