He bowed deeply and said sincerely, "From now on, I am yours."

Shi Xi: ? ? ?

Han Yan: ...

Qin Xue: ……

A flock of crows flew across the room; awkward.

Han Yan kicked Zhou Jin with his healthy foot. "What, you're repaying a life-saving debt with your body? The three of us saved you, are you going to split yourself in three? Master and Qin Xue are both women, but I'm a man. Who asked you to repay me with your body? If you want to be my grandmaster, I'll be the first to object."

Qin Xue excitedly hugged Shi Xi, "The fairy is mine, you can't take her away. I don't need you to repay me with your body, and I don't want the fairy either. Don't even think about it. Humph—"

Zhou Jin blushed and hurriedly said, "No, that's not what I meant. What I meant was that my life is yours from now on. If you tell me to go east, I will never go west. I will do whatever you tell me to do."

Well, this whole promise has turned into selling oneself into slavery.

"Zhou Jin, we're all friends, it's only right that we help each other out when things get tough, so don't be too upset." Shi Xi had a headache and didn't know how to comfort the young man.

"I—" Zhou Jin really didn't know how to repay them.

Qin Xue put her arm around Zhou Jin's shoulder and said fiercely, "Do you still consider us your brothers? Being so wishy-washy, are we still friends?"

Han Yan threatened, "If you bring this up again, I'll beat you to death. Don't mention it again, you hear me?"

Zhou Jin was indeed "threatened" and stopped mentioning repaying them. He secretly resolved that if they ever faced difficulties in the future, he would risk his life to help them.

He didn't know that in the near future, this statement would actually come true.

Qin Xue took Shi Xi's hand and made a fist. She also extended her fist to meet Shi Xi's fist. "You two come over here too."

Han Yan's fist pressed against theirs, and Zhou Jin also stretched out his hand, making a fist, so the four fists pressed against each other.

The four of them exchanged a smile.

After this life-or-death experience, the four men became even closer.

From then on, they were inseparable at school, and their classmates jokingly called them the "Gang of Four".

"How's the school situation going?" Shi Xi's phone broke again, and she hasn't bought a new one yet. She doesn't have a phone and doesn't know anything about the school situation.

Qin Xue peeled the apple into small pieces and fed it to the little fairy, her heart blazing with anger. "The private investigator that Yan Ge and I hired gave us their investigation results this morning, and we posted them online. Many people still don't believe that Zhou Jin was wronged, and then, hehe, the surveillance video was posted online, giving those haters a good slap in the face. I can hear the loud slapping sound even through the screen."

"However, I wonder which big shot put the surveillance video online. Little fairy, do you know about it?"

Shi Xi knew, of course. She only asked Boss Di for help, so it must be him.

"I know, but it has to be kept secret."

Seeing that Shi Xi didn't want to talk, Qin Xue and the others didn't ask any further questions.

Qin Xue continued, "The principal was also found to have accepted bribes and abused his power for personal gain, and he was arrested. Hua Rui was also arrested by the police for defamation and framing. She's finished now. People online are apologizing to Zhou Jin and cursing the principal and Hua Rui. Sigh, the internet is truly a world of keyboard warriors."

Shi Xi sneered, "They're just sitting on the internet, not knowing the truth, attacking the person involved based on hearsay. Sometimes words are more harmful than real weapons."

Just like Zhou Jin's ending in the novel, he committed suicide because of online comments.

When Shi Han returned from buying food, she saw her younger sister chatting happily with Han Yan, Qin Xue, and Zhou Jin.

Although my sister went to them willingly, they were wrong to hurt her. I really want to hit them.
