Although Mr. and Mrs. Xu acted quickly, a group of people reacted even faster—
Suddenly, a tall, burly man in black sprang from the shadows by the roadside. His movements were as swift as a ghost. Taking advantage of the moment when Mr. and Mrs. Xu were stunned, the man grabbed their hands, twisted them behind their backs, and slammed them forcefully against the van behind them.
With a bang, Mr. and Mrs. Xu were pinned to the van and could no longer move!
"Awoooooo—!!"
The man in black moved swiftly, accurately, and ruthlessly. A sharp pain shot through the wrists of Mr. and Mrs. Xu, who were being held down tightly, causing them to scream involuntarily!
Who are you?!
Xu's parents were wailing and crying in pain. Qiao Lingyuan and An Xinmeng were supporting Xu Qingning, and they were so frightened by the appearance of strangers that they took several steps back. Seeing the terrified expressions of her three roommates, Lin Jicheng quickly comforted them:
"Don't be afraid, it's alright! He's just my bodyguard!"
"Lin Si, keep it down! Don't scare my roommate!"
The man, with his cold features and muscular build, who was clearly incredibly fierce in his actions, quietly lowered his head and obediently loosened his grip slightly after hearing Lin Jicheng's command.
"bodyguard……?"
The three roommates were shocked—
Who exactly is Lin Jicheng? He actually has bodyguards with him all the time!
Moreover, aren't these bodyguards a bit too elusive? They were following me from a distance, and I didn't even notice them!
However, the three of them were naturally quite happy to see Mr. and Mrs. Xu's parents looking embarrassed:
Seeing that the two were under control and unable to touch her anymore, An Xinmeng quickly pulled out her phone, turned on the camera without hesitation, and pointed it at Xu's parents—
"Everyone, come and see! How can there be such heartless parents? Their daughter got into a top-tier university, but they still want to force her to drop out!"
"He doesn't work properly and only thinks about making money by selling his daughter. He's utterly inhumane!!"
An Xinmeng deliberately shouted loudly. The surrounding crowd, who initially didn't understand why the two middle-aged men were being held down and were about to come forward to dissuade them, stopped trying after An Xinmeng's shout.
"...You're talking nonsense...talking utter nonsense!"
"This is my daughter! If you won't let her go back, what about the dowry I promised? You'll have to pay it back!"
Xu's parents were still hurling insults, and Xu Qingning was crying uncontrollably. Qiao Lingyuan felt sorry for her and hugged her tightly.
"You two are complete idiots!"
Qiao Lingyuan cursed through gritted teeth:
"Xu Qingning was admitted to university with excellent grades. How can the value she can create after graduation be measured by tens of thousands of yuan in dowry?"
"She's really unlucky to have parents who have no long-term vision like you!"
Qiao Lingyuan looked at the other party's parents, and then at Xu Qingning who was crying uncontrollably. She was deeply moved. She looked at Xu Qingning with complicated emotions, and finally just sighed and hugged her even tighter...
Hearing Qiao Lingyuan and An Xinmeng's words, Xu's parents seemed somewhat moved, but when their gaze fell on Xu Qingning's face, they still wore expressions of resentment and unwillingness.
Lin Jicheng saw all of this, and she said coldly:
"See my group of bodyguards?"
Xu's parents glanced at Lin Si subconsciously, and Lin Si tightened his grip, causing them to scream in pain instantly!
“These people may have taken more than one life while working abroad.”
Lin Jicheng's tone was sinister:
"I'm warning you this one last time. If you dare to harass my roommate again, or try to hurt her..."
Lin Jicheng paused slightly, his gaze suddenly becoming incredibly sharp, as cold as solid ice in the dead of winter:
"I guarantee they won't be so lenient next time!"
As soon as Lin Jicheng finished speaking, Mr. and Mrs. Xu trembled!
Lin Jicheng's sinister gaze was also fixed on the two of them. For some reason, seeing this young girl filled them with a deep-seated fear.
The invisible pressure made Xu's parents break out in a cold sweat. They didn't even dare to look back at Xu Qingning again. They could only scramble back to their van in a disheveled state and escape unsteadily.
The scene was completely silent.
After confirming that there were no further threats around the royal residence, Lin Jicheng casually waved his hand, and Lin Si disappeared as suddenly as he appeared, melting into the thick night like a shadow, leaving no trace...
However, the three girls in the dorm knew that this person was indeed hiding not far from them...
Lin Jicheng looked calmly at her three still-shaken roommates:
"It's alright, let's go!"
"Didn't we say we were going to have dinner?"
Lin Jicheng acted as if it were a perfectly normal thing, as if it were common for a college girl to be accompanied by two or three top-tier martial arts masters as bodyguards...
An Xinmeng and Qiao Lingyuan, supporting the dejected Xu Qingning on either side, walked behind Lin Jicheng, speechless.
"Ji Cheng, the way you made that move just now was so cool, your reaction was so fast!"
An Xinmeng was still in shock, recalling the scene just now, and sincerely exclaimed in admiration:
"And your bodyguard! He's really handsome... I mean, is it really that common for rich people to have bodyguards? Surely not everyone has such a capable bodyguard!"
Qiao Lingyuan shook her head:
"I used to think my family was pretty well-off, but having two or three bodyguards all the time is still way too much..."
"Will they really follow you 24/7?"
"Hahaha……"
Lin Jicheng smiled calmly:
"Don't worry, everyone. Before you entered university, I talked to my bodyguards about the students' privacy. I will ask them to keep their distance from us and ensure your privacy and safety!"
"Just like what happened earlier, if the bodyguard thought we could handle it ourselves, he wouldn't have shown up!"
Lin Jicheng looked back. An Xinmeng and Qiao Lingyuan seemed to be doing alright, but Xu Qingning truly looked devastated. Seeing her immersed in her low spirits, Lin Jicheng sighed deeply.
"Forget it, let's not think about those unpleasant things now... Eating is the most important thing! Let's take the car to the restaurant."
As Lin Jicheng spoke, she stopped in front of a dark green car, opened the door, and gracefully gestured for them to enter.
"Get in the car, let's head to the restaurant!"
The three roommates then realized that they had walked right in front of a top-of-the-line luxury car.
