Chapter 59: Who is the dominant one? Who is the weak one?
The spacious and bright principal's office was now in chaos. On one side were several scoundrels in oddly dressed clothes who had been badly beaten and were wailing and yelling that they wanted to fight to the death.
On one side were two handsome boys, whose noble demeanor could not be concealed even though they had scars on their faces and were sitting quietly in the corner.
The principal looked at the noisy office and suddenly his eyes went dark. He didn't know why Fu Ci, the little fool who had always been like a transparent person in school, was provoked by this group of thugs today and beat them so badly?
It would be fine if it was just a group of hooligans. They were bad students in school who were ignorant and always causing trouble. But now Ji Lin and Fu Ci, who have strong backgrounds, were beaten up by these hooligans. If the Lu family and the Ji family pursued the matter, he would be to blame!
The principal became increasingly panicked as he thought about it. He kept wiping the cold sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief. He could hear the obscene shouting and cursing of several hooligans. He immediately shouted in anger, "Dean, shut those people up!"
"What's all the fuss about?"
"And you always like to bully the obedient students. I haven't even settled the score with you yet, but now that you've been beaten so badly, you still don't want to stop?"
The dean immediately stepped forward to stop them, and the office finally became a little quieter.
Gu Yian happened to be entertaining people nearby and rushed over immediately. The principal was a little surprised when he saw him, but he still went to greet him immediately, "Gu... Mr. Gu, why are you here?"
Gu Yian looked at Ji Lin, who was sitting unharmed in the corner of the sofa, and he breathed a sigh of relief. However, when his eyes accidentally swept over Fu Ci, who was sitting beside him with his head lowered and silent, his eyes sternly said, "Principal, Ji Lin is my cousin. His parents are abroad, and they asked me to help take care of him in Beicheng."
The principal's face paled for a moment when he heard this, and he quickly apologized, "These children are ignorant and have caused friction, which is why the conflict occurred. Mr. Gu, please forgive me!"
Gu Yian walked to Ji Lin's side, but his cold eyes fell on Fu Ci. In his eyes, Fu Ci was no longer the little fool who knew nothing, but an extremely dangerous person.
So he accused her bluntly: "If you want to stir up trouble, don't drag Ji Lin down."
"He's not like you. He was raised in a pampered environment. When has he ever fought with anyone?"
"If anything goes wrong, the Ji family won't let you go, and neither will I."
"Brother Yian!" Ji Lin shouted anxiously.
"Boss Gu is so arrogant!" Lu Shiyan walked in quickly with several members of the Lu Group's legal team. His deep and sharp eyes glanced coldly at Gu Yian, "Since when did your Gu family and the Ji family have the final say in North City?"
The principal didn't expect Lu Shiyan to come in person. It seemed that he was very concerned about his younger brother Fu Ci. He hurriedly smiled and bowed to greet him, "Mr. Lu, you are here!"
Lu Shiyan nodded, then turned his head to signal the elite team of lawyers behind him, "Principal, the campus is a place for students to learn, not a place for people to bully their classmates."
The principal wiped his sweat and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, Mr. Lu is right."
Fu Ci, who had been keeping his head down and letting Gu Yian criticize him, immediately stood up and ran over. The black-framed glasses he had been wearing were broken, and the bruise at the corner of his eye was very conspicuous on his cold white cheek.
"elder brother!"
Fu Ci shouted in a hoarse and aggrieved voice, then immediately lowered his head like a child who had done something wrong.
Lu Shiyan's heart trembled suddenly, and he subconsciously reached out his hand. Just as his slender jade-like fingertips were about to touch the bruise at the corner of his eye, he suddenly stopped and withdrew his hand without a trace, "Aci, are you okay?"
When Fu Ci heard Lu Shiyan's concern for him, his eyes flushed slightly. He stretched out his hand, which was red, swollen and broken from punching, and said pitifully, "Brother, my hand is broken. It hurts."
The hooligans who were shouting just now were suddenly dumbfounded. This little fool is really good at pretending. Does he want to see how miserable they are?
He just had a broken hand, and they were almost beaten to pieces by him, okay?
How did he have the nerve to cry out in pain?
Gu Yian had been hounded and blocked by Lu Shiyan during this period, which caused him to lose several projects and be scolded by his father. He had been working non-stop for a long time.
Seeing him resolutely defending Fu Ci and even confronting him, she was immediately furious. "Ayan, you're going against me just for this idiot... no, this idiot who's so full of evil intentions, regardless of our years of brotherhood, right?"
Lu Shiyan was very disdainful of Gu Yian's scapegoating and snorted coldly, "If you hadn't repeatedly made things difficult for Ah Ci, I wouldn't have targeted you."
"Lu Shiyan, are you trying to piss me off to death?" Gu Yi'an's eyes immediately lit up with flames, and he angrily said, "I admit that it was Han Xiao and I's fault that night. We shouldn't have made such a big deal out of it."
"But I told you, Fu Ci isn't a fool, he's just pretending to be one, and he's very deep-minded. Do you have to wait for him to chew you up to the last drop before you believe me?"
Ji Lin didn’t know why Gu Yian and Lu Shiyan, who were obviously good brothers, suddenly broke up?
He thought it was because of the fight, so he hurriedly explained in a panic: "Brother Yi'an, Brother Shi Yan, this has nothing to do with Fu Ci. I accidentally pushed him and almost ran into those thugs."
"That group of thugs insisted that Fu Ci deliberately bumped into him, extorted money from us, and insulted us, so Fu Ci got into a fight with them."
Gu Yian pulled Ji Lin behind him, his eyes full of vigilance, and said in a cold tone, "Ji Lin, you don't have to explain for him. Who knows if this kid is just directing and acting in a play?"
"He's the best actor."
In Gu Yian's mind, Fu Ci is now a hungry wolf in the guise of a fool. He is scheming and has evil intentions. He has completely lost his credibility.
But his guess was correct. It was indeed Fu Ci who beat up these gangsters in order to attract Lu Shiyan's attention. It was their fault for being blind and walking into the trap. Fu Ci would teach them a lesson to see if they would dare to bully honest classmates again in the future.
Ji Lin was very unhappy when he heard Gu Yi'an say this about Fu Ci. "Brother Yi'an, how could you say that about Fu Ci?"
"He fought with these people to protect me."
Lu Shiyan raised his eyes and stared at Ji Lin, who was anxiously defending Fu Ci, and then looked at Fu Ci again, with a hint of dark light in the depths of his eyes that was both clear and meaningful.
He didn't say anything else, simply telling the legal team he had brought with him, "You guys handle this matter. Make sure those who dared to bully, extort, and exploit weaker students receive the punishment they deserve."
"Okay, Mr. Lu."
Those little hooligans just felt like the sky was falling. Are you blind?
Who is bullying? Who is weak?
