Chapter 92 I feel like I'm utterly useless.
"Make him apologize to Ms. Shen and Ms. Yan using his real name, and pin it to the top of the school's online forum so that everyone knows that Ms. Yan is innocent. The school will also issue a statement that anyone who continues to spread rumors will have their credits deducted and their graduation delayed. We will not allow Ms. Yan to be troubled by this matter again."
For students, this is the most intimidating tactic.
Shen Zhiye stood up, looked at Si Jingxu, and said in a kind tone, "Jingxu, why don't you come over for dinner tonight?"
Vice Principal Ren breathed a sigh of relief, indicating his satisfaction with the outcome.
Si Jingxu also stood up and straightened his coat. "It's too late today, so I won't bother you. I'll prepare gifts to visit Aunt Lan and my sister tomorrow."
"It's settled then. You'll all come tomorrow night. Your Aunt Lan and I will make the arrangements in advance." Shen Zhiye was just being polite.
He wants to have a good talk with the children tonight.
Si Jingxu naturally understood.
Even though he really wanted to see Yan Buyu, he knew that what she needed most right now was her family.
Shen Zhiye exchanged a few more polite words with Vice Principal Ren before leaving.
He glanced at his second son, whom he usually disliked, and said, "Shen Yunqi."
"What?" Shen Yunqi thought Shen Zhiye was going to scold him again, and he was annoyed.
Shen Zhiye walked up to the second young master of the Shen family, reached out and straightened his shirt collar, his eyes filled with a smile, "My son is quite skilled, has he seen any cars he likes lately?"
Shen Yunqi was taken aback. In all these years, this was the first time Shen Zhiye had been so close to him and spoken to him in such a gentle tone.
There was no sarcasm, no barbed remarks, and for the first time ever, they offered to give him a car.
"Sure, Boss Shen, get me one of those Rolls-Royces." Shen Yunqi didn't mince words.
Shen Zhiye's smile deepened, and he patted his right cheek. "Think about it. I don't have any money. All my money is with your mother."
Shen Yunqi: ...
That was close! I almost got moved to tears.
"Jingxu, did you contact the school beforehand?" Shen Yanzhou asked as he walked with Si Jingxu.
Just thinking about it makes Si Jingxu's teeth ache. "I have to deduct Zhou Ze's bonus. He's really rude."
Shen Yanzhou smiled and said, "No wonder. In such a big school with so many people, he can control the teachers from bullying her, but he can't control the students. Thank you anyway."
"We don't talk about this among our own people." Si Jingxu suddenly stopped and stared straight ahead.
The girl he longed for looked worried as she jogged over, her hair fluttering in the wind. The pleasant scent of peaches wafted past her, then stopped in front of Shen Yunqi.
"Brother, are you alright? Are you hurt? Does it hurt?" Yan Buyu took Shen Yunqi's hand, which was covered with a band-aid, and frowned, looking very worried. "Your hand is swollen and bleeding, brother."
"Alright, it's nothing." Shen Yunqi withdrew his hand and rubbed Yan Buyu's head. "It'll be fine tomorrow."
Si Jingxu was filled with regret; he should have gone up and punched the person.
At least she can hold my hands and say in a soft, sweet voice that she feels sorry for me.
Long Yu came over shouting, "Tell me about He Run! This grown man is taking toys from our kids! He even opened the blind boxes that Jingxu prepared for his little sister!"
He Run was carrying a large bag of opened blind box figurines, looking a little embarrassed. "Well, I opened two, they were really fun, so my sister gave them to me. I'll get her the rest later."
Qin Nianke walked up to Si Jingxu and said in a soft voice, "Cousin."
Si Jingxu looked down at his cousin, who looked like a quail, and said, "The matter is resolved. From now on, keep a low profile and don't talk to any shady people."
"Oh." Qin Nianke lowered her head; she hadn't paid any attention to this.
After reporting to Zhou Yixiao, Qi Feng came over happily, "Xiaoxiao said she'll treat me to dinner when she gets back."
The group walked ostentatiously to where the luxury cars were parked.
The school's online forum has become popular again.
[Ahhh! Yan Buyu really is a rich heiress!!]
[Oh my god, I got bullied at school, and a bunch of older guys came to my rescue! It's like a novel coming to life! Can I at least get to act in two episodes?!]
[This is fake, right? The cars are probably all rented.]
[Rent? Wake up! Car rental companies' license plate numbers are like verification codes. Look at these, they're all sixes or eights, Beijing A leopard numbers—check them before you speak!]
[Hilarious! Which car rental company could possibly have so many luxury cars? There aren't even many of that black Zeppelin in the whole country!]
[Is that the car that picked Yan Buyu up from school yesterday? Is that also her brother? They look so good together. I'm imagining a marriage of convenience that blossoms into love.]
Stop making things up. Several people in our dorm who were spreading rumors have already been taken away. Just shut up.
After thanking the others and saying goodbye, Yan Buyu followed his elder brother and got into Shen Yunqi's car.
"Why are there so many people, brother?" Yan Buyu leaned against the passenger seat and glanced in the rearview mirror. Si Jingxu's car was following behind; they were going the same way.
"I don't know. I only called Boss Shen. Maybe they just happened to be together." Shen Yunqi's voice was muffled.
"Brother, are you feeling unwell?" Yan Buyu turned to look at him. "How about I drive?"
Shen Yunqi chuckled lightly, "No, I'm not feeling unwell."
"You seem upset. What's wrong?"
Shen Yunqi could detect her problem through four words, and she could also detect her brother's problem through his expression.
Shen Yunqi knew he couldn't hide it anymore, but he felt a little embarrassed to say it out loud.
After much deliberation, I realized, "I feel like I'm utterly useless."
"Why do you say that?" Yan Buyu frowned.
"Today, you were bullied at school. All I can do is beat up two people; there's nothing else I can do."
He didn't know the school leaders, and the school leaders didn't know him either.
He has no real power in the company.
The lawyer wouldn't listen to his orders, nor could he get the company's technical staff involved, let alone the police.
He used to think that having money would be enough to support his younger sister.
You only realize how ineffective it is when something happens.
In a cannibalistic society, you need not only money, but also power and social status.
You have to be like Boss Shen, where you just stand there and people will bow and scrape to settle things for you.
For the first time in his twenty-four years of life, Shen Yunqi experienced the feeling of having strength but nowhere to use it.
He wanted to stand up for his sister, but he had to wait for Boss Shen to arrive.
Shen Yunqi finished speaking calmly.
Yan Buyu's face was already covered in tears. "Brother... I'm sorry."
"Silly girl, what's it to you?" While waiting at a red light, Shen Yunqi rubbed her head. "I want to thank you. You've figured this out now, otherwise it would be too late when I'm thirty-four."
"You've already joined the company and started working hard, brother. You've been smart since you were little, and I believe you will succeed!" Yan Buyu wiped away a tear.
Although she felt sorry for him, she believed that this change was not a bad thing for her brother.
"I still have some alcohol stored at the bar. How about we start after I finish my drinks? That way I won't keep thinking about it."
She glanced at him sideways without saying a word, "Don't even think about it."
After saying that, she felt her words lacked impact, so she added, "If you drink, I'll drink too."
Shen Yunqi laughed so hard his shoulders shrugged; his sister was so cute.
Yan Buyu's phone rang. She looked down and saw it was Si Jingxu.
[Little Feather, would you like to video call Brother Jingxu tonight?]
Voice messages are also acceptable.
Typing is also acceptable.
He smiled without saying a word.
