The boys surrounded Ling Shen, pressing him relentlessly.
Qian Hao had some recollection of those boys; they all came from wealthy families and used their family's wealth to bully others at school. Not to mention students, even some teachers were bullied by them.
The boy in the lead walked up to Ling Shen with a stick in his hand and poked Ling Shen's shoulder with the stick. Ling Shen did not resist and took a step back with the force of the push.
Seeing that Ling Shen didn't resist, the boy became even more excited.
"Hey kid, I heard you're pretty tough, why aren't you saying anything now?"
Ling Shen remained silent, his eyes like the starry sky of an extremely cold land, carrying a sense of coldness and loneliness.
Those people were there to cause trouble. People who bully others enjoy seeing others fight back; that's what gives them pleasure in bullying others.
But now Ling Shen shows no sign of defense or resistance, which is like punching cotton with all your might, which is not satisfying at all.
So the more Ling Shen remained silent, the more outrageous those people became. The leader went up and shoved Ling Shen hard, cursing, "What are you pretending for? A business prodigy? You're just an orphan who's been hidden away for years."
The moment the boy spoke, Ling Shen, who had been indifferent, changed his expression in an instant.
In a very short time, Ling Shen raised his hand, grabbed the boy's wrist, and gently twisted it at the acupoint. Immediately afterward, the boy let out a scream.
"You fucking want to die!" the boy screamed, hitting Ling Shen with his other hand that was holding a stick.
But Ling Shen swiftly reached out and grabbed the stick, pulling it into his hand with a single stroke.
The casualness from before was gone from Ling Shen's eyes; instead, a ruthless glint appeared.
Ling Shen increased the force in his hand, and the boy's screams became even more agonizing. It was precisely because his screams were so agonizing that the boy's henchmen froze on the spot, not daring to step forward.
The boy roared angrily, "What are you all standing there for! Attack!"
The boys looked at each other in bewilderment before rushing forward to attack.
Ling Shen restrained the leader of the boys with one hand and held a stick in the other. Facing the dozen or so boys who rushed at him, he faced them with ease and without any panic. In just a few minutes, all the boys were beaten to the ground.
The boys who could stand up all stood up and stepped back, holding sticks that were even longer than the stick in Ling Shen's hand, but they dared not approach.
Ling Shen kicked away the boy who was lying at his feet, and then with a forceful movement, pressed the boy's head to the ground.
After pressing the boy's head to the ground, Ling Shen let go. The boy tried to stand up, but as soon as he did, Ling Shen stepped on his head.
Ling Shen stood with his foot on the boy's head, raised an eyebrow slightly, and said, "If you don't have the ability, don't make a move."
The boy under his foot was still defiant and tried to struggle to get up. Ling Shen completely lost his patience, gripped the stick tightly, raised it, and struck. After a scream, everything went quiet.
Qianhao stood on the stairs above and witnessed everything.
Less than a minute later, Ling Shen came up from below and bumped right into Qian Hao.
Qian Hao is usually gentle and refined, and he remains calm and composed in the face of any situation, truly deserving of the title of a handsome young gentleman.
But at that moment, Qian Hao bumped into Ling Shen, and Qian Hao suddenly panicked.
Ling Shen's white shirt was stained with blood, and his once neatly ironed clothes were now wrinkled, but he had returned to his usual aloof and arrogant demeanor, showing no sign of panic.
The moment he saw Qian Hao, he guessed that Qian Hao had seen everything that had just happened.
But he remained unmoved, and even greeted Qian Hao calmly: "Hello, Teacher Hao."
He was as calm as if he hadn't been the one who had just hit someone.
From that time on, Qian Hao's opinion of Ling Shen changed.
That eighteen-year-old boy went through too much. No one knows what he experienced during the ten years he disappeared, but they all know that now, ten years later, Ling Shen is a figure that makes everyone tremble with fear.
But Qianhao really couldn't understand why someone like Ling Shen would be involved with their little Qiansui.
Although their youngest son had been cultivating outside for over ten years, he only appeared in everyone's sight after he turned eighteen.
But based on this alone, Ling Shen would not have any feelings for Qian Sui.
Qianhao felt a real headache coming on, and finally felt the anxiety of a mother whose daughter has grown up.
Ling Shen is a man of deep cunning and ruthlessness who will stop at nothing to achieve his goals.
And look at their little Qian Sui, so pure-hearted, kind, and gentle—how could she be led astray by Ling Shen?!
The eldest brother, Qianci, and the second brother, Qianhao, talked in the study for more than an hour, but they still couldn't come to an agreement. The two almost got into an argument because of their disagreement.
In the end, the two had no choice but to compromise: the eldest brother, Qianci, stayed at home to look after Qiansui, while the second brother, Qianhao, protected Qiansui at school.
The two of them each performed their duties, protecting Qian Sui in every way and preventing that wolf Ling Shen from getting close to their innocent little Qian Sui.
After the two of them came out of the study, they passed by Qian Sui's room. The older brother smiled slyly and said, "I blocked that kid Ling Shen on WeChat. Let's see how he contacts Qian Sui now."
However, the brothers still miscalculated.
Ling Shen has blocked Lu Jiayan on WeChat, but Lu Jiayan is still on his side.
Ling Shen, on the other side, found that he had been blocked by Qian Ci, which was not unexpected. After all, if he had a younger sister, he would not want her to have any contact with a strange and dangerous person like him.
Actually, being blocked on WeChat isn't a big deal. As long as he goes back, there are plenty of ways to get close to him.
But these past few days, unable to go back, Ling Shen felt a bit stifled.
In particular, Lu Jiayan would convey all sorts of messages to him every day.
"Chitose has become the school beauty!"
"Chitose got confessed to by a boy again today!"
......
Ling Shen became increasingly annoyed by such news.
Perhaps it was his childhood experiences that shaped Ling Shen's obsessive and gloomy personality. He was extremely possessive, and once he decided something was his, he would not allow anyone else to touch it, let alone a living person like Qian Sui.
Although he knew that Chitose wouldn't pay any attention to those people, he was still uncomfortable because the kitten he had his eye on was being stared at.
So he called Lu Jiayan and said, "Keep an eye on Qian Sui while you're at school these days. Be aware of any strange people getting close to her."
Lu Jiayan had been waiting for this moment. After he learned that Ling Shen had been blocked on WeChat, he felt that a business opportunity had arrived.
Lu Jiayan cleared his throat and didn't hold back when he started criticizing his own boss.
"Mr. Ling, although I am one of your people, I don't do everything. After all, I also have my own principles."
Ling Shen sneered, "You want to die?"
