"Oh?" After listening to Wang Bin's words, Li Jia gestured for him to continue.
“We’ve known him for a long time. Three years ago, that guy shaved the heads of all the girls in a dormitory and raped two of them. In the end, he was sued by the families of several girls, but because of his father’s connections, he somehow got medical parole. Not long after, news came out that he had mental problems and was the kind of person with a congenitally dark personality, so he needed to receive treatment from a psychologist at home. From then on, he took a two-year leave of absence from school and only returned to school two months ago.” Wang Bin didn’t know the specifics, but they were all key things.
After listening to Wang Bin's words, Li Jia nodded gently. "I understand. I don't want anyone else to know what happened at the school gate today, so you understand what I mean?"
"I understand! Huang Likai didn't see you hit him, and the students who did see it probably won't tell anyone, so don't worry!" Wang Bin quickly assured him.
"You guys are going to have a girl named Li Xiaoqing accompany you for a race today, right?" Li Jia flicked her finished cigarette butt onto the ground and asked casually.
"Uh...we don't know, anyway, that kid Huang Likai said he'd introduce us to a girl with really long hair, and that we should shave her head so she could race with us and then we could hand her over to him. As for whether her name is Li Xiaoqing, I don't know." Wang Bin felt a chill run down his spine when he heard Li Jia's words. Luckily, they hadn't met that woman yet; if they had, they might have really dragged her into the race and given her a shiny bald head.
"It's good that you don't know. Remember, she's my sister. You guys better not show your faces around B University again." After saying that, Li Jia opened the car door, got in, and started the car. The Passat disappeared on the highway under Wang Bin's watchful gaze.
Five minutes later, a group of people arrived at the finish line in three more Z4s from the starting point. They approached Wang Bin and asked about the results: "Brother Bin, how did it go? Did you take that kid down?"
"Yeah, how did the match go? Did you win?"
"Bin! What's wrong with you? Why are you spacing out?" The other three long-haired men surrounded Wang Bin, watching him staring blankly in the direction where Li Jia had disappeared.
"We lost!" Wang Bin said decisively, then pulled the other three men aside. "Ding Wei, Ah Huo, and Xiao Long, listen up. From now on, cut off all ties with that kid Huang Likai. Also, immediately use your family's resources to find out who that person was, where he lives! Remember! Don't mess with him. It has to be absolutely secretive! Understand?"
"no problem."
"Leave it to me!"
"What's the point of investigating a pretty boy?"
"Ah Huo, I hope you understand that I am the boss of the Flying Bike Clan! Do you have any more questions?" Wang Bin said coldly, looking at Ah Huo, whose face was covered in acne.
"No...no problem, you're the boss, so of course you get to decide! I'm off! I'm going to find a girl to relax with!" Ah Huo said, then turned and got into his car, driving away with a bald girl.
The other two watched Ah Huo leave, their eyes filled with anger. "Ah Huo is getting more and more arrogant. If this continues, I'm afraid he'll cause a huge mess."
"Ignore that good-for-nothing. He's just a hothead who only knows how to chase girls and fight. Sooner or later, he'll run into someone tough and get crushed!"
"Stop talking. We're still good brothers, after all. Remember what I said: don't let him find out. If he does, get out of here immediately." Wang Bin's tone was stern, and his eyes held an unyielding gaze as he looked at the two men.
"Don't worry, Brother Bin!" After the two men answered, the group got into the car and left. The once bustling highway suddenly became quiet.
After getting the information she wanted, Li Jia returned to the dry cleaner. "It seems I need to pay more attention to Xiao Qing. She's never mentioned these things before. If I hadn't gone to the school to find her, I wouldn't have discovered these things this time." Thinking this, Li Jia lay down on the bed, then realized something. Li Xiao Qing's personality was just like that—a little timid and very kind. Even if she was bullied, she wouldn't necessarily tell others, let alone something like this.
In the following days, Li Jia went to the school several more times and communicated with Li Xiaoqing's counselor as a parent. Huang Likai also did not appear at the school in the past few days. According to the counselor, he had taken sick leave and it seemed that he had been beaten and his head was swollen like a pig's head.
It's clear that Huang Likai doesn't have a very good impression on the teacher, otherwise a university counselor wouldn't use such a description. Although this counselor looks very young, which university counselor doesn't have some shrewdness?
Li Xiaoqing's matter can be put at ease for now, and Li Jia has also started working as her own shop assistant.
A week felt incredibly long to Li Jia. It felt like several days had passed, but when she checked the calendar, only two days had gone by. On this day, while Li Jia was still engrossed in ironing clothes in the shop, a beautiful woman pushed open the door and walked in, looking around at the shop's decorations as soon as she entered.
"Hello, how can I help you?" Li Jia had become quite adept at serving customers these past few days, and she approached the young woman with a smile and asked softly.
"Oh? Where is your boss? I'd like to talk to him!" The young woman took off her light blue sunglasses and walked to the sofa in the rest area to sit down.
Li Jia thought to herself, "Well, this is another rich guy. These kinds of people are the store's cash cows, we can't afford to offend them." She went to the young woman and poured her a glass of water. "Our boss is upstairs, please wait a moment." After saying that, Li Jia suppressed a laugh and went upstairs to the second floor.
The past few days of being busy at the store had left Li Jia feeling a bit out of sorts. Today, for some reason, she felt a surge of energy and decided to find something to amuse herself. She went upstairs to change into a brand-new suit and noticed a pair of newly bought gold-rimmed glasses on her study desk. Underneath the glasses was a note that read, "This is for you. Signed Meng Yao."
Smiling, Li Jia picked up her glasses and put them on. "It seems like I haven't been to the study for a few days. I don't even know when Meng Yao put her things here." She looked in the mirror and found that the glasses suited her quite well. She straightened her tie and, with a smile, went downstairs.
"You're the one from earlier...?" The young woman had sharp eyes and immediately recognized Li Jia as the shop assistant from before. Before she could finish speaking, Li Jia smiled slightly and said, "I'm sorry, that was my older brother."
