Chapter 29 Bullying
Ever since he was defeated by Yu Zhi last time, Sheng Jiayi often thought about it and even had trouble sleeping.
He was actually mocked by Yu Zhi with such contempt?
What else did she call him... Little Turkey???
When Sheng Jiayi thought of this, he couldn't help but grit his teeth. He had to find her and make things clear today!
After taking the last sip of wine in the glass, he raised his eyes and locked onto Yu Zhi's position.
Just as he was about to step forward, Yu Zhi stood up and walked out of the banquet hall.
Sheng Jiayi thought that was a good idea. After all, if... this crazy woman scolded him again, it wouldn't be too embarrassing.
He was just about to raise his foot to catch up, but the girls in front who usually had a good relationship with Xiao Li caught up faster than him.
Sheng Jiayi was a little suspicious. Could it be that Xiaoli’s friends also wanted to stand up for justice like him?
He was secretly happy in his heart. He had spared her last time only because he was too lazy to argue with a girl, but this time Yu Zhi would definitely be taught a lesson.
With the intention of watching a good show, Sheng Jiayi followed out excitedly. As he expected, the girls surrounded Yu Zhi and talked about something.
He was about to move closer to listen, but was startled by the action of the girl with slanted eyes.
The other party actually poured red wine on Yu Zhi?
Sheng Jiayi frowned, his face a little conflicted. Although he disliked Yu Zhi, it was a bit too much to pour wine on her.
But that was not the end. Fang Qin actually stepped forward and pushed Yu Zhi hard, causing the latter to bump into the banyan tree with an expression that was obviously in pain.
Seeing Yu Zhiguang's face full of grievance but not saying a word, Sheng Jiayi actually felt a little disappointed in him.
Wasn't she very poised and eloquent when she scolded herself then? Why was she acting like a frightened quail now?
His face darkened and he stepped forward quickly: "What are you doing?"
The girls were startled and subconsciously hid the empty wine glasses behind their backs, but they breathed a sigh of relief when they saw who was coming.
"Mr. Sheng, we..." She showed a disgusting smile and was about to invite Sheng Jiayi to join this humiliation game.
Suddenly, a voice that was enough to make them tremble with fear came from the other end: "Zhizhi!"

Wei Yuan just came out to answer a call and saw a group of people gathered here.
When he glanced in casually, he saw the little girl who sent messages to him every day and was missed by him, leaning against the banyan tree with red eyes. Her once dazzling purple dress was now stained with mottled wine stains.
Wei Yuan shouted angrily, suddenly moved in front of Yu Zhi, took off his suit jacket and put it on her.
"Are you okay?" he asked anxiously, but he saw that the girl's smooth arm was rubbed by the knots of the banyan tree, leaving large red marks on the skin, and traces of bright red blood were oozing out.
As if she finally had someone to rely on, the tears in Yu Zhi's eyes fell and landed on the back of Wei Yuan's hand.
Her tears seemed to carry a burning sensation, like a red-hot iron, imprinting a mark on the skin covered with blue veins.
Wei Yuan's heart trembled, and he subconsciously hugged her in his arms and wiped away her tears carefully. His movements were so gentle as if he was afraid of hurting her.
Fang Qin and the others knew that something had gone wrong, and their faces turned pale.
Marshal Wei actually cares so much about this lowly thing? Then don't they...
Sure enough, when Wei Yuan raised his face again, his expression was no longer as gentle and considerate as when he faced Yu Zhi, but rather a rage that had never been seen before, as if it contained a violent storm.
"You... are truly vicious." He was clearly furious. He had never spoken such harsh words before. "I will contact your parents one by one and ask about your upbringing."
Turning his gaze, Wei Yuan saw Sheng Jiayi among them, and his anger intensified: "You, a transcendent, are bullying a girl like this?"
"I... I'm not..." Sheng Jiayi felt wronged, but then he remembered that he had indeed bullied Yu Zhi, and he couldn't bring himself to say anything to defend himself.
With his eyes drooping and his face dull, he whispered, "I...we just can't stand Yu Zhi bullying Xiao Li..."
She thought that Wei Yuan was the extraordinary person that matched Xiao Yu after all. As long as she explained how Yu Zhi had wronged Yu Yu, Marshal Wei would surely share the same hatred with them, and the matter would be over.
Unexpectedly, Wei Yuan didn't buy it at all, and asked in a cold tone: "How did she bully you?"
"She...she deliberately stole the love and care that Yu's parents had for Xiao Yu!" said the man with drooping eyes in a hesitant voice.
Fang Qin's eyes showed hatred: "She just made Xiao Yu suffer!"
Pointed Chin also said: "Xiao Li has become unhappy because of her."
They were wholeheartedly devoted to their friend Yu Yu and didn't realize how weak these reasons were.
Wei Yuan felt that they were unreasonable: "They are simply habitual liars."
The evaluation that was once attached to the original owner has now been assigned to someone else.
"A Yuan, you guys are here," Yu Yu said belatedly, seemingly completely unaware of what was going on. "Hey, what happened to Xiao Zhi?"
Yu Zhi remained silent and just shrank back into Wei Yuan's arms, causing Wei Yuan to subconsciously hug her tighter and let her bury her little face in his chest.
After watching the whole set of actions, Yu Yu's eyelids twitched, and the hatred in his eyes almost turned into a knife to stab the shameless man.
Wei Yuan barely suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice, "Are these your friends? They are bullying Zhizhi."
Zhizhi, it’s Zhizhi again.
Yu Yi’s back teeth were almost broken. How could these two people protect Yu Zhi like this?
"Is there any misunderstanding?" She took a deep breath and tried to ease the atmosphere.
Wei Yuan frowned and looked at her: "They have already admitted it themselves, what misunderstanding is there?"
Admit it?! What a bunch of idiots!
Yu Yu's eyes went dark, and he had no choice but to accept his fate and start cleaning up the mess.
"I'm sorry, Xiao Zhi," she said with both heartache and guilt, "If you want to blame someone, blame me. They... were only doing it for me..."
The man with drooping eyes, pointed chin, and Fang Qin were quite impressed by her. After hearing these two sentences, the paleness on their faces due to fear of Wei Yuan faded a lot, and turned into pity for Yu Yi and disgust for Yu Zhi.
Yu Yi blamed himself again towards Wei Yuan, "Ah Yuan, it's true that my friends went too far today, but can we just let it go? I will definitely talk to them properly..."
Her voice became smaller and smaller because she had noticed the disappointment in Wei Yuan's eyes.
"Xiao Li, Zhi Zhi is your sister," Wei Yuan said incomprehensibly, "How could you just watch her being bullied and then just let it go?"
"I..." Yu Yu realized that her reaction was wrong, which made Wei Yuan definitely dissatisfied with her.
But Fang Qin and the others treated Yu Zhi like this because of her suggestion. If she didn't speak up for them now, her friends would definitely be disappointed in her, and even retaliate.
Yu Yu closed her eyes and relaxed for a moment. She knew that in the current situation, she could only save one side for the time being.
