Chapter 140: Mu Shaoting and He Han (Contains approximately 25% of Xi's content...)
140:
"Let me check the surveillance footage," Mu Shaoting said.
Li Jing asked in confusion, "Why are you looking at the surveillance footage?"
"It's none of your business." Mu Shaoting was too lazy to explain to him, mainly because the explanation was rather complicated. She hadn't even debuted yet, and she didn't really want others to know that she was going to participate in a talent show.
Li Jing: ...
Li Jing looked at the restaurant manager and said, "Show it to her."
The manager nodded and quickly led her toward the monitoring room.
Mu Shaoting had the surveillance footage of her assaulting someone retrieved.
Ye Qingxi sat next to her and watched with her.
These surveillance cameras are all silent, only displaying images.
Ye Qingxi wasn't afraid of her seeing him—even if there were sounds, he wasn't afraid. He was close to Yang Yu and spoke very softly, so she couldn't see his expression or hear what he was saying.
Moreover, he knew his acting skills well; even up close, there wouldn't be any problems, let alone with surveillance cameras that could only be used from a relatively distant, fixed angle.
Therefore, Ye Qingxi was very relieved.
As expected, Mu Shaoting didn't think anything of it.
Li Jing didn't think anything of it.
She directly deleted the part of the surveillance footage showing her hitting Yang Yu.
Ye Qingxi, meanwhile, kept her eyes on the other people in the surveillance footage without showing any emotion.
There weren't many people eating today, so although their commotion was loud and attracted the attention of some people nearby, the overall number of people was small, so naturally not many people saw it.
Moreover, the incident happened suddenly and ended quickly, so the onlookers just watched without taking out their phones to film.
Ye Qingxi was relieved.
He was afraid that his plan would affect Mu Shaoting.
However, this incident also taught him that next time something like this happens, it's best to do it when there aren't too many outsiders around, so that he can control the situation as much as possible and keep everything in his hands.
After resolving the surveillance issue, Mu Shaoting prepared to take Ye Qingxi home.
Ye Qingxi: ...
Oh, so you're really going to hire someone as a bodyguard?
They still won't pay.
Ye Qingxi pondered, "Uncle Li has helped us twice, Aunt, let's treat Uncle Li to a meal."
I should at least express my gratitude.
Li Jing clicked his tongue in amazement. He had been telling me, this child was far more sensible than his aunt!
Mu Shaoting looked down at him and said, "You just finished lunch."
Ye Qingxi: ...But we can't just leave without saying anything, can we?
"It's nothing," Li Jing smiled. "It's just a small favor, nothing at all."
He was already used to Mu Shaoting's spoiled princess temper. If Mu Shaoting really learned how to conduct herself in society, Li Jing would find it quite surprising.
"Let's go. If we're going to do a good deed, let's see it through to the end. I'll take you back."
Ye Qingxi: ? ? ?
Okay? Being a free bodyguard isn't enough, you also want to be a free driver?
Uncle Li, you are such a good person!
Kind-hearted Li Jing escorted them all the way home before returning to his own.
Ye Qingxi also returned to his and Mu Shaowu's bedroom to take a nap.
Mu Shaoting continued practicing his singing.
Just as she was about to eat, her phone rang. Mu Shaoting picked it up and found that it was Yang Yu who had sent her a WeChat message.
Yang Yu: [I'm sorry, it's my fault for making you angry, but I really didn't push him. He's your nephew, why would I push him? I don't know how he fell.]
Mu Shaoting: ...
Mu Shaoting sneered and deleted Yang Yu's WeChat account.
After deleting them, she also blocked Yang Yu's phone number and text messages.
Yang Yu applied the medicine and waited for Mu Shaoting's reply, but he never received it.
Undeterred, he sent another message: "I'm free tomorrow afternoon. Let's meet at Fufeng Garden then. I want to see how your singing practice is going."
However, the message was not sent. WeChat notified him that Mu Shaoting was no longer his friend.
Yang Yu: !!!
Yang Yu was incredulous!
What is this?!
She hit him! And then she deleted him from her contacts!
He's already taken the initiative to apologize! Why did she still delete him?!
Yang Yu could hardly believe it, so he had no choice but to call her.
The phone prompts: "The number you dialed is currently busy, please..."
"Damn it!" Yang Yu exclaimed angrily, after she blocked him!
Yang Yu was so angry that his chest began to heave!
When has he ever suffered such a huge loss!
He had been pursuing her relentlessly for months, spending countless amounts of money, and now she had even hit him. Before he could say anything to her, she acted as if she wanted to sever all ties with him!
It's all because of her nephew!
He's not her son! He's just her nephew! Is he that important?!
And he really didn't push! He didn't use any force!
Besides, what good is his nephew anyway?!
He's full of bad intentions!
Yang Yu felt a tightness and pain in his chest.
After calming himself down for a while, he started sending messages and making phone calls to Mu Shaoting's roommates.
After spending the weekend, Mu Shaoting returned to school on Monday.
As soon as she returned to school, she discovered a problem—her roommates seemed to know that she and Yang Yu had distanced themselves from each other, and they all came to speak well of him.
"Senior Yang Yu really likes you. He sent me a 50-yuan red envelope last night because of you."
Mu Shaoting: "I'm only worth fifty?"
"That's not what I meant. I just think he's serious about you."
Mu Shaoting: "Hehe."
“I heard about what happened yesterday. Shaoting, you misunderstood him. He really didn’t mean for your nephew to fall. He didn’t do it on purpose. He said he didn’t use any force at all.”
Mu Shaoting: "So it was my nephew who fell down on his own, and he was just putting on an act for me?"
Roommate: ...
"I'm not trying to be mean, Shaoting, but even though you love your nephew, he's just a nephew. Your boyfriend will marry you in the future, and then you'll be family."
Mu Shaoting: ? ? ?
Mu Shaoting stared at her roommate in shock, "Are you serious?!"
Mu Shaoting couldn't understand, "My nephew will always be my nephew, but my boyfriend may not be my boyfriend. Anyone who hurts my nephew can only be an ex-boyfriend, let alone someone who is not my boyfriend at all."
She stood up. "Anyway, that's how it is. If any of you say another word in his defense, don't blame me for being impolite."
Roommates: ...
The roommates had no choice but to shut up and stop trying to persuade him.
Seeing that this path was impassable, Yang Yu took another route.
Every day, he would wait for Mu Shaoting outside the teaching building where she finished her classes and outside her dormitory building, holding gifts, just to ask for her forgiveness.
Mu Shaoting was speechless.
A qualified suitor should pursue someone when they ask him to, and if they show their dislike for you, he should get lost.
What does this mean now?
It's an eyesore to her!
So, after seeing him for the third time, Mu Shaoting finally walked up to him as Yang Yu had wished.
Yang Yu was overjoyed. He knew it. Even a fierce woman can be won over by a persistent suitor. Mu Shaoting didn't really hate him; she was just too angry about what happened that day. As long as he gave her enough of an excuse, she would naturally back down.
He has already given too much to Mu Shaoting, he can't stop now, he must become Mu Shaoting's boyfriend, become her husband!
Therefore, there are some things he has to endure!
However, he had just smiled when he said to her, "This is me..."
Then they heard Mu Shaoting's cold voice, "Get out. Don't ever appear in front of me again."
Yang Yu: ...
Yang Yu forced a smile and continued, "Shao Ting, that day..."
"Can't you understand what I'm saying? I said get lost!" Mu Shaoting said impatiently.
"You've really wronged me!" Yang Yu said anxiously, "I'm innocent!"
So, are you going to leave or not?
"I really didn't push him! I didn't even use any force!"
Mu Shaoting turned around and walked towards the dormitory building.
Yang Yu quickly grabbed him, "Shao Ting, you have to believe me."
Mu Shaoting raised his hand and slapped her hard across the face. The sound was crisp and clear. "Let go!"
Yang Yu never expected that she would hit him again!
The marks from his previous beating haven't fully healed yet, and he still needs to apply medicine every day!
But she slapped him again!
She's addicted to it!
Yang Yu suddenly became furious, "Do you think I wouldn't dare to hit you? I only dare not hit you because I like you!"
Mu Shaoting slapped him again!
Most of the time, Mu Shaoting doesn't like to waste words with people. She doesn't like to explain, nor does she like to listen to explanations. If taking action can solve the problem and vent her anger, why would she waste words with people?!
Yang Yu grabbed her hand and said angrily, "That's enough! Do you really think your nephew is anything good?! He's a complete scoundrel, he just wants to break us up!"
Mu Shaoting: !!!
Mu Shaoting raised her high-heeled foot and kicked his foot.
"Ah—" Yang Yu cried out, caught off guard.
Mu Shaoting took the opportunity to break free from his grasp.
"Try saying another word about my nephew!" she said angrily.
Ye Qingxi wants to break them up?!
"Who do you think you are? If Xiaoxi doesn't want me to talk to you, she'll just say she doesn't like you, and I won't see you again! Breaking us up? You're dreaming! Do we even need that word?!"
After finishing his tirade, Mu Shaoting turned and left.
But Yang Yu grabbed him again, and he grimaced in pain, his eyes filled with resentment as he looked at her.
"Let go!"
"I won't let go!" Yang Yu said angrily.
Mu Shaoting was immediately enraged by him and raised his hand to hit him again.
Yang Yu quickly grabbed her other hand, one arm at a time, preventing her from leaving.
Mu Shaoting was so anxious that she tried to stomp on his foot, but Yang Yu had already anticipated this and dodged it.
At the critical moment, it was his roommates who reacted and surrounded Mu Shaoting.
"What are you doing? Let's talk this out and let her go."
"That's right! Yang Yu, let go!"
"Yang Yu, if you keep doing this, I'm going to find the dorm supervisor!"
Surrounded by them, Yang Yu was caught off guard and had no choice but to let go of her.
Mu Shaoting had never suffered such a loss before, and he slapped him across the face again.
Before he could react, she slapped him twice more.
Damn it, they still dare to stop her from leaving!
Roommate: !!!
Yang Yu: ...
Yang Yu was stunned by the two slaps she delivered.
"What are you doing?!" A sharp female voice came from not far away.
He Han was incredulous and ran over quickly, taking a picture next to Yang Yu.
Seeing the person she loved with his face swollen and bloodshot from being beaten, she was so angry she wanted to tear Mu Shaoting apart.
"What are you doing?! Yes, you're rich, you're noble, you're a rich heiress, so does that give you the right to look down on people and bully those who like you?!"
"Do you know how much he likes you? Do you know how hard he tried to win you over? How could you hit him! How could you hit him!"
After she finished speaking, she turned to look at Yang Yu with heartache, wanting to touch his face but not daring to.
"Apologize to him!" He Han glared angrily at Mu Shaoting.
Mu Shaoting: ? ? ?
Mu Shaoting: ...
Looking at the tears in her eyes, Mu Shaoting understood everything.
She chuckled slowly, a hint of amusement in her smile. "Tsk, you're heartbroken, aren't you? Do you wish you could take this beating for him? Or slap me instead?"
He Han reacted as if she'd been stung, "Stop beating around the bush! Apologize to him!"
"What if I don't know?" Mu Shaoting said leisurely.
"you……"
He Han looked at the smile on her face and couldn't understand how she could still smile!
How could she be so mean!
How heartless!
Yang Yu loves her so much!
She hit him in public! She showed absolutely no regard for his dignity!
He Han felt a pain in her heart.
Such a person is not worthy of Yang Yu at all.
Looking at the heartache, pain, and hatred in her eyes, Mu Shaoting found it all laughable.
"Yang Yu, why didn't you tell me before that you had such a person by your side?"
Her smile was gentle. "You wouldn't be thinking of having your cake and eat it too, would you?"
"I didn't!" Yang Yu quickly replied.
Mu Shaoting pouted, "Really? But she's so protective of you, what's your relationship with her?"
“She’s just a friend I grew up with; I treat her like a younger sister,” Yang Yu said.
Hearing his words, He Han felt as if her heart was being torn apart.
Mu Shaoting nodded. "Oh, I see. But she was yelling at me just now. Yang Yu, didn't you say you were innocent before, that you like me, and that you want to continue pursuing me? Well, now your sister is yelling at me and making me angry. What do you think we should do?"
Yang Yu: ...
He Han: ...
He Han fell silent instantly, even a little scared.
She was afraid that Yang Yu would say something that would hurt her, and she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to face what would happen next.
But she also wanted to know, to know how Yang Yu would handle this matter.
Seeing her fear and then at Yang Yu's silence, Mu Shaoting said considerately, "Why aren't you saying anything? Yang Yu, you know I'm a rich heiress, and I hate being yelled at. So if you want to continue pursuing me, you'll have to do something, won't you?"
"Otherwise, if we ever have a fight or disagreement, and your sister comes out and berates me, I can't handle it. People who don't know better might think she's your girlfriend!"
