475 A Happy Couple
Xiang Feng La was inwardly annoyed by how slow Ji Su was handling the matter, not knowing that even Ji Su was stumped by how difficult to locate both Dorian and Ghu Sota.
Do you know how of his trusted high-tier guards he sent to do the job, only for them to return speculating that the duo might not be in the country?
It was true.
Even Ji Su felt he hadn't seen the duo for long since that time at the auction house.
It was as though they vanished into thin air, making it incredibly hard for him to have his revenge.
Honestly, he was beginning to doubt whether they were ever coming back at this rate.
What was even more weird was that school had just resumed 2 weeks ago, but the duo was nowhere in sight.
Of course, now that they graduated from high school, everyone was heading to prestigious Institutions of higher learning within the city and the country.
For Dorian, he can accept that the trash had no finances or ways to go back to school, but what about Ghu Sota, the future Clan heir?
Are they not going to send him to school anymore?
Even if he, Ji Su, wasn't in the same school/Institution as Ghu Sota, he would get news of where he was schooling since Ghu Sota himself was a popular person many girls wished to tie down.
Don't mind as he looked silly and was troublesome.
As the heir and future patriarch of the Glu Clan, how can he not be popular? How can many women not dream of crawling into his bed?
The school forums would've been storming the ace with pictures of him by now had he entered any of the Institutions.
What's more his men were keeping a close eye on Ghu Sota's matter and would have reported if he was spotted in any of the instructions.
This made Ji Su wonder if Ghu Sota went schooling abroad or if in some exclusive institution within the country that even he knew nothing about.
As for Dorian's matter, he couldn't understand where the arrogant son of a b**ch had gone to or was he hiding in his mansion, too afraid to step out?
His men had camped outside the estate for several days now and hadn't even seen Dorian come in or out of the mansion.
In short, whether it was Ghu Sota's matter of Dorians, they both gave him headaches that could last a month.
Gently caressing her hair, Ji Su could only share his thoughts with his future woman.
"Xiao Xiao, those 2 are really sneaky. It seems they are afraid of my wrath and are hiding from my men. I suspect they might not even be in the country."
"Really?"
Xiang La's eyes lit up like stars, feeling more and more that the man she finally chose to settle with was indeed a strong one.
She also wouldn't have settled for him so quickly if Bho Jin hadn't grown distant from her recently.
Of the 6 prominent households, only the Bho, Tian, Su and Ghu families had young heirs her age who were not married or tied down.
Dorian Tian was definitely out of the picture after his collapse, leading her to focus on Ghu Sota, Ji Su and Bho Jin.
She thought she could keep playing the game between the 3, enjoying all the perks and money they sent her steadily.
But somewhere across the line, Ghu Sota became distant, followed by Bho Jin.
With fate making the choice for her, she knew she had to grab Ji Su before it was too late.
Thus, she agreed to him on the condition that he teaches Ghu Sota and Dorian a lesson they would never forget.
.
As for Bho Jin, she wasn't so adamant in hating him, not wanting to completely offend him.
She felt that although he blatantly kept distancing himself from her, she could still work her magic on him later if need be.
After all, she was taking him as her backup should Ji Su disappoint her.
After all, it was never wise for anyone to put all her eggs in one basket.
Now, heading that both Dorian and Ghu Sota had gone into hiding because of fear of Ji Su, this only made Xiang La even prouder.
Sure enough, the man fate had prepared for her was the best in the group.
He was swift with his promises and kept looking for them all this while.
It's just that the duo had already sensed his plans and took off before her Ji Su could act.
This much made her pleased
At most, even if she ran into them in the future, she could scare them away into silence by mentioning JI Su's name.
She always thought all these 6 prominent families were equal. But for Gho Sota to fear Ji Su so much that he ran away meant the Su family was stronger.
Yes yes, it must be.
Just look at how powerful and scary-looking Chen Su, Ji Su's father looked.
She felt so uncomfortable and intimidated around him, but so what?
No matter how fearful he looked she would never back down from her goal.
"Brother Ji... why don't we just let them go? I don't think they meant to harm me... I-I-I-"
09:56
"Xiao Xiao, you are too kind. After what they did to you, you still want me to let them go, but I refuse... Already, The Ghu family in her eyes were weakling if they could allow their heir to run away without even putting up a fight.
Leaning into Ji Su's chest, Xiang Feng La was finally content, not wanting to focus on the matter anymore.
Of course, she must always seem calm and kind to Ji Su's eyes since that's the persona most men loved.
"Brother Ji... why don't we just let them go? I don't think they meant to harm me... I-I-I-"
"Xiao Xiao, you are too kind. After what they did to you, you still want me to let them go, but I refuse... Xiao Xiao, if you love me like you say, then let me do this one thing!"
"You--" Xiao Feng La acted as though she was conflicted, making Ji Su love her kind and innocent nature even more.
"Please, Xiao Xiao, let me do this one selfish thing!"
"Ok-okay... alright. Brother Ji, just know that whatever you do I will always be by your side with my full support."
"Thank you, Xiao Xiao! Thank you! I promise to do this quickly when they resurface again."
Xiao Feng La inwardly nodded, ease by how easy it was to make Ji Su do her bidding.
At least now, she was no longer in a rush to trample Dorian and Ghu Sota.
Why should she be when they were practically so scared of her man?
In a place where Ji Su couldn't see, Xiao La smiled cruelly, thinking of their fates.
'You guys shouldn't blame me for being rude. For now, I'll let Brother Ji deal with you. And even if he doesn't kill you I don't believe that when I become Mrs. Su, the future Matriarch, I won't be able to kill you all.'
Like so, the couple no longer brought up the matter again, focusing on school issues instead.
"Brother Ji, we came back this time on a 3-day leave but don't forget that Monday is teacher Kia Pu's class. I heard that she herself is a top member of the World research organization. She doesn't care about our backgrounds. So if we don't turn in our reports by Monday', won't she make things difficult for us?"
"I know... that's why I had someone do the reports for us."
"Ahhh!--... Brother Ji! You are amazing!"
(^_^)

Love was in the air for the young couple, as they quickly threw the issues of finding Ghu Sotaand Dorian at the back of their heads.
F***!
If Ghu Sota knew what they were truly thinking, he would waste no time taking a leave of absence from the academy grounds and pompously appearing before them, smacking his chest like a gorilla to show he wasn't afraid.
Please!
He has fought and witnessed many far more terrible things than an arrogant Ji Su who felt he could throw his money around like water.
Who is afraid of whom?
Screw you!
If Ji Su's father, Old Su, couldn't even beat his grandmother, Old Madam Ghu in a fight, then who will he, Ghu Sota, be not to uphold the family tradition?
Luckily for Ji Su, his thoughts were not known to Ghu Sota.
Although even if known, Old Madam Ghu would never let Ghu Sota out of the academy.
The only reason he could go out is if he was going for a mission, or if it was something urgent approved by at least 6 elders.
Academy disciples had one primary task, which was to train and train alone.
Outer Sect disciples could leave the academy once every three months without permission.
Inner sect disciples could leave twice without permission every 3 months.
In short, the higher one's current standing in the academy, the higher the perks. And wouldn't you know it, Ghu Sota has already blown his outing quotas.
He could now only leave if on a mission or if going for an urgent private matter approved by at least 6 elders.
Well, today was another exciting time in the academy.
Disciples flooded the scene in all corners, as many leaped through the air and even swam crazily to get back to the main academy grounds.
'Dammit! I hope I'm not late.' Ghu Sota murmured under his breath.
The Ranking Competitions were about to begin!
