Chapter 661: Chapter 619: Fuck off, Zhu!
"Holy shit!"
"Holy shit!"
When Li Yunzhe announced the figure—ninety-two thousand—Wang Dalu and Zhu Houqing, who had always scoffed at him, couldn’t help but shout in astonishment. They were left dumbstruck and wide-eyed.
Ninety-two thousand after taxes? Did that mean they had received two hundred thousand in gift donations in just over an hour? Fucking hell!
Seeing their astonishment, Li Yunzhe flashed a smug, cheeky smile. "Hehe! Houqing, Dalu, let’s split the money between the three of us, shall we? Thirty thousand each, and we’ll use the remaining two thousand to treat Big Bro to a good meal. How about it?"
"No problem!"
"Old Wolf, you finally said something decent for once!"
Wang Dalu and Zhu Houqing’s eyes lit up, shining with excitement. Faced with this unexpected windfall, neither of them bothered with false modesty. A sudden thirty thousand yuan was enough to make both of them giddy with excitement.
However, before Qin Fan could speak, Wang Dalu seemed to remember something and said quickly, "Shit, what about Fourth Bro? What about his share?"
"Forget it! Just split it between you three. As for me, just treating me to a nice meal is fine. Two thousand should be more than enough!" Qin Fan said, shaking his head with a light chuckle.
"See, Brother Lu? Big Bro doesn’t care about this little bit of cash! He wouldn’t even bother to pick up twenty or thirty thousand if he saw it on the ground. It’s a score for the three of us! Anyway, it’s getting late, and it’s time for dinner! Shall we go? Oh, Big Bro, should we invite the three goddesses from Room 306?"
At the end of his sentence, Li Yunzhe looked at Qin Fan, his eyes gleaming with expectation.
Following Old Wolf’s suggestion, Wang Dalu and Zhu Houqing also turned to look at Qin Fan, the anticipation in their eyes impossible to hide.
Although the goddess Yinuo was already taken, Ruanqin and Mingsi were still available. As young men with a latent shameless streak, Old Wolf, Wang Dalu, and Zhu Houqing were all eager to use their proximity to their advantage, and Qin Fan was their way in.
"Next time," Qin Fan said.
Upon hearing Li Yunzhe mention the girls, Qin Fan’s expression involuntarily twitched. It was a fleeting change, however, and none of them caught it.
"Alright, if Fourth Bro says next time, then next time it is!" Wang Dalu responded quickly, cutting in before the two blockheads, Li Yunzhe and Zhu Houqing, could object.
Although he hadn’t seen the strange look on Qin Fan’s face, the abrupt end to his lighthearted laughter was enough for the emotionally intelligent Wang Dalu to sense something was off. He preemptively took control of the situation to prevent the other two from dragging the topic on endlessly.
Hearing this, Li Yunzhe, who had been about to voice his dissent, was silenced by a sharp glare from Wang Dalu. He hastily swallowed his words and changed the subject. "Big Bro, should I call Dongbei Ze and have him come back? We can all get together."
"Mhm, give him a call. We won’t go far; the campus cafeteria is fine. We’ll head over first and wait for him there," Qin Fan said.
With that, he turned and started to walk away. The three of them quickly followed.
On a campus path, as Qin Fan and his group of four were walking leisurely, chatting and laughing, a sudden, joyful shout cut through the air.
"Zhu!"
At the unexpected female voice, they all turned in unison.
A girl who was a natural beauty was walking briskly towards them, her face beaming with excitement.
"Zhu, where are you all headed?" the girl asked with a smile, not waiting for a response from the suddenly stunned Zhu Houqing.
Her gaze toward Zhu Houqing was full of flirtatious interest, though she kept darting cautious, flickering glances at Qin Fan from the corner of her eye.
However, the next moment, a cold voice came from Zhu Houqing’s mouth, shocking everyone.
Glancing at the girl coldly, he snapped, "Piss off!"
WHOOSH!
Everyone was stunned by his words.
"You—!!!"
Before the girl, whose face had turned deathly pale, could finish her sentence, Zhu Houqing cut her off again. "You bitch! Go find your precious Young Master Guo!"
After his scathing rebuke, Zhu Houqing turned his back on her and walked away.
Seeing this uncharacteristically harsh side of Zhu Houqing, Qin Fan just smiled knowingly and said nothing, continuing on his way. Once their leader and the man himself had moved, the still-dazed Wang Dalu and Li Yunzhe snapped out of it and hurried to catch up.
As for Luo Shiyu, she stood frozen, her face ashen and her body petrified. She was in utter disbelief of what had just happened.
Not long ago, this was the same guy who had pestered her relentlessly, thrown away his pride, and even fought with the well-connected Young Master Guo Shaohong. He had even been the subject of a school-wide viral video where he knelt and apologized. How could her most ardent admirer change so drastically overnight?
"Piss off!"
"You bitch! Go find your precious Young Master Guo!"
Did those words really come from Zhu Houqing? If she hadn’t seen him with Wang Dalu, Li Yunzhe, and Qin Fan, she would have never believed it was him.
Her face drained of color, she stood rooted to the spot, watching their receding figures.
Meanwhile, although Zhu Houqing, the male lead of this little soap opera, had put on a strong front, his body couldn’t stop trembling as he walked away. The intimidating chill on his face had vanished, replaced by a pale, quivering expression.
To act so decisively in front of the goddess he had once shamelessly pursued—abandoning all pride and dignity—it was clear how much courage it had taken.
"Brother Qing, that was badass! So fucking badass!" Li Yunzhe said as they got further away, giving him a thumbs-up with a look of pure admiration. "Haha, that’s exactly how you should treat a scheming bitch like her! Hey, wait a minute... Brother Qing, why are you shaking?"
"Second Bro, is she that Luo Shiyu?" Qin Fan asked with a slight smirk. "The girl at the center of that whole mess with the bureau chief’s son who came to our dorm to cause trouble?"
"Yeah, that’s her! She used to ignore me completely and even complained to Guo Shaohong that I was harassing her," Zhu Houqing said, swallowing hard. His voice still trembled slightly as he spoke in fits and starts. "But after that video of Guo Shaohong kneeling to me went viral on campus, she started blowing up my phone with messages and calls. I never responded. I won’t deny that I used to really like her, but after that incident with Guo Shaohong, I gave up on her completely. I know I could easily mess with her under these circumstances, but I don’t want to. I’m afraid of falling into her trap. A scheming bitch like her... I know I can’t handle it."
"It’s better not to get involved at all. I always said she was trouble; you were just fooling yourself and refused to believe it," Wang Dalu said, clapping Zhu Houqing on the shoulder with a loud laugh. "If you got involved, it wouldn’t be easy to get out. Even if you did, you’d risk your reputation at Jin University and be branded a scumbag. So this ending is for the best! Still, Second Bro, you really surprised us today. I’ve never seen you be so dominant, haha!"
"I may be naive, but that doesn’t mean I’m an idiot! I’m not so stupid that I’d let my dick do the thinking just because she bats her eyes at me! Alright, let’s drop it. All this talk is making my heart race again!"
Seemingly unwilling to dwell on the topic any longer, Zhu Houqing quickened his pace, putting some distance between himself and the others.
