The next day.
News of Han Lili being beaten in the restroom spread throughout the school.
In Class 11.
Chu Ying, Han Lili's archrival, received the news and immediately ordered milk tea for the entire class.
"That's great, someone finally taught Han Lili a lesson. Maybe she won't dare to bully people anymore."
"Yingzi, we salute you as a hero for eliminating a menace."
"Han Lili is usually too much. Chu Ying is so much better!"
"Yingzi, you're our leader from now on~"
The classmates chimed in, all believing Han Lili was the one who had Chu Ying beaten.
This was because when Han Lili bullied others, Chu Ying would often argue with her.
Han Lili disliked Chu Ying but couldn't do anything about her, as both their fathers were deputy mayors of Beishi and were rivals for the next mayoral election.
"It wasn't me. I left school too early yesterday and missed the sight of her being wheeled away in an ambulance. What a pity."
Chu Ying denied it, then said gloatingly, "If I knew who beat Han Lili, I'd recognize them as my boss."
"Absolutely, they're practically a hero."
"This is so satisfying, I'd recognize them too!"
A few of her close friends chimed in.
Chu Ying sat in front of Yu He. She turned around.
"You guys..." Seeing only Yu He behind her and not Luo Xiaoyao, she changed her words, "You don't have to be afraid of Han Lili bullying you anymore."
She knew Han Lili disliked Yu He and even wanted to find an opportunity to make a move on her.
Yu He: "..."
Han Lili was not worth her concern.
***
Luo Xiaoyao didn't come to school for three consecutive days. The homeroom teacher said she was on sick leave.
Yu He knew she was deliberately avoiding her question from that day, not answering calls or replying to messages.
She couldn't just wait around like this.
After school, Yu He planned to go to Luo Xiaoyao's house.
But as soon as she exited the school gate, her path was blocked by several men.
The leader was a burly, tattooed man with a gold chain, who had dyed his hair yellow.
He held a cigarette in his mouth and asked, "Classmate, your name is Yu He, right?"
Yu He glanced at the men behind the yellow-haired man, who were all skinny and had shifty eyes, clearly looking like unemployed street youths.
"Something wrong?" she swept her gaze over the leader and asked indifferently.
This dismissive attitude made the yellow-haired man feel insulted.
Other students would usually avoid them, but this girl dared to act superior in front of him!
Very good, it successfully ignited his desire to conquer.
"Someone hired us to give you a good 'servicing'," the yellow-haired man said in a lewd manner.
Yu He's long eyelashes fluttered. She asked, "Who sent you?"
The yellow-haired man thought she was scared. He took a deep drag of his cigarette and exhaled towards Yu He.
"You don't need to know that. She asked us to break your hands and legs, but looking at your looks, I've suddenly changed my mind. You obediently play with us, and we'll guarantee your limbs remain intact."
As he finished speaking, the youths behind him let out lewd laughter.
It was after school, and a few disreputable street youths were surrounding a beautiful, fair-skinned female student. This attracted the attention of many students, but none dared to come forward to ask what was happening.
Yu He glanced at the surveillance cameras at the school entrance and said, "Let's find another place."
The girl's meekness amused the yellow-haired man.
He flicked his cigarette butt and whistled, "Yo, sensible. Come on, brother will take you to an alley."
Ye Zisu walked out of the school gate and happened to see Yu He's back as she followed the street youths away.
Her heart rejoiced, and she quickly took out her phone to take two photos.
This country bumpkin was indeed seducing men outside!
Last time it was a Lincoln, and this time it was street thugs.
She was truly a country chicken from the boondocks, willing to associate with any man.
No wonder Han Lili didn't teach her a lesson that day and ended up beaten; she must have found some street thugs.
If her father found out, would he still keep her in the Ye family?
Ye Zisu thought of this, a sinister smile appearing on her lips. She turned and got into the waiting BMW.
As the BMW drove away, a black Bentley stopped at the school gate.
Inside the car.
Chen Dong stopped the car and looked at Kai Wei's school gate. He asked Qi Nan, who was sitting in the passenger seat:
"Is the nameless divine doctor you mentioned here?"
"I'm not sure if it's the nameless divine doctor, but a 'traditional Chinese medicine doctor'." Qi Nan corrected him.
That night, he went to room 201, but no matter what he said, Han Lili refused to reveal who had attacked her.
However, he had managed to inquire, and today after school, the "traditional Chinese medicine doctor" would come to Kai Wei.
"You're not sure?" Chen Dong glared at him and said through gritted teeth, "Then why did you ask Brother Ting to come along?"
He glanced at the rearview mirror.
The man in the back seat exuded a low pressure, his face set in a cold expression.
Didn't he know that Brother Ting had returned to the Qin family's old house a few days ago and was in a very bad mood?
If this turned out to be a wasted trip, he'd be walking right into trouble, and his bonus for the month would be gone...
Qi Nan could already feel the chill emanating from the back seat.
He rubbed his arms and said quietly:
"I just saw Brother Ting was in a bad mood and thought I'd bring him out for some fresh air. Even if we don't find the nameless divine doctor, seeing classmate Yu He might improve his mood a bit, right?"
"Is Brother Ting that shallow?"
As soon as Chen Dong finished speaking, he heard the back door open, and Qin Beiting got out of the car.
Chen Dong was stunned: Could it really be like this?!
***
Yu He was led by the yellow-haired man and his group into a dark, narrow alley.
The walls of the alley were mottled, the road was uneven, and overgrown with weeds, clearly a place no one would normally pass by.
"Alright, this is it. No one will bother us," the yellow-haired man said lewdly and lit another cigarette.
"Brother, do you want to go first, or should we?"
A scrawny youth asked, rubbing his hands.
The other youths also let out lewd laughter, blocking all of Yu He's escape routes.
"She's so pretty, I wonder if she's still a virgin."
"Her skin is so tender, it looks like it could burst with juice. How about you go first, Brother? I'll take pictures."
Yu He stood calmly, her beautiful peach blossom eyes surveying the surroundings.
No surveillance cameras.
Her peach blossom eyes then scanned the street youths who had surrounded her. They all had knives on their waists; brute force would likely be disadvantageous, so she had to resort to wit.
She took a step back, her long eyelashes slightly lowered, and asked, "Can we do this one by one? The rest can stand guard outside?"
"Hahaha, don't worry, in this great place, even if we stay here for three days and three nights, no one will come! Let's all go at once. It's been a while since we had a group..."
The yellow-haired man let out a lewd laugh, and with the other youths, he advanced step by step.
Yu He's long eyelashes trembled. Her hands moved to the hem of her skirt, her fingertips touching silver needles.
She had no choice but to fight...
Just as the yellow-haired man's dirty hand reached out for Yu He, a stone suddenly flew and accurately hit the back of his hand.
"Ah—" the yellow-haired man screamed.
It seemed like his bone was broken. The pain made his vision go black, indicating that the thrower had used extreme force.
"Don't touch her with your dirty hands."
A man's deep, cold, and magnetic voice echoed in the alley.
