Chapter 218: After all, I Still Hit Hard
Long after, Xue Shao Hua raised his eyes and looked at Ye Liang Chen.
“Can you hold your ground with him alone? If I step in…?”
When he said this, Xue Shao Hua was unusually serious, as if he suddenly remembered he couldn’t joke about his feelings anymore.
Ye Liang Chen was right: loving someone isn’t wrong. The mistake lies with those d*mn beasts blocking your happiness.
Xue Shao Hua had just been questioning himself over and over again—could he accept his beloved girl walking beside another man?
His heart gave him the answer: NO.
Watching Hu Yu Ying being pulled away by someone else, long Tian (Dragon Brother) didn’t consider how much it hurt. Nope, he just stared blankly, pretending he wasn’t crumbling inside.
Well, then, what does he have to worry about?
Besides, that guy called Long Ao Tian didn’t truly like Hu Yu Ying—or maybe he did, just a little. But definitely not as much as Ye Liang Chen liked her.
If that’s the case, then let Long Ao Tian leave. Everything will go back on track.
Ye Liang Chen furrowed his brows tightly. “Are you serious?”
“Of course!” Xue Shao Hua squinted. “Long Ao Tian can’t give Hu Yu Ying the happiness she deserves.”
“A-Level University is one of the most renowned academies in the country. If Hu Yu Ying managed to get in, there’s already an invisible chasm between them.”
“It might not seem much now, but as time passes, and as education differences show their claws, when Hu Yu Ying sees the wider world, that gap will only grow.”
“After all, the companies recruiting at A-Level are world famous. Hu Yu Ying’s starting point was already higher the moment she stepped into A-Level. Girl power, boy’s weakness—you get the point. I already know they’ll just keep fighting.”
“Given that, it’s better to make Long Ao Tian see clearly that he’s not her match. If he truly cares for Hu Yu Ying, he’ll step back…”
Ye Liang Chen understood what Shao Hua meant. He continued, “If he doesn’t step aside, we can stand on the moral high ground and criticize him?”
Xue Shao Hua flicked his hair back confidently, curling his lips into a smug smile: “Exactly.”
“Because right now, Long Ao Tian is just a burden, while Hu Yu Ying deserves someone better—someone like me.”
Ye Liang Chen couldn’t help but glance at Xue Shao Hua a bit more. Whoa, he was really getting impressive.
Seeing the look of approval in Ye Liang Chen’s eyes, Shao Hua’s confident smile widened.
It was just a moment of inspiration. He was good enough—if Hu Yu Ying ended up with him, she’d definitely be happy.
That alone was more than what Long Ao Tian could offer.
If Hu Yu Ying had the chance to choose someone better, what right did Long Ao Tian have to stop her?
“But before that, I still want to teach him a lesson—how dare he try to meddle with what’s mine I really can’t take it anymore.”
Looking at the unwavering determination in Shao Hua’s eyes, and recalling the humiliation he’d suffered from Long Ao Tian, Ye Liang Chen thought: After all, Long Ao Tian is just one person. Two fists can’t fight four hands…
“Can you do it?” Shao Hua asked straight-up, knitting his brows.
Ye Liang Chen took a deep breath, a slight smirk curling his lips: “Well, then I guess I’ll d*e with the gentleman!”
Deciding firmly, the two of them didn’t hesitate. They directly headed toward the direction Long Ao Tian was leaving.
Ye Liang Chen clenched his fists tightly. He’d been wanting to punch Long Ao Tian for a long time.
This time, even if he had to blow his wild side in front of Hu Yu Ying, Long Ao Tian would get his comeuppance!
They chased down the street—holiday crowds were way too many; they couldn’t find him or Hu Yu Ying in that flood of people.
“d*mn it, that kid’s fast.” Shao Hua panted, tossing his hair. “But I’m just not willing to accept it!”
With the soul of a 28-year-old, Ye Liang Chen had plenty of ideas. He thought for a moment, then smirked sideways: “Don’t worry, I have a plan.”
“What plan?” Shao Hua asked anxiously. Fired up from breakfast, he was riding a high, ready to blow at the top of his lungs—he just wanted to release it.
Ye Liang Chen nodded: “Remember that courtyard alley last time?”
Seeing Shao Hua look a bit enlightened, Ye Liang Chen chuckled softly: “Yeah, he can run, but he can’t hide forever.”
“Or maybe you’re the one with a plan.” Shao Hua stretched his neck. “Daring to steal my girl, huh? I’ll make him pay the price!”
Hearing that, Ye Liang Chen frowned lightly. He was already unhappy with Shao Hua; he hadn’t given up on Hu Yu Ying yet.
Sure, she was now with Long Ao Tian, but she was once his treasure girl. Before he even got her, Shao Hua was already eyeing her. Not feeling great about that.
Plus, their initial agreement was just for her to stay with him for one night. Now, he wanted more than that…
He took a deep breath, glancing at Shao Hua from the corner of his eye. Once he got what he wanted, he could give up.
But now was not the time to turn hostile.
Thinking this through, Ye Liang Chen suppresses his irritation, and the two take the subway to Long Ao Tian’s rented place.
Time passes.
Ye Liang Chen and Shao Hua had been crouching in a small alley for ages.
Raising his head, he looked at the sky—getting darker.
“d*mn it, why isn’t he back yet?”
Neither Shao Hua nor Ye Liang Chen could hold their patience much longer from this long wait.
If it weren’t for the chance to give Long Ao Tian a good beating, they wouldn’t be standing here wasting time.
Suddenly, they hear footsteps, along with familiar voices. Crouching, they hide behind the corner.
“Long-ge, this cookie is so tasty, you should try it too.”
“Long-ge, don’t move! I’ll feed you…”
Though they couldn’t see the scene, Hu Yu Ying’s sparkling laugh made their minds picture Long Ao Tian’s sleazy grin perfectly.
“Shameless, having hands but still needing Hu Yu Ying to feed him, so gross!”
“Not so fast. Hu Yu Ying’s here now. If we make a move, we’ll just leave a bad impression on her.”
Seeing Shao Hua grinding his teeth, Ye Liang Chen whispered harshly: “When Long Ao Tian drops Hu Yu Ying back at school and he’s all alone, that’s our shot at revenge.”
With a ruthful smile, Ye Liang Chen added: “Hope you don’t scream too loudly—when I hit him, I’ll hit hard!”
【Oh! Hope everyone’s uploading power, because I haven’t kicked anyone’s b*tt with my sharp-toed shoes in a while. Oh, forgive me, Lord—I’m not a b*tt-kicking maniac!】
