"Since you won't cut open any stones, there's no point in you staying. Please leave." Tang Bingyun directly gave Chu Bai the order to leave.
Wang Haoran and Chu Bai were both students at Shui Ze High School, yet the Old Principal was not treating them equally and was instead favoring Chu Bai.
Tang Bingyun, who had been very friendly toward Wang Haoran, naturally could not stand to watch it.
No matter how she looked at Chu Bai, he seemed like nothing more than a hooligan, without the slightest appearance of a student.
She truly felt that the Principal was getting senile. How could he think so highly of someone like this?
Still, dissatisfied as she was, Tang Bingyun continued to respect the Principal and did not show him any displeasure.
But Chu Bai was another matter.
This was her territory. If she did not like him, she could simply make him leave.
"Beauty, a guest is a guest. Isn't this a bit much?" Chu Bai spread his hands.
"It seems you still don't know who I am. I think I need to explain it to you. Listen carefully: I am a board member of your Shui Ze Private High School."
Upon hearing that, Chu Bai was instantly dumbfounded.
This icy beauty actually outranked even the Old Principal! "See him out." Tang Bingyun could not be bothered to waste words and directly instructed the Female Assistant.
Her attitude clearly showed just how much she detested Chu Bai.
Wang Haoran was naturally delighted to see it.
With this, Chu Bai should have no further connection with Tang Bingyun, right? But just as Chu Bai had that thought, shouts suddenly rang out from inside and outside the tent.
"Stop!"
"Don't run!"
The sudden commotion startled everyone in the tent.
Before they could react in any other way, a panicked, skinny man rushed into the tent.
Several security guards chasing after him followed close behind.
Seeing that there was no way out inside the tent and that the entrance was blocked by security guards, the skinny man desperately grabbed Tang Bingyun, who was closest to him.
"Ah!" Tang Bingyun's face drained of color.
"Don't come any closer!" the man shouted at the security guards.
"Let go of President Tang! You can't escape!" the security guards warned as they slowly closed in on him.
"Don't push me!" The skinny man pulled a gun from his person and pointed it at Tang Bingyun's head.
The security guards were startled and instinctively retreated several steps.
They had never expected this guy to be carrying something like that.
Wang Haoran was startled as well.
He had originally intended to step forward and teach this little thief a lesson with his Wing Chun.
But now, it seemed better to forget it.
No matter how skilled he was, he could not withstand one shot from that thing.
But Qingling City was managed so strictly. Where had this guy gotten a gun?!
Wang Haoran was puzzled, so he focused his gaze and immediately spotted the trick.
Fuck, it was a toy gun. A setup, a setup—fucking another setup! Wang Haoran was speechless.
Tang Bingyun's attitude toward Chu Bai had already been extremely bad.
Yet Chu Bai still had a chance to turn things around.
He could tell that the toy gun was fake, and Chu Bai definitely could too.
With Chu Bai's Combat Power, wouldn't dealing with a skinny man be effortless? Hero Saves Beauty, then win Tang Bingyun's favor.
What a setup. "If you know what's good for you, let this beauty go!"
Just as these thoughts ran through Wang Haoran's mind, Chu Bai's voice sounded beside him.
Wang Haoran looked toward the voice and saw Chu Bai advancing on the skinny man.
"Don't act rashly! You'll get President Tang killed!" several security guards hurriedly tried to stop him.
"I know what I'm doing. Don't worry." Chu Bai's voice was calm and steady.
"Don't come any closer! If you come any closer, I'll shoot you dead!" The skinny man threatened him with the toy gun.
"Shoot me dead? Go ahead and try." Chu Bai was utterly fearless.
"Y-you..." The skinny man began to panic, suspicion filling his face.
Was this guy not afraid of death? Or had he realized that what I was holding was a toy?
No, no, that was impossible.
It was impossible to tell it was fake just by looking at it. In that case, this kid in front of me really wasn't afraid of death.
"Stop! If you take one more step forward, I'll shoot this woman dead!" The skinny man changed tactics and pointed the gun at Tang Bingyun's head.
"Don't do anything reckless. If... if you want money, I... I can give it to you." Tang Bingyun had never encountered a scene like this before. She was so frightened that she stammered, her face as pale as paper.
"Tell this kid not to come closer!" The skinny man felt somewhat guilty and began ordering Tang Bingyun around.
"Chu... Chu Bai, stay where you are," Tang Bingyun said in a trembling voice.
"Don't be afraid. I'll definitely save you." Chu Bai continued edging forward.
For the sake of making his Hero Saves Beauty act more effective, Chu Bai did not expose the fact that the skinny man was holding a fake. He wanted to portray himself as a brave and fearless man.
The skinny man dragged Tang Bingyun backward step by step until his back struck the edge of the tent. There was nowhere left to retreat.
"If you know what's good for you, let her go," Chu Bai continued to press him.
"Kid, are you really not afraid of death?" The skinny man's face twitched.
"My life is worthless. If I die, I die. If you're interested, go ahead and shoot me dead. Shoot here." Chu Bai pointed at his heart.
The skinny man practically wanted to curse out loud, while his mental defenses gradually began to collapse.
What he held was a toy. It could not hurt anyone at all.
And there was a fearless bastard right in front of him. He could not even escape.
The skinny man immediately began to consider surrendering.
But right then.
"Chu Bai, it doesn't matter if you want to die, but don't drag others down with you!" Wang Haoran hurriedly stepped forward and said to the security guards:
"What are you idiots standing around for? Can't you see this guy is deliberately getting revenge and wants to get your President Tang killed? Hurry up and restrain him!"
The security guards were immediately awakened by his words and surrounded Chu Bai.
Although Chu Bai's Combat Power was not weak, the security guards were well-trained. Working together, they successfully restrained him.
"Wang Haoran, I was about to bring the situation under control! Why did you come out and cause trouble?!" Chu Bai gritted his teeth.
Wang Haoran picked up a piece of torn cloth that had originally been used to wrap a raw stone, then walked over to Chu Bai.
"Is there something wrong with your brain? Bring the situation under control? Can't you see what that guy is holding?"
After saying that, Wang Haoran did not wait for Chu Bai to babble. He rolled the torn cloth into a ball and stuffed it into Chu Bai's mouth.
"Mmph, what he's holding... fake... mmph." Chu Bai wanted to say that the skinny man's gun was a toy, but with his mouth stuffed, he could only make muffled sounds.
No one else could understand what he was saying.
