Encounter

In the distance, a group of seven or eight boys walked slowly towards them.

Two of them chatted and laughed the whole way.

"Qin Fengjie, you should thank me. Today, Zhuo Jing asked me to film her campus dating show. When I found out, it turned out to be Shi Xuan from the Arts and Physical Education Department. Isn't that the girl you're pursuing? I quickly brushed her off." Ouyang Kai smiled as he looked at the handsome young man in front of him.

The man in front of me is Qin Fengjie from the Beijing Sport University Martial Arts College. He is a well-known figure on campus, not only admired by female fans but also adored by male students. His personal charm is so strong that even the campus heartthrob has to admit defeat.

"Thanks, brother," Qin Fengjie said with a smile. "We're drinking until we drop tonight!"

"Alright, let's drink until we drop! Oh, and I wish you all the best in winning the heart of your beauty soon," Ouyang Kai said with a smile.

"It'll be soon," Qin Fengjie said. "Shi Xuan is different from those other girls; she's very traditional. I cherish her very much and I'm pursuing her with all my heart. It doesn't matter if it's faster or slower."

A group of boys nearby laughed and teased him upon hearing this.

"That's my sister-in-law."

"Sure, keep it up! With Brother Jie in charge, there's no need for him to chase girls; he'd be the one chasing them!"

"Huh? Sister-in-law..."

A surprised voice suddenly came from the crowd.

"Hmm?" Qin Fengjie looked over. "What's going on?"

The boy in the crowd pointed into the distance, stammering for a moment, unsure of what to say.

Everyone looked over.

In the distance, in front of the nightclub, Shi Xuan, the very traditional girl Qin Fengjie had described and who was to become their sister-in -Shi Xuan law, was flirting and kissing a man in his arms, their lips even sticking out in their mouths.

Qin Fengjie stood frozen in place, his fists clenched so tightly they cracked, his eyes blazing with fury.

"Grass!"

Several boys nearby quickly grabbed him.

"Calm down, Brother Jie!"

"Stay calm!"

"How can I stay calm? Didn't you see Shi Xuan struggling? I have to save her!" Qin Fengjie suddenly raised his arm.

"Struggling?" The group exchanged bewildered glances, then looked into the distance.

Is this... is this what you call a struggle?

"Let go!" Qin Fengjie suddenly broke free of his hands.

He was, after all, from a martial arts academy, and his fighting skills were very high. At this moment, when he was going all out, the other boys naturally couldn't suppress him.

Then, everyone just watched as Qin Fengjie strode forward.

"What to do?"

"Should we stop them?"

"He didn't know his own strength; wouldn't it be bad if something serious happened?"

Everyone started talking at once.

"Stop talking nonsense, let's go." Ouyang Kai frowned and said directly.

Everyone thought about it and agreed; they decided to go and see how things went first.

··

In front of the nightclub, Zhang Yang held Shi Xuan in his arms, enjoying her sweet scent. His hands, however, were not quite at ease, sliding down from her waist.

He wasn't drunk.

But after drinking at noon and now another round of drinking tonight, I'm still feeling a little tipsy.

"It's a bit too fast." Shi Xuan's cheeks were flushed, and her breathing was clearly uneven. "I'm quite conflicted. On one hand, rationally I feel that this is wrong, but on the other hand, I vaguely feel that if I push you away now, there probably won't be any future for us."

She was actually right.

Zhang Yang's actions are purely on a whim; it's just a passing fancy.

His unwavering success with women had made him so accustomed to being rejected that he hadn't experienced rejection in a long time. Therefore, his interactions with women were now characterized by directness and simplicity.

If he were pushed away now, he might lose interest and feel bored.

As for the scenario where someone becomes interested and pursues you relentlessly after being rejected, that's definitely not going to happen with him.

"So you didn't push me away?" Zhang Yang smiled and looked down, pressing her against the wall.

Nightclubs are places of revelry and debauchery, and it's not uncommon to see men and women coming and going, pulling and tugging at each other.

"Not going home tonight? Coming to my place?"

"Tonight?" Shi Xuan looked up at Zhang Yang. "Wouldn't that be too casual of me?"

"It's settled then," Zhang Yang said again.

"You... I didn't agree to that." Shi Xuan said with a light scolding.

Zhang Yang smiled slightly, understanding the situation.

He wrapped his arms around Shi Xuan's slender waist, about to say something, when he noticed that Shi Xuan's expression suddenly changed, becoming surprised, unexpected, and then... frightened?

"Zhang Yang, watch out!" Shi Xuan suddenly shoved Zhang Yang.

Suddenly, a gust of wind from a punch passed by my ear.

Zhang Yang turned around and saw an exceptionally tall and burly boy staring at him with fiery eyes.

"Are you alright, Zhang Yang?" Shi Xuan quickly came up and asked with concern.

"It's nothing," Zhang Yang shook his head.

"Qin Fengjie, what do you mean? What are you doing?!" Shi Xuan stood gently in front of Zhang Yang, her arms slightly outstretched to block him. "Are you crazy?!"

"You!" Qin Fengjie's expression shifted several times. "You're protecting her?"

Behind him, a group of classmates quickly arrived and stood behind Qin Fengjie.

"Feng Jie, don't be silly, can't you see?" Ouyang Kai stepped forward and looked at the guy being protected by Shi Xuan behind him.

Even though he considered himself the school's heartthrob and was always proud of his looks, he had to admit that the boy in front of him was so handsome that even he was jealous.

Damn it...

Good looks really do matter! There's always someone better.

He had no trouble winning over girls at school with his good looks, but today he realized what it truly meant to be a amateur in front of an expert.

He's so handsome that even Shi Xuan from the Department of Physical Education and Arts fell for him.

"What a pity." He glanced at Qin Fengjie, who was furious today, and knew things were going badly.

Everyone knows that when Qin Fengjie is in a rage, no one can stop him, and he's incredibly ruthless.

Shi Xuan's action of blocking their way only added fuel to the fire.

"Xuanxuan, I'll ask you one more time, do you really have to protect him?" Qin Fengjie ignored everyone else's words, his eyes fixed on Shi Xuan.

"Get out of here! Are you out of your mind?!" Shi Xuan snapped.

Seeing the situation, Zhang Yang immediately understood the reason. "Is this your boyfriend?"

"No!" Shi Xuan shook her head decisively, then added after a moment's thought, "He's pursuing me, but I've never agreed. We have absolutely no relationship."

In the distance, Qin Fengjie felt a pang of pain in his heart as he listened to these heartless words.

So, all my efforts over the years have turned out like this? Completely worthless? Nothing at all?

Shi Xuan may be ruthless, but at this moment, looking at the boy standing behind Shi Xuan, that strikingly handsome boy, he was even more hated.

"It must be his sweet talk!" Qin Fengjie gritted his teeth.

"Are you even a man? Hiding behind a girl like that?!"

Zhang Yang found it amusing, "This... is this some kind of reverse psychology?"

He stepped forward with a smile, and, under the almost fiery gaze of the person in front of him, put his arm around Shi Xuan's small waist. "Fine, I've stepped forward. What do you want to say?"

"Let me be blunt with you, Shi Xuan is the girl I've got my eye on!" Qin Fengjie said, staring at the person in front of him.

"Well, you might not know, but I just met her tonight," Zhang Yang continued with great interest.

"We just met last night..." Qin Fengjie's lips trembled. "Do you dare to come over and talk to me?"

"No, aren't you childish? There are nine of you. Let me talk to you over there." Zhang Yang said with a laugh. "Want to fight, or gang up on me? You think I'll just go because you tell me to?"

"Coward!" Qin Fengjie looked at the crowd around him and said through gritted teeth.

He certainly couldn't do anything in front of everyone.

"Dude, you might have misunderstood. We would never do anything like ganging up on you. We just want to have a chat. Don't worry, we definitely won't interfere," Ouyang Kai said, his eyes flashing.

"I'm not going." Zhang Yang shook his head.

A wise man does not stand under a dangerous wall, well, even though his martial arts skills are already ridiculously high.

"Let's go, Shi Xuan."

He pulled Shi Xuan, trying to leave.

"Wait!" Qin Fengjie stepped forward and suddenly blocked their way.

Ouyang Kai and a few classmates exchanged glances, then stepped forward to surround Zhang Yang, separating him from Shi Xuan.

"Shi Xuan, don't get involved in men's business. Don't worry, we'll keep an eye on things, and things definitely won't go too far," Ouyang Kai said with a smile to Shi Xuan. "I really just want to talk to him."

"Get out of the way!" Shi Xuan cried out, trying to pull the people away.

However, several boys blocked her way.

"Fine, do you really have to talk?" Zhang Yang felt a little speechless, then looked at the boy in front of him who was staring at him without moving.

"What do you think?" Qin Fengjie said coldly.

"Okay, let's go talk then. Let's go up ahead, there are fewer people there," Zhang Yang said after thinking for a moment.

"Zhang Yang, you really can't go with them..." Shi Xuan paced anxiously, "That Qin Fengjie, he's a madman, he'll do something..."

"It's nothing, it's nothing." Zhang Yang waved his hand and left nonchalantly. "You wait here for me for a while."

Shi Xuan stood there, stomped her foot, and without thinking, turned around and ran into the nightclub.

··

The nightclub was located in a deserted corner, completely different from the surrounding noise.

Moreover, no cameras can be seen.

Zhang Yang looked around as he walked, and seemed quite satisfied.

A short while later, a large group of boys watched Zhang Yang and Qin Fengjie go into a corner.

They stood aside with their arms crossed, clearly not intending to get involved.

Because Qin Fengjie is someone who has achieved excellent results in the National College Student Wushu Routine Competition; he is a truly super-skilled fighter, a professional.

How could an ordinary person be a match for him?

The purpose of them standing by and watching was to assess the situation later, and if things went wrong, to separate the two and prevent a major incident.

"You want to talk to me? What do you want to talk about? Go ahead." Zhang Yang turned around and looked at the burly boy in front of him with fiery eyes.

"What are you talking about? What do you think we're talking about?" Qin Fengjie gritted his teeth and sneered, "Keep being arrogant. Did you think you were so cool just now? Huh? Hugging the girl I had my eye on right in front of me?"

He stepped forward, pressing closer with each step.

"No, could we not fight?" Zhang Yang sighed softly, shook his head, and took two steps back.

"What do you think?" Qin Fengjie laughed. "Should we try to be polite first and then resort to force, or should we just talk it out without resorting to violence?"

Zhang Yang had nowhere to retreat; he was cornered.

"Let me tell you, I've always believed in quick revenge, and might makes right! If you've annoyed me, I'll beat you up to vent my anger." Qin Fengjie twisted his neck, threw a punch, and his expression was extremely ferocious!

The people nearby glanced over slightly.

Qin Fengjie is still the same as ever; he'll resort to violence at the slightest provocation. Who wouldn't be intimidated by that?

However, the sound they expected did not appear.

An eerie silence seemed to fall over the scene.

Crunch, crunch.

Qin Fengjie remained in the punching stance, but his fist stopped in mid-air, unable to make any further progress, before it could even touch the person.

"You!"

His expression was stiff as he slowly raised his head to look at the boy in front of him.

"I already asked you, could you not use your fist? You just don't know what's good for you." Zhang Yang looked down at his palm and the fist he was clenching, and then slowly exerted force.

Qin Fengjie froze, his eyes bulging.

Because an unimaginable force instantly compressed his fist, as if it were a machine, trying to completely crush it.

"Although you don't want to play it safe with me, I'm a man who always follows the rules." Zhang Yang effortlessly lifted Qin Fengjie's fist.

Qin Fengjie's arm seemed to be out of his control, and was pulled up.

Even though he tried his best to fight back, he had no chance to retaliate.

To those around them, it was a strange phenomenon: Qin Fengjie was the one who struck first, but now he seemed like a puppet, his fists being led by the other party.

Moreover, he looked to be in quite a bit of pain.

"You... you let go!" In the excruciating pain, Qin Fengjie instinctively reached out to swing his other hand.

"Right?" Zhang Yang caught the other hand again. "Still not giving up?"

Bang!

A figure staggered backward, crashing heavily to the side.

A large footprint appeared on Qin Fengjie's chest, and he was kicked a long way by Zhang Yang.

This was even with Zhang Yang using only a tiny bit of his strength.

Qin Fengjie clutched his chest, his eyes blank, seemingly unaware of his current situation.

But the next second, a figure was already standing in front of him, looking down at him.

"This is the first time you've attacked me without any sportsmanship." Zhang Yang slapped him across the face.

Qin Fengjie was slapped so hard that he staggered to the ground, sending dust flying.

"This is the second time you've spoken rudely." Zhang Yang bent down, grabbed his hair, and slapped him again on the other side.

In the blink of an eye, Qin Fengjie's cheeks were swollen symmetrically on both sides.

Zhang Yang grabbed Qin Fengjie by the collar again, lifted him up with one arm, and said, "The girl you've got your eye on is yours. Did she say yes? You're pretty domineering, but your domineering is a bit stupid."

With a casual toss, the immense and sustained force sent Qin Fengjie flying backwards as if hit by a car.

This scene immediately stunned everyone present.

"Holy crap!"

"No, I didn't see that wrong, did I!"

Everyone stared in disbelief at the scene before them.

Qin Fengjie was treated like a dog and abused to the point where he couldn't even fight back? So, who should they help now?

"No, what are you all standing there for? There are eight or nine of you, don't you know to go help?" Ouyang Kai roared as he turned around, his eyes blazing with fury.

Everyone realized what was happening.

That's true, there are eight or nine of them, why would they be afraid of one person? If they said they wouldn't go, wouldn't they be laughed at?
