"Holy shit! What is that?!"

"My God! Gao Zisheng is into that kind of stuff?"

"No wonder he walks so strangely. So that's why..."

Below the stage, the students erupted.

Many covered their eyes, utterly disgusted.

"This..."

Gao Zisheng froze, unable to believe his eyes.

The humiliation was unlike anything he had ever felt. He wanted to find a hole and bury himself in it.

"No... Impossible!"

He came to his senses and lunged for the computer, frantically trying to stop the video.

But no matter how many times he pressed the exit key, the image stayed put.

Tang Xian'er had already tampered with the video file and planted a virus. Once opened, it could not be closed, and it automatically played in full screen.

"Turn it off! Turn it off now!"

Gao Zisheng broke out in a sweat and tried to pull out the USB Drive, but his fingers shook so badly that he could not get it loose.

The reporters were stunned too.

They had come to capture a scandal involving Yue Xiaofei. Instead, they had caught explosive footage of Gao Zisheng!

This story was far more sensational than the one they had expected!

They hurriedly swung their cameras toward the big screen and filmed furiously, afraid to miss a single detail.

"Gao Zisheng, is this the evidence you were talking about?"

Yue Xiaofei's mocking voice rang out. "You said I swindled people out of money and seduced women, but the man in that video is clearly you!"

"And didn't you say you had a congenital heart condition?"

"From where I'm standing, you look fit enough to take on ten at once."

"Released from prison for medical treatment? Looks more like you got away with everything!"

Gao Zisheng had no answer.

He saw the contempt in the crowd's eyes and heard his classmates talking and laughing. It felt as though every shred of his pride and dignity had been ground to dust.

"It was you! You did this!"

Gao Zisheng raised his head and glared at Yue Xiaofei with bloodshot eyes. "You little bastard! I'm not done with you!"

He charged at Yue Xiaofei like a madman, ready to throw a punch.

Smack!

But Yue Xiaofei was ready. One hard slap sent him sprawling.

Two security guards rushed in and pinned Gao Zisheng down.

"Let me go! I'll kill him!"

Gao Zisheng struggled desperately, teeth clenched and eyes red.

Yue Xiaofei looked down at him as if he were a clown.

This was why he had joined forces with Tang Xian'er and sent her to do one thing—

Bribe the bodyguards at Black Tortoise Manor!

Get the video!

All for this moment!

Turn the tables!

And land the finishing blow!

Yue Xiaofei picked up the microphone and spoke in a deep voice:

"Fellow students, you all saw that, didn't you?"

"Gao Zisheng held a grudge against me and tried to ruin me with false accusations. Instead, his scheme blew up in his face!"

"My entire family has served with honor. I would never do anything so filthy, and I will not let scum like him smear my name!"

For a few seconds, the hall was silent. Then thunderous applause broke out.

"Yue Xiaofei's right! Gao Zisheng is a bastard!"

"We support Yue Xiaofei! Bring down that scumbag!"

"That was so satisfying! He had it coming!"

Phew...

Principal Xiao breathed a sigh of relief too. He hurried onto the stage, picked up the microphone, and said, "Students, members of the press, what happened just now was a farce. Please don't dwell on it."

"Now, let's continue with the graduation ceremony..."

But who could pay attention after that?

Several security guards soon moved to escort Gao Zisheng away.

He had wanted to take brutal revenge on Yue Xiaofei. Instead, he had become a laughingstock and exposed himself to everyone...

Still, he refused to accept defeat. Eyes red, he glared at Yue Xiaofei through clenched teeth.

"Yue Xiaofei, you piece of trash!"

"I haven't lost yet!"

"Give me a month at most, and I'll have you on your knees licking my shoes!"

Yue Xiaofei paid no attention to his empty threats.

He was nothing but a stray dog barking by the roadside!

Tang Xian'er sat in a corner.

As she watched the composed figure on the stage, she finally understood how wise her decision had been.

Yue Xiaofei was formidable!

He had played Gao Zisheng like a puppet!

And she believed he would keep his promise and help her break off her engagement to the Gao Family.

That evening, the video was uploaded online.

Although it had been censored, people quickly worked out—

The man going at it with seven or eight hulking men was none other than Gao Zisheng, the rich young master of Jiangcheng.

"Holy shit! Isn't that Young Master Gao? He's into some wild stuff!"

"My God, is this what rich people do? How can his body take it?"

"That's one unusual taste!"

The comments section exploded.

Someone even turned the footage into a meme remix that racked up millions of views.

Others edited Gao Zisheng's face onto a gorilla and called it "The Gao Family Young Master's Planet of the Happy Apes."

Black Tortoise Manor.

"You bastards! Shut up, all of you!"

When Gao Zisheng saw the vicious comments, he hurled his phone at the wall. The screen shattered instantly.

"Yue Xiaofei, this is all your fault! I'm not done with you!"

"I'll tear you apart and grind your bones to dust!"

Bang!

Gao Tianxiong suddenly pushed open the door and came in.

He wore a dark Zhongshan suit, his face black as thunder.

"Dad!"

Gao Zisheng rushed toward him as though salvation had arrived, ready to complain. "That bastard Yue Xiaofei set me up! He switched the videos and posted it online. I can't let this go!"

"Shut up!"

Gao Tianxiong slapped him across the face and roared, "I warned you not to provoke Yue Xiaofei, but you wouldn't listen!"

"Now all of Jiangcheng is laughing at the Gao Family!"

"Are you happy?"

Gao Zisheng held his cheek, his eyes full of hurt and anger.

"But he's walking all over us! Are we supposed to let him?"

"Dad, you have to get revenge for me!"

"Get Mom back, and my two older sisters too! They'll know how to deal with Yue Xiaofei!"

Gao Zisheng knew exactly what his family could do.

His mother, Jiang Bichij, was a well-connected society lady, and his two sisters wielded enormous influence too.

His eldest sister, Gao Yufeng, had married into a powerful Longdu family!

His second sister, Gao Yuyan, had married into a Modu financial dynasty!

If either of them stepped in, having Yue Xiaofei killed would take only a word.

"Your mother has gone to Longdu again. She told you to stop causing trouble!"

Gao Tianxiong's voice was cold.

"Dad, I'm not causing trouble. I'm doing this for the Gao Family!"

Gao Zisheng sprang to his feet and hurried on. "It's only been a few days, and look how many powerful people Yue Xiaofei has connected with!"

"If he keeps finding relatives, the consequences could be disastrous!"

"We're already mortal enemies, and he won't spare the Gao Family. Sooner or later, he'll come after our business!"

Gao Tianxiong frowned deeply.

He did not care about the feud between this son of his and Yue Xiaofei, but the Gao Family's business was his lifeblood.

It seemed Yue Xiaofei had to go!

If they couldn't beat him openly, they would do it in secret!

Once he was dead!

Surely Sha Zhenjiang wouldn't turn against the Gao Family over a dead man!

"You're right!"

Gao Tianxiong turned abruptly, as though he had made a decision. "If we can't get rid of the trouble, we'll get rid of the man causing it."

He called toward the door. "A Dao!"

Thud, thud, thud!

A scar-faced man walked in. A dragon tattoo curled over his shoulder, and a fierce, murderous aura surrounded him.

"Mr. Gao."

Brother Dao lowered his head slightly, his voice hoarse.

"Get rid of Yue Xiaofei!"

Gao Tianxiong spoke as casually as if he were discussing some trivial matter. "Handle it yourself. No mistakes!"

Gao Zisheng's eyes lit up.

He knew how capable Brother Dao was. His father's top enforcer had been a mercenary in his youth and had dozens of lives on his hands!

If Brother Dao went after Yue Xiaofei, he was finished!

"Brother Dao, don't kill the brat outright!"

Cruelty glinted in Gao Zisheng's eyes. "Bring him back to Black Tortoise Manor. I want to deal with him myself and show him what I can do!"

"Yes, young master."

Brother Dao nodded.

"One more thing. Tomorrow is the ribbon-cutting ceremony for Gao Group's skyscraper."

Gao Tianxiong added, "All of Jiangcheng will be watching the construction site. No one will notice. Tomorrow night is the perfect time to strike!"

"Understood."

Gao Tianxiong then left with Brother Dao.

Gao Zisheng grinned savagely, his face alight with excitement.

He could already picture Yue Xiaofei being dragged in and begging for mercy on his knees.

"Yue Xiaofei, tomorrow night will be the night you die!"

"I'll show you what happens when you cross Gao Zisheng!"
