Master Bao, What the Hell Is That?
At that moment, the forum really had been turned upside down.
Wu Hao and Zhao Feifei posted the surveillance video Ji Chuxing had given them.
The video showed everything clearly.
Two boys from the Set Sail Class had run into people from a technical school in the alley. At first, the two sides had left each other alone, but some people were born with foul mouths. The two boys had taken the initiative to hurl insults at the technical school students.
First, they mocked them as good-for-nothing trash who had learned nothing.
Then they cursed their parents and eighteen generations of their ancestors.
With those arrogant voices and contemptuous looks, who with any temper at all could have put up with it?
It would have been hard to justify it if the other side hadn't beaten those two boys with flowers spilling from their mouths until their own mothers couldn't recognize them.
Nobody had expected the truth to turn out like this. The comments originally aimed at Ji Chuxing had all turned on the two who had started the trouble.
In the video, the other side had even made a threat: from now on, whenever they saw someone from Nanyi, they would beat them up.
"They brought this trouble on themselves. What a joke. Why curse Ji Chuxing?"
"I took screenshots of everyone in the comments who said they'd livestream themselves eating shit. Time to keep your promises."
"Ji Chuxing was pretty unlucky too."
"Even if it wasn't because of Ji Chuxing, the photos of her in the post were real. She's in league with thugs from outside school. If it wasn't because of her this time, sooner or later it'll be because of her next time."
"Is the person above sick in the head? Why do you have to keep bringing up Ji Chuxing?"
Ji Chuxing didn't have a phone, and of course she wouldn't take those keyboard warriors seriously anyway. She had plenty to do.
Zhao Feifei and Wu Hao, on the other hand, paid more attention to the matter and went straight to challenge people over it.
He hadn't forgotten about the livestreamed shit-eating.
Ji Chuxing went straight out.
She needed to buy some things for the task she had accepted that noon.
They probably wouldn't be easy to find on the regular market, so she decided to try her luck at the underground casino that night.
The Resource Network's account upgrade system was such a nuisance. To upgrade a beginner account to an intermediate one, she had to complete five thousand beginner tasks and accumulate a certain number of points.
At her rate of two a minute, she would need more than forty hours.
She chewed on a milk tablet, so irritated that the little tuft of hair on her head stood up again.
It was the same alley as that morning, and there were still few people walking through it.
Ji Chuxing felt as though something was blocking her view. When she looked up, she saw seven or eight men dressed like thugs standing in her way.
She gripped the straps of her black backpack with both hands, looking well-behaved. After crunching up the last little piece of her milk tablet, she reminded them expressionlessly, "You're blocking the way."
"Heh, you've got some nerve. Was it you who beat up Zheng Kuan?"
The men all had sticks in their hands.
Ji Chuxing's expression didn't change. "It was me. So what?"
Her expression was cool and indifferent, but that one casual glance sent an endless chill rising in their hearts.
"Big talk. Do you know who Zheng Kuan is? He's Master Bao's godson. Go ask around. Who on the whole of South Street dares act arrogant in front of Master Bao?"
Ji Chuxing said, "Master Bao, what the hell is that? Don't know, never heard of him."
As soon as she said that, the atmosphere changed. The men looked at her first in disbelief, then in anger.
To dare say something like that, it seemed she wasn't planning to walk out of this alley today!
The alley opened onto a main street, where Wen Xinyue and Mo Xue'er were walking past.
Mo Xue'er was still angry about what had happened on the forum at noon.
She had added a comment too, saying that if the incident had nothing to do with Ji Chuxing, she would livestream herself eating shit. As it turned out, the incident really had nothing to do with Ji Chuxing. Although she had posted anonymously and nobody knew what she had said, she knew!
She said angrily, "Ji Chuxing got lucky this time. She won't be so lucky next time. Hey, Xinyue, what do you think her relationship with those thugs actually is? Her private life is such a mess. She's disgusting."
Wen Xinyue frowned, her tone less than pleasant. "I don't know. Stop talking about this."
She really hated it when other people brought up Ji Chuxing in front of her.
She had just finished speaking when Mo Xue'er tugged at her. "Look!"
Wen Xinyue stopped and looked into the alley. When she saw Ji Chuxing surrounded by several ill-intentioned people, her expression changed drastically.
Mo Xue'er grabbed her. "She's gotten into trouble again. Serves her right. She must have gone flirting around and provoked someone again."
Mo Xue'er had spoken quietly, but Ji Chuxing happened to look over just then, and she found herself unexpectedly meeting the girl's calm gaze.
Wen Xinyue and Mo Xue'er were both startled for a moment. Almost instinctively, they hurried away from the entrance to the alley without thinking.
Only after they had taken a few steps did Mo Xue'er come to her senses.
"What the hell? What was I scared of just now?"
"Xinyue, should we..."
"Young miss." The Wen Family's driver was already waiting outside. Seeing him, she answered.
Wen Xinyue said to Mo Xue'er, "Don't meddle in other people's affairs and bring trouble on yourself. Call the police."
She spoke as though she didn't know the person being surrounded just now was Ji Chuxing. Turning her head, she said, "Uncle, let's go. Mom's waiting for me at home for dinner."
Mo Xue'er, meanwhile, gave a start. She stood there for quite a while, watching Wen Xinyue's car drive away.
She wanted to go back and take some video, but when she remembered how vicious those men had looked, she shuddered and didn't go back. Nor did she mention the matter to anyone.
Call the police?
Hmph, why would she call the police? She hadn't seen anything just now. Who would go to a deserted place like that?
Ji Chuxing had merely glanced indifferently toward the entrance of the alley on instinct. The men seemed a little harder to deal with than Zheng Kuan that morning, but it would only take her another two minutes.
She was about to put down her backpack when a carefree laugh suddenly came from the entrance. "What, you're getting into a fight without Young Master Lu? What kind of cowards pick on a girl, you worthless bastards!"
It was Lu Xing.
Ji Chuxing said, "..."
He was alone, yet Brother Xing insisted on putting on an air that everyone there was a good-for-nothing he could knock down with one finger.
His words completely ignited the men's fury.
The man closest to him swung a stick at him.
Master Xing, who had just been acting so impressive, instinctively raised a hand to block it, but didn't forget to shout at Ji Chuxing, "Run! Are you stupid?!"
Although Young Master Lu knew how to fight, he got hurt every time he fought Zheng Kuan. The two were really six of one and half a dozen of the other, and neither was a match for these men.
Besides, Master Xing really wasn't all that capable.
Ji Chuxing irritably put down her backpack. After he blocked one blow and took another across the back, she kicked at one of the men, pulling him away.
At the same time, she swiftly grabbed Lu Xing and flung him against the wall. As she tossed her backpack into his arms, she raised her leg and kicked.
The man with the stick, who had just punched Lu Xing in the arm, was sent flying three meters by her kick.
Her movements were clean and crisp, gallant and dashing.
Her long hair flew high, as though she had some powerful aura about her.
"Holy shit!" Young Master Lu was both stunned and excited.
This... with skills like these, what the hell was he doing playing the hero saving the beauty to win back his dignity?!
He'd saved nothing at all!
His dignity had been trampled into the ground.
Lu Xing was utterly stunned, too shocked even to care about the pain in his shoulder.
Good grief!
With skills like hers, he-he, he, he was nothing but trash!
He couldn't deny it even if he wanted to!
Ji Chuxing was too fast. She struck quickly and ruthlessly, every blow hitting a vital point. Bang, bang, bang-seven or eight people soon lay on the ground.
Only Ji Chuxing was standing.
And Young Master Lu was crouching by the wall.
Ji Chuxing turned back and calmly reached out, pulling her backpack from Lu Xing's arms. "Aren't you leaving?"
She had just finished speaking when Lu Xing shouted, "Look out!"
In an instant, he had pulled Ji Chuxing aside and blocked the steel bar swinging at her from behind.
Ji Chuxing reacted instantly. "Idiot!"
She kicked the man, and he fell back down, completely unconscious and unable to get up again.
But the steel bar had split open a gash on Lu Xing's arm.
A group of people came rushing to the entrance of the alley. "Brother Xing! God Ji! Are you all right?!"
Lu Xing grimaced in pain but still tried to act cool. "I'm fine. It's just a little injury. When Young Master fights, it's an everyday occurrence."
Ji Chuxing said coldly, "Shut up!"
Lu Xing immediately shut up.
"Take him to the nearest hospital!"
The others had no time to worry about anything else. Seeing the blood on Lu Xing's arm, they panicked and scrambled about. One carried him on his back while another held up his legs, and they ran out of the alley.
Young Master Lu's dignity was completely gone.
