Chapter 303: Adversity Reveals True Feelings

“AHHH!!!”

Huangmao Brother Long’s agonized scream echoed throughout the entire dormitory building!

Everyone was alerted by the sound!

Many people ran out of their dorm rooms!

“What’s with all the caterwauling upstairs so late at night?!!!!”

The loud voice of the dorm supervisor echoed up from his office downstairs!

Young Master B Wang Shouyi snapped back to his senses, his face a mask of shock as he stared at the scene before him.

“We’re screwed. This has gotten way out of hand!”

Young Master B Wang Shouyi muttered to himself.

But a moment later, his eyes sharpened with clarity!

Before Huangmao Brother Long could even react, while he was still moaning in agony!

Young Master B Wang Shouyi lunged forward and viciously stomped on Huangmao Brother Long’s other leg!

“SNAP…”

“AHHH!!!!”

“AHHH!!!!!”

Huangmao Brother Long let out a gut-wrenching scream!

He struggled to lift his head and look at Young Master B Wang Shouyi, his face a mask of utter disbelief!

“W…hy…?”

He painfully forced the single word from his throat.

“There’s no reason. I just don’t like the look of you.”

Young Master B Wang Shouyi said coolly, his face devoid of expression as he looked down at Huangmao Brother Long on the ground.

Huangmao Brother Long was speechless.

‘What the fuck kind of answer is that?!’

‘Did he think I wasn’t suffering enough, so he had to stomp on me again?!’

Meanwhile, Gu Yifan was looking at Young Master B Wang Shouyi with a complicated expression.

He knew exactly why Young Master B Wang Shouyi had done it.

It was, of course, to help him.

After all, the situation had escalated to the point where it was completely out of control.

Soon, the university administration and other influential figures would surely arrive.

By getting involved, Young Master B Wang Shouyi was actually trying to protect him.

After all, Young Master B Wang Shouyi’s family had military connections.

And from what Young Master B Wang Shouyi knew, Gu Yifan had no official backing whatsoever.

So he’d done it to shoulder some of the responsibility for Gu Yifan.

That way, when the authorities came to assign blame, Young Master B Wang Shouyi would have a reason for his family to intervene.

Or perhaps Young Master B Wang Shouyi planned to take all the blame upon himself.

That was the only possible explanation.

Just then, Peng Shaoqiang and He Dongdong, who were standing nearby, also snapped out of their stupor.

First, they had been shocked by Gu Yifan’s move, then they were left completely stunned by what Young Master B Wang Shouyi did.

The two of them had been frozen in place, completely dumbfounded and unsure of what to do.

Now that they’d recovered, they also understood the meaning behind Young Master B Wang Shouyi’s actions.

After all, how many idiots get into Jinling University?!

They exchanged a look and charged toward Gu Yifan and Young Master B Wang Shouyi.

From their expressions, it was obvious they intended to get a piece of Huangmao Brother Long on the ground!

Gu Yifan and Young Master B Wang Shouyi quickly pulled their feet back from Huangmao Brother Long and blocked the two.

Both Gu Yifan and Young Master B Wang Shouyi understood what they were trying to do—they wanted to share the responsibility for this incident.

But Gu Yifan knew that Peng Shaoqiang and He Dongdong came from ordinary families. Even if they had some connections, they wouldn’t be very powerful.

That was why he stopped them.

In truth, Gu Yifan hadn’t reacted in time earlier. Otherwise, he would never have let Young Master B Wang Shouyi get involved.

Now it was too late; what was done was done.

But he was determined not to let Peng Shaoqiang and He Dongdong get dragged into this.

This was too serious. Gu Yifan didn’t want to get them into trouble.

Young Master B Wang Shouyi was thinking along the same lines.

‘Peng Shaoqiang and He Dongdong’s families might be rich, but they have no official backing,’ he thought. ‘They absolutely cannot get involved in this!’

“Brother Fan! Young Master B!”

“Let me go!”

Peng Shaoqiang roared, his eyes red!

‘This whole thing started because of me!’

‘This whole mess is all my fault!’

‘And now they actually want me to stay out of it!’

‘I can’t do that!!!’

“Sao Man, calm down!!”

“Dongzi, you stop too!”

Gu Yifan roared, his expression turning icy.

“If you still consider me your brother!”

“Then you two will stay on the sidelines and not get involved in any of this!”

“This has blown up way too big for you two to get involved in!”

“I couldn’t stop Young Master B when he rushed in just now! But I absolutely will not allow either of you to take another step forward!”

“Now both of you, back the hell off!”

Gu Yifan roared at the two of them!

“Brother Fan!”

“But…”

Peng Shaoqiang and He Dongdong said in unison!

But before they could finish, Gu Yifan cut them off forcefully.

“No buts!!”

“If you trust me, then you two will back the hell off!”

“Take one more step, and we’re no longer brothers!!”

Gu Yifan shouted.

Peng Shaoqiang and He Dongdong refused to back down.

They stared fixedly into Gu Yifan’s eyes.

“BACK OFF!!!!”

“I SAID, BACK OFF!!!!”

Gu Yifan roared, his blood boiling.

“Sao Man, Dongzi, trust Brother Fan!”

“And trust me! I absolutely will not let anything happen to Brother Fan! I guarantee it!!”

Young Master B Wang Shouyi declared, his own eyes red as he spoke with absolute conviction.

The crowd of onlookers in the hallway grew larger and larger.

Just then, Li Shuang finally regained his senses.

The situation was now completely out of control.

‘It’s over!’

‘We’re screwed!!!’

He muttered to himself!

‘That’s right, Dad!’

He hurriedly pulled out his phone and called his father.

After all, he couldn’t escape his connection to this incident.

He was the one who started it.

He was the one who had called Huangmao Brother Long over!

With trembling hands, he unlocked his phone and dialed his father, Li Gang’s, number.

“Hey, Dad, something terrible has happened…”

He blurted out the moment the call connected.

His voice was filled with an uncontrollable tremor.

Meanwhile, Huangmao Brother Long had already passed out from the pain on the floor.

Peng Shaoqiang and He Dongdong had also calmed down.

They stood to the side, fists clenched so tightly that their nails dug into their palms, yet they felt nothing.

“Boss, I’m going to call my family to let them know what’s happening, give them a heads-up.”

Young Master B Wang Shouyi glanced at the other two before turning to Gu Yifan.

“Okay.”

Gu Yifan nodded, his face impassive.

Then, he also took out his own phone and dialed Vice-Principal Sun Lingming’s number.

“RING… RING… RING…”

After a few rings, the call connected.

“Hello, Yifan. You little rascal, calling me at this hour. What trouble have you gotten into now?”

Sun Lingming’s voice came through the phone.

“Well… Grandpa Sun, something’s come up on my end. I might need you to handle it.”

Gu Yifan said without hesitation.

“Hm?”

Sun Lingming, on the other end of the line, paused. He dropped his playful tone, his voice suddenly growing serious. “What happened?”

“I’m in a bit of trouble. I broke the leg of the Jinling Aotian Group chairman’s son.”

Sun Lingming was rendered speechless.
