"Yellow Hair Bro, why'd you let them go?" Yan Xiaoli, seeing Yellow Hair and Li Bin chummy for a bit before letting him walk, hurried over with a resentful tone to question him.
"The hell, you think you can tell me what to do?" Yellow Hair's face darkened, glaring fiercely at Yan Xiaoli, scaring the timid girl into silence as she stepped back twice in fear.
"Yellow Hair Bro, don't get so mad. You must have your reasons for doing this. We'll just follow your lead," Liu Jiayu, clearly more tactful, quickly smoothed things over with a smile.
"Heh, Jiayu, you're the sensible one. I've got plans for this. Oh, by the way, you guys graduated too, so we might not see each other much anymore. Today, I'm treating—let's grab some food and celebrate," Yellow Hair said, suddenly grinning at Liu Jiayu.
Liu Jiayu glanced at Red Hair, who immediately chimed in with a smile, "Let's go! The boss is paying, so let's have a blast today!"
"Xiaoli, what about you?" Yellow Hair turned to Yan Xiaoli with a grin.
Yellow Hair was the biggest thug around the school, holding serious clout in the nearby area.
He'd once taken on five guys in a fight and won, even breaking a student's arm in retaliation. After a stint in jail, he became the undisputed kingpin among students, who all called him "Yellow Hair Bro" out of respect.
Yan Xiaoli was timid and introverted, originally a top student who wouldn't have mixed with these street punks.
A few months ago, she'd crossed another girl in a different class, who threatened to slap her after school. Scared, Yan Xiaoli had no choice but to turn to Liu Jiayu, who introduced her to Yellow Hair and his crew.
Yellow Hair and Liu Jiayu not only helped her get even but also slapped the other girl twice to vent Yan Xiaoli's anger.
From then on, Yan Xiaoli got hooked on the thrill of strutting around with Liu Jiayu and the others, bullying other girls at school.
At first, she loved the feeling of being backed by these tough guys, lording it over others.
But now, she was starting to regret it.
If it weren't for wanting to see Wen Ting humiliated, feeding her jealousy and enjoying the thrill of crushing her, Yan Xiaoli wouldn't have shown up today.
In her mind, as a top student headed to Zhejiang University with a bright future, she didn't need to keep hanging with these lowlifes.
Once she got to college, fighting and drama would probably be behind her.
So, Yan Xiaoli wanted to cut ties with these punks and start distancing herself.
"Yellow Hair Bro… I… I've got some stuff to do… I won't go today…" Yan Xiaoli mumbled nervously, head down, refusing timidly.
"Xiaoli! You looking down on us? Not giving me face?!" Yellow Hair's eyes narrowed, his face darkening as he stared at her.
"No! That's not it! Yellow Hair Bro, how could I look down on you guys… I…" Yan Xiaoli frantically waved her hands, trying to explain.
"Xiaoli, come on, it's a rare chance! We're graduating soon, and Yellow Hair Bro's inviting us. You gotta give him some face. Last time, if it wasn't for him, you'd have been beaten up, and so many people would've laughed at you, right? Let's go have fun today. You got into Zhejiang University, while I'm stuck with a technical school. Who knows when we'll get to hang out again?" Liu Jiayu grabbed Yan Xiaoli's arm, persuading her.
"Xiaoli, come on, we've been friends for so long. It'll be hard to meet up after this," the black-haired thug added with a grin.
"Alright… fine… but… I need to go home early…" Yan Xiaoli said nervously, clutching her clothes, head bowed.
"Cool, whatever you say. Let's grab food first! Then we'll hit the skating rink and a bar!" Hearing Yan Xiaoli agree, Yellow Hair smirked coldly, waving everyone into his beat-up second-hand Hyundai as they sped off.
…Meanwhile, Li Bin, who had taken Wen Ting to a nearby hotel for a meal, was staring out the window at the scenery, a smile on his face.
Li Bin was in a great mood today.
A top-tier woman like Qin Manwen was way out of his league as an ordinary guy.
Forget sleeping with her—shaking her hand was a pipe dream.
But today, Li Bin had scored scandalous photos and videos that could be used to blackmail her.
The run-in with those punks had soured his mood a bit, but thinking about how Liu Jiayu and Yan Xiaoli might soon be in trouble lifted his spirits even more.
"Wonder if those punks can handle those two little sluts!" Li Bin muttered to himself, glancing at Wen Ting, who was happily eating Japanese cuisine.
