Chapter 216: Chapter 216: Not Settled

With Lin Qiuyuan leading the way, Shen Yunqing and Xu Ling’an smoothly exited the gates of Minghe Courtyard without encountering a single person.

A dark figure stood by the car. Seeing Shen Yunqing come out, he reached to open the car door behind him, "Majesty, where is Miss Jiang?"

"Tidying up."

Wu Jue nodded, looking at Shen Yunqing’s arms, "Still asleep?"

"Yes, she must be drunk. I’ll put her in the car, you check her pulse."

"Alright."

In the car, Wu Jue took the slender wrist of the young girl to feel her pulse. By the light of the overhead lamp, his gaze fell on her face.

Her slightly sparse eyebrows twitched almost imperceptibly.

Shen Yunqing waited for him to release her hand, "How is she?"

"No big problems, she probably just unintentionally drank some strong alcohol. A little sleep and she’ll be fine."

"Stay in the car and watch over her," Shen Yunqing said, and then turned to get out of the car, looking at Lin Qiuyuan who stood quietly outside, not leaving, "I hope there won’t be any recordings or images unfavorable against us other than those directly involved today."

Lin Qiuyuan had already prepared, efficiently handing over a USB drive engraved with the words ’Minghe’, "This contains the surveillance of all public areas of the courtyard tonight. The original footage has been deleted after backup. Rest assured, Mr. Shen, Minghe Courtyard wouldn’t want to lose a distinguished guest like yourself."

Shen Yunqing took the USB drive, "Thank you."

"Happy to serve you!"

In the corridor.

Watching that fearsome figure disappear from view, the three of them finally dared to slightly move their bodies.

Lin Chan smoothing out her already chaotic hair with trembling hands, without the obstruction of hair, met two bloodshot eyes staring intensely at her, causing her to shudder uncontrollably.

"I-I’m going back now." She said, struggling to get up and leave.

"Ah!"

As she was about to stand, her calf was suddenly grabbed by a hand, forcefully pulling her back, and Lin Chan screamed as she fell back into a seated position, turning to see Li Fei’s fierce expression and bared teeth, "What are you doing?"

Li Fei gripped Lin Chan’s calf to prevent her from escaping, while his other hand clutched his chest, enduring severe pain, he slowly shifted from sitting to a half-kneeling position, "Why are you running away, I haven’t accounted with you yet. If it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t have suffered a kick, nor been forced to record such a video. You’ve ruined me so badly, and you want to just run away, where in the world is there such a good deal!"

The physical strength difference between genders was evident. Even though Li Fei was injured, Lin Chan struggled a few times but couldn’t break free. She could only defend herself crying, "I was forced to be in the video too, I lost a newly bought phone that I spent over three thousand yuan on. Besides, don’t think I don’t know you’re interested in Xu Ling’an too, you looked at her several times today, I was just helping you, who would have thought two unexpected obstacles would appear!"

Li Fei tightened his grip on Lin Chan’s calf, instinctively glancing at the uncharacteristically silent Han Ye.

But not knowing what he was thinking, he didn’t react at all.

Relieved, Li Fei sneered at Lin Chan, "You’re talking nonsense, who was looking at that little bookworm!"

"Then why did you get kicked," Lin Chan decided to throw caution to the wind, coldly sneering, "If you didn’t do anything in the room, would you get kicked?"

"I was drunk and mistook the little bookworm for my Goddess, so what!"

Lin Chan was about to retort when a low growl came from the side, "Shut up, all of you!"

Han Ye looked at the two who had started turning against each other like dogs biting dogs, his head throbbing as he stood up, looking down from above, "Get lost!"

He had never found the sight of these two people so annoying, if they continued arguing, he wouldn’t be able to suppress the violence in his heart.

Li Fei wanted to say something, but seeing Han Ye’s expression at this moment, he held his tongue. After glaring hard at Lin Chan, "Take me to the hospital, I need to check my injury."

Lin Chan was reluctant, fearing that Li Fei would ask her to pay for the medical expenses once they were at the hospital.

She had lost her phone and had no money to pay for medical expenses.

"Is it that serious?"

Li Fei bluntly lifted the hem of his shirt, Lin Chan was about to turn her head away, but caught sight of something out of the corner of her eye, and couldn’t help but grimace.

Xu Ling’an’s sister seemed skinny, Lin Chan had thought Li Fei’s consecutive steps back after being kicked were due to his drunken state.

But looking now at the complete bruise on his chest, her certainty wavered.

Li Fei put his shirt down, using Lin Chan’s shoulder as support to stand up, taking a sharp breath, "Thanks to you, my ribs might be fractured. Not only do you have to pay for the medical expenses, but you also have to stay in the hospital and take care of me until I’m discharged."

His anger was far from subsiding, not only did he fail to take advantage today, but he also got injured. During Lin Chan’s time in the hospital, she’d better be prepared to be tormented by him.

This anger won’t fade until it is vented!

Han Ye stood still, watching Li Fei and Lin Chan disappear from his view. After hesitating for a moment, he made a call to his uncle, "Uncle, do you know if there’s a VIP guest named Mr. Shen at Minghe Courtyard?"

"Mr. Shen? Doesn’t ring a bell. Has your class reunion ended?"

"Yes, I’ll return the membership card to you tomorrow. Can you think it over again, really no impression? Oh, and the staff member who received Mr. Shen had a badge with ’senior reception’, Lin Qiuyuan."

"Senior, surname Lin, was she wearing a cheongsam, around thirty years old?"

Hearing the significantly faster speech from the other end of the line, Han Ye’s heart sank, "Yes."

"Guests served by Ms. Lin should be among the initial members of Minghe Courtyard, reportedly no more than ten members. Moreover, they don’t have to pay membership fees, personally given by Minghe Courtyard’s behind-the-scenes boss. Did you meet Mr. Shen there? You didn’t offend him, did you?"

"No," Han Ye tried to keep his tone light, "I just saw him by chance, got curious."

"Then you’re luckier than your uncle, I’ve been there many times and have never met any of those initial members."

"It’s late, uncle, you should rest early."

After hanging up, Han Ye looked at the empty courtyard before him, took a deep breath, and left quickly.

Today, he finally understood what it means to be outclassed, both in the heavens above and among men.

Fortunately, alongside him in this experience were Li Fei, Lin Chan, and her cousin Lin Xuefei.

These three people: one exploiting others’ misfortunes, another shallow and foolish, and the last malicious.

Now Li Fei and Lin Chan have received their lesson, but Lin Xuefei hasn’t.

Han Ye had a strange feeling that this matter wouldn’t end just like that.

Fortunately, he didn’t actually do anything to Xu Ling’an, which is the only thing he feels grateful for now.

But those two pairs of eyes, which seemed to see right through him, would likely become his nightmares for some time!
