Chapter 735: Chapter 735: Teach a Lesson

Ye Chunxiao’s lips quivered as her body trembled like leaves ruthlessly blown down by the autumn wind.

Zhou Xitong didn’t hear the truth from her mouth, but she understood the truth from Ye Chunxiao’s response.

How disgusting, to use such means to mess with her.

Zhou Xitong looked at Brother Li, "Teach her a lesson, let her know that one can’t be too despicable."

"No, please don’t."

"Xitong, I beg you, for the sake of us being classmates..."

Ye Chunxiao wanted to say more, but her mouth was gagged by a smelly, rotten cloth.

Brother Li signalled, and several thugs cornered Ye Chunxiao and started punching and kicking her.

These people were experienced, they chose to hit places that had more flesh and were less prone to cause serious injury.

But it hurt exceptionally.

Ye Chunxiao bent over, tears streaming down her face, but all her screams were muffled.

Zhou Xitong, with her hands on her hips, watched with interest for a while before she called a stop.

"Alright, don’t leave her crippled; I still fear she might demand medical fees from me."

No sooner had she spoken than the trained men stopped.

Brother Li grabbed Ye Chunxiao by the hair, forcing her to lift her head.

The places they had hit were covered by clothes, and apart from the slap marks earlier, Ye Chunxiao’s face bore no other injuries.

But now, with tears and snot running down her face, she looked exceptionally dirty and wretched.

A look of disgust appeared on Zhou Xitong’s face.

"You caused my expulsion. I merely had someone beat you up this once. Turns out, you still come out ahead."

"Let’s just leave matters as they are this time. I can’t be bothered to fuss over this with you anymore. Just don’t let me find out you’ve been talking behind my back again, or it won’t be this simple next time."

Zhou Xitong looked at Brother Li, "I’ll have someone send the other half of the money to you later."

Brother Li, who followed the principle that the customer is always right, had a service attitude that could win a gold medal in sales.

"Thank you, Miss Zhou. Take care. We’ll take care of the rest, guaranteed not to cause any trouble for you."

Zhou Xitong gave Ye Chunxiao a cold glance and leisurely walked away under the fearful and wary gaze of her former roommate.

With the financier gone, Brother Li’s attitude toward Ye Chunxiao became surprisingly warm and friendly.

"We just do the dirty work for money, sorry for today’s offense."

The man reached out to remove the rotten cloth from Ye Chunxiao’s mouth and gave her a smile.

"I’ll have someone take you back to the school in a bit, but remember not to talk nonsense."

Ye Chunxiao bit her lower lip in acknowledgment, but her eyes flashed with resentment.

Brother Li raised his eyebrows, "Young lady, you’d best not think of doing anything foolish. Reporting to the police is useless against people like us. Even if you go for an injury examination, it probably won’t meet the standard for a minor injury. After a little education, we’d be right back out."

"But once we’re out, what will happen to you is another story."

Ye Chunxiao’s heart quivered as she watched the man’s smirking expression.

"You let me go, I won’t say anything."

Brother Li leaned in closer, "That’s good then. We all have to make a living after all. Who asked you to offend someone you shouldn’t have? You’re lucky you ran into us who play by the rules, if it were someone else, that wouldn’t necessarily be the case."

After he finished, the thugs laughed together as if they had just heard a funny joke.

Ye Chunxiao, limping, was escorted by a punk to the school’s gate.

Making sure she truly hadn’t done anything extra.

After this incident, Ye Chunxiao became even more timid than before, not daring to step half a foot outside the school gates.

She hardly interacted or spoke with other students at the school, becoming as skittish as a frightened bird.

She used to hate school, feeling oppressed and irritable every day by her studies.

But now, the school had become her sanctuary, and Ye Chunxiao dreaded the thought of what she would do if Zhou Xitong came looking for trouble after graduation.
