Chapter 94: Chapter 94 Threat

Here’s the translation of the provided text:

Su Qingnuan curled her lips into a faint smile and said, "I don’t know. Please, explain it to me."

"Explain?" Kong Rong sneered. "I thought the big campus beauty with her top grades would have a sharp mind. But now, it seems that’s not entirely the case."

Gu Xiaoxiao frowned and was about to speak, but the person next to her stopped her.

Su Qingnuan shook her head slightly, her smile unwavering.

"If you have something to say, speak plainly. My brain is too dull to catch your meaning."

"Oh? Admitting you’re stupid now, huh? Then I’ll tell you directly." A flicker of hatred appeared in Kong Rong’s cold eyes. "Was it you who went to the director to report me?"

"It was."

Without the slightest hesitation, Su Qingnuan nodded affirmatively.

"Qingnuan!" Gu Xiaoxiao tugged at her sleeve anxiously. "What are you doing?"

"It’s fine." Su Qingnuan patted Gu Xiaoxiao’s hand and smiled faintly. "In broad daylight, and in a hospital no less, I don’t believe Miss Kong would dare to do anything too extreme."

With reddened eyes, Kong Rong stared at Su Qingnuan. "I underestimated your guts."

"Of course, reporting me to the director takes a certain kind of nerve."

She stood up and pointed at Su Qingnuan. "If not for you, I should be standing on the award podium right now, fulfilling my wager."

"That spot wasn’t yours to begin with." Su Qingnuan sneered. "A victory gained through someone else’s connections—what’s there to be proud of?"

"Connections?" Kong Rong laughed mockingly. "Su Qingnuan, for all you’re a lady from a wealthy family, haven’t you ever enjoyed the benefits your family’s status brings?"

Su Qingnuan furrowed her brows slightly, saying nothing.

"Oh, I remember now. It seems your family doesn’t like you much, do they?"

"Family wealth isn’t an excuse for you to bend the rules." Su Qingnuan sneered. "I’ve seen other people, why don’t they resort to such underhanded tactics? Why is it only you who thinks this way?"

"Others don’t?" Kong Rong raised her voice angrily. "That’s because they don’t have the capability! If they had the means, do you think they wouldn’t want to cheat?"

"They don’t." Su Qingnuan shook her head calmly. "Most people rely on their own abilities. For you to force your own bad ideas onto others—that’s what’s laughable."

At the word "laughable," Kong Rong finally lost her temper and rushed forward.

Gu Xiaoxiao hurriedly stepped in front of Su Qingnuan. "What are you doing? This is a hospital!"

Kong Rong grabbed Gu Xiaoxiao by her collar, shouting angrily, "Get out of my way!"

"No way!" Gu Xiaoxiao shoved Kong Rong back. "Are you insane? You made a mistake yourself, and now you’re blaming others!"

Kong Rong was caught by the people behind her, her face grim.

"Refusing a toast, opting for punishment instead." Kong Rong waved her hand. "Take her down!"

At that command, several black-clad men rushed up and pulled Gu Xiaoxiao aside.

Seeing them about to reach her, Su Qingnuan stepped back, her expression growing colder. "Kong Rong, have you considered the consequences of what you’re doing now?"

"Consequences?" Kong Rong sneered. "I’ve never been one to worry about consequences! Get her now!"

As those men’s hands neared Su Qingnuan, she closed her eyes.

"Stop!"

A sudden voice cut through the tension, and everyone turned toward the hospital room door.

Fu Yihan sat in a wheelchair, his face emotionless as he looked at the people in the room.

"Who are you?" Kong Rong frowned, glaring at Fu Yihan with dissatisfaction. "What’s a cripple doing here? Get out immediately!"

Cripple?

Fu Yihan narrowed his eyes, focusing on the woman in front of him.

"Ah Qi," Fu Yihan said.

Ah Qi hurriedly lowered his head and responded, "Here."

"She called me a cripple." Fu Yihan’s lips curled into a cruel smile. "Who’s the real cripple here?"

Ah Qi lifted his head, expressionless, and looked at the woman. "She is."

"Mhm. Go ahead."

Ah Qi entered the room. Someone darted forward to stop him, but Ah Qi easily pushed them aside.

"What are you doing?" Kong Rong furrowed her brow. "Why are you all standing around? Stop him now!"

As soon as she finished speaking, a group of people rushed in, but in Ah Qi’s eyes, they were just clowns. Within moments, he had dealt with all of them, leaving them sprawled out on the ground.

Seeing this, Kong Rong’s expression changed. She grabbed someone nearby and hid behind them.

"I pay you to work, not freeload! You can’t even stop one person?"

Upon hearing this, the black-clad men rushed forward again.

But such mindless attacks were still useless against Ah Qi.

Slowly, he reached Kong Rong and grabbed the man in front of her. Calmly, he asked, "Miss Kong, if you apologize now for what you said earlier, our Eldest Young Master might forgive you."

Terrified, Kong Rong glanced at Fu Yihan, trembling, and spoke haltingly.

"Eldest Young Master? I’m the Young Miss here! Just because you’re sitting in a wheelchair, you dare act like someone important?"

Fu Yihan’s gaze grew colder as he stared at Kong Rong, as though looking at a corpse.

Ah Qi sighed softly.

"You brought this on yourself."

With that, he threw the man aside and grabbed Kong Rong.

"Hey! What are you doing? Let go of me!" Kong Rong shouted, struggling against Ah Qi.

Ah Qi released her, causing Kong Rong to fall to the ground, landing hard on her backside.

"You!" Kong Rong scrambled to stand.

Ah Qi pursed his lips and reached out again, lifting Kong Rong off the ground.

"What are you doing?"

She grabbed Ah Qi’s hand and shouted angrily, "Do you even know who I am? How dare you humiliate me like this—you’re dead meat!"

"Who are you?" Ah Qi asked.

"She’s Kong Rong, daughter of the Kong family," Gu Xiaoxiao quickly interjected.

"Oh." With a blank expression, Ah Qi tightened his grip and lifted her.

"Didn’t you hear me? I’m the second Miss of the Kong family! And you dare treat me like this!"

Ah Qi said coldly, "Never heard of the Kong family."

"You!"

He tossed Kong Rong again, treating her like a rag doll.

Kong Rong had no ability to resist, and the black-clad men who had been beaten to the ground pretended not to see anything, lying still as though dead.

Hearing Kong Rong cry, Su Qingnuan frowned slightly.

"Mr. Fu," Su Qingnuan said quietly, "She’s still a woman, after all."

Fu Yihan, previously emotionless, raised an eyebrow at her words.

"Aren’t you a woman?" he asked.

Su Qingnuan fell silent.

Everyone present knew how Kong Rong had treated her earlier. What Ah Qi was doing now was nowhere near as cruel as what Su Qingnuan had endured.

Her speaking up for Kong Rong in this moment seemed foolish.

No one said anything further. The only sound in the room was Kong Rong’s sobbing.

"I was wrong!" Kong Rong struggled to break free from Ah Qi’s grip, tears streaming down her face. "I was really wrong! Please stop!"

Ah Qi raised an eyebrow and followed her, catching her by the collar yet again and lifting her before tossing her back onto the floor.
