7 – The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character of the Aristocratic Family Seven
And she actually dared to treat her like one of those high-class escorts last night, huh!
“Why are you following me! I just like riding a bike!” Jiang Huai glared at him displeased, feeling no goodwill toward him due to his suspicions from the previous night, and sped up her cycling.
The driver never expected anyone to dare speak to Master Yun like that—usually everyone addressed him with utmost respect and courtesy.
He thought the master would be furious, but surprisingly, he didn’t see him take any drastic action against the woman.
Gu Yunze’s expression darkened slightly as he watched her humiliate him like this, though he wasn’t truly angry. He said to the driver, “Follow her.”
What’s wrong with him? He’s handsome and wealthy, so why does she always treat him with such cold disdain?
Gu Yunze couldn’t understand why it felt like she had rejected him more than twice already.
Could it be that she still likes that Leng Huiyan!
At this thought, his expression grew even darker.
Jiang Huai rode her bicycle, occasionally glancing back at the Rolls-Royce Phantom. Why was this person following her so persistently?
Forget it, let him be. If she ignored him a few times, someone so accustomed to arrogance wouldn’t be able to stand being disregarded and would leave on his own.
Gu Yunze didn’t get out of the car either, just followed her at a leisurely pace until Jiang Huai rode into the school grounds.
Watching her slender figure pushing the bicycle inside, Gu Yunze gazed intently for a moment before coldly instructing the driver, “To Night Charm.”
The driver obediently made a U-turn.
Night Charm was a bar that only operated in the evenings. Those without strong backgrounds might not even know who owned the place.
Gu Yunze’s tall, upright figure entered through the back door of Night Charm alone.
In the exquisitely decorated, luxurious corridor, a dozen bodyguards stood uniformly on the left, their expressions stern and cold. Upon seeing Gu Yunze enter, they respectfully greeted,
“Master Yun!”
“Master Yun, the person is in room 102.”
Gu Yunze’s eyes turned cold, a bloodthirsty smile curling at the corner of his lips. “Lead the way!”
“Yes.”
Leng Huiyan had been indulging with two beauties at Night Charm bar until 3 a.m., lost in debauchery.
Then, a group of men in black barged in, forced him to get dressed, dragged him downstairs, and locked him in a room.
For several hours, the room remained silent and pitch black. Leng Huiyan’s psychological defenses had reached their limit.
He was on the verge of breaking down when the door finally opened.
“Click.”
Faint strands of light filtered in. The tall figure stood silhouetted against the light. Having been in darkness for so long, Leng Huiyan reflexively shielded his eyes with his hand, but the man was already standing before him.
The sound of expensive black leather shoes clicking against the tiles echoed clearly in the silent, dim room, sending an inexplicable fear through Leng Huiyan, who sat on the floor.
Gu Yunze raised his foot and pressed it firmly against Leng Huiyan’s shoulder, causing him to stagger backward but steady himself.
Panicked and loud, Leng Huiyan demanded, “Who are you? Why have you kidnapped me here? Get your foot off me! Do you know who I am? My father is Leng Qinglian!”
Gu Yunze looked down at his pathetic state, applying slight pressure with his foot to immobilize him. His voice was cold and mocking, “Leng Qinglian! Hah, he wouldn’t even dare to breathe heavily in my presence. You really enjoy playing with women, don’t you!”
Gu Yunze slowly raised his hand. The bodyguard behind him instantly understood his meaning, drawing a black, cold-gleaming short dagger from his waist and bending to hand it over respectfully.
“Master Yun!”After Gu Yunze took the dagger, before Leng Junyan could react to what he was about to do, he threw it from above, and the blade flew straight down, striking his third leg.
“Ahhhh!” Leng Junyan let out a pig-like scream, the pain leaving his mind blank.
Gu Yunze released the foot that had been pressing on his shoulder, his sharp gaze fixed on him as he writhed in agony. “Daring to covet someone I’ve set my sights on! You’ve grown tired of living!”
Leng Junyan trembled uncontrollably, his legs shaking violently as cold sweat dripped from his forehead onto the ground.
His voice quivered, “I haven’t touched your person, why are you doing this to me? Who exactly are you?”
He mostly played around with bar girls—when had he ever messed with women from outside?
“Hah, do you know Gu Yunze?”
Leng Junyan’s eyes widened, his heart roiling with shock. How could it be him?
That man known as the underground king of the capital, the ruler above ground—Master Yun. His father had once warned him that he could play around however he wanted, but he must never provoke this man, or he might face devastating retaliation.
He might not even know how he died.
“Master Yun, I don’t know when I stepped on your tail. Please, spare me!”
At this moment, Leng Junyan couldn’t even care about the fate of his manhood. Though he was a playboy, he wasn’t foolish.
Without the Leng Family, he was nothing. If the Leng Family fell, the enemies he had made over the years would tear him to pieces!
“The wedding in two days—you handle it yourself! She is mine!”
Leng Junyan snapped awake instantly. So it was that stunning beauty. Of course, with looks like that, it was no wonder Master Yun had taken an interest.
“I understand, I understand. Please spare me. Can you not retaliate against the Leng Family? I’ll have them cancel the engagement immediately.”
Gu Yunze let out a light laugh, glanced at him disdainfully, and turned to walk out the door.
“Throw him out!”
“Yes!”
Leng Junyan was dragged away roughly, not daring to utter a sound even as the pain tore through his mind.
…
Since returning to school, Jiang Huai had been the subject of sidelong glances from her medical school classmates all morning. Their gazes held infatuation, confusion, admiration, curiosity…
But she paid no attention, focusing solely on her own tasks.
She knew they were all wondering how Jiang Huai had transformed into a different person. After all, her entire demeanor was no longer as dull and gloomy as the original owner’s.
Instead, she had become confident, radiant, and dazzlingly captivating.
Lin Xiaoxiao and her best friend Lu Yao were walking along the tree-lined path on campus when they saw Jiang Huai approaching. That was exactly the feeling they had.
When had this wretch become so dazzling?
Her smooth, jet-black straight hair seemed more elegant than Lu Yao’s brown wavy locks, both pure and alluring at once.
Lu Yao was a petite girl with a heart-shaped face, dressed head-to-toe in designer brands. Clinging to Lin Xiaoxiao’s arm, she watched Jiang Huai approach and sneered, “Oh, isn’t this our Xiaoxiao’s sister? Did you get plastic surgery? Don’t think dressing up a little prettier will make our Xiaoxiao’s boyfriend take an interest in you!”
Her words reminded the passing students of the rumors that had been spreading across the university lately—the scandal about the older sister having a crush on the younger sister’s boyfriend.
A dozen or so people stopped to see what was really going on.
That girl with ink-black hair cascading over her shoulders, exuding a lazy elegance, was truly beautiful.
They all thought the same, without needing to say a word.Jiang Huai’s delicate, fair face flashed with disbelief, her eyes tearfully gazing at Lin Xiaoxiao as if unable to believe she would still allow others to speak of her that way.
