Chapter 91 Brilliant Counterattack (3)
Yang Bin was beaten black and blue and his pretty face could hardly be seen as it should be. He could only lie on the ground and breathe heavily. He looked really miserable.
The class monitor finally reacted and bravely stepped forward to stop Ling Mohan, “Mr. Ling, calm down, please, you’re going to kill him. Yang Bin is just sharp-tongued. He usually doesn’t speak seriously. Besides, he is drunk now. You must ignore him. Just teach him a lesson and let him go.”
“I know when to stop.” A corner of Ling Mohan’s mouth curved into a cold arc. As he spoke, another punch landed on Yang Bin’s abdomen, causing Yang Bin’s body to curl up.
The corners of everyone’s lips twitched. Did he really know when to stop?
The class monitor looked at Ling Mohan’s tall figure and then at his own thin body. He decided that it would be better for him to shut up, so as not to invite trouble and get beaten up all over the ground.
Moreover, Yang Bin was truly too sharp-tongued. He said in the faces of so many classmates that Qin Shu seduced Tang Anru’s boyfriend and that she was being kept by someone. The class monitor as an outsider even felt it was unpleasant to hear.
If his girlfriend were to suffer this kind of slander, he would roll up his sleeves to fight with the slanderer without saying a word, and he would beat up whomever it might be!
If Ling Mohan had allowed Qin Shu to be bullied and not dared to stand up for her, not to mention he was a colonel, even if he were a general, the class monitor would have looked down on him.
Thinking this way, the class monitor understood very well why Ling Mohan did that.
Suddenly, Tang Anru, who was nestling beside Qi Mingran, walked over and said to Qin Shu with an anxious and apologetic expression, “I’m sorry, it’s all my fault, it’s all because of me! If you’re angry, blame me. Don’t let Mr. Ling beat Yang Bin! We were all classmates, it’s not like you didn’t know that Yang Bin’s temperament is straightforward. In fact, he didn’t mean any malicious intentions. Qin Shu, will you forgive him?”
“Anru, this has nothing to do with you. You don’t have to apologize for Yang Bin.” Qi Mingran also walked over and hugged Tang Anru. “Qin Shu, Yang Bin was after all your classmate. Even though he said something unpleasant to hear, you shouldn’t have let someone beat him up like this.”
Qi Mingran did not speak out Ling Mohan’s name, but lectured Qin Shu in a reproachful tone.
Tang Anru’s face was filled with apology. She apologized for Yang Bin and said good things for him. She even took the blame for him. In the eyes of others, she was doing this all because of their friendship as classmates.
The two of Tang Anru and Qi Mingran echoed each other and kept reminding Qin Shu of that they were all classmates. They accused Qin Shu of not caring about her classmate’s feelings and instigating Ling Mohan to bully and beat Yang Bin. They were almost saying that Qin Shu was evil and malicious.
As for Yang Bin’s fault, in their eyes, it was just that his words were not pleasant to hear, and he meant no malice in essence.
Qin Shu couldn’t help but laugh. She sarcastically said, “It’s really easy for you two to say this! Because you two are not the victim, you just don’t know how much pain it hurts, do you? Am I supposed to be born with a kind heart and allow others to trample on me and slander me? Then I’d even say with a smile that it doesn’t matter? I’m sorry, I can’t do that!”
Her words were loud and forceful. The class monitor stood behind Qi Mingran and gave her a thumbs up quietly.
Qin Shu was delighted in her heart and was about to speak again when Qi Mingran frowned and said, “Qin Shu, how did you become like this now? You used to…”
“My Little Qin Shu used to be like this as well. It’s just that you didn’t have the chance to know her.” Ling Mohan interrupted Qi Mingran coldly and turned his gaze to Qin Shu. His originally cold gaze changed and contained a hint of softness. “I like her to be like this!”
Qin Shu, “…”
Cough, this bastard’s last sentence was quite pleasant to hear.
Qi Mingran’s expression was a little gloomy. He could not help but clench his fists that were hanging beside himself, and then slowly released them. Finally, he expressionlessly said, “As long as you like it.”
“Of course.” Ling Mohan’s expression was arrogant and he held onto Qin Shu’s hand tightly, as if he was afraid that she would be snatched away by someone.
The other girls looked at Qin Shu with envy and whispered, “Looks like Qin Shu’s boyfriend dotes on her very much. I also want such a boyfriend.”
“He’s such a domineering soldier boyfriend… Sigh, if my boyfriend is willing to protect me like this, I’ll marry him even if he doesn’t have a house or a car!”
“See, Qin Shu already has such a good boyfriend, why would she seduce Mr. Qi? Yang Bin’s words were going too far.”
“Actually, I heard that Mr. Qi and Qin Shu had been together in secret once before, and it seemed like someone stepped in between them, and then they broke up.”
“You mean Tang Anru…”
“Shh, keep your voice down. Don’t talk nonsense. Tang Anru isn’t the kind of woman who would steal her bosom friend’s boyfriend.”
No matter how much low voices those discussions were in, they still came to Qin Shu’s ears word by word.
She looked at Tang Anru and Qi Mingran with a faint smile. She did not know how much these two people had heard and what they were thinking in their hearts. It seemed that they did not hear anything.
Ling Mohan was a high-ranking special forces soldier, and his hearing was exceptionally acute. Those so-called whispers were just normal-volume words to him, and they came to his ears incomparably clearly.
Especially when hearing the sentence “Qin Shu already has such a good boyfriend, why would she seduce Mr. Qi,” Ling Mohan felt extremely comfortable in his heart. The corners of his mouth couldn’t help but curl up slightly.
He stared straight at Qi Mingran and said in a mocking and disdainful tone, “According to what you just said, If I were to say that your girlfriend is shameless and seduces her bosom friend’s boyfriend, you wouldn’t be angry with me, and you would even persuade Miss Tang to be magnanimous and not quarrel with me, right?”
Qin Shu chuckled.
Qi Mingran’s handsome face was somewhat cloudy. He knitted his brows and hugged Tang Anru tightly, saying word for word, “Anru would never do such a thing. Your assumption is untenable.”
“Is that so?” Qin Shu raised her eyebrows and curved her lips into a mocking smile.
“Of course!” Qi Mingran pursed his thin lips and looked at Qin Shu with a complicated expression. He added, “Even if Mr. Ling’s assumption is tenable, Anru must have her reason to do that. I believe she doesn’t want to do that in her heart.”
“Mingran, thank you for trusting me.” Tang Anru raised her head and smiled tenderly at Qi Mingran.
Qi Mingran said affectionately, “You are my girlfriend, how can I not believe you?”
The two of them seemed to be loving lovers.
A sweet smile appeared on Tang Anru’s gentle face. Then, she looked at Ling Mohan and said softly, “Mr. Ling, I think you should have misunderstood me a lot. That’s why you made this assumption.”
She looked at Qin Shu and a faint layer of mist appeared in her eyes. She whispered and choked with sobs, “I know that Qin Shu is still blaming me for apologizing on her behalf, and is also blaming me for not being able to pull her in time in that car accident. I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. It’s because I’m not good enough that Qin Shu gets angry at me. You are her boyfriend, so you should protect and believe her. But I hope that one day the four of us can sit down and have a good chat. We shouldn’t let the misunderstanding continue.”
Tang Anru said the above in a wronged and enduring tone. Qi Mingran worried about her very much and said, “Anru, this is not your fault. Don’t blame yourself anymore.”
“There’s nothing to misunderstand,” Qin Shu said indifferently, “Tang Anru, you know what you’ve done in your own heart. I don’t want to expose anything about you in public because I’m still thinking about the friendship between our two families when we were young. But don’t push your luck.”
“Qin Shu, I didn’t do anything. You really misunderstood.” Tang Anru bit her pink lips lightly, looking as if she was being bullied and at a loss what to do. Her eyes were still brimming with tears, and she looked so pitiful.
Qi Mingran cared about her and hurriedly comforted her in a low voice, “Alright, alright, stop talking. Those who believe in you will naturally believe you. Those who don’t believe in you, no matter how hard you explain, they won’t listen.”
“But Qin Shu is my best friend…” Tang Anru wiped away her tears gently, with her frowning brows filled with reluctance and grievance.
“Enough!” Ling Mohan did not like this kind of soft and weak woman, and finally he revealed an impatient expression.
Qin Shu suddenly said, “Not enough.”
“What?” Tang Anru was stunned. Looking at Qin Shu’s indifferent expression, an uneasy feeling arose in her heart.
Ling Mohan thought that Qin Shu was going against him and said angrily, “Don’t make trouble with me. I hate women crying the most. Do you want her to continue crying?”
“Yes, I just want her to continue crying.” Qin Shu blinked at Ling Mohan, with a crafty smile flashing across her eyes.
Ling Mohan raised his eyebrows slightly.
Qin Shu quickly walked over to the jukebox, took out her phone and the data cable she carried with her, then quickly connected her phone to the jukebox.
When Tang Anru saw this, her expression suddenly became nervous. Could it be that Qin Shu wanted to show the photos in public?!
“Qin Shu!” She couldn’t help but shout, her voice filled with anxiety. Then, she pushed Qi Mingran away and quickly walked towards Qin Shu.
Other classmates in the private room were puzzled. What was going on?
Tang Anru grabbed Qin Shu’s wrist and pleaded in a low voice, “You, you want to display those photos? Qin Shu, can you not do that? We used to be so close, and we used to go to school and play together when we were young. Even though Uncle Qin killed my parents in the car accident, I never blamed you…”
“Don’t worry, I don’t intend to expose the matter between you and Yang Bin.” Qin Shu interrupted her with a smile. “I just want to claim justice for myself.”
“You…” Tang Anru looked at Qin Shu’s smile and felt uneasier and uneasier in her heart. She could not help but grab Qin Shu’s hand tightly and almost pinched her fingernails into her skin.
Qin Shu frowned and lowered her head to take a look. Then, she pressed the Play button without hesitation.
In the next second, Tang Anru’s weak and pitiful voice echoed throughout the private room from the jukebox, “Mr. Qi, there are some words I have thought about for a long time and I want to say to you. Otherwise, I will regret it in the future.”
“Do you know? I like you so much. The first time I saw you, my heart skipped a beat. My feelings for you have nothing to do with your family background. It’s only because your mature and elegant temperament attracts me deeply. But I know that you and Qin Shu are together. I can’t destroy your relationship. I can only like you silently like this.”
It was a very short confession, but the person who confessed was Tang Anru, and when she made this love confession, she clearly knew that Qi Mingran and Qin Shu were together!
If she really had treated Qin Shu as her bosom friend, even if she liked Qi Mingran, she should have buried her love in her heart instead of making a love confession when the other two were still in love. She was clearly intending to step in.
In an instant, many classmates’ gazes were focused on Tang Anru, and Tang Anru’s face was pale.
The recording was still playing. Back then, when Qin Shu found out the affair between the two of them, she secretly recorded much of their conversation.
On the jukebox, Qi Mingran said in a pitiful tone, “Anru, you’ve been by my side all this time, and I can’t help but be moved by you. Don’t cry, I will break up with Qin Shu tomorrow, then we can be together openly in the future…”
The recording stopped abruptly here. Qin Shu got the effect she wanted. She swept her gaze around the stunned classmates in the room and said with a smile, “Alright, everyone has heard what happened now. I believe that everyone knows who is shameless enough to seduce her bosom friend’s boyfriend, so I won’t say her name out loud.”
Ling Mohan looked at the way she showed off her cleverness and felt funny in his heart. This little woman was truly a typical evildoer. She already played the recording. There was no need to say anything.
Tsk, he really wanted to see how this good show would end.
