Chapitre 32: Chapter 32: Whispers From The Devil
Éditeur: Dragon Boat Translation
"Holy f*ck!?"
"So many people?"
Seeing the aggressive and unfriendly crowd running towards them, Brother Dog made a prompt decision and shouted to his gang, "Retreat! Hurry up and retreat!"
A student from another school was a little hesitant, "But Brother Dog... What about Huang Shaofeng?"
"Don't worry about him. This idiot has obviously provoked someone more powerful than him. If we don't run now, when that group of people finds out that we're on his side, we'll definitely be beaten to a pulp!" Brother Dog said in a low voice.
"Aish! It's my fault too! Zhao Qihang warned me last night not to get involved in Huang Shaofeng's affairs. He told me this kid might cause some trouble, and in the end, I agreed because 'm greedy for health care..."
"Forget it. It's too late to say this now. Let's just cut off all ties with Huang Shaofeng! That guy is really stupid!"
With that, Brother Dog took the lead, and the others followed closely. They ran into the dense bushes and disappeared without a trace.
Lin Ye didn't care about them.
He just quietly looked at Huang Shaofeng lying on the ground, his hand shining with a healing white holy light, waiting for Huang Shaofeng's answer.
However, Huang Shaofeng had always been a person who cared about his reputation, just like how a miser would care about a coin. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come all the way to Lin Ye's place for such a small matter.
It was impossible for him to apologize. He would never apologize in this life. 'If you have the ability, try touching a single hair of mine!'
'Let's see if I won't kill you then!'
Lin Ye furrowed his brow, "You're still not willing to give me a simple apology?"
Huang Shaofeng didn't reply and just gritted his teeth.
Seeing this, Lin Ye put away his Healing Spell and raised his right foot again.
He planned to teach this young master of the Huang family a profound life lesson. Not everyone would be like his father who will accommodate to your every whims.
But suddenly, a person ran out from the crowd of students.
"Lin Ye! Wait a moment!"
Lin Ye turned around and saw that it was the other rich kid, Zhao Qihang. He was clutching a black phone and on his screen was a timer, the seconds going up. He was still on call.
"This is Huang Shaofeng's father... Lin Ye, you should talk to him first!"
Lin Ye's eyes were cold, "So what? His father, the CEO of Huang Corp wants to talk to me? I don't want to prolong this matter any more than it already is."
"No, no," Zhao Qihang quickly calmed him down, "Uncle Huang, he... He wants to apologize to you personally!"
Lin Ye tilted his head, "What?"
Huang Shaofeng, who was still lying on the ground, revealed a look of disbelief, "W-what? My dad is going to apologize in person?"
Zhao Qihang ignored him and turned on the speaker on his black phone on purpose. He handed the phone to Lin Ye and then quietly stepped aside.
"Are you Lin Ye?" A mature man's voice came from the phone.
"It's him," Lin Ye coldly replied.
Undeterred by Lin Ye's tone, the man continued, "Hello, I'm Huang Shaofeng's father, Huang Tianqi... Qihang has already told me the whole situation." Then the man took a deep breath, "I'm very sorry. I didn't teach my son well and caused him a lot of trouble for you. I'm sincerely apologized."
Hearing how sincere the man was, it touched Lin Ye's heart, and he softened his tone, "Mr. Huang, you're too kind."
"I wanted to come there personally, but there's an emergency at the company, But I just had to call you first…" Huang Qitian explained. "I was wondering if you are free tonight? I want to treat you to a meal and apologize to you in person. I want to compensate you for your losses,"
"Also, I hope you can hand Huang Shaofeng over to Qihang so he can bring him home. I'll personally discipline him with the family rules! I promise I'll teach him a good lesson, to make sure that this little bastard won't make the same mistake again!"
Lin Ye glanced at Huang Shaofeng, who was lying on the ground with his world view crumbling. Lin Ye said slowly, "Since Mr. Huang has spoken, I'm fine with it."
"..."
After that, the two of them chatted for a while and agreed on a time and place for dinner. Then, they ended the call.
Lin Ye looked at Zhao Qihang, "You saved him yet again today. Though I doubt that he'll even understand. He probably mistook you for taking my side."
Zhao Qihang sighed, "Whatever. This is the last time anyway. I won't care about him anymore. I'll just let Uncle Huang have his own headache..."
Lin Ye turned his head and glanced at the students who were taking pictures and videos with their phones. "I have a question. Did Huang Shaofeng's father personally called me to apologize because this matter has blown up?"
"That's part of the reason," Zhao Qihang replied honestly. "Your battle and conversation had spread from the school forum to the internet. Huang Corp's rival company is using the public's opinion to attack Uncle Huang and his company..."
"But Uncle Huang really intended to apologize to you and punish Huang Shaofeng for what he did."
"Including last night's events. He tried to stop Huang Shaofeng from looking for you. Somehow, this kid disappeared from our radar and we don't know where he went. We couldn't find any trace of him the whole night, so..."
Huh? If he has a kind and disciplined father like that, then why did Huang Shaofeng become like this?
From his observation, the richer and stronger the father is, the more arrogant their kids would be. Those big fools who looked down on everyone were only a minority.
As if he saw Lin Ye's confusion, Zhao Qihang explained in a low voice, "Uhm… Uncle Huang's family is a little complicated… You should understand that extreme environments easily produce extreme people, and some things are not convenient to tell outsiders. Every family has its own difficulties..."
Lin Ye waved his hand, "Don't worry about it. There's no need to explain. I'll let him go today on account of your and Mr. Huang's request. He's suffered enough anyway."
"But, three things. If he still dares to come to me, then I'll really have to get serious with him. And when that happens, I'll definitely teach him what it means to respect others."
"You guys should go down from the other side of the mountain," Lin Ye turned around and faced the crowd. "I'll deal with the crowd."
Zhao Qihang solemnly cupped his fists, "Thank you so much! I'll treat you to a meal one day!"
With that, Zhao Qihang took out the Sleeping Talisman from his pocket and once again paste it on Huang Shaofeng's forehead.
"Zhao Qihang... You..."
Before he could finish his words, Huang Shaofeng's vision turned black, and his entire consciousness fell into a dead silence as if he was swallowed by a black abyss.
But unlike last time, Huang Shaofeng's consciousness only stopped for three seconds before he woke up again. Suddenly, he heard an extremely sinister voice whisper in his ear, "Hehehe... Pride, envy, wrath, sloth, greed, lust, but gluttony… You human have almost been tainted by all sins. You are the perfect scum..."
"You've been humiliated, looked down upon, your best friend doesn't support you, your own father doesn't help you, and the people around you treat you like you're an annoying street rat..."
"If I were you, I would hate this world, hate this group of sinners. I would want to crush them with my own hands!"
"Don't you think so too?"
"If that's the case~"
"I... Can fulfill your little wish!"
