She despised Xia Yingluo even more now. After disappearing for so many years, could it be that she had found a new sugar daddy? This Li Rui was clearly a hedonistic son of rich parents who trifled without respect. Since he was so close to Xia Yingluo, she could figure out what kind of relations.h.i.+p they had even with her toes. But Xia Yingluo was so shameless that she even brought him into the cla.s.sroom. She really thought it was so great to have a sugar daddy?
Her eyes looked on scornfully.
Li Rui looked at her with interest. “The official school chief Xia Yingluo is here, and yet you dare to say that.”
“Sister Bilian is the chief of the school year.” Zhu Zhu boldly supported Jiang Bilian.
“Yeah, Bilian is.” Many boys also gave Jiang Bilian support. Jiang Bilian was their G.o.ddess. She was gentle and graceful, while Xia Yingluo was too fickle. She had even changed her sugar daddy one after another ever since she entered school. The point was that each of them was richer, more powerful and handsome than them, which made them extremely jealous and resentful.
Li Rui’s gaze swept around the cla.s.sroom again and he grinned. “I remember all of you.”
He turned his fingertips slightly and took out his cell phone to make a call. “Tell Imperial’s training camp’s Princ.i.p.al to roll in front of me within three minutes.”
This sentence made everyone in the cla.s.sroom except Xia Yingluo feel as though it was just an illusion. What, let the princ.i.p.al roll in front of him within three minutes? Who did he think he was! The Emperor?!
Even Jin Ling’er uneasily pulled on Xia Yingluo’s sleeves. “Yingluo…”
Xia Yingluo knew what she was worried about. She smiled rea.s.suringly and said lowly, “Relax, he’s terrific.”
How powerful could he be? How could he direct the Imperial’s training camp’s princ.i.p.al?
The authority of the training camp’s princ.i.p.al in this city even exceeded many small giants!
Jiang Bilian was also stunned and glanced at Teacher Qian inquiringly.
Teacher Qian was trying to guess what kind of background the man in front of her had. She had never heard of such a hedonistic son of the Pei family. If he didn’t belong to the Pei family, it wasn’t possible for him to command the training camp’s princ.i.p.al, so could he just be putting on a bluff? “Excuse me, who are you?” With doubts in her mind, Teacher Qian was even polite.
Li Rui simply ignored her.
If it wasn’t for her younger sister, he wouldn’t even have bothered with these people.
The atmosphere turned heavy with the silent awkwardness.
However, three minutes pa.s.sed and the princ.i.p.al didn’t show up.
Teacher Qian’s face gradually changed from nervousness to relaxation. “Sir, if you don’t tell me your ident.i.ty, I’ll call the security guard.” In her opinion, Li Rui was obviously bluffing and had failed.
Jiang Bilian’s eyes also showed disdain, and she looked at Xia Yingluo. “Xia Yingluo, since we’re cla.s.smates, don’t blame me for not reminding you, but you shouldn’t have too bad a taste when looking for a ‘boyfriend’. You stayed out all night and even broke into the cla.s.sroom forcefully, but you still have to be kicked out by the bodyguard. Why go through all the trouble?”
“Haha, it’s so funny.” Zhu Zhu and the rest laughed.
Xia Yingluo raised her chin slightly. “Not everyone is as despicable as you think.” The man in front of her was her brother and not some messy sugar daddy. But she just didn’t bother to explain too much to them, did they deserve that?
Teacher Qian really instructed some people to call the security.
Li Rui stood still. He guarded Xia Yingluo and Jin Ling’er and confronted the rest.
Jin Ling’er was worried and whispered to Xia Yingluo, “Let’s go, let’s not quarrel with them. It’ll be such an ugly scene to be chased out.”
Xia Yingluo also whispered, “Have some guts, watch how we kill them.”
Jin Ling’er was speechless, and while waiting uneasily, the cla.s.sroom door finally opened.
Everyone turned to look. Jiang Bilian smiled and said, “Since you’re not willing to leave, don’t blame the security guards—” Before she could finish, her words came to an end and she watched in astonishment as a man came in, step by step.
The man wore a dark suit with a delicate and s.h.i.+ny crocodile leather briefcase in his hand. He was well-dressed and politely entered the cla.s.sroom. “It’s lively here.”
Li Rui put his hands in his trouser pockets. “Isn’t it very lively? Who are you?”
Before the man could answer, Teacher Qian said aloud in a trembling voice, “Chu, President Chu?” How could she not have thought that the person who came in would be the most trusted confidant around the Chairman Pei Ziheng, the man who could cover the sky with his hand, Chu Chen? What was he doing here? Was it coincidental or purposely? If it was intentional…
Teacher Qian had an ominous premonition in her heart. How could this man make Chu Chen come to him?
Chu Chen didn’t pay attention to Teacher Qian. He first glanced at Xia Yingluo and smiled. “We meet again.”
His kind att.i.tude towards Xia Yingluo shocked many people. Oh my G.o.d, what was going on? How could Chu Chen, Imperial’s real power, be so polite to a little trainee? Only Jiang Bilian knew the inside story. At the engagement banquet of Pei Yan and Zhao Yixuan, Pei Ziheng had taken a fancy to Xia Yingluo. After returning, she had concealed the information from the others and hence, they didn’t know much.
Xia Yingluo smiled when she saw him. “Uncle Chu, ask after Uncle Pei on my behalf.”
Chu Chen nodded calmly. “He’s fine.”
Everyone at the scene was shocked. What did Xia Yingluo call Pei Ziheng?! Uncle Pei?!
When did she get close to Imperial’s highest power?!
For a moment, many uncertain eyes moved between the two.
Li Rui coughed and lectured Xia Yingluo unhappily. “Why are you asking after him? Be careful I don’t lecture you later.”
Xia Yingluo shrank her neck in guilty conscience and whispered, “You only know how to scare me.” It was well known that her father hated Pei Ziheng. If he knew that she was so polite to Pei Ziheng, she might really be beaten.
Li Rui grinned at her.
Chu Chen turned to look at him, his eyes calm and deep. “Don’t forget whose land you’re on now, Second Young Master Li.”
Everyone in the cla.s.sroom suddenly realized that this young man who had kept protecting Xia Yingluo was Second Young Master Li, but who was that? In the end, it was Teacher Qian who was well-informed. At the mention of the surname Li, the first thing that came to mind was Skyart’s Li Family. “You, you are the second son of Skyart, Li Rui!” She exclaimed, remembering that she had seen Li Rui on the news before. He looked exactly the same!
Li Rui looked at her mockingly. “You remember? Sadly, it’s too late.” The thief cries thief first, and he said to Chu Chen, “Imperial’s employee’s discipline is getting more and more lax. I don’t think it’ll be long before it merges with Skyart if this goes on. Mr. Chu, why have you come today?”
Chu Chen really wanted to throw him out.
He had been working nearby today, and remembered that Xia Ling’s daughter had been missing for several days. He didn’t know how it was going, so he had come to the training camp to find the princ.i.p.al.
