Chapter 140: Getting Exposed (2)
Translator: Guy Gone Bad
“Just die if you want. It’s better that you die!” said Zheng Xuan, with dense hatred burning in his eyes.
Looking at Zheng Xuan’s behavior, Su Rong felt like his head was exploding. The word “Realm” kept ringing in his head. And he thought that he remembered something dimly.
Seeing Zheng Xuan was trying to kill Xu Zihan, some teachers who were among the crowd watching the drama finally couldn’t take it and lend a hand. Though most teachers hated Xu Zihan for his tyrannizing in the department, it would be a crime to get someone killed in their department.
“Zheng Xuan, let go of Xu Zihan. Whatever it is between the two of you, you can talk it through. Don’t forget you are in school now.” A male teacher grasped Zheng Xuan’s hand.
On hearing the teacher’s words, Zheng Xuan slowly loosened his hand. He gave Xu Zihan a look full of hatred and then walked away.
Seeing such a scene, Mo Fei and Mo Yi who were among the crowd were both stunned.
“Yiyi, I just saw Zheng Xuan pinch Xu Zihan’s neck. Did I see it wrong or there is something with my eyes?” Mo Fei blinked his eyes, trying to see more clearly.
Mo Yi said with a flat tone, “Nah, they really fell out.”
Mo Fei shook his head and said with emotions, “This is life! Always so capricious!”
Those students around all looked at Xu Zihan gloatingly.
Though the conversation between Zheng Xuan and Xu Zihan was fragmentary, it couldn’t stop those students from complementing it in their heads. Most students had guessed that Zheng Xuan should have fallen for that guy in the Realm but took Xu Zihan as him by mistake.
Xu Zihan pressed his chest, head hanging down. Facing those people’s eyes with disdain, Xu ZIhan wished that he could dig a hole and hide in it.
That year, Xu Zihan indeed had a quoto.
But Xu Zihan didn’t want to go since it was too dangerous in there.
But if he didn’t go, someone from their Xu Family had to. So Xiao Mei took Xu Zihan’s half-blooded b.a.s.t.a.r.d brother Xu Ziyu as his scapegoat. Xu Zihan and Xu ZiyuZiyu both looked like their father. So no one ever doubted it.
Xiao Mei thought Xu Ziyu could never come back. But to her surprise, Xu Ziyu survived and came back in whole piece. And those elders even wrote Xu Ziyu’s name in the family tree trying to acknowledge his ident.i.ty.
Xiao Mei couldn’t bear to see something that should have belonged to her own son get stolen. So she set up Xu Ziyu and got him expelled out of the family.
After Xu Ziyu got driven out of the family, Xiao Mei had sent someone to check on him. He had been leading a miserable life. But since some elders were eyeing on Xiao Mei, she dared not do other things and just let him go. Soon enough, Xiao Mei already forgot there was even this person in the world.
Three years ago, Zheng Xuan appeared in Xu Family and firmly claimed that Xu Zihan was his life partner. After making some oblique references Xiao Mei knew that Zheng Xuan and Xu Ziyu had known each other in the Realm.
At that time, Xu Ziyu had already disappeared, besides, the lord of Xu Family Xu Qing also didn’t want Xu Ziyu to come back again. After all, Xu Ziyu was not his favored son. He wasn’t sure what kind of feeling his son Xu Ziyu was holding against him. In order to fawn upon Zheng Xuan, the whole Xu family directed this ‘Racc.o.o.n for a Prince story’.
At the beginning, Xu Zihan had always been acting gingerly for fear that his ident.i.ty would be exposed, and he even often woke up in a nightmare.
However, after a few months, Xu Zihan found that Zheng Xuan was a bit nerdy and easy to fool. So he became bolder and bolder.
Since Xu Ziyu was a b.a.s.t.a.r.d, he was like an invisible man in this family, so few people knew his presence.
After Xiao Mei and Xu Qing got rid of those who knew Xu Ziyu’s presence, Xu Zihan became much relieved, and of course, much bolder.
Zheng Xuan was all obedient to Xu Zihan. As time pa.s.sed, Xu Zihan started to bear the thought that even if the one in the Realm was not him, Zheng Xuan would still love him as always. So he was no longer acting so gingerly before Zheng Xuan and even became picky on him.
Xu Zihan gritted his teeth. Watching Zheng Xuan’s walking away, he only felt not reconciled in his heart. He wouldn’t give up so easily! He couldn’t believe Zheng Xuan would be so cruel to him. Even if he was not that G.o.dd.a.m.n Seven, they had known each other for three years! Three years’ relations.h.i.+p! But Zheng Xuan didn’t give it a s.h.i.+t and even tried to strangle him to death!
“No wonder Zheng Xuan has behaving so weird and was so good to Xu Zihan without any reason. So he mistook him as someone else!”
“Seeing from Childe Zheng’s posture, it seems he really suffered.”
“Didn’t you hear what he said? Three whole years! Except taking advantage of Zheng Xuan, what has Xu Zihan done for him? I was wondering why Childe Zheng was so into him. Now everything is clear.”
“Hum! He is a liar and still so high-key everyday. Now he is so dead.”
“I heard Zheng Xuan was only looking for someone in the Realm. I guess that the real one has appeared.”
…
Those people were talking and gossiping loudly, as if they were afraid Xu Zihan could not hear it. With those mocking words coming into his ears, Xu Zihan only felt his face burning hot, and he then walked away embarra.s.sedly. Those students who had been close to Xu Zihan also avoided him like he was G.o.d of Plague.
Lin Feiyu looked at Xu Zihan, gloating in his heart. He had always been wondering how Zheng Xuan would have fallen for him. So this was the truth!
