Chapter 583: Chapter 579: Worried Now?

Chapter Five Hundred Seventy-Nine: Now You Worry?

While many students excitedly discussed the matter, some even excitedly pulled out their phones or other cameras, wanting to capture the scene and share it on Weibo. However, when their lenses focused on Fatty and the others on the ground, they prudently put their cameras away. Regardless of what Young Master Wang was doing, whether he suddenly had a mental breakdown or some other reason, he was still Young Master Wang.

If he found out you were taking his picture and posting it on Weibo, or even knew you were capturing their embarrassing moments, he might very well take revenge on you. Thus, these smart students thought it over and carefully put their cameras away, opting only to quietly watch the excitement.

As the scene became increasingly hot and exaggerated, watching the struggling and exceptionally embarrassed Fatty and others on the basketball court, faces of Wang Xiaoho and other youths couldn’t help but show a hint of concern, feeling increasingly uneasy.

Originally, they took some pleasure in seeing these people adhere to the bet, crawling here in humiliation. Especially seeing Xiao Yi and Situ Qingfeng forcing them to crawl obediently, it gave them an indescribable thrill.

At first, there indeed was that thrilling sensation, but as things grew bigger and more spectators gathered, almost surrounding the basketball court, their thrill began to vanish, replaced by a creeping worry.

The bigger the spectacle, it meant the greater the humiliation for Fatty, and they were the instigators of this whole affair...

They all started to worry about the future. Fatty Wang and his group of wealthy friends weren’t exactly forgiving folks...

But no matter how much they worried, it was too late. Now they had no power to stop or alter the events; telling them to stop crawling now wouldn’t restore the face they had already lost...

Xiao Yi stood in the middle of the crowd, maintaining a smile on his face. His gaze never left the group of young men, nor those like Wang Xiahu nearby. The changes in their expressions did not escape his eyes.

"What, now you start to worry?"

Seeing the increasingly worried expressions on their faces, Xiao Yi finally spoke up, his face wearing a sly smile.

"I..."

Wang Xiahu’s face turned red, somewhat nervously, wanting to say something but not knowing what to say.

His companions secretly thought, how could they not worry, you will walk away and it won’t matter to you, but we still have to continue here. Actually, this mess is all your fault. Originally, if they lost, they would just give up a PSP. If that had been the case, they could have enjoyed playing with the top-quality PSP, but now look at the situation...

At this moment, they had already forgotten the joy in their hearts when Xiao Yi first proposed the bet...

However, these were just the thoughts in the minds of the youths, and they dared not express them to Xiao Yi. They just silently bowed their heads, fiddling with their fingers, their gazes fixed on their own toes.

"Do you feel that this should be blamed on me?"

Xiao Yi’s gaze swept over the faces of the young lads and he suddenly smiled and said.

"No, Big Brother Xiao, please don’t say that. We were already happy that you came to help us. How could we blame you?"

Wang Xiahu blushed deeply, his tone somewhat agitated, "These bastards always bully others in school. This time, giving them a lesson is truly satisfying. Besides, this was a bet agreed upon, what more could they want, accepting the gamble and the loss?"

"Exactly, Big Brother Xiao, you misunderstood, how could we possibly..."

"Yes, Big Brother Xiao, how could we be such people..."

"......"

Xiaohu and his friends were also startled, not expecting Xiao Yi to seem like he possessed penetrating eyes that could see through their inner thoughts, they quickly started to defend themselves.

However, when they saw Xiao Yi’s half-smiling expression, their hearts sank involuntarily, and they quickly lowered their heads, not daring to look up at Xiao Yi, their voices also quieted down.

"It’s best if you don’t blame me."

Xiao Yi seemed oblivious to the abnormal expression on the students’ faces and showed a slight smile of relief. He smiled and then turned his gaze to Fatty Wang and the others who had already run off a great distance, suddenly changing the topic, "Seeing those kids’ situation, how do you feel now? Are you enjoying it?"

"This..."

On hearing Xiao Yi’s sudden question, everyone was stunned for a moment, watching Xiao Yi, not knowing the meaning behind his question. In an instant, they didn’t know how to answer and stammered.

"Before, didn’t it seem like you hated them very much, almost wishing you could devour them? Now, seeing them embarrass themselves, with so many bystanders, losing face to their grandma’s house, aren’t you happy?"

Xiao Yi looked at everyone, his face revealing a strange expression.

"I..."

Xiaohu and the young boys, hearing Xiao Yi’s words, suddenly turned even redder, their necks flushing, wanting to say something, but not knowing what to say.

"If I’m not mistaken, you are worried about retaliation? If I tell you that I will protect you, that with me here, they absolutely won’t, or rather, dare not retaliate against you, would you feel happy then?"

Xiao Yi suddenly said.

The young boys looked at Xiao Yi somewhat dumbfounded, then glanced at each other, unsure of what Xiao Yi meant, and whether his words were true. But involuntarily, their faces began to show a hint of contemplation, thinking if Xiao Yi was always there, they wouldn’t seek revenge, wondering whether they would indeed be happy.

But as they pondered, they realized that what had seemed a simple question, one that didn’t require thought, wasn’t so simple after all. Even if they needn’t worry about retaliation, watching the group of Fatties, they might not necessarily feel the happiness they imagined...

Watching the expressions on the young boys’ faces, Xiao Yi’s face gradually revealed a gentle smile, different from the previous one. This smile looked more amiable and approachable.

Or, to put it another way, it looked more like a person really smiling.
