Chapter 501: Kind of interesting

Ling Xuejiu paused, stunned. Xiao Jie, this girl, actually used the word ’too’, which means, was she indirectly admitting that she was jealous? Without thinking, she pouted and said in irritation, "What’s it got to do with me? I don’t like him, so what’s there for me to be jealous of? As for you, Xiao Jie, since you like him so much, why don’t you just confess to him directly?"

"Confess?" Upon hearing these words, Li Mengjie’s face suddenly turned red.

"Hmm?" Ling Xuejiu had only spoken out of frustration, but upon seeing the rare blush of shyness on Li Mengjie’s face, she instantly felt a tinge of regret. Could it be that Xiao Jie really intended to confess her feelings to Leng Xuan?

But even if she did want to confess to Leng Xuan, what did that have to do with her?

She pouted, seeming rather wronged, and irritably turned her head away, picking up a book and starting to read, clearly no longer interested in continuing that topic with Li Mengjie.

"Crown Prince, Brother Wei." In a living room at the Imperial Cao Palace, a man in a suit approached the Crown Prince and after greeting him, he looked at Wei Li sitting beside him, hesitating to speak his mind.

Cao Shaoyi was holding a cup of coffee, slightly tilting his head to look at the man in the suit, then took a light sip of coffee before saying nonchalantly, "Wei Li is not an outsider. Just speak up if there’s something."

"Yes!" The man in the suit nodded and said, "Crown Prince, Lu Dabing is dead. And, your cousin Gao Xu has been arrested by the police!"

"What happened?" Cao Shaoyi frowned slightly.

The man in the suit explained, "Didn’t you instruct me to send someone to help Mr. Gao Xu deal with a girl with the surname Su?"

Cao Shaoyi hummed softly, without a word.

The man in the suit continued, "I sent Lu Dabing to help Mr. Gao Xu take care of the matter, but who would have thought that Gao Xu would then have Lu Dabing go to school to teach a senior high school student a lesson. That’s when things went south!"

Thereupon, the man in the suit recounted how Lu Dabing went to Tenglong High School to help Gao Xu take revenge on a senior student, only to be taught a lesson himself. Moreover, he accidentally revealed that Gao Xu had instructed him to commit vehicular assault. In the end, when Gao Xu tried to run over the senior student with his car, he ended up killing Lu Dabing instead.

The suit-clad man had gathered these details from Lu Dabing’s subordinates, so it was pretty much consistent with the actual events.

Upon learning that a high school student could be so formidable, Cao Shaoyi also became somewhat interested. However, he seemed quite indifferent about his cousin Gao Xu’s situation, as if he hardly cared at all, responding with a mere "oh" and then asking, "What’s the name of this high school student?"

"I think his name is Leng Xuan," said the man in the suit.

"Leng Xuan?" Cao Shaoyi’s brows furrowed. Why did that name sound familiar? Before he could say anything, Wei Li suddenly slapped his thigh and exclaimed, "What? Leng Xuan, his name is Leng Xuan?"

The man in the suit looked at Wei Li quizzically, wondering why he was so agitated, and tentatively asked, "Why, Brother Wei, you know this kid?"

"How could I not!" Wei Li blurted out angrily upon hearing it was Leng Xuan, cursing, "Damn it, it’s this kid who stole my girl."

Cao Shaoyi suddenly smiled faintly. He had been wondering where he had heard the name Leng Xuan before, and now, hearing his old classmate Wei Li mention it, it clicked. Hadn’t Wei Li asked him before to help teach a lesson to a student? And wasn’t that Leng Xuan? He then said, "Interesting."
