At this point, Xu Qingqing quickly changed the subject and started asking Song Yi some questions about his studies, effectively keeping him from leaving.
Looking at Song Yi's struggling face, Xu Qingqing felt smug. She thought, "Humph, I don't believe I can't stump you."
Lu Chuanbai quickly arrived with his men. The local hooligan and Wang Pan's classmate were taken to an abandoned farmyard.
At this moment, both of them were tied up. The hooligan, in particular, looked ferocious.
"Who are you guys? Which gang do you belong to? Do you know the reputation of Brother Xin? You dare to tie me up here. You're all done for!"
One of Lu Chuanbai's men kicked him and said, "Shut up! We're here to arrest you."
Lu Chuanbai walked over slowly. His cold eyes scanned the two men's faces.
"Tell me how much you were involved in Xu Qingqing's incident. If you tell the truth now, I'll consider going easy on you."
The hooligan's eyes flickered slightly but quickly regained his composure. "I don't understand what you're talking about. Who are Xu Qingqing and Wang Qingqing? I know so many people. Do you want me to list them all for you?"
The man beside him kept cowering. He was about thirty years old and looked lecherous.
Lu Chuanbai gave a signal to his men.
His men immediately grabbed the lecherous man.
"Help! Help! What are you going to do? I'll call the police!"
The lecherous man, Wang Lei, struggled immediately, his body instinctively resisting.
Lu Chuanbai sneered. "Call the police? Sure. Go ahead. Then you can keep good company with Liu Zhuzi."
"Maybe you don't know yet. Liu Zhuzi has gone crazy in prison. The person who asked you to go after Xu Qingqing had already made preparations."
"Are you Wang Lei, Wang Pan's cousin? Do you think it was the person beside you or your cousin Wang Pan from Jiang University who drove Liu Zhuzi crazy?"
Wang Lei averted his eyes and didn't dare to answer Lu Chuanbai's question. But out of the corner of his eye, he couldn't help but glance at the hooligan.
Liu Zhuzi had actually gone crazy.
When his cousin asked them to do this, she hadn't even come back.
So Liu Zhuzi's madness must have been the doing of the hooligan, Zhao Xin.
But now that Zhao Xin was right beside him, he didn't dare to say a word.
Lu Chuanbai seemed to see through his thoughts and said, "If you can confess honestly, I can guarantee that the local hooligan here will be replaced."
"You don't have to be too scared. Although he is in a high position, there are many others who want to take his place."
"I'm giving you two a chance now. Whoever confesses first, I'll protect.
"As for the other one, he'll bear all my wrath."
Hearing Lu Chuanbai's words, even the hooligan, Zhao Xin, hesitated.
But before Zhao Xin could say anything, Wang Lei spilled the beans.
"This really doesn't have much to do with me. My cousin said she was bullied by this girl named Xu Qingqing at school. She knew that Xu Qingqing was in our village, so she asked me to contact Zhao Xin."
"I really don't know what deal Zhao Xin made with her or how much money was involved. I only took a 5,000-yuan kickback."
Wang Lei looked very aggrieved. He had only taken 5,000 yuan. How could he have run into such a big shot?
His cousin was really good at causing trouble.
Zhao Xin gave Wang Lei a look of annoyance.
Since Wang Lei had already sold him out, there was no point in keeping his mouth shut anymore.
"Yes, I was the one who asked Liu Zhuzi to do this. But I'm not that heartless. Liu Zhuzi isn't really crazy. He's just pretending."
"He knew that if he confessed me to the police, I wouldn't let him off. But if he didn't tell the truth, you'd keep putting pressure on the police. So he came up with this idea."
"That kid is useless in other aspects, but he's a great actor. That's why I chose him. I thought he could fool everyone by pretending to be crazy. I just didn't expect to run into such a tough opponent this time."
Hearing Zhao Xin's words, Wang Lei let out a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Liu Zhuzi was just pretending to be crazy. He had thought Zhao Xin had some magical potion that could drive someone crazy.
Zhao Xin looked at Lu Chuanbai. "Brother, I was blind this time. I shouldn't have done such a thing for the sake of 30,000 yuan. You decide how to deal with me."
Seeing that the two of them were quite honest, Lu Chuanbai's anger subsided a bit.
The real culprit was still Wang Pan.
"You took that dirty money. You have to give it back. Hand it directly to Miss Xu and let her decide what to do with it. Also, I can see that they need some help at the cemetery. Since you're the local hooligan, take your men and protect her."
"If anything happens to her during the process of excavating and restoring the cultural relics in the tomb, I'll hold you accountable."
These words were addressed to Zhao Xin, and he understood that Lu Chuanbai was asking him to act as Xu Qingqing's bodyguard to make amends.
"Brother, you can rest assured. I was blind before. With me around, no small-time thugs will be able to hurt Miss Xu."
Zhao Xin said confidently.
Lu Chuanbai nodded.
He chose Zhao Xin to protect Xu Qingqing because as a gangster, he knew better about the methods of other gangsters.
After dealing with these two men, Lu Chuanbai called his men in the city.
"Find someone and ruin Wang Pan."
"Yes."
On the other side.
Wang Pan was in a great mood as she put on makeup. Today was a social gathering among major universities. She was confident that she would gain another group of men who admired her.
It would be a waste if she didn't add a few more backup boyfriends and make more connections during her college years.
The whole dormitory was going to the gathering. When they arrived at the banquet, there were many handsome men and beautiful women. Wang Pan maintained an elegant smile and shuttled through the crowd.
At this moment, a few handsome men in the corner nodded to each other and then walked towards Wang Pan's dormitory.
"Beautiful ladies, would you like to sit at our table and play some games?"
The leading man actively invited the girls in Wang Pan's dormitory, but his eyes were fixed on Wang Pan.
He was very handsome with a height of 1.85 meters. He stood out from the crowd.
When this man invited Wang Pan, many girls around her cast envious looks at her.
This greatly satisfied Wang Pan's vanity.
She pretended to be shy and nodded. "Sure."
The boys walked in front, and the girls in the same dormitory surrounded Wang Pan and walked behind.
They said excitedly, "Panpan, it's all thanks to you. I can tell that the guy is probably interested in you."
"But handsome guys always hang out with other handsome guys. The guys around him are so handsome too."
"Yes, it's good that we came with you today, Panpan. Otherwise, these handsome guys wouldn't even notice us."
Hearing the compliments from her dorm mates, Wang Pan felt like she was back in her glory days. Her confidence soared.
