The Rebirth of the Legendary King
If You Have Enough Guts
Biology lessons are the best nap time for Yuan. Yet during the lesson, he did not even sleep without Ling's warning. He chose to see the man beside him.
Ling looked forward with his chin up. He plays pen in his right hand. Yuan had never seen someone turn the pen so fantastically.
A moment later, Ling stopped. He opened the pen lid and wrote something on white paper. After that, he stuffed the paper into a pile of books.
He looked at Yuan and laughed. "Project L?" ling asked while showing the paper he had taken.
"Is this worth mentioning as a project? How could he be so confident showing this to the Shadow City people?" asked Ling in a low voice. Almost like a mutter.
However, Yuan still heard it. "Ling, don't say that if you're with someone else. It was Project L that Wuzhou had created together with the Lu Company. I know you're disappointed by your breakup, but I beg you not to do stupid things" Yuan warned.
Upon hearing that, his cold smile slowly faded away.
A mere Project L could actually make the Lu Family break off the engagement with the Chen Family. It also made most of the noble families to be on the Lu Family's side.
If the Shadow City people saw this project, they would burst into laughter.
But actually this project still puts Chen Company in a disadvantaged position. Because they are not in Shadow City now.
The srek!
Ling shifted his chair. He got up and prepared to leave.
"Where are you going?" asked Yuan who stood up.
"Eat," replied Ling. He walked out of class to the cafe. At that moment Yuan only realized that the class was over and they could rest. He was so focused on watching Ling that no matter the time.
Upon arriving at the cafe, Yuan paused for a moment.
"Why?" asked Ling looking at him in wonder.
"Can't you eat in a normal place?" tanya Yuan hesitated.
At Guxian Middle School, there is a public canteen that anyone can go to, because the price of food there is affordable. There is also a cafe that is usually only visited by rich children, because the price of food is sky high. Most rich kids eat there just to fulfill prestige.
"Just calm down" Ling pulled out a triangular card. He showed it to Yuan.
Yuan who saw him glared. He forgot that Ling was a young master.
"But ...," said Yuan.
"Nothing but but. Quick in!" liam said from behind while pushing Yuan into the cafe. When he saw Ling and Yuan earlier, he immediately came to them.
The cafe is white and chocolate. The atmosphere here is quite crowded. When Yuan came in, the person at the cafe made it into the spotlight. He was embarrassed.
"I've ordered three sets of food" Liam said. They sat three by the window. Right next to Wuzhou's desk.
Although the atmosphere of the cafe is quite noisy, but they sit separately in groups. So no one can eavesdrop on each other's conversations. Including the man near Wuzhou who spoke in a whisper.
But because Ling's cultivation level was already high, his five senses were more sensitive than ordinary people. He could hear the chatter on Wuzhou's desk.
At first he did not want to respond because they only talked about their fellow men. Just a young labil's chat. But suddenly he got up. He slammed his chopsticks.
Wuzhou sat next to the glasses guy. They chatted, "Fruit will not fall far from the tree. Their whole family is shameless. They knew that Miss Lu Yan liked Wuzhou. Yet they had instead snatched Lu Yan from you! He really learned from his mother. Madam Chen and Mister Luo were also betrothed. The Chen Family said that their reputation was higher, so the Luo Family had to accept the engagement. I've never seen anyone as shameless as that before. Mr. Luo couldn't possibly like such a woman."
"Fu Zhu," a man's voice sounded next to him.
Although the sound was soft, it still made Fu Zhu stop the chatter. As he lifted his head, his eyes met a pair of pitch-black eyes that were staring at him coldly.
"I think all of Wuzhou's friends are wise. But apparently there are also those who like to talk carelessly like you. Is your mouth in the back?" now Ling said coldly.
He put one hand in his pocket, while the other took a plate containing noodles that he was about to eat earlier. Instantly, he poured the noodles onto Fu Zhu's head.
Everyone looked at him in shock. The atmosphere turned tense. That commotion is already the center of attention in the cafe now.
"Sister, what .... What are you doing?" ask Wuzhou who first realized.
Ling looked at Wuzhou. He gave her an ice-cold smile, then said, "Don't you see I'm teaching someone ethics lessons?"
He threw an empty plate at the table. He slightly rolled up his sleeve.
"Young Master Fu, you can vilify me in the back at any time. If you're not satisfied, you can challenge me directly. Even though I know you can't win" Ling said coldly.
"But ..," he reached out and grabbed Fu Zhu's cheek. "Who gave you the courage to vilify my mother?"
Fu Zhu who was frightened, ventured a little. He tried to say clearly, "I'm telling you the facts. Your mother used her power to marry someone else. Who do you think you are without the Chen Family?"
Now Ling turned his gaze towards Wuzhou. He threw his hand from Fu Zhu's cheek.
"You and your father are unique. Maybe your mother too" said Ling, who Wuzhou did not understand.
What does it mean by the word 'mother'. Isn't her mother her mother too? inner Wuzhou.
"Why don't you talk about how to develop the Luo Company despite having a little money? Is it true that such little money can make Luo Company this big? Are the items and clothes you've been wearing all this time not from the Chen Family? You're using it all blatantly. And how can you be so honorable at the same time? As for my Mother and your Mother, only Luo Feng knew the truth. If you're so good, stop using money from the Chen Family" Ling said. His voice was not too loud, but everyone in the cafe could hear him. They all fell silent.
He took the tissue on the table and wiped his dirty hands. He lowered his head.
"I'll give you a suggestion. If you're not content to vilify me from behind, you can come straight to me" Ling said, throwing a tissue into the trash.
"But that's if you guys have enough guts," he raised his head and smiled dismissively.
"Do you understand?" ask Ling. He swept his eyes across the cafe. As his eyes met Wuzhou's eyes, he sharpened his gaze.
