My Pretty Campus Queen

Chapter 572: Retribution


Sea View First-class Luxury Villa Complex.

This is a wealthy residential area comparable to a luxury neighborhood for the rich. However, the difference is that the rich people here are extremely ostentatious, afraid that others might not know they are wealthy. They even compete with each other, afraid of being overshadowed.

The most significant status symbols are luxury cars and villas. It can be said that the luxury cars here almost gather all types from around the world, and they are all limited editions.

As for villas, each one is bigger and more luxurious than the last, creating a unique and exaggerated landscape here.

In a villa about the size of half a football field, the lights were bright. A man in red was covering his face and butt, crying to a middle-aged man.

"Dad, look, look at this, your son was beaten up by a brat, you have to stand up for me!"

The man in red was none other than Lao Guoji. After returning from Li Bingshuang's villa, though he was extremely scared, he couldn't swallow his anger once back home.

Moreover, just thinking about how the woman he fancied called someone else husband in front of him almost made him explode with rage!

The middle-aged man standing in front of him was about fifty, not very tall, but his eyes shone brightly, sending chills down one's spine. Perhaps due to years of hard work, his full head of silver hair gleamed under the lights.

This man was Lao Guoji's father, the chairman of the second-largest commercial group in the Capital City, Lao Group, Lao Shangshan.

Facing his disappointing son, Lao Shangshan was extremely frustrated. Yet, seeing him in such a pitiful state, he suppressed his anger and shouted, "You're incompetent, got robbed and beaten, it's all because you're not strong enough, don't blame anyone, go upstairs and sleep!"

Lao Guoji had never been beaten up before, and getting thrashed in front of Li Bingshuang made it unacceptable. Being beaten and having a woman stolen from him already made him irrational. This grudge must be avenged!

"Dad, are you really okay watching your son get beaten up? Look at my swollen face! Dad, aren't you going to do something?"

Lao Guoji cried while pointing at his face, "If you don't help me, no one will. My mom passed away early, if she were here, she'd certainly help me, boo hoo."

Sigh!

Lao Shangshan sighed deeply. Mentioning his wife brought a long-standing guilt to the surface of his heart. He patted Lao Guoji's shoulder, his voice softening, "First go upstairs, let the doctor check the wounds. I'll make some time tomorrow to take a look."

Hearing these words, Lao Guoji immediately saw hope, he was overjoyed. Indeed, bringing up his mom was effective!

Thinking again, damn it, getting beaten so badly, you'll pay for it tomorrow!

In his eyes, wild like those of a mad dog, he even saw Chen Tianlong kneeling before him begging for mercy!

After Lao Guoji went upstairs, a slim man approached Lao Shangshan's side and stood silently. This person was peculiar, never raising his head the whole time, and walked without making any noise, like a ghost.

"You, go check it out. Although my son may be in the wrong, I know some of his deeds outside. But he's still my son. Hitting people is wrong."

The last sentence left his mouth slowly, and by the time he finished speaking, the man called You was already gone.

Around five in the afternoon, Chen Tianlong drove back, then Li Bingshuang planned to go out for dinner, and the two of them went for a drive, enjoying the breeze and taking a stroll.

Actually, Chen Tianlong forgot one thing, which was meeting Fang Chuanting on the plane. They agreed to meet at the hotel, but Chen Tianlong forgot.

At this moment, the girl was angrily searching the streets for Chen Tianlong. Later, she learned Chen Tianlong had already left the hotel, but nobody knew where he went.

They drove around for a while, relaxed in the park, sitting on the grass, watching the sunset slowly descend.

"Chen Tianlong, what do you think is the purpose of living?"

Li Bingshuang suddenly felt a bit lost. She had worked so hard to accumulate huge wealth, but without someone worthy alongside her, willing to share, all this wealth was nothing but a passing cloud.

"Heh, some people live just to fight for pride, some live just to live, without a reason."

Chen Tianlong hadn't fully grasped it yet. After all, he was just a teenager, a nineteen-year-old, without the same depth of experience for such deep insights.

"What do you live for?" Li Bingshuang turned her face, smiled, and asked.

"Me…"

Chen Tianlong paused, shook his head, closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and said, "Initially, I lived to protect my sister and to carve out a territory for myself in South Sea City."

"And now?"

"Now, I live to see those around me live better, to live happily." Chen Tianlong turned to smile slightly, "Especially you, you must live well and live happily."

"Chen Tianlong…" For some unknown reason, hearing Chen Tianlong's simple concern, for a moment, Li Bingshuang felt like she had won the whole world.

"Chen Tianlong, if one day, I lose you, even if I conquer the world, I wouldn't be happy, do you understand what I mean?" Li Bingshuang didn't directly express her feelings, just said lightly.

"Heh… your journey is still long, while mine might end here."

Chen Tianlong smiled faintly, not pretending, but that was truly how it was. He had offended too many people. If one day, he couldn't hold on, he might fall.

"I don't care, if your journey ends here, I don't want to continue living." Li Bingshuang said firmly.

Chen Tianlong took a deep breath, quietly looked at the beautiful girl, gently embraced her, letting the breeze caress their faces, they both closed their eyes, enjoying this rare moment.

If he could see eternity in an instant, Chen Tianlong would want to glimpse his future. But everything ahead was uncertain; he wasn't that lucky, and could only keep striving and persisting.

Around seven in the evening, the two walked out of the park, driving towards the city center's Trend Plaza, which like South Sea City, offered various delicacies.

However, as the car passed through a quiet lane, Chen Tianlong suddenly sensed a warning of danger. His chest began to ache intensely.

Indeed, shortly after, a few cars appeared ahead. Chen Tianlong quickly tried to reverse, but saw in the rearview mirror two cars closing in.

If it were some practitioners, he might handle it, but against terrorists, he was powerless. He had not yet reached a state where he could freely avoid bullets or be invulnerable.
