Chapter 190: Chapter 137: That What’s-His-Name, Pig Butt or Pig Ear

Approaching the Flying Machines, Shu Guohua stopped apprehensively. "Let’s walk."

Today’s events had exposed too many unsettling factors. With their safety unguaranteed, how could anyone not be terrified? Right now, anyone in the know would likely be cast in a shadow of dread just looking at a Flying Machine.

Shu Chao Yu pestered Shu Guohua’s secretary and special assistant, grinning. "Look at the two of you, all frail and weak. You look like you can’t carry or lift a thing. What girl is going to like that? I know a good martial arts gym. I’ll get you two membership cards so you can go practice when you have time."

Shu Guohua shot him a sidelong glance. "You can still laugh!"

"Life is a chaotic mess, but we still have to live it," Shu Chao Yu laughed carelessly. "Yaoyao isn’t even scared, so what are you afraid of?"

Shu Guohua snapped in annoyance, "Aren’t you just afraid something might happen to me? That’s why you want them to learn combat!"

Shu Chao Yu touched the tip of his nose, looking a bit sheepish.

Shu Guohua snorted heavily and said with the resolve of one facing death, "If something really happens to me, don’t hesitate—go and wipe out the Austin family entirely!"

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got, feeling they had let the Austin family off too easily today. He stopped abruptly. "No, I have to go back and find His Majesty! We can’t just let this slide!"

He turned and started walking back toward the Imperial Palace.

Shu Chao Yu stopped him, letting out an exasperated, "Brother. Actually... Yaoyao and I have already achieved our goal."

Shu Guohua waited for him to continue.

Shu Chao Yu turned slightly serious.

"Although we didn’t turn the Austin family into a public enemy of the entire Federation, today’s incident has already shaken the district commanders’ trust in them.

"Secrets can’t stay hidden forever. I believe the military districts and command centers of every region will get the news. From now on, the Austin family’s every move will be highly scrutinized."

Hearing this, Shu Guohua’s expression softened slightly. He looked at Shu Yao. "Was this your plan?"

"Ah... not exactly." Shu Yao glanced toward the Imperial Palace, sounding a bit absentminded. "I just adapted to the situation." Withdrawing her gaze, she noticed the suspicious looks in her two uncles’ eyes and laughed. "I’m not crazy enough to provoke a tech giant like the Austin family for no reason."

Shu Guohua seemed convinced, but Shu Chao Yu was still half-skeptical.

To clarify today’s events, Shu Yao told her older uncle about her feud with Lin Zhenxiang and Edgar. It was highly likely that Juelton and Antoine had orchestrated today’s incident to stand up for those two.

However, regarding the video she had presented publicly today, Shu Guohua and Shu Chao Yu still had many questions. On that point, Shu Yao was unwilling to explain further.

After bringing Shu Guohua up to speed, Shu Yao took her younger uncle’s Flying Machine to Imperial High School. This was at her strong insistence.

Currently, she didn’t know how much Shu Xin knew about today’s events. At the very least, she could create the illusion that things were fine, so when Shu Xin learned she had returned to school, she would realize the situation wasn’t too serious. Then her mother naturally wouldn’t worry too much.

Stepping into Class One’s classroom just as the dismissal bell rang, Shu Yao walked up to Lin Zhenxiang. The redness and swelling around Lin Zhenxiang’s eyes couldn’t hide her astonishment.

"Are you surprised?" Shu Yao raised an eyebrow. "That guy named Pig Butt or Pig Ear or whatever..."

Edgar asked nervously, "What happened to Juelton?"

Shu Yao cast a faint glance at him before looking back at Lin Zhenxiang, informing her with a half-smile:

"Him? He was expelled from Imperial University for causing trouble off-campus. He was removed from the Austin family for stealing a Mecha. And he was thrown into the interstellar prison for attempted murder."

Edgar muttered in disbelief, "Impossible! That’s impossible..."

"And that An... Antoine." Shu Yao astutely noticed Lin Zhenxiang’s breath catch when she mentioned the name. "Though he didn’t receive severe punishment—which really pisses me off, by the way—he’ll be monitored twenty-four hours a day, indefinitely. Including when he uses the bathroom and takes a shower."

Lin Zhenxiang’s face turned a sickly pale, and the tears that had instantly welled up in her eyes rolled down her cheeks. She choked back a sob and whispered, "Sister Shu, is there some misunderstanding between us...?"

"You miserable piece of work—" Shu Yao let out a mocking laugh. "Save your tears to cry to the prosecutor."

Edgar panicked. "Juelton, Mr. Antoine..."

He immediately called Juelton. However, because the other party had committed serious crimes, he had been stripped of the right to use his Light Brain. His account was canceled, and his information was sealed.

Unable to contact Juelton, Edgar frantically called Antoine, only to have his calls repeatedly rejected...

He looked at Shu Yao in disbelief, denying everything she had said. "You’re lying! You’re lying, right?!" His voice was filled with unease.

Shu Yao relayed a message with full "goodwill": "That son of a bitch named Pig Ear said a guy named Edgar was the weakest trash in the Austin family."

Edgar froze, his expression turning dazed.

Lin Zhenxiang stared at the smug Shu Yao with gloomy eyes.

"Thanks to you guys, I’m rich now." Shu Yao spoke in a flaunting tone. "The Austin Family Master personally transferred a massive sum into my account. If anything like this happens again in the future, please remember to keep me in mind~ I’ll work hard to hone my scamming skills so you won’t find any flaws. Hehe~"

Shu Yao gave a playful laugh, waved her hand daintily, and skipped away adorably.

Just as he finished reading a message from the Empress, a stunned You Dan saw the very person mentioned in the text skipping merrily out of Class One’s classroom.

Empress Yudola: [Juelton, imprisoned. Antoine has also been sanctioned. Prosecutors are on their way to interrogate Edgar. Be nicer to Shu Yao at your school.]

Seeing Shu Yao wave her hand, You Dan put away his Light Brain, glanced at Class One’s classroom, and asked in confusion:

"Did you transfer classes?"

"No."

"Then why were you in Class One?"

Shu Yao began doing a little victory dance to her own beat, chanting, "BOOM-TSS, BOOM-TSS, BOOM-TSS-TSS~"

You Dan: "..."
