16: Chapter 16 Trouble is brewing
"Brother Feng, wait a second, I have something to tell you!"
As Young Master Bai Feng intended to leave, Lin Yu walked forward and pulled him aside.
"What is it?"
Young Master Bai Feng and Lin Yu had a pretty good relationship.
Especially since Young Master Bai Feng hadn't skimped on benefits for Lin Yu in his efforts to successfully woo Lin Chuge.
Seeing Lin Yu's mysterious expression, Young Master Bai Feng was a bit curious.
"Brother Feng, has my eldest sister been very cold to you lately?"
Lin Yu got straight to the point.
Seeing Young Master Bai Feng hesitate and nod, he continued: "Did you see that kid who was with my second sister just now? It's all because of him!"
"What?"
Young Master Bai Feng couldn't help but furrow his brows.
He had seen Lin Xiao earlier, but since Lin Xiao had gotten out of Lin Baixuan's car, he assumed it was a friend of Lin Baixuan's and hadn't paid any attention to him.
Now that he heard that kid actually had something to do with his fiancée, he was immediately displeased.
"Hey, Brother Feng, don't overthink it. That kid is my parents' own son they just brought back from the countryside!"
Lin Yu knew this kind of thing couldn't be hidden forever, so he didn't intend to cover it up.
"Chuge's biological younger brother?"
Young Master Bai Feng's expression softened slightly, "Then what did you mean by what you said just now?"
"Sigh, you don't know, ever since that kid came back, he's turned the house upside down... I saw him say something to my eldest sister the other day, and then she said she didn't want to deal with you anymore."
Lin Yu dumped everything on Lin Xiao.
He was just trying to frame him, never imagining that what he said had actually hit the mark.
Young Master Bai Feng believed Lin Yu's words completely and looked back at Lin Xiao, who was about to enter the door, his eyes filled with malice.
Lin Yu lowered his voice and said: "Brother Feng, I know you and my eldest sister have deep feelings. Don't worry, no matter what you need, I will definitely help you!"
Young Master Bai Feng withdrew his gaze and narrowed his eyes, "What do you want?"
"Heh, Brother Feng understands me!"
Lin Yu chuckled and explained, "It's just that they've found their own son, so they aren't as attentive to me as before, and as for pocket money..."
Young Master Bai Feng raised an eyebrow, "Don't worry, as long as I succeed with your sister, there will be plenty of benefits for you!"
"Then thanks in advance, Brother Feng!"
Lin Yu went back, happy.
Lin Xiao saw Lin Yu and Young Master Bai Feng whispering outside, and seeing Lin Yu return with such a radiant face, he knew they certainly hadn't been discussing anything good.
Most likely, they were plotting something against Lin Chuge again.
He just hoped Lin Chuge's "love-struck brain" wouldn't grow back.
Not long after, school started.
Lin Xiao had already notified the Counselor, Teacher Li, that he would be returning to class this semester.
Unfortunately, on the first day of school, the Lin family company happened to have a very important meeting.
As senior management, Lin Qingshan, Su Xiumei, and Lin Chuge simply couldn't get away.
This left Lin Qingshan and Su Xiumei feeling regretful for a long time that they couldn't send their biological son to school.
To compensate, they transferred a large sum of money to Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao still accepted it; since the Lin family company would go bankrupt later, there was no harm in him saving up more money for himself.
In the end, only Lin Baixuan, who was still on vacation, was responsible for taking Lin Xiao to school.
After all, it was university, and Lin Xiao didn't want to be like a child, having his sister accompany him everywhere.
After simply getting settled, he let Lin Baixuan leave.
But unexpectedly, before he could even tidy up the things in his dorm, trouble came knocking at the door.
"Lin Xiao! Come out!"
The person who came was a tall and sturdy The Boy.
He stood at the dormitory door like that, gesturing for Lin Xiao to come out without any courtesy.
Lin Xiao recalled for a long time and found that he didn't know this person at all, so he asked indifferently: "Is there something you want with me?"
"I told you to come out, so come out! Why so much nonsense!"
The Boy sneered, cracking his knuckles, "Don't force us brothers to go in and drag you out."
Lin Xiao realized that the visitors were ill-intentioned. He looked up at the camera in the dormitory, but still walked out.
As soon as he went out, he was forcefully grabbed by the shoulder by that The Boy.
Only then did Lin Xiao notice that there were quite a few other sturdy boys standing behind him.
They were all looking at him with malicious smiles.
After a brief thought, Lin Xiao guessed something.
But he still asked calmly: "I don't seem to know you guys. If you have something to say, just say it!"
"It doesn't matter if you don't know us, you will in a moment."
The Boy smiled sinisterly and dragged Lin Xiao downstairs.
Lin Xiao didn't resist and just followed them all the way to the small woods behind the dormitory.
Perhaps because boys often walked with their arms around each other's shoulders like this, the people passing by didn't notice anything unusual.
Seeing that there were fewer and fewer people around, and in the end, only the few of them were left in the woods, these boys stopped pretending and pushed Lin Xiao to the side.
"Kid, don't blame us. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for offending someone you shouldn't have!"
The leading The Boy chuckled and stepped forward to shove Lin Xiao's shoulder.
But the moment he raised his hand, his wrist was grabbed by Lin Xiao.
He wanted to break free, but found that Lin Xiao's hand was like iron pliers, impossible to shake!
Seeing this, the others immediately stepped forward to help.
Before they could get close, Lin Xiao twisted hard, and the hand of that The Boy was twisted behind his back at an eerie angle.
At the same time, he let out a scream.
"If you take another step forward, his hand will be ruined."
Lin Xiao said in a flat tone.
"Don't, don't move!"
The Boy was grimacing in pain, with beads of sweat the size of beans falling from his forehead.
He quickly begged for mercy: "Sorry, sorry, we are just taking people's money to solve problems for them, there's no need to make such a big scene!"
"Hmph!"
Lin Xiao threw his hand and pushed The Boy away.
He clapped his hands casually and turned to leave, "Open your eyes wider in the future. Don't disable yourself for a little bit of money."
In fact, the system in his mind had long warned him that Young Master Bai Feng would send people to cause him trouble.
He just didn't expect that, with Young Master Bai Feng's ability, he would only find a few thugs from the school.
It was too much of an underestimation of him!
Lin Xiao sneered.
But just at this moment, he suddenly felt a gust of wind by his ear.
He subconsciously turned his body, and a cold, glistening switchblade grazed past his face.
The person holding the knife was an inconspicuous The Boy who looked slightly thin among those sturdy people.
He saw the eyes of that The Boy filled with malice, and the corners of his mouth curled into a cold sneer.
That temperament was completely different from the others.
Only then did Lin Xiao realize that he had underestimated his opponent.
Young Master Bai Feng was not as stupid as he imagined, but rather, had a touch of cleverness.
Hiding someone who could actually kill among a group of school bullies meant that even if something went wrong, he could easily remain invisible.
