Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.

Dr. Zhao braced himself and mentally prepared himself before going home.

She nervously braced herself for the wrath of her younger brother, who was already in a bad mood due to his delayed doctoral studies, for her extravagant lifestyle.

But I didn't expect that they had already gone to bed early.

In the living room sat a large durian with a thick skin and a small filling, looking as if it had just been cut from a tree.

Dr. Zhao knelt on the durian, feeling utterly miserable, and cursed his wicked childhood friend in his heart.

They completely forgot that all of this was caused by their own foul mouth.

Xie Junfei had a good night's sleep, and when she woke up, her sixth brother took her to school.

As soon as I entered the sports field, Zhu Lili rushed into my arms.

Zhu Lili tugged at her arm, her eyes gleaming with a thirst for gossip:

"Baby, I heard that Qin Wanwan drugged Qin Yu'er yesterday?"

Xie Junfei found it strange:

"This happened this afternoon. Didn't you have an online interview this afternoon? How did you know?"

Zhu Lili exclaimed excitedly:

"The school administration just issued a notice of expulsion for Qin Wanwan, saying it was because of her moral depravity!"

"Yesterday, Qin Yu'er had another allergic reaction and fainted on the sports field. Then the police took Qin Wanwan away!"

"It's all over the school now! They're saying that Qin Wanwan poisoned Qin Yu'er in order to take her place in the Qin family!"

Xie Junfei was both amused and exasperated by the increasingly believable rumors.

But Zhu Lili was tight-lipped, so Xie Junfei simply told her what he had seen in the monitoring room yesterday afternoon.

After hearing this, Zhu Lili gritted her teeth:

"I knew it! How could that lackey Qin Wanwan possibly have the guts to drug Qin Yu'er!"

"No wonder they're sisters, they're both wicked!"

"Now look what happened! They tried to steal a chicken but lost the rice instead. Now one of the sisters is in jail and the other in the ICU. They deserve it!"

Xie Junfei nodded and entered the sports field with Zhu Lili.

Huo Shen helped her cancel the next women's 3000-meter race.

Yesterday afternoon, the school leaders witnessed firsthand how much Huo Shen valued the students he was sponsoring.

Upon hearing that it was Huo Shen's instruction, they immediately notified the sports department to remove Xie Junfei's name.

Zhu Lili worked at the radio station, so she simply took Xie Junfei, who had no projects, to the radio station to enjoy the air conditioning.

Xie Junfei was enjoying his leisure time. The two were chatting and laughing as they walked to the door of the broadcasting room. Just as they were about to enter, they heard a sweet, coquettish female voice bursting into a tirade:

"Who does Xie Junfei think he is? Relying on his connections to climb the social ladder, he actually dares to target our family!"

"My sister is such a talented person, but because she sowed discord between Huo Shen and her piano playing hands were crippled!"

"That shameless vixen, I'll just wait until Huo Shen gets tired of her and dumps her, then I'll definitely take her dog's life!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Junfei, who was standing at the door, smiled.

I never imagined that I would one day be associated with a vixen.

Just as Zhu Lili was about to rush in and yell at someone, Xie Junfei stopped her.

She snorted coldly and said disdainfully:

What's the point of just talking?

"Look at me."

The next second, Xie Junfei casually tapped a few buttons on his phone, then casually pushed open the door.

The girl sitting on the sofa immediately sat up and looked at the person who had come in.

Xie Junfei leaned lazily against the doorframe, raising an eyebrow as she looked at the person inside:

"What kind of skill is it to curse someone behind their back? If you're so capable, curse them to my face."

Miss Mu was stunned on the spot.

But when I think of the way my sister's hands were covered in blood when she was carried back last night...

She instantly became enraged and started yelling and cursing at Xie Junfei:

"You little bitch, how dare you show your face in front of me!"

"You lowly bastard who flaunts your wealth and power, let's see how long you can keep up your arrogance!"

"Let me tell you, if our Mu family can't touch Huo Shen, do you think we can't touch a poor student like you with no background?"

"You better pray that you can cling to Huo Shen for a few more days, otherwise, once Huo Shen doesn't want you anymore, I guarantee I'll kill you!"

Upon hearing this, Xie Junfei immediately let out a cold laugh:

"So that's why you hate me. It turns out the musician who seduced Huo Shen in front of me last night was your sister."

"Don't blame me for not recognizing her. The dignified third young lady of the Mu family is dressed so provocatively, acting like she's serving people in a brothel. No one would guess that she comes from a scholarly family!"

Xie Junfei deliberately read the four characters "scholarly family" again, which immediately angered Miss Mu.

After all, everyone knows that the Mu family only started out last year, and he himself has been a student at Tiancheng Private School for less than a year.

They don't look like a family with a long history of scholarship at all.

This is clearly sarcasm, an insult that the Mu family are uncultured nouveau riche.

Miss Mu immediately got angry. She walked quickly to Xie Junfei and was about to hit him when Xie Junfei grabbed her wrist tightly.

Xie Junfei revealed a meaningful smile, but his tone was pitiful:

"Did you hear that, Uncle Huo? It's all because of you that I'm in trouble again."

"It's all your fault for insisting on dragging me to the shore to listen to the zither last night, making me a third wheel and ruining Miss Mu's good time with you."

"Now look what's happened, Miss Mu has come knocking on my door, I'm going to be in trouble again."

Xie Junfei made himself sound pitiful, but Zhu Lili, standing to the side, felt so sickened by the cheesy talk that she got goosebumps.

What else could this be but acting cute?

When did my turtle start talking so disgustingly?

Huo Shen on the other end of the phone, however, was quite taken with this.

He gestured to the vice president next to him, signaling the meeting to pause.

He then got up and quickly walked out of the conference room.

Once they reached the corridor, he spoke gently to Xie Junfei:

"Junfei, turn on the speakerphone, I'll talk to her."

Xie Junfei flung Miss Mu's wrist away and turned on speakerphone in front of her.

A deep, cold male voice came through the phone's speaker:

"Mu Qingqing, is that right?"

“What happened last night has nothing to do with Junfei. You don’t need to take your anger out on an innocent person.”

“Even if I was the only one listening to the piano on the shore last night, your sister would have ended up the same way.”

"Since you've chosen to listen to Huo Qi and arrange for people to deal with me, don't blame me for being impolite."

"Considering that you and Junfei were classmates for a year, I don't mind telling you some inside information in advance."

"The Mu family is about to go bankrupt, so you should go back and prepare as soon as possible."

After saying that, Xie Junfei turned off the speakerphone and hung up the phone.

Miss Mu, standing in front of her, was stunned.

Xie Junfei smiled and snapped his fingers at her:

"Did you hear that, Miss Mu, who is as precious as gold and jade?"

"Now, do you still want to cause me trouble?"

Under Xie Junfei's mocking gaze, Miss Mu fled in disarray with her little follower.

Watching their departing figures, she knew that this might be the last time she would see the Mu family at Tiancheng Private School.

Huo Shen is not a soft-hearted person.

Since he said the Mu family would go bankrupt, then the Mu family would inevitably face the result of having all its assets wiped out.

The point is not that the third young lady of the Mu family tried to seduce him, but that the Mu family "chose the wrong side," listened to the other members of the Huo family, and came to find someone to seduce him.

Huo Shen mentioned someone's name on the phone just now, and Xie Junfei knows who that person is.

"Huo Qi"

The only younger member of the Huo family besides Huo Shen is Huo Shen's cousin.

He fought Huo Shen for power but was defeated.

If that's the case, then forget it.

But he is ambitious and is still eyeing the Huo family, ready to replace Huo Shen at any time.

Even when Xie Junfei snatched the business from Huo Shen, Huo Qi contacted her, wanting to cooperate with the Qin family.

Xie Junfei has always acted with integrity and uprightness.

She looked down on the man for resorting to underhanded tactics to seize power, so she refused outright despite the objections of the Qin family elders.

Although the Qin family had some complaints about this, Xie Junfei was in charge at the time, so they had to let it go.

Looking at Huo Shen's attitude towards Huo Qi now, Xie Junfei feels that her choice at the time was correct.

My own arrogance actually saved my life.

Otherwise, if he had chosen to cooperate with Huo Qi and made an enemy of Huo Shen, things wouldn't be like this between him and Huo Shen now.
