Chapter 87

Translator: Eden

Lu Xiufan walked into the kitchen, stared at the back of the person who was still busying himself and said "Little Ze, come here"

Shang Ke turned, only to see Lu Xiufan's back as he walked away. He untied his apron and quickened his steps to catch up.

Upon entering the bedroom, Lu Xiufan put the chip that was in his hand on the table. His eyes darkened as he approached Shang Ke, seemingly trying to suppress his emotions. "Was it Yue Xuan?"

"What?"

"The people who attacked you, was that Yue Xuan's doing?" Lu Xiufan picked up the chip and asked again.

"I don't know." Shang Ke lowered his eyes and shifted his line of sight onto the chip.

"Why didn't you fight back from the start?" Lu Xiufan's voice carried traces of anger. Although the video didn't capture the fighting process, judging from the screams, Shang Ke must've taken care of them.

"They are nobles. It's unwise to simply hit them. They might cause trouble for you, sir."

Lu Xiufan's breathing paused, he tightened his fist and continued questioning, "Then why did you start fighting afterwards?"

Shang Ke calmly replied, "They broke my communicator and made it impossible for me pick up your call in time."

Lu Xiufan recalled that a few days ago when he tried to reach Shang Ke, the call suddenly ended. So it turns out, it was then, Shang Ke was humiliated by a bunch of people. If he didn't make the call, Shang Ke would've been.... Thinking about this, Lu Xiufan's expression turned ugly.

In order not to cause any trouble for him, Little Ze didn't bother about the humiliation he suffered at the hands of those people. Later, Shang Ke only started to strike back because he had missed his call. Lu Xiufan somewhat understood, in Little Ze's world, he is Little Ze's everything.

He firmly held onto Shang Ke's hand and resolutely said, "Little Ze, you listen to me, in the future, no matter who they are, you must fight back fiercely if they dare to bully you. You shouldn't have any misgivings about that. Even if it is the Queen herself, you don't have to hold back in times of danger.

"Alright," Shang Ke nodded.

Lu Xiufan pulled him into his arms, his mind still replaying the scenes from the video. He had a murderous look in his eyes.

There was some doubt in his heart. Yue Xuan was Yue Ze's younger brother. Even if their relationship wasn't good, Yue Ze had already become a covenantor and was unable to shake his position as the successor. Why was he still being so oppressive? First, he sent Yue Ze to the distribution center. Now, he still wants to find people to gang rape him! He was evil to this extent, it really made one boil with rage.

A few days later, several noteworthy things happened in the city. Some of the children of lower nobility had their scandals exposed one after another; being sexually involved with minors, organizing group gambling, acquiring contraband items etc. If these sort of things weren't exposed, nobles could still settle it with money. However, since this was done by Luo Xiufan, they could only give up and admit their wrongdoings. They just couldn't understand, why did Lu Xiufan suddenly care about such trivial matters?

Most likely, only the ones who were caught up in the matter knew what was really going on. The eight people who obstructed Shang Ke were all on the entertainment headlines, not one less.

Naturally, Yue Xuan, as the mastermind behind it all, couldn't escape the consequences. Not only was he forced to drop out of the capital university, he also ended up offending the nobles in the capital. Perhaps outsiders didn't know the inside story, but the matter spread quickly within the inner circle. Yue Xuan actually urged a bunch of ignorant and incompetent rich brats to provoke Lu Xiufan's man. He was simply not afraid of dying. Nevermind that, he just had to bring misfortune for other young nobles as well. They were afraid of this Lord's anger.
