Chapter 202: Zheng Haoyuan's News

~6 min read 1,148 words

Someone deliberately glanced at Lu Chi, and a buddy beside him nudged Lu Chi with his elbow, asking: "Brother Lu, that Qin Xue who had been following you all along—she's been beaten now. Do you not know what's going on?"

He had no interest.

Lu Chi now, aside from studying and working part-time, doesn't care about anything else.

Sometimes Lu Chi can't help glancing at Su Yun Jiao, but that's all he does, because he had already promised Lu Jingqing that he would never get close to Su Yun Jiao again.

Just then, Lu Chi couldn't help looking at Su Yun Jiao again.

Seeing that Su Yun Jiao and Zhou Tingting seemed to be on good terms, Lu Chi then lowered his head.

Perhaps without him, Su Yun Jiao could live better.

Zhou Tingting, hearing from other classmates that Qin Xue had been beaten, immediately thought that the person who hit Qin Xue must be Zheng Haoyuan, because Zheng Haoyuan's emotions seemed out of control last night, and after they left, they still didn't know how Qin Xue was.

Zhou Tingting immediately grabbed Su Yun Jiao's arm and asked: "Could it really be that Zheng Haoyuan hit her?"

Although I've only just met Zheng Haoyuan, he doesn't look like someone with a particularly violent temper, so how could he have beaten Qin Xue so badly that she had to go to the hospital?

Su Yun Jiao said: "I've already told you before that this person has a bad temper, unstable emotions, and especially likes domestic violence; maybe it's because Qin Xue lied to him yesterday, so Zheng Haoyuan beat her and sent her to the hospital."

Hearing Su Yun Jiao's words, Zhou Tingting's face darkened.

If it's really as Su Yun Jiao said, I'd rather die than marry Zheng Haoyuan; if I were to marry him in the future, I wouldn't even know how I'd be beaten.

"Brother, did you hear? Qin Xue has been beaten and sent to the hospital."

Zhou Tingting hoped her brother would understand her; just now Zhou Xian had also overheard the classmates' discussion and learned that Qin Xue had now been sent to the hospital.

But this matter might not necessarily be related to Zheng Haoyuan.

Zhou Xian pondered for a moment and said: "If Zheng Haoyuan really has violent tendencies, I will absolutely not allow you to marry into the Zheng family."

"I already investigated this last night while at home: Zheng Haoyuan, being an only child, is especially pampered, especially by Madam Zheng, who can be said to dote on her son."

"So Zheng Haoyuan has been spoiled from childhood, leaving him with serious flaws; whenever someone under him doesn't meet his expectations, he either beats or scolds them."

Su Yun Jiao then said everything she knew.

This made Zhou Tingting feel even more anxious; if Zheng Haoyuan is really like that, she would rather die than marry him.

Zhou Xian had also looked into Zheng Haoyuan for his sister's marriage, though he hadn't investigated as thoroughly as Su Yun Jiao; he certainly knew Zheng Haoyuan was an only child, otherwise his mother wouldn't have taken an interest in Zheng Haoyuan, the Zheng family's sole heir.

"Jiaojiao, where did you learn all this?"

The Zheng family cares greatly about its reputation; if there were such a scandal, they would absolutely not let it spread online, and relying solely on the internet you could never uncover such details.

Su Yun Jiao also knew she had said a bit too much, but in order to dispel Zhou Xian's doubts, she quickly said: "I also heard all this from Brother Jingqing; he knows many people, so he knows more; Brother Jingqing told me that Zheng Haoyuan's character isn't great, so I'm a bit worried."

Hearing Su Yun Jiao say that, Zhou Tingting became even more afraid; she took Su Yun Jiao's hand and said: "Anyway, I'd rather die than marry Zheng Haoyuan—this guy is no good at first glance, and he's already sent Qin Xue, whom I met for the first time, to the hospital; last night I even saw him holding Qin Xue's hand and kissing the back of her hand, capable of such cruelty toward someone he likes, let alone anyone else."

Su Yun Jiao also nodded along.

"Let me call Mom after class to ask; tonight Mom still wants you to meet Zheng Haoyuan and his family, but if this is true, I think there's no need to meet."

Just as Zhou Xian was about to put down his phone, a breaking news alert suddenly popped up on the screen.

Zhou Xian instantly saw the three characters 'Zheng Haoyuan'.

Upon seeing that name, Zhou Xian immediately opened the news.

The news headline, written by someone unknown, clearly stated with photos and videos that Zheng Haoyuan is one of the Four Young Masters of Hai Cheng, appearing on the surface as a charming, suave young master, but secretly harboring a serious violent tendency.

The photos and videos show Zheng Haoyuan assaulting workers, as well as some hostesses, including his frequent visits to places like the Night Club.

Moreover, some videos clearly show Zheng Haoyuan fooling around with some women.

Although many parts were mosaicked, one could still make out that it was Zheng Haoyuan's face, and these messages quickly attracted a large number of netizens who condemned his character.

Because he bore the title of 'noble young master of a wealthy family,' it was very eye-catching to ordinary people.

Who wouldn't be interested in a wealthy-family story?

Furthermore, because of his outstanding looks and perfect family, Zheng Haoyuan had attracted many female fans online, with many calling him a 'face fan' and joking that he was the domineering CEO protagonist of a novel come to life.

However, this domineering CEO probably has no halo left now.

Zhou Xian carefully read the report; not only were the photos and videos very clear, but it also seemed someone was behind the scenes fanning the flames, causing the article to instantly go viral across major online platforms in a short time.

"Jiaojiao, who did this?"

Zhou Xian looked at Su Yun Jiao.

In all of Hai Cheng, probably only Lu Jingqing could have done something to this extent.

Su Yun Jiao never expected Lu Jingqing to be this capable.

Lu Jingqing somehow managed to quickly gather all the evidence of Zheng Haoyuan's crimes and even spread it widely online.

Thus the Zhou family could absolutely not consider Zheng Haoyuan as a son-in-law.

"I... I think... it must have been Brother Jingqing helping me."

Su Yun Jiao stammered.

Zhou Tingting, however, hadn't expected Lu Jingqing to help her to this extent: "But... isn't he afraid of offending the Zheng family? The Zheng family is still quite powerful."

Su Yun Jiao also didn't know what to say, merely... Lu Jingqing had actually done this for her.
