Chapter 98: Red Card Warning

Class A.

Jin Shaoyu escorted Ling Wu to the classroom entrance. At this moment, there was a commotion outside the corridor. The students in Class A heard the stir and looked toward the door, only to see two major influential figures walking side by side.

Shen Zhaojue also looked at them, his gaze like a torch.

How did they come together?

Wei Ranxu didn't seem to have much of a reaction, continuing to lay his head down to sleep, while Jin Bei and Ming Tan had different expressions; Jin Bei was gripping his pen tightly.

Not knowing what he was thinking.

Seeing Jin Shaoyu appear, Ming Tan remembered that in the original manga, among the F4, Jing Du was cold and heartless, Yin Huaiyu was a smiling tiger, and Yu Shixue was ruthless.

Only Jin Shaoyu was sharp-tongued but soft-hearted, the most normal one.

Ming Tan gave up on currying favor with Qi Yu and immediately decided to switch his target for conquest to Jin Shaoyu.

"Wow, it's Young Master Jin!"

"Is Young Master Jin... personally escorting Ling Wu to school?"

"Are they actually this close?"

"Good thing I didn't skip class; I can see two great divine beauties, I'm so happy again."

"Ling Wu isn't ignored like the rumors say at all. I heard that when Young Master Wei pushed Ling Wu into the water before, Young Master Jin took action directly. I think Shen Zhaojue won't dare to trouble Ling Wu anymore."

"Isn't Jin Bei in our class? Is he on good terms with Young Master Jin and the others?"

Jin Shaoyu listened to the discussions by his ears, his brows and eyes revealing a sense of pleasure. He had originally intended to leave after escorting Ling Wu to the door, but now he changed his mind.

He rested one hand on Ling Wu's shoulder, pushing him toward the inside of the classroom, and asked him with an unchanging expression: "Where is your seat?"

Ling Wu pointed over: "Over there."

He lowered his voice: "What do you want to do?"

Jin Shaoyu also lowered his voice: "Come to see the monsters and ghosts in your class."

Walking to Ling Wu's seat, he looked at Qi Yu with an unkind gaze, one hand in his pocket, and said with great disapproval: "Who let you sit with a Special Student?"

【Young Master Jin: Is someone ostracizing you?】

【Yo... is the villain seeing his brother-in-law?】

【Young Master Jin opens his eyes only to equally crush everyone except his brother.】

Qi Yu raised his eyes to look at them and heard Ling Wu say: "I wanted to sit with Qi Yu myself."

Jin Shaoyu frowned: "This seat is no good, I can help you change seats."

"It's quite good." Ling Wu refused: "I'm already used to it."

A male voice came abruptly from behind: "Is the Academy your home? You say change seats and you change seats, where did you get such great privileges?"

The atmosphere inside the Class A classroom instantly stagnated.

Who has such big guts?

Daring to speak to Jin Shaoyu like that.

Jin Shaoyu turned his body in response, glancing sideways at Jin Bei as if he had found something amusing: "Yo, I wondered who it was, so you're here too, you bastard."

Bastard?

The surroundings were in an uproar.

"Isn't Jin Bei on the Jin Family genealogy? Why does Young Master Jin call him a bastard?"

"What else could it be for? His birth mother is of low status."

"Really? I haven't heard that."

Jin Bei listened to the surrounding discussions, his face gloomy. He sat in his seat, clenching his pale fists, wanting to tear off Jin Shaoyu's face—which had always been aloof—and stomp it into the ground.

He then remembered what Jin Liangjin had instructed, and couldn't help but let out a breath of relief in his heart. What are you acting so arrogant for? It won't be long before I teach you a harsh lesson and send you down to keep your short-lived mother company.

Jin Bei still didn't speak.

But Ming Tan, sitting nearby, couldn't watch anymore. Recalling the original owner's actions, he stood up and blocked in front of Jin Bei: "Jin Shaoyu, it's wrong for you to speak like that. Jin Bei is not a bastard, he is your brother."

【Sobbing... there aren't many people as kind-hearted and impartial as our baby Ming Tan. Jin Bei must have been warmed in his heart, right.】

【That's right, that's it, worthy of being the protagonist of this Mary Sue manga!】

【According to the tropes, Jin Shaoyu will definitely be attracted by Ming Tan's unique 'white lotus' temperament, then gradually be intrigued, and finally be crazy for him, obsessed with him, and crash into a wall for him!】

【Interesting/.】

【Man, you have successfully attracted Young Master Jin's attention.】

【Ming Tan is simply an angel.】

However, the discussions of the students in Class A were completely different from the barrage comments:

"No, who does he think he is? Daring to talk to Young Master Jin like that."

"Sure enough, God is fair. While closing a door for you, He also uses the door to clamp your brain. This Special Student is like his brain has been clamped."

"Young Master Jin has a bad temper. This Special Student is probably done for; he'll definitely be thrown to the Student Council for a lesson."

"I still remember the last time the Rights Protection Department of the Student Council took action to teach a Special Student a lesson, they stripped the person naked and threw them into the water to soak for two hours."

"He was just a lowly Special Student to begin with, can't he just keep his tail tucked? He doesn't even look at who the person opposite him is, yet he dares to stand up and act tough, thinking he's a savior."

Jin Bei clearly didn't expect Ming Tan to be this stupid.

He didn't feel anything, though; with someone else to bear the anger for him, he only needed to watch from the sidelines.

Ming Tan was completely unaware that there was a problem with his words. He looked at the gaze Jin Shaoyu placed on him and couldn't help but feel affirmed. Jin Shaoyu was looking at him; sure enough, his words just now must have attracted his attention.

He could also win the favor of the F4.

Jin Shaoyu's eyes scrutinized him, his long, narrow eyes half-closed. His demeanor was extremely lazy, the corners of his mouth slightly raised in a playful smile. He sat half-way on the desk, his left leg slightly bent and his right foot on the ground, one hand in his pocket, and he leaned forward to ask him: "Say what you just said one more time."

Ming Tan felt a chill rise in his heart from being stared at, but he still gathered his courage and said: "You... it's wrong for you to speak like that. Didn't your mother teach you manners? Jin Bei is not a bastard, he is your brother."

"Heh."

A scoff from Jin Shaoyu sounded in his ear.

"Little brother?"

A mistress's son dares to call himself his little brother?

Jin Shaoyu kicked Jin Bei's desk: "Did you hear that? They're telling you to call them brother. Do you dare to?"

Jin Bei met those angry eyes; he did not dare to call out.

Jin Shaoyu said coldly: "Coward."

"It really has been a long time since anyone could touch my taboo." Jin Shaoyu walked toward him, his gaze condescending, as if looking at a pile of rotting trash: "Should I count this as your good luck, or should I say you don't know the immensity of heaven and earth?"

The barrage realized something was wrong:

【What's going on? They aren't playing by the rules.】

【Is Jin Shaoyu playing hard to get?】

【To the one above, is that how you use 'playing hard to get'? It's obvious your Ming Tan is about to be finished. Truly, the fans are just like their idol, stupid beyond measure!】

【No way...】

Shen Zhaojue watched the excitement, fearing it wouldn't be big enough: "Young Master Jin, this lowly commoner is so ungrateful; if you ask me, we should give him a red card."

A red card?

This was practically at the level of wanting to kill Ming Tan.

The heirs of the Four Great Families control the red card punishment system of Sike Academy.

Any student labeled with a red card will be bullied by everyone in the entire Academy, anyone can do whatever they want to them, and such punishment and torture will continue until the person punished leaves the Academy forever.

It has been a long time since a red card appeared in the Academy, and these young masters and misses of the nobility are all looking forward to the day Ming Tan is tortured to the point of a mental breakdown and expelled.

A Special Student who doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth must be punished.

Who in the entire Academy doesn't know that Jin Shaoyu's taboo is the late first lady of the Jin Family.

Jin Shaoyu hates it when others tell him what to do; he immediately pointed at Shen Zhaojue and said: "You, make a call, have the people from the Student Union Rights Protection Department come and take him away."

Shen Zhaojue dared not disobey: "Alright."
