Chapter 64: The Betrayal of Chen Du

~7 min read 1,235 words

Seeing there was no hope of getting any other news, I simply stood up and left directly. Zhang Yinuo hurriedly followed me and said to me, "Sorry, he's usually like this; he's not intentionally targeting you!"

"It's fine, I know. You don't need to apologize!" Zhang Yinuo had really helped me a lot. To be honest, I had always felt that I was a lucky person, at least since meeting Sister Shuang, my luck had been quite good, and later I met Sister Ling helping me, as well as Zhuge Yue, Zhang Yinuo, and the others.

"Hmm, what do you plan to do next?" Zhang Yinuo asked, following behind me out of the door.

"In any case, I won't give up on investigating this matter. Although there are no clues for now, I believe that Heaven will favor me!" I forcibly comforted myself and Zhang Yinuo.

Hearing my words, Zhang Yinuo didn't say anything to dampen my enthusiasm. After leaving the residential area, I had Zhang Yinuo stop, "You can just send me here; I can go back by myself!"

Zhang Yinuo nodded and turned to leave. I stood there for about two seconds. Was she really that decisive? She could at least be a bit polite or send me off a bit more. It was not quite what I expected. I shook my head awkwardly and turned to go back.

The next morning at school, Wang the Fatty ran to the Third Brother and me in a panic and shouted, "It's bad, it's bad!"

"What's wrong? Why do I find you guys are all so jumpy!" I looked at Wang the Fatty helplessly.

"Chen Du has betrayed us! He's not with us anymore! He announced he's leaving!" Wang the Fatty said anxiously.

Hearing this, the Third Brother directly slapped the desk in anger and cursed, "Damn, this bastard, son of a bitch, traitor! Running away at this juncture, he's really not a person. Let's go, let's go settle the score with him!"

"Don't be anxious, let's understand the situation first!" I held back the Third Brother, who was about to leave the classroom, and then continued to say to Wang the Fatty, "When did he say that? Did you hear it with your own ears?"

"It's on the school's bulletin board, his own account, clearly stating he's quitting!"

"Oh, so did he join someone else, or?"

"That's not it. He seems to have just said he quit; he didn't say he joined any other faction!"

I frowned. We didn't have many people to begin with, and we had relied on Chen Du's defection to have quite a few people. Once he quit, we would be lone commanders. Originally, those people were all his, which was equivalent to us only having the Third Brother, Wang the Fatty, and me left now.

"Damn, this bastard, I'm going to go ask him what he means! Don't stop me!" The Third Brother walked out of the classroom in anger; it looked like he was prepared to go find Chen Du.

Wang the Fatty and I hurriedly followed. The Third Brother rushed to Chen Du's sports field and stood there, shouting, "Chen Du, get out here! Chen Du!"

The few people nearby saw the Third Brother and cursed at him in anger, "Why are you shouting so loudly? You're going to bring the building down!"

The Third Brother's temper was at its peak, and he rushed over, grabbed someone by the neck, and cursed, "Where's Chen Du? Tell him to get out here!"

The few people around looked at the Third Brother angrily and cursed, "Let him go!"

The Third Brother didn't care about the people around him at all and held onto the person in his hand tightly, not letting go.

"Stop!"

A voice suddenly rang out. I looked at Chen Du, who was walking over slowly not far away, his expression somewhat indifferent.

Seeing Chen Du come, the Third Brother let go of the person in his hand and looked at him angrily, "What the hell do you mean? Why are you quitting?"

"What? Can't I quit? Does it mean that if I joined you, I have to be under your command for the rest of my life? Aren't you being a bit too overbearing?" Chen Du snorted coldly.

"But why are you leaving at this juncture?"

"So what if it's this juncture? Does it matter when I quit? It's already decent that I helped you before. Do you expect me to risk my life with you? I'm not a fool, and my brothers also need to live. Following you before was to prevent being swallowed by Li Hong. Now that there are only a few of us left, I guess Li Hong doesn't care anymore. Li Hong's target now is you; why should I follow you and ask for trouble?"

"To put it bluntly, you're just scared!"

"Think whatever you want. Besides, why should I risk my life for my romantic rival? Am I a fool?"

Chen Du looked at me with red, angry eyes. It was clear he was very concerned about that incident with Su Xueya.

The Third Brother wanted to say something else, but I held him back and said, "He's coming for me!"

I looked at Chen Du and said with a hint of apology, "This matter was indeed not handled properly by me!"

"You knew clearly how much I like Su Xueya, and you still did that. Have you thought about my feelings? What do you take me for? In your heart, am I just someone working for you, or directly your subordinate?"

"No, I have never treated you as a subordinate. I have always treated you as a brother and friend!"

"Brother? Friend? Heh, then Xu Hongzhi, I think you'd better be careful in the future. This guy might take a liking to your wife later!"

Hearing this, the Third Brother's expression was ugly, and he cursed, "What kind of nonsense are you spouting? Su Xueya doesn't like you at all, what the hell are you blabbering about?"

"What does that have to do with you?"

"Yang Yun, if you're a man, tell me, did you do it that day?"

Hearing Chen Du's words, my expression was very ugly. There were many people around. If I admitted it at this time, it would definitely affect Su Xueya's reputation. I absolutely could not admit this matter.

Seeing that I didn't speak for a long time, Chen Du was even more anxious and cursed, "Are you even a man? You don't dare to admit what you've done?"

"So you want to know what happened that day that much, huh?"

I recognized this as Su Xueya's voice. I followed the sound and found that Su Xueya had also come. Su Xueya looked at Chen Du with an angry expression.

"That's right, I just want to know if you did it that day!" Seeing that Su Xueya had also come, Chen Du simply gritted his teeth and said it directly.

"We didn't go to the hospital that day, and there was no antidote. What do you think it would be like? Are you being childish asking such a question?"

"I don't believe it, I want to hear you say it yourselves!"

"Fine, then I'll tell you. We did it that day, and we did it many times. How about that, are you satisfied now?"
