Chapter 1435: You Can Leave Now

"Stop him quickly, don't let him go up to the rooftop!"

Xu Que's face was grave as he suddenly pointed at Xia Luoqing and shouted at the top of his lungs.

Whoosh!

Several men in black from Boss Lin immediately surrounded him, grabbing Xia Luoqing's arms and then beginning to shake him frantically.

Xia Luoqing was instantly stunned on the spot!

What are you doing?

What are you all doing?

Weren't you supposed to stop me? Why are you grabbing this young master's hands and feet and flailing them about?

"Young Master Xia, stop struggling; we are trying to save you, but you must also restrain your grief; it doesn't matter if the Clan has fallen, the most important thing in life is to be happy, so please don't do anything rash!" Xu Que advised with earnest sincerity.

The mobile phone remained focused on Xia Luoqing, and in the eyes of those unaware, Xia Luoqing, seized by several men in black with his limbs flailing, appeared to be struggling.

But the problem was that Xu Que had previously given various hints, plus Boss Lin had mentioned that the rooftop was prepared for Xia Luoqing, so to many viewers, Xia Luoqing's current "struggle" seemed completely off.

This lad really doesn't seem to want to jump off the building!

"Let me go, let me go, damn it, I'm not jumping..." Xia Luoqing shouted angrily, but before he could finish, a man in black covered his mouth.

"Not jumping what? Not jumping off the building means you won't bear the surname Xia? How can you say such bastard words? You few hold him tight, absolutely do not let him break free, otherwise he will definitely go to the rooftop to jump!" Xu Que instructed the men in black with grave seriousness.

The several men in black understood implicitly, nodded, and then, as if accidentally... loosened their grip.

The next moment, Xia Luoqing suddenly "broke free" successfully, and the instant his feet touched the ground, the men in black immediately shouted, "Young Master Xia, don't do this!"

After speaking, the few of them rushed forward simultaneously, making moves as if to grab "Xia Luoqing," but in reality, they pushed Xia Luoqing toward the stairwell!

"No, stop him quickly!" Xu Que immediately let out a heart-rending, frustrated roar, stepped forward, and the mobile phone camera shook violently, no longer focusing on Xia Luoqing.

Everyone in the Live Stream Room was instantly infected by this tense atmosphere, their hearts skipping a beat.

This lad's acting is so damn fake!

But the question is, could he actually intend for Xia Luoqing to jump off the building?

Is he playing this big of a game?

At the same time, downstairs from the building.

Xu Que's three roommates from the Dormitory, having witnessed the entire process in the Live Stream Room, were already filled with shock and somewhat bewildered.

Is... is this still Xu Que?

He was usually quite normally scheming, but when did he evolve to become so ruthless?

Toppling the Xia Family was already terrifying enough, yet he had no intention of letting Xia Luoqing go, instead openly staging a performance to make Xia Luoqing commit suicide by jumping.

This living person is simply a devil!

Inside the building, Lin Yuxi and Xuan Yuan Wanrong were also watching the mobile phone Live Stream Room.

"He... he really intends to kill Xia Luoqing?" Lin Yuxi was somewhat frightened.

The fall of the Xia Family, for a college student like her, did not seem that shocking.

After all, no matter how powerful the Xia Family was, even if they fell, to ordinary people it was merely a conceptual fall, not enough to be that shocking.

Just like when Lehman Brothers went bankrupt during the financial tsunami years ago, arriving so suddenly, yet in the eyes of many ordinary people, it was just knowing that one concept, without feeling any great shock!

But now, Xu Que was openly staging such a play, clearly intending to make Xia Luoqing jump off the building!

On the surface, he pretended to stop Xia Luoqing, but anyone who watched the complete Live Stream content knew clearly that this lad had previously revealed too many intentional clues, as if he feared others wouldn't know he was doing it on purpose!

"If he kills him, then he kills him; what is wrong with that?" Xuan Yuan Wanrong said with an expression of Solemnity.

She could see that Xia Luoqing was no good, but Xu Que was no good person either; with these two engaging in black eating black, it mattered not who died.

No, Xu Que still could not die, after all, it involved her own life.

So whether Xia Luoqing lived or died was truly a trivial matter of no importance to her.

"But... but, killing is illegal; if Xu Que gets caught and sent to prison..." Lin Yuxi had already connected the dots to the consequences.

With Xu Que acting this way, there was a high probability he would be convicted of intentional homicide or instigating murder!

"It's fine!" Xuan Yuan Wanrong replied lightly; serving time in prison or whatever was of no consequence, as long as he didn't die and implicate her.

"It's fine? How can it be fine? What if..." Lin Yuxi said.

Boom!

However, before she could finish, a huge muffled sound suddenly came from outside the building, as if a heavy object had crashed down from high above, dull yet loud.

Immediately following was a series of screams and shrieks from outside, extremely intense.

In an instant, Lin Yuxi stood frozen on the spot, her face drained of color, daring not to move, lacking even the courage to turn her head to see what had happened outside.

Because it seemed unnecessary to look; she had already guessed the result.

At this moment, her mind was almost completely blank.

Yet, after the blankness, countless images kept flashing forth.

Throughout this year at university, Xu Que's face kept flashing back in her mind.

That Xu Que with a bright and innocent smile, that Xu Que who could always act quirky to make her laugh, that Xu Que who would climb a tree regardless of danger to save a stray cat...

Boom!

Suddenly, those once beautiful scenes were abruptly torn apart by a patch of darkness.

A face full of evil charm and unbridled arrogance, bearing that utterly rogue smile, flooded her mind.

Xu Que!

This was still Xu Que, but he seemed to have transformed from a kind-hearted goofball into an outright Demon King!

"What is happening, why... does all of this feel somewhat familiar? I..." Lin Yuxi suddenly became somewhat dazed; vaguely, she seemed to feel something familiar calling to her, yet she knew not from where!

"Hmm?" Xuan Yuan Wanrong noticed the change in Lin Yuxi, paused slightly, and looked somewhat surprised.

She seemed to sense a faint fluctuation of Spiritual Energy between Heaven and Earth; the Void beside Lin Yuxi appeared to distort slightly before returning to normal.

"What is going on with this woman?" Xuan Yuan Wanrong was startled in her heart.

How could such a situation arise within Xu Que's Memory World?

……

"Ding, congratulations Host for Acting Cool Successfully, gaining three hundred Acting Cool Points!"

At the same time, the system's prompt sound in Xu Que's mind continued.

He gazed at the total count of Acting Cool Points on the interface, which had smoothly reached three thousand, enough to forcibly break this Memory World and return to Tianzhou.

"Host, do you confirm consuming three thousand Acting Cool Points to forcibly break this barrier?" the system asked.

"Confirm!" Xu Que nodded directly without hesitation.

This was the only method he had to leave, since he fundamentally could not generate feelings with Xuan Yuan Wanrong within this Love Tribulation, and neither party had any willingness; how could the normal path possibly succeed?

"Ding, the system has begun breaking through; completion is estimated within three hours. Please make preparations, Host!" the system responded.

Xu Que immediately widened his eyes: "Damn, it still takes three hours? Hell, luckily I was smart and didn't actually push Xia Luoqing down, otherwise how would I have escaped legal punishment during those three hours!"

After speaking, he let out a sigh of relief, his gaze flicking toward Xia Luoqing, who lay unconscious at his feet.

Yes, he had not truly made Xia Luoqing jump from the building.

He had merely thrown down a high-quality version of a Silicone Doll in front of Xia Luoqing; it shattered into a mess at the bottom of the building, causing Xia Luoqing to piss himself in fright.

Immediately after, when Xu Que dragged him up, the man fainted on the spot.

But fortunately, Xu Que had gathered enough Acting Cool Points; if he hadn't, he might truly have thrown Xia Luoqing down to complete one final act of Acting Cool.

"Heh, never mind, I'll let you off this time!"

Xu Que looked at Xia Luoqing on the ground, smiled, turned, and headed toward the stairwell, leaving this rooftop.

His state of mind was long no longer what it used to be; he no longer dwelled on the past, no longer obsessed over enemies already avenged; everything from the past had actually been let go long ago.

The Xu Que of now was far more mature than before, capable of taking things up and putting them down.

Most importantly, he was not as vindictive as he used to be.

Because if he had a grudge, he would definitely settle it on the spot!

"Buzz~"

Just as he descended the stairs, the Mobile Phone in Xu Que's pocket suddenly vibrated.

A call from the Zhao Family had arrived!

"Hello!" Xu Que answered the phone directly.

The voice on the other end, however, was not that of the elder Zhao, but rather a young man, even carrying a hint of arrogance.

"Hey, you're Xu Que, right? I am the legitimate eldest son of the Zhao clan; before you meet my grandfather and the others at eight tonight, come meet me first at the Night Light Bar; I have a big business deal to discuss with you!"

The person on the other end of the line added coldly: "Oh, and you can bring a few more friends to join in; tonight, everything at the Arena is on me, Young Master Zhao!"
