Seeing Song Jin reach for another Chinese cabbage, Li Xiao walked over, snatched the kitchen knife from his hand, and set it down. “So much enthusiasm for cooking in person today?”

Song Jin looked at him slowly. “I thought you were planning to stay at Teacher Yan’s for dinner. If I don’t do it myself, am I just supposed to wait and starve?”

Hearing the intentional emphasis Song Jin placed on “Teacher Yan,” Li Xiao replied with a straight face, “I was originally going to eat there.”

After speaking, he saw Song Jin frowning and heading for the door. “Where is that old man?”

Li Xiao grabbed him. “What are you going to do?”

Song Jin shook off his hand. “Go eat his food and leave him with nothing to eat.”

Li Xiao: “…”

Li Xiao wrapped his arms around Song Jin’s waist, pulled him back, and pointed to the scattered ingredients on the cutting board. “The ones who might end up with nothing to eat are us.”

Song Jin glanced at them. “Can’t they be eaten just because I cut them?”

Li Xiao: “Being able to actually cook them until they’re edible is the real skill.”

“…” Song Jin looked at the ingredients, which were cut into wildly varying sizes, and stubbornly insisted, “How hard can it be?”

“Then you’re the head chef today.” Li Xiao brushed the flour off Song Jin’s hair and clothes, reached over, grabbed a black apron, and tied it on him. “I know you can do it.”

Song Jin: “…”

“I’m going to take a shower first. Wake me when dinner is ready.” Li Xiao loosened his school uniform tie and turned to walk away.

He had only taken two steps when Song Jin caught up and blocked him at the island counter.

Song Jin pressed his hands against the countertop, pinning Li Xiao in front of him, and glared at him with his beautiful amber eyes. “Did you forget something?”

Li Xiao sat calmly on the edge of the island, looking up at him slightly. “What?”

Song Jin’s gaze swept over the small bit of Li Xiao’s collarbone exposed by his shirt, and he leaned in, biting down on Li Xiao’s neck in dissatisfaction. “I’m sifting flour, washing vegetables, and cutting them all by myself, and you didn’t even compliment me.”

The heat from his breath tickled his neck. Li Xiao leaned away slightly, hiding a smile at an angle where Song Jin couldn’t see. “How do you want me to compliment you?”

Song Jin licked the shallow tooth mark he had just made and whispered, “Say, ‘Honey, you’re amazing. I wouldn’t be able to go on without you.'”

Li Xiao: “…”

Did he learn this dialogue from Song Yu?

Under Song Jin’s expectant gaze, Li Xiao ruffled his hair and leaned in to kiss his forehead. “I will try my best to live longer than you and make sure you live a good life.”

Song Jin: “…”

Seeing Song Jin’s gaze turn increasingly fierce, Li Xiao looked at the cutting board, desperately searching for a compliment. “It’s cut very artistically—it doesn’t look much like something for humans to eat.”

Song Jin: “…………”

The result of teasing him too hard was that Li Xiao was chased from the kitchen to the living room by Song Jin.

Li Xiao dodged Song Jin’s hand strike, took two steps back, and his heels hit the table leg. “I really like this knife work.”

“Insincere.” Song Jin used the sofa as a vault, kicked out, and before Li Xiao could steady himself, reached out to grab his shoulders.

Li Xiao leaned back to avoid the kick, pivoted, locked Song Jin’s wrists, grabbed the apron strings, and in a few swift motions, tied Song Jin’s hands behind his back.

“I mean, as long as you cut it, I like it.”

With his hands bound behind him, Song Jin struggled but couldn’t break free. He coldly questioned, “Is that how an apron is used?”

Seeing his defiant expression, Li Xiao deliberately touched his thigh and said with a straight face near his ear, “There are plenty of other uses.”

Song Jin froze, turning his head away with a stiff expression.

He actually didn’t struggle.

This kid’s nervous, shy look is truly deadly.

Li Xiao stopped while he was ahead and restrainedly withdrew his hand.

He’s full today. The rest can be saved to savor slowly later.

The teasing is done, but dinner still has to be eaten. Li Xiao was about to return to the kitchen when his vision blurred. The next moment, he was tackled onto the sofa by Song Jin. The other man pressed on his shoulders, smiling with ill intent, completely devoid of his earlier shy cuteness.

“Dare to touch my thigh?” Song Jin looked down at Li Xiao, his Alpha presence overwhelming, and pressed his hand onto Li Xiao’s leg. “Pay me back a hundredfold.”

Li Xiao: “…”

His leg was almost turned into a scratching post. The only fortunate thing was that Song Jin wasn’t wearing a scrubbing glove, otherwise, his uniform pants would have started pilling.

Seeing Song Jin becoming increasingly unbridled, Li Xiao finally reached his limit. He scooped the man up with one arm and headed toward the bedroom.

Song Jin tried to struggle. “Put me down.”

Li Xiao didn’t loosen his grip; instead, he held him tighter. “Don’t you know you can’t just touch an Alpha’s thigh?”

Song Jin: “Who started it first?”

Li Xiao: “I only touched it once.”

Song Jin: “One thigh equals one hundred ab crunches.”

Li Xiao: “…Too dark, I’m not trading.”

Song Jin (cold-faced): “Put me down.”

Li Xiao simply kissed him.

There are two universal tricks for dealing with little lions: cookies and kisses.

Song Jin struggled for a moment, then quickly wrapped his arms around Li Xiao’s shoulders and kissed him back. His dazed brain suddenly recalled something, and his breath became uneven. “Are you really planning to leave me to have dinner with Yan Qing?”

So concerned about this?

Li Xiao laughed and bit his lip lightly. “I was lying to you.”

After showering, Li Xiao wiped his hair and walked out of the bedroom, forced to face the kitchen that looked like it had been hit by a tornado.

The cut ingredients couldn’t be wasted. Since Li Xiao’s cooking skills were limited, he ended up just chopping them a bit more and boiling a pot of stew.

Song Jin had changed into a loose tracksuit and sat at the dining table. His damp hair was messy, and the silver ring on his earlobe shimmered occasionally. Matched with his flawless face, he looked beautiful yet wild, full of youthful spirit.

Li Xiao couldn’t take his eyes off him.

Song Jin ate a piece of carrot he had cut himself. Seeing Li Xiao looking over, he asked casually, “Did I not wash the flour out of my hair properly?”

Li Xiao looked away nonchalantly. “Is it good?”

“This is food I cut, how could it not be good?” Song Jin fed him a piece of carrot. “What did Yan Qing say?”

Li Xiao rolled the carrot in chili sauce and repeated the afternoon’s conversation to him.

“Everyone’s hope?” Song Jin pondered the meaning of the phrase. “There’s something I haven’t been able to figure out. Where did you go during the ten years you were away from the Palace?”

Li Xiao finished the carrot and replied unhurriedly, “I went to all five star systems. I went wherever I felt like, depending on my mood.”

Song Jin: “Then how did you handle your schooling?”

Li Xiao: “Whenever I encountered something I wanted to learn, I would stay in that place for a while. There were people who helped me arrange the paperwork.”

Though it was called “wandering away from the Palace,” it was effectively a grand tour of study. Li Xiao’s assets weren’t stripped; he still had people he could count on. The first few years as a child might have been difficult, but he never had to worry about food or shelter.

Song Jin fed him a piece of meat. “Weren’t you being hunted down during those years?”

Li Xiao opened his mouth to take the meat and shook his head.

Song Jin looked at him. “Isn’t that strange? You were assassinated in the Palace as a child, and assassinated again after you returned as an adult. Why was it so peaceful during those ten years outside?”

Li Xiao: “They didn’t want me in the Palace. Once I left, I was no longer in their way, so naturally, they ignored me.”

Song Jin retorted: “But you were just a little sprout when you were in the Palace—how could you have been in their way? And who spread the rumor about the servant’s rise to power? If Yan Qing’s records don’t show him as a member of the Bique tribe, why would they say you have Bique blood?”

Speaking of this, Song Jin recalled the situation when Yan Qing was staying at the Yi family clinic after being injured. “Yan Qing didn’t even know such a rumor existed, so it must have started after he left the Palace. Was it your brother?”

Li Xiao recalled his childhood, which felt as remote as if it were lifetimes ago. He shook his head. “Why would he do that?”

Song Jin couldn’t offer a reason, so he returned to the previous topic. “When you mentioned ‘everyone’s hope,’ I suddenly had a thought. Is it possible that someone has been secretly protecting you during those ten years, but you just didn’t know it?”

Li Xiao looked thoughtful. “Who could it be?”

Song Jin: “Your brother?”

Li Xiao: “…”

Li Xiao fed him a piece of potato. “When we have time, you and I will go find my brother and have a chat.”

“He made your childhood so miserable. Aren’t you afraid I won’t be able to hold back from punching him?” Song Jin bit the potato and chewed with puffed-out cheeks.

Li Xiao’s tone was flat. “I’ve wanted to punch him for a long time, too.”

After a few bites, Song Jin stopped mid-motion.

Li Xiao looked over. “Choked?”

Song Jin frowned slightly. “If your Bique bloodline was only known in a small circle, how did that group of Ravens find out?”

A scene from when he met Hu Jiang and his group at the Magic Cube flashed through Li Xiao’s mind.

At the beginning, they clearly didn’t recognize him; it was only when they were parting that Hu Jiang reacted upon hearing his name.

Li Xiao pondered for a moment. “The channel Wei Feng mentioned.”

Knowing the locations of all the Meng family’s bases, the rumors in the Palace, and even the Bique identity of the Ravens—and then passing this information on with such precision.

How much key intelligence does this person, or organization, actually hold?

Song Jin nodded. “If we can find that channel, many questions might be solved.”

Li Xiao was thinking of something even more complex.

In his previous life, after the civil war ended, Wei Feng died quietly, and the Ravens vanished without a trace.

If they hadn’t retired, they were likely eliminated by someone.

Could it be connected to this client?

His terminal vibrated, and Li Xiao snapped out of his thoughts. It was a message from Yan Qing.

Yan Qing: 【I’ll have the extracurricular materials organized for you in a couple of days.】

“Yan Qing?” Song Jin saw Li Xiao frown and guessed right away.

Li Xiao: “Yeah, he agreed.”

At ten o’clock that night, Qian Can and the other two returned to the dormitory.

Li Xiao and Song Jin were working in the living room. Seeing them all looking miserable, Li Xiao asked casually, “Training didn’t go well?”

“More than ‘didn’t go well’.” Qian Can hugged a cushion and slumped over, dejected. “We went to the simulation training hall tonight. We happened to catch a freestyle competition held by the third-years, so we went to test our level. We got absolutely slaughtered.”

Simulation training was similar to holographic games, but the former could read the player’s actual physical data to generate a virtual person with 99% similarity to the user. High-intensity training would also consume stamina, allowing the player to experience genuine fatigue—something holographic games didn’t do.

Song Jin finished reading a intelligence report and asked Qian Can, “Who did you run into tonight that pinned you down?”

“I was insta-killed!” Qian Can said listlessly. “That Liu Jie is the third-year top student, it seems. He came at me with a B+ difficulty combo. Who can hold out against that?”

Song Jin: “You’ve only been training for a few days, don’t you have any sense of your own level?”

Qian Can choked. “It’s just that we were too overconfident, wuwuwu…”

Jiang Hao finished his water and walked over. “The third-years are indeed very strong. I might not make it through this selection.”

Li Xiao: “There is still time to practice. Even if you don’t make it, it doesn’t matter; participation is what counts.”

Qin Le patted Jiang Hao’s shoulder. “Losing to a third-year isn’t a disgrace.”

That might be true, but Jiang Hao was still heavily impacted.

He had never lost so miserably in his life. He hurriedly got up and went to the bedroom to get his notebook to continue studying mecha moves.

Qin Le had recorded the evening’s competition video and asked Li Xiao to take a look.

“He followed this move—the reverse-spin charge into a sweeping leg—with a 720° spin. I tried to back up at the fastest speed, but I still couldn’t avoid the tip of the blade.”

Li Xiao looked at the screen.

The simulation training highly restored the training field environment, and all mecha battles were ground-based.

The opponent charged and unleashed a high-level attack point-blank. Looking at the control interface, one could see that Qin Le issued a retreat command halfway through the opponent’s charge, but he was still a step too slow. To avoid the sweeping leg, he was forced to sidestep, which caused him to miss the timing to dodge the final ultimate move.

Qin Le: “I started the retreat too late. No matter if I retreated by jumping up or moving horizontally, I would have been caught.”

“Then try attacking?” Li Xiao pressed pause. “At the moment you gave the command, swap the input to a 720° side-spin jump. If he dares to come over, he’ll only get himself split in two.”

Qin Le’s eyes brightened.

“If I do that, the speed of my blade would be faster than his second sweep, and it might actually work.”

Li Xiao nodded. “With this kind of heavy-attack combo, if you don’t interrupt it at the opening move, it’s very difficult to avoid.”

Qian Can and Jiang Hao listened very intently and also played back the “killer moves” they encountered for Li Xiao to dismantle.

Song Jin leaned against the back of the sofa, sitting casually with his legs bent. Watching Li Xiao give them a lesson, he couldn’t take his eyes off him.

07: 【Master, Lin Shuo is in trouble!】

Suddenly hearing 07’s warning, Song Jin snapped back to reality. It took a moment to remember who Lin Shuo was.

“What happened?”

07: 【He was surrounded and beaten by dozens of people on his way back from training. He’s at the EK-796 gym area! The surveillance was tampered with, and it’s intermittent. One whole row has been cut off, and I can’t connect to it!】

Lin Shuo had just helped Li Xiao speak up during the day, and now he was being beaten at night. This was a provocation right to their faces.

Song Jin stood up with a cold face and strode toward the door.

Li Xiao grabbed him. “Let’s go together.”

At the secluded little garden next to the EK-796 training area, the sounds of fighting drifted through the air.

Lin Shuo and two companions were surrounded by over thirty people. The two companions were already beaten into a state where they couldn’t get up.

Lin Shuo tried to call for help several times, only to be interrupted. He swatted away the five people rushing toward him. “This is a military academy! What do you think you’re doing?!”

The group wore masks. The leader stood in front of Lin Shuo, clenching his fists. “You can only blame yourself for being nosy and offending people you shouldn’t have. If we don’t teach you a lesson so you remember, you’ll just do it again next time.”

Lin Shuo thought of the status update he posted at noon and quickly understood.

“I just stated the facts!”

“Some things aren’t for people like you to manage. Do you think you’re untouchable just because you’re a top student?” The leader gestured, and the surrounding group crowded in.

No matter how strong Lin Shuo was, he couldn’t withstand them all. He took a solid punch to the stomach, and before he could stand steady, he took a heavy blow to the face, crashing into a tree behind him and falling to the ground, gasping in pain.

“Danse is only like this because of scum like you!”

“Your mouth is quite something.” The leader waved. “Bring the hammer over. Break his leg for me.”

Lin Shuo’s scalp went numb. In the dim light, someone really was approaching with a hammer. He instinctively retreated and shouted for help.

“It’s useless. Did you think we’d come for you without making preparations?” The leader went over and pressed down on Lin Shuo’s right leg. “I heard that if it’s a comminuted fracture, you won’t be able to serve on the front lines even after recovery.”

Lin Shuo was drenched in cold sweat, his chest tightening. He tried to pull his leg back, but several people pinned it down even harder.

“Don’t do anything stupid! Do you really think you can do whatever you want at a military academy?!”

“We really can.” The leader laughed aloud. “If you don’t believe it, try it out. I could even kill you, and no one would dare to investigate.”

The student with the hammer looked down at him. “You can only blame yourself.”

Lin Shuo watched him approach, struggling frantically, only to have his head pressed into the ground by three others.

“Let me go—! If you dare to touch me again, I’ll never let you off!”

Lin Shuo’s two companions were gasping on the ground, holding their stomachs. Seeing this, they struggled to help Lin Shuo, only to be kicked down by those on the sidelines for another round of brutal beating.

When the leader stood up, he suddenly thought of something and said to Lin Shuo, “I know your family has a little money. Don’t think about getting prosthetics; I’ll break it every time you replace it. I’m putting those words here.”

“You scum! You’ll get what’s coming to you!” No matter how Lin Shuo struggled, he couldn’t break free. He could only watch as the hammer was raised and close his eyes in despair.

“Ugh!“

A muffled groan of pain came to his ears, followed by the sound of the hammer hitting the ground.

There was no expected pain. Lin Shuo opened his eyes sharply to see the student with the hammer thrown over two meters away, twisting violently on the ground. A rolling baseball bat was not far away.

“Who’s there?!”

The leader snapped his head around, his pupils shrinking.

Li Xiao and Song Jin arrived, standing in the shadow of the trees with their backs to the light, staring straight at them.

Song Jin twirled the baseball bat in his hand, his pleasant voice tinged with a smile, yet it was colder than the cold wind in the middle of the night. “Why didn’t you notify me when you were going to have a group fight? How boring is it to fight so sneakily?”

The leader was silent for a moment, signaling his underlings to leave.

“You want to leave just like that? Did I agree?” Song Jin stepped out of the shadows, blocking the group.

The leader said in a deep voice, “This has nothing to do with you. You’d better not meddle.”

Song Jin: “What if I insist?”

The leader glanced at Li Xiao over there. “I’m afraid you can’t afford the consequences—ugh!“

Before he could finish his sentence, he was knocked to the ground by the swinging baseball bat. Before he could crawl up, he felt something hot flowing toward the corner of his mouth; he reached up to wipe it, and it was a nosebleed.

Ignoring the others, Song Jin stepped on the man’s head, poking his chest with the baseball bat, and said in a languid tone, “‘I could even kill you, and no one would dare to investigate.'”

“Let go of me!” The leader reached out to strike Song Jin’s leg but was hit by the baseball bat first, shrieking, “Attack!”

The twenty-plus people on the sidelines heard the order and immediately charged at Song Jin and Li Xiao.

The two Betas hadn’t even touched Song Jin before they were sent flying three meters away by a massive force from behind.

Li Xiao had just finished his move when seven or eight people rushed over. Keeping an eye on Lin Shuo’s situation, he dealt with them in a few swift, lightning-fast motions and strode toward that side.

In the chaos, one underling picked up the hammer and ran toward Lin Shuo.

He wanted to complete the mission while the others were occupied with Li Xiao and Song Jin.

The higher-ups had said today’s mission was very important.

As long as Lin Shuo was seriously injured, no one would ever dare to stand up for Li Xiao again.

Lin Shuo was coughing violently, his vision spinning. With the dim lighting, he couldn’t see anything. He crouched in a corner, trying to use his terminal to contact the guard unit.

The sound of approaching footsteps exploded in his ears. Lin Shuo’s whole body tensed. He leaned against the tree trunk, got up, and ran.

He had barely taken two steps when he almost lost his balance and fell, but the next moment, he was supported by a reaching hand.

Li Xiao pulled Lin Shuo back a step and kicked the underling’s face.

The underling couldn’t adapt to Li Xiao’s speed at all and took the hit full-on, flipping onto the ground.

“Ugh!“

Lin Shuo was covered in blood. He squinted at the person in front of him, opening his eyes wide in disbelief. “Li Xiao?!”

Li Xiao looked at the two students lying on the ground. “You go check on your friends first. We’ll handle things here.”

We?

Lin Shuo looked at the crowd and realized there was someone else there.

Under the satellite light, a blonde youth was surrounded while holding a baseball bat, yet he wasn’t at a disadvantage at all.

In just this short while, there were already quite a few people lying in heaps on the ground, rolling and groaning.

This is Song Jin?!

Lin Shuo even wondered if he was hallucinating out of fear.

How could they have come to such a remote place?

This area had been prepared by those people in advance; neither the guard unit nor the students would come near it, and even if someone were nearby, they wouldn’t dare to speak up.

He thought that tonight, his leg was truly going to be lost.

With these few people, Li Xiao didn’t even need to intervene—the crowd wasn’t enough for Song Jin to warm up.

Knocking the last one to the ground, Song Jin walked back to the leader, kicking the man’s leg with his toe and propping it up against another person.

The leader realized Song Jin’s intention, his pupils shrinking. He tried to call the guard unit, but his face was kicked to one side by Song Jin’s toe.

“I, I was wrong! Let me go!” The leader trembled and begged in a low voice.

Song Jin stepped down impatiently: “‘Don’t think about getting prosthetics; I’ll break it every time you replace it. I’m putting those words here.'”

“Ah!” The right leg was bent outward from the knee. The leader jumped and twisted on the ground in pain, unable to even make a sound.

Lin Shuo checked the injuries of his two companions first and contacted the medical department. When he looked up, he happened to see Song Jin breaking that man’s leg, while Li Xiao was just watching coldly, showing no intention to intervene.

Li Xiao opened his terminal to contact Student Council President Gao Jia.

“I have a situation here… I’ll be at Medical Center No. 8 in half an hour… Yeah, sorry for the trouble.”

The medical vehicle arrived quickly. Seeing the ground full of people, the staff felt their scalps tighten. When they saw Li Xiao and Song Jin standing on the side, they felt even more of a headache.

This wasn’t just an ordinary group fight.

The medical staff tacitly didn’t ask anything and used stretcher robots to send the injured students into the vehicle.

It happened to be Ye You’s shift tonight. Seeing two students lying in the corner completely motionless, he went over there first.

“How did you get beaten like this?” Ye You frowned, confirming they were alive, and signaled his assistants to hurry over. “The ones here are serious; send them off first.”

The assistant on the other side: “The group over here is also serious; they’ve gone into shock!”

Ye You: “…”

Kids these days play way too hard.

Lin Shuo’s voice was tight: “Will they die?”

Ye You: “No, don’t worry. Take a look at yourself, covered in blood—hurry up and lie down on the stretcher.”

Once everyone was loaded into the vehicles, Ye You walked over to Li Xiao. “What about you two?”

Li Xiao: “We’ll go together.”

At the medical center, everyone was sent to different operating rooms.

By the time Gao Jia arrived, Li Xiao and Song Jin were sitting on a bench in the hallway.

“What happened?”

Li Xiao stood up and looked at him. “Thirty students bullied Lin Shuo and his two companions. Two are seriously injured, and one nearly had his leg broken by a hammer. Song Jin and I happened to be passing by on a walk and recorded the whole process.”

Gao Jia’s eyes widened slightly. What surprised him wasn’t that Lin Shuo had been beaten—such things were common in military academies, and one could guess the reason with a little thought. What surprised him was that Li Xiao happened to be passing by; how could that be possible?

He wasn’t unaware of what was happening tonight, but he couldn’t manage it.

The surveillance had been tampered with, the guard unit had turned a blind eye, and the school had turned a deaf ear—this was already an unspoken rule everyone acquiesced to.

Li Xiao: “I don’t have to make the video public. I only have one requirement: immediately cancel the student status and military status of these thirty students, and never hire them.”

His tone was flat, yet carried an unquestionable momentum that made Gao Jia feel immense pressure.

“Canceling student status isn’t something the student council can decide unilaterally.” Gao Jia paused. “I’ll talk to the school administration tomorrow.”

Li Xiao: “By twelve noon tomorrow at the latest, I want to see the disciplinary announcement.”

Gao Jia’s expression changed slightly.

Although Li Xiao’s look and tone were normal, he could feel that the other party was very angry—extremely angry.

Gao Jia: “I’ll contact the General Affairs Office right now.”

Song Jin sat on the long bench with his legs bent, glancing at Gao Jia’s back.

Same as the Student Council President, but Lele is so much cuter.

Taking advantage of Gao Jia contacting General Affairs, Li Xiao edited a message to report to Yan Qing.

The reply came quickly: 【Do you intend to hold them accountable?】

The question was very strange, but given the environment of the First Military Academy, it was also very reasonable.

Li Xiao: 【You don’t need to do anything. I will handle it myself.】

Not far away, Gao Jia dialed General Affairs head Zhang Bin’s number several times before it finally connected.

“Head of General Affairs, sorry to bother you so late, but some situations have occurred at the school…”

Zhang Bin was drinking with friends. Once he heard Lin Shuo had been beaten, he frowned and said, “Handle such matters yourself in the student council; why ask me?”

Gao Jia said calmly, “His Royal Highness the Second Prince happened to record the whole process and is very angry about the bullying incident. He is demanding the cancellation of these individuals’ student and military status.”

Zhang Bin was stunned: “What?!”

Gao Jia: “By twelve noon tomorrow at the latest. Please discuss it with the leadership as soon as possible. I can’t decide on the status of thirty people.”

Zhang Bin: “Are you joking? Cancel them just because he says so?!”

Gao Jia: “Then you can communicate with His Royal Highness the Second Prince yourself.”

Having said that, he hung up the communication.

In the bar, Zhang Bin gulped down some alcohol and slammed the glass down heavily.

What kind of damn mess is this!

The Meng family’s brats beat up Lin Shuo to “kill the chicken to warn the monkey,” but instead, Li Xiao brought them out to “kill the chicken to warn the monkey.”

Usually, it wouldn’t matter if someone held a video, but the person was the Second Prince, Li Xiao.

If this matter blew up, it would be bad for everyone, especially now that the relationship between the Royal Family and the Meng faction was so tense.

The Royal Family might not be able to take action directly against the Meng family, but dealing with these little thugs was as simple as could be.

At the medical center, in the hallway outside the operating room.

Gao Jia and Li Xiao sat with one seat between them, waiting for the results of the surgery.

An hour later, Ye You emerged from the operating room. Seeing them still waiting, he waved his hand: “These three kids are fine; they’ll recover after staying here for two days.”

Gao Jia: “And the others?”

Ye You glanced at Li Xiao and Song Jin, cleared his throat, and said: “Those ones will have to stay for a week. Every one of them has a fractured right leg; they won’t be able to do any training for a while.”

Gao Jia: “…”

This… who exactly was the one being bullied?
