Chapter 114: Chapter 114: Financial Support (2nd Update!)
"What's going on?"
"My God, something's not right…"
"Could it be, Jiang Yufeng isn't siding with Xia Qingqing and Lin Yun…"
Upon witnessing this scene, some people exclaimed in surprise.
"A small-town boy, suddenly cruising in luxury cars, even visiting high-end places?"
Some people pondered, as though they had thought of something.
"Zhang Xuan, what does Jiang Yufeng mean?" Zhang Yaoyao frowned at her boyfriend, Zhang Xuan.
"Yaoyao, haven't you always wanted Qingqing to find a well-off boyfriend? Now, Master Jiang has taken a liking to Qingqing, it's a good thing! You should persuade Qingqing too!" Zhang Xuan said with an awkward laugh.
He hadn't expected Jiang Yufeng to be so straightforward, this was not what they had discussed earlier. However, recalling Jiang Yufeng's promise to him, he gritted his teeth and expressed this sentiment to Zhang Yaoyao.
"Jiang Yufeng...he's interested in Qingqing? And you, what's with your reaction?" Zhang Yaoyao looked at Zhang Xuan in disbelief, unable to believe that these were the words of her boyfriend.
"Jiang Yufeng, what do you mean by this?" Lin Mengmeng stepped forward, looking coldly at Jiang Yufeng and asked.
She felt that Jiang Yufeng's tone toward Xia Qingqing was not very pleasant.
Jiang Yufeng glanced at Lin Mengmeng, a flicker of hesitancy passing his eyes.
She was once the girl he pursued relentlessly.
Now, seeing her react this way, was she jealous? Jealous that he had transferred his affection elsewhere?
Unfortunately, something had happened a few days prior, which made him realize that Lin Mengmeng was out of his league.
However, it was this very realization that ignited a surge of resentment within him.

So what, she used to ignore him when he pursued her fervently, and now that he had shifted his affections, she reacts like this?
Women really are cheap.
Thinking so, his internal resolve became increasingly reckless. He ignored Lin Mengmeng, lifting his head to look at Xia Qingqing. He arrogantly proposed, "I'll give you ten million, if you'll sleep with me for three years, how about it?"
Lin Yun's eyes turned cold, a tinge of killing intent arose within him.
Just when, Zhang Yufeng turned to look at Qi Nan, sneering, "Don't be upset when I call you an idiot. This girl, you think she's so pure? A fairy from the skies? It's a joke, she's not even a virgin anymore, only a fool like you would fail to see! Now think about what I just said, what do you reckon? haha…"
"Slap—"
Before Jiang Yufeng could finish his sentence, a slap landed on his face, spinning him several times in place.
Lin Yun turned to look at Lin Mengmeng, his brow furrowed slightly.
He was about to intervene when Lin Mengmeng beat him to it.
But her slap was too light, he'd been intending to beat this fellow near to death.
Daring to speak about Xia Qingqing like this, he had touched Lin Yun's bottom line.
"Hiss—"
"That slap must've hurt... she spun him around a few times..."
"Lin Mengmeng's strength... she's pretty tough... but she dared to slap Jiang Yufeng…"
Many onlookers gasped in alarm.
They didn't know if Jiang Yufeng was in pain, but even watching made them wince.
"His mouth stinks, talking about Qingqing like that!" Lin Mengmeng huffed, her voice cold.
"Lin Mengmeng! How dare you hit Master Jiang?" Zhang Xuan rushed to support Jiang Yufeng, turning to berate Lin Mengmeng at the same time.
"His mouth is so filthy, I didn't hit him hard enough!" Lin Mengmeng sneered coldly.
"Zhang Xuan, how could you... act like this?" Zhang Yaoyao said angrily.
She was also very upset with Jiang Yufeng for what he had said about Xia Qingqing. In her view, Lin Mengmeng was right to hit him. She couldn't understand why Zhang Xuan was scolding Lin Mengmeng while siding with Jiang Yufeng.
"Yaoyao, stop making a fuss. Xia Qingqing has already done such a thing, who cares who's keeping her? Three years for ten million, only Master Jiang can pull off such a gesture of extravagance. Who could compete with that? This is a good thing for Xia Qingqing and it spares her from being toyed with by many men..." Zhang Xuan looked at Zhang Yaoyao with a stern face and said.
"You..." Zhang Yaoyao's face turned white with rage. She shakily pointed at Zhang Xuan, speechless.
At that moment, she finally saw clearly.
So, the boyfriend she had chosen was this kind of person after all.
"Lin Mengmeng, how dare you hit me? Are you jealous that I'm going for another woman?" At this point, Jiang Yufeng had regained composure. He wiped the bloodstains from the corner of his mouth, looked at Lin Mengmeng, and grinned, saying.
However, after he finished speaking, something occurred to him, and he repressed the urge to continue provoking Lin Mengmeng.
If it was any other time, he would have continued to provoke Lin Mengmeng... Now, his aggression was more intense than ever.
Lin Mengmeng, who he couldn't afford to offend; could he not afford to offend this farm girl Xia Qingqing?
He had failed to woo Lin Mengmeng in the past and now, pursuing her was entirely out of the question.
So, agitating Lin Mengmeng by going after Xia Qingqing, was also a rare source of pleasure.
Moreover, Xia Qingqing was indeed a rare goddess. Although not a virgin anymore, playing with her would be stimulating nonetheless.
"I say a few harsh words to her, and you hit me? I still want to have my way with her! Can you watch over her twenty-four hours a day? Ha-ha! And how do you know she doesn't resent you for interfering with her business? Ha-ha!" Jiang Yufeng turned to look at Xia Qingqing and laughed loudly.
Blood stains at the corner of his mouth and his ferocious expression gave him an air of madness at this moment.
Qi Nan was angry, but seeing this scene, he remained silent.
Jiang Yufeng's current state seemed abnormal, and if he did step in and stirred up hatred, risking a showdown with Jiang Yufeng, was it worth it?
Ten million! Jiang Yufeng splurged ten million just like that!
As expected of the scion of a prominent family. This did send chills down his spine and made him even more wary of the power behind Jiang Yufeng.
Lin Yun frowned and turned to look at Lin Mengmeng.
Just when he was about to step in, Lin Mengmeng stopped him again.
"Lin Yun, you can't be too aggressive. This Jiang Yufeng has a powerful background. You have nothing to back you up; it could get a bit troublesome for you. Let me handle this..." Lin Mengmeng whispered.
So, that was it.
A sudden realization dawned on Lin Yun.
No wonder when he was about to step in earlier, Lin Mengmeng beat him to it. She'd done it on purpose.
But still, letting Lin Mengmeng fight his battles wasn't nearly as satisfying as doing it himself.
"What's going on over here? I'm the one who controls this place, who dares to make trouble here?"
Just then, a robust voice echoed.
"Brother Tiger..."
"Brother Tiger..."
The surrounding waitstaff greeted him respectfully.
A middle-aged man with an entourage exuding the aura of the underworld walked towards them with an intimidating swagger.
"Brother Tiger?" Seeing this man, Jiang Yufeng's face slightly changed color.
Although he often resorted to strong-arm tactics, and his family did the same, they were ultimately legitimate businessmen.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been threatened into giving up on pursuing Lin Mengmeng a few days ago.
He'd heard of this 'Brother Tiger' and had even seen him from afar. He was incredibly imposing and well-known in this area. Ruthless and feared — there were many stories of people left crippled by him. There were even rumors that he had killed someone and thrown their body into the sea to feed the fish.
Seeing such a underworld figure, Jiang Yufeng felt even more timid.
He was still just a student who hadn't left school yet. He could be domineering and overbearing towards Qi Nan, and he could swagger in front of a group of students, but he couldn't dare to be so arrogant in front of this man.
"Brother Tiger, my name is Jiang Yufeng. My family owns the Jiang Group. I have seen you before." Jiang Yufeng quickly stepped forward, showing his utmost courtesy.
