Chapter 6 Prompt Action

  • The next day, Qin Ming had no class in the morning. After taking a bath, he finally got rid of the rancid smell on his body.
  • Thereafter, he packed his stuff and headed to the library to do the macroeconomics report.
  • There were many people in the library. After all, not everyone came to the university to goof around or paid others to take exams for them like Yang Wei and Li Meng did.
  • Qin Ming soon buried himself in his work after sitting down. But occasionally, he had to leave his seat to find books or look through some information.
  • Surprisingly, he saw a beautiful cake sitting on his table when he went back to his seat at one time.
  • He looked around and saw that no one was peeping at him. He couldn't help but wonder who would have given him that expensive cake.
  • Is this from Nie Haitang? We had a good chat yesterday. Is she missing me already?
  • In fact, Qin Ming hadn't taken his breakfast. Since the cake was on his table, he just took two bites of it without thinking much. The cake was not too sweet nor icky and it tasted like heaven.
  • In less than no time, Qin Ming already finished it. In order not to waste the bits and crumbs, he even licked the plastic base.
  • Suddenly, a pretty girl walked over and screamed, “Ah! My golden butter cake! Who are you? Why are you eating my cake?”
  • Qin Ming was shocked. Isn't the cake a gift for me?
  • The girl pointed at Qin Ming angrily, “You're still licking the thing? Are you so poor that you have to steal other people's food? I've never seen such a loser like you before!”
  • Qin Ming was embarrassed, so he quickly explained, “Err... No... Well... This is a misunderstanding. Actually, I...”
  • “Actually, you are so poor that you don't even have the money to buy breakfast. A cake suddenly appeared out of nowhere, so you just ate it, right?” A guy next to them sneered.
  • Qin Ming raised his brows. Isn't this Zhao Fugui from my class?
  • Zhao Fugui came from a rich family and he had a good relationship with Yang Wei. He was a very cocky guy who always looked down his nose at Qin Ming. He guffawed so happily when Qin Ming was ridiculed for his body odor yesterday.
  • Zhao Fugui said, “Miss, this dude is from our class. His family is very poor, so he has to work part-time every day. He is always late for class and has no time to change his clothes. Instead of studying, he comes here to steal other people’s breakfast. He is so shameless.”
  • The girl showed a disgusted look on her face after hearing that, “Tsk, tsk, tsk.”
  • The students who were doing their homework quietly were distracted by Zhao Fugui's speech. They all raised their heads to look at Qin Ming.
  • “What a douchebag! He steals other people's cake.”
  • “Since he's so poor, he should just go to work. Why study?”
  • “Isn't he the guy who found out that his girlfriend cheated on him when he was working at the cafeteria yesterday?”
  • “Hehe, poor people are so cheap. No wonder he is dumped.”
  • Everyone started gossiping about Qin Ming.
  • Qin Ming didn't bother to refute Zhao Fugui. He explained to the girl, “Miss, the cake was put on my desk. So I thought...”
  • The girl was instantly infuriated, “Your desk? You still have to nerve to say that? I clearly put it here. It's so far from your place. See, my glass is still here. Do you know that golden butter cake is only available with limited stock every day? One piece costs more than 100. Even if you have the money, you may not be able to buy it. Do you know how long I've waited in the line?”
  • Qin Ming knew something was amiss upon hearing that. If the cake was originally not on my desk, then who put it here?
  • He looked at Zhao Fugui who was trying hard to hold back his laughter.
  • Unfortunately, there was no CCTV in the self-study room. Otherwise, Qin Ming could find out the truth and prove his innocence.
  • He shook his head as he took out his wallet and said, “Miss, I'll pay you back for the cake.”
  • However, after counting all the money he had twice, there was only 67. The notes were all very dirty and the money clearly was not enough for compensation.
  • Zhao Fugui burst out laughing when he saw that, “Wahhahha... this poor guy is so pathetic.”
  • Other students also laughed.
  • “He denies eating the girl's cake. Then he wants to pay her back but has no money. What a joke!”
  • “Hey, is that Chen Muling from business school? I heard she is a sassy rich girl who has a fiery temper.”
  • “Maybe this is a new trick to pick up a girl. Too bad it doesn't work on Chen Muling. Hahaha!”
  • “I'll dig a hole and hide in it if I were him.”
  • “This guy is so thick-skinned.”
  • Chen Muling flipped out when she heard that someone mentioned her name, “You don't even have 100 with you? Unbelievable! How could you be so poor? And you still won't admit eating my cake? You're simply disgusting.”
  • Qin Ming was rather ashamed because he really did eat her cake. He still had more than 400 thousand in his card, so he said, “Miss, I don't have enough cash. I can transfer the rest to you via WeChat.”
  • Qin Ming then handed the money to Chen Muling. Unexpectedly, she flung her hand up in anger and shoved the money off the ground. Her face turned red as she yelled, “Do you think I have no money? I'm not like you, loser! I have never used notes that are less than 100 and I don't want your filthy money!”
  • Chen Muling took two steps back in disgust while she continued bashing Qin Ming, “Forget it. You don't have to pay me back. I've had enough of you. It's just 100. I will take it as a handout given to a beggar.”
  • Qin Ming didn't blame her as she was also the victim. The culprit was Zhao Fugui who deliberately put her cake on his desk.
  • Too bad he had no evidence to prove it.
  • Just then, a female lecturer walked over and reprimanded them, “What's all the noise about? This is the library. Keep silence or go out.”
  • Chen Muling raised her voice and complained to the lecturer, “Teacher, this guy didn't have money to buy breakfast so he stole mine. He even denied it when he got caught.”
  • Qin Ming bent down to pick up his money from the floor.
  • He defended himself and said, “Teacher, I didn't. The cake was on my desk when I came back. I thought someone gave it to me.”
  • Chen Muling taunted him furiously, “Come off it! I have the receipt. You ate the cake and you still won't admit it? You're such a cheapskate. Actually, I don't care about the cake. But I really couldn't suppress my anger at the sight of you.”
  • She was very surprised when she saw Qin Ming picking up a few coins from the floor. My goodness! No one will pick up a paper bill from the ground, let alone a coin. How poor is this guy?
  • The lecturer took Chen Muling's words for it.
  • She waved her hand to Qing Ming and said, “This is the first time I heard such shameless act! Even if you're poor, you shouldn't demean yourself by stealing. Pack your things now and get out of here. You're not allowed to enter the library for a month.”
  • Qin Ming couldn't fight with the lecturer to prove that he was innocent, so he could only do as she said.
  • Zhao Fugui looked at Qin Ming smugly and made a face at him. Therefore, Qin Ming was even more confident that Zhao Fugui had put the cake on his desk secretly when he went to find a book.
  • He felt so resentful that he was kicked out of the library because of a wrongful accusation.
  • Zhao Fugui, I'll let you taste a dose of your own medicine!
  • Qin Ming took out his phone and texted Song Ying who was at Yun Shan Villa: I have a classmate named Zhao Fugui. I want you to teach him a lesson and break his right hand. He's at the library now.
  • Song Ying replied instantly: Yes, young master.
  • After sending out the message, Qin Ming saw Zhao Fugui walking out of the library with one of his sidekicks.
  • Zhao Fugui mocked him, “Hahaha, Qin Ming. You piece of shit! I bet you've figured out that I did it, right? Bingo! It's me! Hahaha!”
  • Zhao Fugui let out a wild and scornful laugh. He even made funny faces and shook his bum to infuriate Qin Ming.
  • Qin Ming's face turned cold as he confronted Zhao Fugui, “I have no grudge with you. Why did you do that to me? You want to avenge Yang Wei?”
  • Zhao Fugui sneered, “Hahaha, loser! Don't you know that you're the source of my joy at the university? Look at what you're wearing and using now. It's so funny and tacky. But to me, you're great entertainment. It's so much fun messing with a poor dickhead like you. Yup, I played a prank on you, so what? You think you can get back at me? You're just a piece of shit. I can do whatever I want to you. You looked so embarrassed just now when you took out a wad of small bills and realized that you didn't have enough money. Hahaha! This is a joke. You don't even have 100 with you. Hahaha!”
  • Zhao Fugui and his sidekick were laughing out loud. He even moved his face to Qin Ming's and provoked him, “Somebody is angry? Just hit me. Coward! Loser! Hahaha! What are you waiting for? Because you know a poor guy like you couldn't afford to offend a rich guy like me? Hehe, I especially enjoy to see when a dickhead like you gets mad. I let you hit me and you don't dare? What a wimp!”
  • Qin Ming couldn't bear it anymore and was about to give Zhao Fugui a good smack.
  • Swoosh!
  • Just then, a black Mercedes-Benz MPV made a sharp drift, leaving a few tire friction marks on the road and stopped right in front of them.
  • The door popped open before a strong arm stretched out, grabbed Zhao Fugui's collar, and pulled him into the car.
  • Boom!
  • The engine roared as the Mercedes-Benz took off. After it drove about ten meters away, a voice could be heard coming out from the car, “Who are you? My father is... Ahhhh! My hand!”
  • Shortly after, the door opened once again while the Mercedes-Benz was still moving. Zhao Fugui was thrown out of the car before it sped off.
  • Everything happened in less than ten seconds.
  • The face of Zhao Fugui's sidekick turned white as sheet. After collecting himself, he quickly ran over, “Fugui, Fugui, are you alright? Help! Help!”
  • At the same time, Qin Ming received a message and three photos from Song Ying.
  • The first photo showed Zhao Fugui's astonished face when he was pulled inside the car. In the second photo, a burly man was seen snapping Zhao Fugui's right hand. While in the third photo, it could be seen that Zhao Fugui was being thrown out of the car.
  • Lastly, it was Song Ying's message that said: Young master, mission accomplished.
  • A faint smile crept across Qin Ming's face. Song Ying is quite efficient.
  • Just when Qin Ming wanted to put his phone away, he received another message: Qin Ming, come to the badminton court for today's activities now.
  • Qin Ming frowned. You want me to fetch and carry for you again? No way!
  • So he just replied that he was not free.
  • After he put down the phone, it vibrated again. It was a message from Nie Haitang: Come join us. It'll be fun.
