“Lin Ying is Qin Hanchu’s fiancée?”
Upon hearing this news, Mu Qianyun’s expression became extremely unpleasant.
“Yes,” Zhou Haochen replied.
Mu Qianyun let out a cold snort, “So what if she’s his fiancée? Any woman I desire is mine.”
Hearing this, Zhou Haochen quickly said, “Young Master Mu, this Qin Hanchu also has a significant background. Most importantly, he himself is an eighth-grade martial artist.”
“What? He’s an eighth-grader?” Mu Qianyun exclaimed.
Zhou Haochen nodded repeatedly, “Indeed, the academy values him greatly.”
“I didn’t expect there to be a martial arts prodigy hidden here.”
“But what does that matter? Anyone who dares to provoke me will be made to perish.”
Mu Qianyun declared proudly.
“You’re right. Although Qin Hanchu has some strength, it’s nothing compared to you, Young Master Mu.” A gloom flashed in Zhou Haochen’s eyes.
He really wanted to see Mu Qianyun and Qin Hanchu clash.
With Mu Qianyun’s family background, was Qin Hanchu qualified to oppose him?
“What is Xue Lingxian’s relationship with Qin Hanchu?” Mu Qianyun asked.
“There’s no particular relationship, but Xue Lingxian likes to hang out with Qin Hanchu and Lin Ying.”
“Xue Lingxian probably thinks Qin Hanchu will be a significant figure in the future, so she’s trying to build rapport early on.”
Zhou Haochen said.
Upon hearing this, Mu Qianyun chuckled, “It seems she’s a person who craves vanity. Ignoring me before, is she trying to raise her own value?”
After school in the afternoon, Zhou Haochen began to rally all his classmates.
At this moment, he had clearly become Mu Qianyun’s top confidant.
Besides Zhou Haochen, there were several other boys and girls in the class who had become Mu Qianyun’s followers.
Where there is power and wealth, there is never a shortage of sycophants seeking to attach themselves to influence.
Mu Qianyun was a new classmate, and Qin Hanchu and the other two naturally wouldn’t refuse his “kind invitation.”
At six in the evening, Qin Hanchu and the other two arrived at the hotel together.
“Classmate Qin Hanchu, I heard you’re an eighth-grade martial artist, that’s truly impressive.” Mu Qianyun smiled and greeted them as he saw Qin Hanchu and the other two.
“It’s passable,” Qin Hanchu replied with a smile.
Mu Qianyun continued, “We are brothers from now on. After graduation, I will have my father take good care of you.”
“Let’s not talk about brothers; being classmates is good enough.” Mu Qianyun’s condescending attitude displeased Qin Hanchu, and he said calmly.
Qin Hanchu’s words caused Mu Qianyun’s smile to freeze abruptly.
In his mind, Qin Hanchu was not qualified to be his brother.
If it weren't for the purpose of approaching the beautiful women, he wouldn't bother with Qin Hanchu.
But unexpectedly, Qin Hanchu refused him.
With many classmates around, Qin Hanchu’s words made Mu Qianyun feel greatly humiliated.
“Are you looking down on me?” Mu Qianyun said with a cold face.
“Classmate Qin, with Young Master Mu’s status, isn’t he qualified to be your brother?” Zhou Haochen interjected.
Qin Hanchu smiled, “I’m a person of principles. I only call people brothers if we share similar temperaments.”
“So, you believe we don’t get along?” Mu Qianyun said coldly.
“If our temperaments don’t match, can we still eat together?” Qin Hanchu asked with a smile.
Mu Qianyun was furious at this point; Qin Hanchu was giving him no face at all.
“If you want to leave, I won’t stop you,” Mu Qianyun said in a deep voice.
“Alright, then we won’t disturb you.” With that, Qin Hanchu turned and walked towards the exit.
Lin Ying followed without hesitation.
Seeing the two leave, Xue Lingxian also turned and followed them.
“Xue Lingxian, Lin Ying, I welcome you to the banquet,” Mu Qianyun said quickly when he saw Lin Ying and Xue Lingxian also preparing to leave.
“We also feel we don’t get along with you, so until we meet again,” Xue Lingxian said with a sweet smile.
“Damn it!” Watching the two beautiful women leave with Qin Hanchu, Mu Qianyun’s dislike for Qin Hanchu intensified.
Ten minutes later, Qin Hanchu and the other two entered a barbecue restaurant.
“This way!”
Xin Xin and Jin Hailu had arrived early. They called out to Qin Hanchu and the other two as they saw them walk in.
Qin Hanchu and the other two came over and sat down. Jin Hailu asked with a smile, “Wasn’t it supposed to be a class reunion? Why did you come back?”
“This new classmate is too arrogant; there was no point in staying, so we came back,” Lin Ying said.
Qin Hanchu picked up his chopsticks and smiled, “It’s still more comfortable eating with you beautiful ladies.”
“You do know how to speak the truth,” Xue Lingxian remarked.
As the five were chatting, four men walked in.
“You are Qin Hanchu!” The four men walked directly to Qin Hanchu, and one of them said coldly.
Qin Hanchu nodded, “Is there something?”
“Attack!”
These four men wasted no words and immediately attacked Qin Hanchu.
Qin Hanchu had already anticipated that these four were not here with good intentions.
The moment they attacked, Qin Hanchu began to counter.
Despite all four of them being eighth-grade martial artists, they were all on the ground in less than five seconds.
“Speak, who sent you,” Qin Hanchu asked coldly, stepping on one of their necks.
“You are not an eighth-grader!” The man lying on the ground looked at Qin Hanchu in shock.
Hearing this question, Qin Hanchu already knew who had sent these people.
He suddenly applied force with his foot, and the man met his end on the spot.
As for the other three, they did not escape the same fate.
“Why aren’t you asking anymore?” Xue Lingxian asked curiously, seeing Qin Hanchu eliminate all four of them.
“No need to ask, their master will come looking for me,” Qin Hanchu said.
Lin Ying beckoned, and guards hidden in the shadows walked in.
“Take these four bodies to the lobby of the Ju Fu Lou.”
Following Lin Ying’s command, the guards immediately carried the four corpses out.
“How did you know they were Mu Qianyun’s subordinates?” Xue Lingxian asked curiously.
“I thought the only people who knew I was at the eighth-grade level were those at the academy,” Qin Hanchu said.
Hearing this, Xue Lingxian’s eyes widened in surprise. She said, “You’re not an eighth-grader? Have you reached the ninth grade!”
“The same as you,” Qin Hanchu smiled.
Xue Lingxian said, “I’m only sixth-grade; how could you be the same as me?”
“Don’t pretend in front of me,” Qin Hanchu said.
“Lingxian, you’re a ninth-grader?” Lin Ying and the other two looked at Xue Lingxian in disbelief.
What was happening in this era? Were martial arts prodigies becoming commonplace?
“How did you know I was a ninth-grader?” Since she had been seen through, Xue Lingxian admitted it.
“How about I guess your identity?” Qin Hanchu smiled.
Xue Lingxian looked at Qin Hanchu in surprise, “You can even guess my identity?”
“Let’s try,” Qin Hanchu smiled, “It might not be accurate.”
“Alright, let’s hear it.” Xue Lingxian was very curious. Could Qin Hanchu really guess her identity?
Due to what had just happened, many people were watching Qin Hanchu and the others in shock.
Qin Hanchu leaned closer to Xue Lingxian, lowering his voice as he said, “If I’m not mistaken, you should be the disciple of the divine physician Xue Jingyuan, right?”
