CH 31

Although Xie Zhongxing said he would help him, his actions were very inexperienced.

Qin Zhongyue was hurt by him several times and finally said with a grimace, “If you help me every day, I will definitely improve at a rapid speed and get into Tsinghua or Peking University in a single day!”Xie Zhongxing looked at him doubtfully, “It feels that good?”Qin Zhongyue, “It hurts! It extremely hurts!! I can go directly to Tsinghua or Peking University in the underworld!”Xie Zhongxing, “………”In the end, they could only hastily end it.Qin Zhongyue’s expression was weary, “Your skills aren’t good. I was almost rubbed raw by you.”He now understood why Xie Zhongxing in his previous life didn’t help him rub one out. It must’ve been because he was worried that he would injure his little one and result in him becoming unable to perform his duty.Case solved!Xie Zhongxing was a little unhappy hearing this. He said expressionlessly, “You even came yet you’re saying it doesn’t feel good?”Qin Zhongyue, “…….”He lowered his head and timidly grabbed a tissue to clean himself up.Xie Zhongxing said, “Alright, you finish two practice papers now. I’ll check when I’m back.”Qin Zhongyue’s face was still flushed as he weakly responded. After Xie Zhongxing left, he took out his phone and played games for a while but only after playing for a few minutes, he started to feel guilty.After feebly feeling conflicted for a few minutes, he could only put down his phone in despair and pick up his pen.It’s over! It’s completely over!Even he can no longer save himself!While Qin Zhongyue was competing with the papers, Xie Zhongxing had already arrived at the court and met with Qin Zhongyue’s so-called Uncle Han.Although this was a small case for Han Yun, it was very important to his nephew. Even Qin Xiangqian had called him specifically to let him take a good bite out of that Xie family.This was why Han Yun couldn’t take it too lightly.And because of the Qin father and son having special interest in this, Han Yin couldn’t help but treat Xie Zhongxing with great caution. When he saw Xie Zhongxing, he immediately smiled and said warmly, “You’re early. It hasn’t started yet.”Xie Zhongxing said, “I can wait.”

Even despite having met Han Yun a few times already, Xie Zhongxing couldn’t help but look at him a few more times when he saw him again. Han Yun was about thirty or forty years of age but he had taken good care of himself and looked very young and handsome. With his suit and leather shoes, his hair combed back and his gold-rimmed glasses, he looked like an elite, a very successful person.He also looked very reliable.Han Yun said, “Don’t worry, it will be over by this afternoon.”Xie Zhongxing nodded, “I’ll have to trouble Uncle Han.”He didn’t call him Lawyer Han and directly called him uncle, making them feel closer. Han Yun who heard this also felt quite good inside.Han Yun smiled and lowered his head to look at Xie Zhongxing’s face, “You are Yue Yue’s good friend. As his uncle, I naturally have to do everything I can. Don’t feel burdened.”Xie Zhongxing thought about it and asked Han Yun, “Will Qin Zhongyue go abroad in the future?”Han Yun was stunned for a moment. He was a little surprised, but he still replied, “You probably already know that he isn’t that good academically. His father’s thoughts were, if he couldn’t perform well in the college entrance examinations and can only get into second- or third-rate universities, he might as well study abroad. You should know that there are many universities abroad that don’t need good grades, including some famous ones. As long as you spend a few million dollars, donate a laboratory or a library, you can buy your way in. Regardless of whether or not it is a good degree, at least in the eyes of others, you are a graduate of a famous university.”Xie Zhongxing, “………”No wonder Qin Zhongyue was so indifferent about it at first and wasn’t nervous about the college entrance examinations. His family had already planned everything out for him.Han Yun glanced at him. He knew that this child had been helping Yue Yue with his studies, saying that he wanted to get him into Tsinghua or Peking University in two months.He knew his nephew very well. He liked to play and had been coddled by the family since he was a child. How could he be able to endure the hardship of studying?Xie Zhongxing’s efforts were destined to be in vain.Xie Zhongxing asked, “Can you buy into Tsinghua or Peking University?”Han Yun didn’t answer and only revealed an inscrutable expression.Xie Zhongxing’s heart sank. Han Yun then said, “But a university of their level is too strict. Every year there would be top students forced to drop out and there were even some who commited suicide because they couldn’t compare with the others and were under too much stress.”Han Yun’s tone was very serious, “If Yue Yue got in, he wouldn’t be comfortable. Going abroad would be a better option.”Xie Zhongxing’s heart relaxed, “I will let him get in.”Han Yun took in his serious expression and curled up the corners of his lips and smiled, Then good luck.”While they were talking, Xie Guoxu, Liu Xiu and Xie Zi’an arrived. When they saw Xie Zhongxing, their eyes all turned red. Liu Xiu was the first to run over, “How dare you. I’ve raised you for eighteen years and this is how you treat me? Sure enough, my judgement of you was right. You are a white-eyed wolf who never warms up!”Xie Guoxu was also very angry, “Even if it’s a dog, they would warm up to you after raising them for a few years. How could they be like you, putting your hands on your waist and suing your parents eighteen years later!”Xie Zhongxing asked, “Are you my parents?”Xie Guoxu pointed at him, his expression terrible, “Even if you’re not our biological son, we have raised you for eighteen years so we’re basically your parents! But look at what you’ve done to us now! How could you do such a thing, you bastard!”

The police had already come to maintain order at the court. Seeing that they were about to start a fight, they immediately hurried over and ordered sternly, “Please keep quiet.”Xie Guoxu had never been in a place like this in his entire life and had some natural fear towards the court and the police. As soon as he received the warning, the burning rage inside him was immediately extinguished and he could only glare hatefully at Xie Zhongxing.Xie Zhongxing turned a blind eye to their hateful glares.Soon, it was time for the trial. Xie Zhongxing entered the courtroom and looked at the solemn-looking judge. He held no doubts towards the outcome of this trial.This was the confidence that Qin Zhongyue had given him.Reaching this point, Qin Zhongyue had really helped him out too much.Xie Zhongxing once again felt immensely grateful towards Qin Zhongyue. In order to repay this show of goodwill, he must let Qin Zhongyue get in!Qin Zhongyue, who was in the middle of tackling a problem, suddenly sneezed.He stopped his furious writing and looked out the window.The view outside is so nice.*It was still early when Xie Zhongxing and Han Yun left the courtroom.Han Yun had his suit jacket hanging from his arm, revealing the silver-grey vest inside. Even with the slight sweat on his forehead, it didn’t affect his elite appearance.Xie Zhongxing felt hot just seeing what he was wearing.Han Yun glanced at the watch on his wrist and said, “It’s getting late, I must head back to the capital. You help me let Yue Yue know. If you manage to get into the university in the capital, give me a call and I’ll treat you to dinner.”Xie Zhongxing’s tone was serious, “Qin Zhongyue and I will both go.”Han Yun who heard this laughed, “Then that would be even better.”After Han Yun left, Xie Guoxu and co. came out while supporting each other. The moment they saw Xie Zhongxing, they even had the desire to kill him.Xie Zhongxing was the first to speak, “Can you give me the money this week? I need it urgently.”His tone was calm and without any changes.Liu Xiu was angered, “If I knew that this would happen, I should’ve strangled you to death back then!

Xie Zhongxing looked at her. He used to call her mother longingly but every time she couldn’t care less responding to him. Even if she did, it would be in a very annoyed tone. That kind of tone was as if he shouldn’t have been born.At least until he was ten years old, he was stuck in a ‘why does mum also hate him, is he really that hateful, was he someone who shouldn’t exist’ confusion.Even if he managed to later learn to not be concerned by it, a wounded heart would always have scars. Only now, he was able to truly be unconcerned.Turns out, the ‘mother’ who hated him wasn’t his real mother.His so-called home also wasn’t his home.He was now truly freed.Casting away their parental identity, Xie Zhongxing realised that he held no feelings towards Xie Guoxu and co.Otherwise, he wouldn’t have silently allowed Han Yun to bite off such a large chunk of meat out from them.The judge accepted the evidence submitted by Han Yun. The five hundred thousand back then was not the same as the five hundred thousand these days. Excluding the very small amount of maintenance costs, the Xie family had to return him four hundred and eighty thousand yuan.This was a huge sum of money for the Xie family who was already in a not-so-wealthy state.It could only be possible if they sold the house and car.For Xie Guoxu, it was on par to returning to the beginning.He didn’t agree with the outcome and wanted to apply for an appeal, but his lawyer told him that even if he applied, the result would still be the same.If the repayment wasn’t made before the specified date, the court would step in to enforce it.The scene at that time would be rather ugly.The lawyer who was representing Xie Guoxu and co. said straightforwardly that they wouldn’t be able to escape from this responsibility even if they wanted to.But they also were very unwilling to give him it. Why should they give it to him? They had properly raised Xie Zhongxing for eighteen entire years and now they’re being sent away with a mere twenty thousand yuan?You wish!Xie Guoxu felt both regretful and angry. If Xie Zhongxing had been given to that elder from the capital back then, even if he gave him away without receiving money in return, as long as he sent this unlucky bastard away, how could there be a day like today?!Xie Guoxu, who had lost the case, was in low spirits. He looked like he had aged more than ten years in an instant. He looked at Xie Zhongxing and then said in a surly tone, “Even if we didn’t treat you well, we still raised you for eighteen years, giving you a home and a place to shelter from the rain and wind. You think your mother would’ve treated you well? After giving you to us, has she ever come to visit you in these eighteen years? You’re the one who chose to do this, don’t regret your actions in the future!”Xie Guoxu took Liu Xiu and Xie Zi’an out of the court after throwing behind those cruel words.

Xie Zhognxing wasn’t bothered at all. He raised his voice and said, “Send the money over in the next three days.”He didn’t get a response, but Xie Zhongxing didn’t mind.He glanced up at the sky. The sky was cloudless, and the sun was bright.Spring had silently arrived. For the first time, he could smell the fragrance in the air.When Xie Zhongxing returned to school, the fourth period just happened to be in session.The last class was Wang Yuxue’s class. When she saw Xie Zhongxing, she immediately left the classroom and asked quietly, “How was it?”Xie Zhongxing smiled lightly at her, “I won.”Wang Yuxue smiled. She was a little hesitant, but she decided to still say it, “Come to teacher’s place for dinner tonight?”Before Xie Zhongxing could speak, Wang Yuxue added, “Call Qin Zhongyue to come too. He has helped you a lot with this. Invite him to come too.”But they were all male students so in order to avoid scrutiny, Wang Yuxue said, “And Wang Yuman and the others. You have all worked hard. Teacher will make more food tonight. All of you should come over.”Xie Zhongxing nodded, “Okay, thank you teacher.”Wang Yuxue smiled and said softly, “Go back to class.”Xie Zhongxing returned to the classroom and sat in his seat.As soon as he sat down, he turned to look at Qin Zhongyue.His gaze was so powerful that when Qin Zhongyue met his gaze, his heart trembled.With trembling fingers, he took out two completed papers from under his table and gave it to Xie Zhongxing.Xie Zhongxing looked through it very briefly. This extremely accurate way of avoiding the correct answer almost all the time was indeed proof that it was done by Qin Zhongyue himself.Although he had made a lot of mistakes, he had still completed his task.Xie Zhongxing was very satisfied. He raised the corners of his lips and smiled at him, “You did well. I’ll go through these two papers with you when we go back later, and you will give them another go after that. If the total score improves by fifty points, I’ll reward you again.”Qin Zhongyue thought back to his technique that felt like he was pulling out weeds and was so scared, his entire body shrivelled up, “It’s okay.”Xie Zhongxing was someone who picked things up quickly. When he saw Qin Zhongyue’s look of fear, he could tell that it was because he wasn’t skilled. That thought made him feel uncomfortable.For him to be where he is right now, if he didn’t have a strong desire to win, he wouldn’t have always been ranked first in the grade.He took out a note, scribbled something onto it and gave it to Qin Zhongyue.Qin Zhongyue picked it up and glanced at it. On it was “It was my first time doing something like that. I will practise and ensure that it doesn’t hurt in the future. As repayment, you should study hard.”Qin Zhongyue: “……..”Qin Zhongyue’s looked moved externally, but he was in deep pain inside ----- How would he dare give it another go? If he did it another time, he would probably become an eunuch!
