Supremely Talented Tyrant

Chapter 2161 - 2362: My Life Is Yours!!!

"Okay!" In the end, she just nodded and said "okay."She couldn't say any more unnecessary words. She was fed up with this so-called "warmth," and from her parents' indifferent care she had no interest in paying attention to it anymore. Aside from saying "okay," "fine," and "sure," she was rendered speechless.

Sure enough, after her mom finished speaking, she just left, not even caring if she responded. It was utterly indifferent, just a formality of care. Then she walked past her again. Her mom never asked if she was scared being home alone, whether she ate well, or if she was happy. At most, she'd say to ask her parents if she needed money.

She walked downstairs and suddenly noticed that the window, which was closed earlier, was now open. The wind blew the curtains, making them sway. She muttered to herself, "Wasn't this window closed earlier? Why is it suddenly open again?"

But she was just talking to herself. After saying it, she walked over and closed the window herself without waiting for any response. After closing the window, she left, poured a glass of water to drink, and then went upstairs, walked back to where she was before, and went back to her bedroom. With a "bang," the door was closed, and she was the only one standing outside, with no further verbal exchanges.

Dazed for a moment, she ultimately returned to her bedroom, lay on her bed, closed her eyes, and gradually drifted into dreamland. She didn't know whom she dreamed of, only that when she woke up in the morning, her pillow was wet. But what could she do about it? Wipe away the tears, clean up, and eventually face everything.

......

Hao Jian jumped out of the window, not caring about anything, his heart racing, and his expression tense. He ran out of the building, out of the neighborhood, and after running for about three minutes, he felt himself gradually calming down. It was only then that he stopped and took a deep breath.

"Ah..." He sighed.

He didn't know why, but he felt very anxious, as if he had done something wrong. But if he hadn't done it, it would have been even worse. To sum it up, a lot happened that night: first, he was scared by Zhang Danlin's report of a burglar, then startled by her parents' sudden return, and then provoked by what she was about to say.

He was now trying to stabilize his emotions, and he didn't know how long it took. Once his mood was completely calm, he looked up at the time; it was almost one in the morning.

"It's late." Saying this, he lifted his steps and walked. He didn't choose to take a taxi; instead, he walked slowly, taking more than an hour before reaching his building, going upstairs, entering his room, washing his face with cold water, and finally lying down to sleep.

As soon as he closed his eyes, he fell asleep, and when he woke up, it was already morning.

Because he had come back last night, and since Liang Xiaohan hadn't woken up in the middle of the night, nor had he come to his room to see if he was there, when he got up in the morning, Liang Xiaohan didn't do anything different to him. Everything was as usual: washing up, having breakfast, and then going to school.

When he got to the classroom, to prevent rumors among the classmates, he chose to stagger the times with Liang Xiaohan. Liang Xiaohan entered the classroom first, and then one or two minutes later, he went in.

When he entered the classroom, Zhang Danlin looked up at him for a second but then quickly looked down, her brow slightly furrowed, and it was unclear what she was thinking. However, when passing by him after class, she still greeted him, and Hao Jian smiled in return, as if nothing had happened the night before, everything was just like any other day.

Hu Lai and Fatty still joked with him, and during breaks, the three of them sometimes took a trip to the restroom. If boys are going to the restroom together, it obviously can't be just a simple walk; they must be deepening their revolutionary friendship.

On this day, Liang Xiaohan didn't bother him, Zhang Danlin didn't say much, and Li Weiwei strangely didn't pay him extra attention. Everything just went on peacefully and as expected.

Tomorrow would be Friday.

While lying in bed at night, he suddenly received a message from Baldy.

"Boss, everything is ready, just waiting for us now; you won't be disappointed." - Baldy

Hao Jian looked at it, everything was as expected. He replied with the word "got it" and then turned off his phone to sleep.

The next morning when he woke up, it was Friday. While having breakfast, Liang Xiaohan suddenly looked at him and asked, "How's that thing going? It's Friday today. I've heard Gu Peng has called a lot of people. Don't embarrass me. If you do, don't say you know me."

Hao Jian smiled and nodded, saying, "Don't worry, I have a plan, everything is well in hand."

Seeing Hao Jian's confident demeanor, Liang Xiaohan didn't ask any further and continued eating breakfast with a calm face.

Just like any other day, the two of them went to school and attended classes as usual. However, beneath this orderly routine was a large undercurrent of tension.

As soon as the bell rang for break, a large group of people gathered, whispering excitedly about Hao Jian and Gu Peng's confrontation that was to happen that day.

Discussing it, many people leaned towards Gu Peng winning. After all, Gu Peng had already made a name for himself in Yawen, with a solid reputation and strong subordinates, unlike Hao Jian, who was just a newcomer. What abilities could he possibly have?

But there were others who disagreed. They questioned Hao Jian's abilities, pointing out how his feats had been talked about throughout Yawen in such a short period. Many had heard of his name, it was well-known.

Moreover, Gu Peng had tried to provoke Hao Jian several times but never had any luck. Last time, he went to mock him but ended up being beaten and fleeing.

This perspective gained a little more support for Hao Jian, but still not enough compared to Gu Peng's supporters. Most people were convinced that Gu Peng would surely win. After all, this wasn't just a battle of individuals, but of influence and strength. With a wave of Gu Peng's hand, countless would come to his side, but on Hao Jian's side? The result seemed obvious.

Thus, many people underestimated Hao Jian, thinking he was just setting himself up for humiliation, waiting to watch the spectacle, some even thinking of how to mock him after being beaten by Gu Peng and his gang.

Hao Jian only heard numerous rumors and received many sneers and mocking glances while he walked around during breaks. He didn't take it to heart, but Hu Lai and Fatty beside him were visibly upset, glaring at those who sneered and responding angrily.

Time quietly slipped by, with students buzzing with discussions while teachers seemed oblivious. The students knew well enough that the teachers should never find out about this, as it would surely lead to consequences for both Gu Peng and Hao Jian before they could even face off. So while the students continued discussing nonstop in class and breaks, they all kept silent as soon as a teacher appeared, ensuring no teachers were aware of the situation.

In the final class, Hu Lai and Fatty both looked towards Hao Jian. Seeing how things reached this point and Hao Jian still seemed indifferent, they were anxious, much like eunuchs worrying more than the emperor. However, their concern was justified, given Gu Peng's overwhelming backing and Hao Jian showing no signs of preparation.

There was no sign of him gathering people or making any plans. He spent classes sleeping, breaks playing around with them. So how was he going to confront someone like Gu Peng?

Hu Lai looked at Hao Jian, seriously and asked, "Boss, do you really have this all locked down, or what? If you do, can you share with us, your brothers here, so we don't worry for nothing."

Hao Jian just smiled and didn't answer.

Fatty, anxious on the side, chimed in quietly, "Boss, if... if there's really no way, I have a plan. I know there's a spot on the right side of the school field where we can easily climb out. Once we're out, we're in the neighborhood behind the school, really easy to hide. That way, Gu Peng can't do anything to you."

Before Fatty could even finish, Hu Lai gave him a knock on the head and said, "What nonsense are you speaking? You don't understand Brother Hao at all. If he's still so relaxed at this stage, he must have his tricks. Why are you spouting nonsense?"

Realizing his mistake, Fatty quickly shut his mouth, not saying another word.

Then Hu Lai looked at Hao Jian again and said, "Boss, I'll be honest. No matter what happens today, my life is yours to command. Gu Peng might be powerful, but if you say the word, I'll fight him for you. So if you need me later, just say the word."

"Me too..." Fatty added, "Count me in, I'm with Hu Lai."

Hao Jian smiled, feeling touched. He hadn't expected to bond so deeply with them in such a short time, leaving him speechless except to smile.

After a pause, he patted their shoulders and said, "Alright, you two will come with me later."
