Chapter 38: Revenge Achieved

The female roommate’s words shocked the chatting group. Her best friend raised her delicate eyebrows and asked, “What’s going on? What happened to Ma Jinyuan? He’s so capable, what could possibly happen to him?”

Bai Yujing also grew anxious and quickly moved closer. “Xiuxiu, what’s wrong with Jinyuan? Did he get into a sparring match with someone?”

“See for yourselves. Ma Jinyuan is way out of line.” A look of disgust flashed across the female roommate’s face as she handed her phone to Bai Yujing. Bai Yujing immediately saw Ma Jinyuan and Wang Mei embracing on the screen. Her delicate face instantly turned as pale as paper.

Her best friend and roommate also leaned in to look at the phone screen, where Ma Jinyuan and Wang Mei were talking.

“Brother Ma, what do you think of me? Am I cute? Am I charming? Do I make you feel good?”

“Absolutely cute, absolutely charming, absolutely good. My Mei is the best. I like my Mei the most.”

“And how about compared to your fiancée, Bai Yujing?”

“How can she compare to you? She always acts all noble and proper, but it’s all fake. She’s not cute at all, let alone charming. Every time I try to touch her, she makes a fuss. I haven’t even slept with her yet. She acts pure, but she’s actually very flirtatious deep down. Just seeing her makes me sick. How could she ever compare to you, Mei?”

“If that’s the case, then break up with her. Let me be your girlfriend. I don’t want to be with that useless Li Qiang anymore. I want to be your public girlfriend.”

“Well, hehehe… I can’t break up with her right now. She’s the fiancée my parents chose for me. Her family is very rich. My dad is counting on their help to advance further. I don’t dare cause trouble for my dad right now. Let’s talk about this another time.”

…

Hearing these words and looking at the phone screen, Bai Yujing remembered how happy she had felt just moments ago. The stark contrast made her freeze in place. Her mind became a tangled mess, as if countless bolts of lightning were flashing inside her head, making it hard to breathe. Then, she felt her body go weak and she collapsed to the side.

So this was what Ma Jinyuan had been busy with every day. He wasn’t training hard or doing student council work. Instead, he was being intimate with this wretched woman and cruelly mocking her. She must have been blind before.

“Yujing, what’s wrong? Wake up! Don’t scare us!”

“I never thought Ma Jinyuan was such a person. He’s truly despicable. Yujing, there are plenty of fish in the sea. Why cling to one branch? Don’t be so hung up on a scoundrel.”

…

Her best friend and roommates panicked, quickly supporting Bai Yujing and comforting her. Just then, the usually elegant Bai Yujing suddenly sat up, her eyes flashing with a cold light. She let out a piercing scream, “Ma Jinyuan, I will not let you get away with this!”

Meanwhile, in the woods, Ma Jinyuan, who was busy “plowing the fields,” heard his phone ring. His face darkened as he cursed, “Who the hell is calling me at a time like this? Have they no decency?”

“Brother Ma, ignore it. Let’s continue. So annoying.” Wang Mei also felt a bit frustrated, her eyes seductive.

Ma Jinyuan directly hung up and turned off his phone. “Alright, these idiots always have something going on. They always drag me down at critical moments.”

Tossing his phone aside, Ma Jinyuan pounced on Wang Mei again. Dozens of miles away, several boys of varying heights kept dialing Ma Jinyuan’s number, but all they heard was, “The number you have dialed is powered off. Please try again later.” The group was instantly filled with frustration.

“What is Brother Ma doing? He’s dropping the ball at a critical moment. Li Qiang and Bai Yujing are about to come for him. Why isn’t he answering his phone? He even turned it off. Damn it.”

“We’re really done for this time. Brother Ma has messed up big. Li Qiang is not weak, and his background is almost as good as Brother Ma’s. As for Bai Yujing, her family’s assets are worth over a billion. She’s a well-known wealthy figure in our Handu District. Brother Ma has offended both of them at once. How is he going to survive from now on?”

“What else could Brother Ma be doing? Haven’t you seen the live stream on Tieba? He’s definitely still fooling around with that wretched Wang Mei. Let’s hurry and find Brother Ma based on the video. We must not let Li Qiang and Bai Yujing find him first, or things will get really messy.”

…

These boys were Ma Jinyuan’s lackeys at Tianhai University. After a quick discussion, they immediately headed out to find Ma Jinyuan and Wang Mei, following the scenes from the video.

Just as they set off, Li Qiang also led a group of skilled soccer players toward the small woods, charging like fierce tigers, nearly insane.

Right after Li Qiang left, Bai Yujing led a group of sisters from the library, also heading out to find Ma Jinyuan and Wang Mei.

With all three groups on the move, Ma Jinyuan and Wang Mei were in for real trouble. Wait, it wasn’t just three groups. Many students on Tieba who loved stirring up trouble also became interested after seeing the video. Quite a few of them also headed toward the small woods, wanting to witness just how intense the “battle of the century” between Ma Jinyuan and Wang Mei would be.

In the small woods, Jiang Xincheng recorded the final “battle” video and posted it on Tieba. His Spiritual Sense fluctuated, and his senses sharpened. He faintly heard sounds from hundreds of meters away. The first wave of students wanting to watch Ma Jinyuan and Wang Mei’s “battle” had arrived. In that case, it was time for him to leave.

The upcoming drama would be performed by Li Qiang, Bai Yujing, Ma Jinyuan, and Wang Mei. He only needed to sit back and watch. But before leaving, he should leave something for Ma Jinyuan.

Looking at Ma Jinyuan, who was fully focused on his task, a mocking smile appeared on Jiang Xincheng’s lips. He moved swiftly, charging toward Ma Jinyuan and Wang Mei.

“Who’s there?”

Busy with his task, Ma Jinyuan only noticed Jiang Xincheng in the darkness when he was just over a meter away. But by then, it was too late. Jiang Xincheng punched him, sending him flying deep into the bushes. He couldn’t get up for a long time.

Looking at the disheveled Ma Jinyuan and the screaming Wang Mei, Jiang Xincheng let out a cold laugh and disappeared into the depths of the woods. He had left a hidden force inside Ma Jinyuan’s body. For the next year, Ma Jinyuan’s Primordial Force would not improve at all.

And after a year, Ma Jinyuan would become a cripple. No one would ever suspect that Ma Jinyuan’s downfall had anything to do with him. After all, he had no grudge against Ma Jinyuan. They didn’t even know each other and had only seen each other a few times on campus. How could they have any enmity?

So even if Ma Jinyuan later wanted to find the culprit, he would only suspect those he had conflicts with. He would never connect it to Jiang Xincheng. No matter what, Ma Jinyuan would never guess that the reason for such a vicious attack was due to grudges from a past life.
