I bought a secret manual of the Hehuan Sect for ten yuan.

Qin Ge walked slowly toward Zhu Yanghe with a cold face. "Clean up the table."

Zhu Yang's face was extremely ugly. "Qin Ge, don't push your luck!"

Qin Ge said calmly, "So what if I want to bully you? If you're not happy, then fight me again!"

"When you used to bully others, did you ever think that you might one day be bullied yourself?"

"Don't think that just because you have a few bucks you can trample on other people's dignity. No one can touch my things without my permission!"

He glanced at Liu Yang and Song Yuan, "If you two want to help him, then go ahead and do it."

Liu Yang and Song Yuan lowered their heads guiltily. They had also taken Qin Ge's things. Although they didn't intend not to pay, they had indeed taken them without asking.

They could have called or texted Qin Ge before taking it; it wouldn't have taken much effort, but none of them did.

Subconsciously, they felt it was no big deal; even if Qin Ge was angry, he couldn't do anything to them, they could just give him the money.

Ultimately, it was because Qin Ge was usually too mild-mannered that they didn't take him seriously from the bottom of their hearts.

"Qin Ge, we're all classmates, that's enough." Liu Yang forced a smile. "I'll clean up your desk!"

"Did you make this mess? Did you throw this trash?" Qin Ge showed no mercy. "Whoever did it should clean it up!"

"Zhu Yanghe, don't you even have this much sense of responsibility?"

"You expect someone else to clean up your mess when you do something wrong?"

"I'm not going to discipline you, what can you do about it?" Zhu Yanghe remained defiant.

"Snap—"

Qin Ge raised her hand and slapped him across the face. "Then I'll keep hitting you until you're willing to clean up the mess!"

Since the other party had already resorted to violence, Qin Ge didn't want to show any mercy anymore.

If he hadn't cultivated the Yin-Yang Scripture, he might have been seriously injured by now. If Zhu Yang hadn't been careful with his strength, he might have even been stabbed to death.

Zhu Yang was both angry and frustrated. He felt that Qin Ge's slaps were like magic, always so precise that he couldn't dodge them.

After being slapped several more times, Zhu Yanghe finally lowered his head and, enduring the excruciating pain, began to clean Qin Ge's desk with one hand.

Liu Yang and Song Yuan wanted to help, but Qin Ge's cold glare immediately dissuaded them.

They didn't know what they were afraid of, but they felt that Qin Ge had changed and was quite frightening.

If it were me who had a conflict with Zhu Yang, could I handle it as calmly and forcefully as Qin Ge?

It's clearly impossible.

If it were Liu Yang or Song Yuan, they would have backed down the moment Zhu Yang drew his knife.

"Qin Ge, you just wait! I'll make you pay for everything you've done today!"

"You'll regret this!"

Liu Yang and Song Yuan's eyelids twitched. They were already beaten up like this, why were they still spouting tough talk? Couldn't they just show off?

If you anger Qin Ge again, you'll just get another beating for nothing!

However, Qin Ge ignored Zhu Yanghe, knowing that Zhu Yanghe would never truly submit to him.

Zhu Yang looked down on Qin Ge from the bottom of his heart, and getting a beating wouldn't change much.

He might yield to anyone, but that person absolutely cannot be Qin Ge.

The next day, when Qin Ge left home in the morning, Zhu Yang and the other two had not yet returned.

After 8 a.m., Lin Yao called, and Qin Ge arrived at her office a dozen minutes later.

"What did you do last night?!"

Lin Yao immediately questioned Qin Ge upon his arrival, her pretty face as cold as frost.

"What did you do? What do you mean?" Qin Ge had never seen Lin Yao so stern before.

"Take a look for yourself!" Lin Yao handed Qin Ge a notice document stamped with the seal of the Dongda Medical School.

"Probationary period?" Qin Ge quickly glanced through the documents, a cold smile playing on his lips.

The notice was simple: student Qin Ge illegally opened a small shop in the dormitory. His roommate Zhu Yang tried to dissuade him, but to no avail; instead, Zhu Yang was assaulted and injured by Qin Ge, a serious offense...

"Do you realize how much this punishment will affect you?"

Lin Yao's face darkened. "Is the matter really as stated in the announcement?"

She didn't believe Qin Ge could do such a thing; she had confidence in Qin Ge's character.

Zhu Yanghe was really beaten and is still in the hospital!

"That's pretty much it, I did hit Zhu Yanghe." Qin Ge knew very well that the truth wasn't that important at this point.

The incident happened just last night, and the disciplinary action was announced this morning. No one even asked him about the whole incident before the verdict was finalized.

There must be someone pushing this behind the scenes, blaming him for all the mistakes.

The Zhu family's influence is greater than he imagined!

He did hit someone, and there's no excuse for that.

"Tell the truth!" Lin Yao didn't believe it at all. "If Zhu Yang and Ruo were really trying to advise you, why did you hit him?"

"You have to tell me the truth before I can help you, at least try to reduce the punishment!"

Qin Ge thought about it seriously, "I did violate the rules by opening a convenience store in the dormitory, and almost everyone in our building knows about it."

"Zhu Yang was blocking my path to wealth, so I beat him up in a fit of anger."

"Of course, I've disliked him for a long time, and that's one of the reasons."

"If there's nothing else, I'm going to class."

"Explain things clearly first! Come back!" Seeing Qin Ge leave without looking back, Lin Yao stomped her feet in anger.

Qin Ge didn't go to class after leaving the office. The two classes he attended in the morning made him realize that these courses were meaningless to him and a complete waste of time.

After much thought, Qin Ge decided that the most important thing now was to improve his own strength.

If he weren't still not strong enough, he wouldn't need to have too many concerns about Zhu Yanghe. Even if he killed Zhu Yanghe, he wouldn't have to worry about how to handle the situation!

Back in the dormitory, Liu Yang and Song Yuan were already back.

The two looked at Qin Ge with strange expressions, forced a smile as a greeting, and then went to class with their backpacks on.

"I didn't hit you, why are you acting like you've seen a ghost when you see me?"

Qin Ge gave a wry smile, then began packing his things, preparing to move out for a while.

The punishment of being placed on probation is not light, but Zhu Yanghe certainly won't let it go so easily.

As long as he stays in the dormitory, it's fine if Zhu Yanghe isn't there; if he is, he'll definitely try to cause trouble.

If he can't help but beat Zhu Yanghe up again, he'll definitely be unable to finish his studies.

If his family finds out he's been expelled from school, his parents will be furious!

Living outside makes it more convenient to cultivate oneself; it's quiet and worry-free.

After leaving the school, Qin Ge arrived at the Champs-Élysées Villa.

The environment here is very nice, it's just a little far from the school, but that's okay, Qin Ge doesn't plan to go back to school anytime soon.

With the end of the semester approaching, there are only a few classes left. The remaining classes will basically be used to highlight key points, and then classes will be suspended for review and exam preparation.

Returning to the Champs-Élysées Villa, I couldn't help but think of Qi Yingzi, who hadn't contacted Qin Ge since that day.

Qin Ge felt a little regretful. Last time, it was such a huge loss, and he wondered if he would ever have a chance to make up for it.
