The Rise of a Special Forces Soldier Abandoned by a Wealthy Family

Zeng Long had just reached the door of Class 1 classroom when he heard a clear but obviously impatient scolding voice coming from inside. It was Lin Xiaoya.

"Tengfei! Now! Immediately! Get at least ten meters away! Xiaoyu and I are having a private conversation, what are you doing here, a grown man? Are you trying to be a third wheel?"

Zeng Long paused, raised an eyebrow, and stepped inside.

In the classroom, almost all the students looked on in confusion at the seats in the middle of the room.

There, Lin Xiaoya stood with her hands on her hips, her pretty face full of displeasure, gesturing at Tengfei.

Sitting next to her was Zeng Lingyu, who had a gentle and refined demeanor.

The students exchanged unspoken questions through their eyes:

Who exactly is this new, incredibly beautiful and adorable classmate?

It's one thing to have a good relationship with Zeng Lingyu, but how dare he be so arrogant as to tell Tengfei to "get lost"?

Who is Tengfei? He's a well-known vigilante in the class and even the whole school, a powerful young master from a wealthy family in Beijing!

However, to everyone's astonishment, Tengfei, who was publicly reprimanded, showed no anger whatsoever.

Instead, as if receiving a royal decree, he nodded repeatedly, his face plastered with an almost fawning smile:

"Yes, yes, yes! Sister Xiaoya is right! I'll leave right now, I promise I'll keep a distance of more than ten meters!"

After saying that, he didn't hesitate at all. He turned around and quickly retreated to the corner of the classroom, even secretly measuring the distance with his feet to make sure he met the standard.

The whole class: "???" What's going on? Has the chivalrous protector changed gender? Or has the world suddenly become magical?

Just then, a calm yet undeniably powerful voice rang out at the classroom door, instantly drawing everyone's attention.

"Lin Xiaoya! Come out here!"

Zeng Long stood at the door, his face unreadable, his gaze fixed on the smug little girl.

"Oh! Brother! What brings you here?"

The moment Lin Xiaoya saw Zeng Long, her arrogant and domineering demeanor vanished without a trace.

Like a punctured balloon, it immediately became incredibly obedient, trotting over to Zeng Long's side and giving Zeng Lingyu a wink.

Zeng Lingyu immediately stood up and followed, softly calling out, "Brother Long."

This scene, in the eyes of the whole class, was no less than another thunderbolt!

Damn! This Zeng Long... In the eyes of all the students in Class 1, his image instantly upgraded from "school heartthrob and celebrity" to "an even more terrifying existence"!

The little devil that even Tengfei wouldn't dare to provoke was actually as docile as a kitten in front of him?!

Zeng Long glared at Lin Xiaoya, who had leaned close to his face, with annoyance:

"I came to check on you because I was worried you'd cause trouble again. Well, Lin Xiaoya, you've become the school bully on your first day? Ordering Tengfei to roll? What, are you going to roll me down with you next?"

"No, no, no... Brother Long! How could I dare! I swear to God!"

Lin Xiaoya immediately shook her head vigorously, waving her hands nervously, and hurriedly explained:

"I was just chatting with Sister Xiaoyu about some private things between girls, and Tengfei was always sticking his ear out like a little shadow, what's with that?!"

As she spoke, she secretly winked at Zeng Lingyu.

This is a unique form of body language communication between the two sisters, who have just formed an "alliance" in a short period of time.

Zeng Lingyu immediately understood, gently shook Zeng Long, and softly chimed in:

"Brother Long, Xiaoya didn't react immediately, so she spoke a little too loudly and in a a bit too directly."

As she spoke, her gaze shifted to Tengfei in the corner, her tone carrying a hint of seriousness as she inquired, but in reality, she was making a definitive assessment.

"Tengfei, you tell me, is this how things are?"

Tengfei felt incredibly wronged! Was it wrong for me to just go away?

But what could he dare say? Among the three people in front of him was Zeng Long, whom he revered like a god.

One is a little devil who dares to take a gun and shoot directly at several young masters of wealthy families.

There's also "Xiaoyu," whom he desperately wants to protect. He can't afford to offend either of them!

So, Young Master Teng could only swallow his pride and grit his teeth, forcing a genuinely "sincere" smile and nodding repeatedly.

"Yes, yes, yes! Xiaoyu is right! Sister Xiaoya is just a bit too straightforward. I was oblivious and interrupted their conversation! I should leave, I was right to leave!"

The sight of him made the surrounding classmates' teeth ache, while at the same time they were deeply shocked by Zeng Long's "dominance".

Zeng Long stared at the perfectly coordinated "three," especially Teng Fei's "I'm doing this willingly, I'm happy" expression, and was speechless. Since the parties involved had no objections, what could he say?

"Alright," he waved his hand helplessly, glancing at the three clowns, "Let's go eat in the cafeteria together."

"Yay! Brother Long is the best!" Lin Xiaoya cheered immediately, her mood instantly brightening. She also secretly gave Zeng Lingyu a victorious smile, as if she had allied with him.

Thus, the group of four consisted of Zeng Long in the middle, with the chattering Lin Xiaoya and the gentle, smiling Zeng Lingyu on his left.

On the right, a procession of horses, like huskies taking flight, formed a striking sight as they headed towards the cafeteria.

The cafeteria at Jingqing University is bustling with activity at this moment.

When Zeng Long and his group walked in, the originally noisy cafeteria seemed to be muted, instantly becoming several degrees quieter.

Almost all the students' eyes were focused on it.

Zeng Long was already a popular figure on campus recently, and surprisingly, he was accompanied by both Zeng Lingyu and Lin Xiaoya at the same time!

Zeng Lingyu is recognized as one of the school beauties, pure and gentle;

Although Lin Xiaoya had just arrived, her elfin beauty and lively temperament had already quickly won over a large number of students.

What's even more eye-catching is that young master Tengfei, known as the "flower protector maniac"!

At this moment, he was acting like a lackey, running around helping them get food and utensils, with a... fawning smile on his face?

Holy crap! What an incredible combination!

"Zeng Long is too fierce! Isn't he afraid Teng Fei will go berserk?"

"Look at Tengfei, does he look like he's about to explode? He's clearly having a blast!"

"Could Zeng Long be even more powerful than Teng Fei? Impossible! What about Chen Yifeng? He's an even more terrifying figure than Teng Fei!"

The whispers, like gnats, echoed in every corner of the cafeteria, filled with surprise, confusion, envy, and jealousy.

Zeng Long's three roommates—Zhu Yiqun, Du Ziteng, and Hao Shuai—were also sitting not far away.

Seeing this, Zhu Yiqun's eyes lit up. He nudged Du Ziteng beside him and whispered excitedly:

"Did you see that? Did you see that? My brother Long is truly a god! It seems that at Jingqing University, he's the real tiger! The most hidden dragon among us! Probably on par with Chen Yifeng."

Du Ziteng glanced at him, secretly scoffing to himself:

"Chen Yifeng? He's nothing! You didn't see how that guy scurried over to serve you the moment Brother Long casually beckoned with a finger!"

However, he remembered Zeng Long's instructions and could not say these words to anyone. He could only keep them to himself. Looking at Zhu Yiqun's proud expression, he felt both amused and helpless.

Just as everyone was stunned by what they were seeing, a small commotion broke out again at the entrance of the cafeteria.

A stunningly beautiful and aloof figure walked in with a calm and composed gait, carrying a simple plate.

With a slender figure and a cool, elegant demeanor like the moonlight, she is another recognized top campus beauty – Yan Ruge.

Her appearance already attracted a lot of attention. However, her next move left everyone who was following her completely stunned.

Yan Ruge's gaze swept around the cafeteria before finally settling precisely on Zeng Long's table.

Then, under countless incredulous gazes, she walked straight over, stopped at the table, her cool gaze fixed on Zeng Long, and her lips parted slightly, her voice like jade beads falling onto a plate:

"Is it convenient to come along?"

"Boom—!" The entire cafeteria erupted in chaos, as if a bomb had been dropped on it!

Two of the most beautiful girls at Beijing Qing University, Zeng Lingyu and Yan Ruge, have actually both gathered around Zeng Long?!

This is simply defying the heavens! Everyone held their breath, waiting for Zeng Long's response—

At the same time, she subconsciously searched for another person's figure—Chen Yifeng! Who didn't know that Chen Yifeng had been pursuing Yan Ruge?

However, the absurdity of the situation seems destined to continue to redefine everyone's understanding today.

As if to confirm everyone's guess, Chen Yifeng's figure indeed appeared at the entrance of the cafeteria.

He still maintained his aloof and arrogant demeanor, his sharp gaze sweeping across the cafeteria.

When his gaze fell on Zeng Long's table, especially when he saw Yan Ruge sitting calmly next to Zeng Long, his pupils suddenly contracted!

His face instantly turned extremely ugly, and a trace of humiliation, fear, and a barely perceptible hint of cold hatred flashed in his eyes.

To everyone's surprise, Chen Yifeng did not go over to assert his dominance as usual, and... he didn't even get any food!

He stared intently in that direction for a few seconds, then, as if fleeing from some monstrous flood, he abruptly turned around and strode away from the cafeteria without looking back!

He's gone? Chen Yifeng... he just left like that?! He didn't even dare to face me?!

At that moment, the entire cafeteria fell silent. All the students who witnessed this scene experienced a brief mental freeze.

Zhu Yiqun's mouth gaped open, wide enough to fit an egg, and after a long while, he murmured, "My Brother Long... just who the hell is he...?"

Du Ziteng watched Chen Yifeng's departing figure, a knowing smile curving his lips, and thought to himself:

"My brother Long is the real tiger. What you've seen is just the tip of the iceberg."

Zeng Long seemed completely oblivious to the reactions around him.

He glanced up at Yan Rugo standing by the table, his face showing no surprise. He simply nodded casually and pointed to the empty seat next to him.

"sit."

This seemingly ordinary word appears to have drawn a temporary pause for today's "gathering of heroes" at Beijing-Tsinghua University.
