Gao Wu: I'll enjoy the benefits, but you'll bear the side effects.
Chapter 65 Surrounded by Enemies on All Sides
Sister Wen's face instantly turned extremely ugly, her brows furrowed tightly, and her eyes were filled with shock and worry. She never expected that Gao Jie would agree to such a thing.
In her view, this was no ordinary matter; it was like lighting a powder keg, which could cause a huge mess and lead to a major disaster at any moment.
Moreover, the seriousness of this matter is no joke. Just think of the Qin family's influence in Jinling City.
That's a fifth-tier power that can make the entire city of Jinling tremble with a stomp of its foot, and its patriarch is also a fifth-tier figure serving in the Kyoto Military Region!
They are now struggling to make a living on someone else's turf, and they have to be extremely careful in everything they do, as if walking on thin ice.
But Gao Jie, on the contrary, dared to provoke the Qin family and even threatened to settle accounts with them. This was simply provoking trouble.
Doesn't he know what this means? The danger lurking behind it is simply immeasurable.
"What on earth did you do? Do you even know how much power the Qin family wields in Jinling?"
Sister Wen's voice unconsciously rose a few decibels, filled with urgency and resentment.
"Besides, we're begging for food on their turf right now, and you dare to go and settle scores with the Qin family? Do you know what that means?"
As she spoke, she shook her head repeatedly, her anxiety becoming increasingly apparent.
"Take my advice and let this matter rest. Don't actually help him, or we might not be able to stay here anymore. You know the Qin family is not simple."
Sister Wen tried to persuade Gao Jie with earnest words, hoping to make him realize the seriousness of the situation and prevent him from acting impulsively and dragging everyone into an abyss of no return.
The Qin family is quite powerful in Jinling. They have deep roots and many branches, and their influence is not limited to a single field, but rather spreads like a huge net to all walks of life.
With the protection of the old man from the fifth-rank military region, the Qin family could be said to be at the height of their power in Jinling.
Whether it's a small business on the street or a large transaction in a high-rise building, the Qin family's influence can be seen almost everywhere, and traces of their involvement can be found in almost every business.
Especially Qin Rilang, the enemy of Little Tyrant, is no ordinary guy.
He's like an octopus, with his hands practically reaching into every corner of Jinling City; he's incredibly well-informed.
In other words, if he wanted to, he could get all sorts of information from various places, and no little thing could escape his notice.
It has to be said that this matter is quite complicated. The interests and interpersonal relationships involved are so complex that they are like a tangled mess, making one's head ache just thinking about it.
Gao Jie hadn't expected things to be so complicated. No wonder the Little Tyrant was invincible all around, yet he never dared to take revenge.
I used to find it strange that Little Tyrant was so arrogant, but now that I think about it, everything makes sense.
Moreover, judging from his previous challenges everywhere, Gao Jie immediately understood that this kid must have been fighting people on the Qin family's territory.
He probably wanted to gradually accumulate strength and find an opportunity to take revenge, but he never succeeded and ended up being chased and retaliated against.
"There's nothing I can do. I've already agreed. Do you think he'll agree to it if I change my mind now?"
Gao Jie sighed helplessly, a resolute look appearing on his face.
"Since I've agreed, I'm prepared to see this through. Whether it succeeds or not, I'm determined to give an answer. As for what others think, that's their business."
He knew in his heart that since he had agreed to this, he had made a promise, and he could not easily break it, no matter what. Even if there were mountains of knives and seas of fire ahead, he had to bite the bullet and go for it.
Abao looked at him, her eyes filled with a hint of helplessness and regret.
"I know you're a loyal person, but sometimes being too loyal isn't a good thing, and I'm not kidding, you understand?"
Ah Bao knew the danger involved and wanted to persuade Gao Jie again, telling him not to be so stubborn and not to risk getting himself and everyone else in trouble for the sake of a moment of loyalty.
Gao Jie simply nodded, but didn't say anything more. He had already made up his mind, and it would be difficult for others to change his mind at this point.
As for other matters, they had nothing to do with him. He was now preoccupied with how to deal with the thorny issue concerning the Qin family.
Sister Wen glanced at Abao and said softly.
"You can go out now. I need to talk to him about this. Since things have already gotten this far, we can't keep arguing about it."
She thought that perhaps if she persuaded Gao Jie again, he might change his mind, after all, this matter concerned everyone's life and death.
"If you really want to take over the Little Tyrant, I have an idea for you. I mean, we should just use it..."
Sister Wen tentatively expressed her thoughts, saying that at this time, perhaps it would be better to let Little Tyrant take the lead, and they could act according to the situation behind the scenes.
Gao Jie shook his head and said with a serious expression.
"This is really inappropriate. What if the problem really gets out of hand? Little Tyrant trusts me and entrusted me with the task of revenge. How can I treat him like this? A person has to have a conscience."
He felt that such scheming behind people's backs was against his principles and he could not do it under any circumstances.
Sister Wen was surprised that Gao Jie would think this way; it seems the situation is more complicated than she imagined.
For a moment, she could only sigh and shake her head helplessly, knowing in her heart that once Gao Jie made up his mind, not even nine oxen could pull him back.
Gao Jie then stood up and said calmly.
"Don't worry, I'm well aware of this matter, and I also know how things will turn out."
After saying that, he turned and left, his steps steady and firm, without saying anything more, leaving Sister Wen standing there, watching his departing figure with a worried expression.
Wenjie wanted to say something twice, her lips parted slightly, but she swallowed the words back. Even after everyone left, the words she wanted to say were still stuck in her throat, and in the end, they could only turn into a long sigh and dissipate into the air.
When Gao Jie returned to school, his thoughts were still immersed in the complicated events that had occurred before. He kept replaying those thorny situations in his mind, his brows furrowed slightly, and his face looked solemn.
But just then, with a "bang," the door was suddenly pushed open, and Huang Xu rushed in, carrying a steaming bowl of rice. His hurried and flustered manner made it seem as if the sky was about to fall.
"Brother, why are you still lying here?"
Huang Xu's voice was loud and urgent, making it particularly clear in the quiet dormitory.
"Didn't you receive the message?"
As he spoke, he quickly walked to Gao Jie's bedside, his eyes wide open and his face full of anxiety.
"Let me tell you, things are already in trouble, and very troublesome at that. Stop standing here, let's get going."
Huang Xu reached out and tried to pull Gao Jie up, as if some great disaster would befall them if they were a second later.
"I'm really confused. Didn't you hear anything? Xu Rourou has already transferred schools. I just saw her leaving the school gate with several other people. I have no idea where she went."
While panting heavily, Huang Xu quickly delivered this bombshell news, his face filled with disbelief, clearly astonished by the sudden turn of events.
Upon hearing this, Gao Jie's expression changed instantly. His already somewhat solemn face became even more gloomy, and his eyes were filled with astonishment and surprise. He never expected that Xu Wenfeng would use such a trick to take his daughter away silently!
There's definitely more to this than meets the eye, Gao Jie knew. This might just be the prelude to Xu Wenfeng's plan to take action against him.
So he hurriedly got up, not even bothering to straighten his clothes, and followed Huang Xu out.
The two ran as fast as they could, their footsteps echoing in the stairwell, as if adding to the tension and urgency of the atmosphere.
When they rushed to the gate, they found it deserted; no one had left, not even a car exhaust fumes. Their initial hope was instantly dashed, like a bucket of cold water poured over them.
Huang Xu couldn't help but shake his head and sigh helplessly.
"Look at them, they just turned around and left. What's going on?"
He frowned, scratched his head, and looked puzzled.
"Why would they take their daughter away so quickly? Or does she want to transfer schools?"
"I just saw them take a lot of things. It seems they're really not planning to go to school here anymore?"
Huang Xu recalled the scene he had just witnessed while analyzing it, trying to find some clues from the slightest traces.
Hearing Huang Xu's words, Gao Jie understood that Xu Wenfeng was probably preparing to make a move against him.
Otherwise, why would they take Xu Rourou away for no reason?
Once Xu Rourou is no longer in this city, he will definitely be able to deal with me more easily without any worries.
Thinking of this, Gao Jie frowned, a bad premonition rising in his heart. The situation seemed to be getting more and more complicated and more and more unfavorable to him.
He never expected things to turn out this way.
It was already troublesome enough, and now this has happened, so the problem is definitely getting complicated.
Like a tangled mess, it got tighter and tighter, leaving him somewhat confused.
Seeing that he seemed a bit listless, Huang Xu took his hand, shook it, and said something, somewhat puzzled.
"What's wrong with you? I'm talking to you, snap out of it!"
"The person is already gone, shouldn't you do something about it? If you like them, you should try to win them over."
Huang Xu looked at him with a disappointed expression. He had thought that Gao Jie was so distraught because he liked Xu Rourou.
Gao Jie looked puzzled, wondering what nonsense he was talking about.
They even found his words ridiculous, shaking their heads and saying with a mixture of laughter and tears.
"Bro, what on earth are you thinking about? I didn't talk to you about any random nonsense."
"Besides, I have never dated Xu Rourou. Can you please stop overthinking and taking it personally?"
Gao Jie explained helplessly that he had no time to think about such romantic matters; his mind was preoccupied with how to deal with the complicated situation before him.
Huang Xu couldn't help but roll his eyes and purse his lips.
"Something feels off. If you're not dating her, why is she taking her daughter away?"
He still felt there must be some reason behind this, otherwise, this whole thing was too strange.
Hearing this, Gao Jie was also a little puzzled. It seemed that what he said made some sense. Why did they have to take the person away?
What is the reason behind this?
Moreover, as things stand, there seems to be something strange about it that I can't quite put my finger on, but when I think about it carefully, I can't quite put my finger on it. It's like there's a layer of fog covering everything, making it impossible to see the truth.
Thinking of this, Gao Jie couldn't help but shake his head, because he seemed to have realized that he had overlooked something very important.
Could it be that Xu Rourou truly likes him and Xu Wenfeng has discovered it?
Or perhaps it wasn't because of Hou Youcai's affair that Xu Wenfeng targeted her. So what was the reason?
Which one is true?
Gao Jie was puzzled and couldn't help but shake his head again, his doubts deepening.
Afterwards, he followed Huang Xu back to the dormitory. Although he had something on his mind, he did not appear flustered at all, and his steps remained steady.
But at that moment, someone in the dormitory shouted at the top of their lungs.
"Gao Jie, someone's looking for you. They want you to go down there. Brother, you're really something."
The tone carried a hint of teasing and envy, and it was unclear where this so-called "amazing" came from.
Gao Jie looked puzzled, thinking to himself that he hadn't done anything impressive lately, so what was going on?
Huang Xu, on the other hand, immediately immersed himself in the game world as soon as he returned to his dormitory, and was currently chatting and arguing with others on the microphone.
The shouts and curses were all mixed together, making a noisy scene, and he didn't even notice what was happening around him.
Thinking of this, Gao Jie couldn't help but shake his head and simply got up to see what was going on!
After he went downstairs, he realized that it was Huang Muran who had come to find him.
Seeing the familiar face, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to himself that something terrible had happened.
It turned out to be a false alarm.
