My Arrogant Young Lady

"Tang Wendi, you're despicable!" My hand was still numb with pain, and I glared angrily into his eyes.

Tang Wendi's blow just now was extremely forceful. The steel pipe that hit me nearly cracked my hand. And with that blow, Tang Wendi clearly intended to kill. If I hadn't shielded Chai Jin in time, Chai Jin might very well have been crippled.

Seeing Tang Wendi's ruthless attack, I was seething with hatred. Just then, Tianlei, who was beside me, suddenly punched Tang Wendi in the nose, then stepped forward and punched him in the chest. After knocking him back, Tianlei pulled Tang Wendi back and punched him in the shoulder. Tianlei knocked Tang Wendi to his knees.

With a sneer, Tian Lei stomped heavily on Tang Wendi's body again, pressing him down and pinning him beneath his foot. "Tang Rendi, don't you know that to catch the thief, you must first catch the king? You're too close to us, too dangerous!"

In less than three seconds, Tian Lei easily trampled Tang Wendi under his foot. Seeing his swift and skillful movements, the thugs surrounding us all turned deathly pale with fright.

"Sigh, the young master is still no good. Miss, why don't we just cripple this kid? It's too boring to keep fighting like this." Tian Lei sighed.

"Hmm." After hearing Tian Lei's words, An Yao glanced at me with disappointment and nodded.

That disappointed look from An Yao stung my heart like a knife. They gave me the opportunity, but I lacked the ability to use it effectively. If it weren't for their help, I might have lost today. And the reason for my failure was my own incompetence.

Looking at An Yao silently, I couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness. But I've been a useless person for too long; what right do I have to betray their kindness? I could only smile, a quiet smile as I watched them. A bitter taste lingered in my mouth.

At that moment, Tang Wendi, who was standing at the foot of Tianlei, suddenly roared. He struggled violently, glaring at me with resentment and shouting, "Wang Qi, you piece of trash, you garbage! If you hadn't brought some helpers, you would have been fucking tortured by me. Look at you, you're like a dog, only good for being protected. You may have beaten me, but I will always despise you!"

“If you’re not satisfied, you can find someone more powerful to help you,” An Yao said coldly.

"Get out!" Tang Wendi roared.

"Let's just give up. I'm getting annoyed by him calling me." An Yao turned her head away.

"Yes, Miss." Tian Lei's eyes changed, and then he gently raised his right foot, preparing to stomp hard.

"Wait!" Suddenly, I thought for a moment and stopped the lightning.

"Your Highness, are you going to release him again?" Tianlei looked at me in surprise.

Without speaking to Tian Lei, I looked directly at Tang Wendi lying on the ground. Gritting my teeth, I thought for a moment and said to Tang Wendi, "Tang Wendi, what do I have to do for you to submit to me? What do I have to do for you to never bother me again?"

"Heh, I, Tang Wendi, will never submit to anyone." Tang Wendi glared at me fiercely, almost grinding his teeth to powder.

"So, a one-on-one duel?" I thought for a moment and asked.

"A one-on-one fight?" Tang Wendi was stunned when he heard my words.

“Yes, a one-on-one!” I nodded and said.

"Alright, shall we have a one-on-one fight?" Tang Wendi smiled, looking at me. Gradually, many of the thugs around us joined in the laughter. One of them looked at me like I was a monster, disdainfully saying, "You little brat, you really don't know what's good for you. I heard your school's one-on-one king is called Lu Zhicheng, but do you know what? Your off-campus one-on-one king is called Tang Wendi! He can beat three Lu Zhichengs!"

Chapter Sixty-Three: Ambush

The sky was clear, and the midday sun was becoming dazzling. But the air was cold, so cold it made me shiver. And around us, more and more students, eager to see what was happening, gradually gathered. The crowd was thick, so dense that the area outside our school was completely blocked. Being the center of attention, I couldn't help but frown slightly. Then, looking at Tang Wendi, who was ten years older than me, I realized I was playing with fire.

Just like that thug said, Tang Wendi is very strong. Even if he didn't say it, I could feel it. He's a head taller than me and much stronger. And he has a special aura about him, a kind of brutal aura that makes people want to back away.

At the same time, he was also the big boss in this area outside the school. He had many friends, and many people feared him. With just a word from him, he could summon hundreds of people to fight for him. This also meant that he possessed extraordinary strength. And when he wanted to deal with us, Thirteen Eagles betrayed us instantly. Even though those people were all Young Master Bao's brothers, they were still willing to become traitors to protect themselves.

As for me, my body remains weak. Although I've recovered from my illness, I haven't made any progress. I'm still the same frail me, Wang Xi who would fall over with a single punch. I have no fighting experience whatsoever, and I don't even know how to fight.

Seeing Tang Wendi, whose strength far surpassed mine, my clenched fists gradually became sweaty.

“Young Master, don’t be reckless. You are no match for him. Although he seems weak in front of us, he is still very strong. If we weren’t his opponents, I think there would be very few people among so many who could fight him. Why don’t we teach you some skills first, and you can fight him one-on-one in a month?” Tian Lei said to me with a solemn expression.

“Let him get up,” I said.

"Young Master, please don't be reckless. If you want to play around with him, that's fine. But there are too many onlookers today. It's a small matter if you suffer a loss, but it's not worth losing face. He's already been subdued by us, so why bother with anything more?" Di Huo couldn't help but come up and advise me.

"Help him up." I said expressionlessly.

"Young Miss, did we say something inappropriate and hurt the Prince? Young Miss, please persuade the Prince." Seeing that I was determined to go my own way, the clever Hurricane immediately understood what was going on.

"Let him get up." An Yao said, equally expressionless.

"Young Miss, what did you say?" Hurricane looked at her in surprise.

"So what if he suffers a loss? Even if it's embarrassing, what's the big deal? Tang Rendi is stronger than my brother and ten years older, so it's normal that my brother can't beat him. Let my brother try, let him suffer a bit. Otherwise, if he's always protected by us, even if he returns to the family, he'll be eaten by others," An Yao said coldly.

“But his internal injuries have only just healed. And there are too many onlookers today. If the prince loses, it will be even harder for him to establish authority in the future…!” Hurricane said.

“It doesn’t matter, we’re just passing through anyway,” An Yao said.

“But I’m afraid the Crown Prince will be discouraged and it will affect his morale in the future,” Hurricane said.

“Get Tang Rendi up,” An Yao said.

"Yes!" Hurricane sighed and looked at Thunder to the side.

Seeing that An Yao also agreed to Tang Wendi and me dueling, Tian Lei glanced at Tang Wendi, thought for a moment, and then let him go. Then he walked to Hurricane's side and whispered, "If the young master can't beat him later, you secretly use flying needles to shoot this kid's pressure points. Even if it arouses public anger and they swarm at him, it doesn't matter. The young master must not get hurt."

"No, none of you are allowed to help me!" Hearing Tianlei's whispers, I clenched my fists even tighter.

"What!?" Tianlei looked at me in surprise after hearing my words.

"Even if he beats me to death, none of you are allowed to help me. Otherwise, I will never go back to the family with you again," I said through gritted teeth.

"..." Tian Lei's expression changed after hearing my words.

A moment of silence followed. Tang Wendi, who had been lying on the ground, thought for a moment and then got up. He was a sorry sight; his nose, which had been struck by a thunderbolt, was bleeding profusely, the blood already dried on his face and collar. This made him look even more ferocious, like a demon crawling out of hell.

After stretching his body, Tang Wendi's eyes filled with rage as he looked at me. He spat a mouthful of bloody saliva onto the ground, pulled out a cigarette, lit it, and said, "You little brat, you dare to bring helpers to deal with me. I don't care where you hired these helpers from or how powerful they are. I'm going to fight you one-on-one. If they dare to lift a finger, I'll have my brothers cripple them all!"

As he spoke, Tang Wendi turned around and roared, "Listen up, all of you brothers! When I'm fighting this piece of trash one-on-one, if they dare to help me, all of you go for it! Don't worry about me!"

"Alright, if they dare to help, kill them! There are more of us than they are, even if they know a little martial arts, we'll have a few more tricks up our sleeves." A large group of people immediately shouted.

Hearing their response, Tang Wendi seemed quite satisfied. Then he looked at me and said, "Did you hear that? Even if your henchmen subdue me later, it won't matter. You've brought this upon yourself today, and even if you pray to God, it's useless!"

"What if your people help?" I asked coldly.

"What?" Upon hearing my words, Tang Wendi immediately burst into exaggerated laughter. Laughing loudly, he turned to his henchmen and said, "You guys, what did this idiot say?"

"Fuck you, stop bragging. Our Brother Wendi needs help? Are you fucking an idiot?" A large group of people immediately laughed and started cursing at the same time.

“Alright, then none of us will ask for help. Anyone who breaks the rules is a beast, worse than a pig or a dog!” I said.

"Your Highness!" Upon hearing my words, the four hall masters of Wind, Fire, Thunder and Lightning, as well as Mount Everest, all changed their expressions.

"Haha, great!" Tang Wendi laughed.

I watched as Tang Wendi's disdainful smile gradually froze. And I knew then that our battle was about to begin. Around us, people began to spontaneously form a circle around us.

In this battle, I was truly courting death. If I lost, I would pay a heavy price. I might even be killed by Tang Wendi. And what Hurricane said earlier was right: if I lost, even with their help in the future, it would be very difficult for me to regain my authority in our school.

But what if I win?

If I win, I will become famous overnight. If I defeat the strongest troublemaker both inside and outside the school, I will become their number one. From now on, I will never again be betrayed repeatedly by the Thirteen Eagles. Having established my authority, I will have the right to command them and make them do anything for me.

I must win. I never want to be looked down upon again. I want to become famous. I want to establish my own authority. I don't want to be protected by An Yao and the others forever. I don't want to be called a good-for-nothing forever…

"Trash, why aren't you doing it yet? Let me kill you in a minute. Fuck you!" Tang Wendi licked his teeth and cursed as he saw my eyes darting around.

My gaze changed at that moment. Being insulted about my mother had always been a taboo subject for me. Gritting my teeth, the resentment and anger that had accumulated within me for so long began to rise. Thinking of how Tang Wendi had tormented me, I gritted my teeth, roared, and charged forward.

"Useless trash!" Tang Wendi roared in anger upon seeing me. His eyes immediately turned fanatical. He had long wanted to kill me too, and as I charged at him, he kicked me hard.

Tang Wendi used a lot of force in that kick, and it created a whooshing sound as he kicked me. Years of fighting experience gave Tang Wendi the confidence to kick me down and then rush in to finish me off.

However, his expression changed after he kicked out. Because his kick missed completely.

He never dreamed of this. When he kicked me, I actually spun around on the spot. And this move was exactly what I had just learned from An Yao when she dodged someone else.

"Holy crap, he even has moves!?" Many of the thugs exclaimed in surprise when they saw that I had actually used martial arts moves to dodge Tang Wendi's attacks.

“Young Miss…” Hurricane, he couldn’t help but look at An Yao in surprise.

I was quite excited to have succeeded after only learning one move. The move that Tian Lei had just used quickly flashed through my mind, and I punched Tang Wendi hard in the nose.

With a sharp crack, my fist immediately delivered a real, tangible blow. Seeing Tang Wendi's surprised expression, my heart leaped with joy once more. By this time, my internal injuries had healed, and my body had regained the strength of a normal person. Tang Wendi's nose, which had just stopped bleeding, bled again from my punch.

At that very moment, my speed increased. I imagined the move Tian Lei had just used and quickly punched Tang Wendi in the chest. This punch sent Tang Wendi staggering backward, and then I grabbed his arm and pulled hard. Gritting my teeth, I leaped high and slammed my fist into his shoulder.

"Get lost!" Seeing my fist coming at him, Tang Wendi finally retaliated. With a roar, he clenched his huge fist and slammed it down on mine.

With a loud crack, our fists collided. Immediately after the impact, I felt a sharp pain in my fist and wrist. I was still too weak; my body was nowhere near as powerful as Tian Lei's. And because my body wasn't strong enough, I couldn't unleash his full power. Instead, at the most crucial moment, Tang Wendi's punch almost sent me flying.

I had only taken two steps back after landing when I saw Tang Wendi charging fiercely towards me. He kicked me in the stomach. Before I could even turn around to dodge, he sent me flying.

I immediately felt a sharp pain in my stomach, and my body went limp as I lay on the ground. At that moment, Tang Wendi rushed up again and kicked me hard in the waist, sending me flying.

My body immediately kicked up a trail of dirt on the ground, and Tang Wendi rushed up and kicked me, sending me flying. Wiping the blood from my nose, Tang Wendi thought for a moment and then rushed up again to deliver another kick, "Fuck you! You've only learned a few martial arts moves and you think you're so great? You dare to fight me one-on-one? I'll fuck you!"

"Fuck you!" Seeing Tang Wendi's follow-up kick, my eyes changed and I quickly somersaulted on the ground to dodge. But I had only dodged it for a moment when Tang Wendi kicked me again.

He kicked me, and I let out a muffled groan of pain. Thinking for a moment, I aimed for his next kick and reached out to grab it. I felt a sharp pain shoot through my fingers instantly. My fingers snapped with a cracking sound from the kick. But at the same time, I grabbed his trouser leg, and with a quick movement, I swept my body, striking his other leg.

With a thud, Tang Wendi collapsed to the ground. The crowd watching erupted in uproar; they never dreamed I could defeat Tang Wendi.

After I knocked Tang Wendi down, I immediately pounced on him and pinned him down. I punched him in the face, and quickly followed up with another punch.

My body ached terribly, but I was inexplicably excited. I'd discovered that Tang Wendi wasn't as powerful as the rumors said. He was indeed strong, very powerful, but he was no match for Tian Lei Di Huo and the others; he didn't know any martial arts at all!

Having already pinned Tang Wendi down and landed two punches, I suppressed my joy and unleashed a torrent of punches. Punch after punch, I watched as Tang Wendi relentlessly retaliated amidst the chaos. His blows hurt me deeply. But the pent-up frustration within me kept me from collapsing. Instead, I felt an inexplicable excitement; even after being punched so many times, I remained standing.

It was almost a head-on exchange of blows; every time I landed a punch, he'd retaliate. I was in a lot of pain, and he wasn't much better off. But gradually, I realized my strength was waning, and my punches weren't as powerful as before. Suddenly, he threw a vicious punch at me, sending me flying.

"Fuck you, this is so damn embarrassing! You actually hit me so many times!" Enraged, Tang Wendi rushed up and pinned me down, then punched me hard in the face with both fists.

I felt a numbness on my face, and then I saw stars. I wanted to hit him back, but I found that my fists had no strength at all.

In desperation, I gritted my teeth and told myself I couldn't lose. After being punched countless times by him, I suddenly used all my strength to stab two fingers into his eyes.

"Ah!" Tang Wendi yelled as I pierced him. Seeing him cover his eyes, I flipped him over and shook him off.

Then I laboriously crawled over and punched him twice. Seeing that he was only focused on his eyes and ignored me, I thought for a moment and then punched him on the head with all my might.

Perhaps Tang Wendi was injured before, or perhaps he underestimated me and fell for my dirty trick. But whatever the reason, as long as this punch lands on him, I will definitely injure him severely. Now my internal injuries have healed, and my strength is the same as a normal person's. I am no longer the weak Wang Xi I used to be; I can fight like a man now.

Excited, I felt the wind whistling through my fists. In the crowd, I saw An Yao staring at me with delighted eyes.

"I won!" I roared excitedly as my fist was about to hit Tang Wendi. But at that moment, my face changed as I clenched my fist.

I felt a sharp pain in my shoulder socket, and my entire right arm began to go numb. I collapsed to the ground, forcefully pulling a tiny silver needle from my shoulder socket…

"Damn it, who ambushed me?!" I threw the silver needles hard on the ground and couldn't help but let out a roar like a dragon.

"Fuck you, go to hell!" Tang Wendi suddenly recovered and punched me hard in the head.

Struck hard by Tang Wendi, my head buzzed. Then, I fell backward, as countless dark shadows slammed into my face...

"That's more fun!" A sweet, coquettish voice suddenly came to my ear.
