My Arrogant Young Lady

"Great! Give me your phone number!" Young Master Bao shouted excitedly.

“Okay…” Wang Che smiled and took out his phone with his slender fingers.

"Heh..." Seeing this scene, An Yao, who was next to me, let out a cold laugh. Zhang Xuan, who was sitting in front, also came over. She glared at Wang Che and said, "An Yao, your sister seems to be even more of a green tea b*tch than you."

“Yes, and it looks even more cheap and low-end than you.” An Yao sneered.

"It's so annoying. Ever since she transferred here today, a whole bunch of boys have come over to watch her, making it impossible for her to study properly," Zhang Xuan said.

"Why don't we join forces to oust her and get rid of her?" After thinking for a moment, An Yao looked at Zhang Xuan.

“Okay, let’s get her away and then we’ll fight!” Zhang Xuan immediately agreed and took An Yao’s small hand.

Seeing the two girls unite, I gave a wry smile. I thought to myself, this is for the best; it will save them from arguing all the time, and getting Wang Che away will make me much safer.

But at that moment, Wang Che suddenly raised his clear eyes and looked at me. With a gentle smile, Wang Che walked towards me in front of everyone.

In that instant, I became the center of attention again. Seeing everyone looking at me with astonishment, their gazes filled with a complex mix of emotions—envy, jealousy, and anger—my heart began to pound wildly.

"Brother, Che'er misses you so much..." As she spoke, her eyes reddened slightly, and she gently hugged me.

"..." She hugged me. My heart pounded even harder. At the same time, a strange feeling welled up inside me.

"Green Tea, what are you doing? Let go of Wang Xi right now!" Zhang Xuan shouted angrily when she saw Wang Che hugging me.

Without getting angry, Wang Che calmly released me. Then he smiled. Looking at Zhang Xuan's angry face, he asked, "Brother, is this your girlfriend? She's so beautiful, she makes me feel ashamed."

"What?" Zhang Xuan was stunned upon hearing Wang Che's words.

"Hello, my name is Wang Che, and I'm Wang Xi's younger sister. I should call you sister-in-law, right? You're so beautiful, you're such a delight to behold." With a smile, Wang Che politely extended her slender, jade-like hand.

"Really?" Upon hearing Wang Che's words, Zhang Xuan's pretty face immediately turned red.

"Yes, you look very elegant. Your school uniform looks so new, did you buy it in the laundry room near the girls' dormitory? Your family must be very wealthy, to be able to wear new school uniforms so often. And your shoes, did you buy them at the Printemps department store in Paris? I saw them last time, and I really liked them." Wang Che smiled.

"Haha, hahaha... These shoes are only a little over two thousand, you can buy them anytime you want. Little sister, you speak so sweetly, it makes people feel so comfortable. You are also very beautiful, your temperament is intoxicating..." Zhang Xuan laughed, her smile wide open, she was indescribably happy.

"I can afford to buy them, but my style doesn't match these shoes. Are you free after school? Could you help me pick out some shoes?" Wang Che smiled.

"Okay, but my taste isn't great. You're so beautiful, I'm afraid I won't be able to find nice shoes to match a beauty like you..."

"Sister Xuan, don't be modest. It's true that Che'er can't compare to a beauty like you..."

As the two girls chatted and laughed, the surrounding boys all held their breath and stared at them. An Yao's expression gradually turned grim. Ever since I saw her, she had remained so calm. But at this moment, An Yao began to lose her composure.

In a corner of the classroom, a chubby girl glared angrily at them. Then, the chubby girl said hatefully, "Green tea bitch...!"

"Sister, why don't we go home together after school? I forgot to introduce you, this lovely sister is very nice to me. She even brought me to class this morning." Seeing that the chubby girl had scolded him, Wang Che immediately went over to introduce Zhang Xuan.

"Stop it, stop it! I'm not going to go with you guys after school. I'm so ugly, and my family has no money. I'd rather not play with you rich girls." The chubby girl's face immediately turned panicked.

“Sister, what are you saying? Everyone is equal. There’s no such thing as beauty or ugliness in this world. Besides, you’re not ugly at all. You look very cute,” Wang Che said.

"You, you shouldn't say anymore." Upon hearing Wang Che's words, the chubby girl immediately became shy.

Seeing that more and more people were supporting Wang Che, I thought for a moment and gently took An Yao's hand. Then, I gave An Yao a helpless pout, thinking to myself, "It's over. This time, we're probably going to lose everything..."

Chapter Sixty-Seven: Wang Che's Secret

The entire day was a chaotic mess, like a marketplace. Our homeroom teacher saw it but said nothing, seemingly quite fond of Wang Che. We, on the other hand, already knew how dangerous Wang Che was and had been on high alert. But no matter how careful we were, she still managed to infiltrate our ranks.

In the blink of an eye, Wang Che and Zhang Xuan had become very close. Even my loyal chubby sister had succumbed to Wang Che's sweet words. As for Young Master Bao, he was completely infatuated with her. Her supporters were growing rapidly, and this place was about to become her domain.

At this point, if we confront Wang Che or show any hostility towards him, we could very well become public enemy number one. People will think we're evil, that we're abusing our power. They might see us as thugs and collectively hate and ostracize us. Even if An Yao and Hurricane are both martial arts masters, they'd be helpless in this situation. We could only watch helplessly as we fall into Wang Che's carefully laid trap.

"It's a good thing you weren't deceived by her, otherwise we would have been completely wiped out," An Yao said coldly.

"If she hadn't ambushed me and secretly shot me with a flying needle, I think I might have truly been deceived by her beautiful appearance." Sitting next to An Yao, I sighed softly.

"Is there a good way to get rid of her?" An Yao asked me.

"Huh?" I looked at An Yao in surprise after hearing her words.

“Sigh, she’s got me all flustered. I can’t think of a single way to deal with her right now. This time, it’s up to you. I’m no match for her in terms of cunning,” An Yao said.

After hearing An Yao's words, I thought to myself, "There's always someone stronger, and one mountain is always higher than another." When I first saw An Yao, I felt she was the most beautiful girl in the world. Her气质 (qi zhi - a combination of temperament, bearing, and aura), her intelligence—I admired her inexplicably all the time. And now, I realize that my younger siblings are truly outstanding. An Yao is very smart, but she's not good at scheming. When it comes to scheming, Wang Che is a master among masters.

"Defeating her is impossible, I think. I just hope to maintain the current situation and prevent her from losing Lu Zhicheng and Tianlei Dihuo." I thought for a moment and gave a bitter smile.

"Okay." An Yao nodded gently.

"Furthermore, we cannot show any hostility towards her. We can only coexist peacefully with her. Otherwise, it will definitely incur the hatred of the people." As I spoke, I looked at the crowd surrounding Wang Che.

“Yes,” An Yao said.

"It seems that my brother and I have no choice but to fight side by side against Wang Che. We must be careful not to fall into her trap and be ambushed by her," I said.

“I’ll start teaching you martial arts tonight. Our little sister is not only cunning, but also extremely skilled in martial arts. Her master is a master of hidden weapons; even Hurricane is no match for her. I don’t expect you to defeat her; I just hope you can escape if you fall into her hands,” An Yao said.

"By the way, could you tell me about the current situation in our family?" Intrigued by her family again, I thought for a moment and asked her.

"What do you want to know?" An Yao asked me.

After listening to An Yao's words, I looked at Wang Che in the distance and thought for a moment before saying, "It's about who's in our family, who the important figures are, who supports our younger siblings, what their backgrounds are, and how powerful their maternal families are."

“Brother, our Wang family is very powerful and has a complex structure. If it weren’t for our layered relationships with many other forces, I think our family might have been wiped out during that family upheaval more than ten years ago. You will learn about the specifics of the family later. You won’t remember too much if I tell you, so let me just give you a brief introduction to Wang Che.”

“Wang Che, she’s three months younger than me. Her mother is a pretty girl who likes to joke around and is very kind to us. In terms of how much our fathers dote on her, her mother is just as much as our mothers. The difference is the influence of our maternal family, our master, and the adults in our family who support us.”

"In our family, power is roughly divided into several factions. Some factions favor Wang Che more, some favor me more, and some favor the other children. But because you are the eldest son, as long as they know you are not dead, or that you have not committed any heinous crimes, then all factions will support you without any reason. This is your innate advantage. You also know about your maternal family's power; your uncle is Zhao Huangdi, the top big brother in the province, and your maternal family's status is third in the family. You also know about my maternal family; my maternal family's status is second in the family. The one with the highest status in my maternal family is our youngest brother, the seventh brother. Wang Che's master is quite good, and her maternal family's power is also quite good, but she can only rank fifth in the family."

"Third from last?" I thought for a moment and asked in surprise.

“Yes, Wang Che’s family is very wealthy; they’re now the richest family in the provincial capital. But they’re legitimate business people; they don’t have many connections in either the legitimate or underworld circles, unlike your uncle, Zhao Huangdi. Zhao Huangdi himself is a master. His henchmen, including the one in the dragon robe, are also highly skilled, and they keep a pack of ruthless henchmen under their command. To put it bluntly, Wang Che’s family is rich, but they’re not very useful. As for her fiancé’s family, I heard he’s a terrible person. Two years ago, the stock market crash ruined his family. He’s been in jail several times for drug use and womanizing, and it was only through Wang Che’s family’s help that he got out,” An Yao said.

"Wang Che, she also has a fiancé?" I looked at An Yao in surprise.

“Yes, in order to make our family stronger, the elders have arranged for many of us to marry into other families. Only by having complex relationships with many families can our family remain standing. Wang Che is unlucky. His father-in-law is a good man, but his fiancé is a scumbag who is incompetent and always causing trouble. Unlike your fiancée, who comes from royalty, is beautiful, and is an extremely noble young lady,” An Yao said.

"It's also to avoid marrying that scumbag that Wang Che has always wanted to inherit the family business. Only by inheriting the family business can she change her fate and avoid marrying that scumbag."

"You mean, only if Wang Che becomes the head of the family can she break off the engagement?" Hearing An Yao's words, a strange feeling welled up in my heart.

“Yes.” An Yao nodded.

"Does she have to inherit the family fortune to break off the engagement? Doesn't her father have the right to break off the engagement on her behalf?" I asked.

“I’ve already said it, the family is too big, and there are too many things involved. Many family matters require everyone to make decisions, and even the head of the family can’t change things. Only when Wang Che becomes the head of the family can she change this situation. Because becoming the head of the family means that her status will be more noble, and the elders in the family will never allow a noble head of the family to marry a scumbag,” An Yao said.

"If I become the head of the family, can I break off the engagement?" I asked after thinking for a moment.

"No way!" An Yao immediately glared at me fiercely.

"Why?" I asked.

“Because Yehenara Xier comes from the royal family, and her family’s power is comparable to our royal family. Although she is sometimes a bit willful, her character has always been excellent. You have no reason to break off the engagement with a girl like that. Unless, you refuse your status as the crown prince and are willing to become a son of a concubine,” An Yao said.

"Haha!" I laughed immediately after hearing An Yao's words.

"What are you laughing at?" An Yao glared at me fiercely.

Seeing the anger in An Yao's eyes, I was still overjoyed. Then, I couldn't help but say with a smile, "If that's the case, that's wonderful!"

"Hmm?" An Yao's eyes brightened.

Holding An Yao's soft little hand, I said with a grin, "Little sister, now that you mention it, I feel sorry for Wang Che. Since she wants to be the heir and break off the engagement, why don't I give her the position? I happen to have someone I like and don't want to be with that Miss Xi'er anymore. I'll give the position to Wang Che, let him become the head of the family and break off the engagement. Then I can obediently be a concubine's son, go home to see Mom and Dad, and then be with Zhang Xuan properly. It's a perfect solution!"

"Brother, you're so smart!" Overjoyed, An Yao couldn't help but grab my other hand.

"Yes!" I exclaimed, beaming with joy as I held hands with An Yao.

"But have you thought about it? If you give the position of heir to Wang Che, then Wang Che will become everyone's target. She is very cunning, but that's just petty cleverness, and her martial arts skills aren't the best. The other children in our family are also very capable. Wang Che will be killed by them within two months. When Wang Che is dead, everyone will still kill each other. They will not only kill Wang Che, but they will also kill you and me one by one, and your Zhang Xuan will definitely be implicated as well. And the Yehenara family, they will be furious when they know that you have become an illegitimate son. They will think that the Wang family looks down on them and deliberately demoted you to an illegitimate son to mock them. They will definitely send a large number of experts to launch a major attack on our Wang family." An Yao smiled as she looked at me.

Seeing An Yao smile, I felt she was indescribably beautiful. If she could smile more often, she would definitely be more beautiful than Wang Che. But looking at her smile, my heart sank. I knew she was indirectly mocking me, mocking my naive thinking.

"What should I do?" I wondered.

"Let the crown prince be given to Wang Che, and let Wang Che be killed by everyone. Then, use the power of the Yehenara family to wipe out our clan," An Yao said happily.

"Get lost!" Seeing that she was still mocking me, I couldn't help but glare at her.

"Hehe...!" An Yao glared at me fiercely.

We remained silent. After a while, I thought for a moment and asked An Yao, "Then, shall we defeat Wang Che? Once I become the head of the family, I can help her break off the engagement?"

"Whatever!" An Yao was a little angry after I scolded her, and her cute little face was haughty and she didn't want to talk to me.

"Don't be angry, I was just kidding. Let's team up, okay?" Seeing that she was angry, I took her little hand and coaxed her.

"You should chase these flies away first, they're annoying me," An Yao said, pouting, looking at the boys in the class who were surrounding Wang Che.

"Okay!" I smiled and gently nudged An Yao's soft body. Then, I looked at the boys in the class, thought for a moment, and said, "Young Master Bao, come here for a second!"

"What are you doing!" Young Master Bao said without turning his head, still staring at Wang Che like a lovesick fool.

"Come here. I need to talk to you!" I said.

"What are you doing?!" Looking at Wang Che, Young Master Bao walked towards me.

I glanced at Young Master Bao, who was dressed in designer brands, and said angrily, "Young Master Bao, you're really useless!"

"What's wrong with me?" Young Master Bao asked in surprise.

"You like my sister, don't you?" I asked.

"Yes, I'm practically head over heels for her. Young Master, please, put in a good word for me." After hearing my words, Young Master Bao finally looked at me with his eyes.

"I'll definitely put in a good word for you. But I feel you're useless, really useless. Since you like Wang Che so much, how can you let so many people compete with you for her? Look at your rivals, they're all surrounding Wang Che, clearly they don't respect you at all. Being surrounded by so many people every day, even if Wang Che has a good temper, she'll get annoyed, right? And you, you can't even protect her properly, sigh..." As I spoke, I sighed, pretending to be heartbroken.

As soon as I finished speaking, I clearly saw Young Master Bao's expression change. His infatuated look vanished, instantly replaced by a ferocious expression. He glared angrily at the suitors in the class and immediately walked over, cursing, "Fuck you, trying to steal my woman?"

"Young Master Bao, who are you insulting?" a boy who was doing well in school asked, pushing up his glasses.

"Get out, all of you get out of here! From today onwards, none of you should bother Wang Che anymore. Get the hell out of here!" Young Master Bao shoved him hard and said.

"Why should I?" the boy asked loudly.

"Just because I'm the eldest brother of the Thirteen Eagles!" Young Master Bao's eyes were fierce as he pulled out a dagger from his body.

"..." Seeing the fierce look in Young Master Bao's eyes, the boy took a step back in fright.

"Get out of here, all of you!" Young Master Bao roared again.

When a scholar encounters a soldier, reason is useless. After being startled and yelled at by Young Master Bao, all the students from other classes, except for those in my class, instantly left. At that moment, our classroom finally became quiet.

To deal with external threats, we must first pacify internal strife. Only when our internal situation is less chaotic can we properly deal with Wang Che. Now that Young Master Bao has driven those people away, we can finally have a proper showdown with Wang Che.
