Transmigrated as the fake young master, I'll beat up the scumbags and b*tches

Vol. 1 - Chapter 9 - A great show

As Hu Ming had envisioned, those people were tightly united like a flock of sheep. Even after being faced with HuMing's temptation, no one stepped forward.

However, HuMing still noticed occasional glances directed towards him. He smiled faintly, his deep expression concealing his thoughts.

No one knew what he was thinking, but it was clear that no one wanted to attract attention. The consequences of such a misstep were too dire, as they could end up like Han HuMing, a fate no one desired.

Time was slowly inching towards its end.

The bell for morning exercises rang. For some reason, many students appeared relieved, happy that nobody had exposed them. But little did they know that if a black sheep emerged within the group, the entire community could collapse instantly.

...

In the bustling schoolyard, many conversations centered around Han HuMing and his recent actions. Some even went so far as to label him a clown. It was clear to many that his current situation resulted from his decisions and actions.

As he descended the stairs, HuMing coincidentally encountered Han YunXi. Upon seeing HuMing, Han YunXi immediately remembered their conversation from the previous night.

She was just about to speak to Han HuMing, but he passed her calmly as though she were a stranger. Everything appeared as usual, but this encounter left Han YunXi feeling distinctly unsettled.

She started feeling guilty.

Even before Han ShuYi's return, Han Hu Ming was her brother, was he not?

Had her actions deeply hurt HuMing?

Her mind was filled with complexity.

Han YunXi strolled towards the schoolyard, lost in thought. Even when greeted by Han ShuYi, she responded absentmindedly.

After witnessing this scene, some suddenly connected Han YunXi and Han HuMing's relationship.

"Hey, if Han YunXi and Han ShuYi are siblings, isn't Han HuMing also her brother? But why didn't they greet each other at school?"

"Huh? With such a brother, I bet even you would want to avoid him. If it were me, I'd also look down on HuMing. It would be annoying to have such a brother dragging you down."

In the crowd, Han YunXi couldn't help but stop in her tracks. She did not react even when students passing bumped into her.

...

Each class stood in orderly rows. For students, morning exercises seemed like a waste of time. Who wouldn't want to spend a few extra seconds in bed?

Hu Ming shared the same sentiment with others. He yawned, his expression appearing lazy.

Suddenly, the boy in front of him turned around, glanced around suspiciously, then approached Hu Ming and asked.

"Han HuMing, does what you said just now still count?"

When Hu Ming heard that, he raised an eyebrow. It seemed like someone couldn't hold back anymore.

"Didn't I already say? I won't be waiting long."

"Just now, in the classroom, how do you think I could approach you? If I had done so, I would have been shunned by the whole class. I'm not stupid enough to do that."

"Then do you think that I'm stupid?"

Hu Ming crossed his arms mockingly as he looked at the boy before him.

"What if I tell you that I already knew who did it?"

Upon hearing Hu Ming's words, the boy's expression suddenly transformed. He couldn't comprehend why HuMing would say such a thing.

HuMing patted his shoulder and continued,

"Looks like someone is going to get in trouble."

Following HuMing's gaze, only to see a neatly dressed girl walking onto the large stage. Her face was cold, her expression calm.

Her presence immediately captured everyone's attention, but she appeared entirely unfazed by their scrutiny.

"This morning's exercises are canceled. There is a severe matter I need to address."

She quietly scanned the crowd and spotted Hu Ming's figure. He was smiling brightly as if he already knew what she would do. However, she was unaware of what Hu Ming had just done. If she had known, she would have felt helpless about Hu Ming's behavior.

After all, she was being used!

"Lately, I have noticed a negative atmosphere at school. A student is facing being cast out due to his identity."

"What I don't understand is that you are all here to study. Regarding identity, we are all the same as students."

"As fellow schoolmates, why would you deliberately cast off another student?"

A surveillance video played on the stage projector as soon as she finished speaking.

In the classroom, some students purposefully moved HuMing's belongings and placed them near the trash can. Others vandalized HuMing's desk, and one person even stuck gum in HuMing's book.

HuMing, who was watching the video with great interest, was also taken aback. He didn't anticipate his classmates' creativity.

He was lucky not to have brought drinks to school; otherwise, he wouldn't have known what he was drinking.

Han ShuYi gazed calmly at the video with no change in expression. But his fist clenched, and even his nails dug into his palm.

Han YunXi's mouth was slightly agape as she stared dumbfoundedly at the video, unable to believe what she saw. Because of Han ShuYi's welcome party yesterday, she did not observe HuMing.

But HuMing's expression the day before had already provided her answer, which she had overlooked. At that moment, she realized how much she had neglected her duty as a sister, even if HuMing wasn't her real brother.

LiYue shivered slightly, strongly relating to the experience of being treated this way, having gone through it herself.

"HuMing..."

She was worried about HuMing and tried to find him in the crowd.

Many students' eyes were fixated on HuMing. The arrogant and domineering Hu Ming had unexpectedly been treated this way. Some people thought it was justifiable, while others felt it had gone too far.

Regardless, the deed had been done, and HuMing's composed demeanor was astonishing. With his arms crossed, he calmly observed the video.

The video ended abruptly, and Ye QiuXue gazed icily at HuMing's class, calling out the names of those responsible for the incident.

"Yesterday, you were given a chance that you did not appreciate. School violence is prohibited in our school. Today, the principal will meet your parents. You will be expelled if you fail to gain Hu Ming's forgiveness!"

Her firm and cold words struck the hearts of a few individuals. Some collapsed in fear, while others were relieved they hadn't intervened.

For a moment, HuMing became the center of attention.

He quietly looked at the girl on stage and smiled at her.

Her eyelashes gently fluttered, resembling the delicate movement of butterfly wings. She then lowered her head, turned, and walked away.
