Tsundere Campus Goddess and Rogue Master

Chapter 19

C19 – This’s Just A Beginning

Before Brother Gou could understand what Wang Xiao meant, he heard the sound of bones breaking. A strong pain came from his arm.

He screamed in pain. He looked down and saw that his right arm had been broken into several pieces. White bones were stuck out of his skin.

When the gangsters who were beaten on the ground saw this, they felt a chill on their backs and looked terrified.

“Don’t worry, this is only the beginning. You will still have to suffer from it!”

Wang Xiao’s expression gradually became somewhat cold as he said to Brother Gou coldly.

If he hit his woman, he would not be able to write off the debt even if he broke one of his hands.

He was just worrying about not having a partner to practice his Tendon-dissecting Hand!

Crack…

In the next few minutes, Wang Xiao’s hands moved around Brother Gou’s body. As long as it was his joints, he would remove them without hesitation.

Every time he removed a joint, Brother Gou would scream in pain. The overlapping ups and downs and the incessant screams frightened all the gangsters.

They felt weak all over and could not use any strength to get up from the ground. They looked at Wang Xiao with fear in their eyes.

Devil, this kid is a devil!

“How is it? Comfortable?”

Finally, after Wang Xiao removed all the joints on Brother Gou’s body, he asked coldly.

“Awoo, awoo, awoo…”

Brother Gou opened his mouth but only made a few noises. He could not speak at all. He looked at Wang Xiao with fear in his eyes.

“I almost forgot. I also dislocated your chin joints.”

Wang Xiao patted his head and remembered. He could not help but smile. Then he stretched out his hand and pressed Brother Gou’s chin joint.

“Big, big brother, I know I was wrong. Spare me!”

Brother Gou was no longer as angry as before. He cried at Wang Xiao with tears in his eyes.

“Spare you? How can that be? I haven’t had enough fun yet.”

When Wang Xiao heard this, the corners of his mouth curled up into a cold smile as he chuckled.

“Big Brother, it’s no big deal. They owe me ten thousand dollars. I don’t want it anymore, alright?”

Brother Gou begged bitterly with a face full of fear. The feeling of his joints being ripped off one by one was really too painful.

Wang Xiao’s face darkened when he heard that. He gave Brother Gou a slap and said coldly, “Am I talking about money to you now? You just hit my woman!”

After being slapped, a sharp pain came from his face, but Brother Gou was completely immune to it. Compared to the pain of having his muscles and bones broken, the pain of the slap was just a small matter.

He was not stupid. He immediately understood that Wang Xiao’s words were about Tong Waner. He hurriedly turned to look at Tong Waner, who was beside him, and begged with snot flowing out of her mouth, “Beauty, I know I was wrong. I should not have taken advantage of you just now. Forgive me. Your friend owes me that ten thousand yuan. We don’t want it either.”

Seeing Brother Gou’s pitiful look, Tong Waner, who was initially a little angry, felt her heart soften. When she heard Brother Gou’s last sentence, she glanced at Xiao Qing and her family. Gritting her teeth, she turned to Wang Xiao and said, “Big Brother Wang Xiao, why don’t you let him go?”

“Sigh…”

Hearing Tong Waner’s words, Wang Xiao felt a deep sigh welling up within him. Tong Waner possessed many admirable qualities, but her kindness made her vulnerable to exploitation by others.

Yet, it was precisely this kindness that had endeared Tong Waner to Wang Xiao in just a matter of days. He had fallen in love with this innocent girl.

“Alright, I’ll heed your advice,” Wang Xiao conceded with a helpless smile. He then turned to Brother Gou and stated in a stern tone, “This time, with my girlfriend advocating for your leniency, I’ll grant you a reprieve.”

As he spoke, he extended his hand and expertly reset all the joints in Brother Gou’s body.

Tong Waner’s cheeks reddened slightly upon hearing Wang Xiao’s words. It was rather embarrassing to be referred to as his girlfriend.

“Thank you, beautiful!”

After the joints were connected, Brother Gou also kept thanking Tong Waner.

Tong Waner turned her head to the side and didn’t even look at Brother Gou.

“Quickly take your people and get out of here.”

Wang Xiao also snorted at this time and coldly said to Brother Gou.

“Yes, yes, yes. We will leave now.”

Brother Gou quickly offered a fearful bow to Wang Xiao before departing with his subordinates.

“Young friend, we’re deeply grateful for your assistance. We’re not sure how we can repay your kindness.”

Following Brother Gou and his group’s departure, with the assistance of Xiao Qing and her mother, Xiao Qing’s father approached Wang Xiao to express his gratitude.

“Uncle, you needn’t say such things. Xiao Qing is a dear friend of Waner’s, and by extension, a friend of mine. When a friend faces adversity, how can we simply stand by?”

Wang Xiao gestured dismissively as he spoke frankly.

Upon hearing Wang Xiao’s words, Xiao Qing’s father regarded him with admiration. It was clear to him that Wang Xiao shared a special bond with Tong Waner.

Otherwise, his daughter’s association with such a young man wouldn’t be so worthwhile.

After assisting Xiao Qing’s father with his injuries and organizing the disarrayed furniture and miscellaneous items in the suite, Wang Xiao and Tong Waner left hand in hand.

……

On the street, Wang Xiao and Tong Waner held hands as they walked.

“Waner, does your face still hurt?”

Wang Xiao, full of concern, inquired about Tong Waner’s well-being. A faint palm print marred her otherwise snow-white complexion, imperceptible unless one scrutinized closely.

“The pain has subsided,” Tong Waner replied, her heart warmed by Wang Xiao’s concern. She shook her head solemnly and expressed her gratitude, “Big Brother Wang Xiao, I’m so glad you’re here today. Otherwise, I wouldn’t know what to do.”

“Protecting my wife is the most natural thing in the world.”

Wang Xiao playfully touched his nose and grinned at Tong Waner.

“Big Brother Wang Xiao, you’re amazing.”

Tong Waner’s eyes sparkled as she heard his words. She suddenly embraced Wang Xiao and buried her head in his arms.

“Waner, is something bothering you?”

Wang Xiao sensed that something was amiss with Tong Waner’s emotions and couldn’t help but ask.

Tong Waner remained silent, only shaking her head. It took considerable effort for Wang Xiao to coax an answer from her.

“I received the acceptance letter. Both Waner and I have been admitted to Forest City University.”

Tong Waner muttered with a hint of reluctance in her expression.

“Isn’t that a good thing?”

Wang Xiao was taken aback and inquired.

“But Big Brother Wang Xiao is in the Traditional Chinese Medicine program, and I’m in the Business and Commerce Department. Our campuses are different—mine in the Eastern City and yours in the Northern City.”

Tong Waner complained, her displeasure evident, as if she resented not being able to see Wang Xiao frequently.

When hearing Tong Waner’s words, Wang Xiao offered a wry smile. Thinking it was a more serious issue, he patted her head gently and reassured her, “It doesn’t matter. After all, we’re both in Forest City. When you miss me, just come and find me. It works the other way around too.”

“It seems… yes.”

Tong Waner, realizing the practicality of Wang Xiao’s words, nodded with a dreamy look, her rosy lips slightly pursed.

……

Within the Chen Family villa, the cacophony of shattering objects blended seamlessly with a chorus of curses.

“That audacious Wang Xiao! How dare he publicly disgrace me in front of so many witnesses? If I don’t exact my vengeance, I shan’t deserve to be called Chen Jie!”

Chen Jie’s countenance bore the weight of his fury as he continued to wreck items. Over the past few days, the incident at KTV had incessantly replayed in his mind—the exposure by Wang Xiao and the disdainful glances from his classmates. The more he dwelled on it, the harder it became to contain his rage.

The household servants in the vicinity, upon witnessing the incensed visage of their young master, wisely refrained from intervening or reprimanding him.

“Little Jie, what has stirred such ire within you?”

In that moment, a deep, resonant chuckle resonated from beyond the villa’s confines. A middle-aged man of robust build, the arch-nemesis of Tong Group, and the head of Chen Group, Chen Jie’s own father, Chen Peng, entered at a leisurely pace.

Chen Peng, who had only one offspring, Chen Jie, had grown even more indulgent towards his son following the death of Chen Jie’s mother. Upon learning of his son’s destructive rampage in their home, he had returned to investigate the cause.

“Dad, you’re back.”

As Chen Peng laid eyes on Chen Jie, an initial spark of joy flickered across his son’s face. However, upon hearing Chen Peng’s words, a profound sense of melancholy washed over him. He poured out his woes to his father, saying, “Dad, there’s this girl I’m really fond of, Tong Waner. Just two days ago, during our class reunion, I had intended to confess my feelings to her. Little did I know, she’s already in a relationship, and her boyfriend humiliated me. I can’t just let it slide!”

In that moment, Chen Jie’s fists clenched, and his countenance grew somber as he gritted his teeth.

“Tong Waner? Tong Shan’s daughter?”

When Chen Peng heard this revelation, he couldn’t help but be taken aback. Normally, he didn’t meddle in his son’s personal affairs. He was the type of father who would even leave it to the school to handle things if his son got a female classmate pregnant.

“Dad, whose daughter?”

Perplexed, Chen Jie also inquired. His father, Chen Peng, had always kept him at arm’s length from the family’s business matters, so he remained unaware of the tensions between the Chen Group and the Tong Group.

“Mr. Chen, Tong Waner attends the same school as the young master.”

At this juncture, the baldy stepped forward and spoke with a grave tone to Chen Peng.

Upon hearing this, Chen Peng’s eyes lit up, and a scheme began to take shape in his mind. He had been concerned about dealing with Tong Shan, but now, a glimmer of hope emerged.

“Son, are you genuinely smitten with Tong Waner?”

A sly smile crept onto Chen Peng’s face as he turned to question Chen Jie.
