Chapter 158 Public Opinion Pressure

Su Xiaoyan was aware of Tang Wei's existence and already felt disgusted by Li Mingfeng's parasitic behavior. Hearing this, she was filled with indignation.

"What?! He actually hit someone?" Su Xiaoyan's voice was filled with shock and anger. "That's outrageous! This Li Mingfeng, he always seemed unreliable, I never expected him to be such a scoundrel!"

"Dad, what do you want to do?"

Ning Xiuyang said with a stern face, "As the class monitor, and also a witness when he borrowed the money, tomorrow organize the class committee, or in the class group, to start a discussion on the matter of 'classmates borrowing money and not repaying it and using violence'."

Su Xiaoyan was incredibly clever and immediately understood Ning Xiuyang's intention.

"Are you trying to... put pressure on him through public opinion?"

"I suppose so. I just feel that this kind of behavior shouldn't be tolerated. As classmates, we need to make him realize his mistake. Of course, it won't be too difficult for you; you just need to objectively state the facts and guide everyone to discuss this trend."

This is an open conspiracy.

He wanted to make it impossible for Li Mingfeng to stay at school, to make him a rat that everyone wanted to beat.

"no problem!"

Not only was this the first task Ning Xiuyang had given her, but Su Xiaoyan also couldn't stand Li Mingfeng's behavior. She immediately agreed, filled with righteous indignation, "This kind of person deserves to die! I'll take care of it tomorrow!"

After arranging everything, Ning Xiuyang felt the anger in his heart subside a little.

After joking and flirting with Su Xiaoyan for a while, Ning Xiuyang finally hung up the phone.

He put away his phone and turned around, only to find Shen Youyou standing not far behind him, looking at him with an extremely complicated expression.

She had clearly heard everything he said on the phone.

Especially those few sweet, coquettish "Daddy" calls.

……

Only one floor lamp was on in the living room on the second floor, and the dim yellow light cast long shadows of the two people.

Shen Youyou just stood there, not saying a word, just looking at him.

In her eyes, there was shock, inquiry, and a trace of... indescribable fear.

The Ning Xiuyang who had just been strategizing on the phone, effortlessly laying a trap for Li Mingfeng and aiming to destroy him completely, was someone she had never seen before.

Ruthless, decisive, and even ruthless.

This was completely different from the Ning Xiuyang she remembered—sometimes glib, sometimes gentle and considerate, and sometimes domineering and savage.

Which one is the real him?

Ning Xiuyang felt a little uncomfortable under her gaze, so he walked over and waved his hand in front of her eyes.

"What are you looking at? Are you stupid?"

Shen Youyou came to her senses, her lips moved as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she swallowed it back.

"Why...why did you go to such lengths?" she asked in a low voice. "Wouldn't it have been simpler to just call the police and have him arrested? Why...why did you have to get him expelled from school?"

In her opinion, Ning Xiuyang's methods were far too ruthless.

This is not only about punishing Li Mingfeng, but also about completely ruining his life.

"Youyou." Ning Xiuyang looked at her, his expression becoming serious.

She thought the girl was jealous because she overheard her playing the piano with Su Xiaoyan.

Unexpectedly, it was to stand up for Li Mingfeng.

Ning Xiuyang frowned and patiently explained, "Some people, if you give them a chance, they will think you are weak and easy to bully. If you leave them an inch of room, they will take advantage of you and bite you back."

"You can't treat jackals like you treat sheep. If you don't exterminate them, they'll always buzz around you like flies, making your life miserable."

His voice wasn't loud, but it carried an irrefutable power.

Shen Youyou fell silent.

She couldn't refute it because she remembered Tang Wei's injuries and Li Mingfeng's shameless face.

Perhaps Ning Xiuyang is right.

"You...to Tang Wei, is it...?" She finally couldn't help but ask the question that had been nagging at her.

Ning Xiuyang's concern for Tang Wei has gone beyond that of ordinary friends, or even "sworn brothers".

That kind of anger and protectiveness that comes from the heart cannot be faked.

Ning Xiuyang smiled, took a step forward, closed the distance between them, and looked down at her.

"What's wrong? Are you jealous?"

His warm breath brushed against her face, making her heart skip a beat and her cheeks flush instantly.

"Who...who's jealous! I'm just...just curious!" she retorted stubbornly, but her eyes darted away.

"Weiwei is my adopted sister. As her older brother, shouldn't I stand up for her when she's being bullied?" Ning Xiuyang answered frankly, "If it were you, or any of Mengmeng or Lulu who were being bullied, I would do the same."

His answer was flawless, leaving Shen Youyou with no room for criticism.

But the inexplicable feeling of suffocation in her heart did not lessen at all.

Just as the atmosphere was becoming somewhat awkward, Ning Xiuyang's phone vibrated again.

He took it out and saw that it was the photo that You Jinyu had sent him before, along with the messages he had missed.

The impact of the photos made even Ning Xiuyang, who had just taken in a high-ranking general manager who had been reduced to a private slave that very night, feel his mouth go dry.

This enchantress is seducing people all the time.

He glanced at Shen Youyou, who was still sulking beside him, walked to the other end of the sofa, sat down, and began to reply to You Jinyu.

[Ning Xiuyang]: "I just finished dealing with some things and saw this. Sister, are you trying to keep me awake tonight with this photo?"

You Jinyu replied almost instantly.

[You Jinyu]: "Hmph, you're only coming back now? I thought you'd died somewhere in some brothel. How did things go? Is your little lover alright?"

"A little lover? I don't have a little lover."

Ning Xiuyang typed: "It's my sister, she was bullied."

"Oh? Sister? How come I didn't know you had a sister? Is she a biological sister or an adopted sister? [rolls eyes]" You Jinyu's words were full of gossip and teasing.

Ning Xiuyang was too lazy to explain to her, so he made a video call directly.

The call connected, and You Jinyu's stunningly beautiful face appeared on the screen.

She seemed to have just taken a shower; her hair was still wet and draped over her shoulders. Her face was bare of makeup, which only made her appear more innocent and charming.

"What, you dare to video chat with your sister? Aren't you afraid your little lover will find out?" She winked at the camera.

Ning Xiuyang pointed the camera at the ceiling and chuckled in a low voice, "I took her to the hospital. But you, sister, why aren't you asleep so late? Were you waiting for me?"

"Pah, who's waiting for you?" You Jinyu spat lightly, her cheeks slightly flushed. "I'm working like a slave for you, researching your property management company!"

She turned the camera and pointed it at a large pile of documents on the desk.

"See? My sister's working so hard for you, she's practically turned into a haggard old woman. Tell me, how are you going to make it up to me?"

"Compensation, of course we should compensate."

Ning Xiuyang's voice carried a hint of hoarse laughter as he chuckled, "Once I'm done with this busy period, I'll make sure you get a good rest and make up for all the sleep you've missed these past few days."

"I'll send you the most nourishing face mask. Use it every day, and I guarantee your skin will be hydrated and glowing afterward."
