Chapter 345: The Extreme Gu Weilong
by xennovelThe student performances ended.
Then Principal Zhang Guohua took the stage to give a speech. First, he thanked Xu Shaochen and others for their contributions to the School, and finally, he looked forward to the future with everyone.
After a round of applause, the school celebration successfully concluded.
The entire event lasted from 9 AM to 2 PM.
Once the celebration was over, everyone left in an orderly manner except for those responsible for cleaning up.
Gu Weilong immediately sought out Zhou Sixian.
“Hello, Junior Zhou Sixian. Do you have time? How about we have some afternoon tea together?”
Gu Weilong displayed a smile he believed to be suave as he gently spoke to Zhou Sixian.
The more he looked at her, the more satisfied he felt. Perhaps it was his mind playing tricks, but he thought she was even prettier than Xie Wei.
“I’m sorry, I don’t have time.”
Zhou Sixian shook her head and refused. Xu Shaochen had instructed her not to go on dates with other men, nor to have any physical contact with them.
She feared Xu Shaochen would be unhappy, so she was very cold towards others.
Over the past few days, Xu Shaochen’s continuous gestures of care and sweet words, along with his occasional displays of affection, had already made her fall for him deeply. She had become accustomed to relying on Xu Shaochen, as well as habitually obeying his words and arrangements.
Whatever Xu Shaochen disliked, she would avoid doing.
Gu Weilong’s smile froze, but he quickly recovered: “No problem. What about tonight? How about we watch a movie together?”
“No, that won’t work, because tonight she’s watching a movie with me.”
From a distance, Xu Shaochen’s voice reached both of their ears.
“Junior Xu, first come, first served, understand? This has nothing to do with you this time. Don’t tell me… is she your woman too?”
Gu Weilong looked at Xu Shaochen with a mocking smile, his tone dripping with sarcasm.
Xu Shaochen chuckled and waved Zhou Sixian over: “Xiaoxian, come here and put an end to his hopes.”
In the next moment, under Gu Weilong’s bewildered gaze, Zhou Sixian, with a blush on her face, walked over to Xu Shaochen, who then wrapped his arm around her waist.
“Senior Gu, I’m sorry, but she is indeed my woman too.” Xu Shaochen sighed and said with apparent regret.
Gu Weilong’s face turned ashen, and his nose nearly twisted from anger. Since encountering Xu Shaochen today, his mood felt as if he had eaten something awful.
“Junior Zhou Sixian, I must tell you, this guy is two-timing. He’s dating another girl!” Gu Weilong smirked coldly as he spoke to Zhou Sixian.
Zhou Sixian nodded, “I know.”
“You… You know?” Gu Weilong felt his brain short-circuit. You know, yet still stick with him? He quickly concocted an explanation for himself—Zhou Sixian must be too weak-willed and used to enduring hardship without complaint.
With that thought, Gu Weilong looked at Xu Shaochen with a sneer: “Junior Zhou knows you’re two-timing, but does your girlfriend know?”
Based on his first impression of Xie Wei, she certainly didn’t seem like someone who was used to enduring hardship quietly.
He planned to inform Xie Wei of this incident and see how Xu Shaochen would handle the fallout.
“Of course I know. If anything, it just shows his charm, proving that my taste and choices are on point, don’t you think?”
As soon as he finished speaking, a crisp voice filled the air. Xie Wei, wearing high heels and a smile, walked over and wrapped her arm around Xu Shaochen’s.
Zhou Sixian still appeared nervous, like a thief caught red-handed. She softly muttered, “Weiwei姐 (Weiwei-jie).”
Over the past couple of days, she had gotten to know Xie Wei. Despite Xie Wei treating her well, she couldn’t shake the feeling of guilt, as if she had stolen something from Xie Wei.
There was nothing she could do; it was just her nature.
“You… You three…”
Faced with this scene, Gu Weilong was at a loss for words. What could he say? That they had no decency? But why couldn’t he help feeling envious?
“Senior Gu, next time you see a beautiful girl, don’t rush to chase after her. It’s better to find out if she knows me first. Otherwise, we could both end up with misunderstandings. Don’t you agree?”
Xu Shaochen smiled at Gu Weilong, his eyes filled with mockery, then left with Xie Wei and Zhou Sixian in tow.
Gu Weilong watched their departing figures, his face growing dark as if it could drip water. His fists clenched tightly, his nails digging into his palms, drawing blood.
This is a great humiliation! A great humiliation! His anger, jealousy, and resentment toward Xu Shaochen peaked, and the malicious intent in his eyes almost seemed to solidify.
After a while, Gu Weilong took out his phone and dialed a number: “Sanzi, let’s meet tonight. You said you wanted to help with something, right? I’d like to discuss it with you.”
After hanging up, a vicious glint flashed in Gu Weilong’s eyes. Xu Shaochen, you brought this on yourself.
Since he couldn’t outdo Xu Shaochen, he decided to eliminate him entirely.
Starting from scratch, Gu Weilong’s character was extreme due to his deep hatred for the rich and his overwhelming pride, which masked the inferiority complex stemming from his humble beginnings. This personality made him prone to extreme reactions when provoked.
Xu Shaochen was completely unaware of this, as it would be beyond his imagination to think that Gu Weilong was half-mad.
“Do you think it will be okay? That Gu guy doesn’t seem like a decent person. His gaze is too sinister; a normal person wouldn’t always have that kind of expression.”
Xie Wei voiced her concern to Xu Shaochen, clearly worried.
Xu Shaochen chuckled lightly and said dismissively, “Any rational person wouldn’t do anything outrageous unless they have a death wish or plan to go on the run.”
It’s a pity that Gu Weilong is rational, yet also an extreme madman.
On the way, Xu Shaochen attracted countless gazes.
Holding two stunning beauties in his arms, combined with his fame, it was impossible for this scene not to turn heads.
When Zhang Zhi and Zhao Yin saw this, they were also astonished, then looked at Xu Shaochen with admiration.
“Sorry to keep you all waiting.”
Xu Shaochen let go of Zhou Sixian and Xie Wei, smiling apologetically at the seven people standing across from him.
“Not at all, Mr. Xu, you were not late. We just got here ourselves.”
“Yes, Mr. Xu, you’re being too modest.”
“Now that Xu Shaochen has arrived, let’s depart. I’ve already reserved the place.”
They had arranged a meal under the guise of a schoolmate gathering, but the real intention was to establish good relations with Xu Shaochen, at least to leave an impression.
They had also politely invited Gu Weilong, but he declined.
“Please, after you.”
“Mr. Xu, please go first.”
After a round of courtesy, Xu Shaochen led the way with Xie Wei and Zhou Sixian, and the group left the School.
They had all brought their drivers or bodyguards. Zhang Zhi and Zhao Yin each said something to their bodyguards, and then the bodyguards turned and left.
