Chapter 1533 He Can Leave

“Quick, stop him! Don’t let him get to the rooftop . ” Xu Que exclaimed loudly, his fingers pointing at Xia Luoqing, his face grave .

SWISH!

A few of Boss Lin’s black-clad men immediately surrounded Xia Luoqing and grabbed his arms as he was writhing about wildly .

Xia Luoqing was completely dumbfounded .

“What are you talking about?”

“What the h*ll are you doing?”

“Are you here to stop me? Why are you holding onto my legs and dancing around?”

“Young Master Xia, stop struggling! We wish to save you, but you have to try to restrain your grief too . It’s okay if your clan has fallen . The most important thing in life is to be happy . Don’t do any foolish things . ” Xu Que kept on talking to Xia Luoqing earnestly as if he was counseling him to keep him from jumping off the roof .

While all this was happening, his cell phone was still being pointed directly at Xia Luoqing . To anyone who didn’t know any better, Xia Luoqing, who was flailing about in the arms of a few men in black, looked like he was struggling .

But the problem was, considering the various hints Xu Que had dropped previously, as well as Boss Lin’s words about the rooftop being prepared for Xia Luoqing, everyone realized that something was up, at least many viewers did .

It seemed that this pr*ck really didn’t intend to jump to his death .

“Let go of me, I said let go of me, I’m not jumping, for f*ck’s sake . ” Xia Luoqing hollered angrily . But before he could finish his words, his mouth had already been covered by one of the black-clad men .

“What did you say, don’t jump, what? If you don’t jump you couldn’t be considered a true member of the Xia family? How could you spout such ridiculous words! You guys, hold him back properly . You mustn’t let him break free, or he’ll go to the rooftop to jump to his death for sure . ” Xu Que commanded the black-clad men solemnly .

Having understood Xu Que’s intentions, the men in black nodded their heads and pretended to loosen their grip on Xia Luoqing accidentally, all at the same time .

The next moment, Xia Luoqing successfully broke free all of a sudden, and as he fell to the ground, the black-clad men instantly cried out, “Young Master Xia, don’t be like this!”

Following that, they rushed forward all at the same time, pretending to grab hold of Xia Luoqing, when, in reality, they were pushing Xia Luoqing toward the stairs instead .

“No . Quick, hold him back!” Acting as if he were torn with grief and exasperation, Xu Que yelled and rushed forward . His phone camera was shaking correspondingly and was no longer pointed directly at Xia Luoqing .

The masses tuning in to the live-stream were at once affected by the tense atmosphere and all in a state of shock .

This fella’s acting is fake as f*ck!

But the thing is, he’s not going to make Xia Luoqing jump to his death for real, is he?

Is he really putting so much on the line?

… . .

Downstairs and outside, while all of this was happening, Xu Que’s dormitory roommates, who had witnessed this whole spectacle on the live-stream, were horrified and almost out of their minds from confusion .

“Was…was this still the Xu Que that they knew?”

It was pretty normal for him to be more scheming than he let on, but since when had he progressed to become this callous?

It was terrifying enough that he had caused the fall of the Xia family, but now it seemed as if he had no intention of letting Xia Luoqing off, and was planning to drive Xia Luoqing to jump to his death .

This was clearly a monster, live and in action .

In the building, Lin Yuxi and Xuanyuan Wanrong were watching the live-stream on Lin Yuxi’s phone too .

“He…is he really going to kill Xia Luoqing?” Lin Yuxi was terrified . To her, a young college student, the fall of the Xia family didn’t seem to be all that shocking .

After all, the Xia family was so influential that even if it fell, it would only suffer from this fall in nominal terms, which made things much less consequential and thus less unsettling .

Just like during the financial crisis brought about by the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers back in the day, despite its sudden occurrence, the common folk only understood this matter in conceptual terms and didn’t experience firsthand the impacts of the event .

But now, Xu Que’s performance in such a public setting was clearly an attempt to make Xia Luoqing jump to his death .

While he appeared to be stopping Xia Luoqing on the surface, those who had watched the entire live-stream knew very clearly his true intentions . He had dropped too many intentional hints in the beginning, as if he was afraid it wouldn’t be known that he had done all of this deliberately .

“And so what if he does? Why not?” Xuanyuan Wanrong said nonchalantly .

She could tell that Xia Luoqing was not a good guy, but Xu Que wasn’t one either, so it didn’t matter to her which one of them died in this battle of two evils .

“Wait, no, Xu Que couldn’t die . After all, this concerned her life too . ”

In that case, whether or not Xia Luoqing died was really none of her concern .



“B…but it’s illegal to kill someone . What if Xu Que gets sent to jail…” Lin Yuxi had already thought about all the possible consequences .

Given the way Xu Que had gone about doing this, it was very likely that he could be charged with homicide or for abetting homicide .

“It’s all right . ” Xuanyuan Wanrong replied indifferently . It didn’t matter even if Xu Que had to be sent to jail, as long as he didn’t die and implicate her, nothing mattered .

“It’s all right? How is this all right? What if…” Lin Yuxi began .

THUD!


Before she could finish her sentence, a loud, dull noise sounded outside the building . It was as if a hefty object had fallen from the sky and in the process created a deep and resounding crash .

That noise was soon followed by cries and shrieks that came from outside the building . It was abnormally intense .

In no time, Lin Yuxi froze in stunned silence . The color had drained from her face, and she didn’t dare to move an inch . She didn’t even have the courage to find out what had happened outside .

Because it seemed as if she could already guess what had happened, even without looking .

At this moment, her mind went blank .

However, following that initial blankness, several images flashed through her mind ceaselessly .

Throughout her past year at college, Xu Que had constantly been on her mind . That Xu Que, who had a dazzling and cherubic smile, that Xu Que who had a knack for making her laugh with his weird antics all the time, that Xu Que who would pay no heed to danger by climbing a tree just to save a stray cat…

BANG!

All of a sudden, those images that reminded her of a time that had been wonderful were abruptly shattered by complete darkness .

Instead, a face exuding unruliness and an evil charm, equipped with a ruffian-like smile, flooded her mind: Xu Que!

He was still Xu Que, but it was as if he had changed from his previously silly and kind-hearted self to becoming a demon through and through .

“What’s happening? Why…does this all feel a little familiar? I…” Lin Yuxi fell into a trance all of a sudden . Vaguely, she seemed to feel something familiar calling out to her, but she couldn’t tell where it was coming from .

“Hmm?” Upon discovering this change in Lin Yuxi, Xuanyuan Wanrong was a little startled .



She seemed to sense the motion of a strange spiritual Qi in the space between heaven and earth . The empty space beside Lin Yuxi seemed to warp a little, before returning to normal .

“What’s up with this woman?” Xuanyuan Wanrong wondered, expressing her shock to herself silently .

Why would such a situation occur in Xu Que’s world of memory?

… . .

DING! “Congratulations to the host on acting tough successfully . You have been awarded 300 Acting Tough Points!”

The System beeps in Xu Que’s mind were still ongoing .

He looked attentively at the total number of Acting Tough Points he had accumulated on the System interface . He had successfully attained 3,000 points, which was enough for him to break out of this memory world and return to the Heaven Continent .

“Does the host confirm his decision to spend 3,000 Acting Tough Points on breaking this field by force?” asked the System .

“Confirm!” Xu Que nodded immediately, without the slightest bit of hesitation .

This was the only way for him to leave because he and Xuanyuan Wanrong didn’t have any means to develop feelings for each other in this tragic romance . Besides, neither of them had any desire to get together, so their relationship wouldn’t have succeeded even if they had gone by the normal route .

DING! “The System has begun breaking apart the memory world . The entire process is expected to be complete within approximately three hours . Please be prepared . ”

Upon hearing this, Xu Que’s eyes got wide . “What the f*ck, this will take three hours? D*mn it, thank goodness I was smart enough not to push Xia Luoqing for real, or I wouldn’t have been able to escape legal sanctions during these three hours!”

Xu Que heaved a sigh of relief, and his eyes went toward Xia Luoqing, who was still unconscious and lying at his feet .

Indeed, he hadn’t actually made Xia Luoqing jump to his death . He had merely tossed a high-quality silicon doll off the building and made it break into smithereens in front of Xia Luoqing . And that was enough to make Xia Luoqing wet himself .

Not long after, when Xu Que had dragged him to his feet, Xia Luoqing had passed out on the spot .

However, this was also partly due to the fact that Xu Que had accumulated enough Acting Tough Points . If he hadn’t, he might have thrown Xia Luoqing off the building for real, just to complete his final act .

“Ah, forget it! You’re spared!”

Xu Que looked at Xia Luoqing, who was still lying on the floor, and laughed before turning to head toward the stairs, leaving the rooftop .



His state of mind had long changed . He was no longer bothered by the past, nor ex-enemies he had already taken revenge on . In fact, he had already let go of everything that had happened in the past a very long time ago .

The present Xu Que was a lot more mature and could take things much more easily .

Most important, he no longer held grudges as he had in the past .

That’s because now he would seek revenge immediately on the spot in the event of anyone p*ssing him off .

BUZZ!

As soon as he’d descended the stairs, the phone in Xu Que’s pocket began to vibrate .

A call had come from the Zhao family!

“Hello . ” Xu Que picked up the phone right away .

The voice on the other end of the line was not the voice of Elder Zhao, but, rather, some young person . It was a young voice, laced with the slightest bit of arrogance .

“Hello? Are you Xu Que? I’m Zhao Zhi’s eldest son . Before you meet my grandfather and the rest at 8 o’clock tonight, could you come to meet me at the Luminous Bar . I have a huge deal to discuss with you . ”

Upon saying this, the person on the other end of the line continued coldly, “Oh, right . You can bring a few of your friends over to join us too . I, Young Master Zhao, am footing the entire bill tonight . ”
