At that time, on the eighth floor of the hotel.
"How about that? With one call from me, that teacher didn't dare to say a word!"
Yi Xiaoling snuggled into Zhang Qi's embrace. "Zhang Qi, you're amazing! And... thank you for the birthday party you planned for me, I really liked it!"
Zhang Qi, with a cigarette dangling from his lips, patted her cheek. "Good girl, it's thanks to you for coming up with the idea of the list, otherwise I wouldn't have known how to deal with that bitch!"
Yi Xiaoling said solicitously, "Be careful, don't let your uncle find out again..."
"So what if he finds out!"
As if his male pride had been pricked, Zhang Qi said with a dark expression, "He has the nerve to help an outsider embarrass his own nephew. Aren't they afraid of losing face if this gets out!"
"Heh, he never shows me a good face, and now he's always lecturing me. Bah!"
He pinched Yi Xiaoling's chin, his voice cold and low. "What do you think he, Lou Yu Ming, is? His hands are stained with the lives of so many people, he even goes after his own son. It's a damn shame our Zhang family has to deal with such a cold-blooded monster!"
"Son?" Yi Xiaoling was shocked. "Your uncle has a son?"
The brothers beside them immediately interjected, "Alright, you even dare to talk about Lou Yu Ming behind his back. Aren't you afraid he'll kill you!"
But Zhang Qi was in high spirits, having downed several bottles of whiskey and lost all sense of direction. He sneered and smashed his glass on the floor. "What are we afraid of! He's not afraid of others talking about what he's done!"
"He used to have a girlfriend. He got tired of her and wanted to dump her. Unexpectedly, the woman refused to break up, saying she was pregnant. What kind of person is Lou Yu Ming? A devil who kills without batting an eye! He forced the woman to take medication, which led to heavy bleeding and almost cost her her life on the operating table! The most important thing was..."
Yi Xiaoling shivered. "...What?"
"He ate the fetus's placenta!"
"Ah!" Yi Xiaoling exclaimed in shock. "Is that true?"
Zhang Qi sneered, "Why do you think he's still so energetic at his age? He must have eaten something very nourishing. Bah, disgusting!"
Yi Xiaoling suddenly felt a chill down her spine. She never expected Lou Yu Ming to be so terrifying. No wonder Zhang Qi was so afraid of him...
"Bang!"
The door was suddenly kicked open. Everyone turned to look and saw a slender figure standing at the entrance.
Yi Xiaoling curled her lips. She actually came.
Zhang Qi narrowed his dark eyes and whistled.
"Yo, isn't this my girlfriend?"
Song Xi walked straight past him, her voice icy. "Who's your girlfriend!"
Zhang Qi burst into laughter. After laughing, his expression turned serious. "If I say you are, then you are! What are you here for, to apologize? Fine, don't say I didn't give you a chance. As long as you kneel down and bark like a dog three times, I'll let bygones be bygones. Forget about the graduation play, I'll give you anything!"
Ice filled Song Xi's eyes. She said decisively, "Impossible!"
Zhang Qi immediately got angry and kicked over the coffee table in front of him. "Bitch, you don't know what's good for you, who are you putting on a show for! I see you've been living too comfortably and forgotten my methods. Do you want me to try real sulfuric acid? Otherwise, you won't learn your lesson!"
A flicker of fear crossed Song Xi's face.
It was a long time ago, when Zhang Qi was still pursuing her. He had gone to great lengths and used all sorts of tricks to force her to submit. Song Xi had endured them all. Until one day, a bottle of liquid rained down and splashed on her face.
Zhang Qi's mocking voice echoed in the air, saying it was sulfuric acid.
At that moment, Song Xi was so terrified that she fainted.
When she woke up, she realized it was just a bottle of fake sulfuric acid.
And Zhang Qi looked down at her like a devil and said, "Next time, it might not be fake."
From that moment on, Song Xi finally surrendered.
She knew that if she continued like this, she would either be tormented to death or scared to death. She still had her brother, and she had to live!
So she could only endure, and endure, and endure until now. As she recalled these memories, an irrepressible rage surged in her chest, rushing wildly through her body.
Song Xi clenched her back molars, her gaze sharpening. She grabbed a bottle and smashed it.
"Bang!"
With a loud crash, the bottle narrowly missed Zhang Qi's face. The entire room fell into a deathly silence.
Yi Xiaoling's eyes widened in shock. Was she crazy!
"You damn bitch, you dare to hit me!" Zhang Qi couldn't believe it and lunged forward.
"Slap!"
Her slender body was fiercely slapped to the ground, like a shattered rose.
Song Xi licked her tongue, tasting the metallic tang of rust.
"Bitch, I'll beat you to death!"
Zhang Qi grabbed her hair and delivered several more slaps. Song Xi's vision swam, and her consciousness began to scatter.
But he still felt it wasn't enough. He grabbed her scalp and pulled upward, then pinched her chin with such force that it felt like he was going to crush her bones.
"How dare you lay a hand on me! What do you think you are! A whore like you wouldn't even be wanted in a brothel, and you really think you're something, huh!"
Song Xi slowly raised her head. Her cheeks were swollen and numb, as if she could no longer feel anything. Yet, she still managed to open her mouth with difficulty.
Seeing her fragile appearance, Zhang Qi let down his guard, smugly leaning his ear closer. "Know you were wrong?"
Unexpectedly, a sharp pain came from his earlobe the next second.
"Fuck!"
He violently pushed her away. Song Xi fell to the ground, the blood on her lips looking as alluring as it was. She curved her lips and spat coldly on the ground, "Dirty!"
Zhang Qi covered his ear, furious.
Song Xi gave a cold smile, looking at his expression as if he were scum. "Trash."
Zhang Qi could no longer tolerate it and kicked her in the stomach.
"Ah!"
Song Xi let out a pained scream, clutching her abdomen, cold sweat beading on her forehead.
Zhang Qi saw the glimpse of her chest, and a cruel arc formed on his lips. "Fine, I'm bored anyway. Before I kick you, why don't I have some fun first..."
Yi Xiaoling raised her chin arrogantly, a hint of malice flashing in her eyes.
...
At that time, in the hotel, Ge Baitao had just finished a blind date. To be precise, she had fled in disarray.
She couldn't understand why a blind date would be arranged in a hotel. Her father must have been desperate for her to get married. It was so awkward! So she made up an excuse and left, but ended up getting lost.
This was ridiculous!
Suddenly, there was a clatter of things being smashed from ahead, as if someone was fighting. Ge Baitao's inner gossip fire was burning fiercely.
Holy shit, could this be a scene of catching a cheating spouse?
She tiptoed over and was greatly surprised when she clearly saw the man's features.
Zhang Qi!
This beast was bullying a girl again!
Does anyone care!
Ge Baitao gritted her teeth in anger, took out her phone, and took a series of rapid-fire pictures. Finally, she found Lou Yu Ming's WeChat and sent them all.

"Uncle Lou, your nephew is acting up again."
"That girl is so pitiful, she's even bleeding..."
"...She looks a bit familiar..."
"Holy shit, it's Song Xi!"
