Chapter 1219: Chen Xi Was Beaten

Su Shen was practically dragged out of the house by his two sons. With every step, he turned back twice, utterly unwilling to part from his wife. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

But Su Li, blissfully oblivious, had no idea he was crashing his parents’ alone time. At the moment, his entire world revolved around one thing—riding on that motorbike. The sheer excitement had his grin stretched from ear to ear, and as soon as they left the gate, he sprinted next door to call Gao Ming out to join the fun.

The motorbike was Su Shen’s newest indulgence. In times like these, owning a motorbike was still the most practical choice, so he’d just bought another—this one a sleek red-and-white number that looked straight out of a vintage action film. He hadn’t ridden one in years, but riding a bike was like riding… well, a bike. No big deal for him.

With the three kids securely strapped in, he roared off into the streets, off on a joyride through the breeze.

Back inside, Gu Zi heard the engine fade into the distance and knew the coast was clear—they were finally far enough away. She turned to coax little Su Le into a nap. But just as she stood up, the phone rang.

She walked over and answered. On the other end came Sun Yi’s voice, tight with worry.

“Gu Zi, something’s happened to our Chen Xi,” she said, breathless. “He was attacked outside the school and is still in the hospital, unconscious. Thank God it didn’t hit any vital organs.”

Gu Zi froze. Sun Yi continued in a rush, “The people who hit him haven’t been found yet. Chen Yu’s furious—he’s already sent men out to search. The attackers claimed it was over a loan. Apparently, Chen Xi’s girlfriend borrowed money from a loan shark and used him as the guarantor. The payment deadline passed, and when she didn’t pay up, they came after him. Gu Zi, do you know anything about this? Is Chen Xi dating anyone? Who is she? What kind of girl takes out a loan from thugs?”

Gu Zi listened intently, her mind working quickly. “As far as I know, Chen Xi isn’t in a relationship. But I do recall a girl—Tang Xue. She’s in our class. I heard she and Chen Xi went to the same high school, and there were always rumors about the two of them. I remember she once asked him for money, and he refused. My guess? He’s just collateral damage in all this. Sun Yi, have you reported it to the police? You should. Don’t waste time.”

To Gu Zi, it all seemed painfully unfair. She had once thought Tang Xue might be a decent match for Chen Xi—open, honest, seemingly thoughtful. Even when his feelings faded, he had remained respectful, never humiliating her. And yet, she’d turned out to be nothing short of a disaster. This wasn’t a romance—it was a full-blown tragedy, more rotten fruit than love story.

Sun Yi let out a relieved sigh. “That’s what I needed to hear. I was worried he’d been bewitched into helping her borrow money. I know what to do now.”

The moment she hung up, Sun Yi turned to her assistant and said sharply, “Go tell my husband: Chen Xi was dragged into this. No need to worry anymore—just report it to the police, straightaway.”

Almost on cue, Chen Xi began to stir in his hospital bed. As his eyes fluttered open, Sun Yi rushed to his side.

“Finally!” she said, her face softening as she adjusted his pillow. “How are you feeling?”

Chen Xi winced as he pushed himself up, his body aching all over. His left arm was limp—clearly fractured—and he could only support himself with the other.

“I feel like I got hit by a truck,” he muttered. “But, don’t worry, I didn’t go down without a fight. I landed a solid kick on that bastard’s crotch. Dropped him on the spot.”

Sun Yi raised an eyebrow, unimpressed. “Oh really? If you were that capable, why are you lying here like a ragdoll? Now spill. What exactly happened?”

Chen Xi scratched the back of his head sheepishly. “I did win—kind of. It’s just… there were three of them. One against three? No way I wasn’t gonna take a beating. And about all this—it started with a classmate. She got herself into trouble with some underground loan sharks, borrowed a huge sum, and made me the guarantor. Said I was her boyfriend and owed them thirty thousand yuan—principal plus interest.”

“She’s not my girlfriend,” he stressed. “I didn’t even know she used my name. So of course I refused to pay. Then they stole my motorbike and knocked me out cold. Please tell my brother to call the cops. That bike is expensive. I need it back.”

But it wasn’t just expensive—it was customized, a labor of love. Every inch of it had been upgraded to perfection, and there was no way Chen Xi was letting a bunch of thugs ride off into the sunset with his prized possession.

Sun Yi didn’t even try to hide her irritation. She reached out and gave him a none-too-gentle knock on the head.

“Look at you—beaten half to death, and you’re still worried about your motorbike? We’re definitely reporting this. And that Tang Xue is insane. Who borrows from loan sharks and drags a Chen family member down with her? Absolute lunatic.”

When she mentioned Tang Xue’s name, something shifted in Chen Xi’s face. It contorted into disgust.

He hated her now. Really hated her.

How had she become like this? Taking out shady loans, dragging innocent people into her mess. She had made it into a top university—how could she be so stupid?

He could still remember the moment they’d seized his bike. He’d nearly burst a vein. If he could have gotten his hands on Tang Xue right then, he would’ve torn her apart, piece by piece.

Meanwhile, over at the Chen family estate, Chen Yu—having received the full story from his wife—wasted no time. He contacted the authorities immediately.

What happened next was swift and surgical: with police cooperation, Chen Yu led a raid that took down the entire illegal loan shark ring behind the assault.

To the police, he made one final request. “This all started because of a girl named Tang Xue,” he said coolly. “She’s been selling counterfeit products for profit. I hope the law can hold her accountable.”
