Drama Queen Reborn as a Top Student!-Chapter 960 - 464: My Honor
Li Wanqing’s pupils shrank abruptly, and she immediately changed to a smiling face: "Mr. Mei Fei, why are you here?"
Rong Xianning looked at the young man standing backlit at the doorway. He stood against the light, with a halo forming a circle behind him, making him appear as if a deity had descended.
But he couldn’t see the young man’s face clearly.
"What are you doing?"
The young man’s voice was deliberately lowered, creating a stark contrast with his youthful face, producing an intense sense of oppression.
His voice always carried a touch of mirth, but if you truly thought he was a cheerful and good-tempered person, you would be gravely mistaken.
The smile was more about a naturally born charm, a confidence that disregards everyone and everything, and even a proud disdain for all.
He was like a level above her, ruling Australia, where everyone seemed to be mere toys in his eyes, as he coldly overlooked everyone’s joys and sorrows.
Li Wanqing had quickly concluded after just meeting Amos that he was a person with deeper thoughts than the sea, not someone she could control, and her intuition told her to stay as far away from danger as possible.
But now, danger had come knocking at her door.
Nevertheless, Li Wanqing felt assured inside. People like Amos were colder than her, and he wouldn’t meddle in anything without profit.
"I’m just chatting with friends. What, is Young Master Amos interested in playing with us?"
Li Wanqing intentionally spoke in a very flirtatious tone because someone like Amos detested women who approached him proactively.
Amos would definitely show disgust and then turn and leave.
But suddenly Lin Shu spoke loudly, "Young Master Mei Fei, please save us."
Li Wanqing tried to cover her mouth but it was too late; she couldn’t help but glare at Lin Shu fiercely.
A long, oppressive silence followed.
Li Wanqing smiled, "Mr. Amos, my father still wants to consult with you about the casino planning in the new district. Have you had a deep discussion with my father? The planning of the new district casino concerns Australia’s future, and your opinion is most important."
In a pinch, she found an excuse to send Amos away.
The new district casino planning was something Ouri would also be part of, and the land demarcation and construction site needed her father’s help. If Amos were smart, he would understand not to trouble her. No matter what he heard or saw, turning away would be more in line with a capitalist’s style.
Lin Shu gritted her teeth, broke free from Xiao Hu, and dashed toward the door, lunging to Amos’ feet, clinging to his legs.
Nobody expected her, even after being so devastated, to have such speed and reflexes.
Lin Shu held Amos’s legs tight, crying tearfully, "Young Master Mei Fei, I beg you to save us. Li Wanqing... Li Wanqing wants to kill us. It doesn’t matter if I die, but I can’t let Rong Xianning suffer because of me. He is innocent; just for helping me, he’s going to be silenced by Li Wanqing, and it’s too unfair to him."
Li Wanqing frantically shouted, "Lin Shu, what nonsense are you spewing? I’ve treated you well, and this is how you slander me in front of Young Master Mei Fei? I know my father wishes to match me with Young Master Mei Fei, which makes you uncomfortable, but you can’t use such vile means to smear me."
Lin Shu was stunned by Li Wanqing’s ability to spout lies with open eyes.
"No, I didn’t slander you. Rong Xianning saw how you and the others bullied me. Your phones even have videos. If you dare, show Young Master Mei Fei the phones."
The girls holding the phones instinctively hid them behind their backs.
Li Wanqing sneered, "Lin Shu, in order to climb up to Young Master Mei Fei, you really are using all kinds of schemes and tricks. Young Master Mei Fei has seen all kinds of women; how could he fall for your ploy? People, drag this woman away."
Lin Shu shook her head desperately, clinging to Amos’s legs, treating the person before her as her last hope.
"Young Master Mei Fei, everything I’m saying is true. Please don’t believe her one-sided words. Rong Xianning can testify for me."
Rong Xianning felt a cold gaze fall on him.
Rong Xianning stepped forward, "I testify that what she’s saying is true. There was a severe intentional injury incident just now. If I hadn’t arrived in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable. Young Master Mei Fei, we have no power or influence, but we have dignity."
The young man’s back was straightened, though the situation was against him, his momentum was strong.
Li Wanqing glared at Rong Xianning, "You, a third-rate star from the entertainment industry, have no right to speak here."
"What was the name of the song you just sang?"
Amos suddenly asked, his irrelevant question leaving everyone bewildered.
This question was clearly directed at Rong Xianning.
Rong Xianning was taken aback, responding, "I haven’t named it yet."
"In the boundless vastness, I recall the fields of July, golden waves of wheat rising into unforgettable childhood songs...."
The young man’s deep voice chanted the lyrics, bringing the scene vividly to life before everyone’s eyes.
"No matter how many failures, temptations, or hypocrisy exist in this world, please retain your innocence, your goodness, your dreams... ."
"Unforgettable childhood, unforgettable song."
The warmth of childhood seemed to have imbued the young man’s voice, which no longer held that piercing coldness, carrying a subtle softness and gentleness.
"I really like this song."
Li Wanqing’s brain buzzed as if it exploded.
Amos’s attitude was very dangerous.
Clearly, he showed a distinct appreciation for Rong Xianning’s talent.
Rong Xianning smiled slightly, "It’s my honor."
Amos bent down to help Lin Shu up, "Your performance of the Spring Song was also very good, skillful and full of emotion. You’ll surely have a bright future."
Lin Shu didn’t expect the notoriously quirky young man to be so gentle and easygoing.
Moreover, he understood music.
Amos looked at Li Wanqing, smiling, "I admire both of their talents. I still have matters about music to discuss with them. May I take them away?"
Li Wanqing felt the gaze on her was particularly cold, stifling her. She wanted to refuse and then mercilessly humiliate him, asking who he thought he was to take people away.
"Of course, but Mr. Mei Fei, you’re of noble stature, you should be mindful in your interactions and not be deceived by those with intentions. I know a bit about music myself, so why don’t... ."
Before she could finish the sentence, Amos refused her without hesitation.
"No need. Miss Li has more important matters to attend to, let’s not waste your time."
Amos glanced at Rong Xianning, supporting Lin Shu as they turned to leave.
Rong Xianning hurriedly stepped forward to follow; this time, no one dared to stop them.
"Oh, by the way." Amos took a couple of steps and suddenly turned around to glance at the group of girls, with an enigmatic and chilling smile.
"You’d better delete all the videos on your phones. If they get circulated and I find out, in less than half an hour, I assure you that your private provocative photos will be on every fanboy’s USB drive."
After speaking, he left without caring how disturbing his words might be for the girls, leaving without a glance back.
His tall silhouette seemed so free and unrestrained, eliciting both love and hate.
Lin Shu looked back at Li Wanqing, with a secretive curve at the corner of her mouth, before turning back calmly before Li Wanqing could explode.
"Arghhhhh... ." Li Wanqing frantically fumed in place.
"Why did Amos intervene? I’m furious, I’m furious."
The women were terrified of Amos. After all, regardless of his background or those rumored unpredictable methods, they were things they could not afford to provoke, making them obediently delete all videos on their phones.
"Wanqing, you shouldn’t have chosen today to deal with Lin Shu, instead you gave her a chance; see, she took advantage of this to climb up to Amos? We tried to steal a chicken but ended up losing the rice, our efforts went in vain."
"Yes, maybe she connected with Amos during the performance; otherwise, how coincidental that Amos showed up. Initially, I was puzzled how a top student from a music academy ended up performing at a banquet. Turns out all along it was aimed at Amos. Her mind is deeper than yours, sister."
Li Wanqing glared fiercely at the girl who spoke, grinding her teeth, "That bitch? Next time I hear you speak such shameless words, I’ll cut your tongue."
The girl stuck out her tongue in fear, not daring to speak again.
The girls exchanged glances, feeling that the moment Lin Shu was involved, Li Wanqing became overly impulsive, which wasn’t a good thing.
