School Beauty's Personal Martial Expert-Chapter 228: Trouble is coming

Zhao Xiaotian frowned slightly and said, "What good can come from him looking for you? I bet it’s just trouble. Jack, I advise you to stop associating with him."

Jack appeared to be in a difficult position and took a moment before saying, "Xiaotian, why don’t you go eat first? I’ll go and have a proper talk with Xu Renjie. I’ll tell him to stop making things difficult for us in the future."

Zhao Xiaotian rolled his eyes and said, "Jack, are you really that scared of Xu Renjie? Ha, what’s he worth? In front of Boss, he’s less than an ant, nothing to be afraid of."

Jack awkwardly smiled. To say he wasn’t scared would be something not even he believed. After all, although Boss was powerful, he couldn’t be there to protect him every moment. He said, "I’ll still go. Xu Renjie has been pretty good to me before, I trust he won’t do anything to me. Go ahead to the cafeteria, Xiaotian." With that, he turned and walked away.

"Damn it, Jack!" Zhao Xiaotian was dizzy with anger. In just these few days, because of Leng Xuan, his relationship with Jack had escalated to a brotherly level. How could he let Jack face danger alone now? He sighed and chased after Jack with a jog.

"Since you’re going, I’ll go with you," Zhao Xiaotian said with loyal determination.

Jack looked at Zhao Xiaotian with gratitude and said, "Xiaotian, you better not go out. I’ve been with Xu Renjie for over a year, he probably won’t do anything to me, but you..."

"Enough with that, don’t talk like we’re strangers," Zhao Xiaotian said. "Xu Renjie is a bad egg. If he’s asking you out, it’s definitely not for anything good."

Seeing Zhao Xiaotian’s firm expression, Jack didn’t insist further.

Classes had ended, and after waiting outside for a while, Leng Xuan saw a girl in a school uniform walking towards him—it was Zhou Li.

"Have you been waiting long?" Zhou Li asked somewhat shyly.

Leng Xuan smiled slightly and said, "It’s alright. Shall we go?"

Zhou Li gave an "mm-hmm" and walked side by side with Leng Xuan towards Sanlian Village...

Because he planned to treat Leng Xuan to lunch, Zhou Jingpeng hadn’t spent much time at his street stall today; he packed up early, bought some chicken, duck, fish, meat, and had already cooked the dishes, just waiting for Leng Xuan to come for lunch.

Just as Zhou Jingpeng finished busy in the kitchen, he suddenly heard a knock on the door. Overjoyed, he said, "That was quick! They’ve only just finished classes." He prepared to open the door, but all of a sudden, there was a loud ’bang’, and the door was kicked open with a foot.

Zhou Jingpeng had just reached the living room when he saw seven or eight unfamiliar men rushing into the house. The one leading looked quite handsome, dressed casually, not like an ordinary thug. He glanced at Zhou Jingpeng and asked, "Are you Zhou Jingpeng?"

Zhou Jingpeng’s brows furrowed and he said, "I am. Who are you guys?"

The man in casual wear lit a cigarette for himself and said indifferently, "As long as you’re him, that’s enough!" He gestured with his hand, and the other men immediately looked ready to pounce, heading towards Zhou Jingpeng.

Zhou Jingpeng could tell these men were here for trouble, but it was all very confusing as he didn’t know what he had done to offend them. Now, reliant on a walking stick, it wasn’t going to be easy to fend off so many by himself. Just as he was feeling the pressure, suddenly, a tense voice came from the doorway: "Hey, who are you guys, don’t hurt my brother!"
