Ch 240: Kong Yunmeng’s Sacrifice

Su Chen was slightly startled by the situation; at first glance, he thought he had encountered a zombie siege.

Then, Su Chen was surrounded by his former classmates. Everyone was apologizing to him, everyone was trying their best to flatter him, putting themselves in the humblest posture, a 180-degree turn from their previous attitude.

They couldn’t help but be humble. Even a big shot like Xiao Caiyin was behaving submissively in front of Su Chen, indicating that Su Chen must be doing incredibly well now.

As for why Su Chen was dressed so poorly just now, they now believed it was a peculiar quirk or a perverse hobby of a rich person.

In short, in their eyes, whatever a rich person does is right.

“CEO Su, what happened just now wasn’t our intention; we were led astray by Cheng Feichi and Kong Yunmeng.”

“Yes, CEO Su, you mustn’t misunderstand good people; we have always admired you.”

“It’s all Cheng Feichi’s fault; he has always been jealous of you.”

“And Kong Yunmeng, she didn’t hold back from speaking ill of you in front of us…”

While apologizing to Su Chen, they shifted all the blame onto Cheng Feichi and Kong Yunmeng, distancing themselves from the situation.

Cheng Feichi and Kong Yunmeng, isolated, were pale and extremely flustered. When Su Chen’s gaze fell upon them, Cheng Feichi was so frightened that he shuddered, hurriedly bowed and apologized to Su Chen, repeatedly saying “I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”

As for Kong Yunmeng, she felt immense regret. If she had known that Su Chen was doing so well, she wouldn’t have looked down on him for anything in the world!

Recalling her intimacy with Su Chen in high school, she now felt like she had lost one hundred million!

No, it’s far more than one hundred million; it’s many hundreds of millions!

Especially, Su Chen, now in new clothes, was a true case of a frog turning into a prince. He was countless times more handsome than before, the entire person seemed to be glowing, overshadowing all the men present.

Cheng Feichi was completely outmatched in his presence.

Thus, Kong Yunmeng felt even more miserable, wishing she could slap herself.

“Su Chen, I’m sorry. I wrongly believed Cheng Feichi, leading me to misunderstand you, and this makes me feel incredibly guilty and sad.” Kong Yunmeng quickly adjusted her mental state, walked to Su Chen, her face bearing wronged and regretful expressions. In a coquettish tone, she said, “Su Chen, considering that we were deskmates before, can you give me a chance to make amends?”

She blinked her large eyes, lightly biting her lip, revealing endless charm. Everyone was an adult; they naturally understood the underlying meaning.

This so-called making amends naturally meant letting Su Chen do as he pleased. As long as Su Chen was satisfied, she was willing to pay any price.

The other male classmates’ eyes turned red with envy when they heard this!

That’s Kong Yunmeng, the dream lover of all the boys in the class. How many boys dreamed of getting close to her but never had the chance? Yet now, Kong Yunmeng was actively offering herself. If it were them, they would have readily agreed without hesitation!

Cheng Feichi, standing beside, turned green with envy, clenching his fists, gnashing his teeth, feeling incredibly suffocated and angry.

He had pursued Kong Yunmeng for so long, spent so much money, and at most had only held her hand. Yet now, Kong Yunmeng was actively offering herself to Su Chen!

The thought of them being intimate caused him immense suffering; his eyes were bloodshot.

But he dared not express any dissatisfaction, only dared to keep his head down, because the current Su Chen was someone he could not afford to offend.

Su Chen was stunned. He naturally understood Kong Yunmeng’s meaning. It was true that Kong Yunmeng was indeed beautiful, and he had indeed been attracted to her before. However, Kong Yunmeng was no longer the same Kong Yunmeng as before.

And he, Su Chen, was not someone who would take anything.

“Forget about making amends; there’s no conflict between us,” Su Chen said calmly.

Kong Yunmeng’s face turned pale. Su Chen had actually rejected her offer?

Some of the female classmates immediately showed schadenfreude, mocking her.

“It’s not about making amends; I just want to treat you to a meal,” Kong Yunmeng said somewhat resentfully.

Su Chen waved his hand, “No need, it would avoid misunderstandings with Cheng Feichi.”

After saying this, he ignored Kong Yunmeng and went to greet Class Teacher Gong Jialiang.

Su Chen’s rejection caused Kong Yunmeng to lose face, her complexion turning extremely pale.

Class Teacher Gong Jialiang looked at Su Chen with relief, exclaiming, “Excellent, excellent! Su Chen, you truly haven’t let me down. I am very happy as your teacher.”

Su Chen smiled and said, “It’s because of your good teaching, Teacher.”

At that moment, Su Chen’s mobile phone rang. He took it out and found that it was a call from Grand Tutor Hua!

Su Chen’s pupils instantly constricted.

Could it be that Grand Tutor Hua had recognized him?

For a moment, Su Chen wanted to hang up directly!

His reason ultimately stopped him. If he hung up directly, he would be acting guilty, completely offending Grand Tutor Hua.

With his current strength, he was not strong enough to contend with Grand Tutor Hua.

Stay calm, he had to stay calm.

Grand Tutor Hua calling him didn’t necessarily mean he had recognized him; there might be other things.

After figuring this out, Su Chen decisively answered the phone.

“Hello, Grand Tutor, is there anything?”

“What, can’t I call you if there’s nothing?”

“Of course not.”

Grand Tutor Hua’s voice came from the phone, “Su Chen, are you free tonight? Come over to my house for dinner.”

Grand Tutor Hua’s voice was very cheerful and enthusiastic, showing no suspicion at all.

Even so, Su Chen remained cautious. His mind raced, and he said, “Thank you for the invitation, Grand Tutor. Is Miss Hua having some trouble?”

“No, no,” Grand Tutor Hua said with a laugh. “Yuèróng is doing fine now. What, is my face so insignificant that I can’t even invite you to dinner?”

Su Chen said, “Of course not, I’m just concerned about Miss Hua.”

Grand Tutor Hua laughed and said, “Then that’s settled. If it’s inconvenient for you, I can send a helicopter to pick you up.”

Su Chen said, “It’s fine, I’ll drive myself.”

Grand Tutor Hua and Su Chen chatted for a few more sentences before hanging up.

It was still early for dinner, so Su Chen didn’t need to rush. However, Su Chen still left the class reunion, because he needed to adjust his state. He had to avoid Grand Tutor Hua discovering his injuries, and he couldn’t let Grand Tutor Hua recognize his back.

He needed to carefully plan this.

As for these old classmates, Su Chen didn’t pay much attention to them anymore. Since he had activated the True Dragon Sacred Body and truly entered the Martial Artist realm, he and these old classmates were already people from two different worlds.

Five hours later, Su Chen had made all the preparations and headed towards Grand Tutor Hua’s mansion…
