C33 – Zhu Boyi Was Looking for Trouble

Jiao Yuanju’s phone began to ring.

To his surprise, it was a call from Jiao Qiulan!

“Hello, Jiao Yuanju?”

With a hint of joy in his voice, Jiao Yuanju responded, “Jiao Qiulan, what’s up?”

Jiao Qiulan’s tone was detached. “Mom didn’t pick up my call. I wanted to check in on Dad. How is he?”

“He’s fine. Mom’s probably at work.”

Despite the coldness, Jiao Yuanju couldn’t help but ask cheerfully, “How are you holding up at Riverdale Institute, Jiao Qiulan? Do you have enough for your living expenses?”

“I’m managing fine, and I’m earning my own living expenses,” Jiao Qiulan replied evenly.

Jiao Yuanju’s brow furrowed with concern. “I’ve heard the competition at Riverdale is intense. Your academics are strong, but with a less capable Combat Pet, you’re limited to theoretical studies. That must be draining.”

Seconds later, Jiao Yuanju sent Jiao Qiulan 5,000 Alliance Coins.

Jiao Qiulan was astounded. “Jiao Yuanju, where did you get so much money?”

With a chuckle, Jiao Yuanju said, “I earned it through my own efforts. Focus on your studies, Jiao Qiulan, and don’t hesitate to reach out if you’re facing any difficulties.”

After a brief pause, Jiao Yuanju added earnestly, “You have to remember, I’m your brother. From here on out, I won’t let you be wronged. I’ll work hard, and I want you to have a better life there too!”

Jiao Qiulan was momentarily speechless, her beautiful eyes brimming with emotion. Jiao Yuanju seemed different somehow, but she remained silent.

Jiao Yuanju still had twenty thousand Alliance Coins from Lei Sheng that he hadn’t touched.

Yet, not all shared the sentiment; the Azure Academy girls were captivated by the tall, imposing, and roguishly handsome Zhu Boyi.

Such was the way of the girls. In times of peace, countless celebrities and idols had won over legions of devoted female fans. Despite humanity’s trials, the Puwhary Alliance remained tranquil. But in any era, for these girls, “beauty is justice.”

Still, their reverence for Jiao Yuanju was evident; they respectfully cleared a path for him.

Zhu Boyi’s expression darkened at the sight of Jiao Yuanju. With a frosty demeanor, he said, “Jiao Yuanju, I half-expected you’d have gotten wind of my visit and fled your academy in fear!”

Jiao Yuanju quirked an eyebrow and asked, “Do I know you?”

Zhu Boyi retorted with fury, “Heyi has been my friend since childhood. It doesn’t matter that we’re no longer at the same academy; she’s off-limits to you. I’m here to make it clear—back off!”

With a serene smile, Jiao Yuanju responded, “And what business is my relationship with her to you? Moreover, she’s the deputy head of Class 7 and a key player on my team. Why shouldn’t I look out for her?”

Zhu Boyi scoffed, “So, you’re disrespecting me now?”

“Is your dad Jing Le?” Jiao Yuanju countered.

Zhu Boyi was at a loss for words.

Jiao Yuanju couldn’t resist mocking him, “Since your dad isn’t Jing Le, and I’m certainly not your dad, just who do you think you are?”

Jiao Yuanju’s authoritative and aloof declaration echoed, silencing the crowd instantly. Everyone, men and women alike, watched in awe.

Jiao Yuanju’s arrogance was palpable, yet it dawned on the Azure Academy crowd that he had every right to be. As their top student, why shouldn’t he carry himself with such confidence?

“Snake King, we’ve got your back! They’re nothing but outsiders. What right do they have to strut around? Show them how it’s done!”

“We’re behind you all the way to uphold Azure Academy’s honor!”

The audience was ablaze with fervor for Jiao Yuanju, while they hurled insults at the trio from Apex Academy.Visit novelbin(.)com for the latest updates
