Chapter 112 The Grass on the Top of the Wall
Even with her heavy makeup, Long Xinyue couldn't hide the discoloration of her cheeks that revealed her extreme embarrassment and anger.
At this moment, Long Xinyue found no way to save her face, and her heart was filled with resentment towards Fang Yu! This gathering was supposed to be her moment to shine. However, everything Fang Yu did left her with no way out.
Long Xinyue shivered with rage.
Shao Xin quickly stepped forward and said, "Long Xinyue, do you really want to make a big deal out of this?"
"Am I the one who wants to make a big deal? Or is it him?" Long Xinyue pointed at Fang Yu, "Do you know what my husband does for a living? Do you? You don't know! Just wait, you'll regret it later!"
Shao Xin shook his head expressionlessly, "This is Everest Nine O'Clock. Your husband's status is of no use here."
As soon as he finished speaking.
A male classmate from the group behind him jumped out and said, "That's right, Long Xinyue, how could you do this? Fang Yu didn't even say anything. And how could you curse at the hotel manager like that? It's so uncouth."
"That's right. It's so uncouth."
"Long Xinyue, I think you should apologize to Fang Yu."
"Yes, apologize!"
…
Hearing these classmates, who were buttering her up just moments ago, now ridiculing her nonstop, Long Xinyue was furious. She turned her head and with a cold gaze swept over them, saying, "You want me to apologize? Who do you think you are? A moment ago, you were shamelessly pleading with me, and now you turn your backs on me. Are you even human?"
This insult, especially to the male classmates, was too much to bear.
Everyone who came here was an elite, people who cared about their reputation, and none could tolerate such insults from Long Xinyue.
Someone from the group stepped forward and cursed, "Wow, Long Xinyue, you still have the face to accuse us? You think you're amazing because you have some money? Can you afford a case of '82 Lafite? Stop pretending, you're nothing but a sugar baby reliant on her sugar daddy."
The last sentence pierced Long Xinyue like a thorn.
Long Xinyue immediately turned red-eyed and looked at the group, ready to curse like a shrew.
But with so many voices around, the classmates continued speaking one after another.
"How can someone be like this?!"
"Isn't she just using her sugar daddy and husband for money? That's what you call a scheming bitch!"
"Damn, you have no skills but still dare to curse. So shameless!"
"Go away, crazy old hag, this is not the place for you to throw a tantrum."
The common will can build a city, the common voice can shatter gold.
Alone, Long Xinyue was immediately drowned in the saliva of the crowd. Even with her sharp tongue, she couldn't stand alone.
After a moment, she staggered several steps, her face turning pale.
Seeing this, Shao Xin, the president of the student council, shook his head and exchanged glances with Fang Yu, meaning, let it go, after all, it was Shao Xin who initiated this gathering, and a big incident like this was her greatest responsibility.
Fang Yu, on the other hand, couldn't be bothered to argue with someone like her, and smiled at the hotel manager, "Let's just end this matter here, how does that sound?"
"She just insulted Mr. Gu earlier," the hotel manager said with a stern face, "According to our rules, we're supposed to cut off her tongue!"
At this, the whole room fell silent.
Cut off her tongue!
Who wouldn't be scared?
"Someone will take care of her. No need for you to act," Fang Yu said, "I will personally explain this matter to Mr. Gu."
The manager's face softened as he said, "Mr. Fang has spoken, if I didn't agree, I'd be ungrateful."
Then turning to Long Xinyue, he said, "If there's a next time, we'll act according to the rules!"
Long Xinyue shivered all over, her teeth chattering.
"Get lost, stop embarrassing yourself here!" someone from the crowd spoke up.
Long Xinyue could no longer stay here with any dignity, and with clenched teeth, she swept her gaze over everyone.
Her eyes stopped on Fang Yu, filled with bitterness, "You think you're great because you know some people, right? Just wait and see, I'll make you regret this!"
"Wait!"
Fang Yu spoke up.
"What more do you want? Are you going to hit me?" Long Xinyue glared as she spoke.
"What's the name of your husband?" Fang Yu asked.
"Are you scared?"
Before Long Xinyue could finish, a classmate behind said, "Her husband's name is Du Youming. He has some business in Jiangzhou and is quite influential."
The classmates also realized that Fang Yu seemed to have some connections, so they began to echo this sentiment.
Fang Yu nodded, took out his phone, and made a call.
"Hello, Little Gu..."
The others could only hear Fang Yu's side of the conversation and had no idea who this Little Gu was.
They couldn't possibly connect Little Gu with Boss Gu.
"Help me look into a guy named Du Youming. I don't think he's suitable to stay in Jiangzhou... Yeah, you take care of it. Okay, that's it... You must get it done within three minutes."
He hung up the phone.
Long Xinyue glared and said, "Bluffing, you think I would be scared of you? If you have the guts, why not use the speakerphone?"
She was convinced that Fang Yu was just a garbage loser. Even if you know big shots, so what? They are always someone else, not you!
Fang Yu smiled without saying a word.
Just a few minutes after she had spoken, Long Xinyue's phone rang. She took out her phone and saw that it was her husband calling; she couldn't help but say excitedly, "See? It's my husband calling. All of you wait and see, I'll put it on speaker! Scare you to death!"
Beep—
The moment the call connected, a string of profanities burst forth:
"You stinking b*tch, hurry the hell up and get back here! The great thing you've done, the great thing you've done... it's over, everything is over..."
Long Xinyue was stunned.
The voice on the phone continued to curse: "You stinking b*tch... The great thing you've done! Of all the people to mess with, you just had to mess with Boss Gu..."
"—"
Long Xinyue's mind went blank, and she began to tremble all over.
Not caring about her image anymore, she grabbed her phone and ran outside—
As the woman left, the entire hall suddenly became lively, one by one coming up to greet Fang Yu.
All sorts of flattery, praising how good Fang Yu's reputation was, saying how strong he was.
"Bro Yu, you're not being loyal. Having such a big shot as a friend and not introducing him to us," someone said with a sly smile, full of fawning and flattery.
Fang Yu's expression remained indifferent; he was silent.
"Bro Yu, are you working at the same hospital as Peipei now?" a woman in the crowd joked, "You guys wouldn't happen to be dating, right?"
The crowd continued to throng around him.
From initially looking down on Fang Yu, to fawning over him, and now to being at a loss. No one knew that Fang Yu actually knew a big shot, saying it was just a casual acquaintance, which means Fang Yu intentionally dressed down to come here.
The women also regretted it, thinking if they had just chatted with him nicely at the beginning. Maybe through him, they could meet influential people.
The mood among the female students suddenly became even more jovial. They all came up to toast him.
Looking at these sycophantic expressions, Fang Yu felt an insurmountable disgust and aversion in his heart.
"Sorry, I prefer it quietly... If you believe you deserve to stay here, then stay."
As soon as he finished speaking.
Those people didn't dare linger any longer and ran out!
