"Zhu Qing, do you know him?" Ning Rongrong pointed and asked Zhu Zhuqing.
"Yes." Zhu Zhuqing nodded slightly, her face flushing again.
Ning Rongrong glanced at the zuzong, then at Zhu Zhuqing. Now she understood everything. She knew her best friend's boyfriend too. And he was so strong, easily defeating Dai Mubai. No wonder Zhu Qing looked down on Dai Mubai; she herself would have looked down on him too!
Just a moment later, the zuzong approached the group.
"Zhu Qing, you walked so fast just now, I forgot something for you."
Zhu Zhuqing glanced at the Shrek Academy members. Now there was no point in hiding her relationship with the zuzong. She then openly took his hand and smiled, "Let's go over there!"
Dai Mubai was furious to see Zhu Zhuqing being so intimate with another man in front of him. Previously, he had been chatting and laughing with that damned "Uchiha Clan" in the Soul Arena, which was one thing, but this time he actually held the zu zong's hand. In Dai Mubai's mind, the zuzong was the same kind of person as him, as could be seen from the two girls he was with last time. He never expected that after only "knowing" her for a few days, Zhu Zhuqing would be so easily seduced.
"Zhu Zhuqing, don't forget your place."
Zhu Zhuqing glanced at Dai Mubai and said coldly, "My affairs are none of your business."
"You—" Since Zhu Zhuqing came to Shrek Academy, Dai Mubai had been suppressing himself and tolerating her. Now, the usually aloof Dai Mubai could no longer contain his anger. "You stop right there."
Zhu Zhuqing ignored him and not only did not stop, but she also quickened her pace while holding the zuzong hand.
"You…" Dai Mubai suddenly raised his right hand, a strong white light emanating from his palm. He had never been good-tempered, or rather, his temper was more volatile than anyone else's.
Just as Dai Mubai was about to strike Zhu Zhuqing, he discovered that no matter how hard he tried, his fist wouldn't move an inch. It turned out that the zuzong had clamped his fist.
The zu zong's left hand was still holding Zhu Zhuqing, while his right hand was clamping Dai Mubai's wrist.
Dai Mubai's pupils contracted. He had only attacked Zhu Zhuqing in a fit of rage, completely disregarding the zuzong. He never expected this pretty boy to be so strong. He felt a burning pain in his wrist, as if it were being clamped, an unbearable agony.
"Let go!" Dai Mubai roared.
The zuzong ignored him, and with a slight exertion, a cracking sound rang out.
The next moment, Dai Mubai screamed, "Ah!"
The zuzong smiled and said, "Dare to attack my girlfriend? Who gave you the guts?"
"Let go of Boss Dai!" Seeing Dai Mubai at a disadvantage, Ma Hongjun, out of concern for his companion, shouted sharply. Oscar, suppressing his fear, stepped forward. This time, he was certain that the man before him was indeed the "Uchiha Clan" of the Soul Arena.
Tang San and Meng Yiran were also ready for battle at any moment; the fight was about to erupt. Tang San was incredibly excited. He had been looking for a reason to deal with this guy who made him grit his teeth, and now the guy had delivered himself to his doorstep.
"Stop! Zuzong!" It was Ning Rongrong who spoke. She had been distracted for a moment, but the situation had quickly escalated to a tense standoff.
The zuzong showed a hint of surprise. He had only met Ning Rongrong once, and he remembered exposing her truancy.
The zuzong said, "Then what advice does Miss Ning have?"
Ning Rongrong was taken aback, but immediately understood. So the other person thought she was going to help Dai Mubai! She quickly explained, "Dai Mubai made a mistake by attacking Zhu Qing. I'll tell the dean when we get back. But after all, he's still a student of Shrek Academy. You may be very powerful, but if you alarm our dean, Flander, he won't be happy if he finds out. So let's just leave it at that!"
Ning Rongrong tried to be tactful.
The zuzong nodded inwardly; it seemed Ning Rongrong wasn't unreasonable. He then looked at Zhu Qing and said, "Zhu Qing, what do you think?"
Although Zhu Zhu Qing didn't like Dai Mubai, considering that the dean might cause trouble for the zuzong later, she said, "Rongrong is right. Dean Flander is quite protective of his own. He's a level 78 Soul Saint. I don't want anything to happen to you, so let it go!"
The zuzong nodded. Sure enough, the little kitten cares about us the most. "Watch your eyes more in the future. I can't control that you like Zhu Qing, after all, she's so outstanding. But to beat up a girl just because you can't get her, you're not a man. Get lost!"
He then released Dai Mubai's hand and kicked him away with his size 40 foot. Fortunately, Ma Hongjun and Oscar caught him, otherwise Dai Mubai would have fallen flat on his face.
The zuzong then looked at Tang San and Meng Yiran, which surprised her. She didn't expect that Tang San, after losing Xiao Wu, had actually found a new girlfriend. The clan elder, feigning enthusiasm, asked Tang San, "Oh, it's Xiao San! This must be your sister-in-law!"
"Sister-in-law," Meng Yiran stammered, her face flushing. It was true she and Tang San were dating, but being mentioned in public by a stranger still made her shy.
Tang San glared at the zuzong, realizing there was no point in fighting today, and replied indifferently, "None of your business."
The zuzong shook his head, feigning profundity. "Fine, fine! It seems you're still blaming me for the first spirit ring."
Look at that expression, that tone—anyone who didn't know better would really think our zuzong had suffered some great injustice at Tang San's hands!
With that, the zuzong pulled Zhu Zhuqing away,
leaving the Shrek Seven Devils completely bewildered.
Meng Yiran asked, "Xiao San, do you know each other?"
Hearing Meng Yiran's question, Tang San's expression softened considerably, even becoming gentle. He said softly, "I'll tell you when we get back!"
Meng Yiran nodded, "Okay."
Watching the zuzong and Zhu Zhuqing's departing figures, Dai Mubai gave a self-deprecating smile. At this moment, he felt like a clown. Once upon a time, he had led countless others' fiancées away. Now, not only had he lost face in front of everyone in the Soul Arena, but he could only watch helplessly as his "fiancée" was taken away by someone else. Was this retribution?
Suddenly, Dai Mubai's pupils contracted. A thought flashed through his mind: Uchiha Clan zu, Zu Zong —could they be the same person?
"Brother Dai, I'm going to the Dean's shop today, are you coming?" Ma Hongjun suddenly said. A glint of excitement shone in his small eyes.
He saw Dai Mubai's blank stare, sometimes crying and sometimes laughing, and then remembered how the other had been humiliated and humiliated today. As his good friend, Ma Hongjun decided to take him out to relax and soothe his wounded soul.
The experienced Dai Mubai immediately understood, and was about to refuse, but then he thought of Zhu Zhuqing. Driven by a desire for revenge, he wasn't picky today; he'd just spend a little more money for a better experience, even if it meant savoring the atmosphere of a brothel.
"Okay, I'll go with you."
