By now, plenty of early students had already arrived at school. They couldn't help but stare in amazent as a drop-dead gorgeous, angelic girl at the school gate was relentlessly kicking a big guy—right in the face. The spectacle was so bizarre that the crowd watching kept growing.
Song Ci couldn't care less whether anyone was watching. Still fuming with rage, she kept delivering kick after kick, pumling the cocky Song Renhui—who fancied himself the future head of the family—until he was screaming like a butchered pig.
Although Song Renzong had always been one to avoid violence, watching his little sister take a swing was oddly satisfying. And now that there was no holding back, he didn't see any reason to worry about Song Renhui anymore—especially since he'd felt the urge to join in with a few kicks himself just a minute ago.
Still, even while venting his anger, Song Renzong was concerned about dragging Ye Fei into trouble. "Ah Fei," he asked, "this isn't gonna get you into any ss, is it?"
"Trouble? What trouble could there be?" Ye Fei sneered dismissively.
Song Renzong continued, "Song Renhui might co off all cocky, but he can be pretty sneaky sotis. I'm worried that once he gets back, he'll use his connections to put pressure on you."
"I'm looking forward to that," Ye Fei replied coolly. "Then I'll have an excuse to clear this obstacle for you. Besides, the future of the Song family is better off in your hands anyway."
Song Renzong's heart skipped a beat. He'd seen Song Renhui's attitude toward Ye Fei earlier, and being less carefree than Song Ci, he sensed sothing serious was going on. He didn't think Ye Fei was all talk. Deep down, he felt not only gratitude but also a twinge of awe for this kid, who was even a year younger than him.
"I heard from your sister that this guy even keeps putting down your friends. What's his deal?" Song Renzong asked.
Ye Fei couldn't help but let out a bitter chuckle. Finding a genuine friend was tougher than he'd imagined. But as long as they weren't enemies, he figured it was fine. He did admire the guy a bit, though people from such prestigious families rarely forge true friendships.
When it ca to Song Xuan, he'd done pretty well, so for her sake, he'd be willing to help Song Renzong—if only as a mutual arrangent. After all, the kid wouldn't dare do anything that could hurt him.
What Song Renzong didn't know was that his lifelong habit of cautiousness—a trait he'd always prided himself on—had cost him the one chance to truly connect with Ye Fei. As a result, despite his future glory, he'd never have a real friend in his life.
Song Renzong sighed bitterly. "He's trying to stifle our progress. He wants to control all the family resources—and he won't even let us, his brothers, tap into his network."
Ye Fei was almost speechless. Calling Song Renhui "brain-dead" didn't even begin to cover it. A family's progress isn't built on the might of one man unless that man is as insanely powerful as Ye Fei himself—and Song Renhui was far from that. Otherwise, he wouldn't be getting his face bashed by Song Ci—a girl who wasn't even skilled in martial arts.
Just then, Song Ci returned. The beaten-up Song Renhui on the ground looked like a total ss, probably why she had lost interest in continuing the beating.
Reaching Ye Fei's side, Song Ci shrugged and declared, "Alright, that's enough!"
Ye Fei nodded at her, snapped his fingers to lift the control spell on Song Renhui, and said coolly, "I don't ever want to see you around Wanghai again. And tell those Zhang family types that since Song Xuan is here, she's one of us. I don't want anyone else ssing with her!"
Song Renhui slowly got to his feet without a word, not even caring about his four henchn as he drove off. But in his heart, he had already grown to despise Ye Fei and the Song siblings.
As for Ye Fei, he was untouchable—soone even his grandpa wouldn't dare ss with. But Song Renzong and Song Ci were in a different league. Song Renhui planned to go back and tattle to his grandpa, claiming that they had tead up with outsiders to bully the family heir.
None of the three cared what Song Renhui was scheming. Ye Fei didn't give a damn, and the siblings were resigned anyway—after all, their family only respected that playboy, leaving them with no real clout, so they might as well let him rant.
As Ye Fei waved goodbye and prepared to leave, Song Ci suddenly grabbed his arm, her voice soft and unexpectedly gentle: "Ye Fei, will you accept ?" Her usually rebellious, big eyes shone with a pleading charm.
Ye Fei shivered inwardly. Could it be that this girl had fallen for him after seeing him in action? If that were the case... it wouldn't be too bad. Sure, she might be a bit tough, but she was undeniably stunning—look at that innocent face, and then there's her... well, her figure wasn't exactly impressive. But no matter. With a little work, she'd co into her own, and with that wild streak, she'd be an unbeatable partner in the bedroom.
Lost in his hype, Ye Fei grinned and said, "Alright, I'll do it."
"Really?" Song Ci bead with joy, imdiately bowing to him and exclaiming, "Song Ci pays respects to her master!"
"Huh? You want to beco my disciple?" Ye Fei was instantly frozen, his face turning a bit red—damn, he'd been way too full of himself!
"Yeah, what did you think?" Song Ci replied, not overthinking it as she hugged his arm tightly. "You promised, so no backing out!"
Even though her gesture was pretty suggestive—and she was a one-in-a-million beauty—her barely noticeable perky chest didn't exactly catch Ye Fei's interest. Clearing his throat awkwardly, he said, "But I don't have much to teach you anyway."
"Who said I don't? The way you sent those guys flying, and that move that nearly left Song Renhui flat on his back—wow, that was aweso!" Song Ci's big eyes sparkled with admiration as she practically cooed at him.
"Oh, so it's all about martial arts, huh?" Ye Fei said, finally catching on. "Your brother can do that too. Why don't you have him teach you?"
"Please, with his half-assed skills, damn it…" Song Ci started to complain, but then she quickly glanced at Ye Fei. Seeing he wasn't bothered, she rephrased, "I'm just not interested in learning anyway."
