Chapter 1: Are you sick?

  Su Shan walked ahead, carrying a ball bag and drinking apple juice. The ponytail tied with a black silk ribbon swayed back and forth, stirring the hearts and desires of all the men who brushed past her and couldn't help but turn their heads to look back at her.

  Tang Chong kept a distance of about one meter from her, following closely but not too close, sipping the orange juice in his cup.

  It's probably because of the spiritual connection between siblings that Tang Chong also likes this sour and sweet drink.

  The orange juice that Su Shan bought was more sour than the ones he had drunk before, so sour that it made him shudder, and every hair on his body stood up.

  Su Shan didn't speak and Tang Chong couldn't think of anything to talk about either.

  She's too clever and has a strong presence. It seems that whenever she talks about any topic, it makes her realize the poverty of her own thoughts - in that case, might as well shut up.

  Unfortunately, this quiet atmosphere was soon disrupted by a piercing sound.

  A black Audi A8 came to a stop right at the edge of the intersection in front of Mount Su after a beautiful drift.

  The rear door opened and a bespectacled boy emerged from the back seat with a big smile.

  Even if he tried his best to straighten his body, Tang Zhong could still tell at a glance ----- He was a hunchback.

  Young people these days are too lazy, and when they walk, they inevitably have a bit of a hunchback. But this guy with glasses is obviously more hunched than others. His lower body is straight, but from the waist down it's curved. His head is tilted forward, like he's doing the chicken feed pecking motion.

  He stood by the car door, waiting for Su Shan to take the initiative to get close.

  Su Shan's expression was slightly unexpected, but she still walked over as usual.

  "Are you going to tell me the result of your consideration?" Su Shan asked proactively.

  "I've already told you the result. When you refused my second condition, my answer was already very clear." Yu Mu adjusted his glasses and looked at the girl in front of him with a surprised gaze. Her face was flawless, but what moved him most was her elegant and composed demeanor. Her figure was slender, with a small waist and long legs. She would make a suitable young mistress for the Yu family. No wonder Old Lady Yu had mentioned her to him several times. "I came to remind you of something."

  "What's up?" Su Shan asked calmly.

  "You seem to have forgotten what I said." Yu Mu smiled slyly and said. When his gaze fell on Tang Chong's body, it became playful. "I said, I want you to be my woman."

  "I remember," Su Shan said. "I didn't promise."

  "It's up to you whether or not you agree," said Youmu. "Since I've already said that, then... your business is my business."

  His eyes recklessly sized up Tang Chong and asked, "What should I call you?"

  Tang Zhong. The Tang of the Tang ancestors, the heavy of weight. Tang Zhong said with a smile. In his heart, he thought, why did he always meet either fools or madmen? Just now, he had walked out of the crazy house in Hen Shan Prison, and unexpectedly came to an even bigger and more terrifying crazy house.

  "Oh. Good name." Youmu nodded in praise. "Game's You, nomad's Mu... and compared to your name, mine is too low-key."

  "Compared with your name, your appearance is more low-key." Tang Zhong said.

  Su Shan turned around in surprise, then raised the corners of her mouth and smiled lightly.

  Because everyone knows he's a pervert, no one has ever dared to speak to Youmuo like that. Not even Lu Junzhuo, who is from a similar background, dares to do so.

  It's precisely because of this that nomadic herding has a certain reputation within a small circle.

  Does this guy know who he's challenging?

  His appearance was a taboo in the hearts of nomads, and no one had ever dared to mention such a thing in front of him.

  Even, no one dared to praise another person's good looks in front of him.

  Only this guy-----

  His sarcastic tone and teasing words were so hurtful, deeply hurting Yu Mu's strong yet fragile self-esteem.

  He opened his mouth and laughed, the skin on his face completely splitting apart, but the smile was so sinister. It was like a toad suddenly opening its mouth and smiling at you, as terrifying as it was.

  "You must be very confident and satisfied with yourself?" Yu Mu asked with a smile, looking Tang Chong up and down.

  "It's okay," said Tang Chong. "Actually, I was better-looking than I am now."

  "I saw your performance just now," said the nomad. "From the moment you and those trash started fighting to when you carried one of them into the toilet, I saw it all. Ruthless, direct, and merciless. I have to say, I appreciate your style. You and I are on the same wavelength."

  "We are not on the same road." Tang Zhong shook his head. He pointed to the Audi parked beside him and said, "You have a car to come and go, I can only walk."

  The nomad laughed loudly and said: "How interesting. I've grown quite fond of you."

  Tang Chong wanted to say something but stopped himself and gave up, saying: "I really envy you - I'm facing you, but I really can't say this sentence."

  After hearing Tang Chong's words, the smile on Youmu's face became even more eerie. He pointed to Su Shan and asked, "Do you know who she is?"

  "I know," said Tang Chong. "Not just me, all the boys in our school know, right?"

  "That's also true." Yu Mu nodded. "Consecutively ranked as the undisputed school flower of Nan Da for three years, consecutively ranked as the number one beauty in the Ming Zhu University circle... completely crushing the music academy's school flower Cai Si Rong and the art academy's school flower Zhang Jing. Oh, it should be the fourth year now? Indeed quite famous."

  Tang Chong laughed and said, "It seems you understand her better than I do."

  "This I won't deny. And what we understand is different." Yu Mu said with a smile. He understood her family background, her origins, her likes and dislikes, and her ideals, etc., etc. These were not things that outsiders could know.

  "Yes. We understand things differently." Tang Zhong also said. He had Tang Xin's diary in his hand, which contained too many secrets of 'Su San'. These were not something that outsiders could know about.

  Nomad pointed at Su Shan and said: "You want to hit on her?"

  Tang nodded seriously and said: "But she said I'm not her type."

  "Oh, I can understand that." Yu Mu's heart suddenly felt much more at ease. Although his request had been rejected by Su Shan, but... others' pursuit of her had also been rejected. "However, I still need to remind you, she is the woman I have my eye on. She will be mine in the future too."

  "What's next?"

  "Then?" The nomad's eyes turned cold and he said, "Judging from your actions just now, I think you're a clever person. Why do I need to spell it out clearly and hurt my own dignity as well as yours?"

  "Because she's the woman you're after, I should stay away from her as far as possible, is that it?" Tang Zhong couldn't help but burst out laughing. He had always thought of himself as a very proud person, but compared to this guy in front of him, he was practically the epitome of humility and kindness.

  "You can think of these things yourself, I'm glad." Yu Mu didn't deny it. He also didn't care that Su Shan was present, nor did he care about her thoughts. What he wanted to say, he would say. What he wanted to do, he would do. His birth made him a deformed freak that people ridiculed, but at least it gave him something else in compensation.

  He really enjoys this feeling. Only at this time does he feel that he is high above, and his spine is so straight and upright.

  "If you accept my advice, there will be no conflict between us." Yu Mu continued. "Are you interested in coming over to help me? I don't know if Su Shan has invited you to join the Red Eagle, but I can guarantee that I can provide a broader platform than the Red Eagle..."

  "I don't know what Red Eagle is," Tang Zhong said frankly. He and Su Shan only 'met' today, so it's impossible for Su Shan to invite him to join the Red Eagle. Moreover, he didn't even know what kind of organization the Red Eagle was. "I don't know if I will join or not - if she invites me, maybe I will. Maybe not. But one thing is for sure, I won't take your advice."

  Tang Chong glanced at Su Shan, narrowed his eyes and smiled. "Although we've known each other for a short time, I feel like we've known each other for many years. I cherish this friendship - and besides, she even treated me to a glass of juice. I have no reason to give up on a friend because of your one sentence. If I did that, I wouldn't be worthy of being her friend. She would never look at me straight in the eye again - isn't that what you wanted?"

  A strange gleam flashed in Su Shan's eyes, and instantly returned to calmness.

  She is a person who dislikes showing emotions because she thinks it will make people see through her.

  She doesn't like this naked feeling. Just as she doesn't like wearing too revealing clothes.

  "Are you sure?" Yu Mu asked.

  "Definitely." Tang Zhong said with certainty.

  "Alright then." The nomad nodded. "Break one of his legs."

  "I'd be happy to help." A young man with a short haircut and casual attire standing behind the nomad said excitedly.

  His facial features were sharp and handsome, but his eyes were as sharp as a vulture's, giving people a feeling of fear. He rubbed his fists and looked at Tang Chong as if he was looking at a delicious meal.

  He took a step forward, just blocking Youmu on one side. This way, he could let Youmu continue to take the lead while protecting him - most importantly, he could attack Tang Ye at any time.

  A master's skill is evident from the very start.

  Although this guy just took a casual step forward, you can tell a lot from his posture.

  "He's a master!" Tang Zhong thought to himself.
