Chapter 778 Luring the Enemy (2)
Lu Yu hung up the phone and looked at Han Xuefei, who was sitting beside him. He said, “Come with me. Something is going on with An Lan.”
Han Xuefei just nodded silently to that.
At this moment, Yun Zirou, who was also in the living room, couldn’t help but ask curiously, “The two of you have been inseparable for the past few days. Is there anything going on?”
She looked at the two of them with a smirk.
Han Xuefei looked at Yun Zirou angrily and replied softly, “Zirou, don’t talk nonsense. I’m accompanying Lu Yu to prevent him from being attacked mentally.”
“I see. I thought you two were dating.”
Lu Yu could not help but cough. “Stop that. In the future, don’t say things you’re unsure about.”
Yun Zirou shrugged her shoulders. She didn’t say anything else and continued with her things.
Lu Yu stood up and walked out of the suite, followed by Han Xuefei.
The two walked down the stairs one after another and arrived at the parking lot downstairs.
After getting into the car, Lu Yu set a destination and drove off.
Soon, they arrived at a high school in the city center.
This school was called the Star of the Future. It aimed to nurture as many geniuses as possible to strengthen the Star Science Chamber of Commerce.
When Lu Yu arrived at the entrance of the academy, he was stopped by the security guard.
“You don’t seem to be from this school. Either show your ID or give me your appointment letter!”
Lu Yu shook his head slightly. “I don’t have either. I’m not from the school and didn’t make an appointment.”
“However, tell your princ.i.p.al that someone called Lu Yu at the door wants to see him. He’ll come out when he hears this.”
The security guard sized up Lu Yu from head to toe. Seeing that Lu Yu was wearing an expensive suit, he naturally knew that Lu Yu was not an ordinary person.
“The people our princ.i.p.al usually meets are the wealthiest businessmen in Central City. May I ask, which company are you from?”
“I’m from the Qin Group. Is this company good enough for you?”
The security guard quickly nodded and replied respectfully, “I got it; I’ll report it to the princ.i.p.al immediately.”
He returned to the security booth and picked up his landline phone.
After some communication, he left the security booth and returned to Lu Yu.
“I just spoke to our princ.i.p.al on the phone. The two of you can go in. The princ.i.p.al’s office is on the corner of the second floor of the office building.”
The security guard opened the gates.
At this moment, An Lan, standing near the entrance, saw Lu Yu and quickly ran over.
She anxiously approached Lu Yu and said, “An Heng is in the princ.i.p.al’s office now. He hasn’t come out for some time, and I don’t know what’s happening.”
Lu Yu walked in quickly and entered the campus.
“Who is the new princ.i.p.al?” Lu Yu asked as they walked.
“The new princ.i.p.al was brought in from somewhere else. No one knows exactly how he got here.”
“Oh right, that princ.i.p.al is called Chen Qing.”
Lu Yu nodded slightly. “I understand.”
Soon, they quickly arrived at the office building and arrived at the door of the princ.i.p.al’s office.
He knocked on the door. A moment later, a voice sounded.
“Who is it?”
“Lu Yu!”
“Oh, do come in.”
Lu Yu pushed open the door and walked in.
After entering, he was surprised that An Heng was tied up and fixed to a chair. His mouth was also sealed with tape!
“Princ.i.p.al Chen Qing, right? You’re quite bold, holding An Heng hostage!” Lu Yu spat in an unfriendly tone.
Chen Qing sat in his office chair and smiled faintly.
He looked like an ordinary middle-aged man, but his thin, single eyelids made his eyes look vicious.
“Are you his family member?” Chen Qing asked.
“I’m his sister,” An Lan quickly answered. “I’m his biological sister. Why are you holding him hostage? He didn’t do anything wrong!”
Chen Qing shook his head and smiled. “It’s not up to you to decide whether he committed a crime. He fooled the school by being someone not from a prestigious family. He’s just a commoner.”
Hearing this, An Lan’s face instantly turned red with anger. She wanted to beat up this princ.i.p.al but could not take the risk, knowing her position.
In Central City, there were too many powers and wealth going around. She could easily provoke one of them and get tangled up in a mess. Therefore, she had been very cautious ever since she came to Central City.
“When he enrolled, Qin Yang was the one who admitted him. You should know that, right?”
Chen Qing spread his hands. “I’m sorry, I’ve never met Qin Yang. I didn’t know about this at all.”
“I see. Let’s talk about how you became the princ.i.p.al.”
Chen Qing pursed his lips and replied calmly, “My ability is good, so the higher-ups transferred me here. Is there a problem?”
Lu Yu smiled with disdain. “Above? Who’s above you? Are they even someone from the Star Science Chamber of Commerce?”
Chen Qing froze, pursed his lips nervously, and asked, “What do you mean? Who else can they be if the people above me aren’t from the Star Science Chamber of Commerce? Are you trying to frame me for colluding with the enemy?”
“Don’t get your knickers in a twist. I was just offering a hypothesis.” Lu Yu smiled faintly. He walked up to An Heng and tore off the tape on his mouth.
“Brother Lu Yu, this guy is nothing but a b.a.s.t.a.r.d. Why is he targeting me?” An Heng cried out in grievance, terrified after getting caught and tied up for no reason.
“I’ll make him pay the price. Don’t worry.”
When Chen Qing heard this, he gulped nervously.
“If you dare attack me here, the consequences will be grave!” He threatened Lu Yu.
Lu Yu looked at him and sneered. “What do you think will happen to me? No one can do anything to me, even if I kill you now!”
Chen Qing was getting increasingly nervous. “You’re jesting. You don’t think you can do whatever you want here, right? Don’t tell me you think Qin Yang is the strongest person in our Chamber of Commerce?”
“Let me tell you, some of the strongest members of the Star Science Chamber of Commerce are on the frontlines, and some are hiding in the city. They are responsible for maintaining order here.”
“If you act lawlessly, someone will come and take care of you!” Chen Qing firmly warned Lu Yu.
“Me? Are you kidding me? No, I’m following the rules. He doesn’t come from a suitable background to enter our elite school, so there’s no problem with my handling.”
An Heng was furious. He pointed at Chen Qing and shouted, “You said I faked my ident.i.ty to get into school, but I’ve never done that! It was Brother Qin Yang who brought me here!”
“You have no right to speak here!” Chen Qing berated.
“Lu Yu, since you want to fight me, I’ll accompany you to the end. Come on!”
At that moment, Lu Yu’s phone rang. He took it out and saw that it was a call from Tang Lina.
