Chapter 257: Liu Junjie

“Tang Hao?”

“Who’s Tang Hao? I’ve never heard of him!”

The bustling mood was brought to a halt. Many people showed doubtful expressions on their faces.

They did not remember seeing that name on the list of people who had successfully gotten into Z University that year.

They had never even heard of that name.

Everyone looked at the crowd and their gaze eventually fell on Tang Hao.

They could recognize most of the people in the crowd, except for that one person. He must be the Tang Hao that the person was shouting about.

“Who’s that guy? I’ve never seen him before! Is he from First High too?”

Everyone whispered among themselves.

That voice was heard again, except that he sounded more scornful. “He’s a student from First High, alright! We were in the same class, but he was expelled.

“I think most of you should know the news! He was the one who was expelled after fighting with Tianhao!”

That person came into view as he spoke. He was none other than Liu Junjie, Zhang Tianhao’s best friend.

Liu Junjie’s face was dark and brooding as he glared at Tang Hao.

His eyes flashed with hatred.

Tang Hao had punched him before back in high school. When they met again, Tang Hao had slapped him twice and had publicly humiliated him. He could never forget that grudge.

What made him more envious and hateful was that the lowly, unworthy person in his eyes arrived together with the beauty queen.

When he saw them together the last time, he attributed it to pure coincidence since they did not appear to be very close. However, it was the second time he saw them together.

That was not a coincidence anymore!

‘How dare he?

‘Tang Hao didn’t even graduate high school. He’s also from a mountain village. I’ve heard from Tianhao that he’s a gigolo.

‘Even if he isn’t a gigolo, he’s probably only some menial laborer with his qualifications.’

His heart was burning with envy when he saw Tang Hao standing together with his goddess.

“What? So that’s him?” Some people exclaimed in surprise. They seemed to have remembered him.

Back then, news of the incident had spread widely. A lot of people in Tang Hao’s year knew about it.

“So that’s him! I heard that his family is poor and he didn’t continue his studies after that. It means that he isn’t a college student!”

“If he’s not a college student, why is he here? Furthermore, he came along with the Z University students too!”

Everyone’s expressions toward Tang Hao changed as they whispered among themselves.

Their gaze turned condescending and mocking.

Invitations to that gathering were extended to college students in Provincial City. Tang Hao should not have been invited, but he was present at the venue together with the Z University students. How shameless could he be?

They looked down upon that guy who did not graduate high school.

Many people there were Tang Hao’s classmates. “Junjie, didn’t you say that he’s a gigolo now?” They whispered.

As they did so, they cast a hateful gaze toward Tang Hao.

Liu Junjie’s gaze was sinister. “Yes, he’s a gigolo now! Don’t you know how disgusting he can be?”

Everyone exclaimed in surprise when they heard that.

“What? A gigolo? That can’t be!”

“It’s hard to say. There’s a market for young people like him!”

“That’s utterly disgusting!”

Everyone’s gaze upon Tang Hao turned into disgust.

Liu Bingyao’s face darkened. She was becoming angry.

Liu Junjie had used that to defame Tang Hao the last time they met. It was the same thing again.

The Z University students that came together with Tang Hao had awkward looks on their faces. They did not believe those claims, but they did not understand why Liu Junjie was spreading rumors about Tang Hao.

Then, they remembered that Liu Junjie and Tang Hao were classmates.

Meanwhile, Cao Fei was livid.

He pointed a finger at Liu Junjie. “Dammit, Liu kid! What are you saying? You’re the one who’s a gigolo! You’d better watch your mouth!” He cursed.

Everyone was dumbstruck when they heard that.

Even Liu Junjie was confused.

‘I’m talking about Tang Hao. What does it have to do with Cao Fei?

‘Has he lost his mind?’

However, Cao Fei was indeed a student from Z University, and he was quite popular among the schoolmates. Liu Junjie dared not offend him. “I wasn’t talking about you, Cao Fei!” He explained.

“Talking bad about Brother Hao is the same as talking bad about me!” Cao Fei said angrily.

Liu Junjie was once again confused.

‘Why is Cao Fei speaking up for Tang Hao? He’s calling him ‘Brother Hao’ too! He’s really lost his mind! Cao Fei is from a prestigious university. Why would he call that lowly trash as his brother?’

Everyone was also confused, especially Cao Fei’s ex-classmates.

“Do you know him, Cao Fei?” One of the boys whispered to him.

“Of course I know him. He’s my Brother Hao!” Cao Fei said coldly.

Everyone could only find it ridiculous.

Liu Junjie could not find a response for a long time.

He did not expect that Tang Hao had befriended Cao Fei. When it came to matching wits, Liu Junjie was no match for Cao Fei.

Knowing what was best for him, he kept his mouth shut.

Then, he thought of something and smirked. “Cao Fei, don’t forget why we’re all gathered today. We’re all college students. Does he deserve to be here? He didn’t even graduate high school.”

Everyone looked at him with expressions of approval on their faces.

“That’s right. Not any random rabble can be here tonight.” Some people agreed with him.

Cao Fei smirked and said nonchalantly, “Who says that Tang Hao isn’t a college student? Let me tell everyone here. Brother Hao is now a student at Z University. He’s in the same class as I am too!”

The hall immediately fell into silence.

Everyone had an incredulous look on their faces.

They thought that they had misheard.

‘Tang Hao is in Z University? How is that possible?

‘He didn’t even graduate high school. So how could he be a college student, and a student of a prestigious university at that?’

Liu Junjie came to his senses and laughed. “You must have lost your mind, Cao Fei! I’ve never heard of something so ridiculous!”

Everyone also burst out laughing.

They thought that Cao Fei was speaking nonsense.

Liu Bingyao stepped forward to Tang Hao’s side. “I can vouch for Tang Hao that he is indeed a student of Z University. It’s not just me. These other people here can vouch for him too.”

She then turned to look at the other people that came along.

The roaring laughter abruptly stopped.

The smile froze on the people’s faces.

Then, they sucked cold air into their mouths.

It would have been less believable if Cao Fei was the only one making the claim, but now that even Beauty Queen Liu was saying the same thing, they had no choice but to accept that it was true.

It was nonetheless incredibly ridiculous though!

They had laughed and mocked at Tang Hao earlier, but he turned out to be a Z University student, which meant that they would have to look up to him.
