"Come with me for a walk." Xena naturally refused to let him be. Crying and beating were her specialty, but she usually only used this trick on her father.
Xena's eyes were full of tears and she pulled Irving's arm with a resentful look and shook it hard.
The students around him were dumbfounded. They didn't know what kind of game Irving was playing, and they didn't expect to see him not even paying attention to such a wealthy girl. Naturally, there was also a pair of eyes, staring at him with hatred.
Irving was shaken so hard that he couldn't reprimand Xena in front of many classmates. After all, he didn't want to reveal his differences yet.
Xena, with an obvious smile of success on his face, grabbed Irving's hand and ran around the small campus, as if to let everyone know who the ownership of this man belonged to.
"Bitch..." Nancy, who saw this scene from the teaching building, cursed fiercely. For Irving, it was a completely unreasonable disaster. Nancy's emotion towards him was of utter indifference. But Xena, who had just arrived at school, was different. Xena was not only beautiful, but his family was also very rich and powerful. Completely transcending their status in school.
Women were very jealous, and a cold look flashed in Nancy's eyes.
Ding!!!
The school bell rang.
Irving casually stuffed his books into the drawer, stood up and left. After returning to campus, he was no longer an object of bullying. Not to mention the ruthless image he left on people's minds, even with a woman like Xena protecting him, there was no one to bully him. No one even dare to blatantly touch his hair again.
Xena seemed to know that Irving would not wait for her to go home with him, so she stood guard at the school gate early.
"Have you been waiting for a long time?" Irving kept walking and glanced at Xena who was keeping up.
"No." Xena buried her head and replied softly, holding her schoolbag with both hands, thinking that skipping class for fifteen minutes was not too long.
Irving really couldn't figure out what was going on in Xena's mind. She wanted to walk with him instead of riding in a luxury car. She didn't want to live in her family mansion but wanted to squeeze into a small house with him. As for the bodyguard, humming, of course it would be safer to stay with him.
However, it seemed nice to have someone with him.
The two of them were silent all the way.
Since Xena had paid sufficient rent and declared that it included nutritional fees, electricity and water bills, and protection fees, she particularly emphasized that she was going to the supermarket to buy food and could no longer abuse her stomach.
Originally, she had thought about going to an eatery alone outside, but didn't the book say that as long as you never leave a man, he would never leave you. Naturally, Irving didn't know Xena's little idea of replacing her bodyguard with him.
Irving led his now rich friend through the streets and alleys, looking at a large chain supermarket not far away. He smiled bitterly and shook his head. You must know that according to his usual habits, the vegetable market was the place for him to buy food, but Xena has already convinced him that when they go there after school, all the good dishes would haven been picked already.
"Our home is really far from here. How about I ask my dad to buy a house nearby and you can move in with me? I'll still pay you the rent, water and electricity, but you can only come here alone." The two of them stood. In the alley, Xena looked at the supermarket just across the way and gasped.
Irving didn't want to think about problems that he couldn't figure out or explain. After all, women's minds were at the bottom of their minds, and he had two women to deal with.
Suddenly, Irving raised his hand to stop Xena, who was immersed in moving forward, and said with a wry smile: "Look, I knew you would bring me trouble."
At this time, the alley entrance was blocked by several delinquent youths who were standing at the end of the alley where Irving and Xena came in, smoking and spanking, also blocked the escape route. The group of people slowly pressed in towards the two of them.
"What's going on here?" Irving raised the corners of his mouth slightly, staring at Lincoln behind the group of men, but said softly: "Are you here to cause trouble?"
Xena tilted his head and finally figured out the situation, and said happily: "Don't worry, I'll take care of it."
In Xena's eyes, these little gangsters were not worth mentioning at all. Even if they look ferocious in appearance, they were still young thugs, children of their parents. Compared to those adults who were trying to kidnap her and cause her troubles, these ones looked like children.
Xena took a step forward proudly, raised her chin slightly and stared at the leader, a man with a scar on his face, and said disdainfully. "Do you know who I am? You dare to block our way to buy groceries, don't you want to live anymore? While I'm still in a good mood, you better get out of here right now.”
The gangsters were obviously taken aback. The leader of the scarred man turned his head and looked at Lincoln behind him, wondering: "Lincoln, is this the rich girl you are talking about? Is there anything wrong with your brain?"
Lincoln smiled proudly, took a few steps forward, leaned close to the Scar man's ear, and whispered something softly. Just by the lewd looks that he and Scar gave to Xena from time to time, she knew for sure they had nothing nice to say.
After Lincoln finished speaking, he took a step forward arrogantly, raised his finger and pointed at Irving and said: "I'll give you a chance to challenge him one on one. If you win, you can leave. If you lose, we can keep Xena and let my buddy play with her for two days. How about it? This is your only chance."
It seems that he still couldn't let go of being kicked in the abdomen by Irving. And as far as he thought, last time he was totally hit by a sneak attack, otherwise ten of Irving wouldn't be his opponent. Of course, the most important thing was that Xena seems to be very tough in the background. It was better to find an excuse than to make trouble over nothing.
When Xena heard this, she looked very moved with a smile on her lips. Was this ragtag group of people in front of her also Irving's opponent?
Just when Xena was about to nod in agreement, Irving shook his head and said calmly: "She is not a commodity and cannot be used as a wager."
"Uh?" Xena turned to look at Irving, with little stars shining in her eyes, and her heart suddenly throbbed inexplicably.
"Then show me what you got." Lincoln looked angry and rushed towards Irving. He raised his fist and swung, not forgetting to curse. "Asshole.""
With Lincoln's strong body of 1.83 meters, the fist he swung with all his strength was naturally astonishing. Although in the eyes of professionals, this punch would be somewhat inadequate if it did not hit the vital point and put some effort into defense, but one should not forget now, Lincoln's opponent was just a high school student who gave off a cowardly feeling.When Lincoln started to take steps, Irving pulled Xena back, who looked worried about the world being unstable, and naturally stood in front of her.In Irving's mind, a fight must mean beating the enemy a thousand percent but at the same time damaging oneself eight hundred percent. After all, when the enemy was in a hurry and throws random punches, he could always hit himself a few times. He also resisted Lincoln's punch, and then Counterattack and knock down the opponent with one move to intimidate the gangsters surrounding you.But…"So slow!" Irving looked at Lincoln, who was moving in slow motion as if he was joking
Without enough time to feel the soft touches on his back, Irving took a step forward, planning not to hold back and quickly deal with these gangsters.At this moment, the pensive scarred man came back to his senses and shouted angrily. "Stay away, did I ask you to do it for me?"Irving took back the foot he planned to take and steadied his body, with a puzzled look on his face, not knowing what the scarred man was up to.Xena hid behind Irving, secretly cursing Scar in his heart that he was not a man, for he would shrug at such a time.Irving naturally would not take the initiative to attack. He watched the gangsters carry Lincoln away who had fainted and did not say anything to stop him.The scarred man glanced at Lincoln, tilted his head and ordered a younger brother to send him to the hospital. Then, he looked at Irving with a smile on his face and said: "My friend, this is a misunderstanding. How about clearing it up? I will be at the Encounter Hotel tonight, setting the table for
Scar's real name was Shayne. He dropped out of junior high school and was a gangster who did all kinds of evil in society. Probably because he had been in the middle of things in the community for a long time, Scar had seen a lot more of the world than the average person.The more people travel, the more knowledgeable they would be. The more knowledgeable people would be, the more knowledgeable you would be. Just by looking at the hotel where he chose to meet, you could tell that this person had strong logical ability.The Encinitas Hotel was a hotel with food and accommodation in Hudson City. The theme of the hotel was a couples restaurant. In Scar's eyes, men conquered the world and women conquered men. Although he was not yet sure about the main relationship between Irving and Xena, this did not prevent him from trying to please Xena. If a woman pursued a man, it was better to just follow it up.The hotel was not too far from the alley, and soon, Scar and the others arrived at the
Nancy understood and knew the gap between herself and Xena. She originally thought that she would never be able to compare to her, but she didn't expect that Xena would blindly fall in love with a loser like Irving. And recently, under her hard-to-get attitude, she caught the new man behind her. Now, she believed they could really compare.Xena, a ghost-like figure, still didn't understand what Nancy meant, so she sneered and asked. "Do we know each other?""Pfft." Nancy didn't expect Xena to answer like this. How come the rich lady didn't even understand the most basic manners? She was a little embarrassed when she saw the situation. She turned her head, looked at the man with good driving skills affectionately, and said in a cooing voice. "Darling, what are we going to eat today?" Her pretentious expression made everyone around her feel goosebumps.But at this time, Nancy was not the focus of the new guy at all. He ignored Nancy's question, strode forward, stretched out his hand, sm
After the little farce at the entrance of the hotel where they met, everyone's perception of Xena changed again. As a sophisticated person, Scar naturally saw that Xena was not joking. After all, in such a situation, you only need to say something casually to make such a joke. There was no need to make that call in front of everyone. While silently mourning for Walter in his heart, he also felt deep awe for this rich young lady who pretended to be crazy and had been acting foolishly.While he was in awe of Xena, he was even more grateful that he did not really have a conflict with Irving. Would a man who could make such a woman follow him around be a simple guy?After a series of delays, it was already around seven o'clock. Maybe it was because summer was approaching, but the sky was still bright at this time. There was no sign that night was coming anytime soon. Instead, there were people standing on the street shouting and talking from time to time. There were several night market s
After a while, Xena took out a tissue from her schoolbag and wiped Irving's stained lips in a caring manner.Drinking liquor for two hours was not a big deal given Irving's inheritor background, but after drinking a pound of industrial alcohol for two hours, he was drunk. Irving had not become a saint physically. If he drank too much alcohol, it wouldn't do any harm to his body, but he would get drunk."Mom, don't leave me." Just as Xena was wiping Irving's mouth, Irving suddenly raised his hand and held Xena's hand tightly."Ouch." Xena gasped in pain and glanced up in anger. She saw the boy standing next to her whose red eyes were hazy, with tears and alcohol mixed together. He looked really pitiful. Or perhaps they were in sympathy with each other. Xena, who should have withdrawn, endured the heart-piercing pain in her hand and let Irving squeeze it.Fortunately, Irving was just doing it unconsciously, and it came and went quickly. Otherwise, with the strange power that he could exe
What was happening in the world naturally had no influence on Irving, who was still hanging around in high school. Practicing his newly acquired system and going to school every day was all his daily activities.Time flew by, and judging by the fact that people on the street had begun to put on short-sleeved shirts and shorts, it meant summer had arrived.For students in their school days, the most important festival in summer was naturally summer vacation. Everywhere on the school campus, the students were discussing their next moves and destinations."Tomorrow is the day off. Let's go on a trip together, right?""No, my dad seems to have signed up for a European tour group for me. I'm afraid I don't have the time.""How about having a celebration somewhere tonight?"***Naturally, no one paid attention to Irving, who was originally a coward, but became a strong man because of Caden and the Supreme fetus.Looking at the students around him who were constantly discussing summer vacati
After a simple birthday celebration, Xena used a towel to wipe off the cream on Irving's face, and then looked like he was going to pack up the leftovers and go to the kitchen to wash the dishes.Irving looked at Xena who was very busy, thought for a while and said. "Don't worry, I'll take care of it later.""It’s fine." Xena shook his head and said, "Everything must be done from beginning to end. I cook, so naturally I have to wash the plates. Please, don't argue with me about it."After a while, Xena came out of the kitchen and stared at the butter that accidentally spilled on the floor while playing. She looked at Irving who was sitting on the sofa thinking about something with a slumped face and said. "I didn't expect that doing housework would be so tiring. I'll ask someone to come over and clean up the floor tomorrow. I'm already exhausted." After saying that, she sat down beside Irving."What are you thinking about?" Seeing that Irving didn't answer, Xena turned around and rea
Soon, the food came up.Seeing Shayne wolfing down the food, Irving sighed and said. "Didn't Scar leave some money for you? Why do you look like you've been hungry for several days?"Hearing Irving's question, Shayne's eyes instantly turned red, and he said with murderous intent: "Scar left me 20,000 dollar, part of which was for my mother's medical treatment. My mother's eyesight is not very good, and Scar was afraid that when he left, I would find no way out for the time being. So he gave me some money so that I could use to take care of my mother and open a small shop to maintain my life. But after he left, the group of local big brothers turned their focus on me, and sent people to block my path every other day. If the money for my mother's treatment had not been given to the hospital, I am afraid it would have been taken by them."Irving motioned Shayne to continue eating, then he glanced at Xena who was thinking with her chin in her hand and said. "E
Irving still remembered the young man who stopped him. Although he was a little different from Shayne, who was fearless and had the word "bad guy" carved on his head, his facial features had not changed much. But what happened to him that gave him the scar that looked like a knife injury across his nose?"Shayne?" Irving asked knowingly."Hey." Shayne responded respectfully, then looked around with a vigilant look on his face and said, "Irving, thank goodness I found. I think Scar is in trouble. I can't find him. This is not like him."This kind of thing was not a thunderbolt for Irving. After all, he was not familiar with Scar, and Scar's job was to fight on the streets as a thug, which was inherently risky. Who knew when he would run into a someone above him who would want to kill him? But since Shayne said that he had been looking for him for a long time, this matter should not be that simple.Irving held Xena's little hand, raised his chin slightly, and motioned Shayne to continue
After Thomas sat down, Nancy saw that there were three people on this side and only Thomas on the other side, so she stood up meaningfully and sat down next to him, while Xena and Irving buried their heads and ate voraciously, since it didn't cost any money anyway.After lunch, Irving began to admire the man named Thomas. Not only was he thick-skinned, but his vision and eloquence were beyond the reach of ordinary people.During this period, Nancy's subtle flirting made Irving associate Thomas with the Mr. Howard mentioned by the gossiping girls in the class that morning.In the afternoon, facing Ramona who looked like he was ready to eat anyone, Irving frankly explained that he fainted due to exhaustion because he was busy moving too many things. During this time, he was met by the enthusiastic classmate Xena, who sent him to the hospital.Ramona had already studied Irving's information during her free time at noon. She certainly did not believe the test
The school cafeteria had made a lot of money on the first day of school. Just looking at the huge crowds of people, one could tell that the food in the school today should not be bad. After all, no one was stupid to waste money on bad food. If one was stupid enough to buy some unpalatable food, health would suffer from it.Especially on a first day of school like this, after all, the cafeteria is open for the first day of the semester, so there is no way there will be leftovers. Students also knew this, so not many people go to the school gate to open a hot-dog stands.Xena dragged Irving along as they rushed along with a burning heart. The classmates who were bumped into on the road smiled kindly and said nothing after seeing that it was Xena.When he came to the entrance of the cafeteria, Irving looked at the densely packed heads, swallowed his saliva and said. "With this number of students, even if you queue up to buy food, there is no place to sit. How about I treat you to outside
Seeing that her appearance instantly attracted everyone, the woman nodded with satisfaction, and then said calmly. "Hello, students. I am your homeroom teacher this semester. Today is the first day we met, so it is proper to introduce ourselves. I also hope that we can get along well."The woman said something nice and introduced herself: "My name is Esther Robinson, but you can call me Miss Robinson. I am your homeroom teacher this semester, and I teach English Literature." After that, she smiled and pointed to a girl in the first row near the door and said: "Well, classmate, you should start by introducing yourself. Speak loudly so that I can get to know you better and to also increase your own confidence."Looking at Miss Robinson on the stage, who was pulling the strings with the students with applause, and the students below the stage who had no ambition at all and were shouting out their names, Irving smiled helplessly. It was his turn."Irving Smiths!" Irving stood up quickly.
Xena's reluctant farewell to Irving was naturally seen by many people. This was very disappointing to those who thought that Xena should be tired of Irving after one summer vacation and should have abandoned him, and they once again secretly sighed that Xena really had a good taste.Because the new semester had just started, Irving came to his original classroom. At this time, the doorplate outside the classroom had changed from grade 12 to grade 13, and the students who arrived early in the classroom seemed to have not really felt the learning atmosphere that grade 12 should have.After all, it's just the beginning of a new session. After all, they haven't seen each other for so long, so they always have to get familiar with each other again and brag to each other about the ups and downs of the past two months."You know what, when my dad and I were playing in Tokyo, Japan, the ground was shaking so much. If I hadn't been quick-witted, I might have been buried..." A boy with glasses
"What you lack is time. After all, she is also a successor, and she has obviously practiced for more time than you." Caden thought for a moment and said carefully, "But don't think that the successor is a symbol of invincibility, because all inheritances are passed down from others, so even if you practice to perfection, you would have only reached a level that others have already reached. Besides, those people might not be really as great as they thought, after all, they were all dead...""Don't talk about such things now. Why do you like talking about death so much? Anyway, please tell me, if Samantha and I really have a death fight, what are the chances of me winning?" Irving interrupted Caden. He didn't have time to care about the affairs of the predecessors, or about them dying. After all, Samantha had said that she would assassinate him anytime and anywhere."The vertical eye is something that ordinary inheritors cannot use. Although it is just a replica, it is also extremely po
In the early morning of the next day, Irving raised his hand to turn off the alarm as soon as it rang as usual, then he sat up with a somersault and practiced in silence.Just after two hours, Irving, who had been sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, slowly opened his eyes. He did not go out to exercise as usual. Following the ventilation machine, he leaned back slightly, leaned against the wall, and directly called back Caden, who was pulled away by Xena to sleep with him:"There are some things I think I need to understand clearly."Caden raised her hand and yawned, holding back her complaints about Xena's poor sleeping posture. She pursed her lips, pulled out a toothpick from behind her, put it in her mouth and said unscrupulously, "Ask.""Am I strong enough for now?" Irving said in a serious tone.Caden blinked, and for a moment she seemed unable to acknowledge it. Then she became angry, raised her finger and pointed at Irving. "You disturbed me so early just to make me appr
In Caden's eyes, a beauty should not have to do housework. How could a beauty like her do the heavy work of cleaning the room? What if her hands get calluses and her skin becomes rough even if she was just a spirit guide?After Caden went in to appease Xena, Irving began to make plans.At the same time, Xena did not roll around on the floor with the door closed as Irving imagined. She sat quietly on the bed, talking to someone on the phone with a serious expression. "Well, the information is what I gave you. If you can't find out, you can stop doing this business... What does a long time mean? You have a very good reputation in the industry... Okay, I believe you, you have to find out for me no matter how long it takes. You don't have to worry about the money... Well, I'll wait for your feedback.""Hmm..mmm""How did you get in?" Xena hung up the phone and looked at Caden who came in directly through the door, clearing her throat."You two are in a
