When the two came out of the bathroom, Qiu Zhenyang was having a friendly chat with a waiter. Seeing that they knew each other, he said goodbye and left.
Seeing Guan Tang clutching the corner of Ling Mu’s clothes, Qiu Zhenyang’s eyes twitched. He pointed at the pool of red on his chest and said in shock, “He committed suicide because of a scumbag?”
Ling Mu glared at him. “That’s wine.”
“Oh
”
Qiu Zhenyang smiled awkwardly, and turned to Ling Mu. “Take off your coat and put it on him, it’s too ugly.”
Ling Mu didn’t refuse, and took off his jacket silently. He was wearing a white vest inside, so when he took off his coat, his delicate collarbones and white arms were extremely dazzling in the dim light of the bar.
After putting his coat on Guan Tang, as soon as he turned around, the coat thrown over by Qiu Zhenyang hit his face.
Ling Mu pulled his jacket off speechlessly. “Why don’t you just give him yours?”
“Idiot,  my pheromones are on my clothes, is it suitable?” Qiu Zhenyang touched his head and then turned to Guan Tang. “Are those your companions at the table in the corner? Nie Chen’s right there, standing on a chair and has been drinking for a long time. And I heard from the waiter just now that they counted all the drinks on your head tonight.”
While saying this, Qiu Zhenyang also observed Guan Tang’s expression.
Seeing the angry face when he heard the last sentence, he suddenly thought to himself that this child can still be saved.
“I won’t pay for them! In the past few months since I joined the club, every time I go out to party, I have to pay. Why? If Nie Chen helped me back then, I would have paid back. But it’s clear they don’t consider me a part of them at all. I won’t give money!” This is the most stubborn thing Guan Tang’s said since they’ve met.
Now that he has expressed his attitude, Qiu Zhenyang almost knows what to do.
“Let’s go then. I’ll take you to the boss later, they’ll bear the cost themselves.” Qiu Zhenyang walked over to the bar owner. During the chat with the waiter just now, he already knew who it was.
Because this is in the Interstellar Academy, even the owner of the bar is a senior. it should be easier to communicate if they are close in age.
However, just as Qiu Zhenyang took a few steps out, he found that the people behind him did not keep up.
He turned around and glanced, Ling Mu actually took Guan Tang directly to Nie Chen’s table.
Fearing that they’d suffer a loss, Qiu Zhenyang quickly followed.
The people who drank with Nie Chen were all the students from the club. In fact, there was more than one game club in the school. Because everyone liked different types of games, Guan Tang went to only one of them.
Someone at the same table with sharp eyes immediately cheered when Guan Tang came back: “Look who’s back! I thought Guan Tang was going to cry in the toilet for a long time. It should be his first time in a bar, hahaha! Look! It looks like his heart is quite strong!”
With this shout, everyone’s attention was immediately attracted, and Nie Chen and the girls beside him also looked over.
“Finished making trouble? Apologize to everyone.” Nie Chen was still so arrogant. Even though there were other omegas standing beside him, he still regarded himself as a boyfriend.
Guan Tang pursed his lips and looked at him without speaking, his eyes red with anger.
Nie Chen was a little impatient, just as he was about to continue speaking, he noticed Ling Mu beside him, and immediately raised his eyebrows and sarcastically said, “Did you go find help? Guan Tang, you are very powerful, did we bully you or something? Just a trivial matter, why make a fuss?”
“A trivial matter? Where did you get the face to say these words?” Ling Mu said without being polite. He’s been long upset about Nie Cheng.
“What did you say?” Nie Chen’s face suddenly fell, and the expressions of the people at the table also changed. They put down the wine glasses in their hands, and all stood up and stared at Ling Mu.
A normal omega would have been terrified by this scene, at least Guan Tang was like this, but Ling Mu didn’t react to it at all.
Compared with these worried students, the real bars outside the school are much worse.
“Don’t understand what I said? Then I’ll say it directly. Since you’ve broken up, shouldn’t the money you asked Guan Tang to take out be returned to him? The club is yours, the team is yours, but who gave you the courage to use other people’s money to fill your own pit?” Ling Mu actually doesn’t like quarreling with people, he prefers to fight directly.
However, since the incident escalated and he was at a loss, he still held back.
Qiu Zhenyang stood behind them and listened silently, quietly giving Ling Mu a thumbs up.
Nie Chen laughed angrily at Ling Mu’s words. “Do you think you’re awesome? He took out the money himself, and we didn’t force him. Why, he doesn’t have enough, and is worried about money now? Weren’t you the one to shamelessly brag that you had money at the start?”
This time, before Ling Mu spoke, Guan Tang cried out first: “When did I say I’m rich? You saw the equipment in my game, and then clearly asked about my situation at home. Now I’m the shameless one?”
Guan Tang is the type of character who gets emotional to the point of tears when he quarrels. He has the courage to speak up now because Ling Mu and Qiu Zhenyang are by his side, otherwise he would’ve cowardly continued hiding in the bathroom.
Ling Mu continued his words and looked at Nie Chen sarcastically: “It seems that you were nice to him in the first place for the money? Dug up enough money and have no patience to continue, so you’re not even going to pretend?”
Nie Chen’s expression was deep and his eyes were extremely angry, but he did not refute Ling Mu.
He has indeed reached the point where he doesn’t even bother to pretend.
At this time, the girl who had been beside Nie Chen said, “I think you are mistaken. Between Nie Chen and Guan Tang, this xuedi 1junior classmate chased him first. No matter how you look at it, it should be this xuedi taking the initiative towards Nie Chen, right?”
Ling Mu eye knife slanted over immediately. “He didn’t speak, so why are you talking? Could it be that you know better than the two of them?”
The girl’s expression froze, and she gritted her teeth and said, “I am the president of the club. Of course I know these things.”
Qiu Zhenyang spoke up in a timely manner: “You are a game club, not a youth love club. You have time to gossip, why can’t you lead the club members to make more money? It looks like your unscrupulous club is about to come to an end.”
“What are you talking about!”
Although this club is unscrupulous, it has a good team spirit. When they heard Qiu Zhenyang slander the club, the rest of the members stood up.
Qiu Zhenyang hummed. “Where did I say something wrong? Guan Tang, tell me, how much did they cheat you?”
Guan Tang wiped his tears, opened the terminal, and called up the details of the bank card expenses sent to Nie Chen this morning.
“167,380.”
When this number was reported, not to mention everyone else, even Guan Tang himself was surprised.
He hadn’t counted it before, but looking at it now, this amount is beyond his imagination. He almost used up several years worth of pocket money!
Qiu Zhenyang applauded. “Amazing, I know about the school clubs, but I’ve never heard of any clubs asking for so much. Did you use the money to gamble?”
“Don’t lie! He has no evidence, why should we believe that he has put out so much money!”
“That’s right, at most, it’s only ten thousand or twenty thousand. Where’d your number come from?”
“Besides, it is all his own money. What do you want from us?”
Once people don’t want to take responsibility, they will become rogues, and say whatever they want. As long as they can escape responsibility and don’t bear the consequences, they will deny it to the end.
Guan Tang was so angry that his liver hurt. In the past, as long as Nie Chen or a member of the club asked him for money, he would quickly give it. As a result, they didn’t appreciate it, and even questioned him! He was simply blind to think that Nie Chen was a good man, and that the members of the club were worthy of being friends!
“Here is the transfer record of every amount I’ve sent to Nie Chen’s account. If you think I’m lying, you can use it as proof. Anyway, there are teachers in charge of the club, and I’ll go ask the teacher directly.” At this moment, Guan Tang no longer sobbed, but raised his voice to protect his own interests.
Qiu Zhenyang and Ling Mu have worked so hard for him, and he can’t be so useless!
Guan Tang’s attitude towards Nie Chen has always been very attentive, so everyone had the impression that he will not do things that are harmful to Nie Chen, and will try his best to please them for Nie Chen’s sake, which is why they acted so fearlessly.
Now at the mention of a teacher, some were immediately scared.
Although it won’t be to the point of being expelled from school, the money they’ve swallowed should be returned, and they’ll likely be punished.
But the president obviously didn’t think so. “What’s the use? Even if it proves to be true, it’s just what’s given during their relationship. Wasn’t everything done willingly? You didn’t ask him to return it to you before breaking up, so what are you talking about now?”
This person was really annoying, and Qiu Zhenyang couldn’t help opening his mouth: “Are you kidding? Would he have returned the money if they hadn’t broken up? Right now, it’s only because everyone’s stopped pretending because they’ve broken up, otherwise, would Guan Tang have asked?”
On the other hand, Guan Tang took the tissue that Ling Mu had given him before and kept wiping away his tears. His eyes are already swollen.
Ling Mu has never comforted him, because these things have to be seen clearly by Guan Tang, so that he will not make mistakes again in the future. His love was too humble, chasing after Nie Chen just because of the little bit of kindness he showed.
Although Guan Tang looks very lively and cheerful, he should be a child who lacks love.
“Do you think you can threaten us by bringing up the teacher? Qiu Zhenyang, I know you guys from a privileged family won’t be afraid of civilian students like us. But that’s all you can do, right? Rely on your family to unscrupulously oppress others. Aren’t you afraid your name will be exposed to the media, and you’ll be reviled by thousands?”
The president still had the leisure to put hats on others, so it’s no wonder she can be the president of this unscrupulous club.
Qiu Zhenyang sneered. “I don’t know what your name is, but I think the name ‘bitch’ is very suitable for you. Although I’d rather not compete with you, I don’t like others slandering my family. How about this, let’s use games – which you guys are good at – to determine the winner? In “Machine Wars”, the time and date, and the victory conditions will be determined by you. We won’t pursue it if you win, but if you lose, you will pay back the money.”
Although Qiu Zhenyang’s first sentence made the president’s nose crooked and her mouth slanted, later he said that if he won, he would not pursue it, which still made her a little moved.
But Nie Chen was still unhappy: “What’s so fun about your broken game? The technical operation is so bad, we can win with our eyes closed! And you made this game, who knows if you will cheat?”
“Since you If you think the game sucks, it means you are confident that you can win? In this way, we will ask the teacher in charge of the club to be the referee for us. If I cheat, I will be punished, do you dare to come?” Qiu Zhenyang looked at him with a smile. Even about to die, Nie Chen was still so stubborn.
Hearing this, everyone in the group was moved. They gathered around to discuss in a low voice, and finally made a decision.
“Okay, let’s compete!”
Damn scum club.
