Chapter 204 Qiu Rongrong Gets Beaten

Edinburgh Foreign Schools

"Rongrong, we're going to karaoke tonight, are you coming?"

"Going to karaoke again? It's no fun at all. How about we go see a movie tonight? It's a new release."

Girls tend to talk about the same few things: boys, gossip, and travel.

Qiu Rongrong comes from a wealthy family and has a bit of a spoiled princess attitude, but she's very approachable and incredibly loyal to her girlfriends.

She always paid for all the trips they took out. Many people at school knew that her father was Qiu Degen, and even the teachers at the school would try to curry favor with her. She was incredibly popular.

Whether at home or outside, she's a little tyrant—after all, she's Qiu Degen's only daughter.

Qiu Rongrong is only seventeen years old and is in her second year of high school. Qiu Degen was over thirty when he had his daughter, and he dotes on her immensely.

About six months ago, Kwok Ping-sheung, a member of the Kwok family, a wealthy business family in Hong Kong Island, was kidnapped. It is said that the kidnappers demanded a ransom of HK$800 million from the Kwok family before Kwok Ping-sheung was allowed to return home safely.

From then on, Qiu Degen became increasingly worried, fearing that his family members would also be targeted by those gangsters, and hired professional bodyguards for his family.

He specifically hired the renowned Taiwanese security firm, SmartLink Security, to protect the safety of his family. His wife rarely goes out, and when she does, she is accompanied by bodyguards, as is his eldest son.

The only problem is the youngest daughter, because she is still in school and has to go out every day. The bodyguard cannot be by her side 24 hours a day, so it is particularly troublesome.

At school, Qiu Rongrong was looked at strangely for a while because she was followed by bodyguards. After that, she strongly opposed the arrangement of these bodyguards and even demanded that they be removed on the grounds that she would not go to school.

Qiu Degen had no choice but to find someone else to protect his daughter.

Later, he thought of Li Jiayuan. Li Jiayuan, who came from a special background, probably had the most contact with people from all walks of life.

Perhaps there was a solution, so Qiu Degen approached Li Jiayuan, which led to Gao Jin becoming a bodyguard.

Gao Jin felt nothing but helplessness and heartache. Although he and Qiu Rongrong were the same age, they came from two different worlds and were destined to be unable to understand each other. Qiu Rongrong also disliked him very much.

If it weren't for the mission, Gao Jin really wouldn't have been able to stay here any longer.

Normally, Gao Jin would follow Qiu Rongrong around as her cousin, but Qiu Rongrong wouldn't let him get close, so as not to annoy her. Gao Jin felt the same way; rather than being a foolish follower, he might as well secretly stalk her.

Just maintain a safe distance of within ten meters.

"Rongrong, your cousin is following us again. He's so clingy."

Qiu Rongrong turned around unhappily, pouting.

"Ignore him. If he weren't a relative of ours, I wouldn't even bother with him."

In Qiu Rongrong's eyes, Gao Jin was a fool, and she didn't understand why her father would let such a person protect her.

I remember the first day we met, he asked Gao Jin to buy him some water, but the guy refused and his attitude was really infuriating.

Qiu Rongrong was unaware that Gao Jin's mission was to protect her personal safety. How could he protect her if she was away from him? Apart from the women's restroom, everything Qiu Rongrong did every day was under his surveillance.

Qiu Rongrong went to a KTV in Mong Kok with her girlfriends. Although Qiu Rongrong comes from a wealthy family, her social circle is quite simple. Her friends are all ordinary classmates from school.

He usually only goes out with girls, so this time when he went to the karaoke bar, Qiu Rongrong was with only three girls.

In those days, there was no concept of commercial karaoke or chain karaoke; all karaoke bars were the same, and you could hire girls to accompany you for drinks.

However, Qiu Rongrong and her group were girls, so of course they wouldn't order anything. There were booths and a bar outside the karaoke bar, and the private rooms were located upstairs.

After booking the private room, Qiu Rongrong and her friends ordered a lot of food. With Qiu Rongrong, a wealthy woman, around, everyone spent money without any scruples, and then started having a blast in the karaoke bar.

As for Gao Jin, he just stood guard at the door and didn't go in to play with them. He wasn't interested, and he never sang.

After standing there for about half an hour, one of his underlings suddenly came over and spoke to Gao Jin.

"Brother Jin, there's trouble upstairs, look." That's right, coincidentally, this place belongs to Li Jiayuan, no, to be precise, this KTV belongs to Li Jiayuan, so everyone here is an employee of Jiayuan Property Management.

As the youngest member of the senior management circle, Gao Jin was also quite well-known in the industry, so the people at Jiayuan Property Management naturally knew him.

“The girls inside are all Brother Yuan’s guests. Have someone keep an eye on things here and let me know immediately if anything happens.”

Even when he was dealing with a dispute, Gao Jin didn't forget Qiu Rongrong and left only after giving her instructions.

No sooner had he left than Qiu Rongrong came out with two of her girlfriends.

They went downstairs to get some food.

Things aren't as advanced as they are in later years, where you can just tap your phone and someone will bring your food up. Now you have to go downstairs to the bar to get your food yourself.

The three girls took some salad, small cakes, and low-alcohol fruit wine and walked upstairs with smiles on their faces.

As Qiu Rongrong walked down the aisle, a foot suddenly peeked out from under the table. She lost her balance, and the plate she was carrying spilled all over the floor, with the drink on it falling directly onto the person next to her.

"Are you looking for death? You spilled all your wine on my older brother."

Before Qiu Rongrong could even stand up straight, a shady-looking man in a leather jacket stood up and approached the three of them.

Qiu Rongrong was stunned for a moment. The colorful lights in the KTV flickered on her face. After she came to her senses, she glared angrily at the thugs in front of her.

"I saw you trip me."

Qiu Rongrong wasn't afraid at all. He looked at the people at the table, each with various patterns tattooed on their necks and shoulders. In this era, people like that were undoubtedly gangsters.

Qiu Rongrong wasn't afraid of these people, but her two classmates were a little intimidated. After all, they were just young girls who had never seen anything like this before.

"Rongrong, forget it, let's go."

Qiu Rongrong glared at the bald man sprawled out on the table, clearly annoyed, and prepared to leave.

At this moment, the short, fat man who had spoken earlier blocked her way again.

"Hey, wait a minute, don't rush off. You got my brother's clothes wet. Come over and have a few drinks with our Brother Turtle as an apology."

The short, fat man, while speaking, started to physically attack Qiu Rongrong, pulling her towards their table.

What are you doing?

Chili Qiu Rongrong shook off the short, fat man's hand and angrily pushed him away. Immediately, the gangsters at the table started jeering like monkeys.

Qiu Rongrong's two classmates were terrified and stood there speechless.

"Hey girl, I'm giving you a drink because I'm being nice to you. If you don't finish this bottle today, you're not leaving."

At this moment, the bald man sitting in the middle slammed down a bottle of brandy, then stood up and reached out to touch Qiu Rongrong's face. When had Qiu Rongrong, who came from a wealthy family, ever been treated like this?

A slap landed squarely on Ah Gui's bald head, the sound of the slap was incredibly loud.

"Do you know who my dad is? Don't think I'm afraid of you. Try touching me and see what happens."

Everyone was stunned. Even Agui didn't expect to be slapped. Enraged, he immediately retaliated with a powerful slap of his own.

"You bitch, you dare hit me, fuck you!"

The moment the slap landed, Qiu Rongrong's eyes instantly reddened, and her two companions were terrified.

Not giving up, Ah Gui kicked Qiu Rongrong again, knocking her to the ground. Clearly drunk, Ah Gui still wanted to continue his attack.
