From humble beginnings to the pinnacle of life

The doorbell rang almost immediately afterward.

A gentle yet hypocritical male voice came from outside the door, carrying a feigned apology.

"Qingqing, open the door. I know you're angry, let me explain."

"I also brought you your favorite tiramisu, stop fooling around."

My heart sank, and I instinctively rushed to the door, wanting to get away before the two of them met.

Su Qing was faster than me, and she pulled open the door first.

The man standing outside the door was tall and handsome, dressed in an expensive suit, with an air of gentleness that concealed arrogance.

The moment I opened the door, his gaze locked onto me.

The gentle smile on his face froze instantly, and his expression turned cold and stern.

Before I could explain, Su Qing reached out and wrapped her arms around my neck, pressing her soft body tightly against my chest.

Their intimate and blatant actions were a naked show of defiance towards Fang Heng.

The sudden intimacy made me stiffen, and I dared not move an inch.

Su Qing raised her eyes, looked directly at Fang Heng whose face had instantly turned ashen, and said loudly:

"Fang Heng, stop with your fake apology, it's unnecessary."

"If you don't cherish me, there are plenty of others who will."

"Let me introduce you, this is my new boyfriend. From now on, it's completely over between us, a clean break."

Fang Heng stared at us, who were huddled together, and let out a low, cold laugh, full of disdain:

"Qingqing, don't throw a tantrum like a child. You think I'd believe you if you just grabbed some random stranger to act out a scene to upset me?"

This is a typical scumbag mentality. He feels no remorse for betraying Su Qing and doesn't care at all, even though he knows Su Qing is angry.

These words completely ignited Su Qing's anger. She tightened her arms around my neck and pressed herself even closer.

"Acting? Do I look like I'm acting?"

"In what ways is my new boyfriend not better than you? At least he knows how to respect me, unlike you who lies and flirts with other women all the time."

Fang Heng's gaze fell coldly on me, his tone carrying a condescending warning:

"Kid, whatever benefits you're trying to get, you'd better get out of my sight right now."

I couldn't wait to leave, but Su Qing leaned close to my ear and whispered a threatening threat:

"Don't move, cooperate with my act. If you dare push me away, this is over."

Another threat!

I'm caught between two wealthy people, in a dilemma.

Before I could react, she deliberately spoke to Fang Heng in a coquettish voice, "Don't scare my boyfriend. He used to practice boxing, and he has quite a temper."

I was completely stunned.

To fabricate something out of nothing, to make things up without thinking!

Fang Heng's expression grew increasingly grim, yet he maintained his refined demeanor and patiently continued to persuade him:

"Qingqing, stop making a scene. Let's talk alone. Don't get angry at strangers and ruin yourself."

"There's nothing to talk about!"

Su Qing interrupted him sharply, "When you were flirting with other women outside, why didn't you ever think about communicating properly?"

"Alright, we need to rest now. You can go."

She gave Fang Heng no further chance to explain, and after coldly finishing her sentence, she slammed the door shut.

Fang Heng's angry warning came from outside the door immediately: "Kid, this is your last warning, don't play with fire. If you dare touch her, I'll make you disappear forever."

The moment the door closed, Su Qing's tense body relaxed instantly, and a look of triumphant satisfaction appeared on her face.

I couldn't hold back any longer. I flung her hand away, and all the anger I had been holding in exploded.

"Have you made enough of a scene?!"

"Why should I, an outsider, be dragged into your messy affairs?!"

"What did I do to deserve this? I'm exhausted from delivering food all day, my girlfriend ran off with someone else because I'm poor, and the station manager said he's going to fire me. I only have about three hundred yuan left!"

"I tried to do good deeds but got slapped, threatened, and made a fool of by you!"

After I finished yelling, my chest heaved violently.

Su Qing stared at me blankly, remaining silent for a long time.

After a long pause, she spoke softly, "...I'll make it up to you. Fifty thousand yuan, is that enough?"

I stared intently at her, the fire in my heart burning even brighter instead of being suppressed.

It's not that she thinks the money is too little, it's her attitude of casually giving money to people at the bottom of society.

It's just like Li Meng getting into an Audi and driving away, just like the station manager who always makes things difficult for me.

I've suffered so much contempt from others, and I'm not going to put up with it anymore today.

I took a step forward, stared intently into her eyes, and said, word by word:

"You've got money, huh? Let's settle the score today."

"You slapped me in public, 50,000; you insulted and belittled me, 30,000; you forcibly took me hostage and used me as a pawn, 20,000."

"A total of 100,000, not a penny less."

"If you think it's not worth it, call the police now and have someone deal with me, it's up to you."

"If I, Lin Ye, even frown, I'm your grandson."

Su Qing stared at me for several seconds, her eyes full of curiosity.

She had seen far too many sycophants and flatterers.

This was probably the first time she had met someone like me, an ordinary person who had nothing but still remained proud and dared to stand up to her to the end.

After a few seconds of silence, a smile of interest slowly crept onto her delicate face.

"You're quite an interesting person."

No sooner had he finished speaking than a loud "bang!" was heard as the villa door was kicked open.

The villa's front door was kicked open.

Fang Heng returned, followed by two tall men, each over 1.98 meters tall.

His gentle demeanor vanished completely, replaced by a sinister look.

"Su Qing, you fucking ungrateful bastard, huh? Sending a food delivery guy to disgust me?"

He pointed at me angrily, then gestured with his chin to the two bodyguards behind him:

"Drag this kid out and break his leg. I'll take responsibility if anything happens."

Su Qing's expression changed, and she quickly stepped in front of me to block me:

"Fang Heng, are you crazy? You dare touch him and see what happens!"

"You'll see if I dare."

He scoffed coldly, then said with utter disdain, "Didn't you say he's a boxer? Why does he need your protection?"

As soon as he finished speaking, two bodyguards rushed towards me.

My pupils contracted, and my whole body tensed up.

It's too late to run.

There's nowhere to hide.

All the forbearance and concessions of the day, the grievances and humiliations, were wiped away at this moment.

Over the years I've tempered my temper simply for a peaceful life, not because I lack courage or ruthlessness!

Those who go barefoot are never afraid of those who wear shoes.

I shoved Su Qing aside, grabbed the glass ashtray from the entryway, and smashed it down hard on the head of the bodyguard at the front.

"Bang!"

The man was stunned on the spot, and blood kept flowing down his forehead.

Seeing this, the second bodyguard swung his fist and punched me right in the face.

I didn't dodge; I took the punch head-on, and my lip was cut.

Taking advantage of the moment he pulled back his fist, I grabbed his arm and twisted it sharply in the opposite direction.

"what!"

He screamed in pain as I twisted him, causing him to bend over.

I thrust my knee upwards, hitting his chin.

He fell straight to the ground.

The whole process took less than ten seconds.

I was panting heavily, still clutching the blood-stained ashtray in my hand, pointing at Fang Heng.

"You weren't going to break my legs? Come on then."

"You fucking try it."

Fang Heng's face darkened, and he subconsciously took a step back.

Just as he was about to utter some harsh words, his cell phone suddenly rang in his pocket.

He took out his phone and glared at me fiercely.

I pressed the answer button and casually uttered a name that I would never forget.

"Hey, Li Meng, I'm not going home tonight... You wait for me."

hum...

My mind went completely blank for a moment.

Li Meng.

Li Meng, whom I dated for half a year, just left in an Audi this afternoon.

The woman on the other end of his phone...

Is it Li Meng?
