Communication Mobile City has now entered a stable phase. Even without Chen Haoxuan, it can operate normally; there shouldn't be too many changes in advance, or else it will become chaotic.
Chen Haoxuan gradually returned power to Zhang Tianqi, handing over his work to others. On a day in March, September Eighth, Chen Haoxuan returned to New City University. It would have been better if he hadn't gone back; as soon as he did, he was surrounded by a group of foreign individuals he didn't recognize, who claimed they wanted to be friends with him and introduced themselves, seemingly trying to convey that befriending them would benefit Chen Haoxuan.
Shen Ruyan saw Chen Haoxuan returning to New City University from a small shop. Unlike those people, she did not try to curry favor with him. The reason was simple: she was not an ordinary person; she was the belle of the military academy, and even the instructors dared not challenge her skills. Her background was impressive—both her father and grandfather held high-ranking positions in the military. Moreover, she was not just a student at the military academy; she was also a member of the Dragon Group.
She had been assigned to New City University by her team leader with the mission of getting close to Chen Haoxuan, uncovering his secrets while ensuring his safety. She had her own ways of attracting Chen Haoxuan's attention and believed that with her looks, if he saw her even once, he would find a way to approach her. Therefore, she felt no need to flatter him.
"According to Chen Haoxuan's information, he usually goes to the cafeteria for meals when he's at school, so I'll wait for him there," Shen Ruyan thought to herself.
Sure enough, Chen Haoxuan escaped the crowd to find Yang Lin and the others. By noon, he took them all to the cafeteria. Unfortunately for them, when they arrived, there were no seats left. Despite this setback, Chen Haoxuan and his friends still went to get their meals because they planned to eat on the lawn outside.
Chen Yina and her group were ahead of them; after getting their meals, they headed outside. Just as Chen Haoxuan finished getting his food and was about to carry his tray out, someone called out to him.
"Chen Haoxuan, there's a spot here," said Shen Ruyan. She had intended for him to come over on his own but was taken aback when he didn't even glance at her and walked right past. She felt frustrated! How could someone considered a talented woman be ignored like that? Nevertheless, she needed to complete her mission, so she called out again.
Chen Haoxuan stopped and turned to look at the girl who had called him. She was beautiful—comparable to Chen Yina, but with more personality. "Chen Haoxuan smiled and said, 'Thank you, but I don't need it; my friends are outside! I'm going to find them now. Bye...'” After saying this, he turned and left. Having seen many beautiful women before, he wasn't captivated by Shen Ruyan's looks.
Seeing that Chen Haoxuan was unappreciative, Shen Ruyan huffed angrily, "Hmph! What’s so great about being just a businessman?"
At the table where Shen Ruyan sat, she wasn't alone; there were several others who had transferred schools just to pursue her. These individuals were all wealthy young men—some were second-generation rich kids, others were second-generation officials, and some were from the Second Generation of the Underworld. Together, their influence was considerable enough that even Shen Ruyan wouldn't dare provoke them.
The wealthy second-generation man, Wang Fuyou, spoke up: "Ruyan, do you want me to help? I can have my dad's company collaborate with my grandpa's company to acquire Chen Haoxuan's business. Let's see how long he can act so arrogantly then."
Shen Ruyan shot a displeased glance at Wang Fuyou and said, "What else can you do besides wasting money? You may know about Chen Haoxuan's business, but do you know how many people support him behind the scenes? Have you forgotten about the investment event he held six months ago? Many businessmen from around the world invested in his company. Do you really think you have the strength to acquire his business?"
Ye Hongfei, the second-generation underworld figure, arrogantly replied to Wang Fuyou, "Money means nothing to me. Even if you have a lot of money, if I send a hitman to your house, can your money protect you?"
"Come on, just because you're involved in this doesn't make you impressive! Haven't you heard of assassin organizations? Can your gang's hitmen compare to them? I have plenty of money; if you provoke me, I can easily spend it to eliminate your Qingye Gang," Wang Fuyou retorted angrily.
"Then come and try! Let's see who is tougher!" Ye Hongfei shouted as he stood up abruptly, cursing at Wang Fuyou.
Gong Sun Xuan, the official second-generation, looked like a refined scholar. He wore glasses and always carried a book with him. If you thought he was just a weak scholar, you'd be gravely mistaken; he was cunning! He loved using schemes to outsmart others. At this moment, Gong Sun Xuan spoke up: "Everyone should value harmony! If there are issues, let's discuss them calmly instead of fighting to the death! If you really want to vent your anger for Ruyan, why not frame Chen Haoxuan?"
"Strategist, how do we best frame Chen Haoxuan?" Wang Fuyou asked excitedly, referring to Gong Sun Xuan by his nickname.
"We can steal one of Chen Haoxuan's personal items and then have someone skilled wait by the women's restroom to take pictures on purpose. When they run away, they can drop Chen Haoxuan's item on the ground. If any girls see it, they will naturally go after Chen Haoxuan without us saying a word. At that point, this Campus Heartthrob will be labeled a peeping Tom, and our goal will be achieved," Gong Sun Xuan said with a lewd smile.
"Brilliant! As expected of the strategist! We'll do it your way. But how can we get Chen Haoxuan's personal item?" Wang Fuyou praised Gong Sun Xuan and then asked.
Gong Sun Xuan appeared confident and replied casually, "That's easy. Chen Haoxuan is so famous at New City University, and you're wealthy enough—money can make things happen! Just find a few girls to pretend to be fans of Chen Haoxuan and ask him for one of his personal items."
"Let's do it!" Wang Fuyou exclaimed happily.
"This is your business; it has nothing to do with me," Shen Ruyan said lightly. She also wanted to get back at Chen Haoxuan for ignoring her beauty.
What was Chen Haoxuan's situation now? He was being unfairly targeted even while lying low. He had four girlfriends at the moment, one of whom was on par with Shen Ruyan in looks. Moreover, having been with countless beauties at Future Century, it was perfectly normal for him not to be moved by Shen Ruyan!
Women can sometimes be terrifying; even if you haven't wronged them, they may still harbor hatred towards you. Their admirers become tools for their revenge. If anyone displeases them, their admirers will go to great lengths to appease them and seek vengeance on their behalf, just like Wang Fuyou and others.
