Transmigrated as the fake young master, I'll beat up the scumbags and b*tches

Vol. 1 - Chapter 18 - Villains rarely have happy endings



The maid's chilly eyes fixed on SunZhe, who was lying on the ground with a startling aura emanating from her. Her actions made the surrounding students fall silent.

HuMing never expected the inconspicuous maid would turn out to be a fighting mecha! It was hard to imagine how the original had discovered and brought her back.

The teachers and director were promptly alerted to the incident. Naturally, HuMing and others were brought in for questioning.

However, this time, with Ye QiuXue's testimony, the matter was swiftly resolved. HuMing did not intend to have Han LiTian intervene again to avoid further trouble.

Everything was held accountable to SunZhe. Provocation and physical conflict with a student resulted in monetary compensation, parent meetings, and a public apology to HuMing before the entire school.

Although not overly harsh, such a penalty was sufficient to destroy a student's confidence. HuMing had no dissatisfaction with it.

However, as he was about to leave, HuMing was surprised to see someone standing before him. There, Han YunXi was standing in the doorway with a nervous expression on her face.

"Hu... brother, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, no need to worry."

Hearing how Han YunXi addressed him, she seemed to have acknowledged his identity and did seem genuinely concerned for him.

HuMing covered his cheek, looking like he had just had a tooth taken out. The maid followed quietly behind, like HuMing's shadow.

Han YunXi quickly noticed her presence, her eyes lighting up. And walked over to the maid's side and asked,

"KangXin, why are you here!?"

[KangXin, so this maid's name is KangXin?]

HuMing hadn't looked into this maid's identification much because of the trouble Han ShuYi had made that needed to be resolved.

KangXin slowly raised her head, her thick black hair falling over her cheek, and said,

"Miss, I'm here to take Young Master home."

"...Why so suddenly?"

"Because Young Master has been walking home these past few days." The maid stated. Such mentions often carried more weight than accusations.

Hu Ming appeared to have been abandoned by the entire world after his identity was revealed, seeing how he was treated now compared to before.

HuMing was also surprised by KangXin's words. He had indeed been walking home these days. The last time he tried taking the car home, the driver picked up Han ShuYi and drove off without him.

Since that day, HuMing has never taken a car home again. What was even more absurd was that no one seemed to notice this. Everyone seemed to assume he didn't want to take the car home because he was in a bad mood.

Han YunXi's expression worsened as she heard KangXin's words.

The driver was hired in recent years; the original driver had returned to his hometown to retire due to health issues. And to think that the driver, who usually appeared cheerful, turned out to be such a snob!

She was angry but also annoyed with herself. How could she not have noticed such an important matter, but instead, a servant did? No wonder HuMing didn't trust them.

"Brother, let's go home and explain this to Mom and Dad!"

"It doesn't matter. I consider walking home to be exercise." HuMing waved his hand, seemingly unconcerned.

However, this only made Han YunXi feel more uncomfortable. HuMing appears to have yet to accept his current situation.

Just as Han Yunxi fell silent, HuMing suddenly spoke up.

"By the way, where's Han ShuYi?"

"Ah...He's..."

Han YunXi was unsure how to explain the situation for a moment. She was concerned that it would hurt HuMing's pride.

Looking at her expression, HuMing felt somewhat helpless. He waved his hand, clearly not wanting to continue asking. Still, the disappointment on his face was evident to Han YunXi.

She wanted to explain but was suddenly interrupted by someone.

"HuMing, are you okay?"

Ye QiuXue exited from the principal's office and saw HuMing holding his cheek, her expression grim. HuMing, however, felt somewhat relaxed after seeing her serious demeanor.

"There is no need to worry, President. It's no big deal. Just think of it as the price I must pay for the ridiculous things I did in the past."

"What nonsense are you saying!"

Ye QiuXue appeared displeased. She disliked how HuMing spoke, which gave her the impression that he had given up on himself.

"That's right, I'm free this weekend. What you said earlier, I'll go."

Su Liu overheard these words as she walked out of the principal's office. She clenched her fists tightly, her eyes filled with unwillingness. But who cares about her thoughts?

Leaving behind these words, Ye QiuXue turned and walked away.

HuMing also ignored the crowd's eyes as he led KangXin away.

...

The setting sun cast a lingering light on the sky behind the campus, giving it an evening glow. Golden rays reflected off the windows of the residential buildings opposite the school gate, shining just beneath HuMing and KangXin.

They padded along the road, occasionally catching the attention of passers-by due to KangXin's appearance. The water on the riverbank shimmered with reflections of golden foil and the shadows they cast.

Suddenly, HuMing stopped and turned to look at the petite maid behind him.

Her body appeared frail at first glance, but within that small frame, she concealed immense strength. It was difficult to imagine what she had been doing before being picked up by the former HuMing.

"KangXin, why did you come to pick me up?"

HuMing asked the same question again. But this time, he received an entirely different response.

"Because I was afraid you might be in danger."

"Afraid I might be in danger?"

HuMing paused briefly and squinted his eyes as he realized something.

"So, you've been following me home from school all this time?!"

"Yes."

"That day when I was cornered in the alley, you were there too?!"

"Yes."

No wonder she suddenly brought food to him after school that day and knew so clearly he got in a fight.

The girl before him had an expressionless face, quietly gazing at HuMing, waiting for the next question.

HuMing couldn't help feeling moved.

To think that the original had such a devoted companion by his side.

However, HuMing had no idea what her fate would be.

Who didn't like a happy ending? Unfortunately, he was the villain, and villains rarely have happy endings.

HuMing looked towards the center of the river with his hands in his pockets. Gazing at HuMing's back, KangXin suddenly said,

"I saw Han ShuYi and LiYue together."

"Hmm."

"Aren't you angry?"

"Angry? I stopped getting riled up over these things a long time ago."

In KangXin's eyes, HuMing's figure overlapped with the image of a certain lonely figure in her mind.

The setting sun stretched his shadow across the ground, reaching the girl's feet.
