Chapter 649 Public Ire
Jing Ni was truly shocked. Qu Hao was too busy comforting her that he didn’t even look at Lee Yang. He had been kicked far away and was struggling to get up with the help of the crowd.
Even the experienced and shrewd Tong Hui did not expect Qu Hao to make a move like that, especially when he knew Lee Yang’s identity. “You…” He pointed at Qu Hao, not knowing what to say.
Qu Hao smiled at him and the others. “This fake Young Master Lee has offended my fiancée, so I taught him a lesson. What’s wrong with that? Isn’t that how you people settle things?”

Someone helped Lee Yang stand up. He didn’t know Qu Hao, but he knew Jing Tian. “Master Qi, this man is your guest. But isn’t he being too arrogant? How can he beat people up in public? Even if you don’t give Master Liu face, you have to at least give Master Wei Wu face. Now, even if we want to help Master Qi, we can’t really do that.”
“That’s right, Master Qi! Your friend is too unscrupulous.”
“Master Qi, you know where the bottom line is. You shouldn’t make things difficult for
us.”
“Master Qi!”
“Master Qi!”
Everyone started to criticize Jing Tian.
Jing Tian smiled slightly. He glanced at Qu Hao and said softly, “I’m sorry. I know you wanted to take the target away from me but these people won’t let me go that easily.”
Qu Hao smiled faintly. “It’s okay. They don’t dare to come after me directly. They can only take it out on you. It’s obvious that they’re trying to take advantage of you.”
Jing Tian didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
Jing Ni and I were having fun. They both took a lazy step forward and blocked us behind them.
Seeing this, Tong Hui sneered, “Oh, is this a hero saving a damsel in distress? Nanxing, is this the man you’ve found for yourself? He looks okay, but I wonder how he’ll fare in a battle.”
Jing Tian and Qu Hao ignored him. They stood there calmly.
Lee Yang finally got up. He clutched his stomach and slowly walked behind Tong Hui, he glared at Qu Hao fiercely. “So you’re close to Master Qi. But you’re just Mrs. Mai’s stepson. Don’t forget that Mrs. Mai, Master Gu Er and Master Wei Wu are allies!”
I looked at Jing Ni in astonishment. What’s going on? Jing Ni approached me, and said in a low voice, “Qu Hao’s identity can’t be revealed. So, they said that Mai Qi’s father was in poor health and Mrs. Mai had to withdraw from their alliance to take care of him. Qu Hao was revealed as Mrs. Mai’s stepson. Then, he was exiled by his father. Mrs. Mai became the final winner and Qu Hao was made to disappear.”
I understood and said in a low voice, “So, Lee Yang doesn’t really know the truth about Qu Hao?”
Jing Ni nodded and said with a smile, “This is probably the most novel identity Qu Hao has ever had in his life.”
“So Lee Yang thinks that Qu Hao relies on you to get to Jing Tian and is Jing Tian’s bodyguard?” I asked.
Jing Ni smiled and didn’t say anything.
I couldn’t help but whisper, “Qu Hao is willing to suffer any humiliation for you!”
Jing Tian turned around to look at Jing Ni and then asked Qu Hao, “Did you suffer any humiliation?”
Qu Hao also turned around to look at Jing ni and said immediately, “No! Absolutely not!”
I rubbed my forehead. “Stop feeding me dog food!”
Qu Hao asked Lee Yang nonchalantly, “So what? Why don’t you find Mrs. Mai and see what she has to say?”
Lee Yang turned to the crowd with disdain and said, “Don’t worry about him. He’s just a lowly person who has latched onto someone powerful.”
