Ye's Mother clenched her fists tightly.
No, Ye Li absolutely cannot be expelled!
She pulled her younger brother aside, "Wang Gao, think of something quickly. Ye Li didn’t get beaten up for nothing." The thought of her son’s bruised and swollen face made her heart ache.
"Let’s settle this," Wang Gao sighed wearily. "The other party’s lawyer is too skilled. Even if we take this to court, we won’t gain the upper hand. As he said, escalating this won’t benefit anyone."
Though Ye's Mother was still indignant, for Ye Li’s future, she had no choice but to swallow her pride.
"Have you reached an agreement?" Bai Linjiang’s face was still adorned with a faint smile. Known as the "Smiling Tiger," he always won cases with a smile.
Su Corporation was also known as the "Undefeated General." Ever since Su Hua took over Su Corporation, not a single case had been lost!
"Lin Xuan, just you wait! And as for this matter, let it be. No need to compensate for medical expenses." Ye's Mother pulled Ye Li away.
Throughout the entire ordeal, Ye Li’s expression remained grim.
When he found out that Su Hua’s lawyer was handling the case, he knew there was no way to deal with Lin Xuan.
He couldn’t understand why—why did Su Hua like Lin Xuan so much? What was so great about that loser, Lin Xuan? Even after hurting her so deeply, Su Hua remained devoted to him!
Lin Xuan and Bai Linjiang walked downstairs together.
"Lawyer Bai, thank you," Lin Xuan said.
Bai Linjiang studied Lin Xuan. He was quite handsome, the type of "fresh-faced" young man. Could it be that Su Hua was so concerned because…
No, that couldn’t be.
Bai Linjiang shook his head.
Su Hua, a strong-willed woman, was entirely focused on her work. She wouldn’t be swayed by mere looks. Even if she were to find a boyfriend, it would be someone stronger, not someone younger and inexperienced like him.
"Mr. Lin, what is your relationship with Su Hua? Are you relatives or friends?" Bai Linjiang couldn’t help but ask, curious about the identity of someone who would warrant sending a top lawyer like him to handle a student fight.
Lin Xuan: "Neither."
Bai Linjiang: "Then what is your relationship?"
Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow: "I’m her man."
Bai Linjiang: "!!!" Holy—! Su Hua’s man!
What earth-shattering news is this?
From a distance, Ye Li watched Lin Xuan’s retreating figure, a trace of resentment flickering in his eyes.
They say distance creates beauty, and once you have something, you stop cherishing it.
Perhaps Lin Xuan would compromise now, and Su Hua would soon grow tired of him. He would wait for the day Lin Xuan was cast aside by Su Hua!
Wang Gao got into Ye's Father and Ye's Mother’s car. They were planning to take Ye Li to the hospital, and the law office happened to be on the way.
Wang Gao kept frowning, trying to figure out Bai Linjiang’s identity.
There weren’t many lawyers with such capabilities. Who exactly was he?
"I’m so angry! Our son was beaten to such a state, and yet that guy got off scot-free!" Ye's Mother gritted her teeth, seething with frustration.
Ye's Father sighed, "That lawyer is too skilled. And the truth is, we don’t have any evidence to prove that Lin Xuan started the fight. According to his account, it was our son who attacked Lin Xuan first, and Lin Xuan only fought back in self-defense."
"Husband, you must investigate who’s behind Lin Xuan. We need to teach them a lesson!"
"Don’t worry, I will," Ye's Father replied, his face darkening.
Suddenly, Wang Gao had an epiphany.
That man was…
He quickly took out his phone to search, and sure enough, it was him! Bai Linjiang!
"Sister, brother-in-law, do you know who that lawyer is?" Wang Gao asked urgently, his voice tinged with anxiety.
Ye's Mother replied, "From his introduction, I think his name is Bai Linjiang. Why?"
"Do you know who he is?"
"Hmph, I don’t care who he is," Ye's Mother said dismissively. "No matter how good he is, can he really surpass Ye Real Estate?"
"No, we really can’t compare to him," Wang Gao said, his heart sinking. They had offended him today. If he held a grudge, Wang Gao’s career as a lawyer, as well as his sister and brother-in-law’s company, could be in jeopardy.
Ye's Father felt a wave of unease and pressed, "Who is he?"
Wang Gao: "Bai Linjiang, the top lawyer under Su Corporation."
"What? Su Corporation?" Ye's Father’s eyes widened in horror.
Ye's Mother scoffed, "This is a society ruled by law. No matter how powerful their company is, what can they do to us?"
"Woman, what do you know?!" Ye's Father glared at her. "Su Corporation is the largest company in the country! Their methods are terrifying. They have a team of top-tier computer experts, PR teams, and legal teams—all the best in the nation! Our company isn’t some impenetrable fortress. If they want to find loopholes in our company, it won’t be hard for them!"
"And their company is immensely wealthy. Even if they can’t find anything, what if they decide to support our competitors and crush us? How would we handle that?"
Ye's Father’s face was filled with panic.
If Su Corporation really targeted them, they were done for.
"That powerful?" Ye's Mother’s face was filled with shock.
"Husband, Lin Xuan is from the Lin family. The Lin family can’t even get close to the Su family. The person behind Lin Xuan probably isn’t from the Su family. Maybe he just has some connection with that lawyer."
Ye's Father pinched the bridge of his nose, "Regardless, I need to prepare for the worst."
He had to thoroughly inspect the company’s internal issues and take preventive measures.
As for the rest…
Ye's Father turned to Ye Li, "Ye Li, buy some gifts and go apologize to Lin Xuan."
"Dad, Mom, don’t worry too much. Lin Xuan is just a small-time lover for someone in the Su family. They don’t value him that much. Sending Bai Linjiang was probably just a casual move. Don’t overthink it," Ye Li said.
"If she really cared about Lin Xuan, she would have come herself, not just sent a lawyer."
"A lover? That’s a relief," Ye's Father exhaled in relief.
In high society, lovers were generally seen as temporary flings.
The other party probably wouldn’t go to great lengths to target their company.
"Ye Li, from now on, keep your distance from Lin Xuan and don’t provoke him," Ye's Father warned.
"Got it," Ye Li replied dismissively.
At Su Corporation, in the chairman’s office.
The company’s executives were reporting to Su Hua.
Jiang Qing walked in with a phone, "Su Hua, the president of Qing University says he has an urgent matter to discuss with you."
"Alright."
Su Hua took the phone and held it to her ear, "What is it?"
"Su Hua, here’s the situation," the president said respectfully. "Tomorrow is our school’s opening ceremony. We’d like to invite you to give a speech to the students."
In the past, he had always contacted Jiang Qing, who would then relay the request to Su Hua. As the chairman of Su Corporation, Su Hua was always extremely busy and had never agreed to participate in such a small event as a school speech.
But today, seeing Bai Linjiang handle Lin Xuan’s matter, the president felt that Lin Xuan and Su Hua must have an unusual relationship.
He thought that perhaps this time, Su Hua might agree.
Su Hua asked, "What time?"
"Three in the afternoon," the president quickly replied.
"Su Hua, tomorrow at three in the afternoon, you have an important business meeting in Lin City that you need to attend," Jiang Qing reminded her.

I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!
