Chapter 2 - Back To 20 Years Ago

Lu Beichi was Lu Beixiao's cousin. Just when he was about to get a better look at the girl, he was distracted by the sound of footsteps rushing up the stairs.
"Qiao Qiao! Qiao Qiao!" A girl called out Ye Qiao's name anxiously while charging up the stairs.
At this point, Ye Qiao had already regained her consciousness and had a grasp of the situation. It was Li Yun's voice that she heard, a girl whom she had an intense hatred toward now.
"Ye Qiao!" All of a sudden, the door burst open! Shen Xichuan was the first to enter, followed by a group of people who were mostly from the houses next door.
"Shen Xichuan, how dare you come into my house!?" Shen Xichuan was Lu Beichi's bitter rival, so his presence was obviously not welcomed. A fight seemed unavoidable as the boys needed to find a way to discharge their raging hormones. They were always fighting and brawling, anyway.
Two boys instinctively stepped forward to shield Shen Xichuan. They lived in the same neighborhood too, and their names were Zhang Yaojie and Chen Damao; both of them looked very fierce and their actions had displeased Lu Beichi even more.
"Bastards! We are going to sort this out right now!" Lu Beichi exclaimed.
"Qiao Qiao!" Soon, a girl with a graceful demeanor emerged from the group of boys. Her long, white dress stood out in stark contrast to her silky black hair. Her facial expression made it look as though she was worried.
"Mister Lu, please don't take it the wrong way. We are here to see Ye Qiao." The girl was Li Yun.
Lu Beichi was known as the bully of the Lu family, so she intentionally stepped forward to try to pacify the situation. With a timid gaze, she tried to play the role of a peacemaker.
Li Yun did not hesitate for a second to act innocently in order to get her way. Besides, Ye Qiao's presence was truly her excuse for coming.
However, a strong, tall figure suddenly entered the room from behind the group. The man's name was Lu Beixiao.
All of them looked at him anxiously as if they had just seen the God of Death. Intuitively, they took a few steps back, just to be safe.
In fact, they never really had the chance to see him up close before. Nevertheless, he was known as an authoritative figure in the area. The boys definitely did not expect him to be present.
Meanwhile, Li Yun's heart began to thump wildly.
Lu Beixiao possessed all the ideal male attributes of a man – broad shoulders, a firm waist, and long legs. His bronze-colored skin complimented his well-toned muscles that added to his impeccable charm. Most importantly, he had an absolutely handsome face. He was the prime example of masculinity!
Contrastingly, Shen Xichuan and Lu Beichi were no match to his unparalleled charisma.
"Lu…" Li Yun bit her tongue in an anxious attempt to speak to him while casting sheepish eyes at the man of her dreams. Unfortunately for her, he did not return her longing gaze.
At that moment, Lu Beichi stood quietly in a corner while waiting for Shen Xichuan and his boys to leave the house.
Despite being seniors, the boys had to regard Lu Beixiao with reverence and awe. They referred to him as the Incarnate Fiend. Everyone had to pay him the same respect.
Taking advantage of his cousin's presence, Lu Beichi proudly assumed Lu Beixiao's authority as his own and looked at Shen Xichuan with an unwelcoming squint.
In fact, Lu Beixiao's powerful influence sent Shen Xichuan trembling on the inside, but his outer appearance remained firm.
"Qiao Qiao, are you in there?" Ye Qiao was the granddaughter of Mister Ye, a man of noble character and high prestige in the neighborhood. Looking for an opportunity to stay, Shen Xichuan planned to use Ye Qiao as his excuse.
Sounds coming from the room made it sound like someone was astir in response to Shen Xichuan's call. From the inside, Ye Qiao slowly walked to the door and was seen wearing a very loose t-shirt. Both her arms and legs had been wiped with alcohol to regulate her body temperature and quickly cool it back to normal.
"Qiao Qiao! You are here!" Li Yun exclaimed in excitement. Nevertheless, her expression changed slightly as soon as she saw Ye Qiao's slender figure.. Without a pair of thick, black-framed glasses on her face, she looked rather stunning.
