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

Xia XiaoXi opened the door and saw the man who had just appeared on the balcony standing right before her.

She looked at him, puzzled, and then asked.

"What's the matter?"

"Excuse me, was there anyone else here earlier?"

"No."

"Mind if I take a look inside?"

Before she could respond, the man pressed against the door, trying to force his way in.

Xia XiaoXi's expression instantly turned cold. She glared at the man and shouted sternly.

"What do you think you're doing? Do you want me to call the police?!"

The man had thought that Xia XiaoXi, being young, would be easy to push around. He hadn't expected her to resist. From her demeanor, she clearly wasn't someone to be easily bullied.

He quickly backed off, muttered an apology, and returned to his room.

Xia XiaoXi kept a wary gaze fixed on him until he disappeared; only then did she let out a sigh of relief after closing the door.

She had encountered people like him before, though usually they were extreme fans.

Turning around, she searched for HuMing, but the balcony door was wide open, the cold wind blowing through and causing the curtains to flutter.

...

HuMing sat in a restaurant's corner, his phone displaying a live feed of Yu YueLuo's activities in her room.

He wasn't particularly interested, but he could confirm one thing: Lee Tian and Yu YueLuo's relationship had completely fallen apart.

On the surface, they still acted like a husband and wife, but in reality, they were living separate lives.

He wondered what Li Yue would think when she found out about this. After all, family harmony was vital to her.

HuMing didn't care much about Li Yue's relationships, though. He had something far more important to take care of.

His phone suddenly vibrated. It was a call from Liang Feng.

"Hello, Mr. Liang."

"About the thing you asked me to look into last time. I've found something, but the outcome is rather unexpected."

"Unexpected?" HuMing raised an eyebrow, his interest clearly piqued.

"Yes, Li Yue... she isn't actually Lee Tian's daughter."

Hearing this news, HuMing couldn't help but feel a ripple of surprise. Who would've thought, after all the twists and turns, that Li Yue wasn't Lee Tian's biological daughter?

Rubbing his temples, HuMing continued.

"Send me the evidence. I'll keep it for later use. Also, have you made arrangements to get your family to a safe place? You should do that as soon as possible, or it could get troublesome."

"I understand, but... what if Lee Tian comes after me for revenge?"

Liang Feng's voice was tinged with fear. While he wanted to protect his family, it didn't mean he wasn't afraid of dying.

HuMing's voice remained steady.

"When that time comes, I'll die with him."

"Huh? What does that mean?"

"You don't need to know. Just do as I say."

With that, HuMing hung up the phone and slipped it back into his pocket.

Outside, the rain had begun to let up. When HuMing returned to the villa, he found Han LiTian sitting on the couch, reading a newspaper. Upon seeing him, Han LiTian's face visibly relaxed.

"HuMing, next time you come home this late, be sure to let the driver know. Being out so late is dangerous, especially in this weather."

Han LiTian was clearly worried about him. After all, it had been pouring rain outside, and any accident would have caused a lot of trouble.

HuMing set down his backpack and sat beside Han LiTian. He looked at him seriously and asked,

"Dad, what do you think about Han ShuYi's engagement?"

Han LiTian froze. He hadn't expected HuMing to bring up the matter again after so much time had passed.

"I don't have much of an opinion. After all, it's your young people's business. Of course, I know this isn't fair to you. I've said that if you want compensation, I'll do whatever I can to make it up to you."

This was the most Han LiTian could offer. After all, Han ShuYi was also his son, and in a way, he felt he owed ShuYi more.

But HuMing shook his head, a trace of helplessness in his expression.

"That's not what I meant. I'm asking, what do you think of the Lee family?"

"The Lee family?"

As soon as the Lee family was mentioned, Han LiTian's thoughts immediately turned to Lee Tian, that opportunist.

That man had embarrassed the Han family publicly at the banquet, and if it weren't for his later efforts to make amends, Han LiTian wouldn't have wanted any connection with him at all.

And recent events had only made him dislike Lee Tian even more.

Cutting corners and embezzling large sums of money was bad enough, but did he really think he couldn't see that Lee Tian was deliberately shifting the blame onto his assistant?

"If not for this engagement, I wouldn't have any dealings with the Lee family."

"I think you should keep an eye on the Lee family. Something doesn't feel right about them lately."

HuMing's words left Han LiTian feeling perplexed. But he quickly realized that HuMing didn't want to interfere in the matter directly.

After all, the relationship between HuMing and the Lee family was already strained. If certain things came from his mouth, it might come off as revengeful.

He's trying to let him investigate himself!

Han LiTian took a deep breath, what kind of father wouldn't trust his own son?

"Alright, I'll look into what's going on. But HuMing, if anything comes up, you must tell me, okay?"

"Dad, I owe you all too much." HuMing's serious tone caused Han LiTian to furrow his brow in confusion. "I've been living Han ShuYi's life for so many years. One day, I'll return everything to you all."

"You silly boy, what are you talking about? We're family; no need to speak of such things!"

Han LiTian ruffled HuMing's hair, though he couldn't shake the feeling that there was something deeper behind HuMing's words.

...

After showering, HuMing sat on his bed, looking at his phone, while Kang Xin was working on her test papers at the desk.

Kang Xin noticed that the questions on her recent tests seemed to be getting easier, and her speed at solving them gradually increased.

At this rate, she'd soon be able to catch up with the progress of the other students!

"Kang Xin, if I remember correctly, you do not have a contract with the Han family, right?"

"Yes, young master. The reason I stayed with the Han family was because you took me in. I was too young then so I couldn't sign a proper contract."

"Then, when it's time to leave, it'll be much simpler."

HuMing nodded, already making plans in his mind. However, Kang Xin turned around, her eyes serious as she looked at him.

"Young master, when are we leaving here?"

"Hmm? What's wrong, did something happen?"

As soon as HuMing heard the tone in her voice, he felt something was off.

Kang Xin blinked, then said.

"It's Han ShuYi. He's been pestering me lately."

"What? Han ShuYi's pestering you?"

"He's been asking me about you, trying to ask what you've been doing lately."

"I see... If he continues, just tell him I've been focusing on my studies. And if he lays a hand on you, fight back. I'll handle everything after."
