Drama Queen Reborn as a Top Student!-Chapter 837 - 386: Deep-Rooted Injustice
The sun was shining brightly, the mourning hall solemn.
At some point, a gust of wind arose, causing the pear blossoms in the orchard to fall with a rustle, scattering across the courtyard.
It was as if a rain of pear flowers had fallen in the late spring.
A young blond boy stood in front of the mourning hall, casually catching a floating pear petal, its pure white hue unable to match the threefold radiance of the youth’s face.
This beautiful scene would surely be unforgettable for many for the rest of their lives.
"Everyone knows the Four Seasons Manor was a former royal retreat. Sang Kunrou achieved a great victory at Yunshan, preventing foreign invaders. In gratitude, the former Emperor Wen granted him the Four Seasons Manor, surpassing traditional boundaries. Later, Sang Kunrou gave the manor as a dowry to his only beloved daughter, Sang Ziming."
The boy’s voice was icy cold, like a sword piercing the heart, devoid of any warmth even in late spring.
The names Sang Kunrou and Sang Ziming had long become forbidden.
This boy brazenly spoke out these long-buried secrets in front of the Yu family.
Those with a high sense of caution dared not listen further, finding excuses to leave.
Wei Lai and Han Li had already prepared to dismiss the guests.
"Let’s see who dares to leave."
A cold shout from the boy, and even the trees in the courtyard seemed to tremble, causing more pear blossoms to flutter down, covering the ground in white.
Everyone stood frozen on the spot.
Yu Fusheng’s face was terrifyingly sullen, his fierce eyes locked onto Amos.
Amos ignored his gaze, sweeping his eyes over the crowd, everyone avoiding his gaze wherever it fell.
The boy curled his lips, casually pointing at someone.
"You, come out."
The one pointed out was none other than Helian Yu.
Helian Yu was momentarily stunned, seeing everyone around looking at her, she furrowed her brows but stood still.
The boy was not annoyed, smiling as he asked: "Tell me, who is Sang Ziming?"
Helian Yu glanced at Yu Fusheng, pursed her lips, and said: "She is the daughter of the traitor Sang Kunrou, doomed to be nailed to the pillar of shame forever."
History was indeed written that way.
In everyone’s perception, it was indeed so.
Na Amo looked at Amos in confusion, not understanding what he intended to do.
Having circled around, how did it come back to Sang Kunrou and Sang Ziming? Wasn’t he here to find Yu Yisen and Shen Qiunong?
"Sang Kunrou was not a traitor." A stern voice pierced through the crowd.
People turned to see a young man and woman striding in.
In the crowd, Mrs. Xiang covered her mouth in shock: "Yan’er, Chenyu...."
The newcomers were Xiang Chenyan and Xiang Chenyu.
Xiang Chenyu’s gaze swept over the crowd, his sharp eyes scanning each person until they finally landed on Helian Yu’s face, repeating, "Sang Kunrou was not a traitor."
Helian Yu glanced at Yu Fusheng, sneering, "Is your Xiang family trying to overturn Sang Kunrou’s verdict?"
The crowd erupted, looking at Mrs. Xiang with eyes full of terror.
Amos was, after all, a foreigner, not of our kind, his heart must be different.
And why were Xiang Chenyan and Xiang Chenyu following along with this nonsense?
Mrs. Xiang hurriedly stepped out, "Chenyan, Chenyu, what nonsense are you talking? Leave now."
Xiang Chenyan’s face was serious, unmoved in the slightest, his voice cold: "Mother, you have been deceived for too long. Today, I will reveal the truth we have investigated."
Yu Fusheng squinted his eyes, barely restraining his anger, but it was clear in his tone: "Xiang Chenyan, do you know what you are doing?"
Xiang Chenyan was silent for a moment, then looked up, unafraid.
"Investigating the truth is my duty as a police officer."
Yu Ruohuan jumped out, yelling angrily: "Oh, so your Xiang family has already developed rebellious intentions, colluding with this Amos, attempting to overturn Sang Kunrou’s verdict, utterly delusional! Azure Dragon Army, where are you, arrest these people for me."
Lei Jian rushed in with his team, the famous captain of the Azure Dragon Army, whose name alone would make anyone tremble.
The crowd grew noisy; who would have thought that just attending a funeral could lead to such a ridiculous event.
Now, it’s impossible to leave even if one wanted to.
Yu Ruohuan became smug, eager to show off in front of Gu Chengzhao, Na Amo, and Gu Bichen, letting them know what it meant to offend the Yu family.
She pointed at Amos, hysterically saying: "Arrest him for me!"
I want to skin him alive!
At this moment, all eyes were fixed on Lei Jian.
This tall, strong man with a steely, cold gaze became the focus of the entire crowd.
The legendary, powerful, and mysterious Azure Dragon Army was utterly loyal to the Yu family, their greatest trump card.
Amos and the Xiang family are in for a tough time.
The Gu family siding with Amos this time will likely face repercussions later.
Many sighed inwardly, opposing the Yu family is too foolish and impulsive.
Yu Fusheng’s eyes were fixed on Lei Jian, sensitively noticing something was off. Before he could react, he saw Lei Jian aiming his gun at the back of Amos’s head.
Yu Fusheng breathed a sigh of relief, thinking he was overthinking.
Yu Ruohuan arrogantly curled her lips, looking at Amos as if he were a dead man.
"The crime of Sang Kunrou’s treason is well-known. Anyone who dares to overturn the case has ulterior motives and will be considered a traitor as well."
Yu Ruohuan’s words made everyone present tense up.
"Amos." Yu Ruohuan walked up to Amos arrogantly.
"You insolent fool, the humiliation you gave me before, today I will repay you with interest..."
With that said, she raised her arm high.
However, her hand was deftly caught just as it was about to strike Amos’s face.
It was a hand more beautiful than a woman’s, with skin as white as jade, fingers slender and long, combining feminine grace with masculine vigor, the exposed veins silently showcasing strength.
The owner of the hand had a face of indistinguishable gender, and a pair of icy blue eyes looked over with a half-smile, sending chills down one’s spine.
Yu Ruohuan, frantic, shouted, "Lei Jian, kill him for me!"
The young man arched an eyebrow, utterly ignoring the gun pointed at his head.
Is he blind or just stupid?
On someone else’s territory, with a gun to his head, he still dared to be so arrogant.
Everyone felt a pang of anxiety for the young man.
Even if he’s the young master of the Mei Fei Family, this is the Yu family’s territory. A dragon must coil, doesn’t he fear the Yu family might actually shoot him?
The ruthlessness of the Yu family is renowned.
"Yu Ruohuan."
The young man’s voice was as melodious as a spring, as gentle as a lover’s whisper.
In Yu Ruohuan’s stunned state, she heard a crisp "crack."
Her wrist bone fractured.
The sharp pain hit her brain first. Yu Ruohuan screamed, tears instantly streaming out, in her blurred vision was the young man’s androgynous face and enigmatic cold smile.
"Ah..." someone squealed timidly.
Having remained silent, Gu Bichen, hiding behind his parents, looked at Amos in shock.
Wei Zhuhua instinctively rushed forward, "Ruohuan..."
Yet, it was still too late. Yu Ruohuan’s right hand drooped lifelessly.
Yu Ruohuan’s face turned pale, and when she regained her senses, she gritted her teeth and hissed, "You dare hurt me?"
Simultaneously, she attempted a sneak attack, hoping to turn the tide.
After all, she had trained with the Azure Dragon Army and knew some moves, though rusty from lack of practice.
However, the opponent easily saw through it, kicked her knee, causing Yu Ruohuan to kneel with a cry of pain.
"Lei Jian, what are you doing?"
Yu Ruohuan yelled in frustration.
Lei Jian stood behind Amos, with his gun aimed at Amos’s head. With a pull of the trigger, he could blow Amos’s brains out.
No one expected Amos to remain so arrogant under the threat of Lei Jian’s gun.
Does he truly have no fear of death, or is he certain Lei Jian wouldn’t dare shoot?
Yu Fusheng noticed something amiss and discreetly retreated.
The next moment, everyone saw Lei Jian’s gun move away from Amos’s head, aiming at someone else.
Upon seeing who it was, the crowd gasped in shock.
Yu Ruohuan shouted in disbelief, "Lei Jian, have you gone mad?"
Lei Jian held the gun steadily, his gaze fixed intensely in the direction he was aiming.
Standing there was a person.
The one he was loyal to, Yu Fusheng.
