Tang Hao said, “I’ll go buy it!”
“No way, it’s my treat today! I’ll go buy it! What flavor do you want?”
“I’m fine with anything. I’ll just have what you’re having.”
“Okay! Wait here.” With that, she walked into the ice-cream shop.
Tang Hao followed her. He could see that the shop was packed, with a long queue inside. Thus, he stood at the entrance and waited for her.
After a while, he suddenly saw a group of people walking over from the street to his left. There were around 10 people, they were quite young and looked about eighteen years old.
Tang Hao glanced over, and his expression suddenly changed.
He knew this group of people, they were students from his senior high. Among them was a couple which he was even more familiar with. It was Zhang Tianhao, and his first love, Li Qiaoqiao.
Tang Hao furrowed his brows and turned away.
Nevertheless, at that moment, that group of people spotted Tang Hao.
“Who’s that? Why does he look so familiar?” Someone shouted.
Zhang Tianhao glanced at him, and his expression shifted, a dark look appearing in his eyes.
‘Isn’t that guy Tang Hao?’
Previously, at Sky City Plaza, he had failed at his attempt to humiliate this guy. Instead, he was the one who was humiliated. He had never forgotten this incident.
Therefore, he held a bit of resentment in his heart toward Tang Hao.
In his eyes, Tang Hao was nothing but a mountain village kid, a lowly peasant worker; he was no different that garbage.
However, a useless person like him had somehow managed to attract a charming and sexy beauty. How could he not go insane with jealousy?
After he made contact with that sexy female boss, Tang Hao seemed to disappear behind the scenes. When he had encouraged his second uncle to mess with Tang Hao, not only did the plan fail, he had gotten his second uncle into trouble too.
Why did trash like him manage to get with that sexy beauty, but he could only end up with a girl like Li Qiaoqiao.
He gritted his teeth, his expression darkening with hints of ferocity.
Li Qiaoqiao, who was walking beside him, looked up as well and was stunned.
A conflicted look flashed across the features of her pretty face, such that even the lights in her eyes dimmed.
When he saw Li Qiaoqiao’s expression, Zhang Tianhao became even more furious as a deep hatred frantically grew in his heart.

“Isn’t that Tang Hao!”
Zhang Tianhao shouted out with a sullen expression.
“Tang Hao?” Several others gasped in surprise. Upon closer inspection, they recognized him as well. “It’s really Tang Hao!”
Following that, they each showed a somewhat disdainful and disgusted look on their faces.
This fellow Tang Hao was just a poor boy from a mountain village. He was not the same as those who were born and raised in the city, and they had always looked down on him for it.
His results were considered good, but when he was in his second year of high school, he was kicked out of school because of a fight. He must have been living in a miserable state since then!
As for the fighting incident, they also knew that Tang Hao and Zhang Tianhao had a fight of Li Qiaoqiao.
They turned their heads and glanced at Zhang Tianhao and Li Qiaoqiao. When they looked at Tang Hao again, there was a hint of arrogance in their eyes.
In their heads, Tang Hao was just an idiot. He was a poor lad that dared to compete with the principal’s son for a girl and buried whatever future he had for it.
“Tianhao, what a coincidence!”
A tall and thin young man standing beside Zhang Tianhao said condescendingly. His gaze was filled with mockery as he looked toward Tang Hao, who was in front of him.
“It’s almost been a year and a half, I wonder what this guy’s doing now?”
“Judging by the looks of it, he’s probably moving bricks at some construction site! Look at the way he’s dressed, you already know that he’s miserable!”
“Haha! That’s true! He’s just a poor loser, what can he do with his life anyway!”
The group of people laughed as they talked in a relaxed manner.
It was human nature. Seeing someone that was doing far worse than themselves would fill them up with a strong sense of superiority.
At this moment, Zhang Tianhao decided to add, “I know what he’s doing now.”
“Oh? Tianhao, what’s his job nowadays? Could it be, is he actually moving bricks around?!” The tall and thin young man asked.
Zhang Tianhao grinned cruelly and said, “It’d be good if he was, at least he’d still have some dignity left in him. That guy, he’s a gigolo now!”
All at once, there was a clamor in the group of people.
“What? A gigolo? That’s unreal! Who would’ve thought he’d stoop this low!”
“Damn! That’s disgusting!”
The group of people was a little astonished by this revelation, especially some of the girls. Thus, they could not help but show a disgusted expression.
Li Qiaoqiao frowned and was about to open her mouth, wanting to say something to retort, but she stopped.
Zhang Tianhao continued, “I saw it with my own eyes the other day. This guy was busy holding hands with an ugly and old fat woman. They were whispering sweet nothings to one another. I felt repulsed just looking at them.”
“These types of people are really too cheap. They’re able-bodied, yet they choose to sell their dignity and flesh instead of finding a proper job. It’s despicable!”
Zhang Tianhao said in full self-righteousness whilst wearing a cynical expression on his face.
As he was uttering these words, he was felt a moment of satisfaction in his heart. He thought to himself, ‘Oh, Tang Hao. I’m slandering and soiling your reputation on purpose. Let’s see how you’ll live with yourself in the future!’
“Woah! Who would’ve thought? He actually went and became a gigolo. That’s plain repulsive. I heard that the ladies that seek such services are old, wealthy women or those especially ugly looking ones. It’s impressive that he’s still able to perform!”
The tall thin young man said and continued to laugh wretchedly.
“Hey! Even then, it wouldn’t be too bad, as at least it’ll be with a female. The miserable part is that there are men that seek out gigolos as well! That’s like blatantly selling out their *ss!” Another person laughed out.
They were talking loudly with absolutely no restraint. Tang Hao furrowed his brows upon hearing their discussion, and his expression turned cold.
Zhang Tianhao had tried to frame him twice now, and he had now actually started to vilify him.
‘F*ck those b*stards!’ Tang Hao cursed inside.
Amidst their laughter, this group of passersby approached him, at which point the tall and thin young man walked closer with a mocking expression. Then, he shouted, “Yo! Tang Hao, long time no see!
“I heard you’re a gigolo now! How’s business going, good?”
The crowd behind him laughed out loud.
“Don’t ask him like that, Liu Junjie. He’s probably too embarrassed to answer you!”
“Right, right. You have to be a little more reserved!”
The group roared with laughter. They had were regarding Tang Hao as the subject of utter amusement.
Tang Hao narrowed his eyes slightly, and his gaze became colder.
“Haha! My apologies for being too straightforward. Speaking of which, these kinds of lowly jobs really do suit you!” Liu Junjie sneered.
Liu Junjie was a member of Zhang Tianhao’s posse. Tang Hao had managed to land a punch on this guy a few years back during the fight. Hence, he was holding onto a bit of a grudge until now.
Tang Hao kept a calm face and said nothing to ret
ort.
Seeing his reaction, Liu Junjie started to get bolder.
“Why aren’t you saying anything, Tang Hao! Aren’t you happy to meet your old classmates? Look, Qiaoqiao is here as well!” Liu Junjie said as he pointed toward Li Qiaoqiao.
“Hey! There’s nothing wrong with being a gigolo. You’re just selling your body anyway. Isn’t that good for you? Look at yourself, you don’t have a diploma, and you only graduated junior high. What else could you have done…”
Liu Junjie continued his rambling.
Before he could finish, Tang Hao’s eyes flashed coldly. He took a sudden big stride forward, raised his hand, and landed a perfect slap.
Smack!
The slap was crisp and loud. It immediately dazed Liu Junjie.
The group’s laughter stopped abruptly as they stood there, stunned.
Never in their wildest imagination did they imagine that Tang Hao would dare to throw punches!
“B*stard, you dare lay your hands on me?”
Liu Junjie covered his cheeks and snarled shrewdly.
“Why wouldn’t I? You’re speaking too despicably, so don’t you think you deserve it?” Tang Hao said with a cold sneer.
“You… you scum, you’re the gigolo here. You deserved to be talked down to!” Liu Junjie retorted furiously.
Tang Hao landed another slap and scowled, “You’re the gigolo. All your family members are gigolos! You believe anything that Zhang Tianhao feeds you, huh? Humph! What a bunch of idiots!”
Once again, it was another firm slap to the face.
Liu Junjie staggered back and fell right on his buttocks.
He was trembling all over as his heart swelled angrily. His face became extremely distorted as he said, “You’re the one who started this, Tang. Don’t blame me for being impolite now.”
He surged back up as he pushed up his sleeves, ready to dash toward Tang Hao. A few of the other boys pushed up their sleeves as well, prepared to throw punches.
While watching this scene unfold, Zhang Tianhao smiled complacently at the side.
At the exact moment, they heard a delicate cry from beside them.
“What are you guys doing?”
Liu Junjie and the others were stunned as they turned to look, and could not help but be stupefied.
At the entrance of the ice cream shop stood the beautiful silhouette of a woman wearing a white skirt. She had a splendid figure and was hair-raisingly beautiful.
At that moment, everyone was dumbfounded.
This person, wasn’t she the school’s beauty queen, Liu Bingyao? What was she doing here?
“No… Nothing!” Liu Junjie and the others quickly shook their heads. They stood up straight and readjusted their clothes for fear of losing face in front of the school’s beauty queen.
Zhang Tianhao’s eyes suddenly became steaming hot. He strode forward and asked eagerly, “Bingyao, why are you here?
“Zhang Tianhao?”
Liu Bingyao frowned at the sight of him and immediately understood what was happening. She also knew that Tang Hao had been kicked out of school because of Tianhao’s resentment.
Her charming face turned cold as she shot an icy glance toward Zhang Tianhao.
Zhang Tianhao did not take notice of Liu Bingyao’s lack of politeness. When they were in high school, Liu Bingyao had the same attitude toward all her suitors.
“Bingyao, what a coincidence! It’s rare for us to bump into each other, let’s hang out together!” Zhang Tianhao said enthusiastically.
On the other hand, Li Qiaoqiao’s face was becoming one of disgust.
“No way!”
Liu Bingyao spat out coldly. She walked past Zhang Tianhao and walked toward Tang Hao. A beautiful smile appeared on her charming face as she spoke softly, “Tang Hao, let’s go!”
With that, she handed the ice cream in her hand to Tang Hao.
Chapter 87 - Mad Dog

Zhang Tianhao looked a little stiff and embarrassed as Liu Bingyao walked past him without so much as a glance.
However, he comforted himself by pretending that Liu Bingyao had always been this way toward everyone.
Nevertheless, he felt something was amiss the next moment when he realized that Bingyao was walking toward Tang Hao’s direction.
As soon as he turned around, he saw Liu Bingyao greeting Tang Hao with a big smile and passing him the ice cream in her hand.
Immediately after, he felt as if his whole body had been numb from being struck by lightning.
He was not the only one. Liu Junjie, as well as Li Qiaoqiao, were dumbfounded by the situation.
Their jaws were wide open, and their eyes almost popped out of their sockets. It was as if they had witnessed the most unfathomable scene in the world.
“What… the hell is going on?”
Liu Junjie’s expression turned blank.
He was beginning to wonder if he was still in dreamland. Otherwise, why would a beauty like Liu Bingyao have any sort of relationship with someone like Tang Hao?
Tang Hao was just a poor loser. Moreover, it was said that he was selling his body for a living.
As for Liu Bingyao, she was No. 1 high school’s undisputed beauty queen. The number of pursuers she had during her three years of high school was uncountable, and they had all been turned down.
How could such different types of people have any kind of relationship?
Nevertheless, as the two of them intimately stood side by side, it seemed as if they were on a date.
At this moment, it felt like the sky was falling right on top of them.
As for Zhang Tianhao, his mind went blank, and the color drained from his face.
“It’s impossible… it’s absolutely impossible. There must be some sort of explanation!” He muttered to himself as his heart went mad with envy.
How could this be?
Why was Bingyao getting together with Tang Hao?
Earlier on, it was that charming and sexy lady. Now, it was the goddess-like Liu Bingyao. They both seemed to have some sort of relationship with this Tang Hao. Had they both gone blind?
How was this happening? He, Zhang Tianhao, was tenfold, if not a thousand-fold, better than Tang Hao in every aspect.
He started trembling heavily, and his expression gradually became malevolent.
The tremendous defeat he felt was tormenting him to near insanity.
Furthermore, Li Qiaoqiao was not much different as she stood there stupefied. She was still in disbelief at what she was witnessing.
Last time, that flirtatious beautiful lady had already rendered her ashamed and unable to show her face. Now, Liu Bingyao made her feel as if she had to strive harder for her existence to be known. Not only that, she also made her feel a sense of inferiority just by standing in front of her.
She started becoming paler by the second. It even made her lower her head, just so she did not need to look at the two anymore.
“Bingyao, what relationship do you have with him?”
Zhang Tianhao had a fierce look on his face as he questioned her sternly.
Liu Bingyao frowned upon hearing this, and there was a look of disgust in her eyes. Then, she replied in an icy tone, “Zhang Tianhao, it’s none of your business.”
Zhang Tianhao was stunned by her response. His expression grew fiercer by the second, “You’re not aware of it, Bingyao. But, Tang Hao’s a vile little person. He’s been with wealthy women before, and he’ll do just about anything for money.”
“It’s true. He’s a gigolo!” Liu Junjie echoed.
Liu Bingyao glared at him in frustration and said, “Stop this nonsense, I think you guys are the vile ones! I know exactly what kind of a person you are, Zhang Tianhao. You’re a rule breaker and evildoer at school just ’cause your father’s the principal. I know all the wrong you’ve been committing.”
“I even heard that your dad was arrested some time ago. That’
s karma!”
“You…” Zhang Tianhao instantly became furious. The expression on his face turned even more terrifying.
A while ago, his dad had been prosecuted and sent to prison, and it instantly made him lose all the respect he had previously accumulated. Last time, everyone would come out in groups if he asked, and they would take turns to shower him with compliments. Now, those people would run away as quick as they could when they saw him on the street.
This incident left a massive scar on his ego, and he refused to mention it further. Nevertheless, his dignity had now been torn apart in public.
“Dirty b*tch!”
Zhang Tianhao roared out as his eyes turned bloodshot. It was as if he had totally lost his mind.
He dashed forward and raised his hand, getting ready to land it on Liu Bingyao’s face.
Liu Bingyao was frightened by him, as she would never have thought that Zhang Tianhao would go crazy so abruptly.
“Be careful!” Tang Hao jumped and stood in front of her. He lifted up his hand and grabbed ahold of Zhang Tianhao’s hand firmly.
As soon as he saw Tang Hao, Zhang Tianhao grew more frenzied than before, “Tang Hao, I’m going to kill you!” However, he struggled to break free of his grip. No matter how hard he tried to tug it off, it would not budge by even a hairsbreadth.
“Look at yourself, Zhang Tianhao. You look just like a mad dog!” Tang Hao said in a cold tone.
“You bastard, you’re the mad dog!” Zhang Tianhao roared frantically. Since he was not able to break his hand free, he clenched his left fist and swung it at Tang Hao’s face.
“Smack!”
A crisp sound was heard.
Tang Hao blocked it completely with his other hand.
The corner of his mouth started curling up into a grin as he revealed a somewhat upright expression. “I’ve been itching to punch you, Zhang Tianhao. You’ve tried to frame me twice now, and I haven’t even gotten my revenge yet!”
As he said these words, he squeezed his right hand with a slight force, and a crisp, crunching noise was heard. Zhang Tianhao started miserable shrieking, and his complexion turned deathly pale.
