Transmigrated as the fake young master, I'll beat up the scumbags and b*tches-Chapter 300Vol. 1 - - Long time no see
Kang Xin knew that HuMing would be going to the Xia household for dinner with Xia Chen after school today.
And ever since they arrived in the capital, HuMing hadn’t asked her to do a single thing.
Of course, she didn’t think that was a big deal—after all, HuMing had always believed he could handle everything on his own.
In the meantime, she’d heard plenty of rumors about Gu ZhaoChuan.
Even though Gu ZhaoChuan was well-liked, he never got too close to anyone.
More importantly, even the school’s student council took orders from him.
Just hearing that much was enough to guess how much influence Gu ZhaoChuan had at this school.
Not to mention, every single student around them seemed to back Gu ZhaoChuan without question.
But what caught HuMing’s curiosity recently was how Gu ZhaoChuan hadn’t been going straight home after school. Instead, he’d disappear for a while before returning. His movements had caught Kang Xin’s attention.
She subconsciously glanced out the window. The weather was getting colder by the day—many of her classmates had already switched to long sleeves to keep from catching cold.
Her mind drifted back to the day she’d gone to visit the cemetery. Back to that person who was already gone.
She hadn’t even told HuMing about it. Who would’ve thought she’d kept that kind of secret all these years?
Now, there was no way to find out if that organization still existed. Even if she wanted to find that person from back then, it was impossible now.
She packed up her bag. From her vantage point up high, she could see HuMing and Xia Chen chatting and laughing as they walked toward the school gates. Not far off, Gu ZhaoChuan was watching them. freewebnoveℓ.com
Only from her angle could she see Gu ZhaoChuan standing there.
Gu ZhaoChuan was always like this—lurking in the shadows, always waiting to strike at HuMing.
If things kept going like this, they’d be on the back foot. She didn’t know what preparations HuMing had made, but she knew she needed to make her own.
“Kang Xin, want to walk home together?” a female classmate asked.
Kang Xin turned her head and gave a calm nod.
Everyone was already used to Kang Xin being like this. It wasn’t that she didn’t smile—it was just that this was her usual expression.
So people tended to be patient and understanding with her.
“By the way, tell me more about Gu YunZhou.”
“Ooh, sure, sure! Speaking of Gu YunZhou...”
The girls linked arms and left the classroom together, chatting happily as they went.
…
On the way to the airport, HuMing and Xia Chen shared a car.
“HuMing, did you buy a gift for my sister?” Xia Chen asked, glancing over at him with a knowing look.
HuMing froze in place. Honestly, it hadn’t even crossed his mind.
Seeing his expression, Xia Chen scratched his head helplessly. He silently pulled a small pouch out of his backpack and handed it to HuMing.
“I figured you wouldn’t remember, so I got one for you ahead of time. She’s been bugging me about this lipstick forever—just give it to her directly when you see her.”
“Uh... okay. Thanks. And sorry.” HuMing didn’t even need to think twice to know this was a gift meant for Xia XiaoXi.
He’d been too distracted lately to deal with anything else and had completely forgotten about getting a gift.
Who would've thought Xia Chen would prepare one for him in advance?
At this point, he really had no excuse to refuse Xia GaoWu’s kindness.
The whole family treated him like one of their own. Honestly, it was like they’d already accepted him as their future son-in-law…
That thought came out of nowhere and he quickly shoved it aside.
Seriously, where had his brain been lately? Back then, all he ever thought about was completing his missions. Now he was out here daydreaming about marriage?
“…Weird,” HuMing mumbled under his breath.
Soon, they arrived at the airport.
The terminal was packed. If you weren’t paying close attention, it was almost impossible to spot someone in the crowd.
But Xia Chen had already told Xia XiaoXi ahead of time to meet them at a ramen shop inside the airport after landing.
The two of them sat down on a bench nearby, casually chatting about school while they waited.
“HuMing, have you ever thought about what you’ll do in JIngDu after graduation?”
“Freeload, lie flat, and let my family take care of me,” HuMing replied, dead serious about his life philosophy. It was the kind of degenerate talk that made Xia Chen roll his eyes in disbelief.
Someone with such a bright future, and this was his plan?
“Even if you want to lie flat, I doubt the Gu family would let you. You’re still one of them. And you’ll probably have a share of the Gu family’s assets in the future, too.”
“Does having shares stop me from lying flat? It’s simple—life’s endpoint is lying flat, I’m just speeding things up,” HuMing replied nonchalantly, clearly confident in his background.
In his last life, he’d been through too much. He had no interest in chasing thrills anymore.
If Shi Zhong hadn’t dragged him back into all this, he’d probably be living as the Gu family’s golden boy right now.
So yeah, HuMing had personal grudges against Shi Zhong—especially since Shi Dan had set his sights on Ye QiuXue.
“Xia Chen, talking about me is pointless. I’ve known where I was headed for a long time. But you—what if you had to take over the Xia family tomorrow? Are you ready for that?”
That question made Xia Chen freeze. Because he could tell HuMing was being completely serious.
If he had to take over now, it would mean something had happened to his father.
To be honest, Xia Chen had never imagined a life without his dad.
To him, his father was still his umbrella in the rain. And he didn’t think he was strong enough to be that for anyone else.
“I… I don’t think I could make that decision. Even if I wanted to take over the Xia family, the time’s too short. I don’t have the confidence to do it right.”
From the start, his father had always been his role model.
As the person closest to him, Xia Chen had seen with his own eyes how his father carried the whole family on his shoulders.
Even after their mother passed, his dad did everything he could for him and his sister.
Just that alone made Xia Chen feel like he could never live up to the same standard.
“…I see.” HuMing fell silent.
He understood how Xia Chen felt—not everyone had the strength to shoulder everything at once.
He could only hope that when the day came, Xia Chen would be able to hold on.
He didn’t want everything he’d done to be for nothing.
Just then, he felt someone quietly sneaking up behind him—but he didn’t say a word.
The next moment, two hands covered his eyes and a playful voice called out:
“Guess who!?”
“…Do I really need to guess?”
“Hehe~” The hands let go. HuMing turned around—
And saw Xia XiaoXi beaming at him. She wore a cap, sunglasses, and a mask—if you weren’t looking closely, you’d never recognize her.
“HuMing! Long time no see!”
