Shocking! The young educated youth had just arrived and was already clashing with spies.

Chapter 518 Is this a side effect of prolonged contact with normal human society?

Seeing Li Fangfang embarrass herself, Chen Ping felt she deserved it, but she didn't immediately laugh out loud. She didn't even have a gloating expression; she just looked at her coldly.

"Are you getting on the bus or not?"

Li Fangfang was already furious with Chu Xin, so she was unlikely to pay any attention to her. She immediately put her hands on her hips and glared at her angrily.

"Tell me, did you conspire with that driver to deliberately bully me?!"

Her unreasonable words made Chen Ping burst out laughing.

Is this bullying her?

Chu Xin was clearly trying to avoid trouble, okay? If she had actually caused trouble for Li Fangfang, she would be standing here babbling away like a ghost!

"You should be glad Chu Xin doesn't want to get involved in trivial matters, otherwise..."

She didn't finish her sentence, but the meaning was clear: she was definitely going to get you into big trouble.

Before Li Fangfang could utter another word, Chen Ping's face turned cold as she asked her one last time, "Are you leaving or not?"

...Li Fangfang gritted her teeth.

When did she become someone who has no background and is dirt poor, to be threatened by?

Does having a boyfriend in Kyoto give you the right to hog her?

"I won't sit!"

"Hmph, you'll see how your group goes without me. You won't be able to explain things to your uncle alone!"

Feeling emboldened, Chen Ping glanced at Chu Yunting without saying a word, but then the car started moving.

Then it sped away, grazing Li Fangfang's side in the same manner!

Li Fangfang was stunned at first, and when she realized that the car had really left, she was so angry that she jumped up and down in a frenzy.

"Aaaaah, you people are going too far! I'm going to tell my uncle and make him kick you all out! Kick you out! Kick you out!! Kick you all out!!"

The high-pitched scream startled passersby, and even Chen Ping and her companion, who were sitting in their car, had driven more than ten meters away when the high-pitched sound still echoed in their ears.

After enduring the lingering sonic attack with a furrowed brow, Chen Ping noticed her colleague nervously looking back. She reassured her, saying:

"It's alright, Brother Wang, don't worry. Nothing will happen here in Kyoto. She has a mouth under her nose; as long as she's willing to ask for directions, she'll definitely find the guesthouse."

Colleague Wang: ...

Is this what he's afraid of?

What he feared was that the young lady could call the deputy factory director and complain about him without even returning to Weinan.

Wouldn't it be incredibly unlucky to let innocent people like them get caught in the crossfire?

But it seems that Comrade Chen Ping has become someone you can't afford to offend, and even though his colleague Brother Wang was seething with anger, he didn't dare to say a word.

Chen Ping knew he was in a dilemma, then looked at Chu Yunting, her tone slightly reproachful, "What I meant was for you to scare her, not just leave her there like that."

It was really just a playful scolding; there was no blame whatsoever.

Although Chu Yunting misunderstood her meaning, everything he did was for her own good. He had already taken action, so it would be inhuman of him to pour cold water on her.

To everyone's surprise, Chu Yunting said, "I didn't misunderstand. I did it on purpose. She's obviously spoiled by her family. She's never experienced setbacks. She likes to take advantage of others, so someone has to teach her a lesson and make her realize who she really is."

It's as if every family spoils its children.

Who is he? He's never listened to any of those high-society girls in Beijing. This Li Fangfang thinks she can control him with just a few words? Dream on!

Chen Ping glared at him, "What if something happens to her alone..."

She was also quite disgusted. Was it really necessary for kind-hearted people to be so passive and unable to handle interpersonal relationships with a sense of justice and righteous indignation?

She clearly didn't want to care about that annoying Li Fangfang at all, but now she has to worry about her safety.

That's a serious illness!

She was despising herself, while Chu Yunting comforted her:

“This has nothing to do with you. Besides, she won’t get into any trouble. There’s a direct bus from the train station to the guesthouse. She can find it as long as she’s not stupid.”

Since it was clearly Li Fangfang who caused the trouble first, Chen Ping couldn't bear the psychological burden when punishing the bad guys, so Chu Yunting said some things that were half true and half false.

Chen Ping: "Really?"

"Of course, we'll arrive a little earlier than her at most."

Chu Yunting spoke as if it were the truth, and Chen Ping believed him after only a moment's hesitation.

"Alright, let's hurry to the guesthouse. I miss Chu Xin, and I have so much to say to her."

Chu Yunting chuckled and pressed the accelerator down a little more.

When they arrived at the guesthouse, Director Ke had already arranged accommodations for everyone. Since they weren't familiar with Chu Xin, they invited her to sit with them, but she declined, so they didn't insist.

Chu Xin remained waiting in the car.

She only opened the car door and got out when she saw Chu Yunting drive up.

Upon noticing the obviously incorrect number of people, questioning glances immediately fell upon Chu Yunting. Seeing him wink in a very funny way, they immediately understood what was going on.

Chen Ping remained calm and not particularly nervous, while her male colleague looked pale, as if he had been frightened.

Chen Ping didn't want to make things difficult for the others, so she said, "Brother Wang, you go up first. My friend and I still have something to talk about."

The male colleague, who was called Brother Wang, rushed into the guesthouse as if he had been granted a pardon, eager to tell Director Ke that Li Fangfang had been left behind, and even forgot to thank Chu Yunting.

Chu Xin's eyelids twitched. "Why are you so scared? Chu Yunting, you didn't hit that woman, did you?"

"How could that be? Her antics weren't enough for me to handle. It's just that she's too pretentious. Our class isn't high enough to match hers, so I didn't want to make a fool of myself and came over first."

Chu Xin chuckled; he had to be careful what he said.

Of course, she was just asking casually and didn't intend to stand up for anyone. She quickly forgot about Li Fangfang after just a few words.

Then she looked at Chen Ping and asked, "My aunt is very happy that you've come to Kyoto. She's been waiting to see you. So, would you like to come to our house, or would you like to find somewhere for everyone to meet?"

Chen Ping at least had the awareness of being a girlfriend, and she had expected this to happen when she came. Now that she was suddenly asked about it, she immediately became nervous.

After taking a deep breath, she said, "Our visit and study is scheduled to begin tomorrow morning and last for about a week. We'll probably be quite busy during this period, and I can't completely control the timing. Alternatively, we could schedule it after the study is over. I'll go even if it means going back a day later."

How about I visit Auntie this afternoon or around dinner time?

After hearing her words, Chu Xin looked at Chu Yunting with a hint of sympathy. "Then let's have dinner together tonight. Your timing is unfortunate; Chu Yunting has a mission to take on in the next day or two and can't stay in Kyoto for long."

And the return date is still undetermined.

"Oh dear, Xiao Chu, why do you have to bring up such a sad topic at a time like this? Let me have a little more fun, even if it's just for a second!"

Chu Yunting really wanted to cry. He hadn't even had a moment to enjoy their time together before he had to face being separated from her again.

Chu Xin shrugged. "There's nothing I can do. I value reality more. The sooner we make things clear, the better we can deal with the upcoming schedule."

After saying that, she looked at Chen Ping and said, "Also, don't be nervous. You probably know about our family. Right now, there are only four of us in Kyoto: me, Chu Yunting, my grandfather, and my aunt. Other relatives are not important, so just be yourself and don't feel pressured."

After saying that, Chu Xin rubbed her forehead. She was really becoming more and more capable, and she couldn't help but worry about Chu Yunting's affairs.

Is this a side effect of prolonged exposure to normal human society?
