Chapter 1250


    Hearing Fade'' s bold promation, Yankee recalled that Fade really did mention what he said


    earlier. However, she ignored them and thought that he was boasting. Now, however, she realized


    that his words were probably not far from the truth.


    For a moment, Yankee felt that Joey''s brother was really mysterious.


    While Yankee was still pondering in her mind, Joey handed over the food and said with a smile,


    "Yankee, don''t space out. Hurry up and eat. Otherwise, all the good food will be eaten by my


    brother."


    "Hey Joey, how can you say that? You are the one who finished the dishes, okay?" Fadeughed in


    retort.


    The three peopleughed and ate happily. The atmosphere was rxed and lively, and they didn''t


    take what happened with Ladarius seriously at all.


    However, not long after, a person walked towards them and said, "Hey Joey, what a coincidence.


    We meet again."


    Hearing the voice, the three of them raised their heads and looked at the person who was talking


    to them.


    Immediately, they found out that this person was an acquaintance. It was Mr. Wild, Wilton Chung,


    who confessed his love to Joey at school earlier.


    Wilton sported luxurious, branded clothes as usual and he wore a confident, proud expression on


    his face.


    Seeing this, Joey frowned slightly and immediately said, "Wilton, what are you doing here?"


    Wilton smiled faintly and said, "Joey, I''m here to express my feelings for you. I..."


    "Stop..." Joey interrupted Wilton''s words and spoke, "I have already given you a chance during the


    morning event earlier. Don''t pull this with me now. Besides, I already have someone I like and the


    person is not you. I''m sorry!"


    After saying that, Joey embraced Yankee beside her and kissed her on the cheek, showing the


    intimacy between them. Yankee yed along with her and hugged Joey back. She said, "Joey


    belongs to me. We are in love with each other. Do you understand?"


    They did this on purpose to provoke Wilton. However, contrary to their expectations, Wilton merely


    laughed it off and said, "Joey, I have already asked someone to investigate this. This is Yankee, a


    third year student of the department of archeology. She is your senior and roommate."


    "Yankee had a boyfriend before. Although they broke up after a while, I can be sure that Yankee is


    not homosexual. So Joey, this trick of yours will not work on me anymore."


    Hearing this, Joey and Yankee''s faces soured simultaneously. They said unhappily, "You


    investigated us?"


    Wilton said, "I meant no harm. I just want to..."


    Joey waved her hand in frustration to interrupt Wilton and said, "I don''t care if you have any bad


    intentions, but your behavior is sick enough for me. I can tell you that I am certainly not interested in


    you. Besides, you and I will never be together. You''d better give up now!"


    Upon hearing this, Wilton''s expression darkened. His handsome and arrogant face clouded over


    and his anger was on the verge of breaking forth.


    But then, he still held back his anger, turned his eyes to Fade and changed the topic. "Joey, you are


    in a bad mood today. This is not a good time for confessions and we can do this another day."


    "However, there''s another thing that I am afraid might get you into trouble, Joey!" Wilton purposely


    mentioned it like that as if he was going to reveal a secret.


    However, Joey did not give him a chance and uttered, "There''s no need to talk about it another day,


    and I repeat. Me, and you, we are never going to be together. It is impossible. Besides, I have zero


    interest in the matter you are about to tell me. Get out of my sight!"


    "Uh, this..." Wilton was speechless. After a moment of silence, he had no choice but to speak up,


    "Joey, I''m doing this for your safety!"


    "You know what? Ladarius, the man you just fought, is not easy to deal with." Wilton said.


    "What''s so special about him? He was so weak that he just got his a*s kicked by my brother in a


    single move," Joey said with disdain.


    Wilton quickly added, "Joey, this is not a one-on-one fight. Don''t you know that Ladarius is a disciple


    of the Szeto Academy? They won''t let you off the hook easily if you offend their disciples."


    Fade snorted coldly and said, "Are the students from the Szeto Academy that strong?"


    "This is not a matter of who''s stronger, but a matter of life and death." Wilton looked at Fade and


    said in a serious voice, "The Szeto Academy was established in Capital City half a year ago. They


    expanded quickly and produced a group of young, powerful martial artists and became famous


    within the circle of martial artists in


    Capital City."


    "Moreover, the teachers and students of the Szeto Academy are known for their unity. If someone


    offends anyone from the Academy, almost all the students in the Academy will storm out to take


    revenge on them."


    "This kind of pressure is not something even the rich businesses andrge families of Capital City


    can withstand, let alone ordinary people. After all, even though they have their riches, they stillck


    the means to deal with these martial artists from the Szeto Academy."

    "Therefore, almost all rich businessmen and big families in the Capital City try to stay on the good


    side of the Szeto Academy. It has even gotten to the point that they’d send their family members


    and rtives to the Szeto Academy to learn martial arts, just to build up a good rapport with them."


    "You can even say that by offending a person from the Szeto Academy, it is equivalent to offending


    the entirety of the Szeto Academy and the patrons behind them."


    After that, Wilton turned to look at Fade as if he was anticipating a good drama. He said, "Now, do


    you know how serious this matter is?"


    The three of them fell silent for a moment.


    Yankee grabbed onto Joey''s arm tightly, worry apparent on her features. Joey and Fade, however,


    looked at each other calmly like it was not a big deal.


    Seeing this, Wilton thought that he had the trio frightened within an inch of their life. He immediately


    smiled at Joey and said, "Joey, although the Szeto Academy is powerful and has strong


    connections with those in power, the rich businessmen and families who patronize them actually


    belong to the second-ss."


    "The real big families in the Capital City, such as the Luo family and the Chung family, don''t actually


    consider the Szeto Academy a big deal."


    "So Joey, if you need my help, I can ask the elders of my family to settle this matter with the Szeto


    Academy amicably." After that, Wilton looked at Joey with a proud expression, hoping to receive a


    favorable reply from her.


    After all, he had spent so much timeying the groundwork, highlighting the power of the Szeto


    Academy in order to show how powerful he was, all so that Joey woulde running to him for


    help. By ying the hero to a maiden in distress, he had no doubt that he would leave a good


    impression in Joey’s heart.


    Wilton''s n was indeed a good one. However, he obviously misjudged what Joey''s reaction would


    be.


    After listening to Wilton''s, Joey did not respond at all. She looked at Fade and asked lightly, "Fade,


    can you settle this?"


    Fade picked up some food and stuffed it into his mouth. He then replied gently, "Easy peasy; it''s just


    a piece of cake."
