"What do you think you're doing!"
Seeing them blocking her way, Mia Chen’s face immediately changed.
"What are we doing? What do you think we could do?"
The man sneered, "I already told you, being noticed by our young master is your good fortune!"
Don't be so ungrateful when someone gives you a chance!
As he spoke, he reached out, trying to grab Mia Chen’s hand.
"What are you trying to do!"
"Let go!"
Mia Chen and the other two girls’ faces changed at the same time.
They shouted, faces full of panic.
After all, they were just students—none of them had ever faced anything like this before.
And besides, they were all girls—when it came to facing these men, they didn’t have the slightest ability to fight back.
Plenty of people sitting nearby watched the whole scene, acting like it was just entertainment.
They looked at Mia Chen and her friends, and you could see the sympathy in their eyes.
But nobody stepped up to help.
Those three guys? You could tell at a glance they were the type who always stirred up trouble.
Not only that, judging by the way they talked—so cocky, so fearless—they clearly had some kind of special backing.
Most people around just figured, 'better stay out of it,' and chose to watch from the sidelines.
"Mimi and the others look like they're in trouble!"
Emily Yi heard the commotion, turned her head, saw Mia Chen and the others, her face changed instantly, and she stood up right away.
"Let's go check it out!"
The other guys heard this and all got up, too.
Victor Zhou followed along as well.
"What do you think you're doing? Let go of them!"
Emily Yi rushed closer, saw Mia Chen and her friends being grabbed, her face changed, shouted out, and ran up to try to pull them away.
"Another one? Sure, bring it on."
The guy freed up one hand, grabbed Emily Yi’s wrist with a single motion, holding her firmly.
He started dragging Emily Yi and the others toward that direction, totally ignoring everyone else’s stares.
"Hey, man, isn’t this a bit much? Can’t you just let go?"
The boys had rushed over full of 'hero saves beauty' intentions, but seeing the three guys up close—big, burly, and obviously tough—they instantly lost their nerve.
The boys just stood there, not knowing what to do.
Our young master just wants your friends to come over and have some fun. What, you still want me to let go?
The man gripping Mia Chen's arm raised an eyebrow. "You guys should just go back to your seats and mind your own business. Don't stick your noses in where they don't belong."
Besides, being chosen by our young master is something your friend should be proud of!
His voice wasn't quiet at all, and there was a clear threat in his tone.
"Uh..."
One of the boys wanted to say something more.
But all three men took a step forward, glaring at him with fierce eyes, and the boys immediately turned pale.
Their arms and thighs were way thicker than any of the students'.
There was no way a bunch of students like them could go up against these guys and their thuggish aura.
That overwhelming intimidation left them all frozen in place.
"Let her go."
While the other boys kept silent,
Victor Zhou suddenly stepped forward.
He reached out, trying to pull Mia Chen back.
But as soon as he reached out, one of the men grabbed his hand.
"What, trying to play hero?"
The man looked at Victor Zhou, half-smiling, half-mocking.
"Victor!" Mia Chen looked at Victor Zhou, surprised.
Her pretty face, a little pale, was full of astonishment.
With all the other boys staying quiet, Victor Zhou actually stepped up.
In Mia Chen's mind, Victor had always been the bookworm type, a bit timid and shy.
She never expected he'd stand up for her at a moment like this.
"What you're doing is wrong!"
Victor Zhou, face tense, shouted, "Let her go!"
He shouted again.
"Victor..."
Seeing Victor Zhou's determined look, Mia Chen felt a bit moved.
"You want me to let her go? Fine."
The man didn't seem in any hurry at all.
