The Timid Young Master and The Cold Assassin 5

How could he have such rotten luck on his first day of school? Li Zhang's face was red from frustration.

Although he wasn't feeling too happy about this, Li Zhang quickly regained his composure upon realizing that this was nothing compared to the insults he received from the crap armies in his previous life.

If they are going to beat him, then they should just get it done with.

The men advance toward him and push him to the ground. As they were tearing his uniform apart, Li Zhang's soul left his body. It was over. These people didn't plan to hit him, but rather to humiliate him.

They wanted to make him feel bad in every possible way.

And then... A strong hand grabbed his shoulder and pulled him up. He didn't have enough strength to lift his head; instead, he let himself be pushed against the wall.

His face was pressed against the cold stone and he couldn't see a thing.

"Brother we have nothing to lose. Look at his fair skin, let's just take the picture and then play with him. That way we'll get more shots in different situations."

"These photos look good so far, we just need a few more."

After resisting for a long time, he was both physically and mentally exhausted. After the men were done ripping his shirt, they took off his pants and only the white underwear was left on him. More pictures were taken. Then the same thing happened.

The same thing.

Over and over again, until his legs and back were hurting and everything hurt, including his heart. They were hitting him so hard. Li Zhang tried to pull his hair to cover himself but his hands were restrained. He heard a clicking sound. He felt the same kind of sensation as before. He gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.

He heard footsteps approaching his direction.

"Are you fucking retarded?" Another guy asked as he saw how hard they were hitting Li Zhang with their fists.

When Li Zhang heard footsteps approaching his direction. His whole body tensed up. He didn't want to look up anymore, so all he did was keep his gaze down. There was nothing he could say, he didn't even dare to breathe. All he could hear was the sound of fighting and his heartbeat inside his chest.

Suddenly the person in front of him released his wrists.  Before his mind registered what just happened, his arms felt useless at his sides. He kept on watching the ground, waiting for the next kick or punch or worse.

However, what he got wasn't any kicks or punches and that made him lift his head and open his eyes. A warm hand touched the side of his face, "Are you okay?" The voice asked softly in his ear. The man still had a gentle expression and his hand wasn't moving anymore. The man's voice sounded sweet and calming. However, it only fueled Li Zhang's anxiety.

If only the man could stop touching him and kick him away, he could escape. If only he could stop being touched by strangers...

"I... I'm okay... Thank you." He answered nervously

The boy laughed and shook his head. "I wouldn't have help if my cousin didn't tell me to." He pointed to the side where another boy was standing.

At this moment, Li Zhang was still in shock and hadn't woken up yet. Upon raising his head to see who it was, Li Zhang couldn't believe it was this person that came to his rescue. "Liu Cheng?"

The person who came to his rescue is Liu Cheng, which made Li Zhang very grateful.

Li Zhang has a pair of bright, clear, crystal blue eyes. So when they were filled with tears, it looked really seductive. Liu Cheng felt his heart skip a beat but he quickly ignored the strange feeling and said coldly: "If you're ok, then go home."

Li Zhang never thought that the next interaction with his capture target would be a situation like this. He was angry and embarrassed at the same time.

[Ding, the target favorable value decreases by -5. The current affection level is -15. The storyline has progressed to 5%. Continue to work hard.]

Li Zhang didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard the system comforting words. He turns around to thank Liu Cheng but the other person has already left: "I…" 

Liu Hang also followed and held Liu Cheng's arm, "Cousin, if you want to save that person, you could have just done it yourself, why drag me into it?"

"Let's go, he's not worth the effort." Liu Cheng took his arm away

Someone not important and you save them, this makes Liu Hang more curious: "This is the first time you save someone other than that annoying girl. Tell me, who is he?"

"You're so noisy." Liu Cheng frowned

"Oh, if you don't want to tell me, I'll find out for myself."

Liu Cheng and Liu Hang are cousins. Liu Hang is Liu Cheng's father, younger brother, son. In the whole family, only Liu Hang is closer to Liu Cheng. Because Liu Cheng is ruthless and hard to get along with, the other cousins stay away from him. The old master of the Liu family was blessed to have seven sons and two daughters. All nine children have their children, making the Liu family bigger and bigger. The Liu family has four branches. The old master Liu's father had four male children back then and each of these children has their own family. Therefore, the Liu family was divided into branches because of the overwhelming numbers. Since old master Liu is the third of his father, his branch is named the third branch. Old master Liu's real name is Liu Ling.

Li Zhang didn't know what to do with his messed up clothes, he could only stand still awkwardly. Anyone who sees him like this will have the wrong idea.

Five minutes later, the butler finally found him and quickly carried him to the car. It was after he gave him his coat before he asked: "Young master, why is your uniform ripped apart."

Li Zhang finally found his backbone. The tears he had held back collapsed all at once. He held back his voice, unwilling to let out a sound as he cried. He said while sobbing: ``Uncle Zhu, I'm not a pervert, I'm not…"

Butler Zhu was shocked upon hearing such an accusation. Li Zhang was only fifteen years old, how could he have thought that? What makes him think like that?

It must've been scary for him to see so many guys harassing him at school.  He must've felt helpless. But he shouldn't be feeling guilty, he wasn't doing anything wrong, he was simply defending himself.

Li Zhang was choked with sobs. He tried to hold back his tears as he began to talk. "Uncle Zhu, I decided to take a walk while waiting for you. They came out of nowhere, suddenly blocking my way and dragging me off the road. they… they said someone paid them to… to teach me a lesson. Then they… they ripped my clothes and took pictures of me. Why didn't they just hit me? Why do they have to humiliate me?"

Li Zhang's whole body was shaking in anger: "Uncle Zhu, how could they do this to me? They are going to put that humiliating photo on the Internet. Now… Now no one would want me anymore. What did I do to them? Haven't I been obedient enough? I-I never said bad words to anyone, yet… yet they won't leave me alone. Uncle Zhu, I didn't provoke them…"

"Uncle Zhu believes you." Butler Zhu sighed, "Young master, calm down. They won't post the picture. I'll make sure of it." Butler Zhu try to assure him a few times but it didn't work

Because Li Zhang didn't seem to hear that, he was buried in his own sorrow.

"Why, why would they do this to me? Why won't they leave me alone? Why are they still hunting me even when I'm hiding so far away? Now everyone would think I'm a pervert. I'm not… I didn't do anything."

"Help me. Wu… I can't bear it anymore. Wu… Wu … they are taking everything from me… what do I do? I'm so tired…" He kept crying helplessly and numbing till he fell asleep.

Seems like the young master has been hit really hard this time. Butler promised to do anything it takes to stop that photo from being posted.

When they arrived home, the butler carried the sleeping young master inside under the curious glance of the servants.
