The School Beauty’s Super Rogue

"This painting captures our banquet today! Please see if there’s anything unsatisfactory!"

Having completed his masterpiece, Wei Zhongxun seemed in high spirits, scanning everyone with a proud smile.

When his gaze inadvertently fell on Qin Hao’s face, it turned mischievous.

The crowd was amazed at the scene depicted in the painting.

"Such an exquisite piece, how could there be anything unsatisfactory?"

"On the contrary, Brother Wei’s skill is superb, even making me look much more handsome in the painting."

"Brother Wei’s painting skills are profound, no longer bound to the superficial, this painting fully captures the joyful atmosphere of today’s banquet."

The people were full of praise, and the arrogance on Wei Zhongxun’s face was never-ending as he listened.

However, Lei Xiuzhu soon exclaimed in surprise, "Why is there a pig in the painting?"

At this, everyone noticed that in the corner of the painting, there seemed to be a pig-like creature sitting cross-legged in front of the table.

Pigs are inherently comical, and the pig in the painting crossing its legs like a person made it even more humorous.

Upon noticing this, people began to chuckle secretly.

"Giggle! It’s so cute!"

"What’s cute about it? It’s obviously silly!"

"But we don’t even have a pig here! What’s the deal with this pig?"

People started discussing, observing the hall closely.

The positions in the painting are meticulously placed, each corresponding to a real-life person.

When everyone’s gaze fell on Qin Hao, they all suddenly understood the pig was meant to be Qin Hao!

Soon, those who took pleasure in others’ misfortune couldn’t help but laugh.

"Do you all think my depiction of this pig is accurate?"

While everyone was in a mix of emotions, Wei Zhongxun asked with a smile.

Before fully understanding the situation, people hesitated to speak.

But Lei Xiuzhu stood up, "Wei Zhongxun, while it’s wrong to use painting to insult others, I think there’s some truth to it!"

Upon hearing this, Wei Zhongxun’s eyes lit up, amazed that even the stubborn princess was siding with him?

Then there’s nothing to fear!

He instinctively asked, "Why do you say that, Senior Sister Lei?"

"Hmph!"

Lei Xiuzhu turned towards Qin Hao with some annoyance, "Some people come to gatherings without a proper attitude. Even before the banquet starts, they’re eating and drinking, and only continue afterwards. Isn’t that typical pig behavior?"

"Hahaha! That’s quite true!" Wei Zhongxun laughed exaggeratedly, then looked at Qin Hao with extreme disdain: "Pigsie Qin Hao, what do you have to say?"

From beginning to end, Qin Hao’s expression remained calm.

To him, this insult seemed non-existent.

The crowd was somewhat surprised by this.

Why isn’t this Qin Hao getting angry?

Could he be spineless?

"No comment." Qin Hao casually remarked, picking up a calla lily from the table, placing it in his mouth and ate it blankly.

No comment?

Qin Hao’s reaction left everyone even more surprised.

Does this person really not care at all?

"Hey! Truly a waste!" Despite having insulted Qin Hao, without seeing him boil with anger, Wei Zhongxun was somewhat vexed. He said: "Everyone here is an esteemed talent. Qin Hao, with your cowardice, how dare you attend the gathering?"

Qin Hao remained silent, focused intently on eating.

Seeing this, Lei Xiuzhu shook her head disdainfully: "These newcomers nowadays are so spineless, being insulted without retaliating! If it were me, I’d fight back even if I couldn’t win!"

Nearby, Wang Yufei looked at Qin Hao with a complex expression, refraining from passing judgment.

"Wei Zhongxun, is your performance over?"

At this moment, Su Lingfeng stood up to ask.

He pretended to inquire, but was actually trying to mediate and quell the conflict.

Qin Hao was someone he brought, so naturally, he didn’t want to see Qin Hao humiliated.

"Hmph! Su Lingfeng, aren’t you trying to steal the spotlight! Even Brother Hu hasn’t said anything. Why are you intervening?"

Wei Zhongxun thought he had Lei Xiuzhu backing him, so he feared nothing.

He dared not humiliate Su Lingfeng but was willing to spar.

"Don’t overstep," said Su Lingfeng, showing rare displeasure.

"Su Lingfeng, even if you enjoy being sanctimonious, use it on the right person. Qin Hao is a waste; why are you helping him!"

Wei Zhongxun was getting irritated.

"That’s my concern." Su Lingfeng’s expression cooled, showing no signs of backing down.

"Gentlemen." Seeing the situation about to escalate, Hu Boyong stood up, chiming in: "Please, give me some respect! Let’s not argue over this matter, shall we?"

"I’ll give Brother Hu some face!"

Given an out, Wei Zhongxun backed down without hesitation. Kidding, while he thought highly of himself, he knew he was still somewhat inferior to Su Lingfeng.

Better to avoid confrontation when possible.

"Apologies for the trouble, Brother Hu!"

Su Lingfeng cupped his hands to apologize, then calmly returned to his seat.

The matter seemed resolved, yet people’s emotions remained unsettled.

"Wei Zhongxun seems to really dislike Qin Hao, doesn’t he?"

"Yes, but what’s with Su Lingfeng helping Qin Hao?"

"Su Lingfeng is known for his wide connections and excellent rapport with fellow inner sect disciples. How do you think that’s achieved? It’s because he enjoys helping others!"

"True! But isn’t Qin Hao too pathetic? He doesn’t even stand up for himself when bullied."

"Who knows? Maybe newcomers these days are just too timid!"

Hearing the chatter around her, Lei Xiuzhu felt irritated. After all, she wanted to be the main character of the banquet, but everyone was discussing Qin Hao and Wei Zhongxun, how absurd was that?

She immediately furrowed her brow and ordered, "Wang Yufei, serve more wine to the guests!"

After several performances, people were eagerly drinking, with many empty glasses in front of them.

Lei Xiuzhu’s gesture won much approval.

Wang Yufei did not rush to stand but, after some internal struggle, chose to comply.

She lifted the jug and poured wine for people at nearby tables.

Passing by Qin Hao and Su Lingfeng’s seats, she was pouring wine for Su Lingfeng.

"Is fortune really more important than dignity?"

At this, a seemingly rhetorical question came, and Wang Yufei looked up, her beautiful eyes watching Qin Hao, finally whispering, "You have no right to lecture me; at least I live happier than you, with a higher status."

"What makes you think so?" Qin Hao put down the cup, lightly moving his lips.

"You think I’m just a servant. Little do you know, my position is coveted by many. People would only envy me serving Lei Xiuzhu, not look down on me like they do you."

Wang Yufei’s voice grew louder, carrying a hint of defiance.

"Do you look down on me?" Qin Hao’s question left Wang Yufei stunned.
