Does she think that if she just refuses to admit it that he won't be able to find out?

Yin Shaojie stared coldly at her.

The intense pressure almost took over Han Xue'er. Still, she said nothing. She lowered her head and kept silent.

"Very good." Yin Shaojie pursed his slender lips, looking indifferent. The depth in his gaze kept his thoughts well hidden.

His gaze shifted from her to the other girls. Suddenly, he ordered, "Kneel! All of you!"

The girls looked at him, stunned.

The two girls who had been punished were dragged back to their original positions.

Yin Shaojie said gravely, "I want you all to walk on your knees all the way to the school's clinic and apologize to Mu Xiaoxiao!"

The girls were stunned as they stared with eyes widened, yet not a single one dared to speak against him.

At this moment, one of the girls knelt down. In response, the other girls followed suit and hurried onto their knees.

Only Han Xue'er was left standing. She was still resisting and biting on her lips, which had turned pale.

Seeing that Yin Shaojie had not forced her to admit, she thought that he would not treat her too harshly given her status— she was, after all, the wealthy daughter of the Han's corporation. She had also heard from her father that their family had businesses with the Yin family.

Perhaps, Yin Shaojie was taking into consideration the relationship between the two families?

Han Xue'er felt a little delighted. In any case, I'm different from the others, and Yin Shaojie wouldn't dare to treat me badly.

However, a pair of long legs walked towards her.

Han Xue'er saw it and instinctively raised her head. When she looked up to see Yin Shaojie's expression, her heart trembled.

He… smiled. But his smile was terrifying.

"Y-young Master Jie…" she trembled as she called out in pitiful voice in an attempt to gain his pity.

However, she had miscalculated. Yin Shaojie could only feel tenderness towards Mu Xiaoxiao. The cold, severe expression staring at her was unmoved.

Yin Shaojie looked cruel as he smiled and said, "You don't want to kneel? You have some spine! I just don't know… whether you'll still have any spine left when your family is ruined? How long do you think it would take for me to collapse the Han's corporation?"

Han Xue'er looked at him, shaking. Her whole body seemed to have been drained of blood as she shuddered.

At this moment, she thought that the man before her was a demon.

She knew that he dared to do it, and he would do it for real!

Moreover, with the Yin family's power, Yin Shaojie would only need a short time to collapse a corporation if he wanted to.

Han Xue'er turned pale. She fell on her knees with a loud pop, and tears rolled down her cheeks miserably.

"Good girl." Yin Shaojie satanically smiled.

The onlookers were stupefied. Though it was known that Yin Shaojie had the greatest power at Shangde, no one could imagine that Young Master Jie would start a war over one girl.

With this, it was clear to everyone that Young Master Jie held Mu Xiaoxiao in high regards.

Yin Shaojie turned around and walked towards the school's clinic.

Following behind him were more than ten girls on their knees.

The scene was simply comical. There were several girls who were disapproving of Han Xue'er's usual arrogance. Han Xue'er had been tyrannically abusing others by leveraging her position as the president of Young Master Jie's fan club. Thus, the girls secretly laughed as they saw her in such a sorry state.

The guys were mostly there for the show.

Everyone went along to the school's clinic in anticipation for the events that would ensue.
