As the silver needle penetrated Lu Chao's neck, his face visibly turned purple.
Soon after, Lu Chao, lying on the ground, clutched his neck and struggled to breathe heavily.
No matter how hard he tried, he constantly felt as if he couldn't catch his breath.
He reached out to Qin Chuan in desperation, his eyes filled with terror: "Help... help me, I... I don't want to die..."
At this moment, Lu Chao seemed like a drowning man, with Qin Chuan as his last hope for salvation.
However, Qin Chuan stood still, unmoved: "Speak! Did you post the rumors about Wen Yaxin?"
Utterly terrified, Lu Chao couldn't even think of denying it, quickly replied: "Yes... yes, I found someone to post it, and I provided the photos."
"Where's the evidence?" Qin Chuan continued questioning.
"In... in my phone, the chat records and the transaction records with the person who posted are all in there."
Desperate to live, Lu Chao could only offer up his incriminating evidence.
Qin Chuan picked up his phone and glanced at the evidence Lu Chao revealed, his face showing satisfaction.
"Help... help me... you promised to save me."
Seeing that Qin Chuan showed no intention of removing the needle even after acquiring the evidence, Lu Chao panicked completely.
At this moment, he was feeling the threat of death.
The sensation of suffocation was gradually eroding his sanity.
He couldn't care about anything else, he just wanted to survive.
But facing his plea, Qin Chuan showed no intention of helping.
"Qin... Qin Chuan, murder leads to jail; it's not worth it for a wretch like me, it's not worth it." Lu Chao pleaded desperately, even degrading himself in hopes that Qin Chuan would help.
Yet Qin Chuan remained unmoved and leisurely sat down on the curbside.
In distress, Lu Chao dragged his aching body and crawled to Qin Chuan: "I was wrong, it's my fault, I was blind, but I don't want to die, I really don't want to die…"
Seeing Lu Chao's snot and tears flowing together, Qin Chuan kicked him away, looking contemptuous.
But Lu Chao, desperate to live, could not care about dignity or face.
He only wanted to keep living.
Once again he crawled towards Qin Chuan.
But the result was the same; Qin Chuan kicked him away once more.
"Young Master Lu, calm down, you're fine, you won't die."
At this moment, one of Lu Chao's roommates forced himself up despite the pain and said: "You're not in any real trouble now, haven't you noticed?"
Lu Chao froze, suddenly coming to his senses.
Indeed, the suffocation was still there, but he was okay.
A normal person could hold their breath for a few minutes, but under such terror, they definitely wouldn't last this long.
Which means, if it were true suffocation, he would've been gone already.
He wouldn't die!
He can't die!
All of it was Qin Chuan's doing!
Lu Chao, realizing this, felt humiliated and immediately stretched his neck towards his roommate, asking him to pull out the silver needle.
Soon, the silver needles in the four of them were removed one by one.
Their demeanor returned to normal.
However, due to the recent lesson, Lu Chao's three roommates looked at Qin Chuan with extreme caution, no longer daring to act rashly.
Lu Chao, however, relied on Wen Jianrong's backing and remained undeterred: "Damn it! Give my phone back!"
"Want it?"
Qin Chuan picked up Lu Chao's phone and shook it: "Come and take it, if you have the guts."
"You!"
Lu Chao was momentarily speechless, his face twisted in pent-up frustration.
Just when he had no way out, a stern voice suddenly echoed behind them.
Wen Jianrong appeared on the scene with several teachers and the on-duty doctor from the infirmary.
Seeing the six or seven security guards lying on the ground, his anger reached its peak.
"What is going on here, can someone give me an explanation, who did this!"
Wen Jianrong's face was red, his eyes bulged like brass bells.
Having the school's security beaten up like this was a serious campus safety incident.
Even under normal circumstances, if something like this happened at school, he couldn't avoid receiving a scolding from his superiors.
Especially during such crucial times.
Communication University had been plagued with incidents one after another, would he still even be a principal?
This was like disturbing a tiger on its territory, asking for trouble!
He must find the perpetrator, punish them legally, and send them to jail.
Upon hearing Wen Jianrong's voice, Lu Chao and his group had faces filled with delight, promptly leaving the curbside to run towards Wen Jianrong.
"Uncle Wen, finally you're here, if you hadn't come, we would've been beaten to death," Lu Chao complained first.
The other three roommates also feigned victimhood, crying: "Principal, our parents paid for us to study, not to be hit."
"We've grown this much, never facing such grievances. I thought Communication University was a good school, but ended up being bullied here; it's simply campus bullying."
"Principal, you must stand up for us. If such misconduct is allowed to continue, I truly don't dare return to this school."
Listening to Lu Chao and the others' tearful complaints, Wen Jianrong's anger rose to its peak.
Of course, he was well aware of Lu Chao and his group's usual behavior.
However, in the past, those minor troubles he could overlook.
Most likely, they stirred up trouble today and provoked a tough one.
But regardless, since the school's security was involved, the other side shouldn't have retaliated, let alone beat the school's security guards like this.
This matter concerned the dignity of Communication University and couldn't be brushed aside lightly.
"Where's the person? Who did this, which grade is the student in, this is preposterous!"
Infuriated, Wen Jianrong declared resolutely: "Don't worry, the perpetrator will definitely be severely punished."
Hearing these words, Lu Chao and his group gleamed with schadenfreude.
Immediately, Lu Chao eagerly pointed to Qin Chuan sitting on the curbside: "Uncle Wen, it was that guy who beat up people."
"Hmm!"
Wen Jianrong nodded heavily and then looked in the direction Lu Chao indicated.
Lu Chao didn't relent, smearing dirt: "Uncle Wen, look at that guy, even after beating up people, he's sitting there with an air of superiority, showing no remorse at all; he's simply too arrogant."
The three roommates chimed in: "Yes, Principal, that guy doesn't even regard our Communication University."
"Severe punishment! We must severely punish him, call the police and have him arrested."
"People like him won't understand their own insignificance unless they spend a few days in jail. Principal, call the police quickly."
