Chapter 149: Love Nest (4)
Translator: Sissy That Walk
He Bai put his phone away and signaled his roommates to ask for their opinions on his proposal. After getting a positive reply, he went to the lawyer sent by Di Qiuhe and told him about his thoughts. Then, he simply went back with his roommates, unwilling to stay and watch that shitty situation develop further.
One day later, after much negotiation, a compromised consensus was reached. Huang Wei was to be punished for his burglary and the amount of indemnity was four times the original value of the computer. As for Di Xiasong, they agreed to settle the matter in private and Huang Du and the Qins would pay double for the lost photos. On top of that, Di Xiasong was to apologize to He Bai in person and took back the screenshots.
No one knew what Di Qiuhe said to Di Bian, but Di Bian wired the full amount of compensation over without receiving any instructions from the Qins. Afterwards, being accompanied by Lawyer Wang, Di Xiasong apologized to He Bai in person in a restaurant near the school.
This is the first time He Bai met this famed second master of the Di family. He Bai had always been curious about what Di Bian looked like. But when He Bai saw him for the first time, he felt disappointed. Di Bian looked nothing like what he had pictured him in his mind, and instead he seemed just another narcissist, presumptuous moron.
“I am sorry,” said Di Xiasong with a gloomy face. He added, “you might have fooled others, but you can’t fool yourself. I guess birds of a feather indeed flock together. He Bai, you are just like my brother, a pretentious, greedy bastard.”
“Well, beats a narcissist loser who tried to screw someone and ended up costing his parents a fortune.” He Bai slowly replied. He looked at that young face and smiled, “Kido, take it from me. You are a mommy’s good boy. Why don’t you stay that way and behave yourself. Schemes and deceptions don’t suit you. You are simply too young for all these.”
“You!” Di Xiasong, being an impulsive young man, couldn’t held back his anger and wanted to throw some tantrums before Lawyer Wang held him down by threatening, “The president said you are not his only son and that he might likely have another one going forward. Second master, I beseech you. Think before you act.”
The color on Di Xiasong’s face turned and he snorted before leaving.
The door of the room was slam shut. As if he didn’t hear anything, Lawyer Wang poured a cup of tea for the composed He Bai and said in a flattering tone, “Your forbearance does you credit, Mr. He. The president said that he loves each of his sons equally and he definitely does not have a preference. As for the magazine cover, it was because of the misconduct of one of our company-sponsored actor and the president has already had that actor reprimanded to ensure that it won’t happen the next time.”
He Bai didn’t buy any of those words coming out of Di Bian, he simply turned over the photos and then said a few courteous words before quickly taking his leave.
Back into the dormitory, He Bai’s roommates filled him in on the development of the burglary. They told him how Huang Wei was publicly reprimanded and expelled from the school. Whatever would happen to Huang Wei was entirely up to the law, and was no longer any of the school’s concern.
In order to console them, the university decided to give them all kinds of support and compensation.
