Du Qingtang was born into a rural farming family. Her family was poor, and her father died young. To protect their few acres of land, her mother disguised her as a boy. Although Du Qingtang was a &...

Chapter 25025 Beautiful Counterattack

Du Qingtang was talking to Fu Wen, but Xie Guang rushed in like a blind man and bumped into her desk in full view of everyone.

The desk shook twice and was knocked over, hitting the ground with a "bang". The books, pens and ink on the desk flew straight towards Du Qingtang's face.

"Classmate Du!"

"careful!"

Fu Wen's pupils suddenly shrank, he grabbed Du Qingtang and quickly retreated.

Unfortunately, it was still a step too late.

The inkstone filled with ink was moving at a very fast speed and was about to hit Du Qingtang in the face.

"hiss--"

Everyone exclaimed and turned away, unable to bear to look.

"It's over, it's over. Du Qingtang will definitely be covered in ink."

"As the saying goes, fortune and misfortune go hand in hand. She was in the spotlight before, but now it's her turn to be unlucky."

"Could you please stop making sarcastic remarks? Back then, when Xie Guang was targeting you in every possible way, we weren't gloating over your misfortune like you are."

The student who made sarcastic remarks snorted coldly and kept silent.

Xie Tguang looked at his masterpiece and smiled with satisfaction.

He had underestimated the enemy before, and this time, Du Qingtang was caught off guard. There was no way he could escape this disaster!

However, the imagined scene of Du Qingtang panicking did not occur.

But Du Qingtang made a lightning-fast move, grabbed the handwritten copy of "Mencius", rolled up the book in a lightning speed, aimed at it, and then pulled it towards the inkstone.

“Bang!”

With a crisp sound, the inkstone flew in the opposite direction of Du Qingtang.

The inkstone that was getting closer and closer was reflected in Xie Guang's malicious pupils.

Xie Guang: “???”

Xie Guang: “!!!”

He tried to dodge but tripped over an overturned desk.

The inkstone was also very capable and hit Xie Guang in the face before he fell.

"ah!"

"ah!"

Two calls came in succession.

The first cry came from Xie Guang because he was in pain.

The second sound came from an unknown student, out of surprise.

Yes, it's a surprise.

Look at the corners of his mouth, they are almost reaching his ears.

Du Qingtang breathed a sigh of relief, still feeling a bit apprehensive. "That was a close call. I almost got hit. I just changed into my academy uniform this morning, and the blue and white color stained with ink is not easy to clean."

The reversal happened so quickly that everyone stared at Du Qingtang in a daze.

Looking at her face full of relief at having survived, and looking at her lowering her head to check if her school uniform was splattered with ink, she seemed to have not noticed at all that she had escaped, but the victim was someone else.

Everyone: “…”

Opposite Du Qingtang, Xie Guang's face and academy uniform were covered in ink, so black that the original color of his skin and fabric could no longer be seen.

Xie Guang was lying on the ground, his nostrils filled with the fresh scent of ink, and he was almost going crazy with anger.

"Du Qingtang!" He kicked the table leg and roared angrily.

"Huh?" Du Qingtang looked up, confused. When she saw Xie Guang's miserable appearance, she frowned in confusion, "Xie classmate, what's wrong with you?"

Xie Guang gritted his teeth: "It's all because of you!"

Du Qingtang pointed at himself and said, "Because of me?"

Xie Guang kicked the shattered inkstone hard on the ground: "You knocked the inkstone away and it hit me."

"So that's how it is. Classmate Xie, I didn't mean it. You won't blame me, will you?" Du Qingtang changed the subject. "But tracing back to the source, if it weren't for you, classmate Xie, knocking over my desk, I wouldn't have thrown the inkstone in self-defense."

Xie Guang: “…”

Du Qingtang squatted down and sighed, "I just bought this inkstone not long ago. I originally planned to use it for three to five years, but I didn't expect it to be sacrificed so soon."

She looked up and said as a matter of course, "Thank you, classmate. Since we are classmates, I will not hold you responsible. You only need to compensate me with the inkstone."

Xie Guang: “???”

What bullshit are you talking about?

I will compensate you for the inkstone, but who will compensate me for my clothes and mental damage?

"Oh, and here's this copy of Mencius. I copied it for five days without sleep. I usually take great care of it, not wanting it to get even a speck of dust on it. But now it's soaked in ink." Du Qingtang gently stroked the copy of Mencius, which she used as a weapon. "Thank you, classmate. Since you're going to copy the Four Books and Five Classics five times, you don't need my copy, right?"

Xie Guang: "What did you say?"

Du Qingtang: "Xie classmate, do you want to default on your debt?"

Xie Guang: "When did I ever deny my debt... No, when did I ever admit it?"

Du Qingtang: "Desks overturned, inkstones shattered, books stained—all of this is blamed on classmate Xie. As a victim, isn't it only natural for me to demand compensation?"

Everyone: “…”

Xie Guang: “…”

Xie Guang has lived for twenty years and has never seen such a shameless person!

No wonder Brother Yuan is no match for this girl. She is too shameless. She can turn black into white when anything comes out of her mouth.

Xie Guang's forehead veins throbbed, and he took a deep breath: "According to what you said, how should you compensate me for this?"

In addition to the college uniforms worn when entering the college, students who want new college uniforms later need to purchase them at their own expense.

"Compensation? Why should Mr. Du compensate?" Du Qingtang said with a look of "don't bother with me." "There's evidence and witnesses. It's clearly classmate Xie who caused this mess. Why is Mr. Xie still holding Mr. Du responsible?"

"puff--"

Some people couldn't help laughing and covered their mouths with their hands and chuckled.

The laughter broke the tense atmosphere in the classroom and quickly spread to others.

Every student in Class D laughed so hard that their bellies burst into laughter. They laughed so hard that tears were about to come out.

"That's right, Xie Guang. It's clearly your fault. If you hadn't knocked over Du Qingtang's table, you wouldn't have had a mouth full of ink."

"Classmate Xie, stop quibbling and quickly compensate classmate Du for her inkstone. Oh, and help her copy a copy of Mencius."

"Five times is copying, six times is also copying, there is not much difference."

"We can ask Master Sun to come and judge the situation and see who is at fault."

Xie Guang thought of Teacher Sun's dead face and felt a pang of fear in his heart: "No need, I will give you the inkstone tomorrow."

Du Qingtang reminded him: "There is also Du's Mencius."

Xie Guang gritted his teeth and resisted the urge to eat Du Qingtang alive: "Got it."

Du Qingtang pointed at the ink at his feet and said, "Thank you, classmate. Don't forget to clean up this mess before you leave."

Xie Guang took a deep breath: "I haven't forgotten."

Du Qingtang smiled: "Thank you, classmate, you are such a good person."

Xie Guang: “…”

Damn it, he will never let Du Qingtang go!

"Classmate Fu, let's go eat. I'm already hungry after such a long class."

Du Qingtang picked up the book, put it in his school bag, walked around Xie Guang and left.

Xie Guang went to the bathroom to get a basin of water, washed his face first, and then cleaned up.

The desk fell with a loud clang and the rag made a gurgling sound, which showed how much force was used.

"Xie Guang must have completely hated Du Qingtang."

"I originally thought Du Qingtang was mature beyond his years, a nerdy and boring nerd, but I didn't expect him to be so naive and innocent. I couldn't tell that Xie Guang did it on purpose, so I let him off so easily."

"Isn't this good? We are here to study, not to scheme and frame each other."

Cao Xingcan folded his arms and watched the whole process coldly.

From Xie Guang walking towards Du Qingtang and knocking over her desk, to Du Qingtang's unexpected counterattack.

Recalling Du Qingtang's quick and decisive actions, Cao Xingcan sneered.

Naive and simple?

not necessarily.
