He didn't want to stay any longer to hear He Jingxuan's precise attacks, so he turned around and left decisively.

Qu Wenbin's heart skipped a beat. Recent events had caused Pei Si to become somewhat dissatisfied with him. Tonight, He Jingxuan's words had hurt Pei Si's pride too much, and he was afraid that he would be completely blamed.

He didn't dare say a word at that moment and quickly turned around to chase after Pei Si.

"Oh, by the way, just a heads-up, the one who hit you today was me, He Jingxuan," He Jingxuan said lazily, hands in his pockets, adding kindly.

"Aren't you afraid they'll tell the teacher?" Xie Li couldn't help but ask as the two walked away.

He Jingxuan's actions just now were completely without reason. If this were to escalate to the school, He Jingxuan would likely face considerable trouble.

He Jingxuan, who had been acting cool just moments before, seemed a little uncomfortable around Xie Li. "It's alright, they wouldn't dare."

He was notorious and domineering at school, but he always knew how to behave properly.

Pei Si disdained to do such things as tattling behind people's backs, while Qu Wenbin was a coward who bullied the weak and feared the strong; he didn't have the guts to offend He Jingxuan.

Xie Li said thoughtfully, "Hmm, that's good. I used to love peace too much."

"But thank you for your help anyway. Actually, I was planning to beat them up, but it's a pity."

Xie Li still felt a little regretful. She wasn't actually that gentle at heart. If fists were so effective, why bother arguing with words? It was pointless.

Su Ying smiled and said, "Actually, it's quite nice to put burlap sacks in alleys without surveillance cameras after school."

Li Chen's eyes lit up immediately: "That's great! I'll do it, I can..."

"Shut up, just focus on your studies and don't go astray." Xie Li had a headache; this guy was the real warmonger.

Su Ying said coolly, "Yeah, the school bully just mocked you for not being from Linjiang No. 1 Middle School."

Li Chen's anger flared up again at the thought of Pei Si's arrogant attitude. "I'll have the butler submit my application tomorrow. I want to take the entrance exam for Linjiang No. 1 Middle School!"

Luo Zhihan looked at the girl in front of him with cold eyes, "What is it?"

If it weren't for the fact that Ming Xiaoxiao had put in so much effort to throw herself so hard, barely managing to please him, he wouldn't have planned to stop at all.

Ming Xiaoxiao's face stiffened, but she tried her best to get up and straighten her clothes. As soon as she moved her hand, she noticed Luo Zhihan taking a few steps back in disgust, which made her even more embarrassed.

She hasn't been having a good time at school these days.

Wenling has been ignoring her for the past few days, while Xie Li's prestige at school has soared to unprecedented heights after she was vilified online and the truth was finally revealed.

Many people noticed her actions and, recalling the live broadcast by Shen Xinghe and others, became even more certain that she had been targeting and framing Xie Li.

Most of the students at Linjiang No. 1 Middle School come from well-off families, which makes them more stubborn. Although they are unlikely to commit violence, it is true that she is often looked down upon wherever she goes.

She had offended some girls because of her previous persona of a poor but strong girl, and these past few days, girls who had suffered at her hands have come looking for trouble.

Especially since a considerable number of people who like Pei Si and Wen Ling think she's a bitch.

She knew Luo Zhihan would take this route to find Xie Li, so she deliberately spoke harshly and got into an argument with a few girls. Then, naturally, those girls pushed her hard.

She had calculated the timing and angle perfectly to crash into Luo Zhihan's arms, but she didn't expect Luo Zhihan to be so quick, dodging her like a snake.

So she rolled around on the wet ground, looking completely disheveled.

Seeing that something was wrong, the other girls quickly slipped away.
