Chapter 24 Conflict (Revised) Slap
Su Xingshu's deep peach blossom eyes stared at her, like a hook, hinting at expectation. He whispered, "You seem unwell. This is something produced at my grandfather's farm. It's of excellent quality and very beneficial to your health."
Fu Liangxia: "...Thank you."
"If you like to drink, I'll bring it to you every day." Su Xingshu looked at her and whispered with some affection.
Some students around had already noticed this and were secretly looking at them.
"However, the annual production is only over a hundred plants, and 60% of them are distributed to legislators. If you drink it every day, it may not be enough. I will go back and check the inventory."
Fu Liangxia: "...No need, I don't think I'm that weak yet."
She just has a systematic random disease. The weakness she had in the womb had already been cured in the sanatorium. Drinking ginseng soup would probably be of no use.
However, since it is such a precious old ginseng, even a member of parliament would not drink it every day.
Fu Liangxia looked at him with a puzzled expression. She thought he would give her some clothes or jewelry, but she didn't expect that he was really thinking about what she needed.
She thought he was the kind of playboy who never considered others and only spent money on others.
"Did you give this to your ex-girlfriend as well?" Fu Liangxia asked casually.
The girl looked at him with a pair of cold eyes, which were so clear that only his reflection could be seen. The pink on her face had not faded yet, and she looked breathtakingly beautiful.
Su Xingshu stared at her for two seconds and said, "No, they were the ones who chased me before."
He said he was pursuing her, and at the same time he flattered her by saying that she was different from his ex-girlfriends.
Fu Liangxia understood the meaning of the words, but she didn't want to respond.
She would take the bait at any angle, treating her like a young girl who had never been in love.
"Besides, Fu is so popular. He even has a good relationship with Xiaoyao and Xingzhou. If I weren't special, you'd look down on me even more." He suddenly hit the nail on the head. "You're not with them, are you?"
Fu Liangxia: "You think too much, we just know each other."
Both of them fell silent, staring at each other in silence, and it seemed that they exchanged eight hundred messages in one second.
Su Xingshu seemed lost in thought, while Fu Liangxia was bored, but neither of them looked away. Finally, Fu Liedong, hugging Wang Ziwei, came over. Seeing the two of them staring at each other in silence, he felt strange and spoke up to break up this inexplicable exchange.
"Sister, what are you and Brother Su doing?" Fu Liedong looked at this and that, but couldn't figure out what was going on. Instead, his attention was attracted by the box in Fu Liangxia's hand.
"Damn! This must be the ginseng produced in Qingshui Villa. The quality is so good..." Fu Liedong chattered, and even Wang Ziwei next to him cast a curious look at him.
"Really?" Wang Ziwei glanced at him in surprise, then complained, "Brother Su is so unkind. We've known each other for a year, and he hasn't even offered to give me one."
"260,000 yuan per tree. Call and make an appointment yourself." Su Xingshu glanced at him, knowing that he was just joking.
Wang Ziwei's family is in the medical business, so he has many good ginseng channels. Although the ginseng from Qingshui Villa is more famous, it is not necessary to ask for it from him.
But Su Xingshu knew the Fu family and knew that they were poor and basically a shell company. He thought they would not spend more than 200,000 yuan to buy a ginseng.
However, someone came, and the previous conversation between the two naturally could not continue, but Su Xingshu had already got the answer he wanted.
And Fu Liangxia...
She has turned around and devoted herself to studying.
The first class in the morning was math, and as expected, the teacher announced the competition in class. As soon as he finished speaking, the classroom went wild.
Saint Lander College wasn't the kind of place where a second-generation, idiot could just get by. Its curriculum was rigorous and elitist. While it neglected the cultivation of students' character, few who attended Saint Lander were empty-headed or unlearned.
On the contrary, they admire the strong and are also very competitive.
Just like if you are a specially recruited student with excellent grades, you can also win their respect. Unfortunately, most specially recruited students, after arriving at St. Lander, see the sensual pleasures of life, and the psychological gap is formed, and they are unwilling to continue to study hard.
Why bother working hard for something you can get by being a lackey? Five or ten years from now, you'll end up at the same destination.
They are all lackeys of the chaebols.
You can also save yourself two years of detour.
In such a situation, few people can hold on to their original intentions. Compared to physical violence, mental stress is undoubtedly more exhausting.
Therefore, this competition received a great response from all classes, but most of the applicants were children of chaebols, and there were very few specially recruited students who were the most deserving of the competition and had entered based on their academic performance.
Because, how can they be better and more dazzling than their "master"?
After class, Fu Liangxia went to the office immediately to hand in his registration form.
Math teacher Park Yeon was very happy to see her register. She smiled and patted her on the shoulder: "Study hard. If you have any questions, you can ask me."
She was impressed by this student who had excellent entrance exam scores and good class performance, and was willing to devote some energy to guiding her.
"The Academy of Education attaches great importance to this competition. The scale is larger than in previous years. The first and special prize winners will have the opportunity to obtain self-recruitment places at Sridhar University."
Pu Yan said with a smile, "I have set up a class specifically for this competition. If you can pass the preliminary round, you can come to me for tutoring."
Pu Yan's office was in the Math Academic Affairs Office, and all the teachers there were math teachers. As the only specially appointed teacher in the Grade 12 Math Department, everyone knew the value and difficulty of her tutoring classes, and upon hearing her words, they all looked over in surprise.
"Aren't you going to stop accepting students?" a teacher said. "That's not good. Your tutoring class is already full of students from Sridhar University High School. If you add someone from our school..."
Pu Yan glanced at the teacher who was speaking, said nothing, and just waved her hand to let Fu Liangxia go back.
After Fu Liangxia left, her voice could be heard from behind the closed door: "She's not the only one. Bai Xin said he'd be back early. With his level, he's definitely going for the special prize. And Cheng Xingzhou..."
Bai Xin?
When Fu Liangxia heard this familiar name, she suddenly realized that he seemed to be the younger brother of the twins of one of the F4 in the original book.
Is he coming back?
She remembered the blog she saw last night, and it seemed to be true.
However, before the system popped up the tasks related to him, these had nothing to do with Fu Liangxia.
The second class was swimming class. Fu Liangxia wasted some time submitting the registration form, so she did not return to the classroom and went directly to the swimming pool.
Along the way, I saw many classmates walking towards that direction in groups, including some who were not from their class.
Because swimming class is a large class, although there are several teachers, they all share the same venue, so it seems more lively than other classes.
"Xiao Xia, does your class also have swimming lessons?" Bai Kewei's voice came from behind.
She turned around when she heard the voice and saw Bai Kewei running towards her. She gave her a bright smile: "I was still worried about your health, but now you seem to be much better." "Thanks to the school uniform you sent." Fu Liangxia nodded at her.
Because it was a swimming class, Fu Liangxia tied her hair up into a bun high on her head, revealing her slender neck and graceful figure, like a beautiful swan.
Bai Kewei was almost stunned.
She couldn't help but be distracted, and felt that Fu Liangxia was more in line with her initial fantasy of a chaebol's son: clean and beautiful, and with a kind heart to stand up for unrelated people.
Bai Kewei blushed slightly: "No, that dress was not brought by me, it was brought by your brother..."
Fu Liangxia interrupted her and gently took her hand: "But just give it to me. It must be because of Kewei that I recovered so quickly."
Now, Bai Kewei became famous inside and out.
She was dizzy as Fu Liangxia held her hand. The pleasant smell of pine wood mixed with spring water came to her, a very neutral and cool fragrance.
It seems to give people a colder impression than Fu Liangxia, but it is not inconsistent, but has a different flavor.
Bai Kewei was immersed in her own world and didn't notice that when a few girls passed by her, the person holding her arm suddenly frowned.
Fu Liangxia was born with more sensitive hearing than ordinary people, and because of her growth experience in her previous life, she is very sensitive to other people's emotions.
When those girls passed by them, she clearly heard their whispers, and the looks they gave Bai Kewei next to her were very malicious.
She vaguely sensed something was wrong and quickly pulled Bai Kewei into the girls' preparation room.
As early as when they entered school, the school gave them a preparation list, which included swimsuits that had to be handed in upon enrollment and placed in each person's individual locker by the student union.
That's right, because these chaebol children are extremely mysophobic and won't share their lockers with others, every student has their own dedicated locker in the swimming pool from the time they start until graduation. After graduation, the lockers are disinfected and cleaned before being distributed to the next class.
Fu Liangxia and Bai Kewei transferred here midway, so their lockers were at the very outside and were very conspicuous.
But what was more noticeable was that one of the cabinets had been opened, only half-closed.
Unused lockers all have initial passwords, the last six digits of their student ID numbers, and can be easily opened as long as you know their student ID numbers.
Fu Liangxia walked closer and saw Bai Kewei's name written on the open cabinet.
Bai Kewei stood there in a daze, her hand gripping the cabinet door trembling slightly. She could already foresee what the scene would be like inside. Those people always used coercion and bribery to recruit special admissions students, but she didn't want Fu Liangxia to see this... It was very embarrassing.
This was more unacceptable to her than being seen by anyone else, because Fu Liangxia was different.
A plain navy blue swimsuit hung on a hanger in the closet. The fabric didn't look expensive, but it was clean and simple. But now, it had been ripped in countless places, and three large characters were written on it in ink:
Mudblood.
Bai Kewei's face instantly lost its color. She stood there, not daring to turn around and look at Fu Liangxia's expression.
Even though she knew it wouldn't happen, she was still afraid of seeing an expression of disgust on that pretty face.
Fu Liangxia just felt a sense of absurdity for some unknown reason.
The moment she saw the word "Mudblood", she almost thought that she was not wearing some aristocratic college uniform, but Harry Potter.
But no matter where it is, this word is not a polite word.
However, she had clearly stopped Bai Kewei from provoking Fu Haoyao, and even without the Joker card, Bai Kewei still could not escape the fate of being bullied.
Is the will of the world so unbreakable that Bai Kewei still has to go through all the hardships described in the original book?
Fu Liangxia sneered. She was the one who didn't believe in fate the most.
To suppress a person is to insult and destroy her mentally. What if such means are used against them?
Hearing the sneer, Bai Kewei instinctively turned her head, but saw Fu Liangxia's expression remained the same as always. He just asked her calmly: "Do you have a candidate?"
There was no disgust, nor disdain. Bai Kewei didn't know what she felt at that moment. She hesitated for a moment, then nodded slowly: "It should be Qin Wan..."
"Take me to her."
Bai Kewei didn't know what she wanted to do, but she inexplicably felt that Fu Liangxia was a little scary at this moment. She was not at all like her usual gentle self. Instead, she exuded a dangerous aura.
She instinctively followed Fu Liangxia into the venue.
"How many times has this happened?"
"……not much."
Not much, but not nothing.
Fu Liangxia's eyes dimmed slightly. If one encountered such a thing once and did not resist fiercely, hitting the other party until they were bleeding, and then regretted it, the other party would cling to the victim like a stinkbug in the gutter and become more aggressive.
Bai Kewei may not understand this, but having experienced all of this before, she understands it very well.
"Tell me what you know. What does Qin Wan's family do?" She wanted to see if there was anything she could do.
…
The students in the venue were all wearing swimsuits and doing warm-up exercises. Among them, Fu Haoyao, who was wearing swimming shorts, was particularly eye-catching.
His muscles are beautifully shaped without being exaggerated, his body is slender, and he is full of explosive power, showing the aesthetics of the human body to the extreme, and even... it's pink.
Many girls were stealing glances at him with shy smiles on their faces, and even the boys were secretly looking at his muscles.
Fu Haoyao happened to be facing the door. The moment he saw Fu Liangxia come in, he waved at her and smiled broadly.
It's very similar to the instinctive expression a golden retriever would show when it sees its owner after waiting for a long time.
However, Fu Liangxia didn't even glance at him, and walked towards somewhere without looking around.
As Fu Haoyao waved his hand, everyone who had been secretly watching him looked in the direction he was looking, and then they saw two people who were wearing ordinary clothes and looked particularly strange among the crowd.
Whispers were heard.
Fu Liangxia ignored them and walked straight towards the girl who had just passed by them and was now looking at them with an expression of anticipation.
She was wearing a light pink swimsuit. She had an ordinary face and smooth skin that looked well-maintained. Even her hair was combed neatly and uniquely.
"Why aren't you wearing a swimsuit, Bai Kewei?" The girl glanced at Fu Liangxia, a flash of surprise in her eyes. Then she looked at Bai Kewei and sneered, "Can't you afford it, or... don't you like the gift I gave you?"
This sentence made Bai Kewei's eyes red with anger, and also made Fu Liangxia confirm her identity. She said, "Are you Qin Wan?"
The girl nodded hesitantly, perhaps frightened by her aura, and said honestly, "I am. What do you want from me?"
"Did you make Bai Kewei's swimsuit?" Fu Liangxia confirmed again out of concern for accidental injury.
Qin Wan was stunned when she heard this, and then a hint of malice appeared in her eyes: "Who did I think it was? It turns out it was someone who stood up for Bai Kewei. It's me, so what? What can you do?"
"Bai Kewei's friends are just as mean as her..."
“Bang!”
Fu Liangxia raised his hand and slapped her complacent face hard. Because of his anger, the slap was so powerful that it directly knocked Qin Wan's body crooked.
The tiles on the swimming pool were slippery to begin with, and the slap caused her to lose her balance and she fell to the ground with a thud. The hem of her pink skirt was stained with dirty water mixed with footprints.
"You untouchable, do you know who I am? How dare you treat me like this? Do you want to quit your job?!" She looked up in disbelief, staring at Fu Liangxia and gritting her teeth.
Because of anger, her face was extremely distorted, and coupled with the distinct slap marks on her face, she looked very ugly. In front of Fu Liangxia, she looked more like the evil person who slapped others.
"Of course I know. I'm hitting you." Fu Liangxia slowly leaned forward and smiled. The coldness in her eyes inexplicably frightened her. "Qin Wan, your family is in the oil business, right? Do you know the supplier's last name?"
Qin Wan's pupils trembled. Of course, she didn't know the last name of her supplier. She was only 17 years old, and all she did was eat, drink, and shop. How could she possibly get involved in the business world?
"What do you mean?" she said in a timid tone.
Seeing this, Fu Liangxia's smile widened: "Maybe he wants you to have a taste of what it's like to be overwhelmed by power?"
The implication revealed in this made Qin Wan terrified. What if the Fu Liangxia family happened to be the supplier and maliciously broke the contract in the middle of the project...
But Qin Wan didn't believe that she had the courage to do something that would harm others and benefit herself.
Qin Wan scrambled to her feet, not knowing whether fear or shame had taken over. Noticing Fu Liangxia standing very close to the pool, she suddenly felt terrified and pushed her forward.
However, halfway through the push, her arm was firmly grasped, making it difficult to get close.
"I also want to hear how you make her 'not want to mix in'." The hand on her wrist was as strong as an iron clamp, but the moment the man's voice sounded, Qin Wan ignored the pain and felt as if she fell into an icy cave.
