Chapter 17 Isn't it normal for children to exploit each other?



Wang Fugui was expelled from Fenghua College.

The teachers reprimanded them a few more times before leaving.

Liu Yuanyuan rushed forward: "Tuantuan, are you alright?"

Xiao Tuantuan shook her head, while Chen Xingfeng said, "Wang Fugui is the county magistrate's son, I'm afraid he won't let this go easily."

"So what if he can't? This is Fenghua Academy." Chen Lingfeng said dismissively. "Fenghua Academy was established by imperial decree. How could a mere county magistrate bypass the Empress Dowager?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Xingfeng said calmly, "After all, the mountains are high and the rivers are far away, and distant water cannot quench a nearby fire."

"Hey bro, stop worrying unnecessarily," Chen Lingfeng said nonchalantly, then looked at Xiao Tuantuan and gave her a thumbs up. "Awesome."

Xiao Tuantuan smiled and said, "Thank you both for protecting me."

Han Weiwei snorted, her rosy lips pouting slightly: "You still have to rely on me!"

After saying that, he took Su Ling back to the school.

He Lin crossed his arms, glanced at Xiao Tuantuan with a complicated expression, and then left.

The others gathered around, showing concern for Xiao Tuantuan while recounting how despicable Wang Fugui was.

The crowd dispersed only after the Master arrived.

Chen Xingfeng and Chen Lingfeng had long been ostracized, so they had no choice but to silently return to their own schools.

"Hey, Xiao Tuantuan, I allow you to have lunch with me."

Han Weiwei raised her eyebrows and chin, looking arrogant. It was Xiao Tuantuan's honor to have dinner with her, Miss Han!

Xiao Tuantuan looked at Han Weiwei with a smile: "Okay, Yuanyuan, come along too."

Liu Yuanyuan's face turned pale, and she quickly shook her head: "No..."

"Who does she think she is, daring to eat at the same table as me?" Han Weiwei blurted out, her tone full of contempt.

Xiao Tuantuan's smile vanished, and she frowned as she looked at Han Weiwei.

"You cured my shoulder pain, that's why I allowed you to eat with me. Don't be ungrateful!"

Han Weiwei snorted coldly: "Let's go!"

"Tuantuan, you go ahead, I can eat by myself." Liu Yuanyuan forced a smile and said softly.

Xiao Tuantuan glanced at Liu Tuantuan with a strange look, then looked at Han Weiwei's back.

Although Han Weiwei is the daughter of the prefect and speaks harshly, she is not a vicious person.

Such targeting of Liu Yuanyuan can only mean that something happened between the two that is unknown to others.

However, since neither of them wanted to talk about it, she didn't force them, and simply said, "Let's go together."

He Lin stepped forward and scoffed, "Xiao Tuantuan is younger than you, but she's braver than you."

Liu Yuanyuan's face turned pale, and without saying anything more, she quickly walked towards the small canteen.

The day passed quite peacefully. Thanks to Han Weiwei's overtures and Wang Fugui's actions, Xiao Tuantuan received a lot of friendly treatment from her classmates.

Xiao Tuantuan was also very interested in what the teachers taught.

At dawn, Xiao Tuantuan got up on time, dressed, and headed towards the small bamboo grove to the west.

During the day, she observed that the small bamboo grove to the west connected to the back gate of the academy, and usually no one came here, which was just right for her to practice martial arts.

My maternal grandfather said that practicing martial arts is not something that can be done overnight; it requires perseverance.

"Liu Yuanyuan, if you dare to ruin my plans again, don't blame me for being rude to you!"

A deliberately lowered male voice came through.

Xiao Tuantuan was slightly taken aback, squinted and looked over, and spotted a black figure and Liu Yuanyuan with her head down and back hunched.

"You already ruined things last time. If you don't succeed this time, you're coming back here!"

Liu Yuanyuan was clearly terrified of the man in front of her. She shrank back and said in a trembling voice, "Big brother, Miss Han already hates me. I can't get close to her, I..."

"Pah! That's because you're useless!" the dark figure said angrily. "Here, this is the medicine I got. Give it to her!"

Liu Yuanyuan looked at the medicine bottle in her hand, her voice trembling with fear, "Big brother, I... I dare not..."

"You've done it before, haven't you? I need to see results in three days, or you know what will happen." With that, the dark figure climbed out over the back door wall.

Liu Yuanyuan stood there stunned for a long time before slowly squatting down and bursting into tears.

[It's a drug that will disfigure you.] The sound of a spoon suddenly rang out. [How vicious! There's no antidote for this drug.]

Xiao Tuantuan was very surprised. What exactly was Liu Yuanyuan's older brother going to do?

Liu Yuanyuan seemed to have cried enough. She wiped away her tears and walked out of the grove.

Xiao Tuantuan hid behind a big tree and only came out after Liu Yuanyuan's figure had completely disappeared.

"Aren't you curious?" The mechanical sound of the ladle carried a hint of doubt.

"It's not like it's harming me, so what does it have to do with me?"

"You really are cold-blooded," the spoon muttered.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Tuantuan didn't care. In her previous life, under her mother's guidance, she was kind-hearted and warm-hearted, but in the end, she still ended up with her head separated from her body.

What's wrong with being cold-blooded? Isn't Xiao Guangyuan a cold-blooded and ruthless person?

They're living a perfectly good life, and they've even been promoted and given titles.

"Hmm..."

A muffled groan rang out.

Xiao Tuantuan snapped out of her daze and stepped on it again: "Huh? It's soft?"

"Get away!" A panting voice rang out. Xiao Tuantuan quickly took two steps back, parted the weeds in front of her, and a strong smell of blood rushed out.

By the moonlight, Xiao Tuantuan looked at the person lying in the corner. He was dressed in black and his face was covered, with only his eyes visible.

"You're about to die," Xiao Tuantuan blurted out, looking at the man in black with some surprise.

Ning Nanxiao, barely suppressing the urge to faint, stared at Xiao Tuantuan for a long while before shouting in a deep voice, "Get out!"

Xiao Tuantuan rolled her eyes: "No, you try and show me."

Ning Nanxiao felt a lump in her throat and simply closed her eyes.

Xiao Tuantuan pursed her lips, squatted down, and poked Ning Nanxiao's bleeding spot with her finger: "Is he still alive?"

The pain forced Ning Nanxiao to open his eyes again, glaring angrily at Xiao Tuantuan.

Xiao Tuantuan laughed: "Judging from your wealthy and noble appearance, you must have a lot of silver. How about I trade a thousand taels for your life?"

Ning Nanxiao was silent for a moment: "Let me die."

"You..." Xiao Tuantuan's eyes widened, "Do you have to be so stingy?"

Ning Nanxiao didn't want to talk. He had no money, but he could take his life!

Xiao Tuantuan took a deep breath and reached out to touch Ning Nanxiao: "Since you're going to die anyway, and you can't take your money with you, I'll take it for you. Don't worry, I'll make sure you spend all your money."

Ning Nanxiao stared at the little girl in disbelief. If he hadn't been seriously injured and unable to move, he would have already shown her the consequences of touching his money!

After finding a few taels of silver, Xiao Tuantuan was very dissatisfied. She then took out a medicine bottle from her bosom and casually sprinkled it on Ning Nanxiao.

Holding the silver, Xiao Tuantuan happily walked towards her dormitory.

"Why did you save him?" Tangshao asked curiously.

"Because he is either rich or noble, if I make good use of him in the future, he might become a tool on my path to revenge."

[That's ruthless; they didn't even spare a child.]

Xiao Tuantuan raised an eyebrow: "Who isn't a child at heart? Isn't it normal for children to be used by other children?"
