Xia Lan looked as if she had seen a ghost.
Overwhelmed by Jiang Nian's aura, he couldn't utter a complete sentence for a moment.
His expression betrayed his horror: "You, how could you..."
Hearing Xia Lan's slightly trembling voice, Jiang Nian's eyes turned cold.
"How could I know what? How could I have gotten out so quickly?"
"You think you can trap me with just a toilet stall door?"
His tone carried a hint of sarcasm.
Xia Lan really didn't expect this.
Could it be that Jiang Nian just kicked the toilet door open?
Is this really something an ordinary high school girl could do?!
Jiang Nian looked at Lu Ci and Wen Yu standing to the side.
His expression remained unchanged; he simply asked coldly, "Is it Xia Lan alone, or the three of you together?"
In other words, the question is whether Xia Lan arranged what happened today, or whether the three of them were working together to deal with her.
The girl before me was soaking wet, water droplets rolling down her small, palm-sized face. Her beautiful, clear black and white pupils were even darker.
Her soaked white shirt clung tightly to her shapely figure, her strapless bra barely concealed beneath. Yet, the girl stood there neither embarrassed nor disheveled, her beauty radiating a cold, aloof elegance.
Wen Yu frowned. Her expression remained unchanged; she simply looked away coldly.
Lu Ci blushed and stammered, "...Wen Yu and I were just passing by; it has nothing to do with us."
"Since it has nothing to do with you, don't get in my way."
Jiang Nian moved half a step to the side, leaving a gap for herself to exit through the doorway; the coldness was almost a pronouncement.
"You all go, Xia Lan stays."
Xia Lan almost trembled when she heard Jiang Nian call her name to stay.
"Jiang Nian! What do you want to do to me?!"
"Did you not develop a brain when you were growing up?" Jiang Nian sneered at her. "Tell me, what do I want to do to you?"
That's terrifying.
She was as beautiful as a demon, yet as cold-blooded as a venomous snake.
The scene at this moment immediately reminded Xia Lan of the despair she felt on the rooftop that night.
She dared not stay any longer and tried to run out of the stairwell. But as soon as she took a step, Jiang Nian reached out and grabbed her from behind.
The next second, Jiang Nian's movements were cold-blooded and practiced. He tripped Xia Lan with his leg and used his hand to force her to the ground.
Before Lu Ci and Wen Yu could react, she had already grabbed Xia Lan's hair with her other hand.
They shoved Xia Lan's head directly into the cleaning bucket filled with water that she had brought.
The whole process took less than three seconds.
Lu Ci was stunned when he saw this scene.
They were almost dumbfounded.
"Jiang Nian, are you crazy! Xia Lan is..."
"She's the daughter of Mingxia Pharmaceuticals?" Jiang Nian said expressionlessly, raising her chin. "So what?"
That's outrageous.
Throughout the entire history of Canxing, there has never been anyone so arrogant.
"Ugh!! Ugh!!"
Xia Lan was being held down tightly, struggling frantically in the bucket, but could only make muffled noises.
Bubbles were constantly rising and gurgling in the water.
For a moment, Wen Yu felt that the person in front of him was truly fearless.
They seem to carry some kind of cold-blooded gene in their bones, and will show madness when provoked.
Seeing that Xia Lan's body was starting to convulse, Wen Yu had no choice but to stand coldly in front of Jiang Nian: "That's enough, pressing her down any further will kill her."
"So, people like you actually care about human life?"
Jiang Nian chuckled. She raised her eyes and met Wen Yu's gaze.
"Or are you saying that only the lives of those in your social class are considered human lives?"
If Xia Lan cared about human life, she wouldn't have had someone tamper with her safety rope a few days ago.
Wen Yu paused.
Seeing that it was about time, Jiang Nian grabbed Xia Lan's hair and pulled her out of the water.
Xia Lan's hair was messy and soaking wet, and her face was flushed from holding it in.
As soon as it came out, it was like a dying fish on the shore, gasping for breath.
I'm coughing uncontrollably; it feels like my lungs are going to come out.
"Cough, cough, cough..."
Jiang Nian didn't say much.
He grabbed Xia Lan's hair, forcing her to look up and stare into her eyes.
"Are you awake, Miss Xia?"
"Don't try to use these little tricks on me again. Otherwise, do it in a more sophisticated way."
After saying that, he let go of her hand as if throwing away trash.
Xia Lan collapsed to the ground, her body trembling violently from the near-drowning fear she had just experienced.
Jiang Nian wanted to leave the stairwell, but the moment she turned around, Lu Ci suddenly grabbed her wrist.
Lu Ci himself was stunned, not knowing why he had made such a move.
"You're soaking wet, and you're going out like this?"
"My lounge has a bathroom and new shirts, why don't you..."
The teaching building is far from the dormitory, but the sixth floor is the student union's lounge.
"No need."
Jiang Nian's expression didn't change. She simply shook off Lu Ci's hand and stood up straight.
Flowers bloom and wealth arrives.
Lu Ci is Lu Ci.
Ni An regarded the blooming flowers and wealth as friends.
But the young master of the Lu family wasn't that familiar with Jiang Nian.
"..."
For the first time in his life, Lu Ci's advances were met with such a ruthless and direct rejection from a girl.
Jiang Nian had already turned and left, leaving only the still-swaying door behind.
Lu Ci then came to his senses.
Wen Yu gave him a deep look.
"I didn't, I..." Lu Ci stammered, unsure how to explain, but his heart was pounding like thunder.
What's going on? Why does he care if a specially admitted student is wet?
...He would only be attracted to An.
