He Qiangwei immediately breathed a sigh of relief and walked up to Liu Xiaolan.
"By the way, Xiao Lan, you still haven't told me where you went just now? Why did that Xiao Yiqing make things difficult for you?"
Upon hearing He Qiangwei's words, Liu Xiaolan immediately let out a cold laugh.
Do I need to report to you where I go?
He Qiangwei hadn't expected Liu Xiaolan to be so direct, and she immediately gave an awkward smile.
"Xiao Lan, that's not what I meant. I was just concerned about you, after all, we're roommates."
Stop pretending, I don't need your concern.
After Liu Xiaolan finished speaking, she lay down on the bed, covered her head with the blanket, and stopped talking.
Seeing this, He Qiangwei was also annoyed.
"Lazybones, what's wrong with you today? Why are you so hostile towards me?"
"Don't you know what you've done?"
Liu Xiaolan poked her head out from under the covers and looked coldly at He Qiangwei.
He Qiangwei felt a little guilty under Liu Xiaolan's gaze, but she still stubbornly insisted,
"What did I do? I didn't do anything."
"Didn't you do it? Then how did Xiao Yiqing know I was there? And why did you bring me there?"
Liu Xiaolan's barrage of questions left He Qiangwei speechless.
She knew that Liu Xiaolan had already sensed something, but she still didn't want to admit it.
"Lazybones, I really don't know what you're talking about. I..."
"Enough, He Qiangwei, don't treat me like a fool. I know very well what you've done."
After Liu Xiaolan finished speaking, she ignored He Qiangwei and lay back down on the bed.
He Qiangwei watched Liu Xiaolan's retreating figure, feeling a surge of anger.
"Hmph~ Liu Xiaolan, you're just cannon fodder. Cannon fodder should be prepared to be cannon fodder. I'll show you what I'm capable of."
Wu Youyou watched from the side without saying a word. She knew that Liu Xiaolan needed to calm down.
Shi Xingyue watched all this silently, pondering some things in her mind.
The next day, Liu Xiaolan didn't say another word to He Qiangwei, and she began to focus more on her studies.
She knew that for an ordinary girl like herself, the only way to make her life work was through her own efforts, studying hard, and finding a better job in the future.
That afternoon, Liu Xiaolan was reading in the library when she suddenly received a call from Shi Xingyue.
"Xiao Lan, something terrible has happened! Come to the school gate right away! Xiao Yiqing has brought a group of people and is blocking the way. They say they want to settle scores with you."
Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaolan was startled. She didn't know why Xiao Yiqing had come to her, but she knew she couldn't avoid facing it.
So she quickly packed up her books, left the library, and headed towards the school gate.
When she arrived at the school gate, she saw a group of people gathered there, and Xiao Yiqing was standing in the middle of the crowd, looking at her arrogantly.
"Liu Xiaolan, you little brat, you've finally come out. I thought you were going to be a coward for the rest of your life."
Xiao Yiqing looked at Liu Xiaolan and said with a mocking expression.
Liu Xiaolan ignored Xiao Yiqing's sarcasm; she simply looked at her coldly and asked,
What do you want from me?
"What is it? How dare you ask? Do you know how badly you've hurt me? My dad beat me up badly, and it's all because of you."
As Xiao Yiqing spoke, she rushed towards Liu Xiaolan, intending to hit her.
Seeing this, Liu Xiaolan quickly dodged Xiao Yiqing's attack, and then said coldly,
"Xiao Yiqing, can't you be reasonable? What does it have to do with me that you got beaten up?"
"None of your business? Tell me, wasn't it you who made Song Shaojie break off the engagement with me!"
"Song Shaojie wants to break off the engagement?"
Liu Xiaolan looked surprised.
Xiao Yiqing's expression was fierce as she lunged at Liu Xiaolan, intending to slap her.
Before Liu Xiaolan could dodge in time, she felt a gust of wind about to slap her face.
Just then, Wu Youyou arrived in time, grabbed Xiao Yiqing's hand, and threw her away.
"Xiao Yiqing, what's wrong with you? Let me tell you, if you dare to bully Xiao Lan, I'll never forgive you."
Liu Xiaolan felt incredibly ironic here. Her heart felt like it had been mercilessly filled with molten iron, making her feel suffocated. She prepared to pull Wu Youyou away.
"Youyou, let's go!"
However, at that moment, a group of people blocked their way.
"Want to leave? Not so easy."
As the boy in the lead spoke, he walked towards Liu Xiaolan.
Looking at the boy in front of her, Liu Xiaolan felt a surge of nervousness. She knew that she was probably in grave danger today.
However, at that moment, a familiar voice suddenly rang out.
"Stop! I'd like to see who dares to touch her."
Liu Xiaolan looked up at the sound and saw Song Shaojie walking towards her.
His appearance filled Liu Xiaolan with excitement; she knew she was saved.
Sure enough, as soon as Song Shaojie appeared, everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at him.
"Song Shaojie, this woman bewitched you into breaking off our engagement. I'm going to teach her a lesson now. Do you dare stop me?"
Xiao Yiqing looked at Song Shaojie and said with displeasure.
Song Shaojie ignored Xiao Yiqing's words; he simply looked at her coldly and said,
"Xiao Yiqing, don't think I don't know what you've done. Let me tell you, I won't let this go."
After saying that, he took Liu Xiaolan's hand and prepared to leave.
