Chapter 82 I'm in your way!
"What if I say no?"
Akira grinned, "No? That's not up to you!"
As he said this, he was about to grab Song Ci's arm, intending to take him away by force.
Seeing this, Wanxiang was furious, "How dare you, a scumbag, lay hands on my young lady."
As he was protecting Song Ci, he hit Akira in a panic. When Akira came to his senses, there was a blood mark on his face.
Feeling the pain on his face, Akira wiped it with his hand. Seeing red blood on the back of his hand, his face turned even uglier. He kicked the two people beside him and said, "Are you dead? What are you looking at? Hurry up and help me catch this bitch."
The two people beside him were also dressed like scholars. After being kicked, they hesitated for a moment and then walked towards Song Ci.
Wanxiang: "Miss, run quickly. I will help you stop them."
"No." Song Ci observed calmly, "If you want to go, let's go together. I won't leave you alone."
"Miss! If you don't leave now, it will be too late." Wanxiang was touched and sad. It didn't matter if she, a servant, got hurt, but how could she let the Third Young Lady get hurt?
The Third Miss is such a good person, Wanxiang will not allow anyone to bully her.
The two sides were on the verge of a fight when an unexpected person ran towards them. He was dressed in the same clothes and looked like a student from an academy.
Song Ci looked closely and saw Lin Huo.
After not seeing her for a few days, the woman in front of me had beautiful features and a sweet voice. Even when she was angry, she looked like a lush and beautiful peach blossom blooming on a branch.
Lin Huo saw this scene from a distance and felt like his heart almost skipped a beat.
Seeing that she was in trouble, he didn't bother to come out to help the teacher and hurried over here.
"Who are you to block my way? Otherwise, I will make you pay."
Huang Si was furious and felt a little scared when he saw Lin Huo's tall appearance.
If the three of them were to deal with the two little girls, it would be more than enough, but with a person whose identity suddenly appeared, it would be hard to say.
Lin Huo's face was cold, but his tone was very polite, "I am Lin Huo from Luli Academy."
"I'm Akira, from the Second-Class Academy. Since we're from the same academy, I'm kindly reminding you to stay out of my business."
The two people beside him looked at each other and echoed, "Haven't you heard of Master Akihiro's reputation? Our Master Akihiro is the son of a sixth-rank Dianyi family. The teacher is his disciple!"
Seeing that the two men were trying to use Akira's family background and the snobbery in the academy to force Lin Huo to retreat, Wanxiang became nervous again, and her hands were as cautious as an old hen protecting her chicks.
Lin Huo's expression remained unchanged. He stood there, his figure as straight as a bamboo, his face as handsome as a jade. A cold look flashed across his eyes.
"I've heard of him. He's the top student in Class B, Akira."
"I'm glad to know. Get out of here quickly." Huang Si was complacent, thinking that he was scared, and then he winked at the two of them to capture Song Ci and the other two.
When the two men walked past Lin Huo, one of them deliberately used his shoulder to hit Lin Huo hard. As a result, Lin Huo did not move at all, but the man fell on his butt.
He looked at his wrinkled sleeve and smoothed it out slowly.
"I said I had heard it, but I said, am I going to give in?"
The man stood up and cursed, "Are you looking for death? Our Master Akira is his most proud disciple since his birth! Be careful or we will report you to the teacher and you will not be able to continue studying at the academy in the future!"
Akira twitched his lips. "It seems you're determined to go against me. Do you know who my father is? You studied so you could take the imperial examinations and become an official. It's unwise to offend me."
"How unwise." Lin Huo smiled faintly. "I wonder, Cong Shengzhi, Master Cong, do you know that your disciple is so arrogant and domineering outside, ruining your reputation?"
However, his face, which always seemed to have a humble smile, remained motionless, and there was no sign of fear at all.
Song Ci swallowed the dissuasion that was about to come out of his mouth.
Lin Huo has a bright future ahead of him, so there's no need for him to offend a bully here.
If his future was hindered because of her, Song Ci would feel that her investment had completely failed. She might even hope that Lin Huo could rise to prominence sooner than he did.
"You are threatening me." Akira's eyes shone dangerously.
Lin Huo didn't say anything, which was considered as his agreement.
"Aren't you afraid that I will prevent you from taking the scientific examination?"
The people around sighed and looked at Lin Huo with regret. From the tone of their voices, they were afraid that this young scholar was going to be in trouble.
"You are so arrogant, you little brat, aren't you afraid of ruining your own fortune?" An old voice came from behind the crowd.
Song Ci looked behind Lin Huo and saw an old man with white hair and beard walking towards him. He was wearing a moon-white robe, looking like a scholar with an immortal air.
"Teacher." Lin Huo bowed respectfully.
"Okay, get up. He knows to use the name of Cong Shengzhi to scare you, but why don't you know to say my name?" The old man blew his beard and glared, very dissatisfied.
Lin Huo was stunned for a few seconds and said, "I'll know next time, disciple."
The old man snorted coldly, his eyes sharp as he glanced at the grim-faced Akira not far away. "You just said you wanted to prevent my disciples from taking the imperial examination? Your father, a sixth-rank official in the Ministry of Rites, is actually interfering here. I will pay you a personal visit some other day."
Akira was so frightened that he almost peed himself.
How could he have known! The inconspicuous Lin Huo in front of him was actually the dean's disciple! This was a disciple of Class A. Lu Li Academy once said that being admitted to Class A would have a bright future.
This means that if you can enter Class A, you will definitely have a place in the court in the future.
Class A does not accept incompetent and mediocre people.
"Dean...Dean, I...I was just joking, just a joke..." Akira's legs were shaking, how could he dare to offend the dean.
Although there is no official position in the courtyard, this is a person whom the emperor must treat with courtesy when he comes to see him.
His father was a sixth-rank ceremonial official and could hardly even see the dean.
He even began to suspect that he had not checked the almanac before going out today. How could he have flirted with a woman and accidentally offended the dean's disciple? He even spoke nonsense in front of the other person, preventing the other person from taking the imperial examination.
How dare he...
"A joke?" Yuanzi glanced at him suspiciously. "You were just teasing the girl, that was also a joke."
Huang Si quickly apologized to Song Ci with a smile, "It's all my fault. I beg you to forgive me, young lady."
Song Ci's smart eyes flashed, and she pursed her lips and said, "Where are the shoes? Don't you want me to compensate you?"
How could Akira dare to ask the other party to pay for it now! He wanted to take off these awful shoes and burn them right now!
"How dare I...it's all my shoes' fault. How could I have gotten in the way of the young lady?"
Song Ci smiled faintly, and two dimples appeared faintly on her pretty face.
