Chapter 76 Kicking Zhong Zhiwan into the Water
The girl was taken aback: "Throw it into the lake?"
Zhong Zhiwan said casually, "If you throw it in the trash can, it might just crawl out on its own."
"Isn't that too cruel?" the girl hesitated. "Couldn't we just return the pig to Class 19 or hand it over to the head of moral education?"
"Do you think the students in Class 19 will abide by the school rules?" Zhong Zhiwan's expression grew even more indifferent. "How can they learn anything without a lesson?"
The girl thought this made sense, but still hesitated: "But..."
Seeing that she didn't move, Zhong Zhiwan lost her patience and simply went forward and picked up the teacup pig crawling on the ground.
Suddenly lifted into the air, Dudu was a little panicked, kicking and struggling with its four little hooves.
Zhong Zhiwan didn't care about any of that. She walked to the lake and threw it in.
The teacup pig was too small; it barely made a ripple before disappearing without a trace.
Zhong Zhiwan took out a wet wipe and wiped her hands to make sure they were free of any dirty smell before preparing to leave.
Before she could turn around, a powerful force came from behind and kicked her directly into the lake.
With a "thump," the movement was so fast that the girl in the group didn't even have time to react.
Two seconds later, she turned around in astonishment.
Then I saw the girl standing by East Lake, holding the teacup pig that Zhong Zhiwan had just thrown into the lake.
The mist in those hazy phoenix eyes dissipated, resembling a frozen lake.
At that moment, the ice shattered with a "crack".
The air was chilling and the cold was biting.
The girl couldn't help but shudder.
She even saw murderous intent inside.
"Help... glug, help!" Zhong Zhiwan was stunned and panicked even more. "I can't swim, help me!"
But no one moved.
"Damn it, Zhong Zhiwan, you're too ruthless!" The henchman who had been running up behind him was panting and furious. "What you did is no different from murder!"
Doesn't a pet pig's life matter?
Zhong Zhiwan couldn't hear anything anymore; she was panicked and on the verge of collapse: "Help! Help me!"
The girl finally came to her senses, looking a little dazed: "Zhiwan, I can't swim either."
"Help me!" Driven by the instinct for survival, Zhong Zhiwan cried out to the girl, "Cousin, save me..."
However, Ying Zijin didn't even glance at her, her head bowed as she tended to Dudu in her arms.
Zhong Zhiwan struggled a few more times, and it looked like she was about to sink to the bottom.
When she saw Jiang Ran walking towards her in the distance, her hope was rekindled: "Jiang Ran! Jiang Ran, save me!"
Jiang Ran naturally heard it and looked up at the lake.
His expression was indifferent, a mocking smile playing on his lips, cold and aloof.
It was like a bucket of cold water had been poured over her head; Zhong Zhiwan's heart turned cold.
The pain was like angina, with constant spasms.
After confirming that Dudu was alright, Ying Zijing looked up and said, "Pull her out."
Two henchmen stepped forward and pulled Zhong Zhiwan, who was struggling in the lake, out of the water.
Without the slightest pity, he threw it directly on the ground.
Zhong Zhiwan's face turned bright red as she coughed painfully, "Cough cough cough..."
She was soaking wet and looked utterly disheveled.
As more and more students gathered around East Lake, they all witnessed this scene and were astonished.
Only then did the girl dare to step forward and help Zhong Zhiwan up, whispering, "Zhiwan, let me take you to the hospital."
Zhong Zhiwan finally caught her breath, her body shivering from the cold.
She glanced at Jiang Ran, who remained unmoved, and felt even more distressed. She quickly left with the help of the girl.
"Pah!" the underling spat. "She's called a goddess? They're blind."
"Father Ying, I'm sorry, hit me if you want." Xiu Yu felt very guilty. "It was my fault for not watching Dudu properly, and it ran away."
In the past few days, Dudu has learned to walk.
Sometimes it runs very fast, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
"It's not your fault." Ying Zijing took out a small pill and slowly fed it to Dudu. "Nobody expected this."
The pill worked very quickly; Dudu woke up in just over ten seconds.
It rubbed its pink little nose against her palm and made a happy humming sound.
Ying Zijing stroked its head, her gaze softening slightly.
"Luckily, Father Ying arrived in time." The younger brother was also shaken. "If it had been a few seconds later, Dudu would be gone."
Wait, but he remembered that their father, Ying, was still busy at that time.
Why the sudden decision to go to East Lake?
It was as if they already knew about it.
The younger brother scratched his head, not thinking much of it.
Ying Zijing put Dudu on her shoulder and casually rolled up her school uniform sleeves: "You guys go back, I'm going to the counseling room."

On the road ahead.
"Zhiwan, you shouldn't have messed with Ying Zijin." The girl was still terrified. "Have you forgotten how she threw Ying Feifei into the trash can back then?"
Zhong Zhiwan pursed her lips, her hands trembling with anger.
How did she know someone would see it?
What she didn't expect was that Ying Zijing would dare to be so ruthless even to her.
If word gets out, isn't Ying Zijing afraid people will call her vicious?
And Jiang Ran.
Zhong Zhiwan's eyes reddened.
As the two were leaving the school, they happened to run into He Xun, who was returning from outside.
He Xun frowned: "What's wrong with you?"
"Teacher He, I'm fine." Zhong Zhiwan forced a smile. "I just need to go to the hospital."
"Teacher He, you don't know, ever since Ying Zijin left the elite class, she's really gotten worse and worse." The girl was quite angry. "She just kicked Zhiwan into East Lake."
He Xun's expression changed instantly.
East Lake is very deep, and there have been drowning incidents there before, which the school takes very seriously.
This already constitutes attempted murder.
"Go to the hospital first." He Xun hailed a taxi for Zhong Zhiwan. "I'll talk to the principal about this."
“I don’t want to trouble Teacher He.” Zhong Zhiwan lowered her head. “After all, we are cousins. She has a temper, and I should put up with it.”
He Xun frowned even more, and his dislike for Ying Zijing deepened.
He said casually, "No trouble at all."
Zhong Zhiwan coughed a few times: "Then thank you, Teacher He."

At that moment, Mr. Zhong was surfing Weibo and chatting with netizens.
He looked up after hearing the door open.
Seeing Zhong Zhiwan's tear-streaked face, Grandpa Zhong was taken aback: "What happened? Why is Wanwan crying?"
Zhong Zhiwan bit her lip and didn't respond, her eyes filled with tears, looking pitiful.
"Old Master, do you know what that adopted daughter of the Ying family has done?" Madam Zhong said, suppressing her anger. "She kicked Wanwan into the lake for the sake of a pet."
"Wanwan can't swim, and it's still quite chilly in March. What if something bad happens to her?"
She never expected that an adopted daughter would have such audacity.
Zhong Zhiwan was a pampered young lady whom she had personally raised; she had never suffered such humiliation.
Madam Zhong spoke again, her voice cold: "Old Master, I can't just let this matter go like this."
Zhong Zhiwan is the granddaughter of Old Master Zhong. Even the real eldest daughter of the Ying family is not as favored in the Zhong family as Zhong Zhiwan.
Even if Grandpa Zhong is confused, surely he knows who is surnamed Zhong?
Many people probably didn't understand.
Ying Luwei is the daughter of Old Madam Ying and is of the same generation as Zhong Manhua. The real adopted daughter was adopted by Zhong Manhua and Ying Zhenting and has not yet appeared.
Zhong Zhiwan is Mrs. Zhong's daughter, and Zhong Manhua calls Mrs. Zhong her sister-in-law.
I think the relationships are all sorted out.
