Chapter 24: After Class, She Came Into My Arms (22)
However...
Jiang Xiaorui exhaled a puff of smoke and laughed. “Just a nouveau riche, what’s there to be so arrogant about? Do you really think Su Jing likes you?”
He Meigui pushed aside the girls blocking her way, walked over, and sneered, “If he doesn’t like me, do you think he likes you?”
She was about to reach out, but a girl nearby slapped her hand away.
He Meigui glared at the girl but ignored her, looking at the red mark on her pale hand. She lifted her gaze to study Jiang Xiaorui, clicking her tongue.
“So ugly!”
“You—!”
Jiang Xiaorui was furious. What she hated most was being compared to He Meigui—He Meigui was beautiful.
Very beautiful.
Although Jiang Xiaorui was attractive herself, she was still lacking compared to He Meigui, so she always believed that Su Jing liked He Meigui because she was prettier.
Today, she was determined to ruin He Meigui’s face.
“Hold her down for me! If anything happens, I’ll take the blame!”
Hearing this, the girls grew bolder.
They stepped forward and pinned He Meigui.
The only reason He Meigui didn’t take these people seriously was because of her father.
She couldn’t possibly win in a one-on-one fight, especially when there were so many on the other side.
But—
He Meigui raised her chin, her face still full of disdain. “If you have the guts, hit me! Even if my face is ruined, Su Jing will only love me! He’ll never like you, you ugly freak!”
Her tone was unbearably arrogant.
The hand hanging at her side trembled slightly.
He Meigui signaled to Asi with her eyes, urging her not to interfere.
But Asi suddenly started laughing.
Her voice was soft and sweet.
In the noisy restroom, it was strikingly out of place.
“What do you want?” Lou Yunyu walked straight over, her gaze unfriendly as she glared at Asi.
Everyone in the restroom turned to look at Asi.
The young girl’s lips curved, clearly delighted, and two round dimples flickered on her cheeks.
Her jet-black eyes were innocent and cute.
Jiang Xiaorui’s gaze darkened. He Meigui had just called her an ugly freak, and now this girl was laughing.
She must be here to stir trouble.
Jiang Xiaorui lifted her chin. “Are you with her?”
Lou Yunyu quickly shook her head. “She’s with He Meigui. Even the teachers like her.”
Her words, spoken in front of a group of troublemakers, carried a subtle implication.
“Bring her over here, too.”
As if she were summoning an object, Asi was small and soft.
She looked easy to bully.
“Jiang Xiaorui, have some decency! This is between the two of us, what do you want to drag her in for?” He Meigui was angry, but pinned by the girls, she couldn’t move at all.
Actually, Asi had just been laughing at Meigui. At first, she thought Meigui was tough, someone no one could bully, but now—
She seemed a bit weak.
Asi pressed her lips together, her dark eyes glittering.
Then she heard Jiang Xiaorui say with utter disdain, “I just don’t like the look of her, is that a problem?”
Don’t like the look of her...
Asi’s little face instantly sank, her lips tightly pressed.
She walked over to Jiang Xiaorui. For some reason, the girls couldn’t stop Asi at all.
With a simple push from the girl, they stumbled back several steps.
Asi stood in front of Jiang Xiaorui, her face serious. “I don’t like the look of you, either.”
Hmph.
After speaking, she didn’t bother to look at Jiang Xiaorui, but turned to He Meigui. “Meigui, let’s go.”
With a casual sweep of her hand, the group of girls winced in pain.
Asi took He Meigui’s hand and asked softly, “Should we hit them?”
Asi remembered that girl had seemed about to burn her with a cigarette earlier.
The group of girls were nasty, too, gripping Meigui tightly.
She’d seen Meigui frown in pain.
