As soon as Yun Xi arrived at the school gates on Monday morning, she was stopped by Xiang Yuanjiu, who had seemingly co out of nowhere.
Seeing him looking lively and active, she surmised that his foot had healed.
“Girl, your ointnt was really effective. My sprain has already healed.”
Fearing that she wouldn’t believe him, Xiang Yuanjiu thrust out his foot and rubbed his ankle. “Look, it’s all to your credit.”
“If you’re all right, go away, and don’t just show up in front of again.”
“Don’t be like that. I haven’t repaid you yet.”
Saying that, he waved to his two underlings who quickly ran over with all the breakfast pastries and snacks they had brought to Yun Xi.
“Sister-in-law, this is our boss repaying you.”
“Yeah! Sister-in-law, we have brought everything you girls like to eat...”
“Shut up!” Yun Xi felt her headache coming on when she heard them call her that na.
The two underlings were stunned by her yelling and looked at Xiang Yuanjiu.
“Boss, sister-in-law won’t accept the presents.”
“Boss, I guess sister-in-law doesn’t like them...”
“Would you all please shut up!”
It was ti for school and all the students passing by the school gates were looking over and staring.
Yun Xi couldn’t bear it and gave Xiang Yuanjiu a cold glance. “Xiang Yuanjiu, how can you repay like this?”
She was a senior in high school. How could she mingle with a man in society?
Xiang Yuanjiu didn’t understand why she suddenly looked so furious and asked with a dazed expression, “What’s wrong? Don’t you like these treats? Tell what you want, and I will make them buy it.”
“I want you all to go away right now.” Yun Xi gave him a look and waved her hand impatiently.
“Don’t show up in front of again!”
Regardless of whether or not he had been sent by Han Wanling as part of her power ga, Yun Xi was unwilling to drag innocent people into her problems.
Xiang Yuanjiu scratched his head and looked confused. “What did I do wrong? I’m here to show my gratitude...”
Just as Yun Xi was about to answer, Liang Xinyi’s patronizing voice sounded from behind her, “Yun Xi, what are you doing, hooking up with n in society?”
Upon hearing her voice, Yun Xi had a sick feeling in her gut. As expected, she turned her head and saw the horoom teacher standing next to Liang Xinyi.
Before she could speak, Liang Xinyi took the lead.
She didn’t slander her, but rather pretended to plead for Yun Xi.
“Teacher Xu, don’t get this wrong! It’s not what you think. Yun Xi has good grades and is attractive, so it’s normal for soone to chase after her. There’s no way she got involved with these n of her own accord.”
The eagerness and passionate way she defended Yun Xi made it seem as if she felt agonized that Yun Xi would do such a thing.
People who didn’t know her would probably think she was really worried for her cousin and was fearful that she would go down a stray path.
Yun Xi couldn’t help but sneer as she listened.
Liang Xinyi’s words, both overtly and indirectly, were insinuating that she was dating this man.
Their school had strict standards, so everyone knew the consequences for associating with these types of n. Of course, Liang Xinyi couldn’t resist slandering her.
Yun Xi looked at Liang Xinyi contemptuously. “Cousin, I thank you.”
“Yun Xi, please clearly explain the situation to the horoom teacher. It’s not your fault, they must be pestering you...”
Teacher Xu glanced at the two n who were carrying all the treats, then at Xiang Yuanjiu, who was their leader, and he did not look pleased.
Frowning, he asked, “Yun Xi, what’s going on here?”
Yun Xi shrugged innocently. “I don’t know them.”
Teacher Xu had always been partial toward Yun Xi, an intelligent and upstanding student, so naturally he did not want her to have anything to do with these n, so as not to ruin her reputation.
“If you don’t know them, what are you standing here for? Class is about to start, hurry up and go inside.”
Just as Yun Xi was about to say okay, Li Sinuo’s voice suddenly sounded from the sidelines.
“Teacher Xu, I clearly saw Yun Xi go out with them by climbing over the wall last Friday, and they went across the street to eat noodles together. So you saying you don’t know them doesn’t seem convincing, does it?”
