Bai Xue, who was both spectating and interfering, widened her eyes in disbelief, updating her understanding of Han Mingyue. She thought to herself inwardly, "No wonder they say a cornered dog will leap over a wall... A cornered rabbit, uh! Hasn’t even bitten anyone yet..."
Han Mingyue’s thinking was much simpler, "Good thing I jumped out in ti, otherwise they might have left without waiting for ..."
After walking out of the school gate in silence, Bai Xue was the first who couldn’t stand the weird and awkward atmosphere.
"Just now when Teacher Jiang was reading the list of the study group, I listened carefully and didn’t hear your nas. Did neither of you join?"
The response she got was a simultaneous "Hmm" from both.
Then, no one spoke again.
Bai Xue thought, well, that’s that!
Nobody high-fived her, and she feared that her hand, no matter how hard she tried, could not make a clap by itself...

In her previous life, Zhen Yu had once read an online article that children can be so cruel out of ignorance, with endings that often send chills down your spine!
At that ti, she just smiled faintly, thinking it was rely squashing a few ants, no need to make a big deal out of it.
Because she did not know that one day, she would also experience the painful consequences brought by such ignorance.
Qingming had passed; the stove in the classroom had long been dismantled, and the temperature inside was not even as warm as the outdoor sunshine.
Almost every student, including Zhen Yu, would step out of the classroom to bask in the sun and warm up as soon as class ended.
Halfway through the third period, Zhen Yu felt a coldness under her butt and thought it was just the indoor chill, so she didn’t think too much about it.
But in just a short while, the coolness turned damp and wet.
While class was in session, Zhen Yu couldn’t make any significant movents, so she quietly reached under the seat cushion to feel.
She then discovered that under the cushion were not only wet sensations but also so fragnts that felt like ice and snow, cold and bone-chilling to the touch...
Almost imdiately, the faces of those girls who had surrounded Han Mingyue the night before erged before Zhen Yu’s eyes.
Was this a retaliatory attack? Zhen Yu couldn’t help but give a bitter smile.
She slightly leaned forward to pull the cushion from beneath her, pressing hard in the middle as she did it, trying her best to wipe the surface of the seat.
"What’s wrong?" Bai Xue leaned over and asked.
Zhen Yu shook her head and nudged her with an elbow. Teacher is watching! It’s not convenient to talk.
She persevered for another ten minutes or so, and finally, the bell rang indicating the end of class.
After putting her books back into the desk cabinet, Zhen Yu quickly put on her coat. Thankfully, her coat was of a dium length which could cover her soaked pants.
"Wait for !" Bai Xue called out urgently. She hadn’t expected Zhen Yu to move so quickly after class, so she was a bit slow in packing up.
"I can’t wait! My stomach hurts, if I co back late please ask for leave for !" With these words left behind, Zhen Yu took off running.
Her stomach was already roiling violently; it was truly the limit of her endurance to have held on until class ended.

When Bai Xue heard Zhen Yu had a stomachache, she moved a bit slower; she didn’t feel the need to use the restroom.
"Is ten minutes not enough for you to squat?" Bai Xue muttered, not too concerned.
After class had started for the fourth period, Zhen Yu was still not back in her classroom. When the teacher inquired, Bai Xue explained that Zhen Yu was experiencing diarrhea.
The teacher showed understanding for such a situation.
But as class went on for a while and still no Zhen Yu, Bai Xue began to get restless. Coupled with Han Mingyue frequently looking back at her with urgent glances.
She raised her hand abruptly and said, "Teacher! I want to go check on Zhen Yu! She’s been gone too long!"
The teacher hesitated only for a second before nodding, "Go ahead! Go see how she’s doing!"
Bai Xue donned her coat and ran out of the classroom, hurrying to the girls’ restroom.
Before she even entered, she was already yelling, "Xiao Yu! Xiao Yu, are you there?"
"I am!" Zhen Yu’s voice was faint, but since the restroom was empty during class, Bai Xue could still hear it.
She imdiately breathed a sigh of relief and rushed in.
Zhen Yu was still squatting in the stall, and the first thing she asked when she saw her was, "Did you bring any paper?"
"Ah?" Bai Xue was stunned! "You didn’t bring any paper?"
"I did! But I’ve run out." Zhen Yu replied with an embarrassed look.
"...Here!" Bai Xue fumbled in her pocket and handed a stack of tissues to Zhen Yu.
After sorting herself out, Zhen Yu followed Bai Xue out of the girls’ bathroom.
As soon as she left the restroom, she said, "I need to go straight ho! Could you ask for leave on my behalf back in class?"
"Why?" Bai Xue asked, puzzled.
Zhen Yu turned around to lift her clothes and show her, "My pants are wet! And looking at this, I might need to go again soon!"
"How did your pants get so wet?" Bai Xue was extrely surprised!
What on earth had Zhen Yu gone through during this half a class? Could it be that she couldn’t hold it in...
Zhen Yu spoke with a mix of emotions, "Soone put ice and snow under my seat cushion, and after sitting for half a class, it turned into this! Otherwise, why would I get diarrhea?"
"That’s too much! It must be because of yesterday’s incident! It’s all Han Mingyue’s fault!" At tis like this, Bai Xue’s emotional quotient was astonishingly high...
"No ti to talk! I need to run! I’m afraid I won’t make it halfway..." As Zhen Yu spoke, she broke into a sprint!
Fortunately, the Han Family had given her a set of keys long ago so she could get ho on her own!
——
Unexpectedly, Zhen Yu, who had only diarrhea in the morning, had beco so severely ill by noon that she was vomiting and had diarrhea.
When Han Mingyue and Han Jiayang got ho from school at noon, they saw her looking utterly exhausted, slumping on the sofa.
In a panic, Han Mingyue wanted to take her to the clinic nearby for an IV drip, but she refused to go!
Of course, she refused. Zhen Yu’s stomach was still hurting! She was afraid she wouldn’t find a toilet on the way! She couldn’t even bear to think about what might happen...
Han Jiayang felt helpless and looked at Han Mingyue, "What do we do now, Brother?"
Han Mingyue was also frantic inside. After hesitating for a mont, he decisively stood up and went out, "I’ll go to the clinic to ask! See if they can prescribe so dicine for Xiao Yu to take!"
"Okay! I’ll stay ho and watch her!" Han Jiayang imdiately responded.
——
After Han Mingyue brought back the dicine, Han Jiayang got started on lunch since they still had classes in the afternoon!
The lunch was reheated by Mrs. Han in a big pot. Zhen Yu’s stomach was churning, but to take the dicine ’after the al,’ she still forced herself to eat a few bites of rice.
Yet, she vomited again less than two minutes after taking the dicine...
Han Jiayang turned to Han Mingyue beside him, "Brother! She threw up the dicine, right? Will it still work?"
Han Mingyue shook his head subconsciously. He didn’t know; he was just worriedly watching Zhen Yu.
At that mont, Zhen Yu was still crouching by the bucket, unable to lift her head, looking extrely miserable.
When she finally caught her breath, she imdiately gestured with her hands for the brothers to stay away from her.
"Xiao Yu, shall I help you get up?" Han Mingyue ignored her gesture, stepped forward, and helped Zhen Yu up by the arm.
"I want to wash my face." Zhen Yu covered her mouth and nose with her other hand, her voice coming through the gaps in her fingers.
"Jiaoyang! Fetch so warm water!"
"Oh! Okay!"
