Among the teachers that ca to sumr camp one of them was a doctor from the school’s dispensary. She checked An Xiulan and found nothing major with the girl aside from the fact that she got startled by being pushed into the water. And this was the reason why the young girl passed out.
The dispensary doctor inford everyone that the girl was fine and only passed out because of fear. All of them sighed in relief. That night when she was running a fever, she was going through another brutal dream of her past life. The sa chapter of her life where she was oppressed and neglected.
It was only in the morning did she open her eyes to find a man in a black dress sitting beside her. From his dark circles, she could tell he hadn’t slept all night.
“Uncle Zed, why are you?” An Xiulan asked in a hoarse voice. She felt her throat dry and painful.
“Missy, how are you feeling now?” Zed, the mber of her security team asked in a worried tone.
“I feel weird, “An Xiulan replied. She didn’t recall anything about last night when she was stuck in an endless nightmare. “But why are you here? Is mom here too?”.
Zed shook his head. “Madam will be here if you aren’t feeling well.”
“I’m alright. What happened to ?” An Xiulan asked while furrowing her brows.
“You don’t rember the Young Master pushing you into the water?” Zed asked in a soft voice.
“Hah! You think Lu Xuan can push into the water and I will let him? I’m more powerful than that son of the devil, “An Xiulan scoffed but her throat hurt too much.
“He didn’t push you?” Zed asked, half relieved.
“He doesn’t have in it him to push into the water, “An Xiulan said, flexing her nonexistent muscles.
“Missy, your friend punched Young Master, “Zed imdiately snitched. “Young Master’s nose was badly bleeding. He was in lots of pain.”
“Oh?” An Xiulan was concerned but not about Lu Xuan. “What did Lu Xuan do to get blows from Zixin? I’m sure he deserves it.”
“Missy, Young Master is your twin, “Zed reminded her.
“And Zixin is my best friend, “An Xiulan argued. ” Lu Xuan has been mocking and taunting him. Zixin never retorted or punched his obnoxious face. I’m sure you aren’t telling sothing. So, Uncle Zed, kindly tell the full story before you set my friendship on fire.”
Zed cleared his throat and began telling her the full version of the story. He said how everyone had been misunderstanding that Lu Xuan was a bad boy because of Han Zixin. Everyone was pointing fingers at Lu Xuan that he had hurt his own sister.
“Oh, so this is what happened, “An Xiulan said, pondering to herself with her finger patting her cheek in a serious manner. “Uncle Zed, I’m hungry. I want to eat hot chicken congee. I will see you all out.”
She took half an hour taking a shower and change into a fresh pair of clothes. When she saw everyone sitting in the breakfast place, she approached them.
“Student An, how are you feeling now?” A teacher asked. They had heard from the doctor that she was fine now but they still wanted to hear from her. It was a big responsibility organising a sumr camp and not letting anyone get injured.
“I’m alright, sir. Thank you for your concern, “An Xiulan smiled. “I just want to make it clear that Lu Xuan didn’t push into the water. He only happened to be here. I was grabbing Xueyun’s clothes when he suddenly appeared before and I got startled, resulting in my foot slipping.”
“Why did Han Zixin punch Lu Xuan then?” A student asked as they looked at Han Zixin who was sitting there like a rock and his eyes on her all this ti.
“It was a reflex action, “An Xiulan said.
“Reflex action?” Lu Xuan scoffed under his breath. ‘Motherf*cker, broke hai jaw! It was intentional and she was calling it reflex action.’
“You are lying to save your brother’s reaction, ” The history geek said with a scoff.
“Excuse !” An Xiulan reacted , her hand on her waist as she looked at the boy with dark-rimd glasses. She then pointed at Lu Xuan who was sitting there with a purple jaw. “You think my twin has a reputation to save? He bullies students. He bullies teachers. He bullies all! What reputation is there left for to save? Nonsense!”
Song Xueyun choked on the air when she heard An Xiulan. Soone tell this naive girl that this wasn’t how she should take Lu Xuan’s side. Instead of proving him not guilty, she was slandering him in return. She stood up and said, “I was there when she fell into the water. Lu Xuan didn’t push her. She slipped and I saw it with my own eyes.”
“Students, since the matter is cleared, have breakfast before we schedule another activity of the day, “The Teacher ordered and the students quietly took their seats and began eating their breakfast.
Soon, the students began disappearing after having their breakfast. Currently, Lu Xuan and An Xiulan were sitting opposite to each other at the breakfast table along with Han Zixin and Song Xueyun.
“Shouldn’t you apologise to ?” An Xiulan suddenly said.
“Excuse ?” Lu Xuan looked at her as if she had grown two heads overnight. “Didn’t you tell everyone how you fell into the water because of your own mistake? I didn’t push you!”
“Can you be nice to her for once?” Song Xueyun slapped her chopsticks on the table. “She cleared your na and you are treating her like that.”
“She cleared my na but she didn’t scold him for breaking my jaw!” Lu Xuan shouted. “She always has excuses to justify his actions. I don’t like it! Xueyun, it wasn’t just but even you didn’t find out that there was sothing wrong with my sister when she fell into the water.”
