Dedicated to studying, yet forced into a chaotic situation.

Chapter 124 My heart aches; he deserves it.

Shi Sui looked down to check her skirt; one of the shoulder straps was broken, and the hem was all wrinkled.

She's obediently adjusting her skirt on the spot.

It was noisy behind her. Shi Sui straightened her skirt and turned around. She glanced at the huge fountain and her expression gradually became blank.

When did so many people start standing at the entrance of the banquet hall?

Just now, when she left the banquet hall, wasn't there no one there?

Oh no, she's in big trouble.

She broke school rules by assaulting someone on campus, and it was witnessed!

It was still seen by a group of people!

The onlookers were still in shock.

"So it really was Shi Sui who kicked Gu Chenyi just now?"

"It's absolutely true, I recorded it. Such white and long legs, slurp slurp."

"Damn, Shi Sui has such a sweet face, how come she kicks people so coolly!"

"Could this be the story of Lin Daiyu uprooting the willow tree?"

"Did Shi Sui and Gu Chenyi have some kind of dispute? Never mind, it's right for a beautiful woman to beat someone up."

"..."

Shi Sui had no idea what they were talking about; she only knew that she had broken school rules and was doomed.

Reported! Received a demerit! Expelled from school!

If it were a little over a month ago, when she first arrived at Xinhua, upon learning of her fate, she would have loved nothing more than to blow up the school and get out of the male and female protagonists' world (but the system stopped her).

But things are different now. Having finally gained a precious friendship, Shi Sui doesn't want to drop out of school.

She should do something to salvage the situation—out of the corner of her eye, she saw someone trying to climb out of the fountain.

Shi Sui took a quick step forward and kicked Meng Qiwen in the face.

With a shoe print on his face, he splashed water everywhere. Meng Qiwen, a big splash.

After kicking, Shi Sui belatedly realized—she hadn't saved anything at all!

So she glanced at the fountain pool and asked, "You lot, do you want me to pull you out?"

Upon hearing this, the people in the pool thought, "Should we pull them out and kick them back in?"

It immediately swam far away using a doggy paddle.

Shi Sui: "?"

Just as Shi Sui was watching them walk away in a daze, something suddenly draped over her shoulder, like the most comfortable autumn sunlight falling down.

The coat, still warm from the boy's body, was draped over her shoulders.

"Shi Sui, what happened to you?"

It was a banquet at the pool.

Shi Sui looked up and saw that he seemed to be in a hurry to come. His black hair was slightly messy, and after taking off his coat, he was only wearing a shirt, but it couldn't hide his noble air.

Chi Yan had a lot to say to her.

Why don't you reply to his messages?

—It was so beautiful this morning. Did you have fun at the park this afternoon?

It was his fault; he couldn't be with her because of other things, which allowed other women to take advantage of the situation.

My heart aches; he deserves it.

But when he saw the girl in front of him, dressed in a rumpled white dress, with her hair falling over her shoulders and only a silver crystal strap remaining, looking disheveled.

All I felt was concern.

On the other side of the fountain, at the entrance of the banquet hall, the crowd was about to go over to see what was going on when they saw Chi Yan appear beside Shi Sui.

He immediately stood still and peeked, activating the Bagua antenna.

Without a second's hesitation, Chi Yan is next on stage!

"Look! They're definitely having an affair!"

"Hehe, the last person you guys said had an affair with Shi Sui was Gu Chenyi, and he's already lying in the fountain, completely dumbfounded."

"Although I'm attracted to Chi Yan's looks, I think Shi Sui looks incredibly cool when she kicks people!"

"I support Shi Sui kicking Chi Yan into the fountain!"

Yan Ze was filled with a big question mark: What's going on? Is it Chi Ge's turn to get kicked away now?

Shouldn't we be shipping couples? Why do we all want to see Shi Sui kicking someone?!

……

Shi Sui stared at Chi Yan's face for a second before realizing she had gotten herself into trouble.

My eyes lit up – a savior!

It's time to latch onto the big brother's coattails.

She blinked pitifully and pointed to the other end of the fountain, where Meng Qiwen had just surfaced: "That person, he was about to lay a hand on me."

Those clear eyes and innocent expression completely captivated Chi Yan.

He was extremely nervous: "How are you? Did he hurt you?"

"Huh?" Shi Sui was taken aback for a moment, then shook her head. "No, I kicked them all into the water."

Chi Yan paused for a second. He had forgotten again that Shi Sui was an explosive little cake. On the surface, she was a soft and fragrant little cake, but the filling inside was a bomb.

I was fooled by her innocent and naive appearance again.

Seeing that her older brother didn't understand what she meant, Shi Sui became anxious and grabbed his arm, shaking it: "But I beat someone up at school!"

Chi Yan looked down at the sleeve that was being pulled, his eyes darkening: "So what if I hit you?"

"You can't hit people at school!" Shi Sui cried anxiously. "I'll be expelled!"

"It's alright, they're the ones who dropped out of school." Chi Yan turned his head and looked at the people who had climbed out of the pool.

Shi Sui looked up at him. The boy's profile was clearly defined, with his nose, lips, jawline, and Adam's apple. The shimmering water reflected on his face, making it seem as if he could easily drown someone.

She was terrified of being expelled from school, but her older brother could easily resolve the issue with a single word.

It feels so wonderful to cling to someone's leg.

I suddenly feel so safe.

Shi Sui stared blankly at the beauty mark under his eye, then quickly gave him a light hug: "Thank you."

The hug was brief, and Shi Sui said, "I need to tell Song Xinying that I have to pay her back for this dress."

As soon as she finished speaking, Shi Sui ran away.

Chi Yan stood there dumbfounded, staring at the girl's retreating figure, his cheeks flushed red as if they were about to burst into flames.

and many more.

Did Shi Sui hug him just now?

Ahhhhh, I hugged you, I hugged you (lasting for one minute).

He immediately wrapped his arms around himself. Great, now it's a two-way hug.

……

The only person who, besides Gu Chenyi, was the most accepting of Shi Sui kicking Gu Chenyi away was Song Xinying.

(Chi Yan did not see the kicking process)

After all, I've been cornered against a wall before.

She had long seen through the fact that the sweet girl was not simple at all; she was arrogant and strong-willed.

But to everyone's surprise, Shi Sui's fighting power was off the charts, kicking the four men flying!

My goodness, that's amazing! I can't love it too much!

Song Xinying's eyes sparkled as she saw Shi Sui jogging towards her.

"Xinying, I'm so sorry, I ruined this dress. Send me the purchase details and I'll pay you back." Shi Sui held the hem of the dress with both hands, looking very embarrassed.

"No, no, no," Song Xinying shook her head like a rattle-drum, saying, "It was originally what I wanted you to wear, it was a gift from me."

Shi Sui still felt bad: "How about I buy you a new dress?"

Song Xinying: "No need to pay compensation, we are family!"

Shi Sui: "?"

Song Xinying suddenly hugged him tightly, exclaiming, "Husband!"

Shi Sui: "???"

Do city people actually call girls "husband"? Another strange piece of knowledge I've gained.

From afar, Chi Yan saw Song Xinying clinging to his Shi Sui like a little bird!

So cute and clingy—Song Xinying, do you have to be so disgusting!

One second, two seconds, three seconds... Why hasn't Shi Sui pushed her away yet!

Chi Yan was so jealous that she went straight towards them in a fit of rage.

Although Song Xinying is a girl and her threat is far less than that of mistresses (Chi Yan doesn't understand lesbians), this guy can openly be intimate with her, which is extremely despicable!

Halfway there, Yan Ze suddenly appeared: "Brother Chi!"

Chi Yan glanced at him: "What is it?"

"I feel like Pei-ge is acting strange." Yan Ze stroked his chin thoughtfully. "He never attends dances, but he came tonight."

"Oh." Chi Yan didn't care and continued walking briskly.

“He invited Shi Sui to dance tonight,” Yan Ze continued.

"What!" Chi Yan was shocked, doubting that he had heard clearly, and stopped to look at him. "Say it again."

"Brother Pei invited Shi Sui to dance," Yan Ze said. "It's so strange, is Brother Pei looking for trouble? He keeps getting his feet stepped on by Shi Sui. I didn't think it was that bad at first, but just now Shi Sui kicked Meng Qiwen and the others flying. Her kicks must be incredibly strong. Brother Pei's feet are probably ruined..."

Chi Yan's head was about to explode.

Damn it! Pei Shuoxun is a truly insidious, cunning, despicable, and shameless scoundrel!

Just as Chi Yan was mentally labeling Pei Shuoxun with all sorts of derogatory terms, her phone vibrated; there was a new message.

Shangguan Ying: [Video]

Shangguan Ying: [You didn't tell me who Pei Shuoxun likes, but look, I know now.]

Shangguan Ying: [First come, first served. You want to steal your brother's childhood sweetheart, what's so secretive about that?]

The video cover features a young girl with curved eyebrows, the crystal chandelier of the banquet hall reflected in her eyes like falling stars.

The boy took her hand, and her skirt billowed out like a blooming pure white bellflower.

Chi Yan did not open the video.

I just want to slap Pei Shuoxun's face to pieces.
