Chapter 56: Embarrassment

After eating the udon made by Yan Wei, Xia Yu returned to his room contentedly and looked forward to the dessert that Yan Wei had mentioned.

At exactly eight o’clock, he arrived at An Siyao’s place.

Opening his eyes, he saw the familiar driver.

The public schools in Zilang City were on holiday, which had no effect on Yaoguang City, let alone Dongzhi Xiang Girls’ Academy, which was a private school.

Thinking carefully, Zhong Yunxin studying at Dongzhi Xiang was almost inevitable, as Dongzhi Xiang was the most famous girls’ academy in the area.

The last time he had seen Zhong Yunxin was ten years ago; he wondered what the girl looked like now.

Arriving at the school gate, Xia Yu got out of the car, and the Feng sisters, Feng Yujia and Feng Yumo, were already waiting for him at the school entrance.

Watching the two sisters surround their young mistress affectionately, the driver sighed.

His gaze then turned to the Dongzhi Xiang signboard.

Before, he had fantasized about sending his daughter to study here.

Fortunately, he had no daughter yet.

From the relationship between the Feng sisters and their young mistress, the driver deduced that Dongzhi Xiang was probably not the innocent academy it seemed!

He wasn’t as open-minded as the upper class; if his daughter came home with a female partner, he’d go crazy.

Sighing again, he started the engine.

Meanwhile, Xia Yu chatted with the Feng sisters while pondering his own plan.

At the entrance of the teaching building, there was a large bulletin board where various announcements were posted, and Zhong Yunxin’s disciplinary notice would certainly be there too.

At that time, as long as he showed a little interest, the Feng sisters would tell him everything.

Then he could find one or two angles to start from.

When they were still some distance from the entrance, Xia Yu heard a scream.

Xia Yu and the other two immediately ran to the entrance.

The scream had come from nearby students, who were looking in the direction of the bulletin board.

Beside the bulletin board, Xia Yu saw a red-haired girl dressed in a leather jacket and leather pants.

A silver earphone hung around the girl’s neck, and she also had earrings.

Such a girl standing in the elite-filled Dongzhi Xiang Girls’ Academy was like a suona horn mixed into a symphony.

Glancing at the girl’s face, Xia Yu recognized her as Zhong Yunxin.

The notices on the bulletin board were fixed with magnets. Zhong Yunxin pulled down an entire panel of notices, threw them aside, and then tore her own disciplinary notice into pieces.

After doing all this, Zhong clapped her hands and strutted out casually.

Xia Yu and the other three were at the main gate; if Zhong wanted to go out, she had to pass them.

Before Xia Yu could act, Feng Yujia stepped forward to block her.

“What are you doing!” Feng Yujia’s presence was overwhelming.

Although she was somewhat timid when facing teachers, that was because they were teachers, while Zhong Yunxin was merely a second-year student.

Her imposing demeanor slightly intimidated Zhong Yunxin. If she were an ordinary person, she might have backed off after being frightened, but as a rebellious girl, Zhong instead felt a surge of defiance against such intimidation.

“None of your business!” Zhong raised her head defiantly.

“I’m the student council president. Who do you think you are?” Wanting to impress Xia Yu, Feng Yujia adopted a firm attitude, “Put all the notices back up and come with me to the student council!”

Feng Yujia felt that her posture at this moment must have been very dignified. However, Zhong simply pushed her, and she fell to the ground.

“What, you think being president makes you special? Go kiss your teacher’s ass!” Zhong’s expression was smug.

Zhong’s sudden physical aggression caught Feng Yujia off guard, and sitting on the ground, she felt a surge of injustice.

There were many students around, and soon enough, the story of her being pushed down helplessly by Zhong would spread throughout the school.

Then, how would classmates and teachers look at her? A student council president being bullied by an ordinary girl a year younger!

If she retaliated immediately, she could regain her dignity, but as a young lady, how could she ever have physically fought anyone?

In her world, rallying a few friends for verbal threats was already the height of viciousness.

Her eyes filled with tears.

“Just this much ability,” Zhong looked at Feng Yujia with a victorious expression, then turned to leave.

However, another figure blocked her path.

“Move!” Zhong pushed again at Xia Yu, who was blocking her way.

Xia Yu grabbed her hand, pulled her forcefully, and tripped her with his foot, throwing her to the ground.

He used quite a bit of strength, and Zhong landed with a loud thud.

The girl couldn’t get up immediately.

For the moment ignoring Zhong, Xia Yu went to Feng Yujia and helped her up.

Holding Xia Yu’s hand and feeling supported, Feng Yujia felt even more wronged. Although Zhong had been knocked down, it had nothing to do with her. The rumors would still say she was powerless.

At this moment, Xia Yu leaned close to her ear.

Feng Yujia’s face immediately turned red. Physical contact was indeed a good way to comfort someone, but wouldn’t it be inappropriate in public?

“Say ‘take her away.'” After speaking, Xia Yu turned his face away.

So it wasn’t comfort.

A little disappointed, Feng Yujia understood Xia Yu’s meaning.

She straightened her posture, pretending to be cold and ruthless, looking down at Zhong on the ground.

“Take her away.” Throwing out this cold sentence, Feng Yujia turned and walked toward the student council.

Xia Yu picked up Zhong Yunxin, gave the struggling girl a bit more of a reprimand to make her quiet, and pushed her toward the student council.

Feng Yumo, who had been trembling nearby, immediately followed.

After they left, the students around began to whisper.

“An Siyao is so amazing!”

“Feng Yujia is also amazing. That line ‘take her away’ was so cool!”

“An Siyao is even more amazing. She subdued Zhong Yunxin in one move!”

“An Siyao usually looks so gentle and has never bullied anyone. We wouldn’t have known she was so capable without this incident!”

“Feng Yumo is so lucky, being with An Siyao and Feng Yujia, it feels so safe!”

“I heard there’s even a fan club for An Siyao at school.”

“Really?”

Besides the students who remained in place, several followed Xia Yu and the others until the three entered the student council and closed the door, then reluctantly left.

Inside the student council room, Xia Yu pushed Zhong Yunxin onto a chair.

He remained expressionless, not looking at the struggling Zhong Yunxin, but instead turned to Feng Yujia.

“How to handle it?” Xia Yu asked softly.

Unfortunately, Feng Yujia couldn’t grasp the implication in Xia Yu’s words about cooperating to intimidate Zhong Yunxin. In fact, even if she did understand, she couldn’t act it out properly.

“Hand her over to the teacher?” Feng Yujia asked.

“You think I’m afraid of the teacher?” Zhong Yunxin smiled.

Xia Yu grabbed her shoulders and pressed hard.

“Pain, pain, pain! What are you trying to do? I’m going to tell the teacher!” Zhong struggled.

“You’re going to tell the teacher?” Xia Yu stared into Zhong Yunxin’s eyes.

Zhong turned her head away and didn’t answer.

Previously, the classmates she encountered couldn’t beat her, but now she had met someone with superior martial skills who dared to actually lay hands on her, leaving her completely helpless.

“Pity, even if you do tell the teacher, they won’t believe you.” Xia Yu’s fingers pressed even harder, “We have three obedient girls here who can testify, while you can only prove yourself as a delinquent. Even thinking about it with your feet, you know who the teacher will believe.”

“In other words, I can beat you up here and then tell the teacher you fell by yourself, and the teacher would still believe me.” Xia Yu smiled at Zhong Yunxin, “Want to try?”

From the pain in her shoulders, Zhong knew Xia Yu wasn’t bluffing. She looked at him in disbelief.

I’m supposed to be the delinquent, the one threatening these young ladies, so why has it turned around like this!
