The Female Assassin Pretends to Be a Lamb in the Campus-Chapter 5: Will You Apologize
Chapter 5
The door was kicked open by someone from inside. The door panel slammed into the two girls' faces, and a bucket of water that had been held up high poured all over them.
"Ah––"
Screams of pain and crashing sounds accompanied by the splashing water echoed throughout the bathroom.
The two girls were knocked back again and again by the door, colliding with several onlooking girls behind them. They fell onto the wet floor in a mess, disheveled beyond recognition amidst the one after another shrill screams.
Qiao Ying slowly kicked the bouncing door back with her toes. Her hands tucked into her jacket pockets, she looked down coldly at the few who were drenched like drowned rats on the floor.
She slowly raised her eyes and looked at Ye Jingning - Mu Jiaohua.
When Qiao Lingling came to the bathroom and ran into this scene, she turned around and left without a thought, running away swiftly, afraid that being a second slower would get her "swindled" by Qiao Ying, and then everyone would know this stupid fat pig was her elder sister.
Qiao Ying watched Qiao Lingling run away without paying much attention. She stepped out of the cubicle, directly striding over the few messy girls on the ground. Her icy eyes fell on Ye Jingning.
Ye Jingning's face was slightly pale due to the shock.
She had bullied Qiao Ying for so long that this was the first time seeing Qiao Ying fight back. Watching her approach step by step, so different from the weak and useless Qiao Ying she knew, she couldn't help but retreat.
Until her back met the door panel, she could retreat no further.
"You, what are you trying to..." What?
Before she could finish speaking, Qiao Ying's fist came flying towards her face.
"Ah––"
Ye Jingning cried out in fright and shut her eyes tightly.
But the expected pain did not come.
Ye Jingning opened her eyes doubtfully to see Qiao Ying's big face right before her eyes. Qiao Ying's fist was right next to her ear.
Before Ye Jingning could recover from the shock, she heard Qiao Ying's icy warning: "If there's a next time, you won't be so lucky."
Looking at the dumbfounded Ye Jingning, Qiao Ying felt it was humiliating to get into an open conflict with these people.
Qiao Ying retracted her hand and tucked it back into her pocket before walking away nonchalantly.
Ye Jingning slowly turned her head and saw a sunken dent on the solid wooden door, with dense cracks radiating outward.
It took her quite a while to calm down. She looked back incredulously at the few miserable followers on the ground and realized belatedly that she had actually been intimidated by that dead fatso. She was instantly furious.
With a twisted expression, she said, "Qiao Ying, just you wait!"
On her way back, Qiao Ying saw Qiao Yi appear in the corridor outside her classroom, looking around anxiously as if searching for something. Seeing her, he immediately walked over, "Sis."
"What's the matter?"
"I heard someone say you were cornered in the bathroom."
"So you came to see if I was okay?" Seeing him acknowledge it, Qiao Ying realized, "I said, I was too lazy to bother with them before."
Thinking how her cheap younger brother had limped all the way up and down the stairs on his one good leg to rush over, Qiao Ying couldn't help but feel moved.
As she had always found it hard to express herself, she said a couple more sentences with a slightly consoling tone, "I'm fine."
"So he's the fatso's brother. A cripple matched with a fatso, their genes are really evenly distributed in this family, huh."
An inappropriate ridicule broke the atmosphere.
Qiao Ying turned to look and saw two boys coming out from the next class, one of whom was Qiao Ying's secret crush in her previous life - Xu Mingchen.
Qiao Ying glanced at him indifferently and commented: He's just decent looking at most, not half as pleasing to the eye as her cheap younger brother.
Qiao Yi just had a limp, which allowed Xu Mingchen to take advantage of that loophole.
Qiao Ying's gaze then shifted to the boy who had just spoken.
"She's a fatso herself, and her brother's a cripple. With those conditions, she still dares to like you." The boy said to Xu Mingchen.
Xu Mingchen's expression was a bit ugly. It seemed that being liked by Qiao Ying was shameful. Xu Mingchen said to that boy, "Enough."
Seeing Xu Mingchen displeased, the boy grimaced and said to Qiao Yi again, "Hey cripple, it's almost time for class. Go back now or you'll be late."
Qiao Yi's fair and delicate face flushed red, and his hands clenched into fists at his sides as he endured silently.
"Let's go, let's go. How boring." Before the boy finished speaking, a fat hand grabbed his collar and pushed his whole body against the wall.
His back and head knocked painfully against it, and he cried out.
Looking up, he came face to face with Qiao Ying's big face.
"Fatso, looking to get beat? Let me go!" The boy was as thin as a monkey. He struggled twice but couldn't break free, and was instantly furious. He cursed and swore.
"Know how to apologize? Speak." Qiao Ying said.
"Apologize your sister! Get your filthy hands off me!"
"I said apologize!" Qiao Ying yelled coldly.
The boy was stunned by her forceful yell. Facing Qiao Ying's suddenly icy eyes, he was somewhat baffled.
"What are you doing, let him go." Xu Mingchen said unpleasantly to Qiao Ying. If not for this boy, he wouldn't have wanted to say a word to Qiao Ying at all.
Seeing Xu Mingchen speak up, the boy immediately went from startled to sneering. He looked scornfully at Qiao Ying, as if saying: With one word from Xu Mingchen, you fatso should immediately do as he says.
Unexpectedly, Qiao Ying didn't even glance at Xu Mingchen, "Shut up, this is none of your business."
Everyone was surprised by these words.
"You..." Xu Mingchen didn't expect Qiao Ying to rebut him like this. Coming to his senses, he felt he couldn't keep face if he didn't respond, but was at a temporary loss for words.
Qiao Yi looked at the overbearing Qiao Ying with astonishment written all over his face.
"Apologize!" Qiao Ying was already out of patience. If this was outside, she would've hit him already.
She exerted some strength in her hand, and the tightened collar choked the boy, turning his face red.
A crowd gathered in the corridor to watch. The boy wished a hole would open up in the ground for him to crawl into, but he wanted to beat up the fatso in front of him even more.
However, he couldn't break free at all. Seeing more and more people, the boy gritted his teeth fiercely, "S-Sorry."
Qiao Ying leaned in, and said in a volume only the two of them could hear, "If I hear the word 'cripple' again, I'll make you experience what it's like to be one."
She then flung the boy, skinny as a pole, away like shaking off mud, "Scram!"
The boy's eyes were practically spitting fire as he glared fiercely at Qiao Ying, but didn't dare to do anything.
The bell rang at this moment. Xu Mingchen told him to go back to class, and he took the opportunity to turn and leave.
"Why are you standing there dazed, didn't you hear the bell?" Qiao Ying turned and saw Qiao Yi standing blankly in place. She found it funny.
Qiao Ying had changed too much for Qiao Yi to digest, but he was still able to accurately ask the key point, "You, you don't like Xu Mingchen anymore?"
The whole school knew that his sister Qiao Ying had a secret crush on Xu Mingchen and was publicly humiliated for writing him a love letter. Qiao Yi had even felt embarrassed for her back then.
Qiao Ying awkwardly said, "I never even looked at him in the first place." f𝗿𝚎eweb𝗻o𝐯𝐞l.𝚌om
Xu Mingchen, who was about to return to class, happened to overhear this.
