After that incident, Wu Yan was sent to Australia to study as his dad wanted him to get out of this environment and start anew. 

He did as his dad has said and went abroad. There he studied determinedly and also worked out to lost his weight. 

He consulted a doctor to lose weight healthily as he doesn"t want to force his body like Xie Ming said to him. 

He stopped eating any junk food and worked out every day. 

After a year, he came back to the S country. His mother was shocked to see him like this.

Her son who was bullied at school one year ago because of being fat was now looking like a young handsome man. 

His height was now showing as he has lost his weight with his muscles showing and pointed jaw enhanced his features. 

The very next day he went to Xie Ming"s school to see her. 

He remembered the school name from her uniform, he went to her school. 

He has no other way to contact her as he doesn"t have her number. So he could just go there and ask about her. 

He wanted her to look at him and also he wanted to confess his feelings for her. 

He thought that now he has enough courage to express his feelings to her as he was not the same Wu Yan that he was a year ago. 

He became the better version of himself. 

He stood at the entrance of the school, as the school just ended, students were coming out while carrying their school bags. 

Many people stopped and turned to look at him especially girls. 

He ignored all of them and stood at the spot waiting for Xie Ming to come, but she didn"t come. 

This year Xie Ming must be in the second year of high school. 

He stopped a pair of girls who were glancing at him as they were the last student to come out of the school. 

The girls shyly looked at him and a girl whose hair was straight and a pet.i.te face came forward and said in a low voice, " Did you want to ask something?" 

Wu Yan who was wearing a pair of black s.h.i.+rts and trousers looked at the girl whose face was blushed as she talked to him. 

He felt awkward as he asked, " Does everyone left the school?"

He stood there for more than two hours but he didn"t saw Xie Ming coming. 

He thought that she didn"t come to school today. But he wanted to meet her and was trying to know if someone knows her. 

Xinyi whose head was hung down with her blushed cheeks looked up at Wu Yan and said, " Yes. The school has ended. We are the last one to come out of the school." she said in a low voice. 

Qin Jia who was standing beside her was burning in jealousy. 

In front of Xinyi, she was always her lackey. Her beauty is always suppressed by Xinyi. 

She knows that in front of everyone, Xinyi always pretends to be gentle and innocent. 

But she has seen her true face and it was really scary. 

When a high school girl could provoke a guy to the extent that he crazily went to force on a girl who was her stepsister. 

And not only that she could see everything with her own eyes and not help her, then she was the scariest person in the world. 

That"s why she couldn"t dare to oppose her, otherwise, she doesn"t know what she will do to her. 

Xinyi looked at Wu Yan and asked, " Are you finding someone?" she asked him in a gentle tone with her innocent smile as if she truly wanted to help him. 

Wu Yan looked at Xinyi with his troubled expression and asked, " Erm.. Do you know Xie Ming. She must be in the second cla.s.s of the high school. She has a pet.i.te face with her dark brown eyes, dimples appear on her face as she smiles." he tried to explain her Xie Ming"s looks. 

But then he went off the topic and was praising her as he remembered her beautiful face when he saw her the last time. 

When Xinyi heard, Xie Ming"s name, her face darkened as he clutched her hands in a fist. 

Qin Jia also furrowed her brows hearing Xie Ming"s name. 

Xinyi looked at Wu Yan with a cold expression and said, " She doesn"t study here anymore."

Wu Yan panicked when he heard her words, " What? What are you saying? Are you talking about some other Xie Ming? There must be many Xie Ming in the school. I am talking about Xie Ming who was very beautiful and strong. She is... "

Xinyi was tired of hearing Xie Ming"s name back to back and snapped at him," She has been expelled from the school. That"s why she has left the school a year ago. "

" So don"t waste your time on her and go your way," she spoke with a distant expression on her face. 

Wu Han froze on the spot. 

" What did she mean by expelled? Why?" 

His face has become ashen as he stared at Xinyi and held her arm and said," Why? Why did she get expelled? What happened to her? " he asked her a series of questions. 

Xinyi rubbed her temples with the other hand and said, " She has tried to throw herself on a guy and also injured him severally. Because of its, the school"s reputation has been affected so she was been expelled. That"s all I know." 

Xinyi deliberately told him about that incident because she could see the love in his eyes for Xie Ming. 

She doesn"t want him to admire Xie Ming anymore. 

" She is truly a s.l.u.t. Don"t know how many boys she has seduced with her s.l.u.tty body. What"s so great if she had good looks? What matters is a person" s heart." she thought herself. 

She always believed that Xie Ming was a s.l.u.t who was purposely seducing the other guys and that"s the reason they roam around her. 

Wu Yan" s gaze darkened as he heard her words. 

" What did you just say? Do you have any idea what rubbish you"re saying?" he shook Xinyi"s arm as he yelled at her. 

" How could Xie Ming could do anything like this?"

 Though he has only met her once but it was enough to know her. He knows that she can"t do anything like this. 

Something must be wrong.
