Chapter 29
Lord Moe to the Rescue
Upon hearing her question, Ruan Mengmeng narrowed her eyes. She was only there to show up. She would have never thought that this would be the first question asked by her teacher.
She could not help but take a glance, scanning her from head to toe.
Her language teacher, Li Xiuli, did not seem young and would at most be in her forties. Besides, she also seemed like a serious and professional person.
She did not look like the kind of person who would deliberately pick a fight with someone.
“Teacher Li, how does this have anything to do with my enrolment?” Without giving her a straight answer, Ruan Mengmeng chose to take a more evasive approach.
Li Xiuli’s initial serious expression darkened further.
She paused briefly and asked her another question, “What about Ruan Shishi then? Do you know who she is?”
Upon hearing her sister’s name being mentioned, Ruan Mengmeng was short of breath.
Her sister had previously studied at Wisdom Private Academy and was widely regarded as a legend amongst the students.
At the age of 13, Ruan Shishi had skipped multiple grades and went directly to Year 3 whilst studying at Wisdom Private Academy. Within a single year there, she had been granted admission into a famous overseas university and got her MBA in just three years.
Although she had only studied at Wisdom Private Academy for a year, Ruan Mengmeng heard from Mu Jingxing that a large number of her sister’s juniors were also huge fans of hers. This was regardless of the fact that the academy was already swarming with geniuses.
“She’s my sister.” Ruan Mengmeng did not hesitate to admit their relationship.
Ruan Shishi was her sister, the person she cared about most in her life, unlike Ruan Jiaojiao, who she did not want to get even the least bit involved with.
“If that’s the case, Ruan Jiaojiao who’s studying in Cla.s.s One is your younger sister, right?”
Ruan Mengmeng frowned at Li Xiuli’s question.
This was why she did not want to study at Wisdom Private Academy. The thought that everything she did here would be linked with that illegitimate girl disgusted her.
Seeing that Ruan Mengmeng remained silent, Li Xiuli took it as a yes.
“Well then, I have no further questions. Go to your cla.s.s and find an empty seat. I’m busy with other work.”
Without introducing her to the academy nor her cla.s.smates, she was dismissed. Li Xiuli did not even offer to take her to cla.s.s.
Ruan Mengmeng was not sure if what she thought was true or whether it was just a misunderstanding.
She felt that Teacher Li’s eyes expressed a hint of coldness along with flashes of hatred when she answered her question.
‘Could it be that she was previously offended by my sister or something?’
“What a weird school. That was my first time meeting her, but she made it looked like we were enemies in our past life,” Ruan Mengmeng muttered to herself while walking toward Cla.s.s 13th.
Just when she turned into a corridor, she saw a student being cornered near the stairs by five or six people. The student was wearing Wisdom Academy’s school uniform.
‘School-bullying happens here too?’
Without wanting to cause any trouble, Ruan Mengmeng was about to take a detour, but she suddenly heard a familiar name.
“Mu Jingxing, shut the f*ck up and give me my money! Don’t lie to me that you don’t have any money! Give me my money now, or you’ll be sorry when you meet my fist in a couple more seconds!”
“Screw you…” Lying on the floor, Mu Jingxing refused to admit defeat and said unyieldingly, “I won’t give any of my money to sc.u.mbags like you. Beat me to death if you can, otherwise, just you wait for my revenge!”
“Huh, how can someone like you take revenge on us?!” A fat student, who appeared to be the leader of the group said in disdain.
“I would have believed you back then, but now, Senior Gu Xuan has taken away all your men. Just look at you now, where are all the so-called brothers of yours? Hmph, don’t do anything stupid and just make sure you pay your protection fees every month. By doing that, you might still be able to survive in Wisdom Academy, otherwise…”
The fat bully balled up his fists, ready to punch Mu Jingxing’s handsome face.
It seems like what that guy said was true. This little rascal would not get away with being uncooperative without first suffering some pain.’
Just when his fist was about to smash into Mu Jingxing’s face, a fair and slender hand reached out suddenly and parried the blow.
The bully’s fat fist was gripped tightly.
“Otherwise? What are you going to do?” Ruan Mengmeng asked the fatty with a cold expression on her beautiful face.
Her seemingly fragile hand parried the blow with ease.
