Chapter 493: She Would Never Stop
Compared to the cold of Muyang Town, Jingdu was much warmer, and it had heating everywhere.
The dry warmth made her feel very comfortable.
Now that she had embarked on the road to revenge, there was no chance that she was ever going to look back.
Even if she was d.a.m.ned to perdition, she would never stop.
She’d closed her eyes to soak up the sun. Now, before she’d opened her eyes, she caught a whiff of Mu Feichi’s faint scent of mint.
She slowly raised her head. Blinking, she snapped back to reality.
“Young Marshal Mu, what are you doing?” His cold, handsome face was looking at her, reflected in her clear dazzling eyes.
Mu Feichi sighed. In reality, he couldn’t explain what he was doing. It was just that when he’d watched her countenance as she was daydreaming, he’d suddenly felt a little anguished.
His little wildcat should be living happily and innocently, instead of doing things she didn’t want to do like during the last few days.
“The sky won’t fall, since there’s always me.”
His deep eyes were filled with gentleness, and he raised his hand and caressed her head.
“Are you frightened by my vicious methods?”
Mu Feichi chuckled. “Those little tricks of yours aren’t vicious. If it were me, I wouldn’t be as mercifully softhearted as you are.”
She understood what he meant. She smiled and said nothing.
“Okay, let’s go. I’ll take you back to cla.s.s. Naturally, someone will take care of things here, so you don’t need to worry about it any further.”
Yun Xi nodded and followed him to the car.
…
News of Li Sinuo’s expulsion quickly spread throughout the senior grade. No one was able to find any real information, and they only knew that she had gotten expelled from school because she’d made a serious mistake.
After repeating the year and getting expelled at the most critical time, she definitely wouldn’t be able to take the college entrance exam, so her future was probably ruined as well.
Teachers of the various subjects didn’t know the inside story so they all felt sorry for Li Sinuo, but Mr. Xu, who knew the inside story as her homeroom teacher, said nothing.
This was the result the school had wanted. Even without Li Sinuo, he still had Yun Xi. As long as Yun Xi could become the top scorer on the college entrance exam, he, her homeroom teacher, would also get a share of the glory.
As soon as Li Sinuo’s scandal was exposed, Zhou Chengzhe approached Yun Xi and inexplicably accused Yun Xi of manipulatively meddling in the matter somehow.
Yun Xi didn’t deny or admit it. She chuckled lightly and asked Zhou Chengzhe to show her some evidence. If he couldn’t show her any evidence, she could accuse him of slandering her.
After Zhou Chengzhe had lost the biology compet.i.tion, his image as the teacher’s pet wasn’t as good as it had been before. He didn’t dare to incur trouble for himself because of an insignificant person like Li Sinuo, so he left it alone.
Yun Xi was in a good mood. She sent a message to Zhao Yumo to come to school for cla.s.s. After she had pretended to be sick for so long in order to fool their enemy, she really would fall behind in her studies if she didn’t start coming back to school right away.
As soon as school ended that day, Han Yaotian called Yun Xi and apologized to her for what had happened.
Yun Xi knew that he wanted news about Lin Sen, but she didn’t have the energy to talk to him, so she hung up the phone after a short conversation.
She took the bus home and was three stops away from where she got off the bus when she looked up to see that a cup of hot chocolate was being handed to her.
She raised her head and glanced at the man sitting next to her. She froze a little, then smiled at him. She took the hot chocolate he’d handed over and said, “Thank you”.
Feng Yang tilted his head and glanced at her. “After what happened last night, are you okay?”
“Huh? What are you talking about?” Yun Xi didn’t understand what he meant and looked at him in confusion.
“Didn’t Young Marshal Mu catch Lin Sen last night? You were right on the front lines of the operation. He really wasn’t protecting you very well.”
Yun Xi smiled and said lightly, “You’re really very well-informed. Can’t you see I’m okay?”
“I’m very glad that you’re okay, but don’t be so reckless next time.”
After a pause, Feng Yang took out a few pieces of tissue from his pocket and handed them to her. “Your mom is coming back today. The Su family is going to lower the pressure on your dad, but you be careful.”
