The classroom that was filled with chatter suddenly quietened.
A group of people gathered at the back door.
Su Nian removed her earphones with one hand and glanced at them.
She looked them in the eye.
Everyone made way instantly.
Su Nian got past the crowd and headed straight for the restroom at the end of the corridor.
Gu Xichi's call came in once again.
She found a cubicle, sat on the toilet cover and picked up the call.
[The Middle East]
After lighting a cigarette for himself, he smiled. "You haven't replied to my text message this morning, and now you're hanging up on me."
"I'm in college." Su Nian was fiddling with the earphones. "Cut to the chase, my class is starting soon."
"There's something." Gu Xichi puffed a ball of smoke, received a first aid kit from someone and thanked him before going on. "I've looked into the documents you gave me."
"What did you find?"
Gu Xichi paused for a while before saying, almost in a slur, " I got the Interpol to investigate it. But why did I see your name in the Interpol list? Did my eyes play tricks on me?"
Su Nian was silent for a few seconds before she changed her sitting posture. "Impossible."
Gu Xichi hid the medicine box and bit his cigarette. He seemed to chuckle a little, his voice gentle and sweet. "You're pretty confident."
The bathroom door banged and someone came in.
Su Nian gave a faint "yeah", then lowered her voice. "What the hell did you see?"
But Gu Xichi would not lie to her.
"Your name was on the list. They're investigating you." Gu Xichi smiled at the little boy who handed him a candy. Then, he squinted his eyes and walked in the other direction. "Did you leak your own information accidentally when you helped me check for stuff last time?"
"That's even more impossible. No one can find it." Su Nian stood up, her eyebrows raised slightly, and she casually tucked her fringe behind her ear. "I'm hanging up if you have nothing else to say."
Several girls were whispering outside.
Su Nian opened the door of the compartment and went out.
The girls were not here for the toilet and they just stood beside the sink.Su Nian saw Su Ran in the middle immediately.
Su Ran pursed her lips and acted as if she didn't know Su Nian . She stood among the girls without even raising her head.
The whispering voice disappeared instantly because someone suddenly came out of the compartment.
The whole building was suddenly quiet.
Su Nian pushed her phone back into her pocket and walked two steps forward. The hair on the side of her head slipped. "I want to wash my hands, thank you."
The group of girls backed away.
They couldn't help but look at her.
When Su Nian washed her hands and left, the girls reacted.
Su Ran pursed her lips.
The girls looked at each other. Su Nian's face was too recognizable and a baby-faced girl recognized her quickly. "She is Su Nian? She looks..."
Another girl saw Su Ran's expression and immediately poked her waist.
The baby faced girl almost bit her tongue and immediately changed her tune. "She looks average. The boys are acting like they haven't seen a girl before. Su Ran, don't care about what they're saying on the forum. She fights and skips classes, and even messes around with the other students. She's obviously not a decent girl."
===========
The first lesson in the afternoon was Gao Yang's math class.
Before class, Qiao Sheng took out his mobile phone and found the post on the forum. He kicked the chair in front of him and handed his mobile phone to Xu Yaoguang. "Young Master Xu, the campus belle is changed. It's Su Ran's sister, look at it?"
Xu Yaoguang was doing a math problem and he didn't even glance at him. "It's time for the lesson to start."
"Damn you!" Qiao Sheng took back his phone and saved the photo by himself.
The teenager sitting beside him laughed. "Young Master Xu only has Su Ran in his heart. Qiao Sheng, you can forget about it."
Qiao Sheng held a pen in one hand and his cell phone in his other hand. He looked at a campus forum of First Middle School and, after a while, he suddenly said, "Did she really fight with the group of college students?"
"How did you know?" Several boys around him were very concerned about Su Nian's affairs, and they immediately turned over.
Qiao Sheng pointed at a post above and frowned. "She has provoked Wei Zihang's group. After class, they want to go find her."
At the mention of Wei Zihang, everyone in the back row all snorted.
They glanced at Xu Yaoguang and were afraid to speak.
Previously, only Lin Jinxuan could match up with Wei Zihang, but he had already graduated two years ago.
There was only Xu Yaoguang now.
However, Young Master Xu was cold and spoke little even to Su Ran. It seemed like he had a bad impression of the new campus belle and probably wouldn't help her out. Thus, she would only have a hard time in school from now on.
Su Nian supported her chin and sat down with her back leaning against the wall. She closed her eyes and lowered her head halfway so that her fringe fell over and crossed her brow bone.
At the end of the afternoon class, Lin Siran handed over her notes to Su Nian and whispered, "Do you want to look at it?"
Su Nian sat up and took it slowly.
She kept the paper and smiled lightly at her desk mate. "Thanks. Do you know where I can buy books?"
"No problem." Lin Siran blushed. Sure enough, even though her new desk mate looked fierce, she was still easy-going. "I'll take you there."
Su Nian wanted to buy extra-curricular books, so Lin Siran took her out of school.
She tutored her about the school on the way.
The two talked as they walked outside the school.
Not far away.
"Su Ran, I heard your brother is back." Qiao Sheng held a cigarette and lit it while smiling.
He used to call her Campus Belle Su. Su Ran's expression remained the same. "Yeah."
Xu Yaoguang stood by her side, and although he wasn't warm nor cold, his attitude was much gentler.
Qiao Sheng laughed. "I want to have half of your brother. So my dad won't deduct my pocket money."
He took a puff, and before he even looked up, he heard the roar of a locomotive in his ear.
It was very loud. Qiao Sheng rubbed his ears and stepped aside while cursing.
The locomotive stopped not far ahead, and it was clear that they were surrounding two girls.
At the front was a fiery red locomotive.
Obstructed by the locomotive, one of the girls' thin, arrogant figure looked extremely familiar.
Su Ran took a step back and lowered her eyes. "Wei Zihang is in front. Shall we go a different way?"
Xu Yaoguang frowned. There were two girls in front of him, facing away from him. He couldn't see their faces, but one of their thin backs looked pretty arrogant.
Before he spoke, Qiao Sheng said, "Su Ran, go back first. If there's a fight here, it won't be good if you get injured."
Qiao Sheng had specifically detoured here.
Su Ran glanced at Xu Yaoguang. He wasn't bothered by the chaos in front of him, and his eyebrows were relaxed and calm as usual, so she was relieved. "My driver is over there, I'll go back first." She paused and said, "Go back soon too."
Su Ran got into the car, but the driver didn't drive immediately. He said hesitantly, "Miss, in front, that's..."
"It's okay. I'm hungry, let's go back soon." Su Ran tilted her head and smiled.
The driver immediately started the engine and drove away.
Over there, Lin Siran's face turned pale as she looked at the locomotive surrounding them. She clutched Su Nian's hand.
"That's..." She looked at the teenager sitting on the red locomotive with his eyes narrowed as if he were looking at his prey. Her voice was tight and her palms were sweaty. "It's the campus bully."
Lin Siran fidgeted nervously when suddenly, a low hoarse voice laughed behind her.
