âWhatâs going on?â Jiaojiao heard loud arguing voices from the side.
Seeing that more and more people were coming out from both upstairs and downstairs, and there were some people taking photos, Yan Su felt a headache. âCome up, I have a problem.â
From the looks of it, An Ning was planning to besmirch her character. As a public figure, Yan Su was not in a position to start arguing with her. Although she was popular, there were a good number of people from school who were jealous of her.
In addition, she would be too embarrassed to discuss her relationship in a public setting. She was not in a good position to defend herself, and An Ning was completely shameless.
Yan Su stayed on her phone. An Ning had already been helped up by somebody.
âI think you should be sent for a check-up at the infirmary.â No matter if she had fallen on purpose or by accident, Yan Su still tried to be diplomatic.
Who knew that An Ning would look at her with red-rimmed eyes and continue to say in a choking voice, âYan, I just want to ask you, why did you push me, was it because of Liuxi?â
The crowd around them got noisy.
âWhat? Yan Su likes Mo Liuxi? My goodness.â
âSpeaking of which, I saw this girl delivering food to Mo Liuxi every day. Did Yan Su do this because she was feeling unhappy about it?â
âYou really canât tell from her looks.â
â...â
Another wave of discussion sounded. Yan Su couldnât take it anymore. âAn Ning, if you try to besmirch my character again, I can hire a lawyer.â
âGo ahead. Anyways, you are a public figure, a hot-shot celebrity, while I am just an ordinary student.â An Ning gave a pitiful smile.
Yan Su had seen her fair share of unique people in her lifetime, but she had never seen someone like An Ning.
She couldnât straighten this out herself, so she decided to call Luosang. âGive me An Lanâs number.â
âWhatâs wrong?â Luosang was surprised. âDid something troublesome happen?â
After all, that lawyer An Lan...
âItâs nothing much, but give me her number,â Yan Su replied vaguely.
Luosang found An Lanâs number and sent it over. Yan Su immediately dialed An Lanâs number. âLawyer An, Iâm Yan Su. Your sister and I have had some conflict in school. Please come over.â
âOh, all right.â An Lan was bemused, but she still agreed.
An Ning watched her make the call. When she was done, An Lan said with a sad smile, âItâs no use. Even if you call my sister over, you still pushed me, so you have to apologize to me. Donât think that I am easy to bully because youâre a hotshot celebrity.â
âSu, whatâs going on?â Right at that moment, Jiaojiao squeezed to the front with a security guard.
Yan Su roughly explained the situation to her in a low voice. Jiaojiaoâs expression was heavy. âGet into the car and go to the airport first. Iâll follow you after settling the business here.â
Yan Su nodded and said to An Ning: âIâm not going to change my statement, I didnât push you. You chased Mo Liuxi with all your might but in the end, you still couldnât get him. Donât push that blame on me. Also, donât view anyone close to Mo Liuxi as a hindrance. My junior, youâre still so young and yet you are already so cunning. You really make people feel that youâre frightening.â
When she finished, Yan Su left without turning back.
Jiaojiao sent An Ning to the infirmary.
Not long after, An Lan came over as well. When An Ning saw her, An Ning immediately launched into her embrace in tears. âSister, youâre a lawyer. You have to uphold justice for me. She really did push me, or else I wouldnât have lost my balance. If you donât believe me, you can look at the surveillance tapes.â
Jiaojiao said coldly, âYan Su said that she had needed to leave urgently, but you were blocking her way. She wanted to push you aside, but you fell down by yourself. She didnât use any strength at all.â
âShe knows the truth in her heart,â An Ning retaliated.
âThatâs enough.â An Lan cut her off with a cold expression. âAn Ning, havenât I told you that you canât force things like feelings? Your usual antics in school, chasing him and causing small annoyances, can be forgiven since you have the right to chase him. But you even went over to his house. If any woman gets close to him, or has a scandal with him, you would go and find the woman. According to the law, your behavior can constitute harassment.â
After being stunned for a moment, An Ning started crying angry tears. âSister, how can you say this about me? Youâre my biological sister, and yet you donât help me but side with the outsider. Is it because she is Xu Luosangâs good friend and youâre afraid of offending Nian Junting?â
An Lan was so angry that she was at a loss for words. If An Ning wasnât her sister, she really didnât want to bother.
âAn Ning, am I that kind of person? Iâm saying this because you are in the wrong!â
âI didnât do anything wrong; she pushed me.â An Ning insisted and said pitifully, âBut Iâm all right if she refuses to apologize. However, I must tell you that she isnât simple. Back then, I had almost got Mo Liuxi to go out with me, but she said bad things about me to Mo Liuxi behind my back. I know all of that.â
Jiaojiao was so incredulous that she laughed. âOur Yan Su is famous for her good temper. An Ning, if this matter blows up, our company will sue you for slander. If nothing gets out, on the account of your sister, we can let this matter go.â
When she was done, she took out a thousand dollars and placed them on the desk. âThis is for the medical fees. After all, your acting was so good, and you made such a desperate attempt, itâs reprehensible if we donât give you this.â
When she finished, Jiaojiao left.
âSister, look at how arrogant they are...â An Ning tagged An Lan.
An Lanâs head hurt. She didnât feel it earlier, but since An Ning fell for Mo Liuxi, she really wanted to throw her own sister into a river to wake her up.
Wasnât it just some relationship problem? She courted him and he didnât like her back. She should just let it be. Why drag it out?
...
Mo Liuxi only found out about this when school was about to end. A schoolmate came to talk to him. âMy goodness Liuxi! You are the talk of the school now. Two women were two fighting over you, and one of them is even the belle of our school.â
The silhouette that originally planned to pack-up and leave paused immediately. He turned around to looks at his schoolmate. âWho are you talking about?â
âYan Su and... An Ning. The girl that used to come and find you here all the time,â the schoolmate said. âI heard that Yan Su pushed her down the stairs.â
âWas she handicapped?â
The schoolmate was stunned for a moment. âThat didnât happen.â
âWhy not?â Mo Liuxi asked coldly.
â... Because... the stairs arenât very high?â said the schoolmate.
Mo Liuxi laughed coolly. âThat might be because she fell down on purpose.â
The schoolmate suddenly didnât know what to say. âIâm not... not too sure. Anyways, the whole school is talking about this now. Everyone says that Yan Su likes you, and then she did this out of jealousy. They say that Yan Su uses her popularity to bully her juniors.â
Mo Liuxiâs handsome face clouded over. He didnât say anything but quickly turned around and walked out. After finding out where An Ning was headed to, he sped walked to the infirmary.
Just then, he bumped into An Lan supporting An Ning.
âLiuxi you came.â A smile immediately appeared on An Ningâs face when she saw him. âDid you hear about the matter between me and Yan....â
