Yuan Jiaojiao covered her red face. She was so angry that she lunged forward to hit Tang Beibei back.
Lu Fan quickly pushed her away and protected Tang Beibei behind him.
âYuan Jiaojiao, stop this nonsense now!â
Yuan Jiaojiao was about to go crazy from anger. âLu Fan, she hit me and youâre still protecting her. Are you so bewitched by her that you lost your mind?â
Tang Beibei was stunned herself when she slapped Yuan Jiaojiao.
She let anger go to her head and acted impulsively. She regretted her action after she slapped Yuan Jiaojiao.
Although Yuan Jiaojiao had gone too far, the person who hit first was always at fault, even if she had been wronged.
It might feel good to slap someone, but it had undesirable consequences. Sigh.
She walked out from behind Lu Fan and took responsibility for her own actions.
âThis has nothing to do with Lu Fan. Yuan Jiaojiao, Iâm telling you, if you canât produce any evidence to prove what you said, Iâm going to escalate this even more!â
Yuan Jiaojiao sneered, âEvidence? Do you want me to show you nude pictures of you in bed with men?â
Lu Fan scolded her. âThat means you donât have any evidence. Youâre slandering Tang Beibei. Yuan Jiaojiao, apologize now!â
When Yuan Jiaojiao heard the person she liked forcing her to apologize to a woman she despised, she felt as if she had been stabbed in the heart and the knife was being twisted. She felt even more indignant.
âIt was Tang Beibei who hit me. Why should I apologize? She should be the one apologizing!â
Boing, boing, boing.
At this moment, the sound of a bouncing basketball approached them.
Before the crowd could recover from their shock, the basketball bounced off the ground and hit Yuan Jiaojiao.
The basketball hit her hard and Yuan Jiaojiao could not help but cry out in pain. She clutched her arm where she had been hit and glared angrily at the man who threw the ball.
She didnât expect to see the basketball prince of the medicine faculty, Song Kai.
The jersey-clad Song Kai walked over to get his basketball. He said to Yuan Jiaojiao nonchalantly, âWhy did you just stand there? You donât even dodge when you see throwing the ball.â
Yuan Jiaojiao was so angry that her face was all twisted.
The way he threw the ball at her, she wouldnât have been able to dodge it.
Tang Beibei was also surprised to see Song Kai, but she couldnât help but want to laugh when she heard what he said.
It was indeed senior Song Kaiâs style, angering people to death.
âWhy arenât you saying anything? Did the basketball hurt you? Sigh, I donât know whatâs wrong with this basketball. It just wants to teach people it hates a lesson.â Song Kai added.
âSenior Song Kai, what are you talking about? How can a basketball have feelings?â Yuan Jiaojiao said through gritted teeth.
Yuan Jiaojiao didnât expect that Song Kai would also protect Tang Beibei. Tang Beibei indeed had her ways. Not only did she make Lu Fan speak up for her, but she also made Song Kai fight for her.
She couldnât accept it.
Song Kai walked up to Tang Beibei and put his arm around her shoulders. His tone was lazy and a little contemptuous as he said, âTang Beibei started wearing nice clothes and you said that she slept with men for money. If you buy new clothes, can we also assume that you are selling your body?â
Yuan Jiaojiao was embarrassed and angry. âNo! I buy new clothes because Iâm rich!â
Song Kai mocked openly, âYour money belongs to your parents. So, you canât let others be rich? Is your money clean while othersâ money is dirty?â
âI⦠No.â
Yuan Jiaojiao was furious. She couldnât come up with a retort, yet Song Kai continued, âYou accused Tang Beibei of doing despicable things for money. Here comes an IQ.question. Between Lu Fan and me, who has more money?â
Yuan Jiaojiao was stunned. The Songs and the Lus were the wealthiest families in town. They were definitely rich. Both families were rich and powerful in their own way.
âSeniors Song Kai and Lu Fan are both rich.â
Song Kai raised his eyebrows and asked, âThen, between Lu Fan and me, who is more handsome? Who is more popular with women?â
Yuan Jiaojiao couldnât understand what Song Kai was getting at. She looked at the refined and noble Lu Fan, then at the tall and strong Song Kai. Both of them had excellent looks so they were probably both popular with women.
âYouâre both very handsome.â
She was a little embarrassed when she said that.
Song Kai chuckled. âIf Lu Fan and I are both rich and good-looking. Why didnât Tang Beibei, whoâs greedy for money, seduce us? Why is she just our junior in school?â
âAre we so much worse than the rich second generation kids out there, or so unsightly that she forgo people within her grasp and seduced men outside?â
The surrounding girls who were watching their drama unfold started to discuss in low voices when they heard Song Kaiâs words.
âOh my God. Song Kai is so handsome. Is he hinting to Tang Beibei to flirt with him?â
âWhy is senior Song Kai helping Tang Beibei? Is there something going on between them? Why docs senior Song Kai have his arm around her shoulders? I wished I could lend my shoulders to him.â
âBut what Song Kai said makes sense. If Tang Beibei is so greedy for money, why didnât she get together with Lu Fan or Song Kai?â
Yuan Jiaojiao stared at Song Kaiâs arm that was on around Tang Beibeiâs shoulders. Wasnât that seduction?
âShe ate with Lu Fan because she wanted to seduce him!â
Song Kai laughed heartily as if he heard a funny joke. âEating with Lu Fan is seduction. Iâve also eaten with junior Lu Fan before. Was I seducing him too?â
Yuan Jiaojiao could not say anything to refute him, so she gritted her teeth to suppress her anger. She clenched her teeth so hard that her jaw muscles were twitching.
Meanwhile, Song Kai added, âBesides, junior Lu Fan and junior Tang Beibei werenât seducing each other. They were on a date.â
âDate, on a date?â
Tang Beibei was surprised and looked at Song Kai in shock. Was he certain that he didnât say anything wrong?
Why would she be on a date with Lu Fan?
âSenior Song Kai, youâ¦â
âJunior Beibei, in order to prove your innocence to everyone, play along.â Song Kai nudged her softly.
âBut, Iâ¦â
Song Kai added softly, âI know thereâs nothing going on between you two. Iâm only saying this to teach Yuan Jiaojiao a lesson. Follow my lead and donât say anything.â
Tang Beibei sighed helplessly and moved his arm away. Song Kai didnât make things difficult for her this time. After retracting his arm, he glanced at Lu Fan.
Lu Fan was also very surprised when he heard Song Kaiâs words.
He was on a date with Tang Beibei?
But when Lu Fan saw Song Kai wink at Tang Beibei, he pushed up his glasses and said, âYes, we were on a date.â
When the other girls heard that Lu Fan was dating another woman at school, they imploded.
âNo, no, no. Lu Fan is mine. Tang Beibei, you b*tch!â
Yuan Jiaojiao was also stunned.
How could that be? Tang Beibei and Lu Fan in a relationship?
No, she must have heard wrong.
How could Lu Fan like Tang Beibei, that dirty and stinky thing?
âNo, I donât believe it!â
Song Kai sneered, âWhether you believe it or not has nothing to do with her. Tang Beibei is Lu Fanâs girlfriend. She canât hook up with other men. Yuan Jiaojiao, you must apologize for what you said about her earlier!â
When Yuan Jiaojiao heard Song Kai emphasize that Tang Beibei was Lu Fanâs girlfriend, she felt that her world was about to collapse..
