Chapter 36 - League of Poor Students (13)

Jin Yuqi’s face instantly became a little pale. Quickly suppressing her inner turmoil, she said calmly, “Lu Meng, is it suitable to watch a video now?”

Ming Shu ignored Jin Yuqi and fiddled with her cell phone. Sound came from the phone at once. It was a recording of the recent events.

Hearing their own voices, the bystanders gathered to watch.

From the video, they could all see Jin Yuqi clearly, as well as what happened just now.

Jin Yuqi argued with Qian Duoduo and then the two started fighting. But Qian Duoduo only lightly pushed Jin Yuqi, hardly even touching her.

They all fell silent.

Even Senior Jiang looked at Jin Yuqi with a confused and complicated gaze.

Jin Yuqi bit her lips hard and clenched her fists tightly, her palms almost bleeding from the pressure of her fingernails.

“Yuqi?” Senior Jiang addressed her, maybe hoping to hear an explanation from her. “What’s going on?”

“I…” Facing the evidence, Jin Yuqi could say nothing. She couldn’t say she’d sleepwalked right then.

Lu Meng, the bitch, dared to ruin her plan.

Damn it!

“I said that I didn’t push her,” Qian Duoduo said in a low voice, aggrieved, then wiped her eyes and ran away.

Senior Jiang hesitated for a while, looking at Jin Yuqi complicatedly. Then he ran as well, following Qian Duoduo.

“Senior…” Jin Yuqi opened her mouth, but couldn’t say anything. She glanced at the bystanders and their conflicted expressions, becoming angry. “What are you looking at? Hurry up and rehearse!”

“…” The others were silent and thought, What’s the point of shouting at us?

We spoke for her just now!

Alas, she is the fair-skinned, rich, and beautiful lady. Let’s go.

As the bystanders walked away, Jin Yuqi stared at Ming Shu. “Are you satisfied now?”

“I’ll be satisfied when you’re angry.” How can I get Hatred Points if you aren’t angry! I did that just for my work!

“Are you angry?” Ming Shu circled Jin Yuqi with a big smile on her lovely face. “You’re right to be angry. Anger will make you more beautiful.”

“Lu Meng!” Blue veins bulging on the back of Jin Yuqi’s hands and eyes bloodshot, she shouted furiously, “This isn’t over!”

“Yo, bring it on!” Ming Shu still bore her duty to get Hatred Points.

Jin Yuqi stared at Ming Shu and then walked away in her high-heeled shoes. She wouldn’t let her off.

Ming Shu’s smile shrank. Then she returned, sat down, and started eating as if nothing had happened.

Only snacks could release her.

…

Maybe because of Jin Yuqi’s influence, nobody talked about that day, pretending that nothing happened.

The drama was rehearsed in an orderly manner. Ming Shu walked around the playground every day, only seeing Cheng Yan’s followers. Cheng Yan didn’t show up in the playground and wasn’t even seen at school.

Cheng Yan was the problem student whom the school felt most troubled about. He stirred trouble and fought every day. All the bullies around the school knew him.

Whenever he went to school, the students had holidays.

However, he was handsome, so many girls at school liked him. Although he was not as popular as the original male protagonist, Senior Jiang, he was still in the top three.

He was one of the the school’s popular students who became well known because of appearance.

Alas, he shouldn’t want to pursue me since he seldom comes to school. Out!

Ming Shu sat at the back of the playground, eating out of a bag of candy.

“Lu Meng.” Shangguan Feng arrived, extremely angry. He questioned sharply, “Why did you bully Yuqi?”

“You’re blocking my view of the sunset.” Ming Shu tilted her head to see him and found that it was a little inconvenient. She stood, but she was still shorter than him… so she stepped back and stood on the stair she’d been sitting on. At once, she was much taller than Shangguan Feng. Then she said slowly, “Or do you think that you’re more beautiful than the sunset?”

“…” What the hell? ShangguanFeng didn’t want to waste too much time with her. “I’m asking you why you bullied Yuqi. Lu Meng, you can make trouble for me if you’re unhappy. I like Yuqi first and foremost, so why did you make trouble for her? I will look down on you even more if you do that!”

Ming Shu tilted her head. Did Jin Yuqi complain to Shangguan Feng again?

Why is she so confident that Shangguan Feng still has an influence on me?

Am I a superficial person?

“Shangguan Feng, quit performing. Making trouble for her has nothing to do with you.” What should I do with people who put on these self-important acts.

Shangguan Feng didn’t believe that. He sneered and said, “If it had nothing to do with me, why did you make trouble for Yuqi? Lu Meng, don’t start lying now. You weren’t like this before!”

“Well, what was I like before?” Ming Shu raised her eyebrows.

“You…” Shangguan Feng was stuck. Angry, he finally said, “In short, you weren’t like this before. Lu Meng, this is your last chance. If you dare to make trouble for Yuqi again, I won’t let you off. Should this happen, it will not only involve you and I, but also our families.”

Amazing. You’re threatening me.

“I will make trouble for her again and again. If you’re angry, hit me!” How can I complete my task and get Hatred Points if I don’t make trouble for Jin Yuqi?

Shangguan Feng instantly became even madder and even felt the impulse to slap Ming Shu.

Excitement flashing in Ming Shu’s eyes, she lifted her foot and quickly kicked Shangguan Feng.

Shangguan Feng stepped back. Before he could steady himself, he felt a sudden pain on his knee and knelt down. Two boy students stood in front of him, brooms in their hands. “You dare to bully sister-in-law, are you tired of living?”

“Who are you?” Shangguan Feng was baffled. “It’s none of your business!”

“None of our business? You bullied our sister-in-law and call us meddlesome. It’s lucky for you that our Big Brother isn’t here, or else he would thoroughly beat you!” One follower smacked Shangguan on the leg with his broom and said, “Get out!”

Shangguan Feng was extremely angry and shouted, “Do you know who I am?”

“We don’t care who you are. Do you want to die!” The followers beat Shangguan Feng with their brooms.

Shangguan Feng was furious that he was beaten, unable to fight back. He merely stood and fled quickly.

Before leaving, he stared at Ming Shu with resentful eyes the same as Jin Yuqi’s.

Ming Shu waved at him.

[Extension Task: Utterly isolate Shangguan Feng.] The Harmony System announced a task suddenly.

“…” It’s the end for anyone who impedes me from completing my task. The Harmony System is going to deal with you , Ming Shu thought.

Harmony, are you abusing your power for personal revenge?

I hadn’t thought you were this kind of system.

In order to obtain Hatred Points, you really could do anything. Are you sure the plot can develop without any mistakes? Are you kidding me?

[As long as the real protagonist hasn’t been influenced, a small deviation is okay. Guest, don’t worry. You only have to remember that your task is to gather Hatred Points.] The Harmony System continued impressing its ideology on Ming Shu.

Ming Shu lifted her eyebrows and thought, Hey, Harmony, you’re pretty amazing.
