Who Knew the School Beauty Had a Scheming Side!

Su Yunian saw Zhao Feifei sitting beside her desk, looking guarded and reluctant to come out.

She quickly said, "Feifei, come out for a moment. I need to talk to you."

Zhao Feifei was a little impatient.

Still, out of curiosity, she walked out of the classroom.

Su Yunian tightly gripped the red box in her hand, hiding it inside the wide sleeve of her school uniform.

Inside was the pearl bracelet Su Jingang had given her at noon.

It looked like it probably wasn't cheap.

But she couldn't care less about it.

Su Yunian planned to give the bracelet to Zhao Feifei, pretending to patch things up with her while finding a way to get hair from Zhao Feifei and her younger brother, Zhao Jinxuan, for a paternity test.

Since her mother, Xie Qing, had fired Zhao Min, she had no idea where Zhao Min was living now. Zhao Jinxuan hadn't been coming to school lately either, so finding them wasn't easy.

Who would have thought that the very moment Zhao Feifei walked out of the classroom-

Zhao Feifei casually brushed back the stray hairs at her temple.

A pearl bracelet identical to Su Yunian's was revealed on her wrist.

Yes, identical!

Both the design and the color were exactly the same.

Su Yunian: "..."!!!

Inside, Su Yunian was jumping with rage, so furious she wanted to curse.

That damned scumbag father, Su Jingang!

Just how many identical bracelets had he bought? Had he gone shopping at a wholesaler?

"Su Yunian, what do you want?" Zhao Feifei's voice carried displeasure and impatience.

"Feifei!"

Su Yunian silently tightened her grip on the red box inside her sleeve.

She had originally meant to give it to Zhao Feifei, but now it seemed she wouldn't be able to.

Raging waves churned inside her, but she still tried her best to remain calm on the surface and make her expression look friendlier.

"I came to see you today mainly to apologize. What happened with your mother last time was a misunderstanding."

"A misunderstanding?"

Zhao Feifei sneered unhappily, "Ha! Young Lady Su, didn't your mother, Xie Qing, fire my mother from her job? And now you've come to tell me it was a misunderstanding?"

"What, do you rich people just love making a joke out of us poor people?"

Su Yunian shook her head.

"Feifei, I'm really sorry. It was our fault for misunderstanding Auntie Zhao. Please tell Auntie Zhao that I'd like a chance to see her and personally bring my mother along to apologize to her."

As she said this, Su Yunian felt especially miserable. Someone else had clearly been trying to frame her mother.

But everything she was doing now was only to obtain evidence. She would swallow the humiliation to achieve her goal and deal with the rest once she had the evidence.

"Ha!" Zhao Feifei sneered. "You hurt someone, then think you can cover everything up with one apology? In your dreams!"

"Su Yunian, let me tell you, if apologies worked, what would we need the law for?"

Zhao Feifei suddenly leaned close to Su Yunian's ear and spoke in a voice only the two of them could hear:

"If apologies worked, I'd definitely kill you and your mother, then apologize ten thousand times in front of your graves. Hahahahaha!"

Riiing~

Just then, the class bell rang.

Students rushed into their classrooms one after another.

The teachers also came out of their offices.

Zhao Feifei suddenly took a step backward.

She let out a loud scream and fell backward.

"Ah!"

"Su Yunian, I've never done anything to you. If you came to talk to me, then just talk. Why did you push me out of nowhere?"

Su Yunian: "..."???

Zhao Feifei continued her tearful accusations. "Su Yunian, I've always treated you as a good friend, even like an older sister. But you? What do you take me for? Why did you push me for no reason?"

The classrooms for senior year Classes 3 and 4 stood between Classes 2 and 5.

They were all on the same floor.

Anyone could see what was happening outside the other classrooms' windows just by sticking their head out.

Lu Chi was sleeping sprawled over his desk when, in his groggy haze, he suddenly heard the system, Guagua, screaming.

[Host, this is bad! This is bad! Su Yunian went to Class 5 to see Zhao Feifei, and Zhao Feifei pulled a dirty trick on her.]

Seeing that Lu Chi still hadn't woken up-

The system, Guagua, grew anxious.

It hurriedly used a vibrating shock wave to shake Lu Chi awake.

[Host! Host! Wake up! Zhao Feifei played a dirty trick on School Beauty Su!]

Lu Chi finally woke up.

Upon waking, he fired off three questions:

Who am I?

Where am I?

What am I supposed to do?

Guagua: [Host, stop messing with me! Hurry, Zhao Feifei framed our great school beauty, Su! Let's go help her!]

Lu Chi sat upright and shoved the window beside him forward.

He stuck his head out.

Sure enough, he saw a crowd gathered outside Class 5.

They had packed the area so tightly that not even water could get through, making a noisy racket.

He couldn't see what was happening inside the circle.

"Su Yunian's that stupid? She let a little green tea bitch pull one over on her?"

Lu Chi hurriedly rose from his seat, walked out of the classroom, and went straight to the entrance of Class 5.

Summoning all his primordial strength, he pushed the crowd apart.

At last, he could see what was happening.

Lu Chi: "..."

The school beauty, Su Yunian, was lying on top of Zhao Feifei.

Bracing herself hard with her hands, she took several tries before managing to get up.

She had pressed down so hard that Zhao Feifei's stomach hurt.

Su Yunian held her ankle and rubbed it over and over.

As she did, she apologized to Zhao Feifei. "Feifei, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to push you just now. I suddenly twisted my ankle, and the momentum tipped me forward, so I accidentally pushed you."

Lu Chi: [Holy crap! The school beauty usually looks so cold and aloof. Who knew she had such a scheming side? This young pupil really can be taught!]

"I fell to the ground myself, too. Ah, I must have sprained my ankle pretty badly. Why does it hurt so much? Hiss..."

"Feifei, I'm sorry. I didn't do it on purpose. I hope you can forgive me."

Zhao Feifei had originally intended to frame Su Yunian and ruin her image in their classmates' minds.

Unexpectedly, Su Yunian had climbed right up the pole she'd offered, admitting that she had pushed Zhao Feifei, but not on purpose. She had only knocked her over accidentally because she'd twisted her ankle.

Under the circumstances, their classmates had little to say.

One after another, they helped Su Yunian up.

Class 5's math teacher reached the doorway and saw the scene, but merely said, "Classmates should get along and be understanding of one another. All right, everyone, break it up. Go inside for class!"

Only Su Yunian, Lu Chi, and a few students from other classes remained at the doorway.

"Here, I'll help you."

Lu Chi reached out to support Su Yunian.

Afraid she would misunderstand, he added, "Don't get the wrong idea. I'm only helping because we're classmates and deskmates, and I can see you're having trouble walking. Otherwise, I wouldn't bother with you."

It wasn't that he wanted to be a simp, nor did he possess some noble quality of a hero rescuing a beauty.

Rather, he lived by one saying: the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

He was helping Su Yunian so he could better deal with Lu Jiyang and Zhao Feifei.

In the original plot, although Zhao Feifei wasn't a major lead, she still had quite a few scenes.

Every time Lu Jiyang framed the body's original owner, she was invariably there, fanning the flames.

Since he was living in the original owner's place, Zhao Feifei needn't expect to live well either.

Su Yunian glanced at Lu Chi in surprise and shock.

The next second, Su Yunian obediently reached out and placed her hand in Lu Chi's palm.

With Lu Chi supporting her, she limped toward Class 2's classroom.

A warm touch spread through his palm.

Her little hand, smooth and tender as a slender scallion, shifted about in Lu Chi's palm.

Guagua: [Host, you're the first boy in the entire school to hold the school beauty's hand. How does it feel?]

Lu Chi carefully savored the sensation. [Tsk, tsk, tsk... amazing! So the school beauty's hand actually feels this good to touch.]

Su Yunian: "..."

As she listened to Lu Chi's conversation with the system-

Her face instantly turned red.

She hurriedly pulled her hand out of Lu Chi's palm.

Then she strode forward.

In Su Yunian's hand was a small tuft of hair she had just yanked from Zhao Feifei's head amid the confusion.
