Chapter 1888: They are Bullying Me as Well

As the two ladies fought, Yun Xi had already completed her experiment. She tidied everything up and stopped her friend, who was about to start an actual fight.
She shook her head and smiled. “You don’t have to do this. You are just degrading yourself for getting serious about this matter. Not everyone can be reasoned with.”
After winking at Zhao Yumo, Yun Xi turned to look at Yao Xiaohui, who was utterly furious and pointed at the equipment on the floor. “If any of those is broken, you can report it to the professor. I can still pay for this, but only if you think my money is clean.”
Yao Xiaohui’s face turned pale, and she scoffed, “She’s the one who started this. Do you think money is enough to solve this problem?”
“Are you deaf, or did you not hear me? I said you could tell the professor about this if you wanted to. I won’t stop you. But, you know, you should thank her for making a move first. If it were up to me, things would’ve been much worse for you.”
Yun Xi had planned to form a friendly relationship with her classmates as she might transfer to another major the following semester. To her, there was no need to be on unfriendly terms with her classmates as long they didn’t trouble her. Unfortunately, however, some wanted to watch her suffer.
“So? Don’t act like you are something, you murderer’s daughter. So what if you have the Young Commander supporting you? In the end, you are just another nobody! Do you think I’m afraid of you?”
“Damn, I’m curious as to where your guts come from. Even if she doesn’t have the Young Commander backing her up, she still has me. Am I invisible to you?”
A cold voice could be heard from behind Yao Xiaohui. Everyone immediately shifted their gaze to the entrance of the laboratory and saw Jiang Chenghuan standing by the door with his hands in his pockets. His stare was so cold that they couldn’t help but shiver.
The moment Zhao Yumo saw him, she felt she could fight again.
The students had grins on their faces before that, expecting to see a huge fight between Yun Xi and Yao Xiaohui. However, when they saw Jiang Chenghuan’s playful yet sinister expression, their faces darkened immediately.
Many of the students had not met the Young Commander before, but Jiang Chenghuan was the honorary director of the university. He would always visit the campus and had been invited as a guest lecturer for the Department of Finance.
There were a lot of ladies who went to his lectures just to see his handsome face, and even guys went, as he was someone they looked up to.
Unlike the heads of the other two of the Three Great Clans, who always acted mysteriously, Jiang Chenghuan had a much friendlier personality. He was like a star high up in the sky, but at least people could see him.
For such an important person to appear in the laboratory, everyone’s first reaction was to turn to look at Yao Xiaohui with pity in their eyes.
Jiang Chenghuan stood up straight and walked toward Zhao Yumo. He glared at her before looking at the equipment on the floor. “You did this?” he asked.
“Are you blind? Of course, it’s me. Pay for it, will you? There’s an idiot here who thinks paying for the broken equipment is not enough to solve this.”
“Didn’t I tell you over and over again that if you can’t solve something with money, that means you didn’t dish out enough money? Did I ask you to help save my money? You should just bury them with money instead of letting them humiliate you!” Jiang Chenghuan scolded as he directed the last sentence to Yun Xi.
He walked toward his sister and flicked her forehead. “Why are you embarrassing your brother here? Don’t you know I’m the director of this university now? So if someone is bullying you, they are bullying me too. Get it?”
Yao Xiaohui couldn’t believe what she had heard as she stared at Yun Xi and Jiang Chenghuan. She suddenly had a bad feeling about what was going to happen.
She knew that Jiang Chenghuan was the director, but she had never heard that Yun Xi was his sister. If she had really offended Jiang Chenghuan, not only would no one ever hire her in Jingdu, but she might not even get to graduate.
