Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Sensing a brewing tension, Liu Hua instinctively shielded Xia Wan behind him. “Li Pan, are you trying to harm Wanwan? You’re out of your mind, and you’ll face consequences!”
“I don’t need you to worry about me,” Li Pan retorted with disdain.
As she spoke, she pushed Liu Hua aside, and one of her roommates quickly restrained him.
Li Pan raised her arm, preparing to slap Xia Wan.
In response, Xia Wan swiftly raised her right hand and firmly caught Li Pan’s wrist.
With a smirk, she effortlessly pushed Li Pan to the ground.
Li Pan looked at Xia Wan in astonishment. “How is this possible? When did you become so strong?”
Xia Wan glanced at her two roommates, who were standing by her side. “What are you waiting for? Come on!”
The two girls lunged at Xia Wan, attempting to restrain her.
But Xia Wan evaded skillfully, and her hands swiftly gripped the wrists of the two girls, causing them to cry out in pain. “Ah! It hurts! Xia Wan, let go!”
“Let go? Did you intend to let me go earlier? Why is it acceptable for you to bully me, but I can’t defend myself?”
The two girls immediately pleaded for mercy. “We Imow we were wrong. Li Pan said you needed to be taught a lesson, so she asked us to join her. It’s not our intention!”
Liu Hua stood beside Xia Wan, his tone serious. “You’re accomplices in this. When Li Pan shared her plan with you, did you try to stop her? It seems you’re just glad to see Li Pan’s actions. You’re only protesting now because you realize you can’t overpower Wanwan.”
Xia Wan glanced at Liu Hua, realizing she had underestimated him in her past life. Not only was Liu Hua academically adept, but he also exhibited clear logical thinking.
Li Pan, apprehensive, took a step back. She recognized that Xia Wan had transformed and was no longer under her control.
“Xia Wan, let me warn you. Don’t even think about laying a hand on me. If you dare, I’ll inform my aunt. She’s a teacher here, and she’ll ensure severe consequences for you.”
Xia Wan sneered. “Really? So, because your aunt is a teacher, you can torment your classmates at will? If I weren’t familiar with some martial arts, what was your plan for teaching me a lesson today?”
Li Pan averted her gaze, unable to meet Xia Wan’s eyes.
Bending down, Xia Wan gripped Li Pan’s chin with a single hand. “Li Pan, if you’re willing to act, be ready to own up to it. Tell me the truth. How did you intend to ‘teach me a lesson ?
Under Xia Wan’s intense gaze, Li Pan felt a shiver of fear. Xia Wan’s demeanor had turned ruthless.
Nervously swallowing, Li Pan stammered, “I just thought of slapping you a couple of times, then maybe tearing your coat off to teach you a lesson. Honestly, I didn’t have any other intentions.”
Xia Wan’s gaze grew even colder. “We’re wearing short-sleeved shirts in this season. You planned to rip my shirt off. Isn’t that humiliating enough for me?”
“If I were a weaker person, I might not have the face to remain in school after enduring this humiliation. I might even contemplate suicide.”
“Li Pan, come with me to see the teacher.”
Xia Wan seized Li Pan’s collar with a firm grip and marched her to the office.
The teachers with no afternoon classes had already departed, leaving those with lessons to enjoy their lunch in the office.
Coincidentally, Jiang Rong was present.
Seeing her student, Jiang Rong set aside her lunch box and inquired, “What brings you here?”
Jiang Rong immediately sensed something amiss, observing the tense atmosphere among the five students.
Xia Wan addressed the situation directly. “Teacher, Li Pan initiated a conversation during class today, but I declined. I expressed my intent to focus on my studies and avoid gossiping in class. After class, she approached me about switching seats.”
“I’m unaware of her intentions, but I have no objections to changing seats.”
“However, after school, Li Pan enlisted her two roommates and locked the classroom door. They intended to intimidate me. Teacher, I believe I should report this to you.”
In the classroom, Li Pan had been quite confident. Now accused by Xia Wan, she quickly feigned victimhood, saying, “Teacher, that’s not true. I did discuss changing seats with Xia Wan, but I decided to respect her preference for a quieter learning environment. As for us being in the classroom after school, I was simply gathering my belongings.”
“As for Xia Wan, she has her own free will.. If she wanted to leave the classroom, who could have stopped her?”
