Shen Xi did not turn around, but she recognized that voice.

It was Su Ruowan’s best friend, the queen b*tch of Capital No. 4 High School, Liu Yan.

Noticing Shen Xi’s silence, Liu Yan sneered, “Little c*nt, Wanwan broke her leg because of you. To think you have the audacity to eat here, let me see how thick-skinned you are.”

“Hmph, so shameless of you. I can’t believe the Su family would adopt a b*stard like her.”

“Yeah, poor Goddess Wanwan, she got bullied by this worthless scum.”

“Rough her up, Sister Yan!”

Liu Yan’s girlfriends surrounded Shen Xi and jeered.

Shen Xi continued eating calmly. A cold, unapproachable aura emanated from her. She was proud and refined.

This annoyed Liu Yan, who poured her drink into Shen Xi’s lunch. “Eat it. I said, eat it!”

A slight frown appeared between Shen Xi’s brows and a threatening expression formed on her face.

“I’m letting you eat!” Liu Yan knocked on the table with a vicious glare. Then, she pushed Shen Xi’s plate of rice away violently.

Bang!

The food was spread across the floor.

Liu Yan laughed and pointed at the food on the floor. “Shen Xi, if you don’t eat it off the floor, I won’t let you go!”

The other girls laughed maniacally and goaded her on.

Other rubbernecking students looked at Shen Xi sympathetically.

Many of Su Ruowan’s loyal admirers cheered too, when they learned that Su Ruowan’s accident was related to Shen Xi.

They watched from the glass wall of the French restaurant on the second floor.

“Mushi, why don’t you go down and take a look?” Yu Qiubai observed the scene with great interest.

“What does that have to do with me?” Su Mushi chuckled coldly.

Assuming Liu Yan did not bother Shen Xi, he would not let her off the hook either. It was she who had caused Wanwan’s accident.

“Isn’t she your younger sister?” Yu Qiubai cupped his chin with both hands and raised his eyebrows. He seemed curious.

“Wanwan is my only younger sister!” Su Mushi looked away from Shen Xi with a scowl.

Her?

She was not fit to be his sister!

“Really?” Yu Qiubai smiled and pointed at Shen Xi. “But I find that she looks more like your mom.”

Su Mushi’s brows were instantly locked into a tight frown. “Yu Qiubai, quit yapping!”

Yu Qiubai shrugged, “Just saying. Why are you so angry?”

Su Mushi warned him, “Don’t joke about such things, or else I’ll call our friendship quits.”

Shen Xi looked like Mom? How was that possible?

He felt repulsed when he saw Shen Xi!

In the canteen.

Shen Xi got up and squatted down.

Liu Yan laughed smugly. The little b*tch had to obey her, after all. She ordered, “Lick everything clean, or else.”

Yu Yuanxi, who sat opposite Shen Xi, had his gaze lowered. Slowly, his gaze hardened and he tightened his grip around his chopsticks.

It was too much!

Those horrible bullies!

When he saw Shen Xi standing up and then squatting down, he mustered up his courage and cried, “Don’t eat it!”

Shen Xi took out a pack of wet tissues, opened it, and wiped the food stains on his shoes. Her voice was cool. “I’m sorry to trouble you.”

Yu Yuanxi regarded the girl squatting before him in surprise.

Her fingers were slender and nicely shaped, like white jade that glistened in the sun.

His shoes were scrubbed clean, but they looked dirty and old as he had worn them for a long time.

He felt a bit nervous and wanted to withdraw his feet, but he did not want to reject her thoughtfulness.

“Shen Xi!” Liu Yan screamed angrily and directed a kick at her.
