Chapter Eighteen: Quarrel 1

  "Hey, don't go so fast~" Feng Jue stepped up beside me.

  "Get out."

  I ignored him and continued walking quickly to class, I didn't want to see this guy who made me want to kill him yet had to be grateful to.

  "Hey... don't be like that... I said I'll take responsibility, didn't I? Since you're going to be mine from now on, don't make that face anymore..."

  He finished speaking with a sly smile and even threw me a flirtatious glance. Damn it, this rascal!!!

  "Bang!" I suddenly stopped and turned around, but didn't expect to bump into Feng Jue who was following behind me.

  "Hehe ~ I knew you were shy ~ Look, this is already a done deal ~"

  Feng Jue reached out and tightly wrapped his arms around my waist before I could leave his embrace, lowering his head to gaze at me with a wicked smile as my face turned pale.

  "Let me go!" Ugh, what a shameless man!!

  "Aww, don't be angry, okay? I know my attitude wasn't great before. But as the woman of a great man like me, you should have a lot of tolerance. So forgive me, dear?"

  I really can't understand the situation with this man, is he really stupid or pretending to be stupid?! Obviously, at first, he just wanted to use money to get rid of me, how did he suddenly change his mind and want to take responsibility, and even transfer to our school?! No wonder I've been having a bad day today!!

  Bang!!

  I finally managed to free one hand, and without thinking, I swung it at his handsome face. Along with the crisp sound, I narrowed my eyes, which had a layer of frost, and said coldly:

  "Listen up, back then you saved us and I'm grateful for that. So I won't pursue what you did to me, but that doesn't mean we'll be friends from now on. From this day forward, we're even, neither of us owes the other anything!"

  After finishing speaking, I ignored him with a face full of anger and some astonishment, pushed him away forcefully, turned around and quickly walked back to class.

  Yes, just like how the Flame Gang and the Frost Gang don't interfere with each other's business, Wind Blade and I won't have any involvement with each other either.

  He saved us by chance, and that night I also sacrificed myself to save his life. From now on, neither of us owes the other anything, and we will never have any more dealings with each other!

  "Hye-jin, are you okay?" As soon as I returned to class, I saw Hyeon with a worried face.

  "It's alright, Huan, don't worry." I smiled lightly and gave him a reassuring look.

  "Hui Zhen... I'm sorry..." My classmates looked at me apologetically, unsure of what to say.

  "Does everyone really care about me?" Seeing their guilty eyes, I couldn't bear to blame them anymore.

  "Of course!! We truly regard you as our role model and friend!" The classmates chimed in unison.

  "So, can't everyone just give me some face and tolerate Luo Chen? I'm not asking you to accept him or truly acknowledge him, but at least don't make things difficult for him anymore, don't exclude him again, okay?"

  I don't know why, but at this moment I put down my usual coldness and used a gentle, almost pleading tone to persuade them, to ask them. What is it that makes me like this? I don't understand, but as long as Luo Chen can feel better, I'm willing!

  "Uh..." Everyone looked at each other in dismay, exchanging awkward glances.

  "Hui Zhen, don't make it difficult for them either. Why not let Luo Chen transfer to another class?" Xuan suddenly came up with an idea.

  "Yes, yes! This idea is great!!" Everyone nodded in agreement.

  "No way!"

  I resolutely refused, of course it was out of the question, they could bully Luo Chen in front of me, let alone in another class?

  "Hui Zhen, this is a good idea, why must he stay in our class? Other classes also have classmates like him who are poor but talented, they can communicate with each other and support each other!"

  Why did Hyeon look so anxious and angry? What's wrong with him? How could he have such an expression?
