Chapter 19: Quarrel 2

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

  "Absolutely not!"

  "Hui Zhen! What's wrong with you? Why are you so obsessed with this matter? Why must he stay here?!"

  His question has got me stumped, why? Is it just because we are good friends? Or is it just because I admire his strength? Or what reason? Why do I have to go and protect him? Why?

  "Hui Zhen, he's indeed very talented, but he's not one of us, he doesn't fit in here!"

  He saw my silence as if he had seen hope and tried to persuade me again.

  "Why isn't he considered one of us? Why doesn't he fit in here? Is it just because he's a commoner? What's wrong with being a commoner, anyway? Are our so-called nobles all born into noble families? Many people have risen from commoners to nobles! Why can they be accepted while Luo Chen can't?! His talent is unmatched even by the noble students, isn't it?!"

  Why!! Why is it always the same argument, the same reason!! Just because he doesn't fit into the noble circle, he's a commoner, even if he has talent, he can't be recognized as a commoner!!

  "We didn't deny his talent! Hui Zhen, don't make things difficult for your classmates, and don't make things difficult for Luo Chen anymore. Haven't you seen that under your protection, Luo Chen hasn't suffered less harm, but more? On the contrary, more classmates are jealous of your special treatment towards him and feel it's unfair, which is also making things difficult for him! If you really care about his well-being, then you shouldn't let him stay here!"

  Xu is no longer as gentle as he used to be. At this moment, he really got angry! Is it really my fault?...

  "I..."

  "What's going on? The atmosphere is so eerie! What happened?"

  My words had not yet been spoken when they were interrupted by the wind that walked in.

  "Ah, Nangong Feng classmate, don't worry about it!" The girls explained with sparkling eyes.

  "Huh? Then why are our school beauty and school heartthrob arguing?"

  Feng Jue asked the girls around him, but his eyes were fixed on me.

  "...that..." was asked by him like that, the girls said it's not right if they say something, and it's also not right if they don't say anything, they didn't know how to answer.

  "This is none of your business, pack up your school bag and go back to where you should be." I turned my head away from him and said coldly.

  After a while, I didn't hear an answer and thought he had left. When I turned around, I found Feng Ze was staring at me coldly.

  "No one can influence my choice." He said coldly and walked over to sit down beside me.

  "Don't sit there!" I hastily jumped back into my seat and shouted at him.

  "What right do you have?" He raised his head coldly and stared at me.

  "You don't have the qualifications for that!"

  "Who would be qualified to sit here? Is it the person you had a fight with, the school beauty?"

  "Hum, someone who is qualified, will never be you!!"

  "I think I should be the most qualified, do I need to give reasons why?!"

  "You're shameless...!!"

  He stood up in anger, wrapped his arms around my waist and threatened me.

  Hmph, threat? Feng Jue, you despicable thing!

  "Let go of Hye-jin!"

  Xuē came to my side, glaring at Feng Jué, and grabbed my arm, trying to pull me back.
