Chapter 9 He is protected by me

  "Hui Zhen." A pleasant voice suddenly came from behind me.

  I turned around and it was Ouluochen, he looked at me with a guilty and moved expression.

  "Luó Zhēn, it's alright, don't worry!" I smiled gently at him.

  "I'm sorry, Hye-jin. That bucket of dirty water shouldn't have been poured on you. I'm really sorry!"

  Looking at me who was splashed with a bucket of dirty water, Luo Chen looked at me with guilt and some heartache.

  Ou Luo Chen, it is said that he lost his parents at a young age and had no inheritance or relatives to rely on, so from a young age, he relied on his own two hands to make a living. His slender build and extremely ordinary appearance, coupled with his poor family background, made him seem like a lowly person in the eyes of his noble classmates, despite his exceptional talent. Since he arrived at school, he was often bullied and insulted by his classmates, and sometimes even beaten without reason, simply because he was a commoner...

  "Ah! It's so cold!"

  Like every day, I wore my overcoat and strolled around the schoolyard. It had just snowed, so the weather was quite cold, but the cool air made me feel a bit more alert. My slender high heels stepped on the thick snow, making crunching sounds. Wrapped in my coat, I was about to head towards the teaching building when I suddenly heard a string of curses and the sound of someone being beaten up.

  You little rascals, you're getting bolder and bolder! You dare to fight right under my nose in broad daylight? How annoying is that?!

  "What are you doing?" I said lightly, but my tone was icy cold.

  "Who's this... Ah, Hui... Hui Zhen... What are you doing here?" The boys looked a bit flustered at my sudden appearance.

  "Hum, you dare to fight in school? You're getting more and more out of line!"

  I took a glance at them and found that they were surrounding a tall boy. The situation didn't seem like a fight, but rather...

  "Are you bullying someone?" I narrowed my eyes and stared at them.

  "That... Hye-jin... We were just trying to get rid of the harm for the people... That... He..." The boys explained, trembling.

  "Oh, so you're going to save the people and eliminate the harm? When did it become your turn to do such things?" I sneered.

  "Uh..." The boys looked at each other, unsure of how to defend themselves.

  "Get lost." I pushed them away and walked towards the surrounded boy.

  As I approached, the boy slowly raised his head. Although he was plain to the point of being unremarkable, through those clumsy glasses, I saw a clear and stubborn gaze...

  In an instant, I was drawn in by his eyes... Although he was wearing clothes of unknown brand, I could feel a unique temperament from him that set him apart from others...

  "Who is he?" I asked coldly.

  "He's just a new commoner... That low-born!" The boys looked at him with disdain.

  "A bunch of useless things! Just because he's a commoner you insult him like this?" I looked at them disdainfully.

  "Huh... Hua Zhen?" The boys looked at me with some surprise.

  "Listen up, spread the word to all students immediately, from this moment on, he is under my protection!"

  "Hui... Hui Zhen! He's actually a..."

  The boys looked at me in disbelief, wanting to remind me that he was an "untouchable".

  "Scram! If I see you bullying or insulting him again, you'll know the consequences."

  I gazed coldly at their disbelieving expressions, and after they left, I turned around to look at the boy...
