Xia Jinmian went to a small clinic to treat her wounds.

There were minor bone fractures on her calf and several lacerations and serious abrasions on her body.

These injuries might have been debilitating for the average Joe.

However, to Xia Jinmian—who had been put through the wringer in the training camp—these injuries were not a sausage and did nothing to hinder her mobility.

Xia Jinmian returned to the orphanage at 11 p.m..

The orphanage dormitory had a large bunk with eight people sharing it. When they saw Xia Jinmian return in a sorry state, they started mouthing off; taking advantage of Xia Jinmian’s obsequious personality to bully her.

“Xia Jinmian, why are you only back now? You’re so dirty. Get lost quickly!”

“So, you got dumped? You came back so late today and didn’t wash our clothes!”

“Xia Jinmian, quickly go and wash our clothes! We need them tomorrow!”

“The dishes in the kitchen are still not washed either. Remember to wash them too!”

They had been pawning off all their unwanted chores to Xia Jinmian who would accept obsequiously.

After all, Xia Jinmian liked to please them!

However, before they could get over their smugness, they realized that Xia Jinmian was acting very abnormally today. She did not put down her school bag and run out to wash the clothes as usual. Instead, she threw her school bag aside and coolly played the “air piano” with her fair and slender fingers. She cast a look of ill intentions at the people on the bed.

“Are you crazy? Why are you staring at us? Is it our fault you came back late and there’s no food left?”

“Hurry up and wash the clothes! If you dawdle any longer, we’ll lock the door and you’ll sleep outside!”

“Hurry up and go!”

Xia Jinmian suddenly sneered. Her beautiful eyes were filled with contempt as if she was looking at ants. “So this is how you bullied me in the past? Why don’t… I let you have a taste of being bullied?”

They were stunned by Xia Jinmian’s aura.

However, there would always be those who were not afraid of death and sneered disdainfully.

“You? Xia Jinmian, you want to bully us? Hahahaha… I’m dying of laughter!”

Xia Jinmian’s smile was sinister and dangerous. “Don’t worry, I won’t laugh you to death; I’ll pummel you to death.”

“Ah—”

In the blink of an eye, everyone was on the floor and screaming in pain.

When the security guard passing by heard the cries coming from the dormitory, he immediately ran over and knocked on the door.

Xia Jinmian opened the door just a crack.

She raised her eyebrows at the security guard, and asked with a cool and arrogant look. “What’s up?”

The security guard was stunned—he had not seen Xia Jinmian like this before—and felt a little awkward. He cast a cautious glance into the dormitory.

Xia Jinmian sneered and asked, “Do you want to come in and take a look? Don’t worry, they’re all naked.”

“…” The security guard blushed and did not dare to look anymore. He was nervous under Xia Jinmian’s beautiful gaze and stuttered, “You… you guys… have to be moderate when fighting.”

“Okay. Good night.”

“Good night…”

The door closed and the security guard ran away, red-faced.

The next day, the seven girls in Xia Jinmian’s dormitory went to school with swollen faces. Xia Jinmian had been merciful and did not beat them to a pulp.

However, a few of them snitched to Bai Yumo on the way to school, saying that Xia Jinmian seemed to have changed into a different person. In the past, she was an easy target to bully and did whatever they told her to do. Now, she was like a powder keg that would explode at any moment. They had barely said a word before she worked them over.

After Bai Yumo heard this, she said gently, “I’m worried that Xia Jinmian gave up on herself because An Lan broke up with her. Don’t be angry. Xia Jinmian might have taken things too hard for a moment. When she gets over it, we’ll still be good friends.”

“Yumo, you’re too kind. Xia Jinmian can’t hold a candle to you at all. She still doesn’t know her place and must be plotting to steal An Lan back. She won’t appreciate your magnanimity in helping her out. I’ve never seen such a shameless woman like Xia Jinmian!”

“That’s right, that’s right! It’s your birthday today. I bet Xia Jinmian didn’t even prepare a gift for you. That heartless b*tch!”

Bai Yumo snorted helplessly. “Alright, I’ll ask An Lan to treat you to dinner tonight. Don’t be angry.”

“Handsome An Lan is going too?”

“Yeah, I’ll invite Xia Jinmian too. You guys have to play nice and don’t fight.”

The girls looked at each other and evil thoughts ran wild in their mind.

Xia Jinmian, you’re in for it tonight!
