Chapter 3: Stay Away From Me
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
There was a two meters high wall behind the boys toilet. People seldom ventured over there, but it served as the secret base of many male students.
These students would lean against the wall and smoke after classes.
Since it was almost time for the afternoon lessons, there was only a solitary figure leaning there.
The youth was wearing a plain white shirt with the top two buttons undone. His thin and well-formed collar bone could be seen but his skin was sickly pale.
With his head bent, a patch of soft black hair covered his forehead, covering his cold, almond-shaped eyes. His facial features were distinct and his figure was perfect.
She could feel the coldness emanating out of his persona from afar.
Wen Ruan ran over to him. She was panting hard. A gush of hot air blew across and ruffled the youth’s black hair. He lifted his head up and threw a glance at her.
His deep, black eyes were full of hostility and there wasn’t any warmth in them when he looked at her.
Wen Ruan’s heart was throbbing rapidly with guilt and panic.
He quickly retrieved his gaze and flicked the ash away from his cigarette with an indifferent expression.
Wen Ruan furrowed her eyebrows.
In her previous life, they were arch-rivals all the way till they graduated. They hated one another so much that they wished the other person dead!
Till now, she couldn’t understand why he would collect her body and murder Huo Jingxiu and Ye Wanwan on her behalf.
However, what was most important at this moment was to get him to leave from here as soon as possible.
“Classmate Huo, the discipline master is coming soon. You’d better extinguish the cigarette now…”
Before Wen Ruan could even finish speaking, she heard the discipline master’s angry voice. “I have already emphasized on Monday’s flag raising ceremony that no smoking is allowed in school. If what you said is true, I will punish him harshly!”
“It’s definitely true, discipline master. But I can’t come along with you. He is going to bear a grudge against me if he gets to know that I am the one who notified you!”
The discipline master’s expression worsened after he heard the student’s words and he sped up his strides.
Wen Ruan saw Huo Hannian standing there like an ice sculpture, without any panic in his eyes. Instead, she was the one shaking in terror when she saw the discipline master coming closer.
Right then, Wen Ruan got an idea!
Just when the discipline master was going to pass by the girls toilet, a pail of dirty water was splashed all over his feet.
The discipline master’s leather shoes and pants were drenched instantly.
“I’m so sorry, discipline master! I was washing the toilet as part of my punishment. I didn’t expect that I would accidentally pour the dirty water on you…”
The discipline master stared at Wen Ruan in anger. She was wearing a super short skirt, had thick make-up on her face and was holding a pail of dirty water in her hand.
“Wen Ruan, don’t continue to misbehave in school just because your family is rich. Look at your colored hair and your clothes. Do you look like a student?”
The discipline master didn’t like students such as Wen Ruan who were the incessant troublemakers in the school. If Old Mrs. Wen hadn’t donated an entire library building to the school, given Wen Ruan’s marks and character, there was no way she could enter the best elite school in Yun City.
Wen Ruan was perpetually lectured by the discipline master. She would acknowledge it smilingly when she was in a good mood, and talk back whenever she wasn’t happy. In the end, she always made the discipline master angry.
“Discipline master, I used that pail of water to clean the commode earlier. Would you like to go back and change before you lecture me?”
An unpleasant whiff blew over and the discipline master looked like he wanted to swallow Wen Ruan in one go. “Since Student Wen loves to work hard, you shall wipe all the glass panes in the teachers’ office building this afternoon!”
He left swiftly after handing over the new punishment to her.
After a few moments, the discipline master furrowed his brows.
He felt that he had forgotten about something. But looking at his feet, he hastened his stride and walked away.
Wen Ruan looked towards the wall after the discipline master left.
The youth had already finished his cigarette. He straightened up and walked over.
Standing close to Wen Ruan, his thin lips spat out the hostile words. “Stay away from me.”
