Chapter 1180: Pour Dirty Water!
“Liang Xiaoxiao!” As if she were a cat that had its tail stepped on, Liu Yintong instantly felt irritated and couldn’t hold it back anymore. She yelled in a shrill manner, “Don’t forget that I’m still considered as your senior sister! Be more respectful!”
“Senior Sister?” Liang Xiaoxiao smiled widely. “A senior sister that entered the academy earlier than us but has skills far behind us?”
Her words were filled with mockery.
Liu Yintong was so angry that her face turned red, and there seemed to be a fire burning in her eyes! These people… are overboard!
However, Chu Liuyue raised her brows slightly. Confess… in public? Oh, it seems like Rong Xiu is quite popular in the academy. No wonder the atmosphere between Liu Yintong and Jiang Zhiyuan was so strange. When these two enemies met, their eyes turned especially red. It seems like these two people have previously exchanged blows a few times, openly and secretly.
However, Liu Yintong was clearly on the losing end. The other party has more people, and they are more capable than her. It’s normal that she would be humiliated.
“Xiaoxiao,” said Jiang Zhiyuan as if she had intentions of making peace. “They’re all matters of the past. Why bring it up again? Anyway…”
Anyway, the person currently beside Rong Xiu isn’t either of us.
Jiang Zhiyuan had long known that Rong Xiu had many admirers in the academy. If she targeted them one by one, she would be exhausted. Hence, she only wanted to shoot the bird that stuck out, which is why she fought with Liu Yintong to this extent.
There were many people that liked Rong Xiu, but most of them didn’t even dare to talk to him. However, this Liu Yintong… actually confessed to Rong Xiu in public.
The incident spread far and wide back then, causing Jiang Zhiyuan to remember it in her heart. Although Rong Xiu didn’t even give Liu Yintong an additional gaze, it still happened, and Jiang Zhiyuan was very upset about it.
The more ridiculous thing was that Rong Xiu had told Liu Yintong that he already had someone he liked. This wasn’t just for Liu Yintong but for all those people who had thoughts about him in the academy.
After Liu Yintong knew about this, she instinctively thought it was Jiang Zhiyuan. Hence, she caused a scene at the latter’s place.
The two held a grudge against each other since then.
When Rong Xiu wasn’t even in the academy any longer, the two of them still had a deep grudge and would be in an awkward situation every time they met.
It was still fine in the beginning. Later on, as time passed, Jiang Zhiyuan caught up to Liu Yintong and gradually overtook the latter. Additionally, with the news of her being romantically close to Rong Xiu, quite a few people wanted to befriend her in the academy.
Jiang Zhiyuan’s capabilities strengthened greatly, and she expanded her connections, quickly suppressing Liu Yintong.
Hence, Liu Yintong’s life at the academy gradually became not so good.
Although Jiang Zhiyuan didn’t finish her sentence, everyone could tell that she didn’t even take Liu Yintong seriously, considering her nonchalant look.
Liang Xiaoxiao smiled curtly. “Great, great! Since you’ve said that, then… Senior Sister Liu, stay safe on your journey back. We won’t send you off.”
Liu Yintong’s gaze was sharp. She was about to retort when Gong Sheng held her back.
His normally playful and disrespectful face looked worried for once. “Ah Tong, bear with it for a while to avoid trouble.”
Currently, we really aren’t their match.
Liu Yintong flung his hand away. “I know how to walk!”
But the moment she took a step out, she heard Jiang Zhiyuan’s voice come from behind. “Mm, there’s nothing much to be angry about… There’s no need to lose my status for such a person…”
When Liu Yintong heard this, her suppressed anger finally exploded! She turned around in anger and quickly walked back.
Gong Sheng saw that her expression was amiss and hurriedly went to pull her back. “Ah Tong—”
Liu Yintong quickly dodged him and didn’t even let him touch her.
Detecting Liu Yintong’s ferociousness, Liang Xiaoxiao and the rest all looked over.
“Jiang Zhiyuan!” Liu Yintong stood still and stared straight at Jiang Zhiyuan.
Jiang Zhiyuan knitted her brows lightly.
Liu Yintong coldly sneered. “Who do you think you are? Do you really think Rong Xiu cares about you? The news has long been spread around the academy. Rong Xiu has long chosen his princess consort, and that person isn’t you! You’ve always stayed in the Sky-Cloud Empire with the identity of future princess consort, but you never thought that you wouldn’t even be his mistress in the future, right?”
Her sentence was said hurriedly and anxiously as if it were a cannon that shot out, not giving anyone time to react!
Jiang Zhiyuan’s expression finally changed! “Liu Yintong, how dare you!?”
Liu Yintong chuckled. “How dare I? What identity are you using to talk to me in this manner? In terms of status, your Fairy Water Mound is just one of the many divisions in the Sky-Cloud Empire. You’re considered a second-tier family! In terms of seniority, you entered the academy after me. Don’t you know the meaning of ‘being respectful toward your elders as a junior?! In terms of skills… Yes, your ranking on the warrior list is higher than mine, but I am ranked on two lists. If we really compare, I might not be worse than you in any way!”
“The Sky-Cloud Empire’s princess consort hasn’t scolded me yet. How is it your turn?!”
Crash!
Jiang Zhiyuan finally couldn’t hold herself back as she directly slapped Liu Yintong!
Her combat skills were better than Liu Yintong’s, so the latter couldn’t even hide from this slap.
The surroundings fell into deadly silence.
Chu Liuyue stroked her chin with much interest in a seemingly smiling manner. Someone isn’t around, yet he can cause such a big commotion. He’s really something…
“Jiang Zhiyuan!” Gong Sheng immediately stood forward and blocked Liu Yintong. He then furrowed his brows tightly. “You’re too overboard!”
Jiang Zhiyuan regretted it the moment she took action. I’ve always maintained a good public image. Who would’ve thought I would take action when I was agitated—
Quite a few people looked at her.
Her eyes rapidly turned red, and she looked like she had suffered grievances. “I… I don’t have the right! He doesn’t like me. The agreement between the elders and us growing up together were all for naught. If he likes someone, it would be fine even if she came from outside the realm. What do I count for?”
Then, she stomped her feet and rapidly left.
“Hey, Zhiyuan!” Liang Xiaoxiao called after her and anxiously said to the few people beside her, “Why are you still in a daze? Chase after her quickly!”
Those few people rapidly followed her.
Liang Xiaoxiao took a few steps out and turned back to glance at Liu Yintong. “We’ll remember what you’ve done today!”
Then, her figure also rapidly disappeared before the crowd.
Liu Yintong’s face turned white. At this point, she then understood what exactly she had just done!
Chu Liuyue crossed her arms, and her long and slender fingers knocked gently. Her brows had risen slightly. She… publicly poured dirty water on me?
