Vol. 1 - Ch. 17 - Unexpected intruder

SuLiu wore a decorated school uniform, looking crisp and elegant with subtle makeup that complemented her striking figure, easily capturing the attention of others.Perhaps to the original, this was a scene he longed to see countless times. However, for HuMing, he only finds her troublesome.

Honestly, if not for his special status, he wouldn't want to attract so much attention at school. Now that there's an opportunity to shake off one burden, why wouldn't he take it?

Upon hearing HuMing's words, SuLiu's eyes instantly welled up with tears.

Despite her efforts to reassure herself, HuMing's indifferent gaze continued to deeply pain her.

HuMing turned to leave, but SuLiu blocked his path before he could.

"HuMing, there are certain things we need to clarify between us!"

"Wasn't it clear enough the other day? Did you fail to understand what was said?"

"Why did you delete my contact?" SuLiu asked, spreading her arms to block HuMing from leaving.

"Aren't we friends? Is it really necessary to delete me over such a trivial matter?!"

Upon hearing this, HuMing couldn't help but chuckle. Damn, she treated the original like a pet fish, and now she's asking why he's being so heartless. This SuLiu really has some nerve.

Standing nearby, Ye QiuXue was surprised after hearing SuLiu's words. She thought HuMing's threat to delete SuLiu was just out of anger, but he actually did it. Moreover, it seemed like he wasn't planning to add her back!

"SuLiu, do you honestly believe I'm an idiot? Why should I continue with something that yields no results? I believe the time I invested previously could have been better spent on something else."

HuMing paused and took a deep breath, determined to avoid any further entanglement with this matter.

"This is the final time I'm telling you - I have no intention of pursuing you any further. I refuse to waste my time on fruitless endeavors. I want us to be strangers starting now. Do you understand?"

"No, I don't understand! Who said it was fruitless? I don't want to be strangers!"

SuLiu cried, her tears resembling pear blossoms in the rain, causing onlookers to feel sorry for her. At the same time, they also admired HuMing for his determination.

"Are you two forgetting someone?"

A cold voice spoke from the side, alerting everyone to the presence of another figure.

Although everyone's attention had been drawn to the situation between HuMing and SuLiu, the girl before them now was not someone to be trifled with.

She was regarded as the most capable student council president since the school's founding.

Ye QiuXue folded her arms and stared coldly at the two before speaking.

"Although the school rarely interferes with students' relationships, even if we were aware, we normally turn a blind eye. But by doing this so publicly, are you disrespecting the student council?"

She slowly pulled out her armband and waved it in front of them---the word 'Discipline' especially noticeable.  

At this moment, everyone realized what SuLiu had done. She stirred up trouble at a place she shouldn't have.

Ye QiuXue put away her armband again, her expression unchanged even in the face of SuLiu's displeasure.

"SuLiu, I have no idea what happened between you two. But I advise you to stop this misconduct unless you can be as shameless as HuMing and be punished by me daily."

HuMing felt struck; why was he being drawn into this when he was the one trying to keep his distance?

SuLiu's expression worsened as he heard Ye QiuXue's words. She bit her lip and stared intently at Ye QiuXue.

She despised this woman, if not loathed her. Why did HuMing get so close to her? Didn't he previously say that he disliked her?

Her fists clenched, a surge of emotion rising within her. But when she met HuMing's amused gaze, she instantly felt defeated.

Because HuMing was now helplessly smiling at Ye QiuXue, you could see dote in his eyes, which belonged to her! Sᴇaʀch* Thᴇ NʘvᴇlFire.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

SuLiu's heart was filled with regret and shame as tears flowed from her eyes. Her expression, however, went unnoticed.

As more people gathered, Ye QiuXue asked them to leave. If outsiders saw, she'd have more work to do. She turned around and signaled for everyone to disperse and go home.

However, among the crowd, she noticed a girl dressed distinctively differently than the others approaching. She was dressed as a maid and appeared very frail. Her face remained expressionless, devoid of any smile.

Ye Qiu Xue was intrigued by this. But then a roar and a girl's scream sounded from behind her. Ye QiuXue instinctively turned and saw HuMing fall a few steps back.

An enraged boy stood before HuMing, clenching his fist and glaring fiercely. HuMing covered his cheek, his expression showing slight pain.

SuLiu stared at the injured HuMing, her face filled with disbelief. But she quickly reacted and shouted at the person beside her.

"SuZhe, what are you doing?! Why did you hit HuMing!"

"Han HuMing was bullying you like that. I can't just ignore it! How dare he treat you that way, he's just a bastard who doesn't even know who his parents are!"

By this point, SunZhe's rationality had been completely consumed. Being SuLiu's pursuer, he couldn't bear seeing HuMing treat her this way.

In his eyes, whatever SuLiu did to HuMing, she was not wrong, and Hu Ming had no right to reject Su Liu!

This type of Simp was more extreme than the original HuMing. But SuLiu did not choose him for one simple reason: He had no money!

Ye QiuXue snapped out of her surprise, but her expression had darkened completely. For this to happen right under her nose was entirely due to her negligence.

She never imagined someone would do something so extreme for a girl!

"Assaulting someone is bad enough, but insulting a classmate as well? Having a student like you in our school is a huge disgrace!"

Just as Ye QiuXue was about to pull out her phone to call the cops, someone swiftly walked past her.

HuMing squinted while holding his cheek as he pondered whether taking that punch on purpose had any value. Someone else's actions were faster than his own.

A slim figure marched straight up to SunZhe. Taking advantage of SunZhe's delay in action, she delivered a punch squarely to his stomach.

SunZhe's eyes widened, and he crumpled from the pain.

But his assailant was not done yet. Her small frame exuded incredible strength. The girl grabbed him by the arm and collar and forcefully slammed him to the ground.

Silence descended upon the scene; no one expected another intruder to join the fray!

HuMing's mouth slid open slightly. His expression was now only one of exaggerated surprise, completely ignoring the minor pain on his face.

Wasn't that his maid?!
