Chapter 31 Rumors

Where there is a first, there is a second. The rescue of the male student gave people hope.

The brave ones summoned up their courage and followed suit one after another.

The lucky ones landed without getting hurt and even had the courage to jump a second time, safely landing on the grass. Those who were less fortunate or landed incorrectly either sprained their ankles or got bruised.

Miaomiao said nothing. She climbed up and down repeatedly, pulling the immobile students off the platform.

“Don't run upstairs! Jump down quickly!”

Someone shouted. The students who were frantically running upstairs, pinning their hopes on the rescue, were all attracted.

Seeing so many rescued people downstairs, these students stopped running. They all stayed on the third floor and lined up to jump down.

As the number of people increased, Miaomiao ran up and down more and more urgently. The fire was gradually getting bigger, and every second was a race against time.

Afraid that they might fall incorrectly and die due to the crowding, everyone didn't dare to scramble. They jumped two by two, and it was still in an orderly manner.

The smoke was getting thicker. Even though the fire hadn't spread to the third floor yet, the billowing smoke had made many people extremely weak.

Soon, the first student collapsed. The old professor quickly organized the order and let the students who couldn't bear the smoke jump first.

Suffering from carbon dioxide poisoning, they were almost unconscious, walking crookedly. Seeing someone falling unconsciously, Miaomiao was quick - eyed and quick - handed. She used her light kung fu and caught the person in mid - air.

Miaomiao no longer held back. She directly climbed to the third floor, picked up the unconscious person, and leaped down.

From the height of the third floor, she landed lightly. Everyone stared at this in disbelief, unable to believe what they were seeing.

The old professor then re - organized the order, asking the students who still had the ability to act to jump down, and those who were weak or unconscious were to be carried away by Miaomiao.

The self - rescue operation was carried out in an orderly manner, and everyone was extremely nervous.

Miaomiao not only had to take care of the unconscious students on the third floor but also occasionally jumped onto the platform to throw the injured students down.

Fortunately, it was Friday morning, and there weren't many classes. There were only about a hundred people in total.

In just a few minutes, Miaomiao had rescued most of the students.

“Thank you... I'm sorry...”

Tao Jing, who had ridiculed Miaomiao in the classroom, was now in Miaomiao's arms. Looking at the person in front of her, Tao Jing blushed. She didn't know if it was out of embarrassment or awkwardness.

Just a few minutes ago, she was still being sarcastic to Miaomiao, but a few minutes later, her life was saved by the other person.

It felt a bit ironic...

Miaomiao ignored Tao Jing's thanks. After putting her on the ground, she continued to rush to the rescue.

“This girl has such good skills. I remember she seems to be in your class?”

A girl who knew Tao Jing came up to talk, her eyes full of admiration.

“Yes... I didn't know before that she was so good at kung fu.” Tao Jing forced a smile awkwardly.

The skills of Miaomiao flying up and down were only seen on TV before, and those were all with wire - work. Now seeing the real thing, besides the shock, there was more admiration and respect.

They admired Miaomiao's kung fu and respected her character...

Their class had always isolated Miaomiao. Usually, no one was willing to talk to her voluntarily. Once they did, it wouldn't be anything nice.

But the good - tempered Miaomiao never quarreled with them. She just stayed quietly in the corner every day, not caring about what others said.

At first, when Miaomiao jumped downstairs, she could have just walked away. After all, no one in this school knew that Miaomiao knew kung fu.

But she didn't.

Instead, in this moment of crisis, she let go of past grudges, showed her never - before - known kung fu, and did her best to rescue everyone.

Not everyone had such a broad mind.

Tao Jing looked at Miaomiao's busy figure thoughtfully. Thinking back to the beginning of the semester, the little porcelain - doll - like girl was liked by many.

They were all willing to take care of this little sister who seemed so well - behaved and gentle.

But when did it start to change?

Maybe it was when someone saw Miaomiao throwing away Shao Rong's water cup for no reason, and Shao Rong walked into the classroom crying.

Maybe it was when someone caught Miaomiao and Shao Rong walking out of the bathroom one after another, and Shao Rong looked so sad.

Maybe it was during the sports meeting when there were nails in Miaomiao's bag, and nails just happened to appear in Shao Rong's shoes.

Everyone was saying that because Shao Rong was also gentle and cute in appearance, Miaomiao tried every means to bully girls of the same type as herself.

Even Miaomiao's high - school classmates confirmed that Miaomiao was a spoiled child. Her family was rich and powerful, and no one dared to provoke her. She even got into college as a special - talent student, and her family donated money to the school.

While Shao Rong came from an ordinary family and got into this school through her own study and hard work.

This strong contrast, combined with the preconceived notion formed by hearsay, gradually made the people in the class classify Miaomiao as a despised young lady.

Everyone thought that she was bullying the children from ordinary families. Only Han Shuo was still willing to say a few words for her occasionally, but he always stopped at a superficial level.

Bang!

The loud noise of the explosion resounded through the sky.

Tao Jing's train of thought was pulled back. The fire was completely out of control. The biochemical laboratory and the chemical laboratory began to explode one after another. Flames shot out from the windows, burning Miaomiao's white coat.

There were still more than a dozen students on the third floor. Miaomiao quickly took off the burning clothes and threw them away. She speeded up and jumped upstairs to send the students down one by one.

After such a long - time high - intensity operation, Miaomiao was also a bit exhausted, and her speed obviously slowed down.

The fire had spread to the third floor. The remaining few students covered their mouths and noses, their eyes full of tears.

“Send the professor down first.”

When they got upstairs, Han Shuo supported the unconscious old professor and said anxiously.

Miaomiao nodded, picked up the professor horizontally, and jumped downstairs.

At this moment, only Han Shuo and Shao Rong, who had been protected by him, were left in the whole teaching building.

“I'm scared, wuwuwu. She doesn't like me usually...”

Shao Rong grabbed Han Shuo's clothes and cried pitifully. With just one sentence of “I'm scared”, Han Shuo immediately understood what she meant.

“Don't worry. It'll be okay. Miaomiao isn't like that. Tao Jing bullied her the most usually, but wasn't she also rescued?” Han Shuo turned back and gently comforted Shao Rong.

When he ran upstairs just now, he stumbled and sprained his ankle. Otherwise, he would have carried Shao Rong to safety long ago.

“Wuwuwu, don't...”

Miaomiao climbed up, out of breath. She saw Shao Rong's tearful face. She calmly scanned around without any emotional fluctuations.
