In the following days, Xia Weilan devoted herself whole - heartedly to her studies.
During the day, she was either in the teaching building or in the library. In the evenings, after dinner, Mo Beichen would always see Xia Weilan holding a thick book, nibbling on the tip of her pen while reading.
Mo Beichen had a new understanding of Xia Weilan. He never expected that this girl could be so absorbed in her studies.
Originally worried that Xia Weilan would be too clingy, Mo Beichen instead showed up several times while she was reading, rather than staying in the study on purpose.
One day, in the school cafeteria.
"Xia Weilan, you bumped into me." Han Lulu walked up to Xia Weilan, staggered a bit, then turned back and glared angrily at Xia Weilan.
Today, Han Lulu had brought several girlfriends with her. It was obvious that they came prepared and out - numbered Xia Weilan.
"Yes, I saw you bump into Lulu. Hurry up and apologize to her."
"Right. You can't even watch where you're going. Hurry up and make an apology."
Xia Weilan looked at the group of people who were booing. There were three high - handed young ladies usually, and Han Lulu, the woman who was in cahoots with her stepsister Lin Xuefei.
Xia Weilan narrowed her eyes. Judging from this situation, did they want to humiliate her in public?
Let's see if they had the ability!
Han Lulu stepped forward bravely in front of Xia Weilan, looking menacing as she said:
"Xia Weilan, don't push me too far. Don't think that just because you think I'm easy to bully, you can act so arrogantly."
"How did I bully you? Did I slap you? I don't remember doing that."
"You..." Han Lulu's face instantly turned pale. Why did Xia Weilan have to bring up her most embarrassing incident?
The whole school knew that she had been bullied by Xia Weilan at the school gate.
It had made her feel so ashamed in the past few days that she had lost interest in her usual fun and games.
She always felt that people were secretly laughing at her for being useless.
"Get out of the way if you're okay. The fried chicken legs are almost sold out."
Xia Weilan lifted her feet indifferently and continued walking towards the queue in the cafeteria.
Fried chicken legs?
So in Xia Weilan's eyes, she, Han Lulu, was not even as important as a fried chicken leg.
Some students in the queue turned their heads to watch the commotion, and some students eating glanced over. Hearing that Xia Weilan was eager to buy fried chicken legs, they couldn't help bursting into laughter.
Was Xia Weilan serious?
It was obvious to everyone that Han Lulu had come with people to show off her power today, but Xia Weilan didn't care at all. She had more important things to do!
Han Lulu was caught off guard. She watched as Xia Weilan walked into the queue, with one hand in her pocket, as if she didn't even care about the farce just now.
The few high - handed young ladies glanced at each other. They had been ready to take action, but now it was like punching at cotton. They were so angry that they were fuming.
"Xia Weilan, hurry up and apologize to me. My arm hurts from your bump." Han Lulu had no choice but to follow her and pestered her.
Some reasonable students were worried about Xia Weilan. It was really a headache to provoke such an arrogant person. They wondered if the seemingly delicate Xia Weilan would end up in a bad situation.
"You guys, pull her out for me."
Han Lulu didn't dare to take action herself. She wanted others to control Xia Weilan first, and then she would give her a good beating.
Just as someone was about to pull Xia Weilan, she dodged to the side, and that girl accidentally bumped into a man in front of the queue.
"What's going on? Can't we just have a peaceful meal? If you want to make trouble, go outside. It's so annoying." The man frowned and glared angrily at Han Lulu, the instigator.
Han Lulu was so angry that she was almost out of breath. She walked over directly, grabbed Xia Weilan's arm and dragged her out.
"Come out with me. I'll teach you a good lesson."
Han Lulu dragged Xia Weilan directly to the cafeteria entrance.
Not long after, screams were heard from there.
As soon as Xia Weilan reached the entrance, she didn't hold back and took action. Several girls surrounded her, trying to stop her, but they were knocked dizzy by her sweeping palm wind.
Han Lulu was even punched twice and squatted on the ground, covering her stomach and unable to even cry out.
On the contrary, Xia Weilan's clothes didn't even have a single wrinkle. She stood there gracefully, as if the person who had just suddenly attacked wasn't her.
"What's going on with you students? Are you actually fighting here?" A middle - aged man wearing old - fashioned glasses walked over.
"Teacher, it was Xia Weilan who provoked me and beat us all up." Han Lulu said intermittently, looking weak and about to faint from anger.
"Ah, I'm in so much pain. I'm going to faint." Han Lulu suddenly had an idea. She swayed and was about to faint.
Seeing Han Lulu slowly fall, Xia Weilan narrowed her eyes, stepped forward and stepped directly on her hand.
"Ah..." Han Lulu woke up from the pain and glared angrily at Xia Weilan.
"Looks like you're not fainting anymore?" There was a hint of coldness at the corner of Xia Weilan's lips.
"Stop this nonsense. All of you go to the teaching office and call your parents here." Director Chen adjusted his glasses and was extremely angry.
Call in the parents?
This was a bit of a problem for Xia Weilan.
Grandpa Xia was highly respected. If he was invited to the teaching office, even Director Chen would probably offer him tea.
Xia Weilan didn't want to bother the old man about such a thing.
As for Wei Hongmei, it was even more impossible to call her. Calling her was like calling an enemy.
And Xia Weilan couldn't call her younger brother who was still in high school, could she?
Sighing, Xia Weilan took out her phone and found the phone number marked "husband".
"Husband, I'm in urgent need of help. Are you free now?" Xia Weilan secretly sent a text message in the teaching office.
In the Moying Group, Mo Beichen, who was about to accompany an important business partner to dinner, suddenly stopped in his tracks.
His long eyes looked at the four words "urgent need of help", slightly knitted together, and his expression became serious.
The boss beside him looked at him in surprise. He thought that Mo Beichen might have encountered something big, otherwise why would he have such a serious expression.
Mo Beichen paused for a few seconds. His forehead was knitted into a knot, and then he quickly called back.
"Husband..." Xia Weilan walked to a corner and said in a low voice.
"What happened?" There was a flash in Mo Beichen's eyes.
"The teacher asked me to call in the parents. I was surrounded by people today and couldn't help but fight back. Are you free? I'm in the teaching office." Xia Weilan said these words with great difficulty.
"I'll be there right away." Mo Beichen made a prompt decision and directly hung up the phone.
"Mr. Mo, if you have something urgent to do, go ahead. Don't worry about me." The boss quickly said. Seeing Mr. Mo's dark face, he wondered if there was some bad news.
Mo Beichen nodded and walked out like a gust of wind.
The boss standing there also became nervous. He had no idea that Mo Beichen's wife had beaten someone up and was required by the teacher to call in the parents.
