Chapter 21 No One Can Bully You

The squable between Song Ye and Tang Mei Ling in the third year first cla.s.s was known to the whole school. As the entrance exam was drawing near, as if seasoning was added into the nerve wrecking atmosphere in the school, a slight disturbance can be felt in the air. After the cla.s.ses were done, there was even some people that came all the way over just to take a look at the good looking student from the gossips.

As for Song Ye, she had packed her things and hurriedly went out of the cla.s.sroom the moment the bell rang.

She actually only went back to the hotel and prepared herself to have a jog and exercise. After cutting herself off from the Song family, she was going according to her own life's rhythm. Under the situation where she was not worried about her food and water, she must hurry and increase her strength and ability.

She jogged by the riverside from late afternoon till evening; with the light from the evening sun reflected from the river to her face, her face seemed to be covered by a layer of golden light.

When she stopped at her final destination, which was nearby the school, she wiped the sweat off her forehead and was about to head to the stalls located at the back of the street to eat the dumplings.

As she was walking down the slope, she saw a fight happening nearby– No, it was a one-sided fight where one side outnumbered the other. The tall student that was. .h.i.t curled his body on the floor and he did not plead or begged even with all those punches and kicks directed to him.

The opponents were slightly older than him and was clearly not one of the students from her school. Now that they felt satisfied from beating him up, they then began to insult him,

“Hah! Are you scared now? We'll let you go if you were to call us ‘My Lords' and crawl under our crotch, hahaha…”

Men should never be humiliated by crawling under other's crotches; but these men did that in order to humiliate and insult him.

Even under the dark lighting and the face of the boy hugging his head cannot be seen, Song Ye was still able to recognize the boy as w.a.n.g Tie Chuan due to her photogenic memory.

Without any hesitation, she walked over and when the man was about to spit on w.a.n.g Tie Chuan, she landed a punch onto that man's arrogant face.

“Argh!”

That man shouted in pain and was sent flying a few meters away and rolled on the floor even after he landed.

*”You son of a b.i.t.c.h, dare to f.u.c.king beat my brother up, you're gonna regret it!”

After declaring war, they then began to fight without further ado and Song Ye had only took all of it as a warm up. She dodged left and right to train her agility and used unique technique to strike their body's weak points. Even though it did not seem as if she had exerted any strength, all the hits were in fact, fatal.

The opponents felt more and more scared as they fought. They originally thought that Song Ye, who seemed short and thin was a more easy target to bully than w.a.n.g Tie Chuan, but as they began to fight, they felt that something was more and more off. The spots where they were hit was so painful that is was unbearable. Would it be that this boy had used some dark magic?

A fight with five against one, Song Ye had only trained for five minutes and all of them was scared senseless and ran away.

On the other hand, w.a.n.g Tie Chuan that was beaten one-sided had froze up as he watch all of this unfold before him. They didn't know about it, but he knew clearly that the one standing in front was Song Ye who was a she, and was someone that would begin to cry after a cla.s.smate slightly scolded her in the past; but now she had beaten away five men at the same time.

“Can you stand up?”

Song Ye, with a cold looking face, turned towards w.a.n.g Tie Chuan who was staring blankly on the ground.

But w.a.n.g Tie Chuan was unable to come back to his senses and was only able to swallow his saliva and stammer,

“S-Song Ye?”

Don't tell me this person was possessed by something weird?!

“Mmn.”

Song Ye replied shortly and stretched out her palm, indicating that she was going to help him up.

w.a.n.g Tie Chuan then was able to regain his senses and got up from the ground by himself. With his body at 175cm slightly bowing, he then sheepishly thanked Song Ye,

“Thanks for your help earlier. your skills were very, very splendid.”

Yes, it was splendid as every punch was neat, and with her handsome face, there was an indescribable beauty.

In regards to compliments such as these, Song Ye did not react to it, but she remembered what he had told her this morning in cla.s.s,

“No one will be able to bully you as long as you are my desk mate.”

w.a.n.g Tie Chuan blanked out and smiled brightly soon after. When he was about to say something, he then looked behind Song Ye and happily waved his hand, shouting

**”Xu Ge!”

From behind her, footsteps can be heard coming near her but she did not turn her head back. This is because when she had began to fight, she felt these few people were nearby watching everything.

Following the presence that got nearer and nearer, a deep and attractive voice can be heard,

“Chuan Zi, it seems like I'm not needed to save you. Where did you know this cool dude?”

While talking, the guy had raised his hand and was about to place it on her shoulder as if they were brothers. When w.a.n.g Tie Chuan saw that, his facial expression changed and before he can say anything, Song Ye had grabbed onto the guy's arm and using the momentum, she twisted his arm behind his back, the force that she had exerted was enough to cause the guy to groan in pain.

Due to their current position, Song Ye was able to see the face of this Xu Ge and was slightly shocked as it was a face she knew.

Xu Zi Hang was also stupefied and subconsciously wanted to free his arm but soon found that he was unable to exert any force at all. The fingers that was grabbing his wrist felt cold, making people s.h.i.+vered from how cold it was.

w.a.n.g Tie Chuan had also became anxious and hurriedly explained,

“Song Ye, you're misunderstanding. This is my leader, Xu Zi Hang from first cla.s.s. He was not doing that out of ill intent.”

Song Ye also did not plan to cause any trouble to the other party and let the arm lock go. She still appeared to be unperturbed under the unhappy face of the other party.

The few people behind Xu Zi Hang were angered by that,

“Chuan Zi, what's up with this? Xu Ge was only greeting, did he even need to be so harsh?”

“No, all of you had misunderstood.”

w.a.n.g Tie Chuan scratched his head and only began to do introductions.

“This is Song Ye, my desk mate. And is a she.”

Uhm…

The surroundings then went quiet and Xu Zi Hang was also dumbfounded. As they had watched Song Ye's movement from the back, leaving the stature that seem quite short, with the short hair and cool movement, they had find her to be quite the charming young man and subconsciously thought that is a he.

Xu Zi Hang then turned his head over to observe Song Ye and had find her to be quite the good looking one. When he moved his glance downwards and reached….. Hmm, there was still a slight b.u.mp there.

And so, the famous Boss Xu of San Zhong became awkward. Mistakenly taking a girl as a bro and causing such a scene to happen.

Finally, the few boys, saying that it was fate that they met each other, would like to treat the warrior Song Ye to something; and the stall that they went to was the dumpling stall.

“Ahem, if you're not used to eating this, we can change to another place to eat.”

When all of them sat down and began to shout and order for food, only Xu Zi Hang had noticed Song Ye sitting there quietly and thought that she did not like it here and asked her.

“No, it's good.”

Song Ye still had her usual expression on her face where her emotions can't be noticed easily, causing the people around to be confused.

Xu Zi Hang then curled his lips to a smile and sat down, while w.a.n.g Tie Chuan was more attentive,

“Eh, Xue Ge. Song Ye is always like that but she's not a bad person at all. You will know after you know her long enough.”

Xu Zi Hang did not mind much about it afterwards. After the few of them were done with the preparations, they then began eating.

The eating speed of boys were considerably faster and their motions were rough as well. The only one that was of the same speed as Song Ye was Xu Zi Hang. Song Ye was able to deduct from his behavior and eating etiquette that he had came from either a rich or n.o.ble family.

But with him leading a bunch of delinquents was what was confusing.

After finis.h.i.+ng their food, they were originally going to go separate ways but the boys were curious about Song Ye and invited her to play basketball.

After thinking for a moment, Song Ye then nodded her head,

“There's bound to be a winner and a loser in a match; and with winners and losers, there will be rewards and punishment. So why don't we make a bet?”
