Chapter 56 (I Don’t Have Any Special Feeling for Zhao Yuan) Wenxi Managed to Appease Wanxin

The results came out, and Chen Wanxin’s team got only the third prize. Chen Wanxin, who was determined to win the first prize, felt annoyed upon knowing this, as she had worked hard and carefully rehearsed this dance again and again during the past month. She walked down the stage and slapped Shu Xiaoman across the face.

Shu Xiaoman had felt guilty before, but after being slapped by Chen Wanxin, she felt irritated. After a moment of thought, she lifted up her hand and slapped Chen Wanxin across the face too. Chen Wanxin was stunned and stood in a daze.

Upon seeing that, Shu Xiaoman pointed a finger at Zhao Yuan and shouted, “You really need to discipline your girl!” She stomped her feet and ran back to her dorm.

Zhao Yuan touched his nose and felt somewhat awkward, as everyone knew that he had broken up with Chen Wanxin. Shu Xiaoman was pretty smart. By mentioning this thing again, she successfully shifted everyone’s attention to Chen Wanxin and Zhao Yuan. In this way, she quickly got herself out of this awkward situation. Chen Wanxin looked embarrassed, and her pretty face flushed red with anger. Zhao Yuan slowly walked toward her and handed her a facial tissue while saying in a soft voice, “Everything will be alright.”

Upon hearing that, Chen Wanxin fixed her gaze on Zhao Yuan, and tears quickly welled up in her eyes. Zhao Yuan started to take pity on her as he thought, “She has never cried like this. And she has single eyelids too.” He could not help but get close to her and wipe tears off her face. He gently patted her head and then turned around, prepared to take his departure.

Upon seeing that, Zhang An’an kicked Wang Xiang, who still stood aside in a daze, and quickly left the place. Wang Xiang felt confused and grumbled. “Why is it me every time?”

“Don’t go,” Chen Wanxin said to Zhao Yuan.

Nevertheless, Zhao Yuan still walked away without any hesitation.

When Chen Wanxin went back to her dorm, she had a big fight with Shu Xiaoman. During the fight, they threw each other’s basins, buckets and bedding downstairs. When they got mad, they started to throw away the things that belonged to Zhang An’an and Zhou Nannan. As these two girls were busy collecting their belongings all the time, they did not have time to stop Shu Xiaoman and Chen Wanxin. That night, Wang Xiang took Zhang An’an out for a night, and Zhou Nannan went to sleep in Wang Zhengjuan’s dorm.

Chen Wanxin took a taxi to her home and returned to the dorm on the next evening with a gang of thugs. They forcibly ripped off Shu Xiaoman’s outer clothes and drove her into the cold weather outside the dorm. After that, they smeared all her bedding and clothes with mud. Zhang An’an and Zhou Nannan swiftly grabbed some clothes and rushed out to help Shu Xiaoman.

“If you don’t want to live in this dorm anymore, just go to help her!” Chen Wanxin shouted in a threatening tone.

Zhang An’an glared at her and replied assertively, “Then you’d better live alone! I know that you have a reason to be angry at her, but you’ve really crossed the line!”

Chen Wanxin calmed down a little and said, “So An’an and Nannan, excuse me for being so bold.”

“Who dares to bully Nannan?” Wang Zhengjuan suddenly strutted into the dorm and hugged the trembling Zhou Nannan with one arm. After that, she grabbed the right wrist of Chen Wanxin with the other hand and brought it down behind her back in a wristlock. Chen Wanxin gritted her teeth and exchanged a look with the hired thugs. They quickly came over to surround Wang Zhengjuan.

Wang Zhengjuan sent Zhou Nannan to Zhang An’an and gripped Chen Wanxin’s wrist harder while whispering beside her ear, “Chen Wanxin, you act really wantonly. You must believe that you’ll be alright no matter what you do since your father is a high-ranking official.”

“What’re you talking about?” Chen Wanxin was surprised and wondered, “No one in Jifu University knows anything about my family. Why does this Wang Zhengjuan know my father? She’s a rich girl indeed, but...”

Wang Zhengjuan continued to whisper, “Do you want me to post something on the forum to tell everyone what you did? I think your father won’t want to see such a thing. Back in your high school, when you beat someone up, he forced you to write an apology letter to that person. It’s humiliating, isn’t it?”

“You guys—withdraw!” Chen Wanxin said with a somber face.

“My clothes!” Shu Xiaoman shouted while crying.

“Wang Zhengjuan, I’ve shown you respect today. You’d better not go too far,” Chen Wanxin said coldly.

Wang Zhengjuan smiled slightly at Chen Wanxin and then asked Zhou Nannan to leave with her. Zhou Nannan refused, as she decided to take care of Shu Xiaoman together with Zhang An’an.

The three girls shuddered with cold outside their dormitory building. They failed to contact their university counselor and did not want to call the police. In the end, they followed Zhang An’an’s advice and went to ask the guys in Dorm No. 216 for help.

Upon seeing the three pretty girls walking into their dormitory building, the boys were surprised. A moment later, they saw the girls stand at the door of Dorm No.216.

At that time, Zheng Kai was doing push-ups inside the dorm while wearing only short underpants. As he did push-ups with Gu Xi and Wang Xiang sitting on his back, his face and ears all turned red, and blue veins stood out on his arms. Gu Xi gently pinched Zheng Kai’s muscles while counting, “27, 28...” Lin Wenxi was reading a book while lying in his bed, and Zhao Yuan sat with a radio in hand, listening to a news broadcast.

The moment Zheng Kai saw the girls, he abruptly jumped up while reaching out a hand to hold Gu Xi in case that he lost balance. After that, Zheng Kai hurriedly rushed into the bathroom, and Gu Xi immediately picked up the clothes placed on the stool and gave them to Zheng Kai.

Wang Xiang fell on his butts, his face twisted because of the pain. He grumpily shouted toward the bathroom, “Why can’t you do push-ups with your third leg when you see girls?”

“Can you do push-ups with your third leg upon seeing me?” Zhang An’an shouted at Wang Xiang. She thought disappointedly, “Why does Wang Xiang always act like this? He’s handsome, with chiselled good looks, but he’s just not masculine enough. It’s easer to find masculinity in Lin Wenxi than in him, not to mention Zhao Yuan and Zheng Kai.”

Upon hearing that, Wang Xiang hurriedly got up. He lifted his chest and tightened his abdomen, looking wonderfully handsome again. He said meaningfully, “I promise that you won’t be able to get out of bed in the morning!”

Shu Xiaoman told Zhao Yuan what had happened while occasionally glancing at Lin Wenxi.

Upon seeing that, Wang Xiang grinned and teased, “Do you come here to find Zhao Yuan or Wenxi?” At this moment, Zheng Kai got fully dressed and stepped out of the bathroom. He covered Wang Xiang’s mouth with a hand which was soaked in cold water, while saying, “I’ll feed you some urine if you keep talking like that!” Wang Xiang felt nauseous and threatened to get back at Gu Xi. Gu Xi dodged him nimbly and fled.

Zhao Yuan thought that it was better for the girls to ask the office of safety and security for help, so he said,.”I am afraid that I can’t....”

To his surprise, Lin Wenxi interjected, “I will go to help you out.”

Shu Xiaoman was pleased upon hearing that, but she felt somewhat worried at the same time. She asked, “You? Aren’t you worried that you’ll irritate her even more?”

“Just rest assured,” Lin Wenxi said while putting on his coat. He went out with the girls.

After talking with Chen Wanxin for less than one minute, he managed to totally change her attitude toward Shu Xiaoman. Chen Wanxin returned all the things to Shu Xiaoman and then cordially held her hand while saying, “It’s only a misunderstanding. Let’s forget about it, Xiaoman.”

Later, Shu Xiaoman could not help but call Lin Wenxi. She asked him, “What did you say to Chen Wanxin?”

“I said that I really hate it when others make jokes about my relationship with Zhao Yuan, as I really don’t have any special feeling for him and just treat him as an interesting friend. I told her that on the first day of university, Zhao Yuan told us that she was the most beautiful girl he’d ever seen although she looked somewhat arrogant and refused to give him her number. I also said that it was Zheng Kai who urged Zhao Yuan to bet against him.” Lin Wenxi kept rambling as a way of forcing himself to forget about watching Zhao Yuan wipe tears for Chen Wanxin this morning. When he thought he finally erased it from his mind, he stopped talking and hung up on Shu Xiaoman, without giving her anytime to respond.

Shu Xiaoman thought dejectedly, “Maybe I really know nothing about him.”

“Miss Chen, why do you ask us to stop? The thread has caught quite a lot of attention. It’s going to go viral!” asked Luo Yang, confusedly.

“Well, I just want to avoid trouble whenever possible. That’s it. By the way, investigate the background of Wang Zhengjuan for me!” While saying this, Chen Wanxin looked up at the sixth floor of the girls’ dormitory building. Suddenly, she saw someone, who looked similar to Wang Zhengjuan, stick her head out and look down. She hurriedly walked aside to hide herself under the shadow of a tree.

“What do you want to do with Instructor Zhang?” asked Luo Yang.

“I’m not interested in that thing at all. Boss Mo can do whatever he wants.” Chen Wanxin said coldly, while wrapping herself in a mink sweater. “Oh, what about Uncle Zhao’s medicine? Has he received it?”

“Just rest assured, Miss Chen. Boss Mo found a good doctor for him,” Luo Yang said in a deep voice.

“Good job,” Chen Wanxin said and then hung up the phone.

She stood under the tree and looked up at the bright moon while thinking, “It’s windy tonight. It’ll be a nice day tomorrow.”
