Feigned Pity - CH 16.2

Femme beauty.

She obviously looked delicate, like a slight pinch would shatter her. But with each following attack, it was more and more brutal, she was extremely terrifying…

Just now, they were still thinking of how they would deal with this stinky bitch. But now, they have lost all their courage.

“This, this time around, we’ll let you off!”

Tao Yi Xi tilted her head and grinned, “That might not be possible.”

The group on the opposite side slowly felt that things would not end so simply.

“Hey! What are you all doing here?”

The authoritative voice stopped them. The dean with deep creases on his forehead hurried over. He was quickly followed by two other people. One was their form teacher, whose hair was in disarray from running over, and the other was Qi Yue. The form teacher could be seen telling Qi Yue to keep his cool and not to be impulsive.

Tao Yi Xi bravely stepped forward, biting her lower lip, trembling slightly, “Sir, it’s not Jing Yuan’s fault. He kindly offered to send me to the hospital, but we were blocked by these scary students on our way there.”

The five from the vocational high school: ??? Who was the scary one here!?

She peered gratefully at Gu Jing Yuan, her eyes filled with distress making his goosebumps pop out.

“Fortunately, Jing Yuan Ge-ge was here. He was injured while trying to protect me. I’m so sorry, Ge-ge. It’s all my fault that you got implicated…” Her words came out choked, making people feel even more distressed for her.

“Dean, this is Tao Yi Xi,” the form teacher pointed out.

The dean had also heard of this transfer student who has excellent grades and was a potential student candidate for Qing Bei. Usually, she must have spent her time studying diligently, so how was she connected to these bad students?

The halo of academic excellence in addition to the demure look of a frail girl was simply a combination that teachers could not help but trust infinitely.

Facing the frightened but outstanding student, the dean’s tone was significantly much softer.

“I didn’t expect Gu Jing Yuan to do a good deed.”

He turned back to Gu Jing Yuan with a solemn expression, “Gu Jing Yuan, it’s still not right to get into a fight. But based on the fact that you did it in order to defend a classmate, I’ll let you off with a warning this time.”

Gu Jing Yuan, who did a ‘good deed’, found himself being let off so easily for the first time after being caught in a brawl.

He stared at Tao Yi Xi, who looked so innocent and harmless, dumbfounded.

“Teacher, my stomach is still in discomfort, can I go first?”

“Yes yes, do you want me to drive you to the hospital?”

“There’s no need to inconvenience Teacher, Jing Yuan Ge-ge can bring me there. Right, Ge-ge?” Her big watery eyes stared at him, making him unable to refuse her.

“I’ll send her.”

The form teacher knew of their relationship, so he did not question them, “Then be on your way and take care.”

Not too far away, the dean glared sharply at the group of disheveled teenagers on the ground, “Which school do you all belong to? I must personally have a good chat with your teachers. To dare to bully students from my school, you must be really bold!”

After walking a distance away, they could still hear the dean rebuking the group. His reputation was not for show, that group was in for suffering.

Qi Yue followed after them, laughing excitedly, “Brother Yuan, you’re so awesome! You gave them such a whopping that they couldn’t even stand back up. And that stupid fatso was still twitching on the ground. It’s too hilarious!”

Gu Jing Yuan could not smile, glancing at the culprit, “It wasn’t me.”

“Huh?” Qi Yue patted him on his back, “Brother Yuan, why are you trying to be modest? With how close we are, do you still need to pretend in front of me? If it’s not you, then who? Sister Yi Xi?”

It was impossible to imagine, just look at her frail and tiny arms and legs.

Gu Jing Yuan glanced at him speechlessly but was unable to find words to refute.

Tao Yi Xi carried her schoolbag, looking like her obedient and calm self.

If he had not witnessed it with his own eyes, he would not have believed it if someone told him that this girl had so much explosive power. She even carried a stun gun with her!

Gu Jing Yuan asked him, “How did you know to come here?”

“It was Sister Yi Xi who sent me a text message asking me to come over. She even asked me to bring the form teacher along. Damn, it nearly scared me to death. This is the first time I called for the teacher when going into a fight.”

Gu Jing Yuan did not understand her train of thought. In normal circumstances, wouldn’t students wish for the teachers to never find out that they fraternize with a group of gangsters?

Tao Yi Xi righteously explained, “We weren’t in the wrong. As the correct party, we needed someone to give us justice and prove our innocence. But of course, the most important thing is that I’m deemed as a good student.”

She knew the ins and outs of the benefits she could reap from being a good student.

See? They did not need to lift a finger before this matter was settled. On top of that, they were even protected by the teachers.

Qi Yue could not help but applaud, “Amazing! Sister Yi Xi, you’re so smart! No wonder that group of people just now stared at you strangely.”

She smiled innocently, “Really? Maybe they didn’t expect the presence of a teacher.”

“That’s right!”

Gu Jing Yuan did not want to continue looking at this ignorant person.

They parted at the intersection and the two got into the car that was taking them home. Back in the same position, he sat behind the driver while she was in the front passenger seat.

This time, he did not take out his phone to play. Instead, he stared as she held her bag, looking at her gentle and beautiful side profile as he fell into deep contemplation.

Not long after he settled down, a knock came from his door.

When he opened the door, Tao Yi Xi stood outside, holding the first aid kit box.

“Ge-ge, you need to apply some medication.”

“No need.”

“You have to. After all, your injuries were because of me. If I don’t do something about it, my conscience will not let me rest.”

She stared stubbornly at him, unwilling to give in.

After pondering about it, Gu Jing Yuan let her into his room for the first time.

His room was spacious and simple, without the presence of scattered clothes and smelly socks.

On his study desk, there were two computers with several kinds of keyboards and there were also various brands of drinks. Beside his desk was a display cabinet filled with collectible figurines of the games he played.

He sat on the sofa, motioning with his head for her to take a seat. Coincidentally, he had questions for her.

Tao Yi Xi sat directly beside him, turning her head to look at him expectantly.

Gu Jing Yuan stiffened as he had never been in such close proximity with another girl before. But seeing her natural expression, he forced himself not to make a fuss out of nothing by maintaining a calm facade.

She observed that this time around, his face was unharmed. Hence, Nanny Yang did not realize that he got into another fight again.

Those punches all landed beneath his clothes, only with close observation would one be able to spot the slight bruising under his collar.

Tao Yi Xi nonchalantly stretched out her hand in an attempt to unbutton his shirt, giving Gu Jing Yuan a fright.

“What are you doing?!” he asked nervously as he tightened his grip on his collar.

“Ge-ge, how can I help you apply medication if you don’t remove your clothes?”

“How can you, a girl, remove boys’ clothes so casually!?”

She let go, “Then you remove it and I’ll help you apply.”

She took out Yunnan Baiyao1 from the medicine box.

Seeing that he remained frozen, she patiently explained, “Don’t worry, this came from the family’s first-aid kit box.”

Gu Jing Yuan was momentarily stunned. Did this mean that she found out about the medication being thrown away the previous time?

Although he was not the one who threw it away, he was still ill at ease, “I can’t use that medication.”

She smiled slightly, “en, I understand.”

He wondered. So did it mean that he was forgiven? No, wait. Why did he even need her forgiveness in the first place?

Gu Jing Yuan’s mind was in a mess. And currently, she was eying his body covetously, making him feel weird all over.

“Ge-ge, hurry up and take it off.”

“…”

This made it feel even weirder.

LOL dear Gu Jing Yuan is so inocent
