Looking for Trouble

“What? Is she the ignorant and incompetent Second Miss from the Ruan Family?”

“Impossible… She looks so pretty and is so unlike the Second Miss Ruan from the rumors.”

“Tsk, you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover. I heard there’s something wrong with her brain and that she’s really vulgar… You guys could tell from the way she spoke just now.”

“Exactly. She’s caused an upheaval of chaos and indignation in the Ruan Family. She was the one who caused Madam Ruan’s miscarriage, the death of her own elder sister, and even stole her younger sister’s man out of sheer jealously… She’s absolutely repulsive.”

“So, you’ve heard those rumors as well… Yuck, how could we let someone as detestable as her be in the same class as us…”

An endless stream of discussions spread unhindered in the classroom.

None of them were concerned whether Ruan Mengmeng might hear them, nor were any of them the slightest bit worried about angering Li Xiuli.

This was because everyone knew that Li Xiuli’s favorite student was Ruan Shishi.

Out of everyone, she would be the one who was most likely to detest her the most.

“Ruan Mengmeng, let me warn you! This is WPA, not City No. 1 High School! You’d best not carry your degrading habits into this school!”

That was the first time the tolerant and patient Li Xiuli had relentlessly scolded a student in front of her students.

A new student in a foreign environment who was immediately ostracized by all their classmates and shunned by their class teacher. If someone else was in Ruan Mengmeng’s place, they would have been so overwhelmed that they would not know what to do.

However, it so happened that Ruan Mengmeng was not like any other person.

Instead of displaying diffidence and unease, she lifted her chin and stared straight into Li Xiuli’s eyes that were filled with hatred.

“Ms. Li, I admit, I apologize for swearing just now. But the way I reacted was not without reason. It’s because I’d just learned that even though I had not yet attended WPA, it seems that students of WPA have been fed false rumors about me. Anyone who was met with such slander would’ve acted exactly how I did.”

If it was something else, she would not give a damn, nor would she try to explain herself.

However, the issue concerned Ruan Jiaojiao’s slander toward her as well as a fabricated story about her elder sister; for those matters she would never take lightly.

“A straight foot has no fear of a crooked shoe. If you’ve never done anything wrong, you wouldn’t be so worried about the rumors. Moreover, there wouldn’t be waves if there wasn’t any wind…”

Li Xiuli had enormous prejudice against Ruan Mengmeng because of Ruan Shishi’s death. Therefore, she did not believe a single word that came out of her mouth.

“I…”

Ruan Mengmeng was about to retort when two guys and a girl walked into the classroom.

The three of them wore uniforms and all of them fashioned an armband.

“It’s the student council. The three of them are all Ruan Jiaojiao’s lackeys,” Mu Jingxing whispered to Ruan Mengmeng when he saw them coming in.

The three students who stood at the classroom entrance were in Senior (1) and were highly important figures within the student council.

“Mengmeng, the leader is called Ye Feng. He’s my Big Cousin Bro. He’s always had a thing for Ruan Jiaojiao so I’m sure his appearance here means trouble. You have to be careful…”

Out of a sudden, a voice came from the back.

Ruan Mengmeng frowned slightly and turned back to look. She found Ye Hanting sitting right behind her.

At that moment, his deskmate, Li Yifan, gazed at her with worry-filled eyes.

Unlike others, Mu Jingxing’s two friends did not discriminate her just because she was the fabled ‘Ruan Mengmeng’.

“Thanks for telling me,” Ruan Mengmeng nodded toward them and gave them a soft smile before she turned her head back.

Without her knowledge, the two guys simultaneously turned red after she turned her head back to the front.

Li Xiuli had already stepped outside of the classroom and could be seen discussing with the student council members in a hushed tone.

She talked while looking at Ruan Mengmeng from outside the classroom. In the beginning, her expressions were cold as it gradually grew sterner by the moment.

“Ruan Mengmeng, get out here right this instance!” After some time, Li Xiuli suddenly yelled at Ruan Mengmeng in a bid to summon her.

Even so, Ruan Mengmeng did nothing wrong. On the other hand, the three people that stood behind Li Xiuli had their lips perked up in a scheming, smug fashion.
