Chapter 7

Before long, Gu Ning had finished their order. While Isaiah ordered his separately. He ordered quite a bit so he would join them in a bit.

After getting his food he went to an empty table and lifted his mask before eating. As he had ordered a lot he decided to eat separately from little Ning and Mexi.

Just when he was about to get up and pay for his food a loud bang caught his attention.

Gu Ning opened her mouth, "Chen Ziyao, I don't think I have ever hurt you. Why couldn't you stop doing this to me? Do you really think I'll let you get away with it when you've humiliated my mother before my face?"

Isaiah Seeing it was little Ning who was fighting was about to stop it but when he heard the reason why he stopped. The one thing Isaiah hates the most is when people make fun of the ones you care about. People could, curse, talk behind his back and spread rumours about him and he wouldn't care. But bringing family into the conversation was his reverse scale.

???" What? Gu Ning hit Chen Ziyao? That's ridiculous."

A boy named Zhang Yiming, who was with Qin Zheng, suddenly said out loud. He couldn't believe it was the fact.

Xiaoxial" You have to pay for what you've done. You either knock your head on the ground for 10 times or let Ziyao hit you back on the face for 10 times," Gu Xiaoxiao said with pure unkindness.

???" Oh, Gu Ning, it's you again. How come everyone wants to cause you trouble? You're pathetic."

Before Gu Ning could say a word, a female voice sounded first in an ironic way, but without any unkindness.

Gu Ning knew who this girl was when she heard her voice. It must be Chu Peihan!

Indeed, it was Chu Peihan.

Chu Peihan walked over with her hands in her pockets, like a hoodlum.

Chu Peihan was a widely-known bad girl in their school. She was skilful at fighting, so no one dared to annoy her.

Even Gu Xiaoxiao and Chen Ziyao were willing to stay away from Chu Peihan.

Isaiah" Hehe, it always fun when little Ning is around." A voice sounded off in the crowd. Walking past the crowd Isaiah came out and stood by gu Ning's side.

Qin Zheng was confused about the relationship between Chu Peihan and Gu Ning. They didn't seem like friends, because Chu Peihan always talked to Gu Ning in an unfriendly way.

However, she stood up for Gu Ning.

He was even more confused by this new guy, Besides Gu ning. What kind of relationship did they have?

Gu Ning" I know. They're all jealous of my beauty," Gu Ning joked like her beauty was really a burden to her.

Zhang Yiming immediately laughed out loud.

He looked at Gu Ning with disdain, " Gu Ning, how dare you to say that? I don't see your beauty at all, but your poverty is quite obvious."

"Exactly, nobody will be jealous of you! You poor girl!"

Gu Ning wasn't mad at all, "Then why won't you leave me alone? I don't think I've ever hurt them. If they're not being jealous of my beauty, then what?"

Isaiah" Perhaps There gay." That remark got a few giggles from the crowd.

Gu Ning added. "And, Chen Ziyao just said I'm bullied because of my poverty. Actually, I don't understand why my poverty somehow becomes the reason that she should bully me."

Student 1" Exactly, what's wrong with being poor? They're bullies!"

student 2" No one would stand still and wait to be hit. Idiot!"

student 3" She has even humiliated the girl's family. She's such a bad person!"

The crowd of onlookers started to blame Chen Ziyao.

"You…" Chen Ziyao was so irritated that she didn't know how to argue back.

Gu ning" Gu Xiaoxiao and Chen Ziyao, I advise you both to stay away from me from now on, or you'll regret for sure." Gu Ning warned them with a cold look.

Gu Ning actually didn't care about whether Gu Xiaoxiao and Chen Ziyao would listen to her. She had made her mind to stand up for herself against them.

Right at that moment, Qin Zheng interrupted, "Enough!"

Gu Xiaoxiao was his girlfriend, and he ought to protect her.

Isaiah" Looks like her knight and shining armour has arrived." He whispered to mexi who giggled.

"But, Gu Ning hit Ziyao…" Gu Xiaoxiao wasn't willing to give up.

Before Qin Zheng could reply, Gu Ning said first, "She deserves it. If she does it again in the future, a slap won't be enough."

Then Gu Ning gave Chen Ziyao a cold look. The latter trembled out of fear. Now Chen Ziyao was really scared of Gu Ning.

"Gu Ning, let's wait and see." Though Chen Ziyao felt frightened, she didn't want to escape like that. She pretended to be calm and left with Gu Xiaoxiao.

Or, escaped away.

Qin Zheng and his friends took a look at Gu Ning, then were gone too.

The rest of the students dispersed afterwards.

After the meal, it was still too early for the afternoon classes.

Most seniors went back to their classrooms because they were under great academic pressure.

However, it wasn't necessary for Gu Ning to spend her leisure time on studying, so she had no plan to go back.

Gu Ning" Do you want to go back to the classroom reading, or hang out with me?" Gu Ning asked.

Peihan" No, I'm not going to study. I would rather fool around if I'm free." Chu Peihan disliked studying apparently.

Nexi" I'll go with you too!"

Though Yu Mixi studied hard, she needed to relax as well.

Yu Mixi was one of the top 10 excellent students in her class. She was hopeful to get into a great university if she could do well in the entrance exam.

Yu Mixi knew when to unwind, and when to study hard.

Gu Ning looked at Isaiah to see if he was coming as well.

Isaiah" I'd like to hang out but I have to go home and feed Fen, otherwise heel get cranky. maybe next time."
