273 Someone Got Beaten
The next day, Jiang Xue’s first question to ask Shen Xi when she arrived at school was, ” Have you submitted your painting?”
Shen Xi didn’t know why Jiang Xue would ask this out of the blue. Was she afraid that she would give up on the competition?
Shen Xi replied strongly, “Not yet, but don’t worry. I’m not someone who runs away halfway. After all, it’s too easy to beat you.”
Jiang Xue looked at Shen Xi’s confident expression and smiled even more brightly. “Shen Xi, it’s not a good habit to be stubborn. Just wait for your self-reflection on the podium!”
Shen Xi raised her eyebrows and smiled provocatively. “Then we’ll wait and see.”
Jiang Xue thought to herself hatefully that she would just tolerate Shen Xi for a bit longer. Once she handed in her painting, she would have something against her. If she didn’t listen to her, she would let her have a taste of the revenge from the top class!
Jiang Xue ignored Shen Xi’s provocation and turned around. However, she accidentally tripped over Zhao Yuan and Su Ni, who were talking behind her, and fell to the ground.
Jiang Xue screamed. Liu Cheng’s eyes widened in shock and she quickly went forward to help her.
She didn’t forget that the child in Jiang Xue’s womb belonged to the Xiang Family. It was her golden opportunity to go higher.
Unfortunately, Liu Cheng was too far away to catch Jiang Xue.
Just as Jiang Xue was in despair, Li Jin immediately took a big step to the right and pulled Jiang Xue onto her.
Li Jin, who was under Jiang Xue, grimaced in pain.
When Jiang Xue realized that she didn’t fall to the ground and her child was still alive, she was so excited that she almost cried.
If Jiang Xue had fallen just now and something had happened to her child, she would regret it for the rest of her life.
Liu Cheng quickly helped Jiang Xue up and pushed Zhao Yuan and Su Ni away. She shouted, “Are you two blind? Can’t you see such a big person? If anything happened to Jiang Xue just now, your families will have to face the Xiang Family’s revenge!”
Jiang Xue swallowed her saliva in fear and looked at Su Ni and Zhao Yuan. She walked towards them fiercely and raised her hand to slap Zhao Yuan.
The sharp-eyed Shen Xi grabbed Jiang Xue and warned her rudely, “Jiang Xue, don’t you dare!”
Jiang Xue looked at Shen Xi sharply and was extremely angry. However, when she thought about how Shen Xi had something on her and that she had yet to get her goods, she retracted her hand from Shen Xi’s.
Then, Jiang Xue’s hand suddenly changed direction and slapped Su Ni.
The slap was so loud that Su Ni’s face was swollen. There were red finger marks on her face, and there were even traces of blood.
The whole class was shocked. No one had expected Jiang Xue to do that.
“Su Ni, this is a lesson for you. If you do this again in the future, it won’t just be a slap.” Although Jiang Xue was talking about Su Ni, she was glaring at Zhao Yuan and Shen Xi fiercely.
Su Ni clutched her face and stared at the ground with wide open eyes. Her tears fell from her eyes.
Some of Su Ni’s close friends tried to comfort her, but Jiang Xue glared at them fiercely.
Jiang Xue looked around and said in a threatening tone, “Whoever dares to stand next to Su Ni will be the next one to be beaten up!”
The whole class was silent. Everyone knew that Jiang Xue was relying on the Xiang Family’s power and that she was carrying the child of the family. Naturally, no one dared to disobey her.
Jiang Xue sneered and placed her sharp nails on Su Ni’s chin. She lifted Su Ni’s head and asked with a smile, “Does it hurt? I’m such a gentle person. How could I hurt someone?”
Su Ni held back her tears and replied, “It doesn’t hurt!”
Jiang Xue chuckled. “It doesn’t hurt? Then why are you crying? I’m teaching you the ways of the world. You should be grateful. Understand?”
Su Ni concealed the cold glint in her eyes and nodded silently.
Jiang Xue flung Su Ni’s face away in disgust and returned to her seat.
Jiang Xue was even more proud when she saw the fearful expressions on her classmates’ faces.
Zhao Yuan clenched her fists tightly. How she wished to tear Jiang Xue’s annoying face into pieces!
Guan Lei could feel the heavy atmosphere in the class the moment he stepped in. He sat down in his seat with a puzzled look on his face. When he saw the finger marks on Su Ni’s face, he frowned.
Something must have happened just now. Guan Lei immediately ran to Shen Xi’s side, grabbed her, and checked her up and down. He only relaxed when he saw that Shen Xi was fine.
He didn’t care how others fought, but he won’t let anyone hurt Shen Xi.
