At least that’s the feeling Li Yaoyao and Li Que, who were coming from behind, as well as Duan Xi, who was approaching from another direction, all had when they saw the scene.
Li Que, being a bit faster than Li Yaoyao and a sprinter by nature, practically sprinted over upon seeing this scene and yelled furiously, "What are you doing!"
As she said this, she was about to pull Jiaojiao away, but before she could touch her shoulder, she saw Jiaojiao being pulled into another person’s embrace.
Following along that person’s chest up, she t Duan Xi’s cold, handso face exhaling iciness, which made her shiver. She withdrew her hand that was about to pull Jiaojiao away and instead pointed at Zheng Jiaojiao’s nose, "What are you doing, are you trying to bully people again? I don’t care if you’re a woman, I won’t hesitate to hit you!"
As she said this, her fist was almost about to land on Zheng Jiaojiao’s face.
"She bullied you?" Duan Xi shielded Jiaojiao in front of him and asked, seeing no one else, only her.
Jiaojiao lifted her head. Her originally aggressive attitude, upon seeing Duan Xi, was like a puffed-up balloon that suddenly had a hole poked in it. She herself didn’t even know why the second before she had been overwhelmingly angry, but seeing him, she felt an overwhelming sense of grievance, as if she would burst into tears, her nose turning sour.
She felt her reaction was utterly inexplicable, and she blinked hard to hold back the urge to cry caused by the grievance, and said softly, "She made insinuations about my brother, I’m afraid it’ll have a bad impact on him."
Duan Xi nodded, rubbed her little head, and looked at Zheng Jiaojiao, who was already staring at him dumbfounded from across.
Zheng Jiaojiao had actually heard before that in their freshman year, there was a boy more handso than Jiang Xun, reputedly with green eyes. But she had only seen blue-eyed foreigners, never green, and couldn’t imagine how such eyes could be particularly attractive, so she had never cared.
But she hadn’t expected that a boy with green eyes could be so handso, so much so that he made Jiang Xun seem like dust in comparison.
She couldn’t help but stare at him, entranced.
It wasn’t until she felt Duan Xi’s cold, intensely hostile gaze sweep over that she woke as if from a dream, feeling as though she was being watched by a predator, like she was about to be torn apart.
However, the next second, seeing Jiaojiao being held preciously in his arms, her fear instantly transford into jealousy.
She couldn’t understand it.
What did this Ruan Jiaojiao have that compelled one after another — Jiang Xun was like this, and so was this boy in front of her — not only did they both know her, but they also treated her so well!
And their instructor was actually her own brother!
Zheng Jiaojiao had previously greatly disliked Ruan Jiaojiao, partly because her na was similar, which felt offensive to her, and partly because of Jiang Xun’s special treatnt towards her. On their first day of school, she had already set her sights on Jiang Xun, purposely trying to strike up conversation, not minding even if it was like a warm face eting a cold one. But these people all treated her with indifference while cherishing Ruan Jiaojiao like a treasure, why?
Before, she could only say she didn’t like her, but now she truly loathed her.
Thinking of her uncle being a ntor at this university, in charge of doctoral students and respected by the school leadership, she instantly felt there was nothing to fear, straightening her neck ready to speak, when she saw a lined-up two-column march of instructors walking over from the other side.
