Ling Jue rolled her eyes at him, raised her fist, and threatened, "If you mention your uncle again, I'll knock your front teeth out."
Lu Yilie covered his mouth in fear. He glanced at Ling Jue in fear and curled his lips in grievance.
When they returned to the field, the ones who bought the water had already returned.
They were still training, so they had no idea what had happened.
Lu Yilie and Qi Ye were the only ones who went to look for them.
Mu Chen looked at the three of them as they returned, deep in thought. From their looks, nothing had happened, but his instincts told him that things were not that simple.
Everyone began their training. Ling Jue sat in the shade of the stone block and looked at them. Qi Ye sat across from them. The people on the field did not care about the official candidate anymore. They were training together.
They did not have any objections to Ling Jue's rest. After all, they had witnessed her abilities. Everyone was now in awe of Ling Jue.
Suddenly, someone shouted from outside the field, "Ling Jue, the dean wants you to go to the dean's office."
Ling Jue was resting on her chair when she suddenly heard someone speak. She stood up.
Lu Yilie put down the basketball and ran over. "I'll go with you..."
Ling Jue waved her hand to interrupt him. She turned her head and smiled. "No need. I'll go alone."
Lu Yilie frowned. He wanted to follow, but he was afraid that he would get angry. "If they bully you..."
Ling Jue patted his shoulder. "Do you think I'll let them bully me?"
Lu Yilie was still worried. The old men in the guidance office were especially annoying.
Even his father would complain sometimes. Those people were like sparrows, talking about various things almost every day.
Many of his classmates could not stand their nagging, so they listened obediently.
When he came back to his senses, Ling Jue was already far away.
Lu Yilie sighed and glanced at Qi Ye. He wanted him to think of something, but he found that Qi Ye was sleeping soundly on a rock.
"..."
...
Ling Jue walked to the guidance office. A group of people stood in a row in the corridor. Mu Aonan's face was bandaged, like a mummy's head.
Seeing Ling Jue come over, the group of people glared at her indignantly.
They watched as she swaggered into the teaching center.
Wang Xiang glared at Ling Jue's back angrily and turned to look at Mu Aonan. "Brother Nan, should we identify Ling Jue? We can't have been beaten for nothing, right?"
"Do you think the teacher will believe it?" Mu Aonan clenched his fists. Although his words leaked, Wang Xiang and the others still understood what he said.
Mu Aonan endured the pain in his mouth and continued, "Ling Jue is shorter than us, and he's so skinny and small. His PE score is so low that he can fall down with a gust of wind. Do you think they will believe he can fight ten people at once?"
Everyone kept quiet. That's right!
Ling Jue's harmless face and his pitiful body made it impossible for him to fight ten people at once.
Wang Xiang was still unwilling to give up. "Then we'll be beaten up for nothing?"
"How can we be beaten up for nothing? We must take revenge!" Mu Aonan's face was twisted as he instructed the crowd. "But not now. When the teacher asks, just say that we fought in a group battle and that it was just a casual game. It has nothing to do with Ling Jue. Otherwise, if we're charged with the crime of quibbling, we might be expelled from school."
Everyone nodded. "Yes!"
...
Ling Jue did not know what was being discussed outside. She walked into the teaching office and saw that there were already many people sitting inside. They were the parents of the students who had been beaten up.
The dean saw her and poked his glasses on his nose. "Ling Jue, ask your parents to come over."
