In the end, it was because they heard Teacher Yao's high heels clacking in their direction that Ruo Tingran and her group scattered like flies. Li Qing's body trembled as it hurt all over. She didn't know where she got the strength to get up and run before Yao Xiurong caught sight of her. She didn't even know how she got home. The rest of the day passed by like a blur.
Ever since that day, they stopped bullying her. Presumably because Ruo Tingran was spooked due to being seen by Zhang Jiancheng. Well, Li Qing couldn't care less.
It was during the darkest days of her life that she got to know someone named Nan Xukun, the only son of Nan Cheng, CEO of Henan Corporation. She heard many, many things about him such as how he was proclaimed missing until the age of nine and by the time his father found him, he was so emaciated that he looked malnourished. Rumors floated around the circle, speculating what kind of hell Nan Xukun had gone through during those nine years.
