Nian Ueno

[Excuse me, but I've been watching you for a while now. Do you have a boyfriend? If not, could I have his contact information? I'm the guy in the blue hoodie sitting diagonally across from you. I'm really sorry if this bothers you.]

Jiang Weixi looked up and saw a boy wearing a blue hoodie with slightly parted hoods. He had fair skin, big eyes, and a handsome appearance.

The boy noticed her gaze, looked up at her, met her shimmering eyes, and looked away in a panic, a blush spreading from his ears to his neck.

He appears to be a somewhat shy and reserved young male college student.

The boy lowered his head and secretly lifted his eyelids to glance at her.

Jiang Weixi smiled faintly.

The boy was stunned.

The dull and boring library was instantly brightened up.

The boy gripped his pen tightly, feeling nervous, his heart fluttering at the beautiful girl's smile.

She smiled. Does that mean she's also interested in him?

Then... he received the note she threw at him, and opened it with great excitement.

There is only one short line of text above:

Sorry, I'm not into dating.

The boy felt embarrassed and restless when he was rejected after finally mustering the courage to ask for her contact information for the first time. He packed his things and got up to leave.

Jiang Weixi put on her headphones and continued studying, trying to ignore any external distractions.

She is extremely focused when she is studying, and often ignores what is happening around her.

So much so that... she didn't even notice when someone walked up to her aggressively.

A glass of water was poured over his head.

My hair, headphones, and books were all soaked.

Jiang Weixi was stunned. When she looked up, Xu Manzhen was standing in front of her with an arrogant air, looking down at her.

With anger blazing in her eyes, Xu Manzhen looked up and slapped Jiang Weixi.

"You shameless slut, you're seducing other people's men! You're so shameless!"

Xu Manzhen pointed at her nose and angrily cursed, her sharp voice echoing throughout the library.

Everyone looked up at the same time, secretly watching the drama unfold.

The classmates at the same table as Jiang Weixi were extremely embarrassed. Two of them were hesitating about whether to change seats, while one of them was watching the drama unfold with great interest.

That slap was delivered with full force, and Jiang Weixi's head was knocked to the side.

Looking at Xu Manzhen's arrogant and smug face, she was so angry that her chest heaved.

Jiang Weixi jumped up from her chair, grabbed the juice her classmate next to her was drinking, and splashed it directly onto Xu Manzhen's face.

Xu Manzhen screamed, "Ah—what are you doing? What did you splash on me?"

Xu Manzhen touched her sticky hair and broke down, rushing over to tear Jiang Weixi's hair off.

Jiang Weixi could no longer tolerate it.

Although she didn't want to fight with her in public and ruin her image, she simply couldn't swallow this insult today.

The two were about the same height and weight, with Jiang Weixi being slightly taller than Xu Manzhen. She had been deliberately training her arm muscles recently, making her stronger than Xu Manzhen, and she quickly pinned her to the ground.

She slapped Xu Manzhen's face five times, venting her anger at Xu Manzhen's previous attacks.

Xu Manzhen continued to scream: "Ah—"

The screams terrified the students around them.

The students sitting nearby quickly left, clutching their books, afraid of being affected.

"You bitch, let me go!" Xu Manzhen cried as she pinched Jiang Weixi.

Jiang Weixi didn't cry. With a cold expression, she pressed her down and pinched her back even harder.

The two started fighting.

Xu Manzhen's screams grew louder and louder, regretting that she hadn't brought more people with her, which was why she was being suppressed and beaten by Jiang Weixi like this.

A venomous glint flashed in Xu Manzhen's eyes as she reached out with her hand, adorned with sharp manicured nails, toward Xu's face. Her intention was clear: to scratch Xu's face.

Jiang Weixi straddled Xu Manzhen, pressing her chest with her legs to immobilize her.

When Jiang Weixi saw Xu Manzhen reach out, she quickly grabbed her hand and forcefully twisted it backward, turning Xu Manzhen's hand into a chicken claw shape.

"Ah—" Xu Manzhen's screams grew even louder.

The number of onlookers continued to increase.

The fight ended when the librarian and security guards arrived and separated the two, restoring order to the library.

The two girls glared at each other with resentment, their eyes blazing with fury.

Xu Manzhen yelled, "You dare hit me! I'm calling the police!"

After saying that, she immediately took out her phone and dialed the police.

Jiang Weixi glared at Xu Manzhen, not afraid at all. After all, Xu Manzhen had struck first, and she was just acting in self-defense.

police station.

Xu Manzhen tearfully accused her of her crimes.

Jiang Weixi responded coldly and indifferently.

The police were exasperated and spent an hour mediating between the two, but Xu Manzhen wouldn't budge and insisted that Jiang Weixi be locked up to reflect on her actions.

Xu Manzhen excused herself to go to the restroom and called her older brother.

"Waaaaah, big brother, I got beaten up..." she cried miserably and felt wronged.

"What? Who hit you? Don't cry, tell me slowly."

"She's Ji Xingzhou's ex-girlfriend, she..."

Xu Manzhen downplayed the part where she started the fight, only saying how the other party pinned her to the ground and beat her.

Brother Xu was furious. "That's too arrogant! Don't worry, I'll stand up for you."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Manzhen wiped away her tears, a hint of hatred flashing in her eyes.

My older brother is friends with the police chief. He'll lock Jiang Weixi up for a few days and give her a criminal record...

Xu Manzhen curled her lips into a smile, but accidentally pulled at her facial muscles, causing her to gasp in pain. She rubbed her cheek, her hatred for Jiang Weixi growing even stronger.

Xu Manzhen walked back to the mediation room, her eyes still red, but her demeanor was much more composed.

She glared at Jiang Weixi and mouthed, "You're finished."

A cold sweat broke out on Jiang Weixi's back, and the hairs on her arms suddenly stood on end. She had a vague sense of foreboding.

What did Xu Manzhen go out to do just now? Why did she change so much when she came back?

Xu Manzhen couldn't hide the smugness in her eyes.

Jiang Weixi had to be on guard. She stood up, clutching her stomach, and said, "Excuse me, I also need to go to the restroom."

Xu Manzhen immediately exclaimed, "You're not going to run away, are you?"

Jiang Weixi sneered, "I'm not a criminal, why should I run away? Are you allowed to go to the bathroom, but I'm not?"

Xu Manzhen was speechless.

After Jiang Weixi went outside, she found a corner and immediately called Xiao Zhou.

office.

Xiao Zhou was reporting to Ji Dongxun when his phone rang.

Xiao Zhou glanced at it: "Sir, it's Miss Jiang calling."

Ji Dongxun frowned.

Xiao Zhou added, "Miss Jiang never makes phone calls. I wonder if something urgent has happened this time."

Ji Dongxun nodded: "Take it."

Xiao Zhou answered the phone and even put it on speakerphone: "Hello, Ms. Jiang..."

Jiang Weixi spoke quickly: "I'm at the ××× Police Station. Could you come and pick me up? Please."

"What happened?"

"Fighting and brawling."

Xiao Zhou looked to Ji Dongxun for his opinion, and Ji Dongxun nodded.

Xiao Zhou: "Okay, I'll be right there."

Jiang Weixi: "Thank you, thank you for your trouble."

Xiao Zhou put away his phone and prepared to leave.

Ji Dongxun stood up. "I'll go with you to take a look."

Xiao Zhou was slightly surprised.
