At midnight, a black shadow passed by the rooftop of Su’s villa.

The window sill on the second floor had been silently opened before a metal cage was thrown inside.

The mouse inside the cage was bigger than a cat, and its eyes reflected a red light. After landing on the carpet, it raised its body and sniffed the air before swiftly rushing towards the large bed in the center of the bedroom.

“Ahh…!”

Su Junxin was fast asleep when a sudden panicked scream could be heard in her ears.

She squinted her eyebrows and was just about to open them before a strange smell suddenly passed through the tip of her nose.

Instantly, Su Junxin lost consciousness, and her breathing returned to being slow and peaceful.

A cold and fair hand was then extended from within the darkness; its slightly cool fingertips were pressed onto the young woman’s glabella as it very carefully massaged it to relax the frown she had.

Qin You’s breathing was like a whisper during a storm. Before anyone was able to notice him, he instantly vanished into thin air.

…

The next day, when Su Junxin woke up, she subconsciously raised her hand to touch her forehead and squinted her eyebrows as she wondered.

‘…Strange, why can’t I shake the feeling that something’s amiss?’

However, she stopped overthinking about it very soon and swiftly washed herself up before heading to the kitchen to fry some eggs. Then, she sat by the table as she quietly pondered her situation.

‘My initial capital has dropped all the way from three million yuan to one million yuan. Although one million yuan may seem a lot, it’s literally insignificant towards building a safe zone… I’ve got to come up with an idea of how to increase my inflow in the shortest time possible.’

At that moment, “Tap, tap, tap…” The sound of slippers could be heard from the stairs.

Liu Ya held her cellphone as she furiously growled at the person who was at the other end of the phone call.

“How would I know why there are mice here! Isn’t this something that you people should be responsible for? That’s enough, put your claims manager on the phone now…”

When Liu Ya turned around, her sights were suddenly fixed onto Su Junxin’s back, and even her speech came to an abrupt end.

Su Junxin gulped down the last mouthful of milk and threw the glass into the dishwashing machine.

Then, she picked up her bag and headed out. When she passed by Liu Ya, she casually glanced at her bandaged left arm but did not have any expression on her face.

As usual, Su Junxin jogged three kilometers before she reached her school. However, just as her right foot stepped into the school building’s entrance, a female voice called out to her. 

‘Tsk, here she comes again.’

Su Junxin could not help but roll her eyes as she turned around to look.

The stepsister that she had not officially met yet stood a few steps away from her.

Su Yi was wearing a uniform that was shortened at the hem; her standing posture made her look exactly like a little swan.

Beside her was a tall man who had dyed his hair yellow and was carrying two people’s bags. The man looked like a playboy.

Su Yi had a faint smile on her face as she took half a step forward. The moment she spoke, her voice was so soft that one could probably squeeze some water out of it.

“I’ve got something to ask you, Su Junxin.”

Su Junxin was caught off guard when she was cajoled and could not help but shiver. She opened her mouth and coldly uttered out a word. “Speak.”

When she realized that Su Junxin’s attitude towards her was so much different now, Su Yi subtly frowned and felt a little annoyed on the inside.

She looked at the man beside her and lowered her hands which were folded in front of her chest before turning around to walk towards the deeper parts of the school building.

“Follow me; this place isn’t suitable.”

Thus, the trio entered a half-abandoned equipment room. The man followed behind Su Junxin and stood in front of the door with his arms folded in front of his chest after the women entered. The man had a serious posture that blocked the path completely.

Su Junxin raised her eyes to scan the ceiling before she curled her lips up into a smile of satisfaction. 

‘There aren’t any surveillance cameras here; not bad.’

Su Yi and Liu Ya had the same eyebrows… both of them seemed to have the same fussiness and scornfulness in their gazes too. 

Su Yi sized up Su Junxin and very straightforwardly said, “You deliberately called the City Women’s Federation the other day, didn’t you?”

Su Junxin left off a grunt in acknowledgment and just stood still as she looked at Su Yi.

‘I didn’t expect her to admit to it so easily.’ Su Yi was so close to letting her emotions betray her at that moment. 

“What have you done to mom? Why doesn’t she allow me to go home?”

‘Liu Ya actually hasn’t told her?’ Su Junxin seemed to have other thoughts in her mind as she suddenly curved her lips into a smile.

“Do you really want to know?”

Su Yi was so shocked that she froze when she saw Su Junxin’s smile; a bad omen suddenly welled up within her.

Before she was able to open her mouth, Su Yi merely saw Su Junxin suddenly walking towards her.

“Bam!”

A loud slap fell on Su Yi’s left face, instantly causing her to be startled.

While in disbelief, Su Yi covered her face as she looked at Su Junxin. The girl really seemed to have changed. 

“How dare you slap me?!”

Su Junxin only coldly snickered in response.

“So what if I slapped you? Am I supposed to make an appointment with you beforehand?” Then, Su Junxin raised her hand to slap the girl again, this time on Su Yi’s right face. “What’s the matter? It’s just two slaps! Have you actually lost your voice from it already? There’s a saying that you must learn how to take a hit first before you hit someone. Since you’re planning to bully someone through force, you should also have a taste of your own medicine first, shouldn’t you?”

Su Yi was in utter disbelief as she covered up her face, which had swiftly swelled up while her tears fell onto the ground.

“Su Junxin! You’re crazy!”

The man who had just witnessed the scene was stunned; he put away his cellphone and said, “F*ck” before rushing towards them with reddened eyes.

Su Junxin did not even turn her head as she threw a punch outwards, accurately landing on the man’s lower jaw. A kick quickly followed up the punch.

The man’s movements staggered as he felt choked off a painful grunt. He covered his lower body like a cooked shrimp as he shriveled on the ground. He was in so much pain that his face had been distorted. 

Su Junxin shook her wrist, which had gone numb as she lowered her eyes to look at the man before letting off a scornful laugh. 

“How shameful can you be? Rushing to enter a fight between two women.”

Then, she turned around to look at Su Yi, dragging her tone with unknown intentions. “Now, you should probably know what I did to your mom, don’t you?”

That was actually the very first time Su Yi had been slapped in her life! She was both angry and panicking as her tears continued to flow down her face while she was shivering. 

She gritted her teeth and hissed as she said, “Su Junxin, I’m going to tell the headmaster! You can forget about even coming back to study in this high school!”

When Su Junxin heard that, she did not seem to mind it at all as she tugged her lips into a smile. There was only coldness beneath her eyes.

“Fine. In that case, I might as well bring up the evidence of you cheating during the class allocation examination. Let’s see which one of us gets expelled, shall we?”

Right after she said that, Su Junxin walked over to the man who was still wailing in pain while lying on the ground. Then, she directly opened the equipment room’s door and walked out. 

Su Yi’s face had gone ashen as she breathed heavily and fell to the ground.

“How did she know…? No, this can’t happen. I can’t be expelled…”

…

After dealing with the annoying menace, Su Junxin was finally able to calm her frustrated mood.

The first session for the morning was her English lesson; hence, she took out her study materials and placed them on her desk.

However, the moment she raised her head, she was startled.

Qin You walked behind Jiang Rushi as they walked up the podium; his smiley gaze scanned the crowd.

Whispers began to break out within the classroom.

“Oh my god! Why has the most handsome guy in our school come to our class?”

“Ahhhhh! It’s Qin You! He’s so handsome!”

“Eh, wasn’t he in another class? Why is he here?”

“He’s even carrying his bag with him, could he be…”

Then, Jiang Rushi tapped on the table to gesture for everyone to be quiet.

“This is a new student who will be transferred to our class from today onwards. Qin You, could you introduce yourself please?”

Qin You nodded his head. “Hello everyone, my name is Qin You.”

Right after he said that, the women below the podium could not help but squeal out softly in surprise.

“His voice is also so gentle! I’m going to die! I’m going to die!”

“The most handsome guy in our school is actually coming to our class! What kind of godly luck is this?!”

“What the f*ck! He’s actually transferring classes. Aaaah! I hope he’ll sit closer to me…”

Qin You laughed and continued by saying, “From today onwards, I’ll be a member of the second year (12) class. I hope we’re able to get along with each other.”

Jiang Rushi scanned through the excited crowd below the podium and pointed at the empty desk at the rightmost corner. “Qin You, since you’re tall and there’s an empty space over there, you’ll be sitting there then.”

The crowd gradually turned to look at the direction Jiang Rushi was pointing to when they heard that.

When Su Junxin noticed that there were gazes looking at her from all directions, she scanned the empty seat beside her through the edge of her eyes. Then, the edge of her lips subtly twitched.

Soon after, under the gaze of the entire class, Qin You arrived at his seat.

He leaned his head sideways and was all smiles as he greeted her.

“Hi, Student Su; we meet again.”

When faced with the man that looked exactly like Cloud’s, Su Junxin’s heart could not help but skip a beat. 

In fact, she found it a little hard to have eye contact with him. Hence, she merely acknowledged him before turning away.

Suddenly, she seemed to have remembered something as she took out the scar removal cream from her drawer and placed it on the table.

“This is yours, isn’t it?”

Qin You nodded his head. “Yeap, that scar removal cream is very effective.”

“Thanks, but I’m not using it.”

Then, she pushed the cream to his side. Her tone was obviously a little cold, and after saying that, Su Junxin shifted her attention to the blackboard.

On the other hand, Qin You did not intend to force her to keep it and merely smiled when he heard what she said. Then, he kept the cream in his own drawer…

Halfway through the class, Jiang Rushi set up some questions regarding that day’s lesson. The classroom was extremely quiet as they took the test. After Su Junxin was done, she spaced out with one hand supporting her chin while the other spun her pencil.

Suddenly, something seemed to have appeared within her sights.

Su Junxin lifted her eyelids to look at it and saw a piece of chocolate that was still wrapped in its tin foil; the chocolate was pyramid-shaped where the tip on top of the triangle had a butterfly knot on it with a very fine gold ribbon. Behind it, there was even a light blue sticky note.

The handwriting was unexpectedly beautiful, and the words were of a thin font, seemingly written with a fine tip. 

‘Are you in a bad mood? Would you like a piece of chocolate?’

Su Junxin pursed her lips and extended the tip of her pen to push both the chocolate and sticky note back to where it came from.

Then, she turned her head to another direction and faced the wall.

A moment later, she suddenly felt as if someone was poking her arm, and she subconsciously turned her head. However, she once again saw that there was chocolate on her table.

Moreover, there were two pieces of it that time.

Su Junxin was a little surprised as she looked at Qin You; in return, all she saw was him blinking his eyes, gesturing towards her to look at his bag, which had many chocolates inside.

Qin You seemed to be gesturing to Su Junxin… ‘If you don’t accept it, I’ll just keep giving you more.’

Su Junxin instantly went speechless.

She stared at the two pieces of chocolate for a moment, and her fingers slid past her slippery desk. Then, she pinched the little ribbon on top of the chocolate and dragged it towards her.

A strong taste seemed to be spreading within her mouth as she turned around to meet his gaze. At that moment, she revealed her first sincere smile since the two of them met.

“Thank you.”
