Chapter 244: Chapter 244: Don't Leave After School (5)
 

Chuzheng hadn't fallen asleep yet when she heard someone twisting her bedroom door.

The outside had already quieted down.

She had locked the door from the inside when she entered, and the person on the other side couldn't open it, so the sound of twisting the doorknob ceased.

But after a short while, the bedroom door started making noise again.

Chuzheng silently slid out of bed.

The door was opened by someone, a head peeked in to look around, then cautiously stepped in, closed the door behind, and locked it.

The room was very dark, as the person fumbled their way to the bedside.

Suddenly, they pounced toward the bed.

However, they found nothing but bedding; there was no one there.

By the time the man regained his senses and looked up, he saw a dark figure standing beside the bed.

The man's heart pounded with fright.

But he quickly calmed down and snickered, “So you're Chuzheng, right?”

“Uncle likes you a lot, your dad is just foolish, not knowing how to cherish you.”

“If I had a daughter like you, I would definitely pamper her every day.”

The man, seeing no reaction from the person standing before him, gradually grew bolder.

This wasn't his first visit to the Xu Family.

Old Xu's daughter always so reserved and timid, seemed like an easy girl to control.

“Your daddy doesn't know how to show you affection, but uncle will cherish you, you just need to obediently listen to uncle…”

The man reached out his hand to grab Chuzheng.

Before he could touch her, a dark afterimage suddenly swept up from the wall.

The man didn't see what it was before everything went black in front of him.

Chuzheng turned on the light.

The man she had knocked out was the same one who, when she entered the room, had said she was a “little padded jacket” close to his heart.

Chuzheng rubbed her arms.

This scared the life out of her.

What kind of people are these!

Is this how you treat your “little padded jacket”!

Beast!

In the story, the original character was locked at the school by Yu Yue and others today and did not go home.

It was lucky she didn't come back.

If she had, the original character would definitely have encountered this beast.

Given the original character's ability to fight… it would have been doubtful!

–

When Chuzheng went to school, a group of elders at the entrance of the apartment block were gathered together, discussing intensely the scene from that morning.

A naked man was lying at the entrance to the building, with some contraband items scattered around him.

An auntie exclaimed that it was against public morals and quickly called the police.

Now that man had been taken away by the police.

Chuzheng walked past this group of elders expressionlessly.

The items had been found on the man by Chuzheng, she certainly wasn't framing him.

Chuzheng was not afraid of him talking nonsense.

If the beast had any intelligence, he wouldn't admit to breaking into a young girl's room in the middle of the night with ill intentions, only to be knocked out by her.

That would be a crime with an added degree of offense.

Chuzheng entered the classroom to the sound of the morning study bell.

As soon as she walked in, the classroom fell silent in an instant.

“Is that Xu Chuzheng?”

Chuzheng had trimmed her bangs, and even though she hadn't tied up her hair, she looked much more spirited than before.

And Chuzheng's cool and distant demeanor felt refreshing to those around her.

“How did she change like this? Last night, she was called to the office after the evening study, does anyone know what happened?”

“She used to be so gloomy, I felt depressed just looking at her, but now like this…”

“She didn't go through some kind of shock, did she?”

In the eyes of her classmates, Xu Chuzheng was always a timid and fragile person.

Chuzheng ignored the pointers from her classmates and sat quietly in her own seat.

The classmates discussed fervently, but no one approached to talk to her.

Before, Xu Chuzheng was so gloomy, she wasn't likable.

The current Xu Chuzheng was coldly detached, unapproachable, and intimidating to others.

“The monthly exam results are out!”

The class monitor, holding a piece of paper, posted it at the front of the classroom.

Classmates swarmed up to check their grades.

“I'm only in nineteenth place.”

“Oh my god, I moved up eight spots, hahaha, my dad's definitely going to buy me a new phone now.”

“I'm done for, I'm gonna get a beating when I get home.”

“Yu Yue is first place again.”

“She skips school every day and still scores so well, how can she be so enviably gifted!!”

Chuzheng's gaze shifted back from the window and focused ahead.

Yu Yue was in her class.

Though this big sister always skipped classes, her grades were excellent, and in the eyes of her classmates, she was the kind of student who could score among the top even while blindfolded.

This is what they call—the trifecta: beautiful, long-legged, and academically excellent.

The only flaw probably was her love for bullying…

If it weren't for this hobby, Yu Yue would be the perfect goddess.

What a pity.

A goddess no more.

She chose instead to be a cultured delinquent.

The original owner of the body didn't have good grades, it was known without looking that she would be ranked at the bottom.

Yu Yue only came to class in the afternoon.

Standing at the classroom door, she struck a dominant pose and shouted at Chuzheng, “Xu Chuzheng, you come out here.”

Her tone was full of command.

As if she had forgotten the embarrassment of being forced by Chuzheng to drink milk tea the day before.

The classroom suddenly fell silent.

Students sitting near Chuzheng even left their seats, fearing the conflict would spread to them.

Chuzheng flipped through her book nonchalantly, unmoved.

Even if you're good-looking, you can't order me around like this!

“Xu Chuzheng, are you deaf?” Yu Yue grew angry, striding into the classroom, kicking desks and chairs, making a loud clatter.

She approached Chuzheng and swept the book from Chuzheng's hands.

The books on the desk fell to the floor.

Yu Yue slapped the desk hard, “Come outside with me, did you hear that!”

Chuzheng withdrew her hand and placed it in front of her, sitting upright.

She met Yu Yue's angry gaze with eyes as calm as a frigid pool, the chill solidifying.

“Pick it up.”

“What did you say, Xu Chuzheng?” Yu Yue seemed incredulous, scoffing with a sneer, “You don't really think Zhu Zian can protect you, do you?”

“Pick it up,” Chuzheng repeated.

“Heh.”

Yu Yue reached out and swept all the books from Chuzheng's desk to the ground, even stomping on them.

Finally, she looked at Chuzheng provocatively.

Chuzheng stood up, and Yu Yue stepped back with her arms crossed, “Still acting tough? If you have the guts, don't get up. Let's see how far you can go today.”

Having Zhu Zian, she thinks she's something special.

Yu Yue attributed all the changes in Chuzheng to Zhu Zian's support.

Chuzheng took a different path to leave, stepping over her own books as she moved forward.

Yu Yue frowned, “What are you doing, Xu Chuzheng?”

Chuzheng walked to Yu Yue's seat and glanced at her sidelong. Amidst Yu Yue's puzzled and warning gaze—she lifted her foot and kicked over.

Crash—

The desk fell over, with the books and stationery on it, messily strewn across the floor.

The classroom was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Everyone looked at Chuzheng in shock.

From the first time she entered the classroom today, everything about her felt off.

Had she gone mad?

Daring to kick over the desk of a top student and older school sister?

“Xu Chuzheng!” Yu Yue's beautiful eyes blazed with raging fire, “You dare kick my desk.”

At her words, Chuzheng lifted her foot and kicked again.

The desk slid into the aisle, the contents underneath tumbling out, making the scene even messier.

Though she hadn't spoken a word,

everyone understood the message she was sending—what if I kicked it?
