“You…”
The girl looked to be in her early twenties. She was so angered by Qin Yiyi’s words that she almost could not speak.
However, she thought of something else in the blink of an eye. Her brows furrowed slightly, and her tone was filled with unspeakable contempt and disdain.
“You are quite sharp-tongued. You used your dirty mouth to insult my master.”
Master?
She seemed to have noticed Qin Yiyi’s doubt, but at the same time, she seemed to have pointed it out on purpose.
The girl let out a cold snort and spoke very arrogantly, “My master is none other than Master Ma, a famous painter and calligraphist. He has held several national art exhibitions and has been received by the central leadership. You are just a little girl. What right do you have to be disrespectful to my master?”
“That’s right. Not only did you disrespect Master Ma, but you also disrespected our Sister Cheng.”
“That’s right.”
A few boys and girls, who had followed Cheng Shuying over, nodded in agreement.
There was even someone who deliberately suggested, “Let her apologize.”
“That’s right. Apologize to Master Ma and Sister Cheng in front of the entire school.”
Qin Yiyi finally understood when she heard this. Oh, these people in front of her, were they here to vent their anger at that so-called Master Ma?
Mm, that’s not right either. There should be some other reason.
For example, who was trying to sow discord in the middle?
This ‘who’ referred to someone Qin Yiyi was well aware of.
She looked at the other party with some pity. She was already treated as a fool and had stood out, yet she was still talking so arrogantly.
She was really stupid to the core!
What a pitiful child.
She laughed in her heart and blinked her eyes. The innocence on her face became even more obvious.
“I don’t know you guys, nor do I know anything about calligraphy or traditional Chinese painting. Please make way for me. I’m going to be late.”
“No way.”
“If you don’t apologize, this matter will not end today.”
Qin Yiyi pretended to be angry. “How can you be so unreasonable? I don’t even know you, yet you insist on stopping me, right? Fine, then you wait.”
Cheng Shuying stood there and looked at her with a face full of determination. “You insulted my master, so you have to apologize. You said that he is not worthy to be your master. You are so ignorant.”
Qin Yiyi, however, couldn’t be bothered to listen to what she had to say anymore and directly turned around.
“Security Uncle, they are bad people. They are bullying a good student like me and won’t let me enter the school to attend classes. I demand protection.”
Ding Yi, who was hiding in the back, couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his mouth when he heard these righteous words.
‘With your skills, you still want protection?’
‘I just don’t know what really happened. Who’s going to protect who!’
‘Forget it, forget it. Miss Qin seems to be having a good time. I’d better continue to watch.’
In the end, Qin Yiyi successfully entered the school.
Cheng Shuying and the other boys and girls were stopped by the school’s security guard.
“What are you guys doing? You look like you’re in your twenties. Yet you’re actually bullying a little girl? Hurry up and leave.”
“If you continue to bully our school’s students, I’m going to call the police.”
Cheng Shuying and the others naturally couldn’t really fight with the school’s security guards.
Moreover, even if they really did fight, they wouldn’t be able to beat them.
They left with an indignant expression.
Cheng Shuying’s face was filled with annoyance and unwillingness.
Originally, she had wanted to use this matter to gain Master Ma’s favor.
Then, perhaps once Master Ma was pleased, she, as an in-name disciple, would be able to become a real disciple.
There was a big difference between an in-name disciple and a real disciple.
However, she didn’t expect that brat to ask the security guards to chase them away…
A boy behind her rolled his eyes and stood beside Cheng Shuying.
“Sister Ying, why don’t we teach her a lesson?”
Then, he saw Cheng Shuying’s thoughtful expression.
Knowing that his words had attracted the other party’s attention, he was secretly happy. If he could help Sister Ying solve this matter, he would definitely benefit from her in the future!
His heart grew even happier, but he did not show it on his face.
“Isn’t that girl still a student? If we do this after school… I can find a few people.”
“When the time comes, we’ll teach her a lesson!”
Cheng Shuying was also angry at Qin Yiyi’s attitude just now. In addition, the matter that she had originally planned had actually fallen through.
Naturally, she was not in a good mood. After listening to her companion’s words, she pondered for a moment before nodding.
“Alright, I’ll leave this matter to you. Let that girl know the rules. Also, don’t lose your sense of propriety.”
“I know, I know. Sister Ying has a good heart, so we’ll teach her a good lesson.”
Cheng Shuying acknowledged and continued to walk forward.
Since she refused to accept the toast, then she would have to accept the punishment.
After school, Lu Jinwan had to drag Qin Yiyi to go shopping in the evening.
In her opinion, Qin Yiyi was a Straight-A student. Not to mention their school, even the second-year students in the entire city were no match for her. Why was she still working so hard?
In the end, she even used her shameless tricks to grind away the time. Qin Yiyi had to agree because she had a headache.
She sent a message to Ding Yi in advance, telling him not to come and pick her up.
School ended at 5:30 pm.
The teacher dragged on for another half an hour. By the time the two of them packed their bags and walked out of the school gate, it was already a few minutes past 6 pm.
Qin Yiyi didn’t even take a few steps before she felt someone following behind them!
After walking for a short distance, she finally confirmed that the few boys behind them who were dressed in non-mainstream, casual clothes were really following them.
To be more precise, they were following her.
Her eyes flashed. She thought about it and was considering whether to pretend that she didn’t know whether to let them continue following them or to take the initiative to attack.
The few boys behind her actually caught up with them with cheeky smiles.
They blocked the path of the two of them. “Yo, little sister, where are you going? Why don’t you go over there and play with your brother?”
They conveniently pointed to an alley.
There were fewer people, so it was easier to take action!
Un, Qin Yiyi suddenly felt that the other party was pretty good. They had even found a place to get beaten up!
Lu Jinwan was shocked, and her face turned pale.
“What are you guys doing? Get out of the way, or I’ll call for help.”
“Little sister, you’re really naïve. There’s no one on this stretch of road, so it’s useless to call for help. Besides, Big Brother already said that he’ll only let her accompany us, so he doesn’t think much of you.”
After hearing these words, Qin Yiyi finally confirmed that the other party was really looking for her!
“Help me hold my school bag.”
Qin Yiyi stuffed her school bag into Lu Jinwan’s arms and glanced at the few boys with a faint smile.
“Looking for me? You want me to play with you guys, right?”
“Alright, let’s go over there and have a good time!”
After saying that, she actually lifted her feet and took the initiative to walk towards a small alley not far away.
This made Lu Jinwan extremely anxious. “Don’t go over. They’re not good people!”
“It’s fine. I’ll play with them for a while and then come back. Be good and wait for me here.”
Qin Yiyi waved her hand at Lu Jinwan from behind, her tone extremely casual.
Hearing this, the few boys started to laugh.
So, this was a fool?
Walking into the alley, Qin Yiyi was even more satisfied.
A dead-end!
Looking at the boys walking towards her, she tilted her head and smiled.
“Brothers, how are we going to play this?”
Qin Yiyi’s smile was bright and beautiful, and there was a hint of temptation in her innocence.
It made the boys instantly lose themselves in this bewitching smile.
At this moment, Qin Yiyi’s body moved. She raised her leg and kicked the nearest person out. Her body spun, and a punch landed on the other person’s face. Her body sidestepped to avoid the sneak attack from the boys behind her, and she arched her back to kick… She kicked the person forcefully onto the opposite wall!
The few people who were lying on the ground were all sprawling across the ground.
Qin Yiyi went over and gave each of them a few more kicks. Her voice was naïve and cute. “Didn’t you say that you wanted to have fun? Why are you suddenly lying on the ground and not getting up? Aiya, why are your arms and legs broken?”
As her voice sounded, she walked over step by step, with a few soft cracking sounds, the arms and legs of the few people were forcefully broken by her. It was so painful that they fainted one after another.
“Yiyi, Qin Yiyi…”
Lu Jinwan’s voice came from the other side of the alley.
Qin Yiyi’s eyes flashed with a hint of coldness as she looked at the few people who were still unconscious on the ground. She decisively made a call to the police. If they were in trouble, they should look for the police uncle.
She turned around to meet Lu Jinwan’s figure. “Let’s go. There are police over there. They won’t let us pass.”
“Police? The police happened to be here too? Did they help you?”
“Thank god.”
Looking at Lu Jinwan’s delighted look, Qin Yiyi secretly rolled her eyes.
What did she mean thank god? Qin Yiyi relied on herself!
In the alley, Ding Yi directly climbed over the wall. He looked at the few people who had fainted on the ground and kicked them a few more times.
How dare they bully the person their master was protecting? They were courting death!
However, Miss Qin’s attack just now was really valiant and clean.
Yes, she was on par with his master!
Five minutes later.
Shang Jiuying’s phone vibrated lightly while he was in the middle of a meeting. Ignoring the astonished expressions of the people in the meeting, he lowered his head and looked at the message.
The coldness in his eyes condensed bit by bit. In the end, he directly sent two words: thorough investigation!
