The Villainous Classmate is My Lucky Star

Chapter 5: Gathering of the Trio

Chi Jingxi's black hair was tied up, his white hairpin reflected the warm, midwinter sun. His snow fox fur hemmed on the edge of his clothes added a touch of limpidness to him.

His appearance made the surrounding noises weaken at once, and as a result, the noises of the Haier brothers became even more apparent.

His handsome eyebrows twisted together, and impatience flashed through his eyes. The sound of his boots touching the ground was drowned out in the noise. He strode towards the two troublemakers. translate(d) by puretl . com / do not steal / re po/st

Then, a youth with red lips and white teeth got off the carriage. He glanced at the crowd for a moment before he chased after Chi Jingxi.

But before that young man caught up, Chi Jingxi had already walked to the door of Cuixiang Building.

The guards behind him stepped forward, trying to push the Haier Brothers aside.

Brother Dark was in the midst of causing a ruckus, and he threw the guards off with his backhand. He turned his head and cursed angrily, "Get the f—!"

The second half of the sentence turned into a scream - Chi Jingxi kicked Brother Dark in the chest. The poor fella rolled over twice and fell into the Cuixiang Building’s lobby.

The people blocking the door all dispersed with the uproar. They bowed their heads respectfully to Chi Jingxi and his company. "Welcome, Little Marquis."

Just as she had read. It was clearly described in the original book that this Little Marquis was notoriously bad-tempered, and the most annoying thing was instead of reasoning with others through words, Third Young Master Chi loved to beat people up.

But with the Little Marquis's background, even if one was beaten, they could only curse their own bad luck. And for some, getting a beating from him was only just the beginning.

When the lively Brother White saw Chi Jingxi, he was instantly stunned. His eyeballs protruded as if they were about to fall off at any moment.

Wen Yantong was startled and wanted to reach out and press them back in.

Chi Jingxi grabbed Brother White by the collar and raised his fist to beat him, but was hugged by Mu Yang behind him. He shouted, "Brother Xi, calm down! Else I’ll be punished again when I go back home! Even if you don't care about yourself, care for me!"

Chi Jingxi twisted his arms, finding him too meddlesome. "Don't stop me! This fat white-y just insulted you. I have to knock out his two teeth!"

"Stop. Mu Yang was just released from the January confinement today. Don't send him in for another month with two more punches." Cheng Xin also came over to persuade him, pulling Chi Jingxi away.

This was the first time that Wen Yantong met the ‘Three Di’ trio.

They were the famous ‘three direct descendants’ of Chaoge City: Cheng Xin, Chi Jingxi, and Mu Yang.

One of the latter two belonged to the Marquis of Anhuai's Residence, and the other belonged to the General's Residence. Cheng Xin's mother was the empress, and his elder brother was the crown prince; he was a direct descendant of the royal family.

The three of them always caused trouble in the city, but the General's Residence was very strict. Every time Mu Yang followed his comrades, he would be punished by the general when he got home.

After listening to Cheng Xin's words, Chi Jingxi still felt sorry for Mu Yang, who was about to be grounded, so he let go of Brother White's collar.

He narrowed his eyes lightly and said coldly, "I’ve seen you in the academy."

What a great memory. Wen Yantong muttered secretly. Could it be that he remembered those protruding round eyeballs?

Brother White was so frightened when he heard him mention the academy that his lips turned white, and his body shook violently.

This was what he feared the most. A beating was okay, but it wouldn’t be good if the Young Master wanted to vent his anger in another way.

Brother White immediately dropped all pretense and slapped himself with all his might. His chubby white face was immediately dyed red, and a handprint appeared.

"I was the one who made rude remarks and was disrespectful to Young Master Mu. I beg the Little Marquis not to blame me. I do not dare do it again." He slapped himself and sincerely admitted his mistake.

Wen Yantong heard the crisp slap sound and suddenly recalled that she had read this scene in the book.

Mu Yang was banned from going outside for a month, and the ban was lifted just in time for the opening of Songhai Academy. After regaining his freedom, Mu Yang was very happy, so he booked a famous restaurant and invited his two brothers to celebrate.

Afraid of being blamed by General Mu again, he had used a pseudonym. Who knew as soon as he arrived at the restaurant, he happened to see three people making trouble. They had even insulted him, Mu Yang. Naturally, these people were cleaned up by Chi Jingxi.

According to the original book, one of the three rioters’ broken leg was kicked. Another was slapped till their face was swollen into a pig's head, while the last one suffered multiple broken ribs and laid in bed for a month.

Wen Yantong was secretly relieved. Fortunately, she had reacted quickly enough, or else her leg bone would have been kicked by now.

These damned dark and white fools! They almost killed her!

After she saw that Brother White really sculpted his face into a pig's head, Mu Yang waved him away.

With the fear for round two, the white pig head really scrammed away. The shop assistant carried out a half-dead man from the building, chased after him, and shouted, "Wait! Your friend is still here!"

The white pig head walked faster and faster as if he didn't hear anything.

Wen Yantong tsked. They insisted on eating at Cuixiang Building. Now see what happened? The Haier brothers lost their camaraderie just like that.

Dumbasses.They deserved it!

The farce dissipated quickly. After Mu Yang pushed Chi Jingxi into the restaurant, everyone watching the excitement also left. Wen Yantong didn't leave but instead stood for a while in an inconspicuous place.

It didn't take long for a dark vermillion wooden carriage to arrive. After it stopped, a girl, wrapped in a soft coral-red colored cloak, got off the carriage.

This girl had a slender face, a pair of dark eyes full of warmth, tender red lips, and ears that were adorned with emerald pearls. Wen Yantong could only see half of her face, but she knew she had a delicate face.

This was a very powerful female supporting role in the book. She was Fu Shi, the heroine’s half-sister born from a concubine mother.

In the early stages, this woman loved Little Marquis very much. However, after the war broke out, she betrayed Little Marquis in exchange for honor and favor. She was a ruthless and scheming person.

Wen Yantong just glanced from a distance before turning around and left. She knew what would happen next.

Mu Yang suppressed the fact that she was the daughter of the prime minister and made her enter this restaurant. Fu Shi then fell in love with Chi Jingxi at first sight.

Wen Yantong didn't have the time to think about love at the moment. She glanced at the sky and calculated that if she hurried now, she might be able to leave the city before dark.

But this Chaoge City was truly massive. Wen Yantong walked three very wide streets but couldn't find a free carriage. In the end, she was very aggrieved and bought a bowl of noodles on the side of the road.

After filling her stomach, she stood by the side of the road to see if an empty carriage would pass by. Just after a while, an old man came up to her and said, "This little boy. I see that your face is not good. Do you want to come with me so I can help take a look?"

Wen Yantong saw that the old man was dressed in plain clothes and had a straw basket on his back. She figured he might be a doctor.

It just so happened that she had caught a cold these past few days. Her headaches kept bothering her, so she nodded in response.

The old man's medical clinic was next door. After entering the store, he put down the straw basket and read her pulse. After a while, he looked up at her in surprise. "I didn't expect you to be a girl."

Wen Yantong smiled. "It's more convenient to go out."

The old man didn't inquire further. He looked at her eyes and throat and sighed while prescribing medicine for her. "You’ve suffered from typhoid fever for a few days, and there is an abscess in your throat. If this continues to be left untreated, you may become bedridden. Since you are a young girl, you should pay more attention to your body.”

Wen Yantong nodded hurriedly. She caught a glimpse of the dried herbs on the table and grabbed it. "These are Cassia seeds."

The old man said, "This little girl has good eyesight."

"I would like some of this," Wen Yantong said.

The old man gave her a disapproving look. "This thing is cold in nature. Your body is weak, so you can't eat it."

"I’m buying it for my father." Wen Yantong lied with her eyes open. "He has had difficulty excreting for the past two days and is feeling very uncomfortable."

Only then did the old man pack some for her, along with some additional medicinal herbs. He wrote down instructions on how to eat them.

Wen Yantong paid generously and thanked him before leaving.

She continued to wander on the streets with two packs of medicine. She was unable to find a carriage or the right path, so Wen Yantong gave up on fleeing for the time being. She decided to find a way to go back to the academy first.

After roaming the streets for so long, Wen Yantong’s nose started to run again. She wiped her snot with her sleeve and started to jump up and down to warm herself up.

When she was jumping vigorously, a carriage suddenly stopped on the road next to her. Thinking it was an empty carriage, Wen Yantong stopped with joy. However, when she looked more carefully, she found out it was the carriage of the Mu Residence.

Ha! Met a ghost during the day!

Wen Yantong was about to scurry away, but the curtains of the carriage were suddenly lifted. Cheng Xin stuck out a smiling face. "Come up. We are going to pass the academy. We can take you back along the way."

Wen Yantong was flattered. After a moment of shock, she thanked him before climbing onto the carriage. The servant beside the carriage helped to support her up onto the carriage.

It's not that Wen Yantong was greedy for benefit, but the noble fifth prince had already spoken. How could she dare to refuse?

The moment she entered the carriage, warm air caressed her face. Wen Yantong's eyelashes immediately formed small water droplets, which were cool and wet.

With only three people inside, the carriage was very spacious.

Chi Jingxi sat in the innermost corner, leaning on the fluffy cushion. His legs were covered with a cotton blanket, and his beautiful eyes were closed, as if he was dozing off.

As soon as Wen Yantong saw him, her leg bones started to hurt.
