Fang Siyan's broad palm was like a small warming stove, continuously transmitting warmth to Ding Ruola's feet. Ding Ruola could feel every subtle movement of his hand.
Her originally extremely sensitive feet were unconsciously teased by the man, causing Ding Ruola's heart to race. For a moment, her thoughts took a detour.
"Old Fang, you're just a stumbling block on my school - going path."
Ding Ruola half - pouted, blushed, glared at Fang Siyan, then jumped off the sofa, hugged her notes and ran towards her room.
Even after returning to her room, the lingering warmth of Fang Siyan's palm still remained on her feet.
"Why is Old Fang so charming? Could it be that I'm just young and impulsive?"
Ding Ruola shook her head and continued to study the notes Fang Siyan had given her.
Classes went on as usual, and Ding Ruola still encountered people she disliked.
During the short break, she was bowing her head, writing down the formulas the teacher had written on the board in the previous class. Suddenly, a shadow loomed in front of her.
"Come to the coffee shop at the school gate after class. I have something to tell you."
Hearing the voice, Ding Ruola raised her head. The speaker was Su Man.
She thought that if this girl had just spoken nicely from the beginning, she wouldn't have disliked Su Man so much.
Su Man saw the hesitation flash in Ding Ruola's eyes. "It's nothing else. I just want to clear things up with you."
Adhering to the principle of making big things small and small things disappear, Ding Ruola finally agreed to Su Man.
She probably couldn't imagine what was waiting for her soon.
After class, Ding Ruola walked towards the coffee shop Su Man had mentioned.
She had never been to this coffee shop before, only heard of it.
She randomly asked a classmate on the way, and the further she walked, the more off - the - beaten - path it became.
She mused that Su Man, an arrogant young lady, would surely not like such a place.
By the time she realized that things were not so simple, it was already too late.
She was covered from behind over her mouth and nose. Before she could struggle, she lost consciousness.
Su Man came out from a room on one side, put a black cloth over her head. "Carry her into the car."
Ding Ruola was slender, so a few girls could still carry her.
The driver was a man.
"Xiang Bei, the ether you made is really good!"
Xiang Bei was the boyfriend of a girl in Su Man's clique. He was from the School of Chemical Engineering. Su Man had heard that this boy was quite capable and thought he could be used to take revenge on Ding Ruola.
When Ding Ruola woke up, she felt that her arms and legs were tied up, and a black bag was also put on her head.
Could she have run into human traffickers?
"Selling people is illegal."
As soon as her voice fell, a clear male voice sounded. The man's voice was very clear. Judging from it, he should be a thin man.
She could also hear the whispers of others. She carefully recalled who she had talked to and where she had been today.
The face of Su Man emerged in her mind.
"Su Man, you're really low - class."
The goading method worked best on those who were self - important.
Sure enough, as soon as her voice fell, Su Man stepped forward and took off the black cloth covering her face.
Suddenly exposed to the strong light, Ding Ruola's eyes were a bit unaccustomed. She suddenly closed her eyes, her face wrinkled like a walnut, and then slowly opened her eyes.
There was a man standing behind a group of women.
She met the boy's eyes.
Why did he look so familiar?
Both of them couldn't help but have this thought in their minds.
"Ding Ruola, do you think just because you're on good terms with Mei Xuejian, I can't deal with you?"
Su Man waved at the boy behind her, signaling him to take action.
She had given the signal, but the boy behind her still didn't move.
Xiang Bei's girlfriend, in order to maintain her status beside Su Man, nudged the boy beside her with her elbow.
"What did you say her name was?"
The boy walked in front of Su Man. His tall figure completely blocked Su Man.
Su Man was startled by Xiang Bei's reaction. She suddenly stammered and finally managed to say Ding Ruola's name again.
"Why do you care about that woman? Xiaobei, don't you love me anymore?"
Xiang Bei's girlfriend suddenly played the emotional card. Ding Ruola couldn't see the expression on the boy's face as he was facing away from her.
Ding Ruola saw the boy turn around and swallowed hard.
With each step the boy took, the air under his feet stirred, and the dust in the air danced in the sunlight.
Ding Ruola's heart began to pound violently. She had never been so nervous before. She thought in her heart - would Old Fang be sad if she died?
The boy stopped in front of Ding Ruola. He suddenly squatted down and untied the ropes on Ding Ruola.
What was going on? Was this like in the movie Infernal Affairs?
Ding Ruola was helped up by the boy.
His girlfriend rushed in front of Ding Ruola in a few steps, raised her elbow and swung it towards Ding Ruola's face.
How hard she swung, Ding Ruola could clearly feel the wind blowing past her temples.
Due to the instinctive reaction of closing eyes out of fear, Ding Ruola missed a good show.
"Don't you know who you've offended?"
Xiang Bei said that Ding Ruola was Shi Zhi's younger sister. As Shi Zhi's subordinate, he naturally had no reason to help outsiders bully his own people.
Ding Ruola was stunned. Shi Zhi's younger sister? When did she become Shi Zhi's younger sister?
But now was not the time to get entangled in this question.
"Xiaonian, you really need to calm down. Look at the friends you've made."
Xiang Bei let go of his girlfriend's wrist. His words were not really a warning, just a reminder, with more regret in them.
The boy led Ding Ruola away from Su Man's clique.
Su Man stood there stupidly. What was she here for today?
This was just a joke. With nowhere to vent her anger, she could only pour it all on Shu Nian.
Shu Nian was grabbed by the hair by Su Man and got a slap on the face.
She was completely dazed. In less than a quarter of an hour, she had received too many blows.
She was left alone there, with the burning pain on her face mixing with the cold.
The next day in class, Ding Ruola noticed the wound on Shu Nian's face.
It was like something exported and then re - imported. That girl Su Man really knew how to apply what she had learned.
Ding Ruola was always a bit soft - hearted. She wondered if she should help Shu Nian, but was awakened by a double - ponytailed girl sitting beside her.
"Don't sympathize with her. She's just a dodder. She'll immediately attach herself to whoever she can rely on."
Ding Ruola glanced at this girl obliquely. Such a small body, but with quite a strong mind.
She stood up, then sat down again and continued reading her book.
Every time she was reading intently, someone would interrupt her.
Knock, knock, knock!
She looked up, and Su Man was standing in front of her desk again.
"I'll only be tricked like that once."
Ding Ruola took the initiative. Unexpectedly, the girl sneered.
"Teacher Song is looking for you."
She was still half - believing and half - doubting, but Ding Ruola couldn't be powerful enough to win over Song He too.
