Chapter 52: Chapter 52 Refreshing Impressions

"You should go back to class now."

"Okay, goodbye, teacher."

Qiao Xian left the office, and Teacher Qian looked at Teacher Cao, "You plan to downplay this matter?"

Teacher Cao looked helpless, "You heard it too, didn’t you? Zhen Yu said she wanted to change seats, clearly leaving the decision about this matter to me."

"You’re really not going to pursue it? She rummaged through someone else’s bag, took their belongings, and accused them of being a thief before anyone else, framing others. If you really let her get her way, that child Zhen Yu..."

"Mou Jingjing may or may not have stolen the ruler and compass, even Zhen Yu has no evidence! We can only discuss the false accusation! Zhen Yu came to me privately about changing seats, which means..."

"Which means Zhen Yu is kind-hearted! But even if you’re worried about the public opinion on Mou Jingjing, you still have to be fair and just, right?"

"Mou Jingjing’s grades are still good! It’s just her character... Sigh! Find a time and have her apologize to Zhen Yu!"

"An apology is necessary! And you should hurry up with the seat change too!"

"Tch, you really care a lot about this child Zhen Yu, huh?"

"This kid is good at English! She said she had some exposure before! I think it’s not just exposure, but looks more like she’s had systematic training. She’s even better than my class representative and Duoduo!"

"The English class representative is Wu Qiong..." Teacher Cao muttered to himself, then suddenly raised his eyebrows and said: "In that case! Just have Zhen Yu and Qian Duoduo be desk mates!"

"That would be great! Duoduo can learn from her, this Zhen Yu..."

-

When Qiao Xian returned to the classroom, the noon incident had already spread throughout the class.

The entire classroom was as noisy as a marketplace, and when he entered, everyone visibly quieted down.

Under the gazes of everyone, Qiao Xian silently went straight back to his seat and had just sat down when the bell for class rang.

Seeing this scene, there were those who were disheartened, disappointed, angry, and those who quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhen Yu’s heart was still as dead water, undisturbed.

She was confident that Teacher Cao would adjust her seat.

Unexpectedly, the one who ended up changing seats successfully and leaving this ’poisoned area’ turned out to be the poisoner herself.

For three consecutive lessons, Zhen Yu always followed the teacher out of the classroom and returned at the ring of the bell.

Eventually, she was met with the after-school duty she had been absent from for many years.

-

Mou Jingjing stood in the middle of the aisle, her expression awkward, "Zhen Yu,"

"Get out of the way!" Zhen Yu naturally couldn’t have a pleasant expression toward someone who had hurt her.

Seeing Zhen Yu’s face, Mou Jingjing immediately became anxious, "I,"

Seeing her about to speak again, Zhen Yu turned and headed towards her seat, if you don’t move aside, I can take another path.

"Ah~" Seeing this, Mou Jingjing immediately reached out, trying to grab Zhen Yu. She had to convince Zhen Yu not to pursue the matter today, otherwise, she might face punishment tomorrow.

Zhen Yu’s body reacted faster than her mind, automatically executing a shoulder throw.

Mou Jingjing lay on the ground screaming nonstop, then Zhen Yu realized what she had done.

Her recent ’morning exercises’ seemed to have had a clear effect, at least her instincts had been honed, it’s just that strength isn’t something that can be dramatically increased overnight.

Given her petite height of 1.5 meters, and despite not having trained for long, Mou Jingjing’s cries were loud, but it probably wasn’t that painful.

If she had been really thrown hard, she would’ve passed out long ago, what’s the point of screaming now~

-

The classmates on duty were all baffled by this scene.

Zhen Yu paid no mind to Mou Jingjing, walking to the corner where the cleaning tools were stored, and casually tossed the broom into the corner.

Picking up her bag, she dropped a sentence, "I’ve finished sweeping."

And then she walked straight out of the classroom.

Mou Jingjing sprang up, hesitated for a moment, and did not dare to chase out of the classroom.

Other students gathered in small groups, whispering among themselves.

Clearly, Zhen Yu had once again altered her classmates’ impression of her.

On the first day, she scored full marks, so I thought she was a bookworm; unexpectedly she solved a case on her own, turns out she’s a detective.

I thought she only fought battles on paper and preferred psychological tactics; never imagined her combat power was also high, revealing her true skills when it comes to action.

-

Upon turning into the teaching building’s entrance at Fangshan, Zhen Yu was startled, the people waiting for her here were unexpectedly all present.

The Han Family Brothers, Bai Xue, Fu Yu, Zhen Yan.

Not one less, all silently lined up in a row.

Zhen Yu felt warmth in her heart and her tone softened, "Why all the long faces?"

As soon as Bai Xue heard her voice, she rushed over, and although Zhen Yu slightly tensed up, she remained standing in place.

As expected, Bai Xue embraced her, and her indignant voice erupted the next instant, "That Mou Jingjing is just too mean! Should we wait for her off-campus and beat her up!"

Zhen Yan also said, "Little sister, don’t be mad! Your brother will take care of it for you shortly!"

"Ming Yue..." Han Mingyue softly called her name, her voice filled with subtle worry.

Han Jiaoyang and Fu Yu also looked at her, their eyes conveying concern.

Zhen Yu gave a light laugh, her expressionless face as if ice was beginning to thaw, "I’ve already fought. Let’s go home!"

Everyone: "..."

They forgot Xiao Yu knows martial arts! Not the average person can handle her.

Zhen Yan could barely suppress the grievances in his heart; as a brother, he didn’t even get a chance to stand up for his sister! What to do?

-

Chatting in small groups, they walked on. Han Mingyue subconsciously stayed at the very end.

Zhen Yu had been paying attention to him and seeing this, seemingly unintentionally slowed her pace, pulling abreast with him.

"Han Mingyue~" Zhen Yu took the initiative to call out to him.

"Hmm?" Han Mingyue turned to look at her.

"Pack up the eighth-grade textbooks for Zhen Yan."

"!" Han Mingyue was surprised, "You want to study by yourself?"

"Yeah, just to look at when I’m free."

Han Mingyue fell silent for a moment, being an academic whiz himself, he naturally knew that the junior high curriculum wasn’t too demanding, there was indeed time to learn something else.

Looks like I need to work harder too~

"Okay, when shall I bring them to you?"

Zhen Yu thought for a second, "Come over for lunch at my house tomorrow."

"Alright!"

It was just a small agreement at first, but it soon became the norm.

-

Before the Zhen Family siblings and the others parted ways, Zhen Yu warned everyone not to let their parents know about this.

Though they were puzzled, they all nodded and agreed.

In fact, Zhen Yu wasn’t so much afraid of escalating the conflict; she mainly dreaded Mrs. Zhen’s ’deadly incessant nagging’.

Compared to Luo Jiaying’s portrayal of Tang Seng in Journey to the West, it was a close match.

Zhen Yan didn’t ask in detail in front of others, but after dinner, under the pretense of doing homework, he pulled her back to their small bedroom.

"Little sister, tell me! Did you fight that girl after school? Did your classmates see it? You mustn’t let the teachers find out..."

Zhen Yan interrogated her non-stop, Zhen Yu felt her head swell and hastily cried, "Stop!"

"I didn’t hit her! Just flipped her over my shoulder."

Zhen Yan’s eyes gleamed as he exclaimed with gestures, "A shoulder throw? Like the ones they show on TV, ’wham’—the kind where you slam someone onto the ground?"

Zhen Yu nodded, "Yeah."

Upon confirmation, Zhen Yan leaned close in excitement, "Little sister, you’re so awesome! What else can you do? How about you teach me? I want to go to the police academy in the future! Become a police officer!"
