7 Stay Safe (Edited)

Yue Xiang wanted to avoid sending his sister to school by claiming he was too busy, but upon sensing his father's gaze hinting to him menacingly, he decided that it would be better to just go.

'My precious darling has served you some meat, you need to attend to her until you've finished digesting it.'

Yue Xiang didn't have any room to argue with his Dad, so he hung his head in annoyance: 'I have lost all of my face because of a single piece of meat. And taking her with me...' He let out a prolonged sigh: 'Is equal to sitting on a hot stove.'

Yue Wan didn't mind her big brother's antics. She happily took her backpack and left the room, but not before she gave a sweet kiss to her Father.

Yue Yeager felt sorry for his poor son, but once he received the kiss, he sent them off with a goofy smile on his face.

'My Princess kissed me twice today! Hahaha, my Little Wan is an angel!'

Sitting side by side in the car, neither Yue Wan nor Yue Xiang spoke a word during the whole 20-minute ride. Both were preoccupied with their own thoughts. Yue Xiang was still debating whether or not to let Little Wan know about what happened to her. He feared that she would lash out at him like she used to do when he tried to tell her about her friend.

On the other side of the car, Yue Wan sat on pins and needles as she held little hope that her brother would try to talk to her about this morning episode. Despite her high hopes, her expectations were dashed when the car stopped at the school's entrance without him saying a word.

Before she could unlock the door, a dry voice softly said, "Stay safe. Be careful."

Yue Wan was astounded when she heard her brother. She unlocked the door swiftly, and without turning back, she answered: "I will, big brother."

Yue Wan fled the car like a rocket in order to hide her mixed emotions of happiness and sorrow from hearing the care in her brother's voice.

Yue Xiang didn't expect any reply from her, but the way she called him big brother made him feel nice. Yue Xiang's lips curled up into a smirk.

'So the Lion is ready to hunt.' He declared

After that, Yue Xiang ordered the driver to return back home. At first, he was planning to discuss yesterday's incident this morning with Yue Yeager, but since Little Wan insisted on going to school, he needed to postpone his plan.

------ At School---------

Yue Wan didn't want her brother to suspect her further, she already had enough on her plate to deal with. 'It is better to keep my distance from big brother for now. He is too quick witted.'

Throwing her thoughts into the back in her head, Yue Wan stared up at the front doors of her school.

It was the most prestigious school in A-city. Called 'The Western Academy of Xiao (WAX International Education),' WAX was the leading international IB World school. It was established after World War II and in the beginning, it was purely a military school. It was only after a few years that they had developed it into a highly regarded international educational institution.

WAX prided itself on its world class facilities, highly qualified teachers, global curriculum, and service oriented culture. WAX provided a learner centered atmosphere that nurtured a strong sense of community among the students with the mission to "Connect, Inspire, and Challenge."

They encouraged their students to take their place as responsible citizens of the world. They can influence their surroundings through intellectual consideration and confident performance. However, once a student was expelled, it would be quite challenging to continue his or her education in any part of the world. Getting expelled from WAX was similar to being uneducated throughout one's life.

Seeing the school entrance made her remember the painful memories of her past. Right after her drug-addiction news leaked, she was expelled from WAX before completing her final year.

On her last day before she left the campus, she was brutally assaulted by her classmate. They poured various things all over her and cursed her a lot with words she doesn't want to remember, but always seem to be echoing in her head. Her nerves tighten, making her shiver unconsciously. She gripped her hands together in order to calm down and prevent them from shaking.

"You're not the past Wan, you will not make the same mistakes."

After calming down, she took a glance at the school with a thin smile.

'This time I will be the judge, not simply a pawn.'

Yue Wan started to head inside with confidence and determination, but she suddenly stopped in her tracks.

'My goodness! How could I forget that! I should go there first.' She thought.

Yue Wan took some time before setting off to her classroom. However, once she arrived inside, she was welcome with various sorts of gazes. As she expected, they were gawking at her, so without wasting her time on them, she seated herself in the left corner, third seat.

Yue Wan's classmate started mumbling with one another and a girl with short, curly black hair and a round face drew closer to Yue Wan and spoke in a not so loud voice.

"Yue Wan, we heard that you blacked out yesterday. Is it true?"

The other students in the classroom turned to the two girls talking in the corner, waiting for Yue Wan's response. Yue Wan held her smile inside and looked at the newcomer with an innocent expression on her face.

"Who said that Miss. Fan?"

Fan Daiyu looked stunned at seeing Yue Wan peerless jade face with such an innocent expression on it. Only one thought came to her mind after looking at her for so long: 'Why does this Bit**ch have such an elegant face?'

Fan Daiyu's heart craved to scratch that Bit**h's face to shreds a million times over, but then she remembered her plan.

'So what if you have a beautiful face? A whore is still a whore.' She sneered inside her heart.

A girl next to Fan Daiyu inquired without any trace of respect: "Miss Yue, what type of beauty product do you use? Your skin looks so flawless. Can you recommend some to me?"

Yue Wan loved to share her tips for makeup and she had a wide variety of tricks under her sleeve. So with a sweet and soft voice, she said: "If you don't mind, I would love to."

What girl in this world did not have the desire to look attractive? Quickly, some of the other girls from the class assembled near Yue Wan's table with bright, eager faces...

"Miss Yue, what kind of cream did you use?" One young lady inquired.

Not long after, all of the girls in the class were surrounding Yue Wan, afraid to lose out on all the information Yue Wan was giving on style and beauty.
