Someone Has To Take Responsibility III

The moment she turned, a vine slithered out from below her feet and with a loud slapping sound, the vine whipped her face, leaving a bloody scar on her fair and tender skin.

"Hiss!" Lianyi gasped in pain. She lifted a hand to wipe her face only to realize that her hand was covered in blood. There was fury in her eyes. "Feng Ruqing!"

The guards exchanged glances.

"Miss Lianyi, she had already left. It might… not be her."

Lianyi's body was trembling, the resentment clear in her eyes. "Who else could it be but her? This vine clearly belongs to her. I've never deliberately gone against her or done anything to her but she keeps trying to harm me. I will remember this. Even if General asks about this, she will be the first to be blamed!"

The general had taught them to never bully others because of their authority and never to be arrogant. She had done as he told her to.
