Chapter 78 was not meant to hit you

Guan Xi stood there, her face instantly turning pale. She looked at Xue Qiqi timidly and said, "Xue... Xue Qiqi..."

Xue Qiqi carried her luggage and stared straight at Guan Xi. The hatred in her eyes was on a whole new level. "Gu Wenxi, I underestimated you. If you think that I'm going to just let this go, you've got another thing coming."

Guan Xi shrank back as if she was scared. "Xue Qiqi, what are you talking about? I... I don't understand."

Xue Qiqi's face scrunched up. She looked like she was about to spit fire.

She hated this delicate act that Gu Wenxi's was putting on. She was obviously just a ***** in a sheep's skin.

This was how she was seducing men.

Even the always arrogant Young Master Xiao had fallen in her spell.

Xue Qiqi couldn't hold back her anger anymore. She threw down the luggage in her hands and strode up to Guan Xi. Her hand rose, fully intending to slap Guan Xi.

The surrounding students could not help but gasp in shock.

'PAK!'

The sound was very heavy.

One of Xue Qiqi's hand was in Guan Xi's grip while her other was covering her cheek. With her eyes wide as copper bells, she exclaimed in disbelief, "Gu Wenxi, how dare you hit me?"

Their audience were also shocked by Guan Xi's behavior.

They looked at her with a strange look. They did not expect that the delicate Gu Wenxi would actually hit someone!

Additionaly, it was clearly Xue Qiqi who wanted to hit Gu Wenxi. How did Gu Wenxi turn the tables so quickly? They didn't even notice it!

Guan Xi quickly let go of Xue Qiqi's hand as if she was frightened of what she had just done. "Xue... Xue Qiqi, I-I didn't mean it. It was you who wanted to hit me. It was just a reflex. I'm... I'm sorry."

When the students heard that, they immediately calmed down.

Yes, it was Xue Qiqi who wanted to hit Gu Wenxi. It was only normal for Gu Wenxi to retaliate.

Guan Xi took in all the reactions of the students from the corner of her eyes, satisfied that she had put out the fire.

She really was a great actress!

Xue Qiqi was still covering her burning cheek as she glared at Guan Xi.

Guan Xi looked at Xue Qiqi, her slender shoulders trembling in fear.

She bit her lip and hesitated for a moment. Suddenly, she took a step forward and whispered a few words into Xue Qiqi's ear.

Guan Xi's voice was too soft that no one else heard what she said but Xue Qiqi.

After saying her piece, Guan Xi took a step back and bowed. She said softly, "Student Xue, I'm sorry for slapping you. I've always been misunderstood by others so I know how hard it is. I... I believe that you're innocent. You're definitely not the kind of person that the school reported."

She then turned around and left the crowd of onlookers.

The people who were left looked at Xue Qiqi who stood rooted to the ground.

"Gu Wenxi doesn't seem like a bad person. She just said that she was misunderstood, right? I think it's possible..."

"It was Xue Qiqi who wanted to hit her now. Although she hit Xue Qiqi out of self-defense, she still apologized."

"Despite what everyone said, I've always known that she was not the type of girl to fool around with men."

"Didn't Young Master Xiao defend her last time? She said that she didn't want him to be misunderstood too. If she really was that kind of person, wouldn't she have clung onto him long ago? And she's not a mistress! It was her biological uncle who came to pick her up."
