Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Sometimes, Gu Ning didn’t think she was very outstanding, but she was quite unbelievable in other people’s eyes.

What Zhang Zikai said was also the truth, because other people immediately looked at her with envy when they found out she was very close to Gu Ning. They even talked about them in a low voice.

“I’m so envious of that girl. She is Gu Ning’s friend.”

“Right, and they are also roommates!”

“Really? I’m so envious of her!”

“…”

Although their voices were low, Gu Ning and Zhang Zikai still heard their discussion. And hearing their words, Zhang Zikai showed obvious pride again.

“Ha-ha, see? What I said is the truth!” Zhang Zikai proudly said to Gu Ning.

Gu Ning kept the resigned smile on her face.

During these days, there was a lot of news in their school, but Gu Ning was absent all the time, so she didn’t know.

Zhang Zikai and the others had discussed the news in their WeChat group, but Gu Ning seldom read the messages, so she didn’t notice it.

“Oh, Gu Ning, I didn’t see your message in our WeChat group. I bet you know nothing about the news we’re talking about now, right?” asked Zhang Zikai. She wasn’t sure whether Gu Ning was aware of it or not because Gu Ning had no interest in gossip. However, it was possible that Gu Ning had heard of the news, but didn’t talk about it with them.

“Yeah, I’ve been a little busy these days, so I didn’t really look at the WeChat group. There are too many messages. I’m too lazy to read them all,” said Gu Ning, then she asked, “What happened?”

“Last Sat.u.r.day, the day when your business group was established, Song Siyao confessed her love to a senior. The senior accepted it because he knew her family background, but he actually has a girlfriend. Song Siyao didn’t know about it until the senior’s girlfriend came to see her on Monday. Unfortunately, the senior’s girlfriend didn’t know Song Siyao’s family background and beat her. No one knows whether it was serious, but Song Siyao’s still absent from school. The girl who beat her was expelled,” said Zhang Zikai. She wasn’t gossiping, but Song Siyao had a grudge against them, so she talked about the news.

Gu Ning only listened to her account and said nothing.

When they almost reached the dormitory, a picture suddenly flashed in Gu Ning’s eyes. She saw two boys having an argument in the small woods of their school, then they started fighting.

One boy took out a knife and stabbed the other boy in the stomach. In an instant, blood came out.

Gu Ning had seen one of the two boys. The boy was Du Jialei who had struck up a conversation with them before and he studies in the Journalism Department.

Gu Ning frowned. She told Zhang Zikai that she needed to leave for a while, then ran away without delay.

Zhang Zikai, who was in the midst of a pleasant conversation with Gu Ning, was struck dumb for a few seconds. When she came back to her senses, Gu Ning had already disappeared.

Although she didn’t know what Gu Ning was going to do, she knew that Gu Ning could protect herself, so Zhang Zikai went upstairs alone.

However, the second she turned around, she heard Song Miaoge’s voice from not far away. “Hey, Zhang Zikai, why are you here alone? Where is Gu Ning? Didn’t she come back with you? Did she run to deal with other things again?”

Hearing Gu Ning’s name, many people turned to look at them with envy. They were envious of them for knowing Gu Ning and having a good relations.h.i.+p with her.

“She said she needs to deal with something and will be back in a while.” Zhang Zikai shrugged. Anyway, Gu Ning was always busy, so they were already used to it. If Gu Ning was suddenly free one day, they would feel it was strange!

“I know she is never free for even a moment. Forget it, let’s go upstairs now!” Song Miaoge shook her head resignedly. She ran back once she learned that Gu Ning was back, but unexpectedly she couldn’t even see her shadow.

Baili Zongxue had also disappeared for days and wouldn’t call or send messages to them. Even if Baili Zongxue told them she needed to go home for something important, she had been absent for too long.

Nevertheless, they didn’t want to a.s.sume that something terrible had happened to their friends, or it might cause their friends bad luck.

…

A minute later, Gu Ning reached the small woods. Because it was time for students to leave their evening cla.s.s, Gu Ning couldn’t run too fast.

Although she couldn’t waste a second on her way to save people, she had to control herself when it was necessary.

In addition, Gu Ning could foresee things quite far in advance now, so the stabbing hadn’t happened yetwhen Gu Ning finally arrived.

However, when Gu Ning was five meters away from them, the boy pulled out a knife from his pocket to stab Du Jialei.

If Gu Ning didn’t come, Du Jialei would certainly be hurt, but Gu Ning wouldn’t allow it to happen since she came. Therefore, the moment the boy took out the knife, Gu Ning quickly ran over.

She moved so fast that she left a vague shadow in the air. Neither the boy nor Du Jialei noticed that someone was coming.

When they realized it, the boy’s hand which was holding the knife was already caught by Gu Ning.

It happened so fast that both of them were stunned.

The next second, Du Jialei saw the knife in the hand of the boy who was arguing with him. His face paled. He couldn’t believe that the boy was going to kill him.

The boy was scared and got back to his reason. He immediately loosened his hand and dropped the knife, then tried to get rid of Gu Ning, but Gu Ning was very strong, so he failed.

“Let me go!” The boy glared at Gu Ning.

However, as soon as he saw Gu Ning’s face clearly, the boy felt frightened.

He recognized Gu Ning and had heard of what had happened these days, so he was aware that Gu Ning wasn’t an ordinary girl.

It was night, but Gu Ning was right in front of him, so he could see her.

Hearing the boy’s voice, Du Jialei turned to look at Gu Ning in surprise. “G-Gu Ning?”

“How do you plan to punish him?” Gu Ning asked Du Jialei.

“I-I-I didn’t mean it. I just lost my reason at that second, so I….” The boy was scared. Before Du Jialei could say anything, he opened his mouth first, then turned to beg Du Jialei. “Jialei, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to hurt you.. Please forgive me this time.”
