Chapter 251: In school, there is something more attractive than people
Qin Ruan's gaze lingered on Ling Xiaoxuan for a moment, and a smile appeared on his face. "Then let's go together. I'll wait for you."
"I'll go change into something more comfortable!" Ling Xiaoxuan ran towards the wardrobe.
Fifteen minutes later.
The two of them left the dormitory and headed to the school library.
As the two girls with different styles walked on campus, they attracted many people's attention. One was seductive and charming, while the other was pure with a hint of charm. Their every move and expression were like a beautiful landscape painting.
Ling Xiaoxuan was used to being stared at, but today she felt something was off. The people passing by were looking at her with bold and direct gazes, mixed with malicious intentions.
Ling Xiaoxuan's beautiful face darkened, and her delicate eyebrows furrowed.
One of the passers-by who met her gaze had malicious intentions in his eyes, which she clearly saw. She glared fiercely at him, and he hurriedly walked away.
Ling Xiaoxuan looked at Qin Ruan beside her, her heart full of doubt as she saw her calm expression and lack of eye contact with anyone.
"Qin Ruan, what's going on? What are they all looking at?"
"We're here." Qin Ruan answered nonchalantly.
She stood at the entrance of the library, unaffected by anyone's gaze, and spoke in a flat tone.
Ling Xiaoxuan pouted. "You're too boring."
"Am I?" Qin Ruan turned around and looked at her with a smile that was not quite a smile.
She did not feel bored at all. After all, in this school, there was something more attractive than people.
There were also many people around the library, and their gazes swept over Ling Xiaoxuan and Qin Ruan. Some looked disdainful, some had malicious intentions, and some were provocative and had a superior attitude.
When they looked at the two of them, it was as if they were looking at something dirty.
As a member of a prestigious family, Ling Xiaoxuan was inevitably a bit pampered.
Qin Ruan can tolerate, but she cannot tolerate it.
"All these people with their crooked eyes and twisted mouths, if they're sick, they should go to see a doctor. Don't make a scene here. It hurts my eyes just looking at them!"
With this outburst, the pedestrians around them slowed down intentionally and almost ran away in the blink of an eye.
Qin Ruan smiled and spoke calmly to the still angry Ling Xiaoxuan, "Why bother getting angry with them? Let's go inside. I need to check something."
"Your attitude makes it seem like you're a soft target who anyone can push around."
Ling Xiaoxuan felt resentful, but she knew that Qin Ruan was not someone to be trifled with.
Whether it was their first meeting and the image of Qin Ruan's ferociousness when she beat someone up, or the recent discovery that she was a member of the Xuanmen, it was clear that she was not to be underestimated.
Qin Ruan remained composed and walked towards the library, "There are always people with poor judgement."
Ling Xiaoxuan remembered that a while back, Qin Ruan had beaten up Hou Xiangli in the school cafeteria, and many people had witnessed it.
It was unlikely that anyone would try to provoke her in the short term.
Whether in the past or in the present, Qin Ruan had never been one to be bullied.
Ling Xiaoxuan still remembered the first time they met in a bar, when Qin Ruan had beaten up a group of young men who had tried to take advantage of her.
Her fighting style was eye-opening for Ling Xiaoxuan, who had received professional combat training since elementary school.
The two of them walked into the library without saying another word, respecting the need for a quiet environment for those studying.
Qin Ruan put the book she was holding into Ling Xiaoxuan's arms and whispered in her ear, "Go find a spot over there, Senior."
She pointed to the reading area on the left side.
Ling Xiaoxuan made a gesture indicating that there was no problem, and asked in a low voice, "What are you going to do?"
"I'm going to find some books. I'll come find you in a bit."
After Ling Xiaoxuan nodded, Qin Ruan turned around and headed towards the section where the books she needed were located.
She quickly found the books she was looking for in a matter of minutes.
Ling Xiaoxuan sat in the reading area and realized that she hadn't even read a few lines of the table of contents of her book when Qin Ruan returned.
She was a bit surprised, "That was fast?"
Ling Xiaoxuan deliberately found a place with fewer people, fearing that she would be suffocated if she couldn't speak.
Qin Ruan scanned the empty seats around and smiled at Ling Xiaoxuan. She placed her book on the table, sat opposite her, and browsed through the book in her hand.
Ling Xiaoxuan looked at her book seriously, her delicate face full of seriousness, sometimes frowning, sometimes showing a puzzled look.
It was as if she had encountered some particularly troublesome problem.
Ling Xiaoxuan rested her arm on the table, propped up her chin with one hand, and looked bored.
She didn't pay attention to what book Qin Ruan was reading. If she had noticed, she would have been shocked and unable to remain calm.
"Do you see her? The one in the light-colored pants across from us."
"Her?"
"Yes, her. She looks like such a slut!"
"She doesn't seem like it to me. I think she has a cold and arrogant character."
"Character, do you understand? It's all about character!"
Behind Qin Ruan, one row away from Ling Xiaoxuan, two girls were talking quietly.
They thought their voices were small enough, but their conversation was still heard by Ling Xiaoxuan and Qin Ruan.
Other people around also heard it. Some people glared at the two girls with disgust, annoyed that they were disturbing their reading.
There were also those who, because of what the two girls said, looked at Qin Ruan and stared at her recklessly.
Ling Xiaoxuan's eyes dimmed, and her face was extremely ugly.
Here they come again! When will these people ever stop?
Ling Xiaoxuan suppressed her anger and turned her head to coldly glare at the two girls sitting next to her.
Seeing their panicked expressions when they were caught, Ling Xiaoxuan sneered and coolly raised her middle finger to them.
She moved her red lips, opening and closing them silently, expressing a few words.
The two girls stared at her, and soon understood what Ling Xiaoxuan had said.
She was saying: Just you wait!
Qin Ruan didn't know when she had lifted her gaze from her book and was now staring at Ling Xiaoxuan's every move.
She smiled gently and her lips curved up.
Ling Xiaoxuan turned her head and met Qin Ruan's teasing gaze.
She clicked her tongue, ''Those people are all sick!''
''Yeah, seriously sick,'' Qin Ruan's gaze shifted beyond her to the two girls beside her, with a smile in her eyes.
It was as if the person being talked about wasn't her, and she didn't show any anger at all.
In fact, Qin Ruan didn't really know what had happened.
But she could clearly see the baby ghost lying on the girl to her left.
Its blood-red eyes were filled with hatred as it glared at the girl, exuding a terrifying aura.
Unlike Qin Ruan's calm attitude, Ling Xiaoxuan believed that something had happened between the two people that they were unaware of, and the behavior of those people was really strange.
She pulled out her phone and checked the school forum.
Unfortunately, the previous posts had been deleted completely.
As for who was responsible, no one knew.
Just as everyone was getting into the conversation, the posts inexplicably disappeared, and the account of the person who posted them couldn't even be found.
Some of the commenters' accounts were deleted as well.
Fortunately, there were still people discussing on the forum.
Through those scattered remarks, Ling Xiaoxuan finally understood what was going on.
