The Female Assassin Pretends to Be a Lamb in the Campus

Chapter 81

Qiao Lingling suddenly regained her composure and quickly restored her twisted features to a gentle and amiable look, softly responding, "No...nothing."

Xu Zhilǐ noticed something was wrong and asked, "Do you know each other?"

"We...," Qiao Lingling glanced at Qiao Ying, then looked at the Xu brothers, inevitably feeling nervous and flustered internally.

Before Qiao Lingling could make up her mind whether to acknowledge their relationship or not, Qiao Ying pushed her luggage and walked away on her own.

She acted as if Qiao Lingling was a complete stranger.

"Grandpa, see you tonight at home - Qiao classmate, wait for me," Xu Zhilǐ quickly said, then chased after Qiao Ying.

Qiao Lingling stared at Qiao Ying's departing back with gloomy eyes.

She clenched the strap of her bag tightly in her hand. Her eyes were as if they could devour someone, even Xu Zhiyi calling her went unnoticed.

"Ah? Teacher Xu, were you calling me?"

"Are you alright?" Xu Zhiyi asked with concern again.

"Sorry, I'm feeling a little uncomfortable. I can't study math with you today either," Qiao Lingling took the opportunity to say.

Xu Zhiyi's eyebrows furrowed almost imperceptibly, but he didn't say anything out of courtesy, telling her to go back to her dorm and rest well, they could do the math another day.

After Xu Zhilǐ took Qiao Ying to register, he also sent her to her dorm.

Qiao Ying arrived late, so there were already three people living in the four-person dorm.

Pushing the door open, the three roommates all looked towards her. After a momentary stunned by her beauty, their expressions immediately became complicated. The first two made knowing eye contact with each other, then reluctantly smiled at Qiao Ying.

The curly-haired girl sitting on the bed painting her nails behind them looked at Qiao Ying with undisguised jealousy, sizing her up and down.

"Qiao classmate, I'll just send you here. If you need anything, come find me at the student union," Xu Zhilǐ reluctantly said to Qiao Ying.

Seeing Xu Zhilǐ at the door, the roommates exchanged glances again. The other two girls, who had not shown their feelings clearly before, now revealed their thoughts because of Xu Zhilǐ.

"Oh my, isn't this our student union chairman? I thought you were so busy you treated everyone equally," the curly-haired girl said sarcastically, then looked at Qiao Ying unpleasantly.

When they first arrived, they had clung onto the handsome Xu Zhilǐ, asking him to take them to register, but he completely ignored them and had another senior student take them instead.

Yet with Qiao Ying, he personally came to deliver her.

Xu Zhilǐ couldn't be bothered to talk to them.

He just said a sentence to Qiao Ying before leaving.

Qiao Ying closed the door behind her and wheeled her luggage into the dorm. Because of Xu Zhilǐ, the atmosphere in the dorm was clearly wrong.

The dorms at Capital University were quite nice - each bed had its own desk, fully equipped with daily necessities and appliances like TVs, fridges, and washing machines.

Everything was prepared for them and the rooms were spacious.

Qiao Ying walked towards the only empty bed space.

But she discovered the name on the nameplate hung above the bed wasn't her name, but instead read "Li Shiyin".

She turned around and saw her name hung above the bed across from this one.

Li Shiyin was sitting on her bed with legs crossed, painting her nails.

Qiao Ying looked down at her, "Move."

Without even lifting her head, Li Shiyin said as she painted her nails, "I don't like that bed space, you can have it. I want this one."

After she finished painting, she held out her hand to admire it.

The two other roommates watched on.

Qiao Ying didn't want to waste words. She grabbed Li Shiyin's wrist and pulled her off the bed, also kicking over her luggage.

Li Shiyin shrieked as she almost toppled over in her high heels.

The two spectators were also given a fright.

Li Shiyin barely steadied herself, and when she turned around to see her luggage kicked over, her anger erupted.

"How dare you kick my luggage?!" She rushed over, raised her hand, and was about to slap Qiao Ying's face while cursing at her.

But before her palm made contact, Qiao Ying easily caught her wrist.

"Hurry up and let go of me, you filthy hands. Do you know who I am? Do you believe me when I say I'll kick you out of Capital University?!"

Qiao Ying exerted a little pressure with her hand.

Instantly, Li Shiyin was overcome with pain. She started screaming, jumping up and down on the spot. Her face twisted in agony. She felt like her bones were crushed. The pain caused her mind to go blank.

Qiao Ying flung her to the ground.

Seeing Li Shiyin's wrist turned purple and the red marks surrounding it, the two roommates were alarmed. They didn't expect Qiao Ying to be so ruthless.

She swept Li Shiyin's things on the bed into the garbage bin: the nail polish, phone etcetera. Then she gave the garbage bin a forceful kick straight onto the bed across from her, spilling trash all over Li Shiyin's bed.

She sat down and began tidying her own luggage.

Still crumpled on the floor in pain, Li Shiyin was frightened by the nightmarish sight of her own wrist. Fearful that her bones were broken, she let out a shriek when the garbage bin narrowly missed her ear as it flew by. Her cries of pain abruptly ceased.

As Li Shiyin came back to her senses, she yelled at the two roommates: "What are you two standing there for? Come help me up! Are you dead?"

The two roommates hurried over to support Li Shiyin up.

Evidently, they had become Li Shiyin's followers.

How could they, ordinary girls from average families, compare to Li Shiyin - not only was her family wealthy, she was also a native of the capital city. And the spoiled Li Shiyin had never suffered this kind of treatment before. As the two roommates assisted her, she left Qiao Ying with vicious words: "Just you wait."

She then urged them to bring her to the infirmary.

Qiao Ying didn't have much to tidy up either. She put away her clothes in the closet and set up her computer on the desk.

Lying down on her bed with her phone, she saw she had messages from both Qin Hanyue and Qiao Yi.

She responded briefly to Qiao Yi’s message first and chatted for a bit.

Then she curtly replied "Thanks" to Young Master Qin’s courteous message congratulating her on starting university and wishing her a wonderful campus life.

Qin Hanyue waited with his phone after receiving this lone "Thanks" that he had expected would be all the response gotten.

Just then, Qiao Ying was suddenly added to the class group chat by the supervisor.

The group was very lively, everyone actively participating. As soon as Qiao Ying entered, many people tagged her, urging the “newbie” to share photos of herself.

Among them, someone named “Little Candy” tagged her the most, asking her to post selfies.

Cherry: 【Qiao Ying? Can it be that genius from Yun City who got a 690 in the college entrance exam without even writing the essay composition?】

A Few Words: 【Oh my god, I know her! I heard the principal personally went to snatch her from other universities!】

Little Deer’s Words: 【I can’t believe I’m in the same department and class as the genius. I beg to witness her natural talents!】

Cherry: 【@Qiao Ying, esteemed one, would you kindly tell us why you didn’t write the essay? I’ve been curious all summer!】

Little Candy: 【Stop tagging her if she doesn’t want to talk about it. She’s a top student, not like us. Let’s go back to our chat.】

A Few Words:【Oh well then. @Little Candy, since the school goddess isn't sharing pics, care to bless us with a couple selfies, class belle?】

Little Candy: 【Oh...fine then.】

Little Candy sounded reluctant, but promptly posted seven selfies in a row. Instantly the chat was flooded with her pictures. Taking a closer look - the heavy editing, filters, facetuning, and photoshopping made her face's contours blurred and asymmetrical on both sides.

A Few Words:【Love it, love it! /Heart】

Cherry: 【If the other classes don't have pretty girls, then Little Candy gets promoted to Department Flower!】

Supervisor:【Uh...why don't you all just wait until you meet Qiao tomorrow at military training?】

A Few Words: 【Supervisor, what you’re implying is that Qiao is prettier than the class beauty? For real? Pics please!】

Little Candy: 【Not to gossip, but I happened to see Qiao’s video interview after the college entrance exam, and her facial features and whatnot seemed fine: just hope she hasn’t gotten fat! No offense, just telling it like it is.】

A Few Words: 【Dare I ask, how fat?】

Little Candy: 【Surely not over 165 pounds? Oh she's so smart, looks and figure must not matter to someone like that!】

Cherry: 【I’ll be off to go unpack now.】

Supervisor:【......】
