178: Envy, Jealousy, and Hatred

Envy, Jealousy, and Hatred

Had anyone ever witnessed such a scene?1

There were Yin Shaojie and Han Qiqing, who were big shots of the Big Four families. Song Shijun was the son of the mayor, Zhang Xian was the second heir of Zhang Enterprises, so an and so forth… All of these people were the most prominent people belonging to the most elite families.

The party of hunks and gorgeous ladies gathered together outside the school gates was a sight to behold.

With Shangde High's majestic school gates as a background to the mix, it was easy for passersby to unknowingly assume this to be a filming of the Chinese version of The Heirs!

However, everyone was feeling deeply puzzled over something.

Logically speaking, someone as insignificant as Mu Xiaoxiao shouldn't be worthy of walking with them, and even if she was, shouldn't she be following them from behind?

Why was she standing right in the middle!

It was even more shocking that Yin Shaojie stood to her left and Han Qiqing stood on her right. Han Qiqing was holding onto Mu Xiaoxiao's arm affectionately, and Song Shijun even walked past Yin Shaojie and took the initiative to converse with Mu Xiaoxiao, his face the picture of pleasantness.

What kind of situation was this?!

Seriously, what the heck was this all about?!

It was no surprise that the students who were present were all dumbfounded.

Song Shijun brushed his fringe aside playfully and basked in the attention of the crowd. He smiled and said teasingly, "This entrance of ours is one of a kind! I should have known and asked someone to record this down as a memento."

It was probably impossible for them to enact another one of these scenes in the future.

Han Qiqing laughed, "You don't have to worry about that. That's probably already taken care of by the crowd."

That was bound to happen naturally, and as expected, their entrance had already been recorded and proliferated throughout the entire school in a matter of minutes.

Mu Xiaoxiao didn't know whether to laugh or to cry at this. "Do such things warrant so much hype?"

Their whole entrance was imposingly grand and magnificent, and it felt a little uncomfortable to her.

Would she get punched if she said that she didn't want to walk together with them?

Yin Shaojie put a casual arm around her shoulders and had a teasing smile on his handsome face. "How do you feel about showing off your power and prestige? Are you satisfied now?" he asked

She was the only one in the history of Shangde who could enjoy such esteemed treatment.

However, this girl was still discontent!

Mu Xiaoxiao shrugged her shoulders. She actually didn't mind such treatment, but it was perhaps due to her family's habit of keeping a low profile that she never bragged about her status, even in America.

However… She gave Yin Shaojie a dazzling smile. "This feeling's actually not bad!"

It wouldn't be good to be unappreciative of his good intentions, would it?

However, she felt like she was about to drown in the envy, jealousy, and hatred directed towards her way by the surrounding girls.

When they were about to reach Year One's block, Mu Xiaoxiao clapped her hand to dismiss her entourage. "Alright, you may disperse! Let's gather again in the afternoon, and I'll treat you to some food then," she promised.

She felt that she should return the favor that they had done for her. She was at least aware of such etiquette.

Song Shijun smiled and said, "Since Great Mistress Mu is treating, I'll accept heartily! But just a word of caution: I don't eat cafeteria food, so let's head out to eat."

"Anything goes. I'll be heading to class now; we'll talk about this later."

Mu Xiaoxiao separated from her posse, waved goodbye at them, and entered Year One's block.

When she stepped into Year One's Class S, her classmates all turned to look at her, their gazes full of meaning.

Mu Xiaoxiao couldn't be bothered to probe into it and just went over to her seat and sat down.

Just then, Bai Meijiao walked into class, her face pale. She stared at Mu Xiaoxiao as though in a trance, having evidently witnessed the earlier scene at the school gates.
