Chapter 382: Chapter 382 Being Watched (3)_1

Tian Jinlei looked at these three guys who suddenly appeared, and felt nothing but dismay, thinking to himself, "Why did you choose this time to show up? Isn’t this intentionally causing trouble?"

However, Lin Shaowei and his group were oblivious to Tian Jinlei’s internal thoughts. Right now, they were each busily introducing themselves to Situ Xin.

"Hello, Situ Xin, we’re in the same class. My name is Dai Licheng, and I share a dormitory with Tian Jinlei." Dai Licheng was also considered a handsome guy. Usually confident among games and beauties, introducing himself to girls was a breeze for him, but today, as he faced Situ Xin, his palms sweated with nerves.

"Hello, I am Lin Shaowei, also in the same dormitory as Tian Jinlei."

"Hello, I am Li Zhenghao." After introducing themselves to Situ Xin, all three boys showed bashful expressions.

Tian Jinlei, Lin Shaowei, Dai Licheng, and Li Zhenghao were regarded by their classmates as the four most handsome boys in the class.

Since the beginning of the school year, quite a few girls in the class had taken a secret liking to these four.

As expected, when Situ Xin arrived in the classroom with the four most handsome guys from the class, it stirred up envy, jealousy, and resentment among many of the girls.

"I knew she has the face of a seductress, always out to ensnare people," Situ Xin heard the same sharp and biting voice as yesterday, and she knew that it was the same girl who had cursed her.

Although Situ Xin didn’t want to stoop to her level, she wasn’t someone who would allow others to bully her without response. Her face bore a smile, but this smile did not reach her eyes as she looked at the girl who kept insulting her. "Classmate, please watch your words. If I hear another curse from you, I won’t hesitate to personally ensure you’re expelled from this school."

Accompanying Situ Xin’s warning, Baibai, who had been dozing in Situ Xin’s arms, also opened his tiger eyes, stretched out his paws, and showed off his impressive claws to the girl.

"Who do you think you are? Do you think you can actually have me expelled just by saying so?" The girl was startled by Situ Xin’s imposing aura, and it took her a while to snap back to reality.

"Whether or not I have the ability, you’re welcome to test it. Oh, and by the way, what I dislike the most are those who scheme behind others’ backs and use them as pawns," Situ Xin said, glancing at the doll-faced girl sitting next to the sharp-tongued girl.

The doll-faced girl’s complexion paled, and she quickly averted her eyes from Situ Xin.

After delivering her statement, Situ Xin didn’t pay attention to Tian Jinlei and the others’ expressions; she found a seat and sat down.

But as soon as she sat down, she heard Tian Jinlei say, "Liu Zihan, I don’t want to hear you maliciously cursing others again. If there’s a next time, Situ Xin won’t need to act—I will personally deal with it." When Tian Jinlei spoke, he lost the smile on his face and assumed a demeanor unlike his usual one.

The change in Tian Jinlei’s aura caught Situ Xin’s interest. She raised an eyebrow and went back to her own business. Still, she mentally noted Tian Jinlei as a person of significance.

"Jinlei, you..." Liu Zihan looked at Tian Jinlei in disbelief, her face devoid of any smile. She could never have imagined that Tian Jinlei would speak to her like that for a woman he only met a day ago.

Aware that Liu Zihan had often badmouthed the girls around Tian Jinlei, and only when she went too far would Tian Jinlei step in and give her a nonchalant reprimand. But never before, like today, had he so seriously warned her.

Not only Liu Zihan, but even the doll-faced Cao Mengqi looked rather displeased, casting deep glances at Tian Jinlei. However, Tian Jinlei paid her no heed and took a seat behind Situ Xin with his books, followed by Lin Shaowei and the others who sat down next to him.

"Situ Xin, I’m sorry that you’ve been involved because of me," Tian Jinlei’s attempted apology was cut short by Situ Xin.

"There’s no need for apologies," what Situ Xin didn’t say was that she wouldn’t take Liu Zihan’s words to heart. "But since you know her, you’d better tell her this is the only warning. If there is a next time, I won’t be polite. I’m not just saying this to scare her,"

"Okay, rest assured, there won’t be a next time," Tian Jinlei was usually amiable and smiling, seemingly easy to get along with, but those who knew him were aware that he was quite approachable when not angered. Yet, once he was truly upset, his methods were anything but lenient.

"Wow, Situ Xin, when you blew up just now, you really had the air of a queen," Dai Licheng was starry-eyed as he looked at Situ Xin.

"Yeah, I never imagined that Situ Xin could look so beautiful even when angry," Li Zhenghao chimed in. With these two clowns’ input, the atmosphere instantly shifted from tense to lively.

Although Murong Wanyu was in a hurry to get to class, she couldn’t stop thinking about the guy who had come to see Situ Xin earlier.

"No, I have to go and warn Xiao Muli and Yu Qihao," the more Murong Wanyu thought about it, the more she felt the need to inform Xiao Muli and Yu Qihao to be on guard. Otherwise, if Situ Xin were pursued by that guy, her own life would become difficult.

Thinking of Xiao Muli’s icy countenance and Yu Qihao’s superficial smile that didn’t reach his eyes, she shuddered involuntarily and resolved to call them using the phone number they had given her after class.

"The girl in the pink dress over there, please stand up and answer this question." While Murong Wanyu was distracted by Situ Xin’s issues, she suddenly felt a jab in her arm from the girl next to her.

Murong Wanyu, with a confused look in her eyes, turned towards the girl who had poked her. She was about to ask, "Why did you poke me?" when she heard the girl whisper, "Classmate, the teacher is calling on you to answer the question."
