A Big Shot’s Woman Is Wild and Fierce - Chapter 617:
Chapter 617: Personal Grudges Erupt at the Training Base
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Chu Yunxuan had a smile on her lips, but her eyes were extremely serious. This was her respect for Wen Xin, mixed with a bit of unspoken heartache.
She couldn’t imagine how difficult it must have been for Wen Xin to survive before. Chu Yunxuan had made up her mind that in the future, she would protect Wen Xin at all costs, even if it meant risking her life.
Mu Bei was shocked and didn’t know what to say. He still couldn’t believe it as he looked at Chu Yunxuan. “Wasn’t it Master Xi who brought Miss Wen to the Independent State for a vacation? How…”
“When you see your Master Xi, you’ll realize how absurd your thoughts are!”
Chu Yunxuan didn’t want to explain anything to Mu Bei. Given Mu Chengxi’s status in Mu Bei’s heart, her words would be pointless. It was better for Mu Bei to see it for himself.
Wen Xin was sitting outside the divination hall on a call with Tan Xingyue. She had been away from the training base for more than ten days, and the freshman military training should be about to end.
“Xinxin, what have you been up to these days? Your phone was unreachable.” Tan Xingyue had been unable to contact Wen Xin and felt uneasy.
“I had some things to take care of. How’s the military training? Is your body holding up well?”
Wen Xin sat lazily in her chair, her eyes always looking in Mu Chengxi’s direction. The clairvoyants didn’t allow her inside, so she had no idea what was happening there.
“I’m fine here. Liang Luoyu was here, but he suddenly received a call a week ago and left. Did he go to find you?”
Tan Xingyue sounded worried. She remembered that Liang Luoyu’s face didn’t look good when he left.
“I don’t know where he went. I’ll ask about it when I have time. Has anyone given you trouble since he left? If there’s any problem, go find Ou Jinzhi.”
Wen Xin knew that Ou Jinzhi would always be at the training base. He wasn’t just responsible for the military training but also for training new recruits, dealing with a lot every day.
“I’m fine. Don’t worry. My classmates are good to me. When are you coming back?”
Tan Xingyue didn’t want to talk about school matters, not wanting Wen Xin to worry about her.
“I’ll be back in a few days. If anything happens, let me know. Don’t just endure it, understand?”
Wen Xin knew Tan Xingyue’s character well. She didn’t want to cause trouble for Wen Xin, so she might endure some grievances at school, something Wen Xin could foresee.
“I got it. Don’t worry, I’ll take care of myself.” As Tan Xingyue finished speaking, the assembly whistle blew outside.
“Wen Xin, I have to go. We’ll talk later.”
Tan Xingyue hurriedly hung up the phone, put it in her pocket, grabbed her belt from the bed, and ran outside.
She didn’t notice anyone behind her, and the belt accidentally hit Jiang Linfei’s cheek, leaving a red mark.
Jiang Linfei’s first reaction was that Tan Xingyue had intentionally hit her with the belt. Never having suffered such humiliation, Jiang Linfei screamed immediately behind Tan Xingyue.
“Ah!”
Hearing Jiang Linfei’s scream, everyone stopped and looked in her direction, including Tan Xingyue, who had just run out of the dormitory.
Seeing Tan Xingyue’s innocent expression, the anger and pain on Jiang Linfei’s cheek made her lose her composure.
She rushed to Tan Xingyue and, without hesitation, slapped her hard on the face.
Tan Xingyue, holding her slapped cheek, looked at Jiang Linfei in confusion, not understanding why she suddenly hit her.
“Don’t give me that pitiful look! You disgusting fat pig, pretending to be innocent. You hit me with your belt, and now you’re acting all hurt!”
Jiang Linfei leaned close to Tan Xingyue, pointing at her burning cheek, and yelled.
Tan Xingyue, covering her numbing cheek, looked dazed. She had no idea when she had hit Jiang Linfei.
“I… I’m sorry. I really don’t know when I hit you. I… I’m sorry…”
Tan Xingyue felt wronged. From the first day of school, Jiang Linfei had been causing trouble for her. She had always tried to avoid direct confrontation but still couldn’t escape Jiang Linfei’s provocations.
“Sorry? Is that enough? Who are you trying to fool with that pitiful look? Don’t think that having Brother Luoyu’s protection lets you do whatever you want. Let me tell you…”
As she spoke, Jiang Linfei grabbed Tan Xingyue’s collar, raising her hand to hit her again.
“Stop! What do you think you’re doing?” A cold voice rang out from the hallway. It was Ou Jinzhi.
Hearing Ou Jinzhi’s voice, Jiang Linfei’s sense of superiority surged. She pushed Tan Xingyue aside and quickly walked to Ou Jinzhi.
“Brother-in-law, she hit me with her belt. Look at my swollen face!”
Jiang Linfei pointed to her red, swollen cheek, mixing anger with a sense of grievance, and started crying when she saw Ou Jinzhi.
Ou Jinzhi frowned at Jiang Linfei’s swollen cheek. He had initially thought she was just being a spoiled brat, bullying her classmates. But seeing her injury, he realized she was genuinely hurt.
“Both of you, come with me. Everyone else, assemble downstairs!”
Ou Jinzhi glanced at Tan Xingyue holding her cheek. He raised an eyebrow slightly, recognizing this girl as Liang Luoyu’s dear one.
“Come to the infirmary.” Ou Jinzhi decided to take the two girls to treat their injuries first before dealing with their issues.
“Brother-in-law, what do you mean? She hit me! Instead of standing up for me, you want to take her to the infirmary? Are you really my brother-in-law?”
Jiang Linfei couldn’t accept Ou Jinzhi’s attitude. She thought he should punish Tan Xingyue immediately to vent her anger. Instead, he seemed to be protecting Tan Xingyue, infuriating her.
