Chapter 7: You Broke My Ribs
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“If you don’t get up, I’ll scream!” Zheng Yuxun was both embarrassed and angry. After all, it was probably her first time being pressed down by a boy.

However, in the end, she was only a girl. She had little strength and was unable to push me away. This struggle made us even closer to each other.

“Don’t scream! I’ll get up right now!” I was shocked and tried my best to get up from her body. However, I could not gather enough strength. Just when I was about to get up, I fell back onto her body and pressed her down until she cried out in pain.

Fortunately, no one passed by this alley. Otherwise, everyone would think that I was doing something to her.

“You… you stinking hooligan! Get out of the way!” Zheng Yuxun’s face suddenly turned red, and her struggle intensified.

I also noticed why she was blushing. Fortunately, she had recovered some of her strength. She could only barely get off her body and used her strength to push me to the side. She was panting heavily.

Zheng Yuxun got up from the ground. Her face was flushed red. She came over and kicked me on the waist. “Stinking hooligan!”

I screamed and rolled on the ground with my hands on my waist.

In reality, her kick was not that strong. However, I was angry that she had hit me and kicked me. I was afraid that she would continue, so I deliberately pretended to be in great pain.

It was best if she was so scared that she did not dare to kick me again. Otherwise, if she kicked me again, or if she alarmed others and framed me in front of them, I would be finished!

As expected, Zheng Yuxun was shocked. She did not dare to kick me again. Instead, she said in shock, “You… What happened to you?”

I said in pain, “I think my ribs… were broken by the kick… It hurts…”

Zheng Yuxun was different from me. Her family was well-off. She was pampered and cared for. She did not have much experience in life. Although she was usually lively and acted arrogantly with everyone, she was actually a ‘typical ivory tower’ student.

She was scared out of her wits and panicked. “I… I didn’t do it on purpose. Who asked you to…”

I shouted even louder. “It hurts… It hurts so much! I want to go to the hospital. I want to call the police!”

I originally thought that I could scare her, but after Zheng Yuxun recovered from her shock, she calmed down slightly. She shouted, “Stop… stop it! So what if you’re injured? No one can prove that I kicked you!”

I was almost stumped by her. Fortunately, I looked up and saw a surveillance camera close to us. I immediately shouted, “You still want to deny it? There are surveillance cameras here… you… you can’t escape!”

Zheng Yuxun looked up and panicked, “You… you’re despicable!”

I cried out in pain, “You injured me, and… you still dare to say that I’m despicable! I… I’m not done with you! It hurts so much! I’m… I’m going to call the police!”

As I said that, I trembled as I touched my phone.

Zheng Yuxun could not take it anymore. She panicked and said, “Don’t! Don’t do this. I… I apologize to you, okay?”

If I called the police, they would think that she intentionally hurt someone, she would go to jail! By then, her life would be ruined!

That was the effect I wanted. I curled up on the ground for a while before I gradually suppressed the pain and said with difficulty, “Don’t you want me to be expelled? If… if worst comes to worst, we’ll all die together!”

Zheng Yuxun said in a panic, “No, no, no! I promise that I won’t say anything about your fighting!”

I said angrily, “I didn’t fight! I was beaten up!”

Zheng Yuxun quickly said, “Yes, yes, yes. I was wrong. You were beaten up. Please, don’t… don’t call the police. I admit my mistake, okay? I’m sorry, I was wrong!”

Looking at the usually arrogant and domineering Zheng Yuxun actually lowering her voice to me for the first time, I felt extremely happy.

“Alright… for the sake of being classmates, I won’t call the police for the time being.” I said with difficulty, “You can leave. I don’t want to see you again.”

“Really?! Thank you!” Zheng Yuxun was overjoyed and sprinted away as if she was running away from great danger.

I secretly heaved a sigh of relief and felt that it was ironic.

“Is this really my f*cking classmate? When she saw that I was injured, not only did she not send me to the hospital, she even wanted me to be expelled!”

After resting for a while, I felt my strength slowly recovering. I struggled to get up again. I leaned against the wall and walked back slowly.

When I reached home, I briefly examined my injuries. The bleeding had stopped. It should be an external injury.

It would be better to go to the hospital for a check-up. However, thinking that I was still in debt and did not have the money, I gritted my teeth and gave up on going to the hospital.

I slept until around three or four in the morning. The knocking on the door woke me up.

“Who is it?” I rubbed my sleepy eyes and opened the door.

“Zhang Lu! What happened to you last night?! “Lin Xiaoya was still wearing the nurse’s uniform that I had brought to her last night. She pushed me angrily.

While I stumbled backward, she followed me in and slammed the door behind her.

“Sister Xiaoya, I… I…” I stuttered, but I did not know what to say.

“I personally recommended you, but you’re the one who let me down! How can I show my face in front of Sister Hong in the future?! Tell me!” Lin Xiaoya angrily pushed me again.

The room was not very big. After being pushed, I immediately took two steps back and stumbled on the side of the bed. I fell backward and almost crushed the bed.

Lin Xiaoya was like a leopard. She did not even take off her shoes. She immediately stepped onto the bed and sat me down. A pair of jade-like hands slapped me. Why did you run?! You caused me to be scolded by Sister Hong! You really embarrassed me!”

I felt a little anxious from being beaten up. I suddenly straightened my back forced Lin Xiaoya to the left. She fell onto the bed in a sorry state!

I flipped over and pressed onto her.. I shouted, “Sister Xiaoya, please listen to my explanation!”
