Chapter 1

May's weather, just like this vibrant youthful season, is neither cold nor hot—just right.

A City, South City.

Sheng Luo Middle School.

"President Sheng, our Sheng Luo's environment and management are the best among all schools in South City; the students here are very united and friendly, respecting the elderly and loving the young! Grade 1 Class 1 is the leading class of the first year, please come this way."

Vice Principal Lin walked beside a mature and steady man, his smile unceasing, his demeanor respectful.

This is the president of the Sheng family's Sheng Shi Group in A City, the school's investor!

As he knew it, President Sheng personally came this time for an inspection because his younger brother will come to study here later.

Thinking this over, Vice Principal Lin quickly led him to the door of Grade 1 Class 1.

It's just the start of class time, and many students are coming and going at the door of Class 1.

Vice Principal Lin smiled, squinting, and said, "President Sheng, this is Class 1; Class 1 is a class excelling in both academics and conduct, and the top student here far surpasses the second…"

"The vice principal's coming—stop fighting! Qin Sister, let's go back to class first—it's bad if the vice principal sees us!" A yellow‑haired student shouted, cutting off what he was about to say.

"Tch, what's the big deal? How dare a mere vice principal offend my Fu family?" The girl called Qin Sister, holding a utility knife, replied disdainfully.

"Mu Sister! Fu Qin has trained in taekwondo for four years—you can't beat her."

"Look at the blood flowing from your hand—just give in for now; wait for Wanwan Sister to come and we'll deal with her. Please go to the infirmary first…"

A girl with a high ponytail crouched down, staring anxiously at the girl sitting on the ground, silent.

Vice Principal Lin's smile froze; he realized what was happening and quickened his pace into the classroom, shouting, "What's going on! What's going on! Making a racket during class time!"

At that moment, a male student walked too fast and accidentally bumped into Vice Principal Lin, knocking off his wig.

Vice Principal Lin's head rang from the impact, but he had no time to pick up the wig on the floor.

He quickly walked forward.

A quick glance revealed a girl inside the classroom holding a knife, while another girl sat collapsed on the floor.

The collapsed girl had a conspicuous head of brown long hair; her lovely, pitiful, fair face—excessively delicate and pretty—bore a faint red mark.

Her arm was cut about two centimeters long, not deep, and bright red blood was flowing.

Some blood and dust had stained her white school uniform.

Beside her lay an overturned desk, books scattered everywhere, a scene of utter chaos.

The girl said nothing, only slightly lifting her head, her gaze icy as she surveyed the people around her.

Fu Qin heard the vice principal coming, the action of not confiscating (her) hand and returning to class; that heavily made-up face turned toward the girl in front of her, and she lifted her head arrogantly.

Seeing the coldness in her eyes, she chuckled softly, "Mu Youyu, you're lucky this time; I originally didn't want to hurt your arm, I wanted to slash your face. Who made you dodge? You even accidentally bumped into my knife! Next time I will definitely slash your face, not your arm."

Vice Principal Lin saw the injured girl was still the top of the grade, hearing this made him even more furious: "What are you saying! What's your name? Call your parents, who allowed you to bring a knife and hurt someone? Why didn't anyone report to the teacher? This matter will be handled by the police!"

Fu Qin put down the knife in her hand, arrogantly lifted her chin and looked at Vice Principal Lin.

"I am the young miss of the Fu family, ranked first among the four great noble families of A City; if I dislike someone and slap them a few times, what's it to you? Whether you call parents or report to police, as you wish—I doubt these people dare to do anything to me."

It is well known that the ranking of the four great noble families in A City is Fu, Sheng, Liu, Se.

Among them, the Fu family, occupying the top position, is illustrious and possesses overwhelming power and influence.

Moreover, this pampered young miss of the Fu family, Fu Qin, is renowned far and wide for her arrogant, willful, lawless behavior, and she even studied taekwondo for four years.

Fu Qin had just transferred into Class 10 of Grade 10 a week ago.

Class 10 can be called the most troublesome class in the whole school, gathering the Grade 10 students who rank at the bottom—those young masters and misses.

They have no interest in academics, but out of deference to Liu Wanwan of Class 1, Grade 10 and Feng Cen of Class 1, Grade 11, they rely on their family backgrounds to forcibly intervene in the handling of campus bullying incidents.

Thus, students on campus dare not easily cause trouble; consequently, even the students of Class 10, out of respect for them, refrain from misbehaving on campus.

Fu Qin is not afraid of Liu Wanwan or Feng Cen at all; she just sometimes has to give them a bit of face!

Nowadays Liu Wanwan is not at school, and Feng Cen of Grade 11 is occupied with the joint exam and cannot leave, so she naturally came to cause trouble for Mu Youyu.

Vice Principal Lin's face was grim; this matter, put bluntly, concerns life and death.

Besides, bullying students is no trivial matter; we cannot overlook school rules just because she is a miss of the Fu family!

Thinking this, his expression grew increasingly stern: "Fu classmate, you transferred here just a week ago and have already brought your Class 10 mates to cause trouble, even injuring the top of the grade..."

Fu Qin impatiently interrupted: "Top of the grade! So what if she's number one? I could make her disappear with a flick of my finger. I don't want to hear this now; if you want to call my parents, go ahead."

There is no major Mu family in A City; she also investigated Mu Youyu and found nothing.

She is just an ordinary person.

Now she is completely confident; even if she beats this person to a pulp this time, it's no big deal.

"You!" Vice Principal Lin was so angry he couldn't continue.

Mu Youyu stood up, brushed off the dust on her body, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly upward.

Fu Qin has disliked her since the first day of her transfer, and for six consecutive days she sent people to block her at the school gate.

For the first three days she took three days of sick leave, and for the next three days Liu Wanwan and Feng Cen protected her.

Liu Wanwan is the eldest miss of the Liu family, one of the four great noble families, and the sole heir of the Liu family.

And Feng Cen is the young miss of the Se family, the tyrant of Sheng Luo Academy.

They are all young misses of the four great noble families; Fu Qin had to give them some face, so she failed to block her for six days.

Today, Liu Wanwan asked for leave due to family matters, and Feng Cen is taking an exam.

Fu Qin simply gave up on her plan to block Mu Youyu at the school gate.

Taking advantage of the break between classes, she directly led a group of little lackeys and rushed into the classroom where Mu Youyu was to start a fight.

Thus the chaotic scene before us came to be.

"Vice Principal, you must stand up for our Mu sister!" the girl with a high ponytail said, her eyes moist, as she turned to face Vice Principal Lin.

"Student, rest assured, our school will investigate this matter thoroughly."

Vice Principal Lin faced the students of both classes and shouted angrily: "Everyone, return to your seats! Someone take Mu Youyu to the infirmary to treat her wound, and all of Fu Qin's group come to the office! Not a single participant in this incident may escape!"

Mu Youyu picked up the phone that had fallen to the ground, her voice slightly cold: "No need, Vice Principal, let's go to the office first, I'm fine."

"Mu Sis, let's go to the infirmary." The Gaomawei girl looked at Mu Youyu with tears in her eyes, pleading.

"I'm fine, don't worry." Mu Youyu whispered a reassurance.

After saying that, she turned her head to face the classroom door; her light-colored eyes flashed a hint of darkness as she turned, then it faded.

【Little treasures, look here, there's also the author's note later! (Give the little treasures a heads-up on what to avoid!)】

-At the beginning, the female lead isn't useless; she just can't beat Fu Qin, and she can't outnumber them in resistance.

-In the early stages, outsiders don't know her identity; the reason is explained later in the story. If you can't accept it, feel free to quit—no need to say more.

-This story mainly takes place in a noble academy; the female lead is not a mighty heroine! She's a pampered young lady from a wealthy conglomerate family, with several older brothers, having been spoiled and doted on since childhood.

-The male and female leads are childhood sweethearts who mutually pursue each other.

-There might be some awkward scenes (written quite a while ago……)! And then at the beginning, some people would refer to themselves as "this young master" or "this young lady," etc.

-There are really a lot of characters!! Many brothers, a small ensemble cast, side CP (if you're not into the BL warning, you can leave) also many; sometimes a bunch appear at once, with lots of introductions—these will all show up later, not all are useless characters. Little treasures, don't worry about getting confused; I'll introduce them one by one later!

-The writing is immature; perfectionists can give it a pass.

-If you see something in the warning that's your personal trigger or you can't accept, you can quit directly—no need to leave a comment (‑'◡'‑)ﾉ♥.

-You can check the synopsis; it says the female lead is soft and delicate!!! She likes to act as the pampered beloved; if you don't like this type, little treasures can quietly quit~

-The whole story is fictional, set in a virtual region; little treasures, don't try to map it onto reality~
