Chapter 325: Third Encounter (Part 2)
The girl looked frail and delicate, but her burst of power was way more intense than Lian Qingyang's. Lian Qingyang was stunned and guessed that the girl must know some martial arts and it must be quite good, but he never imagined that her skills would be much more formidable than he thought.
In a blink of an eye, all those men in black were taken down by her, left powerless to fight back.
When the girl made her move, her face looked underage and was filled with cold indifference, even her eyes emitted a chilling frost. If it wasn't seen with his own eyes, no one would believe that the girl who was eating chocolate on the tree and the girl beating up people here were the same person.
Those ten men, seeing the bad situation, scrambled and retreated.
"How's that, isn't big sister amazing?" The girl stood proudly in front of Lian Qingyang, her smile bright and her eyes shining with simplicity and innocence, looking like a girl unaware of the harshness of the world. Who would have thought, when she moves, she's uncompromising.
"Amazing, but if you want to be my big sister, aren't you a bit young?" Lian Qingyang finally got his spirits back, feeling much better. He supported himself up by the wall, wincing as he touched his beaten face, he muttered: "Ever heard of don't hit the face? My handsome face is almost ruined."
The girl looked at him and said, "It was ugly to begin with, now after being punched, even uglier."
Lian Qingyang blustered, "You're still saying that, if you had come down earlier to help, how would I have ended up beaten so badly?"
Since he grew up, he rarely got beaten so badly. Occasionally taking a hit only hurt momentarily, but his handsome face had never been struck like this.
"If you had called me big sister earlier, wouldn't I have come to help you?" she said with a smile.
Lian Qingyang remained silent, turned around, and stormed off angrily.
"Hey, can't you even say thank you?" The girl shouted at his retreating back.
Lian Qingyang didn't even turn his head back, he shouted, "Thanks!" You big-headed ghost.
If she had come down earlier, how could his face hurt so bad?
He rushed back to treat his face quickly, otherwise, he wouldn't be able to attend class tomorrow.
"Little brother, you better call me big sister next time." The girl shouted at Lian Qingyang.
Lian Qingyang stumbled a bit, almost tripping, he quickened his pace.
The girl covered her mouth and chuckled softly.

After breakfast, Tang Yue went to class with Zhang Tingyu and happened to see a girl helping an elderly man cross the street. The girl was dressed in a beige tracksuit, smiling with sweet dimples.
"That girl is so considerate," Zhang Tingyu remarked emotionally.
Tang Yue agreed, thinking if it were in the future, she might have to think twice if there were no witnesses or evidence...
The incident quickly passed, and Tang Yue asked, "Tingyu, how is Yu Zhaodi doing? Is she in your class?"
"Yes, she is in my class, she is very quiet and rarely speaks, but her academic performance is really good," Zhang Tingyu replied, liking Yu Zhaodi's quiet nature. When she sees her, she would greet her, but she wouldn't speak a word with other classmates.
"She must study very hard regularly," Tang Yue thought.
Once they entered the school, the two of them went their separate ways.
Tang Yue just sat down in the classroom when a girl beside her enthusiastically said, "Hello, can I sit here?"
"Sure." Tang Yue organized her books and looked up to see the girl beside her, wasn't this the girl who helped the old man cross the street?
"Is it you?" Tang Yue curiously asked, "Why haven't I seen you before?"
Having attended several classes, Tang Yue felt she should have recognized quite a few classmates by now. The girl in front of her looked innocent and naive; her smiling face made her easily believable. Such an outstanding girl, Tang Yue would have remembered her if she had seen her before.
But, she had no recollection of her at all in her mind.
"I transferred here today." The girl said with a beaming smile, her gaze sizing up Tang Yue. Even though she had seen photos, even though she had seen her from a distance before, being this close to Tang Yue, she couldn't help but marvel; heaven had truly favored Tang Yue.
Her features were extremely beautiful, those almond-shaped eyes sparkled brilliantly, and her voice was clear. Speaking unhurriedly, she made others feel refreshed like a gentle spring breeze.
Did Feng Zhi fall for her looks?
The girl muttered to herself, inwardly thinking that there are other women who are even more beautiful and charismatic than Tang Yue.
"Transferring right after the school year started?" Tang Yue found it incredible but didn't say much, introducing herself, "Hello, I'm Tang Yue."
"Bai Qing." The girl gave her name.
The teacher arrived, and during the class, Tang Yue felt somewhat sleepy as she already knew the material being taught; thus, the class seemed a bit dull.
Meanwhile, Bai Qing, with her little backpack which seemed to be packed with an endless supply of snacks – lollipops and chocolates – ate one after another, her mouth almost never stopping throughout the class.
After class, Bai Qing followed her all the way.
She followed her to the computer class. Tang Yue didn't notice until she sat down and found Bai Qing next to her. She asked, "Are you also taking this class?"
"Yes." Bai Qing nodded and listed her classes.
To Tang Yue's astonishment, Bai Qing's schedule was exactly the same as hers.
Tang Yue smiled and said nothing, but became more guarded toward Bai Qing. Perhaps it was just her imagination, but since meeting Bai Qing in the morning, and seeing her again in class as a transfer student, she always felt that Bai Qing was following her.
For several classes, Bai Qing was just there, even accompanying her to the bathroom.
Tang Yue noticed that Lian Qingyang, who loved playing games, was absent, which she found odd. Just last period he had been loudly suggesting they play games together, but now he wasn't at school.
After class, Tang Yue didn't see Bai Qing and let out a sigh of relief, chastising herself for overthinking. However, when she arrived home and saw Bai Qing squatting in front of her house, Tang Yue felt her intuition might have been right.
Even though Bai Qing provided a flawless explanation, claiming that this house belonged to her grandmother who had gone abroad, and that she just wanted to check on the place,
Tang Yue opened the door to let Bai Qing in, who acted as though she had visited many times before, matching all the details previously mentioned.
"Back then, grandma loved to tell us stories in this courtyard," Bai Qing said with a look of anticipation and nostalgia, "In the summer, grandma would set up a rocking chair, and we would sit on these chairs here, listening to grandma's stories."
