Feng Wu had given Huo Shan a signed agreement, and Huo Shan showed it to his classmates. “It’s written here that each class would come up with 1,000 students. You’ve all lost, right?
“If that’s the case, why are you asking me to fight? Can a signed agreement be changed so easily?
“Every student in Class D used to be in Class E before they passed the test, but now, 1,000 of you have all been defeated by one Class E student! Aren’t you ashamed of yourselves?”
The students of Class D were so embarrassed that they didn’t know what to say.
But Huo Shan was just getting started.
He shook the piece of paper and laughed at his classmates. “And that’s not all. You fought her in groups of three, five, ten, and even 45! Still, you weren’t her match! How can you bring yourself to say that it was unfair for you?!
“It was unfair for them! They’re a grade lower than you, and they put up with all your unreasonable requests, but you still lost so miserably! Do you have any shame at all? How could you make such requests?!”
“How were we supposed to know Feng Wu…” Wu Lingyue protested, thinking that she was important enough to speak.
But Huo Shan cut her off.
He glared at her.
“Wu Lingyue, you’re the ridiculous one! If you hadn’t thought so highly of yourself and made such a reckless move, all our classmates would never have gotten involved in this farce! You’re jealous of Feng Wu, and our class paid for your pride and narrow-mindedness!”
Wu Lingyue had never been so humiliated before and almost burst into tears.
“I, I just…” Wu Lingyue’s face was covered with tears. “Why should I be jealous of her? What has she got? I’m not jealous!”
She couldn’t understand why Huo Shan would take Feng Wu’s side.
Huo Shan smirked. “What has she got? She’s prettier and smarter than you! She’s also more talented and more capable! She’s better than you in every possible way! What? You don’t want to admit it? Then convince me otherwise!”
Wu Lingyue was so frustrated that she nearly fainted.
“You…” She couldn’t stop crying. Pointing at Huo Shan, she shouted like a mad person. “Why are you defending her? Are you in love with her?”
In love with Feng Wu?!
Huo Shan was scared out of his wits by that suggestion.
D*mn it!
Those words could get him killed! He knew he couldn’t be the only one here who knew about Feng Wu’s relationship with the crown prince, and if His Royal Highness heard such a rumor…
“I don’t want to die!”
Huo Shan glared at Wu Lingyue as though she was his archenemy.
Wu Lingyue couldn’t understand why Huo Shan was so angry and scared. Yes, he was genuinely frightened.
“I’m not in love with Feng Wu!” Huo Shan repeated, as if trying to convince someone else here. “I’m not! It’s true!”
Wu Lingyue smirked. “Then why are you so protective of her? Are you her errand boy?”
Errand boy? Huo Shan’s eyes lit up. “That’s right! I’m her errand boy! Do you have a problem with that?”
