Chapter 43: Fighting Each Other
“So you have the ability to steal a man but no guts to admit it, huh?”
In the classroom, Gu Jiusheng had been chasing Lin Muxi for quite a while, but couldn’t catch her. Angry and out of breath, she cursed at her.
Lin Muxi, cornered, didn’t stop moving and kept mocking her back.
After all, even if she couldn’t win in strength against Gu Jiusheng, she definitely couldn’t lose when it came to arguing!
“What stealing a man? Mo Ziyang doesn’t even like you. You’re just being delusional, you idiot.”
“Say that again if you dare!”
“Gu Jiusheng, you’re just a shameless mistress!”
That line hit Gu Jiusheng right in the heart. Then suddenly— Bang!
“Sh*t…”
A water bottle flew across the classroom in an arc and hit Lin Muxi right on the head.
“Go on, say it again if you have the guts.”
Looking at Lin Muxi who got hit, Gu Jiusheng sneered, then grabbed something else nearby, ready to throw again.
“You crazy b*tch, just wait till Mo Ziyang comes back. You’re dead.”
Lin Muxi held her head in pain and threatened her back.
“Wait till he comes back? You should worry about yourself first.”
“Are you insane? I swear—”
Before Lin Muxi could finish, Gu Jiusheng picked up a dictionary from a desk.
With a whoosh it flew toward Lin Muxi.
If she hadn’t ducked in time, that dictionary wouldn’t just hit her head like the water bottle. It might have knocked her out cold.
The scene was so dangerous that even their classmates couldn’t just watch anymore.
They quickly tried to stop Gu Jiusheng, worried Lin Muxi would get hurt and things would get out of hand.
“What do you know? Shut up!”
Gu Jiusheng yelled, and instantly everyone went silent.
Some even left the classroom right away, afraid they’d become the next target.
Seeing Gu Jiusheng lose control, Lin Muxi felt helpless.
While dodging the things flying at her, she quickly thought of a plan.
Her hand touched the phone in her pocket.
Oh? Right, I still have my phone!
If she called Mo Ziyang right now, maybe she could stop this crazy woman.
Thinking this, Lin Muxi kept her distance from Gu Jiusheng while dialing Mo Ziyang’s number.
Beep… beep… beep…
Come on, pick up! Your good bro is about to lose her life here!
Lin Muxi screamed in her head, panicking.
“You b*tch, don’t run!”
Seeing Lin Muxi ignore her, Gu Jiusheng cursed again.
Then she stepped onto the desks and chairs, charging straight at Lin Muxi.
This time, Lin Muxi was too focused on her phone to react.
By the time she realized Gu Jiusheng was charging at her like a madwoman, it was already too late.
“Mistress, come die with me!”
Before Lin Muxi could run half a meter, she heard Gu Jiusheng’s voice behind her.
The next second, Gu Jiusheng tackled her to the ground. Both of them fell hard, and her phone slipped away, sliding under a desk.
“You crazy witch, let me go!”
Lin Muxi, who had been knocked down, tried to get up and grab her phone, but Gu Jiusheng held her tightly from behind and wouldn’t let go.
Because Gu Jiusheng was stronger, Lin Muxi couldn’t break free.
“Trying to run? Weren’t you so loud just now?”
Gu Jiusheng didn’t show mercy. Thinking about how Mo Ziyang had treated her earlier, she poured all her anger onto Lin Muxi.
And so, right there on the classroom floor, the two girls started fighting with each other.
Meanwhile, Lin Muxi’s phone, which had fallen under a desk, accidentally connected the call during their struggle.
At that time, Mo Ziyang had just finished handling the paperwork for Lin Muxi to live off-campus.
When he saw it was her calling, he thought she was rushing him to come back, so he answered.
But instead of Lin Muxi’s voice, he didn’t hear her at all.
Then, through the line, he suddenly heard a familiar voice.
“You… remember this, Mo Ziyang… I…”
“Keep going… you weakling… I…”
Although the words were broken and mixed with loud crashing noises like desks and chairs hitting each other, Mo Ziyang quickly recognized the first voice. His face turned serious with worry.
Damn… Gu Jiusheng must have gone there.
And worse, he had forgotten to take care of such an important person.
Not daring to waste any more time, Mo Ziyang grabbed the paperwork and rushed toward the classroom.
He didn’t need to guess, it was obvious the two girls were fighting.
And with Lin Muxi’s small body, there was no way she could beat Gu Jiusheng.
Back in the classroom—
Gu Jiusheng slammed a book down on Lin Muxi’s head.
Red blood instantly appeared on her hand and Lin Muxi’s forehead.
This shocked Gu Jiusheng.
She only wanted to scare Lin Muxi, not really hurt her.
If Mo Ziyang found out, she would be doomed.
But Lin Muxi, now desperate and furious, refused to stop.
Her face red from crying, tears rolling down, she clutched a book tightly, glaring at Gu Jiusheng.
“You… sob… go on… I’m not afraid of you…”
At that exact moment, Mo Ziyang arrived at the classroom door.
He saw Lin Muxi sitting in the middle of overturned desks and chairs, her head bleeding, her clothes a mess.
“Gu Jiusheng! Do you have a death wish?”
His heart burned with rage, but he didn’t hit her.
Instead, he quietly walked to Lin Muxi, picked up her phone, and gently lifted her into his arms.
His dark eyes stared coldly at Gu Jiusheng, who was also sitting on the floor.
“No… it’s not like that, Mo Ziyang, let me explain.”
Afraid he would hate her, Gu Jiusheng tried to defend herself.
“Heh, not like that? Then what is it like?”
Mo Ziyang sneered coldly at her.
“If you really think you’re innocent, we can check the security cameras. And trust me, I know exactly what happened.”
His sharp words made Gu Jiusheng freeze.
She knew her actions were serious. If he really checked the cameras, things would only get worse. And Mo Ziyang was never someone who only made empty threats.
Seeing her stunned into silence, Mo Ziyang showed no pity.
“If I ever see you do this again, be ready to end up in the hospital.”
With that, he carried Lin Muxi out of the classroom without looking back.
“You… why did you… come so late… sob…” Lin Muxi cried in his arms.
Hearing her trembling voice, Mo Ziyang’s heart ached deeply for the first time.
Especially when he saw her bleeding head, her little hands clutching his clothes tightly.
He felt an uncontrollable rush of guilt.
“I’m sorry… this was my mistake.”
He lowered his head, apologizing sincerely, his eyes full of regret.
“It hurts so much… it’s all your fault… and now my clothes are ruined too.”
Seeing Mo Ziyang like this, Lin Muxi didn’t know what to say.
Her tear-stained face turned slightly red with shyness.
After thinking for a moment, she buried her head in his chest, speaking in a soft, spoiled tone.
Even she didn’t understand why she was acting like this. Normally, as a “man,” she would never behave this way.
But seeing her bro rush in to protect her so bravely was just too handsome.
So in the end, Lin Muxi stopped overthinking.
She decided to simply follow her feelings.
Whatever made her feel safe and comfortable, she would allow it. After all, it was her bro.
Letting him take a little advantage wasn’t such a big deal.
