Chapter 379: Chapter 380: Qu Huimin’s Competition Qualification Cancelled

Zhang Wu’s face turned livid, and he glared at Huimin Qu furiously, “Huimin Qu, stop spouting nonsense. Xu Ying and I have nothing to do with each other, don’t bite people like a mad dog, okay?”

“How is this nonsense,” she retorted, “your eyes are practically stuck to her, if it’s not liking, then what is it?

And you, Xu Ying, how can you be so shameless? You’re about to have a baby, why aren’t you staying at home to look after your husband and teach your children?

Instead, you go out and seduce other men,” Huimin Qu cursed angrily.

As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Ying raised her hand and slapped her across the face, “Huimin Qu, if you have nothing sensible to say then don’t speak.

I’m not the least bit interested in Zhang Wu.”

This was exactly what Huimin Qu was waiting for. Seeing her say it, she excitedly turned to Zhang Wu and said, “Did you hear that? She said she doesn’t like you.”

Zhang Wu’s face turned from pale to green, he turned his head to look at the surrounding classmates, wishing he could just find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

“Huimin, that’s too much. Zhang Wu and Xu Ying are just purely friends, how can your thoughts be so dirty?

Does it mean any girl who gets a bit close to Zhang Wu likes him, in your eyes?” Sun Youdi, cradling her books, passed by and witnessed the drama.

Fuming, she charged into the crowd, unleashing a barrage of criticism at Huimin Qu.

Upon seeing Sun Youdi, fiery anger flashed in Huimin Qu’s eyes, her lips quivered, and her chest heaved violently with rage.

“Sun Youdi, what are you, daring to talk back to me? Do you think Zhang Wu would ever like you? Look at yourself in the mirror and see, you’re dark and short, absolutely ugly.

A woman like you will never be wanted by anyone in this lifetime,” Huimin Qu snapped viciously at Sun Youdi.

Sun Youdi’s tears flowed down her cheeks, looking utterly heartbroken.

Zhang Wu furrowed his eyebrows, clenched his fists, hesitated for a moment then said angrily with complexity in his eyes, “Who says no one wants Sun Youdi? I want her.

From now on, she is my girlfriend.”

Tears filled Sun Youdi’s eyes as she turned her head in shock to look at Zhang Wu, guiltily saying, “Zhang Wu, you don’t have to do this, I, I’m not worthy of you.”

Watching her like this made Zhang Wu feel even more uncomfortable, he took her hand directly, firmly boosting her confidence, “I’m serious, from now on, you are my girlfriend.

Don’t care about what others think, you are kind and good-hearted, really.”

Sun Youdi sobbed uncontrollably, moved to tears.

Huimin Qu rolled her eyes, her body swayed and then with a tilt of her head, she collapsed entirely.

“Somebody fainted.”

“Someone help, someone has fainted.”

When Huimin Qu woke up again, she found herself in the hospital. She slowly opened her eyes, and Liu Suqin slapped her across the face angrily, “More trouble than you’re worth.

I told you to keep an eye on Zhang Wu, not to force him to go crazy with you.”

Now look, he chooses a country girl, and not even with you, it’s outright embarrassing to speak of.

Covering her face, full of rage, Huimin Qu glared at Liu Suqin and started cursing, “Aren’t you the same? Still have the nerve to scold me, at your age you still couldn’t marry Uncle Zhang.

Even if he stays single for a lifetime, he would not want to marry you. Have you ever looked at your own faults, and yet you have the audacity to stand here and scold me?”

This comment truly ignited the fury in Liu Suqin’s heart, her eyes blazing with anger. She grabbed a water glass from the table and splashed it on Huimin Qu’s face, “How dare you talk back to me? What are you but a tramp, if not for my help, could you have even gotten into this school?

If not for me, could you have won this competition, I could kill you, you wretch.” Liu Suqin grabbed Huimin Qu’s hair and began to pull fiercely.

Qu Huimin was crying out in pain.

“What are you doing? What’s going on here? This is a hospital; it needs to be quiet, not a place for fighting,” the nurse said, looking at the two with a strange expression.

It was clearly a patient and her family member, yet they were physically fighting so fiercely, which was really odd.

Liu Suqin’s face had been scratched several times by Qu Huimin, and she glared at her cousin, huffing as she grabbed her coat and stormed out the door.

As soon as she stepped outside, she ran into Bai Yushui, who had come to visit Qu Huimin.

Bai Yushui was startled to see Liu Suqin coming out and said anxiously, “Teacher Liu, hello.”

Liu Suqin, seeing Bai Yushui, instantly changed her expression and asked sharply, “How long have you been here? What did you hear?”

Bai Yushui’s gaze shifted evasively, “I just got here, I didn’t hear anything, Teacher Liu. Is Huimin okay?”

Liu Suqin stared at Bai Yushui for a while and then a sly smile appeared on her lips, “You’re smart, knowing what to say and what not to say.

You better keep your mouth shut, or I’ll have you thrown out of this school.”

Bai Yushui was terrified by her fierce look and nodded repeatedly, indicating he understood.

Only then did Liu Suqin leave the hospital with a huff. The moment she thought of what her cousin had said, her chest ached with anger.

She had just turned thirty this year and had been waiting for Zhang Jiujang, delaying marriage for him. This had always been a sore point for her, and now she was getting older. If Zhang Jiujang still refused to marry her, whom could she possibly find?

Furious, she returned to the school and upon entering the office, noticed something off about the way everyone looked at her.

Curious, Liu Suqin looked at a female colleague across from her and inquired, “What happened? Why is everyone looking at me like that?”

The female colleague, who also had a concerned heart, examined Liu Suqin and then said, “Is Qu Huimin your cousin?

The whole school is talking about you abusing your authority to leak this year’s foreign language competition questions to your cousin, allowing her to be the first to answer them, as if she had memorized them in advance.”

Liu Suqin’s back broke out in cold sweat when she heard this, and she tried to keep her composure as she angrily said, “Who is spreading these lies? Why would I do such a thing?

It’s slander!” she exclaimed, standing up to confront the rumormonger.

But she couldn’t find the person after asking around, as most of the school was talking about it.

Liu Suqin was summoned to the principal’s office that afternoon, where a meeting was held, and Liu Suqin was disciplined, and Qu Huimin’s qualification for the foreign language competition was revoked, replaced by a girl who had come fourth.

Qu Huimin heard the news as soon as she returned from the hospital.

She was furious, collapsed crying at the school gate, and eventually, her family took her home.

As Xu Ying was heading home from school, she happened to see Qu Huimin and sighed at the sight of her retreating figure.

Despite her good prospects and appearance, she stubbornly focused on Zhang Wu alone. Even though his father held a high office, he wasn’t the only child of a high-ranking official in the school.

The others weren’t lacking either. If she had pursued anyone else, it wouldn’t have ended like this.

“What are you thinking about?” Huo Chen sat in the car, rolled down the window, and called out to Xu Ying.

“You bought a car?” Xu Ying ran over to the small sedan eagerly.

Seeing this, Huo Chen quickly got out of the car and hurried over to her, supporting her, “Slow down, don’t hurt yourself.”

Xu Ying, eyes sparkling as she looked at the car, thought about how long it had been since she had driven fast since returning from the apocalypse.
