Just as Lu Yichen expected, Mu Xiaoxiao couldn’t find the way to the basketball court. Initially, she had been following the signs along the road. However, Shangde High was simply too big and the signs too confusing for her that she inevitably got lost.
What’s more, she went in circles and had no idea where she was.
Mu Xiaoxiao recalled that Lu Yichen had told her to call him in case she got lost. As she was just about to call him, she saw from a distance several girls walking toward her direction.
It seemed embarrassing for her to call about being lost, so she decided to try asking for directions first.
The girls seemed to be looking for something as they glanced left and right.
Mu Xiaoxiao walked over and heard that they were discussing something and sounded rather displeased.
“Where could she be? The school is so big. Do we really have to look in every corner?”
“What choice do we have? We went to her class, and she wasn’t there. She must be too afraid to go back. We asked the security guard, and he said that he hasn’t seen her. That means that she’s still in school.”
“She must be hiding somewhere. Let’s hurry it up. When we find her, we’ll make sure she pays!”
Mu Xiaoxiao slowed her steps as she had a strange feeling. But she had already walked over, and the three girls were approaching her. Then, they met face to face.
“Uh…” she uttered before asking in a friendly manner, “do you know the way to the basketball court?”
The three girls stared at her. They scrutinized her appearance, and one of them asked, “You… You look like her! Are you Mu Xiaoxiao?”
Mu Xiaoxiao was startled.These girls are looking for me? Why are they looking for me?
They don’t look friendly. It couldn’t be anything good.
She smiled like a fool to feign innocence. “What? Mu Xiaoxiao? That’s not me. Are you looking for someone? I won’t bother you then…”
Why was she asking for trouble? She was mad at her own stupidity.
“Wait!” a girl called out. She narrowed her eyes as she looked at her and asked, “You were asking the way to the basketball court? Don’t you know the way to the basketball court?”
“Uh… I’m new here…”
Just as Mu Xiaoxiao said those words, she felt something was wrong.
Sure enough, the other girl exclaimed, “Yes! Mu Xiaoxiao is a new transfer student! She is Mu Xiaoxiao!”
“I’m not! I’m really not!”
Mu Xiaoxiao denied frantically. Seeing that the situation was going awry, she ran off!
“She is Mu Xiaoxiao! Catch her!” the three girls responded quickly and chased behind her.
Before she could run far, as she turned a corner, several other girls, who had probably heard the shouting appeared like fiends, ran towards her.
“Mu Xiaoxiao is here! Catch her! Don’t think you can run away!”
Mu Xiaoxiao gasped. Just how many people are looking for me?
Before she could think, a girl appeared from the side and wanted to grab her from behind. However, she was too forceful as she pushed Mu Xiaoxiao to the ground.
Fuc—
It hurts!!
Mu Xiaoxiao could feel a stabbing pain emanating from her palm, but she couldn’t care about it. The girls had almost caught up to her. The girl before her also looked like she was about to rip her apart. One could imagine the terrifying consequences that would await her if they were to catch her!
