CHAPTER 311: CHAPTER 303: MIGHT MAKES RIGHT
Shangguan told He Sisi about Zhu Yunxiu’s act the next day, and Sisi was deeply moved. Having friends stand up for oneself is truly heartwarming, and she was lucky to have two such friends!
"Feifei, thank you so much!"
"Pot-wrapped meat!" Shangguan, still expressionless, added a glint of warmth in her eyes and then supplemented with "More of it!".
After spending enough time with Shangguan, Sisi had come to understand her way of speaking; the earlier comment meant that she should bring extra pot-wrapped meat next time, such an adorable food lover.
"Don’t worry about it!" Sisi assured her generously, patting her chest.
The corner of Shangguan’s mouth curved a bit more, showing she was very pleased with the mood.
The next day, Sisi indeed brought three lunchboxes full of aromatic and delicious pot-wrapped meat; she handed one directly to Shangguan, and the others were shared among the group.
Shangguan’s eyes lit up instantly, she dived in and started eating seriously. Everyone else only heard the sound of her meticulous chewing, as the meat in her lunchbox was rapidly diminishing. The others glanced at each other and quickly realized, grabbed their chopsticks, and started eating the two boxes of meat, almost matching Shangguan’s pace.
After everyone had their fill, their lips glistened with oil, and their eyes and brows expressed satisfaction, Lei Gang even dug out a toothpick from somewhere and started picking his teeth, looking completely at ease.
"What’s going on today? Why so much meat? Is it someone’s birthday?" Lei Gang asked.
Sisi replied with a smile, "You all are basking in the glow of Feifei and Yun Xiu today. This feast is to thank the two of them."
Then, Sisi went on to tell everyone about Shangguan’s heroic deed, but Zhu Yunxiu thought her narration wasn’t evocative enough and added colorfully on the side like a professional storyteller, making everyone burst into laughter.
"Ah man, you’re killing me! Feifei did good there. That’s the way to deal with such people, clean and decisive. I like that attitude, sis!" Lei Gang said, reaching out to pat Shangguan on the shoulder, with a look of approval.
However, Shangguan did not give him any face, swiftly dodged Lei Gang’s ’wolf claw,’ and said seriously, "In January, I’m the sister, and you’re the brother!"
After saying that, Shangguan felt it wasn’t enough to stimulate Lei Gang, so she patted his shoulder as if patting Da Hei, adding a "Good boy," which left Lei Gang utterly disheveled by the wind.
"Hahaha! Little brother! Gangzi, you’ve become the little bro now. Be good, okay? We’ll buy you candy later!" Tian Xinhua teased Lei Gang without any decency, and Wu Tianfang joined in with winks and laughter, unable to stop.
Lei Gang was a mixture of embarrassment and indignation, shooting Shangguan a hateful glare, thinking to himself, a man shouldn’t argue with women, and he’d let his wife take revenge for him later!
Everybody else: Denying till the end like a drowning duck. If you can’t beat her, just say it. It’s not something to lose face over! Besides, you get beaten by your wife at home often anyway, we’re all used to it.
Once Shangguan’s tomboy nature was unleashed, the cold and noble image of Black Rose vanished from everyone’s eyes. Now, her new nickname was "Lady Enforcer."
Shangguan’s principle of handling things was simple: Fists make the strongest argument. People who don’t listen or displease her got to ’talk’ to her fists.
While it’s violent, Sisi likes it!
Tang Anzhi later came looking for Sisi a couple more times. Once, he intercepted her at the classroom doorway, and another time, it was in the cafeteria. At that time, Tian Xinhua, Lei Gang, and the others were all present. As soon as Tang Anzhi approached, before Sisi even responded, Tian Xinhua stood up and positioned himself in front of her.
"Tian Xinhua, I need to speak with He Sisi about work-related matters," Tang Anzhi said with a smile. He and Tian Xinhua were about the same height, both around 180 cm, so they were able to look each other in the eye.
Tian Xinhua also smiled faintly, a cold light flashing in his eyes, "Sisi’s affairs are for me to decide. You can talk to me directly. May I ask what official business you have, Mr. Tang?"
Tang Anzhi wanted to speak with Sisi, but Sisi didn’t even look up, just continued to chat with the girl next to her. Helpless, he had no choice but to speak to Tian Xinhua, "Tian, you’re just He’s brother. Don’t you think it’s a bit too much to control He’s life like this?"
"As Sisi’s fiancé, it’s my responsibility to take care of certain ill-intentioned pests for her. It’s none of your business, Tang Anzhi. Don’t you think you’re overstepping?"
Tian Xinhua spoke indifferently, watching the changes in Tang Anzhi’s expression, feeling extremely pleased inside. Finally, he could publicly reveal his identity on campus. Before, when he was mistaken for Ah Nan’s brother, he felt awkward about it. Now, he felt much more at ease!
"Fiancé? Tian Xinhua, isn’t He Sisi your sister?" Tang Anzhi was greatly surprised, no longer able to maintain the smile on his face.
Tian Xinhua smirked coldly, "Who told you Sisi was my sister? Assuming too much. Let me tell you again, Sisi is my fiancée, Tian Xinhua’s fiancée. You, Tang Anzhi, better stop harassing Sisi from now on!"
Seeing that Sisi did not object, Tang Anzhi’s heart sank. The big cousin turned into a fiancé, which was really bad luck! In his heart, Tang Anzhi started to ponder whether or not to give up on Sisi, the White Rose. After much consideration, he still couldn’t bear to let go. This time, Tang Anzhi’s intentions toward Sisi weren’t just for fun, but with marriage in mind.
Of course, this action was definitely supported by his parents at home. Sisi’s background wasn’t a secret in the circles, and anyone who put in a bit of effort could find out.
When Tang Anzhi discovered that Sisi was actually the granddaughter of the legendary old fox, Yun Po Bi, his heart was moved. It wasn’t just Sisi’s beauty that touched him, but also the resources behind her. If he could marry Sisi and gain support from Mr. Yun, it wouldn’t be long before the Tang Family could reach the top of the pyramid.
With his mind made up, Tang Anzhi composed himself, managing a strained smile, "Tian Xinhua, you’ve misunderstood me. I was indeed looking for He Sisi for official business regarding the drama production of ’Thunderstorm.’"
Sisi spoke out, "Minister Tang, I have already made it clear last time. I have no interest in performing in a drama. Please do not come looking for me again!"
Tang Anzhi, not giving up, continued to persuade, "He, you..."
Lei Gang couldn’t help but interject, "Tang Anzhi, are you deaf? Didn’t you hear Sisi saying she’s not interested?"
Lei Gang and Tang Anzhi had grown up together and had been at odds since childhood. Later, Lei Gang went with his parents to Inner Mongolia, and they were separated for several years. Unexpectedly, fate brought the two together again.
Seeing that the situation here was attracting more and more attention, and more students were gathering around, Lei Gang didn’t want to say more and left with a resentful look at Tian Xinhua.
"Xinhua, this Tang guy is no good. You have to be careful around him."
Lei Gang was somewhat worried. Tang Anzhi’s affairs had long been no secret in the circles, and that was the reason Lei Gang looked down on him. It must be said that some second-generation kids at that time were still very pure; ones like Tang Zhi’an were an exception.
"I know. Tang Anzhi wouldn’t dare to make a move in broad daylight. Ah Nan, if Tang Anzhi comes looking for you again..." Tian Xinhua hadn’t finished his sentence when Shangguan spoke up, "Beat him up!"
Everyone burst into laughter at that moment. They had worried in vain. With Shangguan, such a female outlaw, by Sisi’s side, who would dare to mess with Sisi if they knew what was good for them?
