Chapter 80 Bullying
“Where is the old library?” An Xiulan scratched her head as she found herself lost in the hallways of school once again. She had received a message from her tutor who had asked her to meet inside the Old Library.
“I should have asked Qiao Wei, Mona or Song Ci to show me the way,” An Xiulan muttered when she realised that she didn’t know the way back to her class. At this moment, she didn’t know whether to cry or laugh.
“What do I do now?” She asked herself once again.
“Look where you are going!” A feminine voice called out when she collided with another figure and both of them fell to the ground.
“Are you blind?! Or you can’t see with your eyes?” The girl shouted at An Xiulan.
“Isn’t it the same thing?” An Xiulan asked, blinking her big doe eyes. Doesn’t being blind mean not being able to see with eyes?.
“Excuse me?” The girl said in heavily accented English and glared at her.
“I said, isn’t being blind and not being able to see with your eyes a similar thing?” An Xiulan asked once again, genuinely concerned. Her Mandarin was not that strong and she was worried that with the slang and the addition in language that she didn’t know might be the reason why she didn’t know what the girl was trying to say.
Perhaps, modern people have looked for another way of not being able to see without being blind. Technology was advanced in this era; anything was possible.
When she was in America while recuperating, she met a girl called Julie and the next time she met the girl again, Julie had become Julian and when she asked the girl turned boy how it was possible, the answer she received was anything was possible with technology.
“Are you trying to make fun of me?” The girl asked as she huffed and puffed.
An Xiulan blinked her fanlike eyelashes and asked in an innocent voice, “Why would I do that?”
“You!” The girl pointed her finger at An Xiulan and said, “You are certainly making fun of me. You don’t know how I am! I can destroy you by raising my finger.”
“Are you a magician?” An Xiulan asked in amazement.
The girl grabbed An Xiulan’s shoulder and pushed her away in anger. “I won’t waste my time on you.”
An Xiulan’s head lightly hit the pillar as she saw the girl standing up while she was still on the floor.
“Lily, was bullying me not enough that you are hitting someone too?!” A girl screamed when she saw An Xiulan quietly sitting on the ground rubbing the bump on her head.
“You fatty, if you tell anyone what happened here, I will destroy both of you,”Lily Aka Zhou Liling said and sashayed away.
“Are you okay?” An Xiulan raised her eyes to look at the owner of the most beautiful voice she had ever heard. “She is a bully. She doesn’t care about anyone.”
An Xiulan was still staring at the chubby girl looking at her with eyes full of genuine concern. The girl’s curtain bangs were cut badly and she didn’t know why someone would cut hair like this. Not only this, the girl’s eyes were puffy and red as if she had cried a lot.
In the end, she just nodded her head.
“Did she cut your hair?” An Xiulan asked softly and the girl’s eyes reddened again. She patted her head lightly and lent her shoulder to the girl who suddenly couldn’t control her emotions.
“Lily is so ruthless,”The girl cried as she found someone who saw her pain for the first time, “She took everyone away from me. My mama left me because she couldn’t bear the torture of Lily’s mama who is now married to my father. I’m ugly, stupid and good for nothing. She bullies me every time but my father doesn’t care. I’m alone in this world.”
The girl’s tears touched An Xiulan’s most painful part of the heart. Somewhere both of them shared the same pain and story and perhaps this was the reason why she could resonate with someone else’s grief.
“You don’t have to be scared of her,”An n Xiulan softly said. “As long as you raise your voice against the injustice, you are invincible. How long are you going to keep quiet?”
She had made the mistake of keeping quiet all her life. Although she got a second chance at life, it still didn’t mean everyone else would get so.
The girl just stared at An Xiulan and then stood up wiping her tears, “I think i overshared. I hope you are fine.”
With this said, the girl disappeared once again and An Xiulan was in bewilderment as to what was wrong with this girl.
She had texted her tutor, telling him that she was returning back to class and if it was alright she would meet him the next day. Thankfully, he agreed instantly.
When she entered the class, she was once again fascinated by the gossipy atmosphere of the class. No matter what news or gossip was, it would reach the ears of Class Ten K firstly and then to others.
“I can’t believe that fatty bitch did this to our school flower, “Di Mo said. He was offended on the behalf of the victim. “How dare she! She is one of those evil girls who can’t see the beauty and success of other girls.”
“Seriously, I hate class Ten A even more now, “Yan Shan grumbled under his breath. “School flower is so kind, so beautiful and so perfect. How could someone like that fatty push our school flower to the doors of death?”
“Xiuxiu, do you hear the latest news?” Qiao Wei appeared as she looked at An Xiulan who was returning from outside.
An Xiulan shook her head. She didn’t even know what they were even talking about.
“School flower tried to commit suicide,”Qiao Wei said in a dramatic tone. “There is a girl in Class Ten A who always bullies school flower. Today school flower tried to commit suicide by drinking phenol. If not for the janitor, I wonder what would have happened to the poor girl. That fatty is too hateful.”
