Chapter 258: Moving Out 1

Furious and annoyed, Liu Hanxiang stomped her feet. She was also a lady born in an officer’s family, but her father did not have a high rank in court. Her father spent a lot of effort in getting her to the examination, so if she offended the teachers right now, she might fail the test. And if she failed the test, her whole family would blame her for this, and the daughters of her father’s concubines would stand out. Therefore, she should never risk offending the teachers of Saint College!

She shouted at her maid angrily and asked her to fetch the money.

Then she pa.s.sed the money to Li Yuanxiang unwillingly, who, on the other hand, did not accept it. She felt that getting a bag of money in this way did not seem proper.

Gu Chaoyan, however, stuffed the bag of money into Li Yuanxiang’s hands. “Just take it! They set you up and wasted a great deal of your time, you deserve it!”

Li Yuanxiang thought for a while before putting it away.

Seeing the problem solved, the teacher said with a slightly mild expression on his face, “Alright, go and get down to your own business.” He still sounded very stiff.

Then he left.

Gu Chaoyan left with Li Yuanxiang as well.

The remaining crowd kept whispering about Liu Hanxiang.

Liu Hanxiang stomped her feet, feeling rather annoyed.

After they were away from them and no one was around, Gu Chaoyan asked Li Yuanxiang, “What grudge do you have with Liu Hanxiang? Why did she try to set you up?” Having said this, Gu Chaoyan took out the old bag of money. “I took it off you. The person that b.u.mped into you must have put it on you. Anyway, you have to watch your steps when you are at Saint College from now on. You may get framed once again without even noticing it.”

Li Yuanxiang’s eyes widened at the sight of the purse, and an expression of disbelief hovered over her face.

She had thought that Liu Hanxiang lost the purse and subconsciously put the blame on her, seeing her wandering in front of her eyes. Unexpectedly, she did it on purpose!

A complicated expression hovered over Li Yuanxiang’s face. With her eyes on Gu Chaoyan, she threw herself down on her knees. “Thank you for saving me!” Only now did she realize that it had been Gu Chaoyan who saved her from being ruined by Liu Hanxiang’s trick.

Gu Chaoyan helped her up. “It is okay!”

“Liu Hanxiang....”Li Yuanxiang was about to say something when an expression of confusion covered her face.

Gu Chaoyan waved her hands.

Normally, there had to be something weird going on when Liu Hanxiang tried to set up Li Yuanxiang with such a complete plan on the first day of their arrival. However, judging from Li Yuanxiang’s expression, she could tell that the whole story must have been complicated.

She was not a nosy person, but she took out the purse just to remind Li Yuanxiang that she should watch her steps in case she got framed again.

She sighed. “Just be careful.”

Li Yuanxiang nodded seriously. Then they went to their own rooms respectively.

It was not until Gu Chaoyan found Sword One that she found out that the room arranged by Saint College was shared by two partic.i.p.ants. The room was relatively small, but she was not a particular person. As long as she was able to spend the night, then that would be fine.

Sword One had just finished sorting the luggage, and she even made some tea and pa.s.sed it to Gu Chaoyan when she arrived.

As Gu Chaoyan was drinking the tea, Sword One sighed. “Not sure who is going to be the other girl.”

She had just said these words, when Liu Hanxiang came in with her maid. Then she screamed at the sight of Gu Chaoyan!
