LIS (LEGACY INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL)

Li Na and Min Young entered the school cafeteria but Min Young looked reluctant to enter the canteen, Li Na pulled her hand until she fully entered through the cafeteria. Initially, she had tricked her into entering the cafeteria using the excuse of escorting her into the cafeteria but the poor girl who has always avoided the cafeteria like a plague fell into her trap.

​​

She comes from a poor family so she doesn't have enough money to afford the cafeteria meals and she has always eaten her packed lunch that she always brings from her mother's food restaurant, the first time she tried entering the cafeteria using the meal money her mother saved up for her, she was cruelly bullied and humiliated by the other rich kids.

"Just come in, I will pay for you," Li Na persuaded, they were now standing behind the queue in front of the machine where they have to include their order and pay then the staff would package in a tray and place it in front of the counter.

"It's not about the money, I really don't want to use the cafeteria, I have my own home-cooked meal," Min Young argued while secretly struggling to release her hand from Li Na's grip but they had already gotten to the front of the machine.

"I promise, I will protect you if something happens, you are my only friend here, if you don't eat with me, I won't be able to eat," Li Na pleaded with a cutesy look on her face while she fluttered her lashes.

"But your brother is here..." they both turned to see her brother pressing his phone with his meal in front of him, she scoffed at the sight of him.

"Him....he doesn't act like we are twins in school but when we are at home, he remembers that his twin sister exists, so just please join me...I will make the order now,"

She tapped the screen and moved away from the machine, signalling Min Young to make her order but the poor girl didn't know what to have, the meals were all too expensive, finally, she managed to find less expensive meals so she quickly made the order, after Li Na swiped her meal card to pay for the order, she linked arms with her and walked to the counter.

The students noticed her presence in the cafeteria as soon as she walked away from the machine, they started pointing fingers at them and murmuring with mocking gazes on their faces, they couldn't believe that the scholarship girl actually dared to enter the cafeteria.

"Isn't that the scholarship girl, what is she doing here?"

"Impressive...trouble didn't find her but she decided to find trouble," Lucy remarked, following a scoff

"That new girl...she seems to be close to the scholarship girl," Cecillia Wang, the queen of elegance and the princess of the school remarked with an indifferent gaze in her eyes as she stared at Li Na, for some reason she didn't feel good about Li Na the minute she came into the class on her first day.

Li Jing noticed how they were all looking towards the duo direction and he also heard their comments, he felt irritated but he didn't want to get involved in it.

After getting their meals, they picked up their trays then they turned towards the hall where everyone was seated, Min Young shook seeing how many eyes were on them but Li Na didn't care to notice, she smiled at her brother seating at the corner of the cafeteria hall so she nudged Min Young to follow her to her brother's seat.

But she didn't notice the fearful look on the girl's face, she looked like she was going to drown in the sea of the many eyes looking at her, she clutched the tray tightly and lowered her head as she slowly took her steps, following behind Li Na.

Li Na passed by the table where Lucy and Cecelia Wang along with some other wealthy girls from prominent families were seated, they didn't bother with her but they waited for the scholarship girl to walk past the table.

Crash!

"Ah," she winced in pain, the hall suddenly became filled with laughter while they pointed fingers at the girl on the floor, Li Na stopped when she noticed that they were pointing behind her and the crash sound came from her back, she turned hurriedly.

She dropped the tray on one of the tables and hurried to the girl's side, she placed her hand on her shoulder with a worried look on her face.

"Are you alright?" the girl nodded then Li Na's eyes fell on the graze wound on her knee.

"You hurt your knee!" she exclaimed, she took the tissue on the floor which had fallen from her tray, she used it to dab the wound carefully, but the students scoffed at her caringness.

After cleaning the wound, she stood up with an angry gaze in her eyes, she looked to her side to see the one girl she hates, she looked down at her crossed leg then she realized what happened.

"Did you make her fall?" An Ke question angrily with her fiery gaze directed at Lucy.

"Oops! it seems like I mistakenly tripped our scholarship girl," she covered her mouth with her hand in feigned shock, then the other students started jesting again.

"Aiyaah, Lucy, you should have been more careful, who knows when next she would be able to order such meals, what if you made her miss a one time chance,"

"It's no big deal, it seems like our new classmate is very well capable of paying for her meals,"

"So you are saying that you unintentionally tripped her?" she balled her fist tightly, Li Jing was already seeing the need to get involved but he knows hat she can take care of herself even if it results into a fight.

"I am really sorry newbie, it seems like your money has gone to waste, why don't I give her back the meal she poured because of my carelessness," seeing the look on her face, Li Na could tell that she is about to do something really bad.

Lucy picked the bowl of broiled chicken stew on her own tray then she stretched it out towards Min Young who was still on the ground, the girl knew the danger in collecting it so she didn't dare accept it.

"Since you wouldn't take it from me then I can only...." her eyes turned sinister with an evil tilt on her lips, she slowly poured the broiled chicken stew on her head.

WOOHOOO!!!

The students hyped as they watched the stew flow from her hair down her face to her white top, the girl closed her eyes and inhaled her breath as the hot stew went down her body, Li Na froze on the spot, she couldn't believe what was happening.

"Are you crazy?!" she yelled as she pushed the bowl away from her hand but the entire content was now on Min Young's body the students started laughing and jesting aloud while they called the poor girl different names.

She felt the hot tears flow out of her eyes but she couldn't open her eyes.

Li Na quickly rushed to one of the tables and picked up the entire pack of the tissue on the table then she used it to wipe her face, she almost cried seeing the girl's face and body covered in the stew with her body smelling like chicken, she blamed herself inwardly but she still didn't feel that she was entirely wrong, even if she is a scholarship student, she still deserves to use the cafeteria.

After wiping the girls face, she (Min Young) opened her eyes making the tears freely flow out, Li Na dabbed the stew on her top but it has already been absorbed, she could only remove the pieces of chicken and vegetables, she angrily stood up and glared at Lucy with anger written on her face.

Right...this is what Li Jing fears, she will certainly lose her sanity.

She smiled broadly at Lucy who was still looking at her in the eye fearlessly.

"Is she crazy, why is she smiling like that?"

"She is totally creeping me out," the girl hugged her body.

She walked towards the counter and tapped on the machine, she swiped her meal card after tapping the machine then she glared back at them and walked towards the counter but they couldn't understand what she is up to, whatever it is, they hoped it will be more fun.

More fun than seeing a girl being bathed in broiled chicken stew.

The staffs at the counter were baffled seeing the order.

"Can I have my order?" Li Na asked seeing that they were still looking at her.

"Student, are you sure you didn't order the wrong meal" the woman at the counter couldn't help but ask.

"I am very sure, I ordered the entire pot of broiled chicken stew and stewed pork, I want both mixed into one big pot, I have already paid for it," She answered with an insane smile, the woman had no choice, she can't afford to offend these children from wealthy families so she did as she said and mixed the half pot of chicken stew with stewed pork.

Li Na went behind the counter to get her order which confused the students....
