Lin Fei was drenched from her head to her toe. Her warm brown hair was stuck to her face, she looked horrible. She knelt down on the ground, hugging her knees. Her face was pale. Her lips were pursed together and her body trembled from the cold. Even though it was not winter, the water that poured out from the hoses was cold.

Lin Fei's school jacket was missing, she wore only her white school shirt which had been torn. It was so soaking wet that the fabric had turned translucent, the shirt stuck to her body like second skin. The young girl's body was fully exposed and the physical frailty that Mo Li saw was horrifying.

​​

As if feeling Mo Li's eyes on her, Lin Fei slowly lifted her eyes among the shower of water. When their eyes met, Lin Fei's lips which were frozen purple curled into a smile at Mo Li.

Mo Li basically ran over and smacked the hose away from the girls. With a stern voice, she berated, "What are you people doing? Are you trying to kill her?! Stop right now!"

When the girls saw Mo Li, they were all stunned and they took several involuntarily steps back. Only one was the exception. She probably didn't know who Mo Li was. With a giggle, she walked towards Mo Li. "Do you know who our boss is? Go and mind your own business before we mind yours, leave! We're just teaching her a lesson that she needed, what does that has to do with you?"

Seeing Mo Li walk over, Lin Fei slowly crawled up from the ground. Her body swayed weakly. Her bunny-like eyes looked at Mo Li. She then smiled like she was trying to assure Mo Li that she was fine, despite her physical condition saying otherwise.

"If you don't want to get expelled, move out of the way." Mo Li shoved away the girl who blocked her. Mo Li helped Lin Fei up from the ground. Feeling the girl's shaking body, Mo Li frowned. "Are you alright?" Mo Li asked but she already knew the truth. From the temperature of Lin Fei's arm, Mo Li knew that Lin Fei was in real risk of hypothermia!

"I, I.. am fine… cough." Lin Fei coughed every time she spoke. Her thin body shook with her every word. Seeing the state that Lin Fei was in, Mo Li removed her school jacket and placed it around Lin Fei. "Just hang on a bit longer. My family driver will come to fetch me after school. You should come to my home and get changed before you go back. You can't walk back dripping wet like this, it'll be the death of you!"

Lin Fei kept her head lowered as she shied away from Mo Li. Her red rimmed eyes glowed with guile. It was an excitement from having her prey hooked. But her voice that came out was still soft and helpless. There was even an undertone of acceptance to it. "No! I don't want to ruin your uniform!"

Mo Li sighed and draped her jacket over the girl. Then she turned and walked away. The other girls immediately came to surround her as if not satisfied with her action.

"Where do you think you're going?"

"Why are you so nice to her? Don't tell me… you're gay?!"

"Have you not brought enough shame to Mo Family? Disgusting."

Mo Li looked at them in her usual detachedness. She turned her head slowly to take everyone present in, "A word of warning, even a cornered rabbit will know how to fight back."

Lin Fei, who had retreated to the shadow, was startled when she heard this. She didn't expect Mo Li to walk away, leaving the bad girls with just a verbal warning. In fact the girls didn't expect it themselves. From what they heard from their boss, Qin Lu, this Mo Li was extremely arrogant and brash.

However, after a few interactions, they realized that was probably not true. Unless she was truly angered, most of the time Mo Li would only strike back in self-defense. For example, Zhou Xi provoked Mo Li first; and Qin Lu was the one who initiated the challenge at the billiard shop. The girls didn't anticipate Mo Li to just walk away so they were stunned. This was different from what they expected, which was a fight.

…

As time approached the end of school, Mo Yun materialized at the school with the driver. The driver saw the box in Mo Yun's lap and he asked, "Young master, is that for the madam?"

"No, it's for Mo Li, she has been eyeing this for a long time." Mo Yun said casually.

The driver tapped on the steering wheel, and then smiled, "Young Master sure is a good brother."

Then he turned to the school gate. Mo Li was walking out but she had someone else following behind her.
