The Ugly Girl Gained a Beauty Purchase System-Chapter 11: Make Friends

"Are you trying to get expelled, Young Master Zhou Zhou?"

The voice was cold beyond compare.

Zhou Zhou looked up upon hearing the voice to see the speaker.

Qi Shi was walking over, dressed in a male uniform of green rattan. The badges on his uniform glinted coldly with metal, clearly belonging to the student council president, which only he could wear. Qi Shi adjusted his gold wire-rimmed glasses, his expression cold as he looked at the group of three people.

Yan Xi smiled imperceptibly, a hint of warmth flashing through her eyes.

Pandora saw Yan Xi reveal an expression like this for the first time.

"Article 37 of the school rules states that bringing students from other schools into our school to disrupt order, and even less using physical or verbal violence against students, is prohibited." Qi Shi looked at the large group of young ladies surrounding Zhou Zhou and the expression on Yan Xi's face before directly blocking their way in the corridor.

"None of your business." Zhou Zhou said unpleasantly, directly pulling Yan Xi's hand to walk past Qi Shi.

"She's my girlfriend, give me some face, Zhou Zhou." At this moment Tu Qingluan also came over to intervene in the conversation between the two, and grabbed Yan Xi's other hand, confronting Zhou Zhou.

Good heavens, directly forcing the label of "girlfriend" onto Yan Xi.

???

Tu Qingluan's self perception is quite good, isn't it.

With Tu Qingluan and Qi Shi attacking from front and back, and Zhou Zhou surrounded by a large group of "senior sisters" with unkind expressions, and Yan Xi...

"So you're quite popular with others? Transfer student, both Student Council President Qi and Young Master Tu want to protect you?" Zhou Zhou viciously pinched Yan Xi's hand that he was dragging.

Damnit, he couldn't take her away now.

But he could understand why - with a face as flawless and beautiful as hers, Zhou Zhou scrutinized Yan Xi's face, without the slightest blemish, bewitchingly pretty.

But he could understand Tu Qingluan the playboy, Qi Shi was less understandable...

[More backup than I expected, I thought I'd have to use force to break through this time.] Yan Xi's hand was squeezed until the skin showed purplish bruises, but she didn't notice.

"But...do you think that if you escaped once you could escape a second time? Next time, it definitely won't be resolved so easily." Zhou Zhou looked at Yan Xi's cold yet gorgeous face, viciously pinching it, whispering a threat into her ear.

The two's distance instantly narrowed, appearing intimate yet oppressive...

In a flash they separated again, but their hands were still tightly clasped.

He had to give her some face, everyone here were genteel people, it wouldn't look good to make a scene over a new transfer girl.

Zhou Zhou had wanted to let go, there would be chances in the future - as long as Yan Xi was in this class, it was only a matter of time before he could settle scores. But how could Yan Xi give him that chance.

She was the first to speak:

"Student Council President Qi, I request that you intervene in Tu Qingluan and Zhou Zhou's campus violence against me. I believe you will not stand idly by, correct?"

Her voice sounded somewhat choked, her gaze fixed straight at Qi Shi, the corners of her eyes faintly red.

Quite the drama queen, implying things.

What?

Just pulling her hand, nothing had happened! When was there campus violence?

And Tu Qingluan was also confused. Blaming Zhou Zhou for campus violence was believable since he was a habitual offender, but how had he become a perpetrator of campus violence?

Putting on this act?

With the accusations clearly laid out, Zhou Zhou was starting to lose face.

"Campus violence? Any evidence?" Zhou Zhou also flared up.

Yan Xi suddenly smiled, forcefully struggling free of their grips on both her hands.

"Click, click" 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝑒𝔀𝓮𝘣𝘯𝘰𝘷𝑒𝓵.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Yan Xi took out her phone and snapped two photos of her wrists.

Oh, forgot to turn off the flash.

Everyone's gaze was drawn by the flash, focusing on the part framed by the phone.

"Evidence. I can go to the hospital for an examination of my injuries."

Yan Xi handed her phone to Qi Shi.

Everyone looked on in shock at the large blotches of purple and blue on Yan Xi's left and right wrists that she had just pulled free, the contrast making them look especially terrifying.

"Holy crap, psychos! Using that much force, were they trying to break her wrists?" Everyone else pointed and commented.

Zhou Zhou and Tu Qingluan were also shocked, they clearly hadn't used much force.

"There are surveillance cameras in the corridors, you can check as well. It's fine that I'm injured, I'm just worried there might be other students who could also..."

At this, Yan Xi seemed to choke up, not continuing.

Quite the consummate performance, implying things.

Damn, she was crafty.

Qi Shi picked up where she had left off, "I will report what happened with you two to the school. Yan Xi, go get your injuries treated first. You two..."

Considering the new transfer student's status here, as well as Zhou Zhou and Tu Qingluan's backgrounds, Qi Shi hesitated, then continued, "Your punishments will be handed down in a couple days."

Zhou Zhou and Tu Qingluan's expressions changed. Things were being reported up top.

"I clearly didn't use any force!" Zhou Zhou cursed, wanting to argue, grabbing his hair in frustration as he glared sharply at Yan Xi, looking like he wanted to step forward.

"Zhou Zhou, you still show no repentance." Qi Shi adjusted his glasses again, standing protectively in front of Yan Xi to block Zhou Zhou's line of sight.

The two's gazes clashed in midair for a long time, one icy cold, the other refusing to yield.

Stay calm. Zhou Zhou told himself three times internally, inhaling deeply.

He couldn't let his family keep nagging at him for causing trouble, Zhou Zhou's expression instantly turned unpleasant.

"You did that deliberately, didn't you, transfer student?" Zhou Zhou calmed himself for a bit before stepping forward, the intimidating interrogation forcing her back.

At least he wasn't grabbing her hand now.

The girl seemed frightened, involuntarily trembling, but still forced herself to calm down. In a hoarse voice she replied, "I didn't."

Her elegant brows and eyes were somewhat lost, but her good upbringing had her straightening her back even under the oppressive atmosphere, her injured wrists seeming especially glaring with the mood's influence.

"Add on another offense, Zhou Zhou threatening another student."

Tu Qingluan kept silent at the side, also looking unhappy. With things reported up top, more demerits would surely be docked from him.

Damn it all, getting implicated by Zhou Zhou this time. Although...

Tu Qingluan's gaze lingered on the injuries on Yan Xi's wrists, fingers repeatedly brushing over the earlier sensation - impossibly soft and delicate.

Such easy bruising? She really was a premium product.

[I didn't expect Qi Shi to actually come, has he taken a liking to you?] Pandora wondered.

[Just a transaction.]

What could move an arrogant scion of heaven?

Using alluring looks as an intermediary, benefits and desire were the eternal rose.

-------------

Two hours ago.

"I can help cripple Zhou Zhou for you."

Sunlight fell across the girl's face. The rose flowers outside the window looked fully ripe, their fragrance filling the room.

Qi Shi was organizing documents in the Political Education Office, ignoring her.

"The election in two years, don't you want it? Old Master Zhou won't just stand by, and there's also the matter with your father." Yan Xi said with a smile, tapping her finger on the table.

Hearing this, Qi Shi finally looked over seriously.

"If you can, come help me out later after school, it won't take up too much of your time, Student Council President Qi."

"And helping out students in need is also the student council president's duty, right? Student Council President Qi."
