My Wife, The Ice Queen President

Chapter 157: Chapter 0157: Bullied Girl (Part 1)_1
 

The morning sunshine streamed through the dormitory window, illuminating the balcony.

Ye Yangyang climbed out of bed, changed out of her pajamas, and walked into the sunlight to wash up.

The dormitory was silent, inhabited by her alone. It was summer vacation, and all her roommates had gone home, leaving only her behind.

She hadn’t gone home. That place no longer resembled the home she remembered. Each visit left her feeling incredibly oppressed.

She preferred to stay in the dormitory, even if it meant being alone, in peace and quiet.

After washing her face, Ye Yangyang held a book and read aloud on the balcony for an hour before she began to head toward the canteen for breakfast.

After breakfast, she planned to make a trip to the book center to buy textbooks for the next semester, to catch up during the summer break. Then, during the next term, she could get ahead and boost her grades.

She didn’t consider herself very smart; all her achievements were earned through diligence.

She had barely stepped outside the school gate when a familiar voice called out from behind her.

“Yangyang, wait a minute.”

A tall, sunny young man caught up to her from behind and stood in front of her, flashing a brilliant smile.

“You’re really here. You don’t pick up your phone and you don’t reply to messages. Have you been avoiding me?” the handsome student hurriedly asked.

“Ruan Xiaobin, please stop looking for me,” said Ye Yangyang, stepping back a few paces and speaking softly.

“Why are you avoiding me?” Seeing that she consistently ignored him despite multiple attempts to approach her, Ruan Xiaobin couldn’t help but question her.

Speaking of Ruan Xiaobin’s name, within the entire high school division of First Middle School, there was no one who didn’t know it.

He was a study buff, handsome, and the president of the student council—a celebrity at school. Privately, countless girls liked him and secretly adored him; publicly, many pursued him, like Ye Tongtong, who was one of them.

Ruan Xiaobin didn’t like Ye Tongtong, finding her rich girl arrogance too predominant, her demeanor too proud, looking down on everything. He preferred Ye Yangyang, her purity, her calmness, her beauty. Her academic performance was similar to his own, always ranking at the top of the class, neck and neck with him.

Unfortunately, no matter how he pursued her, Ye Yangyang just rejected him.

Ye Yangyang was beautiful, but not indifferent like an ice-cold snow lotus; she was like the lotus in the pond beside her, visible everywhere, but only to be admired from a distance, not to be toyed with.

“Ruan Xiaobin, I’ve told you many times not to come looking for me,” Ye Yangyang said, her eyes red with urgency.

Even in her agitation, her voice was just as tender, her demeanor just as gentle.

“Yangyang…” Ruan Xiaobin took a step forward, wanting to grab her hand.

“Don’t come any closer.” After speaking, Ye Yangyang ran off.

Having walked only a few steps, she passed a familiar figure with a fierce look on his face.

Behind her stood three girls, all with unfriendly expressions.

“Ye Yangyang, stop right there.”

Seeing Ye Yangyang talking to Ruan Xiaobin, Ye Tongtong immediately became enraged, hurried forward, and blocked her path.

“I warned you just yesterday to stop pestering Ruan Xiaobin, and yet you treat my words as if they were nothing. Wasn’t yesterday’s beating enough for you?” Ye Tongtong said angrily.

“I’m not bothering him; he came to me,” Ye Yangyang instinctively stepped back and replied weakly.

“I don’t care about that. If Ruan Xiaobin is with you, it’s your fault,” Ye Tongtong shouted, pointing at her nose and saying, “Today, I’m not going to hit you. Just swear in front of me that you won’t deal with Ruan Xiaobin anymore, and say something offensive about your own wretched life, and I’ll let you off the hook.”

Ye Yangyang clenched her lips tightly, refusing to curse her own mother, something she could never bring herself to do.

“If you won’t say it, today we’ll throw you into the lotus pond. Don’t think you’ll be as lucky as yesterday to encounter a disciplinary teacher. It’s vacation time now, and no matter what we do to you, no one will come to stop us,” Ye Tongtong said viciously.

Ye Yangyang clenched her teeth, backed away a few steps, and declared resolutely, “I will not curse my mother.”

“Your mom was just a slut, if she had divorced my dad earlier, she wouldn’t have died so miserably,” Ye Tongtong cursed.

“My mom was a good person, your mom’s the slut, you are the ones who stole my dad, you are the ones who killed my mom, when my brother comes back, he definitely won’t let you off,” Ye Yangyang shouted loudly.

Seeing Ye Yangyang’s hysterical state, Ruan Xiaobin felt a pang in his heart, walked over, and stood in front of Ye Yangyang, urging, “Ye Tongtong, don’t do anything rash.”

“Ruan Xiaobin, get out of the way,” Ye Tongtong commanded.

“Tongtong, don’t go too far,” Ruan Xiaobin said.

“I’ll say it again, move,” Ye Tongtong’s voice rose, his eyes glaring fiercely at him, and he angrily said, “I’ll count to three, and if you don’t move, I’ll make sure you can’t come to school next semester, believe it or not?”

Ruan Xiaobin’s bravado instantly weakened, and he instinctively took two steps back.

He was just a child from a poor family, who had managed to get into this key high school; his family had already spent tens of thousands on this, hoping that he could get into a good university.

The Ye Family was a giant in Capital City, with wealth and connections that were unreachable for someone as poor as him; Ye Tongtong wanting to ruin him was like toying with an ant.

For a girl, to let his family down, he couldn’t do it.

With no other choice, he could only watch helplessly as his beloved girl was bullied.

“Ye Yangyang, see for yourself, in this world, there’s simply no one who can help you,” Ye Tongtong laughed triumphantly, his face twisting into a snarl. “The jewelry exhibition is tonight, and I don’t want her showing up at our family’s jewelry show. You three, go and ruin her face.”

The three girls behind him, their nails outstretched, laughed maliciously, step by step, getting closer.

Ruan Xiaobin’s fists clenched tightly, tears swirling in his eyes.

He really wanted to step in and help Yangyang, but he couldn’t.

He could only dejectedly lower his head.

Hearing that they wanted to disfigure her face, Ye Yangyang started in fright, quickly hurled the book in her hands at them, and swiftly ran towards the school gate.

“How dare you fight back, chase her, catch her,” Ye Tongtong ordered.

The three girls charged after her with menacing might.

Ye Yangyang was too frail to escape those bad students and was soon caught up with, tackled to the ground, and began to struggle.

“Ruin her face,” Ye Tongtong ordered loudly.

The three girls reached out with their nails, scratching towards her fair face that invoked envy.

Ye Yangyang kept her head down furiously, burying it into the grass, not letting them damage her face.

Tears flowed down incessantly.

…

At the school gate.

A car came to a stop.

Tang Ning got out of the car, pointed at the grand gate plaque, and proudly said, “Brother-in-law, this is the high school I attend, how about it, impressive, isn’t it?”

Ye Xiong glanced at it and nodded, “The school environment is nice; although it can’t compare to Boya High School, it’s still the second key high school in Capital City.”

“You actually know about Boya High School, that’s the best school in the entire Capital City, the students there are super freaks, every single one of them is a genius.”

How could he not recognize it, after all, he had graduated from that very school.

Just then, the three of them suddenly saw ahead on the grass, three girls pressing down on another girl, bullying her, their hands clawing at her face.
