He's My Fiancée ! : I Went Back To The Past and You !

Chapter 173: An Ultimatum

When Su She In looked up, she saw the same gentle smile that Xiao Yun had always worn and cried even worse. Feeling utterly guilty for doubting such a kind person.

"Don't cry. I understand your problem. Thank you for telling me before anything happens." Xiao Yun patted her head. "Who is this Senior Ji you mentioned?"

"Senior Ji Gu Na." Su She In elaborated between her cries. Xiao Yun's eyes deepened from the name that her junior gave.

Following Su She In's confession, Xiao Yun discussed a new plan with Xue Xiu Yong, Nie An, and Zhi Ling Ling. A plan to flip the whole plan. 

"Ji Gu Na?" Nie An rubbed her chin. "We should teach her some lesson!"

"But what should we do? Even if we tell the teacher no one would believe us and we don't have any evidence." Zhi Ling Ling pondered.

Nie An agreed. "Yes. If we tell the teacher, Ji Gu Na would be questioned immediately but we don't have any proof that could identify her as the bully."

"How about this... I will be the one to talk with her and work out something until she confesses. In the meantime, could you two help me with bringing the witness." Xue Xiu Yong and the two girls nodded, they quickly divide each work to each other.

Xue Xiu Yong set the groups of the overseer to follow them from behind, saying that he saw something suspicious and acted as though he didn't know what had occurred and coincidently stumbled upon the scene.

Nie An followed from behind and stopped suddenly to gain attention from the people in the group when Ji Gu Na made her confession.

Ji Gu Na blinked around to the people surrounding the spot and gasped. "T- This is..." she glanced to see Xue Xiu Yong looking at her with a disgusted expression and stumbled back to the ground. "I didn't... I-"

"I've heard everything." Xue Xiu Yong walked toward them, standing beside Xiao Yun. "Were you working with them since middle school?"

"N- No! I have been wronged." Ji Gu Na shouted in stutters with a blamed face but after hearing the whole confession, no one would want to side with her.

"Wronged?" Nie An chided. "Everyone has heard it straight from your mouth! Are you still saying that you were wronged? By who?"

"She! This b*tc- Xiao Yun! I wasn't the person who bullied her, she was the one who trapped me into saying this!" Ji Gu Na fumbled.

"Trapped you?! You said it by your own mouth that you were the one who placed the blades under her desk!" Nie An walked over to comfort Xiao Yun "Xiao Yun calmed down, don't cry anymore."

Whispers of the students came from behind, fueling the fire in a slight second. "That's the person who bullied Xiao Yun?"

"I heard she placed a cutter under Xiao Yun's desk!"

"How vile! What's the reason?"

"As you heard before. She got jealous because Xiao Yun and Xue Xiu Yong are good friends."

The teacher came to Ji Gu Na, his face expressed the words that he needed to say. "Ji Gu Na. I can't say anything else. I'm very disappointed with you. Go back to the hotel, we will talk about your punishment." He sighed.

"No!" Ji Gu Na stood up, her face had overwritten with anger. "I wasn't the one who did this! It isn't me!" She came toward Xue Xiu Yong and took his hand. "Xiu Yong, darling. You believe me, don't you?"

Xue Xiu Yong swept his eyes over Ji Gu Na with coldness. The accident that scarred him had stayed with him for over three years. Perhaps because it was a way for him to amend his guilt toward his friend that had to suffer, he was always gentle with women. Su She In said that Ji Gu Na would only threaten Xiao Yun for being overfriendly with him, but in that cliff, he was sure that she wouldn't hesitate to push her down just like how she did in middle school. This was the second time he wanted to slap a woman from the bottom of his heart.

"Don't touch me." His face twisted in anger as he swatted her hand away.

Ji Gu Na shocked to no avail, her face had lost all its color into pale paper-like color. Xiao Yun couldn't blame him for his anger. She had known that under Xue Xiu Yong's childish behavior he hid the darkness and anger in him. In her past life was he perhaps still suffering? She didn't know.

Xiao Yun walked over to the Hotel with the help of Nie An and suddenly felt Ji Gu Na marching toward them. Xiao Yun was quick to evade her crazy attack, but that wasn't the same as Nie An. She reached out her hand pulling Nie An to avoid her hand and braced herself to jumper and counter Ji Gu Na's inept attack.

"Don't touch her with your dirty hands." A silvery voice of anger echoed to Xiao Yun's ears along with the strong arm wrapping her waist from behind. His face was veiled in anger and worry as he saw Xiao Yun was about to collapse from being pushed by a foolish girl. 

He narrowed his eyes sharply, glaring at Ji Gu Na in icy animosity. In a single second, Wang Li Lei brought a cold winter to his surroundings. The hand that he capture gripped into the woman's hand tightened firmly without holding back, making Ji Gu Na to writhe in pain.

"Li Lei!" Xiao Yun called him but he was deep in his anger to hear anything else. Before Wang Li Lei break Ji Gu Na's hand into shatters, Xiao Yun cupped his cheek to forcefully tear his eyes from Ji Gu Na and called him again. "Li Lei! I'm alright! Look at me!"

The anger subsided from her eyes and when Ji Gu Na felt the grip on her hand loosen, she flopped down to the ground and clambered behind in fear. Wang Li Lei's black eyes were vacant and when anger filled them, it turned spine-chilling. He was a cold man vacant of feeling but there were only two feelings that he had for his entire life, one being pure outrage and second was his deep love for Xiao Yun. 

The headmaster followed from behind while huffing his breaths looking around to see students gathering around and whispered to the school vice president. "Tell everyone to leave now!" If Wang Li Lei was seen here and people begin to whisper gossip and instead angered him, he wouldn't be able to still have his school.

"U- uh. Right away!"  He shooed off everyone in haste and came back the moment they have all disappeared. 

The headmaster walked toward Wang Li Lei and rubbed his hands anxiously. "CEO Wang, the school promise to handle the problem. We will make sure not to fail your trust."

"I will wait for the news." Wang Li Lei replied briefly with unchanging indifference and bent his legs to wrap his arms over Xiao Yun to carry her. Xue Xiu Yong looking, Nie An, Zhi Ling Ling, and Zhuang Huan Wu froze still as they looking at the scene.

The headmaster breathed out in relief. Wang Li Lei wasn't the man to mess with. The word he said before wasn't a request or statement but an ultimatum. A warning that his anger wouldn't be satiated by a simple punishment from the school.

The forest had become breezy at night and cold wind enveloping the forest stirred the leafs. Xiao Yun shivered from the cold wind and felt Wang Li Lei walking a little faster to avoid Xiao Yun from catching a cold. A little while as they walked, Xiao Yun heard him talking.

"Are you hurt? I've warned you not to be reckless didn't I?" Wang Li Lei asked.

Xiao Yun nodded vigorously. "Li Lei, can you let me down? I promise I will not be reckless anymore, okay? That was an unseen mistake."

"No." Wang Li Lei rejected.

"I-  everyone will see me!" Xiao Yun subjected. If now she walked with Wang Li Lei while being carried on his arm, she would be too embarrassed to show herself to the next morning. 

"They will not." He firmly spoke. Xiao Yun turned around to see bodyguards lining up to shield them. Not far, Xiao Yun also spotted her two bodyguards lining.

"Since when did you brought them here?"

"This morning." Wang Li Lei replied briefly, striding languidly toward the elevator.

"And where are you bringing me to?" Wang Li Lei looked down with a little prickling cold.

"My room." Xiao Yun's heart thudded from his words and her cheeks flushed red. Clearly today she had misunderstood his intention of bringing her to his bedroom. Even though the hotel was luxurious, Wang Li Lei's room was on a different level than the rest. Crossing his legs Wang Li Lei looked down on the girl that sat on the floor with her hand hanging up to the sky. As soon as they entered the room, Wang Li Lei told her nothing but to raise her hand for a punishment. Feeling guilty, she did it down on the floor even though he didn't tell her to do so.

"You have been too reckless." he scolded but nevertheless his gentle tone could be heard. "Did you know what you did wrong?"

"I know... I didn't think much before doing anything." she sulked a little.

"I'm quite angry." Wang Li Lei said and saw the girl drooping her face even lower. Yesterday he was angry that all the time she had been keeping a secret and today, he saw the girl nearly harmed. Perhaps Xiao Yun didn't see it but at the time when Ji Gu Na rushed to her if she was unable to hold her balance her head would have hit a larger rock.

That woman who dared to try to hurt his beloved. He would make sure she would suffer something more than what she could ever felt. The woman was lucky that he wasn't the same person as he was in the past, if he was, he would have turned the woman into a nameless corpse.

That was how much he was angry at the moment but for the sake of the girl, he tamed down his anger.

"I know." Xiao Yun replied as Wang Li Lei had told her not to apologize, she could only repeat "I know" as a replacement for "I'm sorry".

"Come here." he patted the seat beside him. Scolding her wasn't something that he could do, he truthfully only told her to do that because she wasn't someone who could understand his anger and he doesn't want to show him his real self when he is angered. Xiao Yun put down her hand and walked over to him on the opposite edge of the couch.
