The Commander's Useless Wife Is Actually a Hidden Boss!-Chapter 113: I’m Sure, Xu Jinglan is My Friend
Chapter 113: Chapter 113: I’m Sure, Xu Jinglan is My Friend
Xia Youyou was beaming with joy, as if she were appreciating a classic opera performance.
Rather than stopping it, the other students in the cafeteria were cheering enthusiastically, clapping, and shouting encouragement to knock someone down.
This was the Military Academy, where strength reigned supreme.
If you lacked strength, being beaten would only earn you disdain and mockery; no one would sympathize with you.
These were the lessons Xia Youyou had learned from being beaten twice. It was different here than outside. Outside, she could just play the victim to win sympathy and countless people would stand by her, support her, and elevate her.
So, after coming here, that was what she did.
It had some effect against Lin Fu at first, but as soon as Lin Fu showed her brilliance, public opinion shifted immediately.
The second time she was beaten, those people not only failed to sympathize with her as the victim, they criticised her for tarnishing the reputation of the Military Goddess and wanted to strip her of her honors.
Through this ordeal, Xia Youyou had come to a realization.
Thus, she gathered a few strong helpers and lackeys specifically to fight for her and vent her anger, humiliating anyone who dared to provoke her. This way, she wouldn’t have to lift a finger, and it only served to highlight her esteemed status.
It was a triple win.
"Those two are masters of the arts major, sophomores, the strongest and most peculiar in their field," Ivan, like a know-it-all, informed Lin Fu in a low voice, "Your roommate has become troublesome, this time the Military Goddess learned her lesson and found the right approach."
"She came prepared."
Mervin pushed away his empty silver plate and wiped his mouth, having lost patience to watch any further, and remarked "A mutual slaughter" before walking away.
"Well... never mind."
The others also left one by one, leaving only Ivan, Anton, and Morton who stayed to chat and to watch the excitement with Lin Fu.
Lin Fu’s gaze was ice-cold as she stared at Xia Youyou, her eyes narrowing dangerously.
"Do you want to help?" Anton asked.
"Yes! Xu Jinglan is my friend," Lin Fu nodded earnestly.
"If she only knows how to cause trouble without the ability to handle it, then I advise you not to keep her as a friend," Anton’s words were ruthless and cold.
"Hm?"
"Don’t look at me like that," Anton shrugged seriously, "Do you think you joined our squad because you’re pretty? Because you’re cute, capable of serving us dishes?"
Lin Fu forced a smile, "Am I not pretty or cute?"
"Uh..."
Anton, always informal and prone to blather, was for once rendered speechless, prompting a snicker from the others.
"No, it’s not that. There are plenty of pretty people who can serve us, but we chose you, of course, for your strength, because you’ve earned our recognition. Do you understand? Friendship works the same way, it’s reciprocal."
After finishing, Anton considerately added, "Of course, the same applies to you joining us. If we spoke and acted without measure, were arrogant and brainless, not to mention lecherous, would you choose to join us? Probably not!"
"Cough cough... Anton, the lecher part didn’t need to be said."
"Oh! I forgot, we indeed have a lecher here," Anton suddenly realized.
Ivan solemnly patted Lin Fu on the shoulder like an elder brother, "Lin Fu, your roommate wasn’t chosen by you, but assigned by the school, so you shouldn’t turn a roommate into a friend."
"I understand."
Lin Fu was grateful for everyone’s kindness, but she had her own convictions.
"I’m sure, Xu Jinglan is my friend," Lin Fu said as she stood up resolutely and walked towards the corner.
Just then, a sudden change occurred. A heavy table flew slantwise, hitting people nearby who were dining. Fortunately, those who were hit managed to leap out just in time to avoid disaster.
And then the fight broke out.
No one expected Xu Jinglan to fight back, but it was clear to everyone that she was no match for those two.
