BXBX NOVEL Chapter 30
The onlookers also didn’t know how to react when they saw this.
After a long time, Chen Jiali finally screamed, “Mu Anan!”
She raised her head, ready to attack Mu Anan, but Mu Anan quickly grabbed her wrist and yanked her towards an indoor garden fence and pinned her against it.
Chen Jiali’s body was forced against the fence, her upper body already bent over the indoor garden. She was only half standing, supported by her legs and Mu Anan’s grasp.
If Mu Anan let go of her, she would lose her balance.
This sudden development frightened the onlookers.
Previously in the classroom, Chen Jiali’s target, Chen Hua, had already been scared silly. She was just stunned on the spot now.
Chen Jiali screamed in panic, “Mu Anan, what are you doing!”
“Chen Jiali.”
Mu Anan said her name coldly. “I’m warning you for the last time. Don’t mess with Chen Hua! If you do this again, I’ll cripple you.”
“How dare you?”
“Try me!”
When Mu Anan looked at her closely, Chen Jiali saw the cold eyes hidden behind her glasses for the first time. Her heart tightened and fear crept up.
For a moment, Chen Jiali was speechless.
“An, Anan!”
Chen Hua finally snapped out of her daze and quickly went up to stop Mu Anan. “Anan, calm down.”
“Anan, let go, let go!”
“Anan, let go of her. She’s hurt.”
Mu Anan glanced at the panic-stricken Chen Hua and did not say anything more. She pulled Chen Jiali up and let her go.
Chen Jiali panted heavily as if she had just survived a disaster.
However, without the threat, she immediately revealed her true colors. She glared at Chen Hua and shouted, “Chen Hua, well done. You actually found someone to deal with me! Am I still your cousin? I’m telling you, this is not over yet. I’ll definitely find Grandpa, I’ll…”
“Go ahead!”
Mu Anan pulled Chen Hua behind her and stared coldly at Chen Jiali.
Chen Jiali’s legs trembled when she saw Mu Anan. She gritted her teeth and shut up. All she could do was glare at Chen Hua before she walked quickly toward the academic center.
Coward.
Mu Anan naturally had no respect for such a person.
Bullying the weak and fearing the strong, Chen Jiali only knew how to show her claws to the weak. Once she was faced with someone stronger than her, she immediately became a coward.
Jiang Feng was the same.
Mu Anan ignored Chen Jiali. When she turned around to talk to Chen Hua, she noticed that Chen Hua’s face was a little pale.
Mu Anan stepped forward and hugged Chen Hua. “It’s alright now.”
“Thank you, Anan.” Chen Hua sighed deeply.
Mu Anan ended the hug.
When Chen Hua looked up, she smiled and said, “You’re really brave. In the past, I’ve always thought of you as a quiet scholar who dared not cause trouble.”
Now, she realized that Mu Anan just didn’t want to cause trouble.
She had such a quiet personality but she stood up for her.
Chen Hua was worried about Chen Jiali taking revenge, but she was more consumed with the warmth of being protected by her friend.
Mu Anan only smiled.
She wasn’t used to such heartwarming moments, so she said, “Let’s go to class.”
Chen Hua nodded.
When the two of them stepped into the academic center, Chen Hua seemed to have thought of something and quickly asked, “Anan, are you free tonight?”
“What’s up?”
“My mother’s birthday is next week. I would like to buy her a gift later,” Chen Hua said.
Mu Anan agreed without thinking. “Sure.”
“Then let’s have dinner together after work, and then we go to the old street?” Chen Hua asked carefully. She then added, “My mother used to study history. She really likes those retro knickknacks.”
“Sure.”
Mu Anan agreed readily, and the two of them went upstairs.
When they were going upstairs, neither of them noticed Chen Jiali, who had left long ago, walking out from the darkness of the stairwell.
Her expression was hateful as she covered her face where Mu Anan had slapped her.
It still hurt.
Not only did her face hurt, but her dignity and reputation were all gone!
“Mu Anan!” Chen Jiali said through gritted teeth. “I will make you pay! Just you wait!”
She then took out her phone. “Have you started the preparation as I asked? I’m sure. I’m very sure! I’m going to kill her and make her regret she ever lived!”
…
The two classes in the morning went by peacefully.
Jiang Qin and Chen Jiali sat far away from Mu Anan and Chen Hua. The four of them didn’t speak. The people around them did discuss Mu Anan’s incident in the morning, but they didn’t dare to say anything.
No one would say anything anyway.
Because these two girls were only here for two days of classes. They wouldn’t be here tomorrow onwards.
As for the Huo Xian that Chen Hua mentioned, he never turned up.
Mu Anan heard Director Chang talking to Dr. Chen, something about Huo Xian being uncontactable.
However, Mu Anan did not pay much attention to it.
After all, it had nothing to do with her.
At noon, Mu Anan and Chen Hua went to the staff canteen for lunch.
Chen Hua stole several glances at Mu Anan during lunch.
It was obvious that she had something to say.
Mu Anan wanted to pretend that she didn’t notice and let Chen Hua speak when she was ready.
Chen Hua’s personality was like this.
She was soft and tended to overthink. She also suffered from decision paralysis.
But Mu Anan often indulged her.
However, Chen Hua still hadn’t said anything even when they were almost done eating.
Mu Anan had no choice but to speak first. “Do you have something on your mind?”
“Huh?”
Chen Hua was shocked momentarily before immediately denying it. “No, no…”
“No?”
“Yes.”
Chen Hua sighed and thought for a few seconds before saying, “Are you going to the on-call room for an afternoon nap after lunch?”
The hospital had given the interns access to their on-call rooms.
There were rooms for doctors and nurses who were on call, and nap rooms for those who were not on call.
As this hospital was big and it was significant enough for Jianglan City, the facilities were first-class.
“Do you need my help with something?” Mu Anan asked.
Chen Hua quickly shook her head. “N-no. I, I have something to do and have to go out.”
She was stuttering.
She obviously didn’t want anyone to know that she left the hospital at noon.
Mu Anan naturally didn’t probe. She just nodded and said, “Then I’ll go to the on-call room by myself after lunch.”
Mu Anan then lowered her head and continued eating.
Chen Hua was slightly surprised.
She hesitated for such a long time, afraid that Mu Anan would ask her why, but Mu Anan didn’t ask her anything.
However, after the initial surprise, Chen Hua heaved a sigh of relief.
If Mu Anan were to ask, she really didn’t know how to answer…
After lunch, Chen Hua walked out of the hospital while Mu Anan went to the on-call room to rest.
Mu Anan couldn’t sleep, so she played games on her phone.
However, the signal in the on-call room was really bad. Mu Anan simply went out to the balcony and played games with her headphones on.
One game after another, lunch break passed quickly.
When the alarm on her phone buzzed, Mu Anan logged out of the game and took off her headphones.
“I will do as you say but remember what you promised me.”
Mu Anan was putting away her phone when she heard Chen Hua’s impatient voice.
Mu Anan frowned and then she heard another sentence…
“Not only my brother, but also what I told you just now.”
“Okay! I’ll pass her the thing…”
Chen Hua said the rest of her sentence in a very low voice, so Mu Anan did not hear it clearly.
