Chapter 8 - Chapter 009: Eyes Locked on Lou Xi, Leaving Her Nowhere to Hide

This was a fact that Lou Xi couldn't understand for a long time afterward—the person who shows weakness will always be cherished.

Originally, this small gust of seat-dust ended up turning into Lou Xi aggressively confronting Li Ruolan and Zhou Zichen.

The murmurs of pointing and whispering among the students in the library grew louder, yet they collectively sided with Zhou Zichen and Li Ruolan.

Since it had already come to this, if Lou Xi left now, it would be tantamount to confirming the label of bullying fellow students, leaving in disgrace.

Therefore, she had to stride forward with pride and chase them away decisively!

"Sorry, but Lu Lu and I have to sit here and study today. Please leave immediately," she stood in front of them, like a queen.

Li Ruolan was already packing her bag, feeling notably aggrieved.

Zhou Zichen, feeling extremely distressed, held her hand down, "We're not leaving, at worst we'll call the administrator over!"

"Go ahead, who's afraid of who!"

"Making a racket in the library, do you think this is a marketplace?" An authoritative voice suddenly cut through the noise, and its powerful presence rendered the library silent instantly.

Everyone turned toward the source of the voice, including Lou Xi.

In sight was a man dressed in a pure black suit, standing with a straight posture, his gaze cool, one hand tucked into his suit trousers. Just by standing there, he emanated an aura that dominated everyone.

Qin Mobai.

However, Lou Xi, upon seeing him, gave a dismissive snort.

A meddlesome man, what right did he have to say she was making a scene here?

Because Qin Mobai was handsome, exuding an extraordinary aura, news of his presence had spread around Nan University within one morning, and now everyone knew he was the new campus heartthrob, Young Master Qin.

And because of Young Master Qin's arrival, Li Ruolan's small face looked even more aggrieved. She softly said to Qin Mobai, "Young Master Qin, we know we were wrong, we'll leave now, so as not to disturb other students in the library."

Qin Mobai gave Li Ruolan a fleeting glance, with no emotion in his cold eyes.

When Li Ruolan looked up at Qin Mobai, her heart trembled; his distinct facial features, deep eyes, upright posture, along with his innate aristocratic air, made him stand out from the crowd.

With just a single glance, Qin Mobai left a profound impression on Li Ruolan's heart.

"Young Master Qin, we reserved this spot early with Ruolan, and it's Lou Xi who's being aggressive and forcing us to leave, the surrounding students can testify!" Zhou Zichen spoke angrily, determined to regain face in front of his new girlfriend.

Listening to their words, Qin Mobai's indifferent eyes remained emotionless.

He looked at Lou Xi, as everyone else explained, she said nothing.

Was it reluctance to explain, or were the two of them telling the truth?

"Xixi, why aren't you speaking?" Bai Lu tugged at Lou Xi's arm. Usually, she was so articulate, why was she at a loss for words now?

Lou Xi, in turn, held Bai Lu's hand, scoffing, though she was talking to Bai Lu, her gaze lingered on Qin Mobai.

"Let's leave, the library is originally a place for quiet study. Now some people have made it such a mess, it seems it's time to bring it to the principal's attention and rectify the study and school discipline."

Qin Mobai's expression darkened, his pitch-black eyes glimmered with cold light, fixing his gaze on Lou Xi, making her feel trapped.

In that instant, Lou Xi knew she was in hot water.
