Rebirth: She is Ready for a Counterattack!

Getting off the bus, Gu Xiaoqing struggled to carry the bag and walked towards the school.

She saw a black car parked at the school gate. Gu Xiaoqing didn’t recognize the brand or anything, and she couldn’t tell. In both her lifetimes combined, she never had any concept of car brands.

Many classmates were secretly eyeing the car.

Gu Xiaoqing didn’t understand what was so interesting to look at.

But she still took a glance; curiosity killed the cat, after all.

Inside the car, in the driver’s seat, sat a man in his twenties, very handsome, but with a cold expression that warded off strangers. His eyebrows were sharp as swords, his eyes large and spirited, lips slightly pressed, the corners of his mouth held a cold, unsmiling sternness.

Wearing a white shirt and black trousers, he looked very impressive, like some kind of cadre in a position of power.

Gu Xiaoqing stuck her tongue out inwardly.

Good-looking, just a bit cold, like a complete iceberg.

No idea whose brother or relative this person might be.

Either dropping someone off or picking someone up.

Just as she approached the car, before she could pass, the door suddenly opened, almost hitting Gu Xiaoqing.

Surprised by the sudden opening of the door, Gu Xiaoqing jumped in fright.

She jumped to the side, almost dropping the bag in her hands.

The person in the car got out, and a pair of black leather shoes stood right next to Gu Xiaoqing.

"Are you Gu Xiaoqing?"

A questioning tone, but the voice was deep and stern.

Gu Xiaoqing was taken aback, looked up, and asked, "Who are you?"

She didn’t recognize this person.

But there was something about his eyebrows and eyes that seemed familiar to her, could it be they really knew each other?

The man impatiently frowned, his eyes clearly scrutinizing her, then looked at Gu Xiaoqing with a thoroughly disdainful look.

He handed something to her.

"I am Fang Shaohan, Fang Shaonan’s brother. This is something he asked me to pass on to you."

The way he acted was really irritating.

Gu Xiaoqing’s first impression was that this person really didn’t like her, and was very disgusted by her.

Ha, being hated by someone who is more or less a stranger is a new record for her.

It was a package.

Gu Xiaoqing took it.

"Thank you."

Then she turned to leave.

Since the person clearly disliked her, there was no reason to stand there and wait for further disdain.

With people who don’t like her, Gu Xiaoqing’s principle is not to care.

"Stop!"

A stern voice from behind stopped Gu Xiaoqing in her tracks.

She had no choice but to turn around, she didn’t want to provoke this person, but that didn’t mean others wouldn’t want to provoke her.

Really, it’s not my fault.

I don’t know you at all.

Gu Xiaoqing was crying injustice in her heart.

She turned around to be met with a pair of eyes filled with sternness, looking at her with undisguised contempt and disdain, like she was a heap of trash.

This was the second time Gu Xiaoqing saw such an expression in the eyes of a stranger, a truly disheartening experience.

What did she do to deserve such disdain?

Gu Xiaoqing’s temper flared up as well.

Nobody treats others like this, especially between two strangers, regardless of who you are, or who’s brother you are, that has nothing to do with Gu Xiaoqing. This silent accusation and insult made her want to hit someone.

Unfortunately, she knew from looking at her physique that she was no match. If it really came to a fight, she would likely be the one getting beaten up.

Gu Xiaoqing didn’t let anger cloud her judgment.

"May I ask if there’s anything else?"

Gu Xiaoqing’s tone carried a silent coldness and protest.

When others don’t show you a good face, how can you expect to coexist peacefully?

Fang Shaohan clearly didn’t expect Gu Xiaoqing to react this way, a hint of curiosity sparked in his eyes.

With a cold voice, he said, "Did your parents not teach you, when you say thank you to others, you should do so sincerely, looking them in the eye? Your perfunctory thank you, in my opinion, is nothing but an insincere provocation."

This person really knows how to find fault.

That was Gu Xiaoqing’s first impression.

Impressive!

If she wasn’t the one being nitpicked, Gu Xiaoqing might have given this person a thumbs up.

He’s damn good at it.

Gu Xiaoqing took a deep breath and said calmly, "Fang Shaohan, hello, regardless of what you are to Fang Shaonan, it doesn’t mean you can insult people. My parents taught me well. At least they taught me that when faced with someone who holds me in disdain and contempt, there’s no need to show them respect, and if I haven’t slapped them, that’s already giving Fang Shaonan a lot of face."

This time, Gu Xiaoqing held Fang Shaohan’s gaze as she said this word by word, and clearly saw Fang Shaohan’s deep black eyes narrow slightly, then quickly relax, revealing an odd expression.

No matter what it meant, Gu Xiaoqing didn’t care to find out.

Becoming enemies with a stranger, this kind of plot should belong in a movie, right?

Gu Xiaoqing was truly confused.

Fang Shaohan curled his lips, the slightly curved angle felt less like a smile and more like a threat.

"Very well, I didn’t expect your tongue to be sharper than I thought. It seems my foolish brother being so infatuated has its reasons."

The implication in his words was far from kind.

Gu Xiaoqing was furious.

This person has a sharp tongue.

She took a fierce step forward, but no matter how imposing she was, the other person didn’t take a single step back, not giving Gu Xiaoqing the room she hoped for.

Instead, it brought them closer, so close it seemed almost ambiguous from a distance, their auras clashing at close quarters, though merely a duel of glances and breaths.

Gu Xiaoqing tried her best not to let her breathing become erratic, not to let the clear and crisp aura of the man before her disrupt her rhythm, maintaining a rational facade.

"Fang Shaohan, you should apologize to me. Your age should be past the point of being reckless like Fang Shaonan. Such irresponsible malicious speculation, is that what a grown-up does? At least if you’re going to convict someone, you must have convincing evidence. Reckless accusations, is that the professional ethics a soldier should have?"

Gu Xiaoqing remembered Fang Shaonan saying that both his brothers were in the military, and were officers at that.

So Gu Xiaoqing couldn’t let anyone slap a label on her so casually.

Around them, many fellow students passing by started looking at the scene oddly, stirring imaginations.

Yet only the two parties involved knew just how tense things were between them.

Fang Shaohan loosened his lips, revealing the first smile of the day, but the words that followed were sharp as spikes.

"Isn’t the thing in your hand evidence? Stay away from my brother and my family. They may be deceived by you, but I see your true nature clearly. If you truly want nothing, then stay away from my family, that’s the real way to earn respect." (To be continued.
