Suddenly, a cool and urgent voice rang out from behind.
“Rao Jie!”
Everyone was taken aback; even though she wasn't the one being called, they all turned to look. There stood Wu Rong, casually dressed, appearing before the crowd.
Whispers began to ripple through the group of girls.
“Professor Wu, Professor Wu…”
“Why isn’t she wearing a swimsuit? I heard Professor Wu has trained in martial arts; her figure must be amazing. I really want to see!”
Amidst the murmurs of disappointment, Wu Rong's face was stiff, her gaze locked onto Rao Jie as she strode over with purpose, as if she were in a hurry.
“Make way, make way,” someone said softly, and those at the back of the crowd were nudged aside. Chang Fei was pushed forward.
Rao Jie sensed the commotion around her and felt a bit awkward, wondering if Wu Rong would compliment such a beauty. As she glanced toward the approaching Wu Rong, she found that his eyes were fixed intently on her.
It was as if those deep, affectionate eyes could see only her.
A strange sense of vanity stirred within Rao Jie. She wasn’t sure why Wu Rong was coming to find her, but his expression didn’t seem very pleasant.
Just as Wu Rong reached Rao Jie, Chang Fei was suddenly shoved from behind. Losing her balance, she stumbled toward Wu Rong in a delicate manner.
“Ah!”
Wu Rong instinctively tried to step aside, but with Stone Pillar blocking his path, he couldn’t completely avoid her. Chang Fei ended up pressing against his arm with her softest parts.
Wu Rong inhaled sharply, his brows furrowing as he felt the contact; every hair on his arm stood on end, and his face contorted with a mix of shock and anger.
Yet Chang Fei seemed oblivious to the situation, rubbing against him in an ambiguous manner while clinging to his stiff arm as if she had no bones at all, barely managing to steady herself.
However, once she regained her balance, she didn’t let go and turned to the people behind her with a flustered expression. “Stop pushing me!” she exclaimed before shyly adding, “Sorry, Wu…”
Before she could finish her sentence, Wu Rong forcefully shook off his arm with an expression of utter disgust.
“Next time you can’t stand properly, just fall to the ground! Falling onto someone else only causes trouble!”
Chang Fei was stunned in the face of Wu Rong, his expression gradually shifting from red to pale. Compared to the last time when he had taken the initiative to get close, this time Wu Rong seemed even more merciless. How could a man be like this?
The girls behind him were also intimidated by Wu Rong's terrifying aura, falling silent one by one.
Rao Jie kept her eyes downcast, not looking at them or offering any words of comfort.
Wu Rong was already in a bad mood, and encountering such a situation only worsened it.
Ye Ming, who had been approaching leisurely to enjoy the show, spotted the scene from a distance and hurried over to mediate.
"Wu Rong, don't you have something else to attend to?" Ye Ming suggested with a glance towards Rao Jie.
Wu Rong temporarily suppressed his anger. Without saying a word, he reached out and grabbed Rao Jie's arm, coldly commanding, "Come with me!"
Before Rao Jie could react, he pulled her along forcefully as they strode away.
The girls were left in shock, their expressions filled with exclamation marks.
Ye Ming quickly smiled and said, "Professor Wu has an urgent matter with Rao Jie..." Just as he was about to explain further, Chang Fei beside him suddenly burst into tears.
