Chapter 156 - AN ARROW THAT PIERCED THEIR HEART (2/2)

Luo Yan wasn't interested with what the people around him thought.  He was interested though with what they just said.  That this 'Huang Wen' bore a grudge against his younger brother.  He didn't expect that the first person to openly antagonize him in this class was not someone who envied him or was jealous of his looks, it was someone who hated Luo Jin.

He blinked his big peach blossom eyes towards Huang Wen.  ”My family didn't pay the school.  I passed the exam, that's why I'm here.” He bit his lower lip and acted like someone who was trying to be strong but might cry at any second.  ”How could this brother think so badly of my family?  Did we wrong you in any way?”

Huang Wen stopped.  Looking at those watery peach blossom eyes, he felt like his heart was suddenly kicked hard.  He unexpectedly had an urge to comfort him.  Realizing that, his face turned red and he became even more annoyed.

He was not alone.  The students surrounding Luo Yan's desk also had the urge to comfort him, hug him, tell him that everything would be okay and that they were there to protect him.  They all glared at Huang Wen.

”Huang Wen, stop targeting Luo Yan.”

”That's right.  Don't be so mean.”

”What did Luo Yan ever do to you?”

”It's okay,” Luo Yan said, preventing the others from arguing with this Huang Wen.  He looked like someone who was bullied but still had to act strong so he wouldn't worry the people around him.  The heart of the students around him just softened even more.  He turned towards Huang Wen.  ”If this brother doesn't believe me, we can go to the chairman's office now.  We can go and ask him.  That way, we can clear your misunderstanding.” He stood up.  ”Shall we go now?”

Huang Wen didn't expect this turn of events.  He looked around and just noticed the condemning gaze of his classmates.  With just a few words, this kid managed to turn almost everyone against him.  He knew it.  Members of Luo family were really hateful.  He gritted his teeth and then stormed out of the classroom.

”S-should I follow him?” Luo Yan asked the people around him innocently.

”No.  Just let him be.”

”Yes.  He'll come back soon enough.”

”You don't need to pay him any attention.”

Luo Yan smiled, his already pretty face brightening even more.  ”Thank you everyone.”

Almost everyone had an urge to clutch their chest.  Just to make sure that an arrow didn't pierce their heart.

Luo Yan sat back to his seat and just secretly smiled.
