Chapter 283 Just Say That You Are Scared
Before anyone could say anything, Shi Caihong rolled her eyes at Mei Xing and sneered, "Hah, just say that you are scared what are you pretending for?" Shi Caihong has always hated Mei Xing, even before she became friends with Tao Guotin. The reason was simple, Mei Xing was much prettier than Shi Caihong and her family was richer than the Shi family, though her friends treated her all the same even after befriending Mei Xing, Shi Caihong still felt that her importance in the group met a sudden decline ever since Mei Xing came to hang out with them.
What was more Mei Xing was a lot more elegant than her, her grades were good as well and she was treated really well by the teachers, she even knocked her out of the school's flower position just a few months after she was admitted to the school. If that wasn't all even Tao Guotin treated Mei Xing differently compared to her, whom he treated like she was a passing breeze the differences in their treatment were really different.
She has been looking for an opportunity to show off in front of Mei Xing for a very long time, now that the opportunity presented itself to her. How can she let it go just like that?
Li Na and Fan Ehuang exchanged a look with each other before, Li Na opened her mouth and said, " Hong Hong, don't be so rude. Look at Xing Xing's ankle, she really is hurt… do you want her to go inside the tomb with a twisted ankle, isn't it a little…"
" What are you talking about?" Unlike Li Na who was a soft-spoken girl, Shi Caihong was a lot more forceful, she immediately raised her voice and drowned Li Na's voice. " I am being too much? When we joined in this excavation, we all promised that we will go inside the tomb together and will come out together as well. Back then Mei Xing agreed as well, didn't she? And even though her ankle looks swollen it's not to the point that she can't walk, at most she can stay at the back of the group. Don't forget that we boasted quite a lot at the school, we need to take a group photograph inside and out of the tomb, if we don't do that then I am sure that the students will definitely make fun of us."
This time no one said anything because Shi Caihong was right. Before coming here, their group indeed boasted a lot in front of their classmates to the point that they might have as well called themselves ghostbusters, especially Li Yiqian. Now that such a situation have risen, they had no other choice but to look at Mei Xing with slightly sympathetic expressions on their faces.
" Caihong is right, Xing Xing," with a sheepish smile even Li Yiqian couldn't say anything against her. " We did promise to take this challenge together if you don't come with us then the challenge won't be completed and our classmates would make fun of us to the point that we wouldn't be able to raise our heads."
Shao Li Jun decided to take a much gentler approach as he said, " We are of course not worried about ourselves but you know it too Xing Xing, if you don't come with us then you will be called a coward by the rest of the classmates for the entire year, we are going to take college exams soon don't you think that it will be a very disturbing situation?"
Even Tao Guotin and Kong Kun didn't say anything, their group was famous in the school because they all did things like these and they were all used to being looked up to by the students as well. They didn't want to become a joke by breaking their streaks, so in the end, they didn't say anything but their stance was clear.
Mei Xing stared at her friends and panicked, before she transferred into this school she was often ostracised by her friends all because she was different. She didn't want to go through that again, in the end, she gritted her teeth and said, " Fine, I will come with you but I will stay at the back of the group and someone has to stay with me, I can't walk on my own." She deliberately ignored the bracelet that was stinging her skin to the point where she thought that her skin was going to be burned.
" I will stay with you," before anyone could say Tao Guotin stood up from the ground and wrapped his arm around Mei Xing's waist. " Since I am the leader of the group, I think I should take care of those who got injured under my care."
" And me too," before Shi Caihong could say anything, Kong Kun immediately raised his hand and hurried to Mei Xing's sides he wrapped his arm around Mei Xing's waist as well and said, " Xing Xing is taking this challenge for us even though she got hurt, I hope that no one has anything to say about this?"
His words were directed at Shi Caihong, who rolled her eyes but didn't say anything. " Let's just go, I need to sleep as well."
After saying so, she turned around and walked towards the entrance of the tomb, on the other hand, Shao Li Jun took a look at Mei Xing and then at Shi Caihong. After a little thought, he finally chased after Shi Caihong—- Mei Xing had the two school grass next to her, there was no need for him to stick his face in front of her. And even if he did stick his face in front of her, she might not take a look at him with Tao Guotin and Kong Kun.
So, instead of fawning at Mei Xing, he decisively decided to fawn at Shi Caihong, no one was next to her. At least she will take care of him, right? After all, he too was a rich second-generation heir even if he was not as good-looking as Tao Guotin and Kong Kun.
