Main Office Building of East Campus, 12pm (This is a flashback).
"And that report came with evidence." His whispered sounds like devil, tempting her to do something. As the last word of his speech landed on her hearing, she took a step back, gaining her momentum, she launched a kick to him. Close enough to hit him, she stopped, obviously not wanting to give in into her feelings.
"Coward!" Not feeling afraid he might get beaten up, he scowled. Hit me hit me! I can't wait to have you expel from this campus! His wicked thoughts were destined to not be granted. She had guessed his true intention. It was just she needed something to vent her anger. Glancing around, she found her target; it was the announcement screen.
"Sorry to disappoint you..." She grinned, putting down her leg. Raising her left hand, a strong thrust came, passing his face. "You'll see me here until I graduate."
Crash! The announcement screen on seventh floor cracked, alarming the sirens. Different from the last time she fought, she learned to control her force, resulting in her injured left arm to be in better condition than her previous injured right arm.
"You!" He looked at her, disbelief.
Blood dripped on the floor. Her blood, not his. It indicated his plan was ruined."You can't frame me with this. Upset, huh? At most, I'll get suspended for vandalism." Smirking, she won. Cheating? That's a different story. I can retake the exam.
Mimicking his actions earlier, she went to whisper at him, "You can't fabricate this incident like you did on that day. I've been recording this the moment you started to talk to me."
"You little sh- ugrh! Just wait and see!" He ran off , knowing if he stays longer his gentleman mask might fall. He did not want to risk others to know of it.

Mansion of The James, 8pm."Did she get discharged today?" Earl knew his younger brother came back from the hospital. His composure seemed to be already calmed down.
"Yes. I sent her back." Eden replied, all the tense in his body gone when she told him the full story. It's truly not her fault. His hand, holding the fork mindlessly, thinking how to deal with that lecturer.
"So... what's still bothering you? I can't help you to let her go unpunished. According to the campus' rules, she violated it by damaging the campus properties. The least I can give is her for getting suspended for three days." Earl tried his best to appease him. Though it surprised me that she didn't hit that old man. He, himself had been getting suspicious with how that man conducted his actions. Not respectable for a lecturer should be.
"Who's she we're talking about here?" Both of them raised their heads, exchanging signals through eyes. Mr. and Mrs. James came down from upstairs, joining them for dinner.
"You two are talking about a girl?" Mrs. James continued to inquire. "Come on dear let's interrogate these two kids."
"All right all right. Boys, answer your mother." He ordered, granting her wish.
"It's his crush." Earl decided to let the cat out of the bag, feeling daggers were thrown by his younger brother. "Father, you know her."
"Earl!" Wait until you'd get your crush! I won't help you! Eden scoffed coldly. He cannot believe how easily his sibling betrayed him.
Mr. James chuckled, feeling amused that his youngest child was being bullied. "Now, I'm curious to know who she is."
"It's Lune Huang." Once again, it was Earl who let the cat out of the bag. I gave up. If you will reach into the fermented fish jar, you should just put your whole arm in. In Earl's opinion, Eden will kill him the moment he said that it was about his crush so he might as well finish telling details about her.
