"Help! help! I am being harassed here. Someone, please help me!" Jin Xiaoqi (Yang Zi's former name) shouted at the top of her lungs to the shock of the two girls being bullied. Seeing that her screams had attracted the attention of other students, she quickly grabbed one of the bully's hands who was within her arm's reach and sunk her teeth in it. The boy cried out in anguish, hitting her head to make her let go of his hand, but Yang Zi refused to let go.
"Hey, girls! stop staring and do something if you don't wish to get bullied again," Yang Zi had momentarily let go of the boy's hand, shouted at the two girls before she resumed biting him on the same spot again. Shui Shui and the other girl stood up to their feet and grabbed hold of the other boys' hands when they heard Yang Zi's words, but too bad they couldn't hold unto them for long since they were stronger than the girls. The three boys, Shui Shui and the other girl were holding onto took to their heels when they heard footsteps approaching, leaving the other boy at Yang Zi's mercy.
Yang Zi only released his hand when the teacher begged her to do so. It was after everyone left, with only the girls left that the other two girls thanked Yang Zi.
"Thank you so much for earlier. I really thought I was going home with a broken arm today but thank goodness you appeared just in time to save us from those rascals," Qing Shui said staring at Jin Xiaoqi with admiration.
"Me?" Jin Xiaoqi said, pointing at herself. "A powerless girl like me wouldn't have been able to take down four bullies all alone, so the credit goes to all three of us," Jin Xiaoqi replied, smiling. Her smile was so genuine to the point that Shui Shui would never forget the carefree Jin Xiaoqi before the tragedy eight years ago.
"I am Qing Shui and you?" Qing Shui said, stretching out her hand for a handshake.
"Jin Xiaoqi," Jin Xiaoqi said smiling as she shook Qing Shui's hand.
"I am Feng Ming. Thank you both for saving me. I can't talk for long since I have an appointment with my class teacher so I will be on my way now. Thank you once again," Feng Ming said before she hurried away.
"Jin Xiaoqi?" Qing Shui recited the name again. The name rang a bell in her memory, making her feel that she had heard the name before, "You are our school's top student!? You won a scholarship to this prestigious school of ours, right? Oh, not only you, your sister did it too!" Qing Shui said, dumbfounded. Despite the shock, she couldn't hide her excitement.
"I guess you are right," Jin Xiaoqi said shyly, smiling pleasantly at her. She didn't pick any jealousy from Qing Shui's words.
"Wow! I have heard so much about you. You are my idol. Your sense of justice, mischievousness, and humor is what I have been craving for. Can we be friends?" The excited Qing Shui said with admiration filled eyes. Jin Xiaoqi's eyes almost fell out of its sockets when she heard her words, because she wasn't expecting this from her. From head to toe all the accessories the girl was putting on screams, 'I am filthy rich', so she didn't expect such a girl to want to be friends with a poor wretched girl like her.
"I guess that was a bit straight forward, right?" Qing Shui said awkwardly as she scratched her hair, seeing the shocked expression on Jin Xiaoqi's face.
"No, no, you are not straightforward, your friendliness surprised me. This is my second year in high school but none of the rich kids here had ever walked up to me to extend a hand of friendship to me except you so I was taken aback. I hope you will understand," Jin Xiaoqi explained, seeing Qing Shui's expression fell when she said nothing.
"They are the weird ones for being so stupid not to see the great personality I see in you. Since the first time I had heard rumors about you, I had already liked you. You are just my type of girl so let's be friends hmm?" Qing Shui said, still smiling. That was how these girls became best friends. After everyone heard about that incident, Jin Xiaoqi was nicknamed 'Wild dog'. Throughout high school years, both of them were inseparable. Shui Shui smiled happily when she recalled the old days.
