Chapter 147 Lily Won't Indulge a Selfish Ungrateful Guy
Lily looked at Wendy. Why did she just assume Lily should help her?
She said flatly, "Have you forgotten what you did to me and what you said at yesterday's event?"
Wendy immediately felt a bit guilty. "I... I was tricked by Jerk, too."
"What's that got to do with me? It's not like they took naked photos of me!" Lily shot back.
If they were her naked photos, Wendy would probably have started spreading them around already.
These days, some people just think others should keep giving and giving!
Lily wasn't going to put up with that!
If she didn't care what people thought, they couldn't guilt-trip her.
Wendy burst into tears and grabbed onto Zoey, wanting her to speak up.
Zoey said quietly, "You were a bit too much yesterday. Maybe you should apologize to Lily."
You can't bully someone yesterday and then ask them for help today - that doesn't make sense!
Hearing this, Wendy cried even louder.
Because she didn't want to bow down to Lily and apologize. She'd always been the proudest person in the dorm and had always looked down on Lily.
But the very Lily she looked down on had somehow transformed into a popular online streamer!
Wendy couldn't quite accept this reality.
Now asking her to beg Lily - she just couldn't do it!
After being woken up, Lily couldn't fall back asleep, so she went straight to the study room, wanting to borrow some books to read.
A lot had happened in her past life, and she'd actually gotten a bit rusty with her studies. Now she needed to catch up.
After Lily sat down with her books, she noticed quite a few people sneaking glances at her.
But when she looked their way, they quickly looked away, afraid to make eye contact.
Before long, a girl sitting next to Lily quietly passed her a note: [I'm your fan, can I get an autograph?]
Lily signed her name in the notebook the girl had prepared.
But soon, more fans came over. Worried about disturbing everyone's studying, Lily simply left the study room.
"Lily, can we talk to you?"
Lily turned around to see two girls. She recognized them as official members of the Empire Team.
Last time, after she dealt with Theron, they were the ones who came out and said they believed her.
One of the girls hesitated. "Can you run for captain of the base?"
"Me?"
"Yes, you're really skilled. You know what Theron's like - he's hurt so many girls, but no one dares to speak up. If you became captain, things like this wouldn't happen anymore."
"Lily, with you as captain, I believe the Empire Team will definitely reach new heights."
Lily thought for a moment. "But I haven't heard anything about a captain election."
"I'm planning to report Theron. Seeing Wendy get hurt by the Jerk, too, I regretted it all night. If I had spoken up back then, no more girls would have been hurt by Jerk."
"After the school starts investigating, he'll be removed from his position. Then there'll definitely be a new election, and with your popularity now, you'll definitely be captain!"
Lily saw the determination in their expressions and felt touched.
Girls really are the most wonderful beings in this world.
Lily hadn't wanted to join the school team because of Theron, but if they got rid of Theron, that would be perfect!
Lily nodded in agreement. "Okay, if you need any help, just come find me."
The two seniors smiled. "No need, we've already gathered enough evidence. It's more than enough."
Lily went outside the school alone. She bought some food, wondering if she should learn some self-defense!
She had so many enemies now. If she were too weak physically, she'd be at a disadvantage.
"Miss, would you like to check out our gym? We just opened and have special deals." A gym promoter came up with flyers.
Lily saw boxing pictures on the gym's flyer.
She pointed at the boxing. "Can you teach this?"
"Yes, our gym owner is a professional boxer. Girls can learn it for self-defense, too."
"I'll take that then." Lily followed the promoter to the gym. There weren't many people there.
The gym owner was a middle-aged man. "You're pretty thin, don't need to lose weight, but you can get fit and strong."
Lily spoke up. "I want to learn self-defense in a short time, the kind where I can actually fight people!"
The gym owner said hesitantly, "Young lady, you're so young - are you learning this to get in fights?"
"I can pay double!"
"This isn't about money."
"I'm also a streamer with a million followers. I can bring you traffic."
The gym owner coughed. "But then again, it is good for girls to learn some self-defense! When do you want to start practicing?"
"Today!" Lily wanted to become even stronger.
She'd only wanted to live her own life, but reality wouldn't allow it. So she'd just have to get rid of those obstacles.
Lily worked the gym owner so hard that he ended up lying on the floor resting.
The gym owner looked at Lily. "Have you always been this strong?"
"Yes. I've been pretty strong since I was little."
"Then you're actually quite suited for boxing - you've got talent!"
Lily wiped off her sweat. When she headed back, her legs were shaking. So exhausting!
When she got back to the dorm, Wendy was still crying. Zoey had even brought dinner back for her, but Wendy hadn't eaten.
Lily took a shower and crashed into bed, completely unable to hear Wendy's crying.
The next day, Lily was sore all over.
She went to class and ran into that group of rich kids from the business school on the way.
Sophie wasn't there, but there was a familiar face.
Ethan walked straight up to Lily with a can of drink. "I heard you've been pretty cocky these past few days while I was gone! Even tried to push Sophie off the rooftop yesterday!"
People around them were curious.
Lily seemed to know people from the business school.
After all, Samantha had been taken away because of the bullying incident and still hadn't come back. Everyone thought things had calmed down.
Now someone else was coming after Lily.
Was Lily really just an ordinary freshman?
Facing Ethan's questioning, Lily said calmly, "Got any proof?"
"What, if there's no proof, you didn't do it?"
"What else?" Lily took the unopened can from Ethan's hand. She twisted it with both hands, and the can got completely crushed!
The cola from the can sprayed all over Ethan!
But Ethan just stared at Lily's hands and backed up several steps in shock. This woman crushed a can with her bare hands?
That strong?
Lily put the crushed can back in Ethan's hand. "This time it's a warning. Next time won't be so simple."
Lily patted Ethan's shoulder, wiping the cola off her hands in the process.
She swaggered right through the middle of the business school group.
Her face was expressionless, with a band-aid on her forehead, adding a touch of fierceness.
No one dared block her way.
Lily just walked off like that.
Ethan turned to look at Lily's back and furiously threw the can after her. "Stop right there!"
