The Good-for-Nothing Seventh Miss

Chapter 421: Going Too Far (5)

Are we still friends?!

“Are you going to tell me the truth?” Shen Yanxiao persisted with her question.

Tang Nazhi wailed and then plopped on the chair with his hand on his head.

“Okay, okay! I’ll spill, alright?”

Shen Yanxiao shot a glance at Qi Xia, and he quirked his eyebrows. Then, both of them sat down on the couch.

Tang Nazhi raised his head, and as he looked at Shen Yanxiao, who had a firm expression on her face, he moaned inwardly.

“The incident started on the seventh day after you left. You still remember about the gamble that we had with Shangguan Xiao, right?”

Shen Yanxiao frowned. Of course, she remembered that incident.

“After you left, I did not find Shangguan Xiao to honor the wager as you instructed. However, on the seventh day after you left, that bastard could not tolerate it any longer and came here instead, so I told him what you said before you left.”

“And?” Shen Yanxiao asked.

Tang Nazhi hesitated for a moment before opening his mouth. “But that bastard seemed to be a little crazy, and he wanted to compete with you again. I told him you were not there but he would not take no for an answer. Furthermore, he broadcasted it all over the Herbalist Division and badmouthed you too.”

“He wants to compete for another round?” He had the courage to do that? Shen Yanxiao narrowed her eyes.

“That’s right. I meant to ignore him, but a few days later, a group of students from the Bluebird Dynasty’s Yates Academy came to our Herbalist Division for an exchange. Shangguan Xiao seemed to be acquainted with one of the students there and that student proposed a friendly match between each academy, with three students from each side. That person knew your name from Shangguan Xiao and nominated you to compete against him, but you weren’t on campus at that time.”

“That bastard’s mouth was so poisonous, and he spoke badly of you in front of all the students. He claimed that you were a coward and hid because you were afraid… Then, Pu Lisi, that narrow-minded bastard put your name forward in that friendly match. If you were absent from that, then they would expel you for sullying the Saint Laurent Academy’s reputation. I didn’t want that to happen, so I went on your behalf.” Tang Nazhi’s voice grew softer toward the end.

Even though Tang Nazhi sounded uncertain, Shen Yanxiao understood the situation. The so-called Yates Academy student had teamed up with Shangguan Xiao to attack her. Coupled with Pu Lisi, that narrow-minded old man, the three of them wanted to chase her out of the Herbalist Division while she was away.

To protect her, Tang Nazhi had participated in the match on her behalf.

Shen Yanxiao could already guess how the match had ended; she was familiar with Tang Nazhi’s skills in herbalism.

“Even if you lost when you took my place in the match, it did not mean that you would need to drop out of the academy!” Shen Yanxiao said with a frown on her face.

Tang Nazhi clenched his teeth, but he remained silent.

Qi Xia shot a glance at Tang Nazhi and slowly said, “Right now, Pu Lisi is the nominal head of the Herbalist Division.”

“What?” Shen Yanxiao was stunned. As a Great Herbalist, Pu Lisi had assumed the position of the division’s head?”

“The main issue wasn’t with Tang Nazhi losing the match. It was Pu Lisi. He looked at Tang Nazhi’s results from the enrolment test, and he commented that he was not suited to become an Herbalist. He suspected that you had helped Tang Nazhi with his previous potions, and so he had asked him to replicate the process.” Qi Xia’s voice carried a trace of coldness.
