Li Qi, upon hearing this, was so enraged that she rushed forward, attempting to grab Bai Xi's clothes.
Bai Xi swiftly dodged her move, observing the person before her who was acting like a lunatic who had consumed mad cow disease. "Please, go see a doctor if you're ill, instead of going crazy here? I'm going for breakfast and have no time for you."
Skipping breakfast in the morning was bad for the body. Delaying her mealtime for the person in front of her was not a wise decision in any way.
Because Bai Xi had dodged, Li Qi slammed into the dormitory door, a red mark immediately appearing on her face. She covered her face, her expression becoming even more ferocious as she shouted, "Do you know that it's because you made Wang Lan drink that thing yesterday that she was taken by some boys..."
The words were left unfinished, but the implication was clear.
Bai Xi's brow furrowed slightly, but her expression didn't change much. "So? What does it have to do with me?"
Hearing Bai Xi's words, Li Qi's eyes widened, her anger intensifying. "You, are you even human, are you a woman? How can you be so cold-blooded and cruel!"
As she spoke, she tried to grab Bai Xi again.
This time, Bai Xi finally acted. She exerted a slight force on her foot, directly kicking the back of Li Qi's knee. Li Qi stumbled, her whole body collapsing to her knees in front of Wang Lan's dormitory door.
Li Qi gritted her teeth in pain and initially exclaimed, "Bai Xi, you will face retribution! You harmed Lan Lan, and you will suffer the same fate as Lan Lan, absolutely!"
Her bloodshot eyes, filled with malicious curses, fiercely attacked Bai Xi.
Bai Xi glanced indifferently at Li Qi, who was kneeling on the ground and unable to get up due to the pain. "Retribution? If you insist on talking about retribution, then everything Wang Lan suffered last night was her deserved retribution?"
Yesterday, the two of them had intended to use that drug against her. If she had been an ordinary female student, then she would have met such an end.
Therefore, her outcome, if called retribution, would not be without reason.
It was just that this outcome could only be said to be within expectations, yet also within reason. Colluding with unscrupulous individuals to harm others was akin to seeking skin from a tiger or dancing with wolves; the backlash would be instantaneous, and how many could escape unscathed?
Upon hearing this, Li Qi was slightly stunned, her expression peculiar, a clear sign of awkwardness. "But, but, since you already knew, why didn't you throw the drug away? Why did you have to give it to her instead? Otherwise, how would she have ended up like this?"
Bai Xi said indifferently, "The drug wasn't mine, how would I know what it was? Actually, I am a strong believer in repaying kindness with kindness and vengeance with vengeance. Why do you assume that it's alright for you to add something to my drink, but it's a grave sin for me to swap your drink and return what you added to your bottle?"
Li Qi was rendered speechless by this remark, unable to utter a single word of rebuttal. In the end, she could only say, "You shouldn't be so cold-blooded at least, saying that this matter has nothing to do with you!"
Bai Xi was already quite calm about Li Qi's unreasonable fuss. "So, you believe this matter concerns me, then... does this matter concern you? What right do you have to question me here?"
Li Qi didn't understand why Bai Xi was asking this, but finding an opportunity to retort, she instantly became spirited. "She's my friend, my best friend, how can it have nothing to do with me? Is it wrong for me to want an explanation from you?"
Bai Xi looked at Li Qi before her and felt truly speechless.
They said that Black Gold Academy produced elites at the top of the future pyramid, but did becoming an elite not require intelligence and emotional quotient? What in the world was this?
Seeing Bai Xi's silence, Li Qi's eyes became even sharper. "What, you're not talking anymore? Someone like you must have no friends, no empathy, not even humanity."
Bai Xi originally didn't want to engage in this pointless talk with her, but upon hearing the word "friend," she really couldn't tolerate it.
Friends, best friends, had all been ruined by such trash.
"Fine, since you say she's your friend. Then, it was you who sent her to Sun Mei for the antidote last night, so why did you return alone and leave her to encounter such a thing?"
Li Qi was stunned for a moment, her mind flashing back to the events of last night. "I, I, I was scared. If I had stayed there, I would have been hurt too! I was also protecting myself, what's wrong with that?"
Bai Xi continued, "Alright, after you left the scene, did you ever think about saving her? By calling the teachers, or even the security bureau?"
Li Qi was again struck dumb. After a few stammered words, she replied, "Sun Mei's boyfriend has a powerful background. The teachers and students at the school are all afraid of him. If I dared to do anything, my family and I would be implicated!"
Bai Xi glanced at the door of Wang Lan's dormitory, which was silent and showed no signs of life, knowing that she still hadn't returned. She then added, "And up until now, have you gone to see her? What is her condition? Have you called an ambulance for her, or comforted her psychological trauma?"
Li Qi became even more flustered. "I, I, I don't dare... If those people are still there, what should I do? I'll get hurt too then!"
"So, you've come to condemn me, thinking I wouldn't dare to touch you, right?"
Li Qi was choked for a moment.
Bai Xi's gaze became increasingly cold.
"When Wang Lan was being harmed, you did nothing, just hid in your dorm, pretending you were powerless. You chose to escape last night to protect your own safety. To prevent your psyche from collapsing due to guilt, you chose to shift all the blame onto me. I must say, your self-preservation instinct is truly world-class."
Frankly, although she had met many people, and even dealt with many wicked individuals, it was indeed the first time she had seen someone embody selfishness so vividly.
At this point, Li Qi could no longer utter a single word of rebuttal. Her face was flushed red, unsure if it was from shame or anger.
Bai Xi, too lazy to bother with her, turned and walked out of the dormitory, sending a text message to Wei Changhe to notify him that there might have been a malicious incident of a female student being bullied at school, asking him to investigate it properly using the school's system.
Her good mood on her first day at China's top school had been ruined by Li Qi.
Bai Xi felt extremely unlucky. As she walked to the dormitory door, her expression was naturally icy, as if it clearly stated "Keep Out."
As she was walking, a girl suddenly rushed out of the dormitory and back inside. She excitedly said to the few girls she was with, "Hey, hey, hey, just now, just now, I saw a man at the dorm entrance... he was so handsome!"
Handsome guy?
