Chapter 38:

Kya!

So What If I'm a Girl



When morning came, Lan Du had a bad headache, she took out some headache medicines and pain killers to ease it.She changed into her uniform and left early for class.On the way, she met up with Xie Ying and Xie Jing who blushed the moment they saw her.

"How about a morning kiss now?"Lan Du asked and pointed at her cheeks

The two shook their heads

"Don't get too greedy"They said in unison

Lan Du laughed

"How about I give the kiss then?It's only right to return gifts after all"She said and walked closer

"n-no need"They shook their heads and blushed even more, Lan Du smiled and took out her phone

"How did you two get my number?I don't remember giving it to you"Lan Du asked

"well...we asked fatty beforehand so..."

Lan Du nodded, she had told all her room mates her number just in case they get beaten up again like last time.She didn't want a repeat of what happened last time.

"Thats good, I was thinking about adding you two soon since I don't want pigs eyeing your beauty"lan Du poked their faces and said warmly.

Her gaze was filled with warmth and her hand gently caressed their heads lightly.

"Lets go to class before the instructor chews me out"Lan Du said jokingly

Xie Ying and Xie Jing nodded, they followed closely beside her, linking arms with her.

"Lan Du, why is your skin so smooth although your strength is even monstrous than most the boys?"Xie Ying asked

Lan Du said with a smug look

"I'm born a beauty, naturally by body will match my face"

"mn, your face is prettier than many girls, even we feel a bit jealous about it"They said and poked her cheeks.

Lan Du frowned

"Why are you jealous?"She asked

"Because you have such beautiful skin and cute face"They replied

Lan Du laughed

"But I belong to you, wouldn't that make it your beauty as well?"She smiled gently and said

Xie Ying and Xie Jing both blushed, their faces flushed red and the tip of their ears burned up.Lan Du took notice and continued to tease them.

"Lan Du, you're so bad"They mumbled

Lan Du laughed

"A good person never live long, how can I enjoy being with you both if I'm a good person?"Lan Du smiled slyly and began laughing

To her, the twins were like a source of relaxation.She walked along with them to the classroom and took a seat.As always, the boys would glare at her constantly.

Lan Du would then give them a mocking smile, taunting them further

“Keep looking and I gauge your eyes out”she said coldly

The boys all turned around immediately, not axing to look at Lan Du directly.She grinned and leaned back on her chair.Instructor Lu came in with a dark face, he turned to Lan Du and said in a deep voice.

“Lan Du, you come with me”His expression was dark, none of the students has seen him like this before.His expression showed that he was genuinely angry right now.

Lan Du followed him out and headed towards an off limits area for students.The room in that area had a large double door and was guarded by two instructors.

Lan Du was led into the office by instructor Lu and inside were three others.One was the principal of the academy, Shan Bei, the other two were someone she didn't realise.One was a middle aged woman, she had a smile on her face while other other was a old man who glared at her.

"Lan Du, do you now why you're here today?"Principal Bei asked.

Lan Du shook her head

"Kid, you injured so much of my students yet you pretend not to know?!"The old man by the side shouted.

Lan Du lifted her brows

"Oh, so those hairless brats were from your academy, what?Couldn't beat a twelve year old so they went home crying to mummy?Pathetic, the academy in this city only trains students to become worthy in joining the battlefield, not to run with their tails tucked between their legs!"Lan Du spat insults after insults and showed no signs of stopping.

"You!How dare you speak in such a disrespectful manner!"He raised his hand and was about to smack Lan DU when he was stopped by principal Bei.

Lan Du couldn't even see their movements, it was so fast her eyes couldn't keep up at all!She squinted her eyes and took a step back.

She then let out a cold smirk

"I see, this is why your students are so uneducated, as they say, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, your academy is the perfect example"Lan Du stood behind instructor Lu and said

"Brat!Acting so shameless, do you have no shame hiding when saying such things!"The old man shouted

Principal Bei smiled awkwardly

"now now, calm down principal Yi, Lan Du is still young"

Lan Du stuck out her tongue

"I'm indeed shameless enough to do this, acting shameless is also my strength"Lan Du laughedpfft

The woman by the side let out a giggle

"Interesting, this boy is funny, I like him, principal Bei, how about giving him to our academy?"The woman said

Lan Du glanced over

"Lady, I already have two devils by my side, a third will just be too chaotic, also, I'm not interested in woman above my age"

The lady paused

"Are you implying I'm old?"She asked

Lan Du shook her head

"No, in fact, you look incredibly young, around 20 I assume, but even if you're 16 I won't be interested"Lan Du smiled and replied

The lady laughed

"You sure know how to please a woman, and your face isn't bad either, no, in fact, you will grow up to be very handsome"

"Principal Yue, please restrain yourself, we will not give Lan Du to you, after all, he is one of the best students we have"Principal Bei cut in and said

"Enough!Don't ignore me!Your student has injured over a dozen students from my academy, I demand a compensation"

Lan DU frowned

"Damn, I knew you were shameless when you picked a fight with me, but to even dare ask for compensation, I always thought I was the most shameless, but I guess I was wrong"Lan Du cupped her fists together

"I concede my title to you"

pfft

Principal Yue began laughing intensly, Lan Du was just too good at mocking people.

"Lan Du, enough"Instructor Lu pulled Lan Du back and covered her mouth.Principal Bei sighed

"Old Yi, my students were also hurt in the process, my question was why your students were causing a ruckus at my ground?"

Principal Yi snorted

"They were merely sparring with your students, but who would have expected them to be unable to hold their own"He said angrily

"Wah, what a coincidence, I was also sparing with them, I even let them all come at the same time yet they couldn't win, who would have expected your students to be so weak they couldn't hold their own?Their injuries were from their weakness, that's your reasoning, can't say crap about me"Lan Du's mouth shot out like a dispenser.

Instructor Lu quickly covered her mouth, preventing her from saying anything else.

Principal Yue however couldn't hold it anymore, she burst into laughter, holding her stomach as tears rolled down her eyes.

"This is too good, that kid is amazing!"She laughed

Principal Yi was livid, his body trembled from anger and his face was red.

"Lan Du, enough"Principal Bei said

Lan Du frowned

"Aw, how mean, principal Bei, I not only helped your students, I also helped speak up for you, how can you be so heartless and tell me to shut up?"Lan Du spoke as if she was wronged and sniffled

"Also, what I did was in complete self defence, the not only had the number advantage, they also had weapons, if I didn't do what I did, they would have crippled me"Lan Du shook her head and sighed

Instructor Lu's eyes sharpened

"Is what you said true?"He asked

Lan Du nodded

"They were lucky and struck me at the back of my head, I lost my cool and began beating them down, a metal bat to the head is no laughing matter, I'll tell you that much"Lan Du placed a hand on the back of her head and rubbed

"Oh, I think I can still feel a bump, even a 1 million dollar medicine couldn't fix it overnight"Lan Du clicked her tongue

Instructor Lu's expression was darker than ever, he slammed the table and he glared at principal Yi

"I've heard enough, your students actually brought weapons to the academy?And even dares to hit my student in the back of the head"Instructor Lu was enraged

"Principal Yi, you said Lan Du acted heavy handed and attacked them, but you never mentioned them having weapons so I thought he was in the wrong, I may only be an instructor here, but in the army, my influence is till there, making you lose your job is as easy as a snap of a finger"Instructor Lu said coldy

Lan Du was surprised, it seems that instructor Lu still has connections to the army.Thats a war veteran for you.And he seems to also have a strong influence.

She smiled and pulled up her shirt slightly.There was a large bruise there still and many smaller ones by teh side of it.

"This was caused by those students, I tried my best to protect my classmates so I had to go all out, I'm sorry I caused so much trouble"Lan Du wiped the tear from her face and seemed guilty.

Instructor Lu was infuriated

"Our academy will not give any compensation, if this happens again, I will strip you of your job!"Instructor Lu shouted

All three principals didn't dare say anything, they were genuinely afraid of him.Lan Du's expression was pained and saddened as if she was the victim.Instructor Lu then walked out with Lan Du, his expression was much lighter than before and was slightly happy as well.

"You can stop acting now, we're far enough away"

Lan Du wiped the tears away and her previous expression was gone

"Instructor Lu, I didn't know you had such great influences, by the way, how did you know I was acting?"Lan DU asked

Instructor Lu flicked her forehead

"I've trained you for so long, not even broken bones can make you cry, much less a few bruises, you're not the type to protect your peers unless you know them well, so it's obvious after I think about it"

Lan Du stuck out her tongue and giggled

"Tee hee"

Instructor Lu sighed

"You're more troublesome than I thought, but how are your injuries?"He asked

Lan Du patted her chest

"My body is tougher than it looks, I also have plenty of medicine"Lan Du replied proudly

Instructor Lu smiled

"You did well, I heard that most of those kids were seniors of the academy, so principal Yi was enraged when he heard that over a dozen of them were nearly crippled"

Lan Du nodded

"But who was that lady?Was someone from her academy there as well?"Lan Du asked

"No, but she came here uninvited when she heard that it was a single student who defeated all those kids, she is one of the few women in history that made it to such a high rank in society so her goals are naturally also large, she wanted to recruit you to increase her reputation"Instructor Lu said calmly

Lan Du smiled

"Instructor Lu, you're no simple nut either are you?Not even the three principals dared to look you in the eye when you raised your voice"Lan Du grinned

"I just have some connections to the higher ups in the military, although they can't compare to rankings such a colonels but my influence is no lower than lieutenant"

Lan Du smiled

"Another question, although Colonel Yuan is so strong, why is he only a colonel?He could be a general with his strength"Lan Du question, this question has always caused her to ponder.Although colonels are high ranked, it isn't comparable to a general.

"Don't ask too much questions you shouldn't ask, these are classified information"Instructor Lu knocked her head lightly and pulled her to class.

Lan Du went back to her seats and sat down next to the sisters.

"Was it anything troublesome?"Xie Jing asked

Lan Du shook her head

"No, just some complaints made by students about some trivial matters"Lan Du said with an innocent look

They both gave her a suspicious look and didn't seem to believe her.Lan Du laughed awkwardly, not knowing what to do, she turned to Qui Shan.

"Little Shan, hows your progression in your training?We haven't been doing any physical training these days so don't lag behind"Lan Du said lightly

Qui Shan realised the tension between the sisters and quickly replied

"Ah, of course I train every day, but you seem busy right now, I wouldn't want to bother you"He turned his head to the side and didn't say another word.

Lan Du grindded her teeth

"It seems class is about to begin"She quickly changed the subject once again.Xie Ying and Xie Jing puffed out their cheeks, they glared at Lan Du for beating around the bush the whole time and pinched her in the arm."kya"

Lan Du who was caught off guard let out an adorable little scream.She quickly covered her mouth and blushed furiously.Her eyes shot in every direction from embarrassment and her face burned up.

"kya?"Xie Ying leaned closer with a smirk

"Kya indeed"Xie Jing also leaned in and chuckled

The girls found the scream to be very adorable, the boys however found it to be very feminine.They looked at Lan Du's blushing face, along with her pretty face, they blushed 

slightly and turned back around.Looking any further made them feel as if they were looking at an embarrassed girl so they looked away.

Lan Du shot her eyes around, it was filled with wariness anda bit of anger.Xie Ying and Xie Jing poked Lan Du's face.

"Can you make that sound again?I wanna here it again"They said in sink with one another

Lan Du covered her face, she then removed her hand slowly and took in a deep breath.Her gaze was now calmer and her breathing was stable.Her expression was stoic, no emotions escaped it.She then placed her hand on her mouth and tried to move it upwards with her fingers.

A forced smile...the moment she let go, her lips curled back down.

"Give me some time, I need to clear my head a little"she said to the twins

She felt humiliated, but she couldn't get angry with the sisters either so she calmed her head.Feeling this humiliation, she felt as if a part of her pride was struck hard.She clenched her fists and struck her own chest to stimulate her nerves.

She took in another deep breath and her heart rate returned to normal.A smile crawled onto her face as they turned to the sisters.

The sisters felt a bit bad for Lan Du when they saw her expressionless face, but seeing her casual smile, they felt slightly better.

"You want to hear it again?Lean closer"She said.

Xie Ying leaned in first, since they sat on two different sides, Xie Jing could only pout for not being quick enough.Lan Du grinned and moved her mouth close to her ear.

Xie Ying who was prepared to hear it again suddenly felt a small nibble on her ears.

"kya!"She leaned back and called out


Lan Du giggled

"Did you hear it?I heard it quite well this time"Lan Du laughed
