Reborn into a Farming Family: My 18 Virtuous Wife is a Hero

She hadn't walked more than a few steps off the podium when one foot silently emerged. Black patent leather high heels were paired with pure white ankle socks, making the exposed ankle appear crystal clear and beautiful. Following the foot upwards, one could see a pretty girl with long, flowing hair. She was flipping through a book, seemingly nonchalant, but a sly glint flashed in her dark eyes.

Su Mu lowered her head and chuckled silently. It seemed she was never short of people to bully her, no matter where she was.

After a self-deprecating laugh, she kept her gaze fixed ahead, pretending not to see the leg. Yet, she lifted her foot and landed steadily. It wasn't that she was looking for trouble, but that some things you can tolerate, while others you must fight back immediately. The more you endure, the more those who bully you will take advantage of you. She was no longer the Su Mu of the past, and naturally, she would no longer allow anyone to bully her as before.

With a scream of "Ah!", the girl immediately jumped up from her seat, clutching her foot that had been stepped on and hopping around several times in obvious pain. Her appearance was incredibly comical, and suppressed laughter suddenly filled the classroom. At the same time, everyone looked at Su Mu with gloating eyes. You know, Liu Yating is a bully at school. If you mess with her, you're going to suffer.

Hearing the laughter, Liu Yating, ignoring her sore foot, stood up straight, pointed at Su Mu, and angrily shouted, "Are you blind?! Can't you see my foot?!"

Being verbally abused without getting angry, Su Mu simply scratched her head, her exposed half-face grinning foolishly, looking completely like a silly girl. "I thought the tables were spaced so far apart that I wouldn't step on anything, so I didn't look where I was going. I'm so sorry, classmate~~ I'm really sorry~~"

The subtext is, "The road is so wide, and you've stretched your leg out so far, who's to blame if you step on it?!"

Clearly, the girl wasn't stupid. She sensed the hidden meaning in Su Mu's words and immediately raised her eyebrows, ready to lash out.

"you……"

"Since Su has already apologized, let's let this matter go. Everyone, please sit down. Class will start in a few minutes, so take out your books." At Tan Lin's command, Liu Yating, who had just been determined to make a scene, immediately sat down reluctantly. If Su Mu's eyes were daggers, he would have been riddled with holes by now.

He gave Liu Yating an embarrassed smile and walked towards his seat.

Just as Tan Lin put down her book and walked out of the classroom, she was about to sit down when she heard a few sharp, ear-piercing metallic scrapes on the floor. The chair that had been pulled back by someone suddenly returned to its original position. Once she was safely seated, the whole class fell silent, and everyone looked at Su Mu with disbelief.

Just now… just now, that lightning-fast movement really belonged to this long-haired, slovenly, and even somewhat ugly girl?! How… how could this be?!

During the time her father was hospitalized, she took care of him every day. But in the month since they moved to Linhai City, she has taken care of him almost every day. After dinner, she would go to an abandoned warehouse near her home to practice her physical skills. Because the warehouse was going to be demolished and rebuilt, there were warning signs around it prohibiting people from entering, so Su Mu was not worried that anyone would break in.

Her physical skills have improved significantly during this time. In actual combat, she could probably handle two adult men without much trouble. Moreover, her improved physical skills are not only in fighting techniques but also in agility in all aspects of her body. For example, when her chair was pulled behind her just now, she almost instinctively attacked. Actually, she didn't want to reveal her martial arts skills too early. If someone deliberately observes and compares her before and after her rebirth, she would be in real trouble. As the saying goes, "The tallest tree in the forest is the first to be felled by the wind." Although she is only a junior high school student now, one can never be too careful.

I'm going to Chongqing tomorrow and will be bringing my laptop, but I don't know if there will be internet there. If there is, I'll update; if not, I'll save the drafts in a document and upload the missed updates when I get back. So please forgive me!
