Little Purple

Chapter 26



Inside the Qing Residence.

"That bitch Qing Li!" Qing Bo slammed the small dining table inside his and Qing Guang's quarter, the late first wife quarter.

"Brother, don't do that to the dining table, it is expensive." Qing Guang reminded. Qing Guang was mending her black bow that shined when the moonlight passed through.

"Tch." Qing Bo got up and sat on a corner to calm himself. Qing Bo was the class representative. All of the class representatives had a meeting once a month, and there was where they discuss school events. "To think that her class picked her as the class representative for two years in a row gave me a headache. She is..."

"She is the beloved daughter of the revered Prime Minister Qing residence. Her words were almost law…" Qing Guang understood exactly what Qing Li wants. Last year, Qing Li was only thinking of getting rid of Qing Guang. But, last year, she only made it to the runner-up because she lost to Hu Cheng Se. Hu Cheng Se is the daughter of Great General Hu. The Prime Minister and Great General rarely get along. When Hu Cheng Se won the festival last year, her father was a bit disappointed and that made her mother worried, so now she found a way to get rid both Qing Guang and Hu Cheng Se.

"That fox girl is so f*cked up!" Qing Bo fumed. "Sigh… I am sorry, Guang."

Qing Guang stopped mending her bow.

"I know that when you lost badly last year, even the servants were looking down on you." Qing Bo knitted his brow hard. "And now…"

"I will win."

Suddenly Qing Guang firmly said.

"... huh?" Qing Bo knew exactly what Qing Guang could or could not do, dancing was definitely not one of the former.

"Brother, I will win." Qing Guang gripped her bow. "I won't lose to that fox..."

"Yawn… so tired…" Hu Ye was taking his rest on top of a tree near his class. He needed to study on daylight and hurriedly practice when he arrived home, so his resting time was only on lunch and night. Hu Ye looked at the leaves on top of him. For some reason, this place was warmer than any other, so even though it was autumn, he could still relax and took a short nap.

The place where Hu Ye it was behind the school building. On the opposite side of the school's garden. The place was secluded and quiet, a perfect place to have a quick nap.

Aside from Hu Ye, everyone in the school used the lunchtime to prepare for the upcoming festival. They said that because the festival was new, there was only one theme to be used every year. Also, there is the competition, the competition for boys was different from girls. Last year, boys were told to compete in poems, this year on horse riding. The girls were to compete on cooking last year, this year they needed to dance.

Actually, Qing Bo wanted to have at least five type of competitions each year where the students could chose because he knew everybody had their own talent. But his idea was rejected by Qing Li.

The festival was very important since many parents of the rich kid, that means the rich people will attend.

Hu Ye wasn't really interested in that competition or whatever. Although he would not stop his sister from doing her best not to embarrass the family's name. He knew that he and his family did not need the fame and prestige kind of thing to survive. "It is better if we are not that into this kind of thing, it will only attract unnecessary thing to us." Hu Ye said.

The sun rays passed through the leaves and fell upon Hu Ye's face. Hu Ye slowly closed his tired eyes.

It's not even a minute since he started to fell asleep when something hard and rough hit his cheek. Hu ye frowned a little and continued his nap. Then he felt that thing hit his cheek again, this time, it was bigger and it hit harder. Up until the fifth stone, Hu Ye finally opened his eyes only to see an arrow passed through in front of his nose. "Wait, what?! Aaahh!!!"

Hu Ye fell from the tree onto the bushes below. "What the hell Guang?! Are you trying to kill me?"

Hu Ye was about to protest but stop when he saw Guang's pale face. Guang was frowning really hard.

What Qing Bo said was true. Because she lost and became the first to last, last year, the servants of the Qing family looked down on her. But, that did not end there. What Qing Bo did not know was, Qing Li's mother got the permission to starve this girl who made the family 'lose face'. She was locked down inside a hut that was meant for pigs and was left alone to starve for three days while Qing Bo was not home.

Qing Guang did not want Qing Bo to worry so she did not say anything, she did manage to get back at Qing Li a few times, but the three days of starving almost made her lose her soul. If she were to lose again this year, they might be able to starve her for a week, she will die. She will, if they do that, definitely.

Hu Ye did not like it when Qing Guang made such a face. A distressful face. Hu Ye gave up and asked her. "What happen."

"..." The breeze passed through and made Qing Guang's silky hair softly flew. Her milky skin became a bit pale again because of her stress. She could not sleep last night. Qing Guang tried to think, this is the only way for her to survive. "Can you give me a hand, Ye?"
