As soon as Shen Shuang spoke, several boys who were sweaty after exercising nodded along.

"It’s just a plate of cookies, not something particularly precious, why are you being so petty?"

Another boy in a loose white sports shirt wiped sweat off his forehead, the smell of sweat hitting the air, and he casually said, "Girls are such trouble, even a small thing can cause a conflict. No wonder Brother Shuang doesn’t like hanging out with chattering girls."

Brother Shuang?

Su Li immediately realized that this was the nickname these boys used for Shen Shuang.

Su Li examined Shen Shuang. She was quite tall, about one seventy-something, with neat short hair, and a tomboyish outfit, looking like a tomboy. Among these tall boys who were around one eighty-something doing sports, she seemed somewhat petite.

But because her skin was fair and her looks were pretty, she stood out quite a bit.

This type of girl was called a "tomboy," with few female friends, only socializing closely with boys.

These students were currently seniors at Longhua High School, formerly their underclassmen, whom Su Li had heard about. They were all part of the Longhua High School Sports Association and were now sports and art students.

Xu Haohao had always not gotten along well with Shen Shuang, and her face immediately turned unpleasant: "What do you mean I’m being petty? If you want cookies, can’t you tell the kitchen to make some? Why do you have to take mine? Don’t you know they’re for my friends?"

Xu Haohao had quite a temper, and coincidentally her best friend came over, making her even more annoyed by being embarrassed by her half-sister.

The situation became a bit awkward, and both sides were somewhat unhappy.

A bunch of big boys felt that Xu Haohao, this sister, was too petty, starting a quarrel over trivial matters.

"I said earlier that Brother Shuang would surely be bullied when she returned to the Xu Family, even a plate of cookies can get her scolded by her sister. As expected, the world of women is just that complicated," the boy in the white sports shirt shrugged and clicked his tongue twice.

Xu Haohao was so angry her head was heating up; was she bullying Shen Shuang? Clearly, this woman was just causing trouble!

Shen Shuang pouted, unconcernedly saying, "Forget it, it’s just a plate of cookies, not gold, I’m too lazy to argue with little girls."

Shen Shuang raised her hand, using it as a fan at the side of her face. She was also wearing a sports shirt, and as she raised her hand, the wide sleeve slipped down, revealing part of her arm.

The originally fair arm showed a terrifying burn scar, the skin all over with hypertrophy, looking extremely grotesque.

This is... a burn!

The nanny standing silently on the side saw the scar and suddenly her expression turned solemn. She actively spoke to Xu Haohao, "Miss, let’s give this plate of cookies to the second Miss for now, the next batch is about to be baked, I’ll bring it over to you shortly."

The nanny looked at Shen Shuang with concern, "Second Miss, do you need anything else? Would you like to drink some Red Bull or something to replenish energy?"

Shen Shuang heard this and laughed heartily, "Then thank you, Nanny Liu."

The silent Su Li watched all this unfold, the cold smile at the corner of her lips suddenly deepening.

This woman named Shen Shuang was not easy to deal with either; what a good move, retreating to advance.

Intentionally revealing the burn scars on her arm to appear weak, this nanny was probably instructed by Mr. Xu to take special care of Shen Shuang, who had experienced burns.

Xu Haohao was furious as smoke practically came out of her ears, here it came again.

Shen Shuang dared use her near-death experience in a fire as a threat again!

A flash of coldness appeared in Xu Haohao’s eyes, and she immediately wanted to overturn the plate of cookies so nobody could eat!
