Resurrecting the Genius Within

The door was kicked open from the inside, forcefully colliding with the two girls waiting outside. The bucket of water they were holding spilled all over them. “Ah!” The scream, the crash, and the sound of splashing water reverberated through the restroom. After the two girls were pushed back by the door’s impact, they crashed into a few other girls who were watching the commotion. Then they fell onto the wet floor while their screams blended into a chaotic chorus.

Isabelle leisurely kicked away the rebounding door with her toe while her hands were tucked into her jacket pockets. At the same time, she glanced down at the soaked and dishevelled girls on the floor. Then, she slowly lifted her gaze to the only one who had managed to avoid getting wet: Beauty Queen Nella Leif. Layla had come to use the restroom and stumbled upon this scene. When she saw Isabelle in the stall, she retreated without hesitating. She ran as fast as she could, fearing that if she were a second slower, Isabelle would ‘blackmail’ her, and then everyone would know that this stupid fat pig was her older sister. Isabelle watched Qiao Lingling run away without a care. Stepping out of the stall, she strode over the girls on the floor, her cold eyes fixed on Ye Jingning. Nella’s face was slightly pale from the shock. She had bullied Isabelle countless times, but this was the first time Isabelle fought back. As she watched Isabelle approach her step by step, she realised that Isabelle was nothing like the weak and helpless girl she had known. So, she could not help but back away. In the end, her back was against the door and she had nowhere else to retreat. “W-What do you… want?” Before she could finish, Isabelle’s fist came flying towards her face. “Ah!” Nella let out a scream and tightly shut her eyes. However, the expected pain never came.

it back into her pocket, and walked away as if nothing had happened. Nella slowly turned her head. Then she noticed a dent with fine lines spreading out in the solid wooden door. It took her a while to regain her composure. After that, she looked incredulously at her dishevelled followers on the ground. She belatedly realised that she had been intimidated by that fat pig, and immediately anger surged in her heart. With a fierce expression, she said, “Isabelle, just you wait!” On her way back, Isabelle saw Ethan anxiously waiting in the corridor outside her classroom. Upon spotting her, he immediately walked over. “Isabelle.” “What’s up?” “I heard that you were cornered in the restroom.” “So you came to see if I was okay?” Isabelle understood immediately when she saw him nodding. “I told you, I just didn’t bother dealing with them before.” Seeing her little brother, who had no blood relations with her, limping up and down the stairs, Isabelle felt a little moved. So, the usually quiet Isabelle spoke to him a little more, her tone somewhat soothing.

while trying to hold back anger. “Let’s go. This is so boring.” Before the boy could finish his sentence, a fat hand grabbed his collar and slammed him against the wall. The impact caused a lot of pain in the back of his head and back, so he yelled in pain. After he looked up, he saw Isabelle’s face. “Hey, Fat Pig, are you looking for a fight? Let go of me now.” The boy was very skinny. So, after struggling a couple of times but failing to break free, he became angry and embarrassed and cursed under his breath. “Do you know how to apologise? Go on,” Isabelle demanded. “I’ll apologise to you in hell. Get your dirty hand off me.” “I said, apologise!” Isabelle berated coldly. The boy was taken aback by the forceful tone. When he looked into Isabelle’s suddenly icy gaze, he was a bit stunned. “What are you doing? Let him go,” Mike said to Isabelle irritably. If it were not for this boy, he would not even want to say a word to Isabelle. Since Mike was speaking up for him, the boy immediately switched from being dumbfounded to having a smirk. He looked at Isabelle with disdain as if to say, ‘You’ll obediently follow whatever Mike says anyway, Fat Pig.” Unexpectedly, Isabelle did not even glance at Mike. “Shut up. This has nothing to do with you.” This remark left everyone stunned. “You…” Mike did not expect Isabelle to retort like this. After he recovered from shock, he felt embarrassed but
