The Little Witch is still the Little Witch, unchanged.

"Rongrong".
Oscar frowned, wanting Ning Rongrong to return the steamed bun to Ning Shu.
"This is the breakfast that everyone has ordered, as instructed by the dean," he said.
"So what if she gave the order? As long as she agrees, can't I have the things?" Ning Rongrong said arrogantly, revealing her true nature as a little devil once again. Oscar looked at her, feeling somewhat awkward.
As expected, the young lady's temperament is not so easy to change.
Seeing that the future young couple was about to quarrel, Ning Shu thoughtfully stepped in to defuse the situation, saying, "It's alright, it's only right for an older sister to give in to her younger sister."
[Ning Rongrong, keep gloating! Once the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School becomes a tool in Tang San's hands, used and discarded, turned into cannon fodder, and everyone is dead, let's see how you'll still be laughing then!]
"?!"
Ning Rongrong's body trembled, her pupils suddenly dilated, and her hand involuntarily loosened, causing the steamed bun to fall to the ground with a thud.
"Ning Shu, what did you say?!"
Ning Rongrong suddenly yelled at Ning Shu, "What nonsense are you spouting? Do you want to die?!"
She rushed forward, grabbed Ning Shu by the collar, her eyes filled with disbelief.
However, Ning Rongrong's sudden action not only frightened Ning Shu, but also Oscar.
Oscar rushed forward and grabbed Ning Rongrong, "Rongrong, what are you doing?"
"What? What did I do?! Didn't you hear what she said?!" Ning Rongrong abruptly shook off Oscar's hand, looking extremely agitated.
Oscar had no idea what was wrong with Ning Rongrong. Ning Shu had only said, "The older sister should give way to the younger sister." Was that really so offensive?
Ning Shu and Oscar shared the same thoughts, but she didn't have as much patience for Ning Rongrong as Oscar did.
Ning Shu reached out and grabbed Ning Rongrong's wrist, which was gripping her collar. She was much stronger than Ning Rongrong; with just a gentle pull, Ning Rongrong's hand was forced away from her collar. She flung Ning Rongrong away and yelled, "What's wrong with you?"
Ning Rongrong was thrown heavily, and her whole body involuntarily leaned backward. It was Oscar who caught her, preventing her from having a close encounter with the ground.
"..."
"Ning Rongrong, are you sick in the head? If you don't want to acknowledge me as your cousin, then don't. One minute you're acknowledging me, the next you're denying it. Are you some kind of shapeshifter? What's wrong? Are you sick? Go get treatment. Don't try to get attention from me. If you dare to act innocent after getting what you want, next time it won't be these words, it will be my fists!"
Ning Shu warned coldly, seemingly genuinely angry. She straightened her clothes, said nothing more, and skipped over the rich young lady and the poor boy before going for a run.
"..."
Watching Ning Shu's departing figure, Oscar released Ning Rongrong. His eyes were filled with disappointment as he looked at Ning Rongrong: "Rongrong, I thought you had changed after what happened last time, but I didn't expect that even after so many days, you are still the same as before, only caring about yourself and putting yourself at the center, never considering others."
"Oscar, how could you say that to me?" After calming down, Ning Rongrong realized that Oscar hadn't heard Ning Shu's thoughts. She wanted to explain to Oscar, but she didn't expect that Oscar would still see her that way. She shook her head, feeling a little sad. How could Oscar not side with her?
Everyone clearly dislikes Ning Shu, and everyone is ostracizing her. So why is Oscar now considering Ning Shu's perspective just because she lost her temper once?
On what grounds?
Why treat her like this?
Resentment, anger, and grievances took root and sprouted in Ning Rongrong's heart.
Ning Shu is clearly just a child adopted by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, so why does she receive so much attention?
Is it because she is exceptionally intelligent?
But what good is her intelligence?
Didn't he still lose everything in an accident?
How can someone who has nothing be compared to her?
Ning Rongrong's eyes welled up with tears. Seeing this, Oscar felt a pang of pity, but still voiced his thoughts: "Rongrong, you really went too far this time. Ning Shu is certainly annoying, but honestly, has she really done anything outrageous in the days she's been at the academy? Yes, she has a bad personality, and we don't like her, but didn't the dean say that we're colleagues? Even if we don't like her, we should try to accept her. She's been making changes, hasn't she?"
"She's making changes, but haven't I made changes too?" Ning Rongrong retorted loudly. No matter how she thought about it, she never expected Oscar to say such a thing to her, especially because of Ning Shu.
It was Ning Rongrong's loud shout that caught the attention of Tang San and the others, who had already finished breakfast and returned from the cafeteria.
They approached Ning Rongrong and Oscar. Noticing the tense atmosphere, Ma Hongjun was the first to speak up, asking, "Oscar, Rongrong, what's wrong with you two?"
Zhu Zhuqing walked over to Ning Rongrong's side, and with her thoughtful nature, she put her arm around Ning Rongrong's shoulder, giving the currently distraught Ning Rongrong a sense of reassurance.
Oscar has always had the best temper among them. Although Ma Hongjun didn't know what had happened, he could probably guess that it was Miss Ning who caused trouble again. Otherwise, Oscar wouldn't have such a disgusted expression.
Ma Hongjun reached out and patted his shoulder to comfort him, without saying anything more.
Oscar looked at Ning Rongrong with a complicated expression. Now that everyone was here, it was hard for him to say anything. Ning Rongrong cared about her image, and even if he didn't care about himself, he had to consider her, as a young lady.
Oscar turned his head away and sighed softly, "It's nothing, I'm going to go for a run."
After saying that, he ran out of the academy.
"Eh..."
Ma Hongjun watched Oscar's departing figure and couldn't help but sigh.
Pursuing a girl is really not easy. She gets angry so easily, and in the end, you have to coax her yourself. It's such a hassle.
He shook his head and suddenly noticed the steamed buns on the ground.
"Who is it that's wasting food?"
Ma Hongjun squatted down, picked up the steamed bun, patted it, and then put it in his mouth.
"..."
The group parted on bad terms, and despite Ning Rongrong's discomfort, she still went to run laps obediently.
On a rooftop not far away, a burly man had taken in everything that had just happened. He turned to the thin man beside him, whose face had a somewhat cunning look, and said, "Dean Flander, Ning Shu's personality doesn't quite get along with the other children. After so much trying to get her to cooperate, she's still the same as when she first arrived. This isn't good!"
