Wu Yan didn’t even think that Qiao Sheng would go to the surveillance room for Qin Ran.

Everyone in cla.s.s 3.9 knew that Qiao Sheng only listened to Xu Yaoguang. Since when did he care about other people’s affairs?

Even Qin Yu couldn’t win over Xu Yaoguang’s influence.

But how long had it been since Qin Ran was here?

Wu Yan was really scared now that Qiao Sheng had intervened.

She didn’t dare to tell Qiao Sheng. Although Qiao Sheng appeared mischievous usually, he was actually a young master that everyone was fearful of and he also carried a fierce aura.

So she could only come to beg Qin Ran.

Qin Ran looked up without a surprised expression on her face.

She threw the chopsticks on the table loudly with an expressionless face, but her body was burning in rage.

Wu Yan was startled.

“You…” Qin Ran cleared her throat.

She was about to say something when she smelled a familiar cold fragrance.

The tense atmosphere eased for a moment.

Qin Ran looked over. Cheng Juan was still wearing a patternless black s.h.i.+rt with a row of transparent b.u.t.tons. He was holding his phone in his hand and seemed to be talking to someone.

A young man followed three steps behind him.

He seemed to sense the strange atmosphere in the school doctor’s office and narrowed his eyes. “Call me again later.”

He hung up and didn’t even look at Wu Yan. His eyes fell on Qin Ran and then swept over to Lu Zhaoying.

Wu Yan stared at him and was stunned for a moment, unable to react.

Lu Zhaoying touched his chin and signaled a little to him. He knew about what had happened to Qin Ran in the afternoon.

Wu Yan’s sentence “but you memorized the script” and “blessing in disguise” made it very obvious.

Lu Zhaoying wasn’t stupid.

As he kicked out and the chair moved back, he said with a smile that didn’t reach his eyes, “Oh, this little girl deliberately stole Qin Ran’s script at noon and wanted to see Qin Ran make a fool of herself in front of the whole school. But she didn’t expect that Qin Ran had not only memorized the whole thing, but she also gave an amazing presentation. Someone wanted to check the CCTVs, so she came over to beg Qin Ran to keep the peace and gloss over the matter.”

“According to the prosecution’s norm, if revenge and framing caused the victim’s personal rights to be damaged, resulting in mental disorders, etc., then the person who committed the crime has to face imprisonment or detention for up to two years.” Qi Chengjun, who was behind Cheng Juan, looked at Wu Yan, turned, and chuckled. “Ms. Qin, do you need a lawyer?”

“I really didn’t mean it…” Wu Yan returned to her senses and panicked. She sobbed softly and said, “Qin Ran, don’t…”

“You didn’t mean it?” Cheng Juan put away his phone and glanced at Wu Yan. His delicate eyebrows were eased and he looked quite gentle. “So the script ran to you, and then threatened you to throw it away?”

His words were full of mockery.

It was quite poisonous.

Wu Yan froze and felt the three men stare at her with a strange expression.

Her face turned red and then dark.

Under Cheng Juan’s mockery, she couldn’t bear it and ran out of the school doctor’s office while choking.

Qi Chengjun looked away and turned to stare at the only girl in the school doctor’s office.

He knew that she was probably the Ms. Qin that he had been so curious about.

Qin Ran wasn’t curious about him. She didn’t pick up her chopsticks and took the thermos on the table instead.

Cheng Juan had wanted to make a call, but he narrowed his eyes as he watched her and forgot about it. He came over and helped her unscrew the lid before pouring her a gla.s.s of water.

During this period when Qin Ran’s hand was injured, Lin Siran and Cheng Juan both helped her unscrew the lid. She took it, familiar with the movement, and thanked him after taking a sip.

Qi Chengjun had wanted to talk to Qin Ran. “…”

What had he just seen?!

He turned again and saw Lu Zhaoying with one foot upon the table. He didn’t seem curious about the scene at all, as if he was used to it.

Qi Chengjun was such a calm and sensible person usually.

He had always gotten to the point in the courtroom and was extremely sharp with his words.

But now, he was stunned for a full minute before he sat down thoughtfully on a chair at the side. Then, he let Cheng Mu pour him a cup of tea.

Qin Ran was in a good state today and didn’t have to change her bandage. Instead, she took a bottle of sleeping pills and stuffed it in her pockets before taking her book from the table and returning to her bedroom.

From beginning to end, Qi Chengjun didn’t find an opportunity to communicate with her in-depth.

And she wasn’t curious about Qi Chengjun at all. She just bowed her head in greeting and continued eating. After eating, she just left with her sleeping pills.

She was cold and rather charismatic.

“This little girl…” Qi Chengjun stared at her back as she left. “No wonder people are jealous of her.”

Cheng Juan watched as she left and then turned to Cheng Mu. He said in a low voice, “Go and investigate what happened.”

Cheng Mu responded numbly.

Cheng Juan picked up his phone and continued his call.

He saw an answer sheet on the floor out of the corner of his eye and picked it up.

Qin Ran had dropped it accidentally when she took her book.

He had wanted to look at it casually, but when he saw it, Cheng Juan paused for a moment and his grip tightened slightly.

Qi Chengjun was sitting opposite him and was quite curious. He leaned over to look at it and saw that the answer sheet received only four points.

He laughed first, then turned and seemed to find something wrong.

Lu Zhaoying put his hand on the back of the chair and smiled. “That little girl is good at everything, but her IQ is poor. It’s rare to see her getting a double-digit score, it’s really sad.”

Lu Zhaoying sighed.

Qi Chengjun glanced at him expressionlessly, then pointed to the answer sheet. “Are you sure her IQ is low?”

Lu Zhaoying was stunned.

He got up from his chair and leaned over to look at the answer sheet. He looked for a long while and couldn’t see anything besides the four points. “She got four points, what’s wrong?”

Cheng Juan kept the answer sheet, deep in thought.

Qi Chengjun glanced at Lu Zhaoying with an inexplicable sense of complication. “Nothing.”

Lu Zhaoying’s lips twitched and he suddenly felt like Qi Chengjun wanted to fight with him.

“It really is her!” It was getting dark and Qiao Sheng had finally found the video he wanted from the bunch of data.

“Wu Yan?!” Several boys in the cla.s.s looked at each other.

Xu Yaoguang leaned on one side, his posture elegant and his eyes cold. “Copy it and let’s go.”

Qiao Sheng had already copied it with his mouse.

“Boom—” There was a knock on the door.

The boys thought that it was the security guard, but when they turned around, they saw that it was a girl standing there.

“Qin Yu? You’re here to find Young Master Xu!” Everyone knew her because of her relations.h.i.+p with Xu Yaoguang and Qiao Sheng, and they all knew that she was on good terms with Xu Yaoguang.

Qin Yu smiled and turned to Qiao Sheng. “What do you intend to do?”

Qiao Sheng tossed the USB in his hands and smiled. “Publish the video.”

“I b.u.mped into Wu Yan on the way here and she’s in a very bad state.” Qin Yu sighed and pursed her lips. “Have you thought about how much pressure Wu Yan would face if you publish it? What if she can’t handle it? What if she takes it too hard?”

She paused and then laughed. “Did my sister make you check the CCTV?”

Not anyone could casually check the security department’s surveillance videos. They weren’t policemen. Only Qiao Sheng had this resolution.
