“What did Wei Chuyin say?”

As soon as Jiang Chen entered the dormitory, the chatting Luo Peng and the others stopped mid-sentence and all turned to look at him, seemingly waiting for his return.

“What else could she say?

She gave me a good scolding.”

Jiang Chen shrugged his shoulders.

“She really thinks too highly of herself.”

Luo Peng immediately expressed his indignation.

“Jiang Chen, you’re just too polite.

Being gentle and considerate is fine, but it depends on the person.

As for Wei Chuyin, there’s just one word for her: ‘cheap.’ Wasn’t she the one who desperately instigated Ai Qian to break up with you before?

Now she’s putting on this resentful woman act for all to see.

What, is she playing for the cameras?”

Luo Peng said pridefully, “If it were me, I’d definitely slap her twice across the face.”

“That’s not something you should say.”

Li Shao said, “No matter what, we are all classmates.”

“We might treat her as a classmate, but has she ever considered us as hers?

How she treated Jiang Chen before, and now seeing Jiang Chen with Li Shuru, she’s got a sour taste in her mouth, feeling unsatisfied, so she comes to make trouble.

What does she take Jiang Chen for?”

Luo Peng seems to be talking about Wei Chuyin, but his words hint at criticizing someone else through her.

“I’ve never seen someone so shameless before.

She managed to get into Dongda, doesn’t she know how to write the words for propriety, justice, integrity, and honor?

I’m astonished at how meddlesome she is about others’ affairs.

Is it because nobody wants her?

If that’s really the case, I can introduce a few to her: a pig butcher from the market, a steel bar mover from the construction site, or a screw tightener from an equipment factory.

She can pick whoever she wants.”

One has to admit that Luo Peng’s mouth can indeed be venomous.

It’s fortunate that Li Shao dragged him away; otherwise, Wei Chuyin would likely have been infuriated to death.

Bai Zheli listened and felt a bit awkward.

“But Jiang Chen, your counterattack was indeed brilliant.

To actually bring Li Shuru to class with you, that’s the best way to get your revenge.”

Luo Peng looked admiringly at Jiang Chen.

What he didn’t know was that this was not Jiang Chen’s own initiative but something Li Shuru had proposed on her own.

Of course,

Jiang Chen wasn’t about to explain.

After chatting for a while, everyone got busy with their own things.

Back at his seat, Jiang Chen took out his phone, thinking about apologizing to Li Shuru.

After all, being called “the other woman” is a huge insult to any woman.

Li Shuru had taken the blow for him.

After sending out a message, Jiang Chen found out that Li Shuru was actually live streaming, apparently not taking the earlier incident to heart.

This time, Jiang Chen didn’t bombard her with gifts.

Instead, he quietly watched the live broadcast.

Jiang Chen, you don’t really think that Li Shuru genuinely likes you, do you?

Don’t forget how she treated you before!

What she’s after is just your money, just that three million!

Wei Chuyin’s words echoed in his ears.

Li Shuru’s change was clearly visible.

Actually, as for what she liked about him, Jiang Chen couldn’t care less, as his goal was just to complete the conquest mission.

However, as human beings are complex creatures, it’s difficult to control one’s own thoughts.

Even if he wasn’t concerned about the true source of Li Shuru’s fondness, Jiang Chen couldn’t help but start pondering a question at this time:

Was Li Shuru’s drastic change in attitude really just about the money?

Watching the live stream, an idea flashed through Jiang Chen’s mind.

If he were to probe her using his online persona “Lone Shadow of the Chilly River” at this moment, he might quickly get a clear result.

But then he recalled a phrase the girl on the live stream once said.

The moment you decide to test the hardness of a piece of glass, that glass is destined to break.

Those who wish to test human nature are not all that noble themselves.

After watching the live stream quietly for a while, Jiang Chen didn’t tease Li Shuru using the identity of “Lone Shadow of the Chilly River” and exited the live stream.

————

“Shu Rui is really strong, her dad is so seriously ill, yet she can still live stream.”

In the canteen, having just gotten her meal, Xu Siyi set down her plate, seemingly in admiration.

“What else can she do?

Being sad all the time only hurts herself and doesn’t solve anything.

Better to keep a calm mindset.”

Zheng Jingjing sat down and continued the conversation, “Also, I’ve checked, and for this illness, a heart transplant is needed.

Heart transplant surgeries cost a lot of money.

Shu Rui needs to earn money now.”

Li Shuru, who had to live stream, didn’t join them for the meal.

“That’s why having a family that’s healthy is the greatest blessing,” Guo Ran remarked with a sigh.

“Ah, I used to be quite envious of her, but now…”

Xu Siyi shook her head and sighed.

“Good people will have their own luck, Shu Rui’s dad will definitely be okay,” Zheng Jingjing said firmly.

“Hope so.”

Xu Siyi nodded her head, but at the same time, the corner of her mouth slightly curled upwards unnoticed as she lowered her head to eat.

“Sorry, something urgent has come up, and today’s live stream is ending here, goodbye everyone.”

In the dorm, an incoming call forced Li Shuru to end her live stream prematurely.

“Shu Rui, I’ve already spoken to my friend, and he needs some relevant documentation about your father.

Can you bring it to him when you can?”

It was Liang Zhenlun.

The guy indeed was reliable, acting swiftly.

He had only received the money at noon, and there was already progress in half a day.

“It’s probably too late for today, I didn’t go to the hospital, I’m at school,” she replied.

“No problem, no need to rush.

Just let me know when it’s convenient for you in advance,” Liang Zhenlun said, smiling.

It wasn’t his dad lying on the hospital bed, so of course, he wasn’t in a hurry, but Li Shuru couldn’t afford to be so composed.

Her father was struggling against the reaper, in grave danger.

To have the surgery one day earlier meant escaping from risk one day sooner.

“Tomorrow then, I’ll go to the hospital and get the documents tomorrow,” she said immediately.

“How about tomorrow night?

Is that okay for you?”

“That works.”

“Good, then it’s settled.

We’ll contact tomorrow.”

After hanging up, Li Shuru took a deep breath, her heart could not help but be a little excited.

If they got the heart, her father would undoubtedly be saved.

Subconsciously, she wanted to call Jiang Chen and share the good news, but she immediately thought of the afternoon episode in the amphitheater classroom.

Her impromptu invitation to sit in on the class was spontaneous, but partly, it was also influenced by her own desires.

Thinking about it now, it seemed a bit too impulsive.

Right now, people at school didn’t know Jiang Chen’s real background, so they wouldn’t think much of it, but what about Jiang Chen himself?

Would he think her change in attitude was because of his money?

With that thought, Li Shuru’s excitement slowly settled, and she restrained herself from making the call.

This was her family’s matter.

She shouldn’t always be thinking about bothering others.

She slowly put down her phone, only just realizing that she probably shouldn’t be too eager.

Yet this self-willed beauty of the arts college seemed to have forgotten that the person she used to be never cared about anyone else’s opinion.
