Chapter 144 Lu Qingxi Knows the Truth
Xiao Lan's mood was as bright as the spring sunshine, and the continuous good news made her feel particularly happy. She didn't expect Feng Muyang's feelings for Lu Qingxi to be so sincere that he would involve himself, publicly admit his mistakes and work hard to clear Lu Qingxi's grievances. This made her view of Feng Muyang change a little, and the prejudice in her heart slowly dissipated.
She silently chanted Zhai Xingchen's name, with a triumphant glow in her eyes. In her opinion, Zhai Xingchen had suffered a big setback this time, not only had his image been damaged, but he had also lost Helian Che, a powerful ally. This made her feel happy, as if she had won a victory.
However, Xiao Lan did not forget to care about Lu Qingxi. She was worried that Lu Qingxi would be affected by these things, so she sent a message to Lu Qingxi to ask about her condition. However, Xiao Lan, who had not received a reply, began to worry. She decided to go to school early tomorrow morning to see Lu Qingxi's condition in person and make sure she was not affected too much.
The next morning, Xiao Lan came to Lu Qingxi's dormitory early because she was too worried. Lu Qingxi just woke up from her sleep and heard a knock on the door. She got out of bed in a daze, opened the door, and saw Xiao Lan standing at the door. She was a little overwhelmed for a moment.
As soon as the door opened, Xiao Lan was shocked by Lu Qingxi's beauty. For a moment, she even forgot the purpose of her visit and just followed Lu Qingxi into the room. It was not until Lu Qingxi asked her softly what was going on that Xiao Lan woke up from her dream and remembered the important things she wanted to tell Lu Qingxi.
She sat beside Lu Qingxi's bed and began to tell him about the recording incident released by the student union last night. After listening to it, Lu Qingxi's eyes flashed with shock. She didn't expect Feng Muyang to have been against her from before, and there didn't seem to be any deep hatred between her and Feng Muyang. She cast a puzzled look at Xiao Lan, hoping that she could answer her doubts.
Xiao Lan saw Lu Qingxi's confusion. She gently held Lu Qingxi's hand and explained, "Qingqing, Feng Muyang is the boy on the motorcycle you saved. He mistakenly thought that I was the one who saved him. He might have targeted you because of Qin Fangkai. This was all a misunderstanding, but I didn't expect it to turn out like this."
After listening to Xiao Lan's explanation, Lu Qingxi felt that this matter was absurd. Her impression of Feng Muyang became even worse. She didn't understand why Feng Muyang was so obsessed with a misunderstanding and even hurt innocent people.
Xiao Lan accompanied Lu Qingxi to the classroom. Both of them were in a much better mood because they understood the whole story. However, at the door of the classroom, they met Han Xin who came to cause trouble. As soon as Han Xin saw Lu Qingxi, his eyes immediately became disdainful, as if he was looking at an insignificant person.
She spoke contemptuously, her tone full of arrogance: "Since you are a relative of the Zhai family, you should be more self-aware. Go to the forum and post a statement to tell everyone that it is because you have gone too far that Xingchen is targeting you."
After hearing what Han Xin said, Lu Qingxi sneered in her heart. She felt that this girl was too careless and in love, and she didn't even know right from wrong. She ignored Han Xin's unreasonable behavior and stood quietly beside Xiao Lan.
Seeing this, Xiao Lan immediately stood in front of Lu Qingxi. She pointed at Han Xin's nose and said firmly, "Is that rubbish Zhai Xingchen the only thing on your mind? Don't you know how outrageous he was? The victim is our Qingqing. How dare you come to Qingqing?"
Han Xin was frightened by Xiao Lan's momentum and was speechless for a moment. At this time, Jimo Chu also came to the door of the classroom. He heard Xiao Lan's words and understood Zhai Xingchen's behavior. Chu Rouxuan and Helian Che also rushed over from Class A1, obviously having heard the news.
Seeing so many people standing on Lu Qingxi's side, Han Xin suddenly lost the courage to speak. She glared at Lu Qingxi, then turned and ran away.
Lu Qingxi looked at Han Xin's fleeing back, but she was not too happy. She knew that this matter would not end with Han Xin's departure.
Xiao Xu only learned about the incident last night this morning. He found Helian Che and wanted to know the whole story. Helian Che told him frankly that it was indeed Zhai Xingchen who did it, and everyone should be responsible for their words and deeds. Xiao Xu knew this very well. He was aware of Zhai Xingchen's hostility towards Lu Qingxi, but this did not mean that he could do whatever he wanted.
Xiao Xu tried to send a message to Zhai Xingchen to understand his thoughts and situation, but he never received a reply. He began to worry that Zhai Xingchen would pay a heavy price for his impulsive behavior.
After a day of classes, Xiao Xu's worries did not ease. He decided to go to Zhai's house to find Zhai Xingchen, mainly because the incident was a bit serious and he was afraid that Zhai's father would do something to Zhai Xingchen. He hoped to talk to Zhai Xingchen face to face, so that he could realize his mistakes and take responsibility for what he had done.
After Xiao Xu arrived at Zhai's house, he learned from Mrs. Li that Zhai Xingchen was locked in his room by Zhai's father, and he became even more worried. He was worried that Zhai Xingchen would fall into self-blame and depression because of this incident, and might even do something extreme.
Xiao Xu took the elevator quickly and came to the door of Zhai Xingchen's room. He took out the spare key given by Sister Li, opened the door gently, and walked in.
However, the scene in the room surprised him. Zhai Xingchen was not as depressed as he had imagined, but was looking at the painting in his hand with an almost obsessive look, constantly tracing the person in the painting with his hands. Because Xiao Xu was standing at the door and the sunlight was reflected, he could not see what the person in the picture looked like.
"Xingchen, are you okay?" Xiao Xu asked on the spot.
Zhai Xingchen finally came to his senses, and quickly covered his painting with a canvas, then stood up and walked towards Xiao Xu. Xiao Xu looked at Zhai Xingchen walking towards him, and his worries did not ease. He remembered the purpose of his visit, so he asked directly: "Xingchen, why are you so cruel to Lu Qingxi?"
Zhai Xingchen saw the disappointment and suspicion in Xiao Xu's eyes, and his mind immediately began to spin, trying to find a suitable reason to explain his behavior. He first said that he was not targeting Lu Qingxi just because she was her stepmother's niece, and also mentioned the fact that Lu Qingxi had a photo of his sister's ex-boyfriend in her notebook, saying that it happened when the two had not broken up.
After hearing Zhai Xingchen's explanation, Xiao Xu's anger grew even stronger. He didn't believe that Zhai Xingchen would excuse himself so easily, and he didn't believe that Lu Qingxi would do such a thing. So, he decided to go to Lu Qingxi's room to check it out himself.
He walked through the long corridor and finally came to Lu Qingxi's door. He gently pushed the door open and walked in. The room was warm and tidy, and the sunlight shone through the window onto the floor, forming patches of light.
Xiao Xu walked straight to the desk and began to search carefully. He checked the books on the desk one by one, but did not find any photo of Qin Fangkai. He could not help but feel a little disappointed, but at the same time he was more determined to find the truth.
He turned around and prepared to continue searching elsewhere, when his eyes fell on the closet in front of him. He walked over and gently opened the door. Lu Qingxi's clothes were neatly hung in the closet, and his eyes suddenly stopped at a corner on the second floor.
