Quick Transmigration: Why did you provoke him? He's love-struck!

Chapter 245 Thorny Rose (2)

Xu Zhiyun has excellent grades and was a top student specially admitted by the school with tuition and fees waived in order to improve the college entrance examination pass rate.

Jiang Xicun's malice towards Xu Zhiyun came without any reason. He thought she was poor and that her clothes were unfashionable. Because Jiang Xicun "didn't like her," Xu Zhiyun began a long period of bullying.

Yan Zhen hesitated whether to warn Xu Zhiyun about Jiang Xicun's tampering with Xu Zhiyun's underwear.

Although the original owner shared a room with Xu Zhiyun, both of them were loners and their personal relationship was just so-so.

Not only is his current financial background inferior to Jiang Xicun's, but he also can't compare to him in terms of physical fitness.

If we rashly intervene and Jiang Xicun finds out, it will be tantamount to inviting trouble.

Reason told her to pretend she didn't see it.

After tidying up his desk, Yan Zhen climbed into bed and continued to rest with his eyes closed.

Two hours later, my roommates returned to school one after another, and people started talking in the dormitory.

Not long after, Xu Zhiyun pushed open the door and came in. She was a slightly chubby girl with tanned skin, wearing thick glasses and carrying a worn cloth bag. When she saw Yan Zhen sitting on the bed reading, she nodded as a greeting.

Yan Zhen returned a polite smile, and then the two went about their own business.

Xu Zhiyun was tidying up his desk when his phone rang.

She held the phone between her ear and shoulder, answering the call while continuing to pack her things.

"Mom, what's wrong?"

"Is Dad feeling unwell again? Has he taken his medicine?"

"Let's go to the hospital to get checked out first. As for the money... I'll be careful with my spending this month, and my family doesn't need to give me any more living expenses."

"It's alright, Dad's health is the priority. Take good care of him and don't go out to sell things for a while."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Zhiyun sat down in a chair and let out a barely perceptible sigh after a long while.

It wasn't until Xu Zhiyun took a change of clothes and went to the bathroom that Yan Zhen, who was focused on reading, finally looked away from her book.

She was silent for a while, then slowly climbed out of bed, picked up Xu Zhiyun's phone from the desk, opened the memo app, typed a line, and then left the dormitory to go to the cafeteria for dinner.

As October approached, Yancheng entered early winter, and the weather was chilly. Stepping out of the warm stairwell, Yan Zhen was choked by the cold air and couldn't stop coughing.

She took out a mask and put it on, not daring to walk too fast, for fear that walking too fast would cause her to feel chest tightness.

When Yan Zhen returned from the cafeteria, he could hear a commotion in room 307 from a great distance.

With a sob in her voice, Xu Zhiyun's hysterical cry echoed throughout the corridor: "Jiang Xicun, don't go too far!"

"I've already called the police, so even if the counselor comes, it won't make a difference!"

"You want to ruin me? I won't let you get away with it!"

Yan Zhen paused in his steps.

Xu Zhiyun made a scene, probably because Jiang Xicun poured dirty things on her underwear.

When she entered the dormitory, girls from several other dormitories were gathered around the door of room 307. Students upstairs and downstairs heard the noise and also gathered in the corridor to watch the drama unfold. The counselor, who had just received the news, arrived and asked repeatedly what had happened.

Xu Zhiyun cried with tears streaming down her face. Holding a pair of underwear in her hand, she pointed to the sticky, unidentified liquid on her crotch and said, "Jiang Xicun poured dirty stuff on my underwear, trying to get me infected with a sexually transmitted disease!"

The counselor frowned and looked at a girl next to him who was dressed in designer brands.

The girl was tall with fair skin. Her oval face had long, narrow eyes with slightly upturned corners, giving her an arrogant and mean look.

Now, with her arms crossed and leaning against the cabinet, she remained calm despite Xu Zhiyun's accusations, slowly and deliberately picking at her long manicured nails: "Xu Zhiyun, you need to provide evidence for your words. Do you have any evidence to support your claims?"

Xu Zhiyun cried until her face turned pale. She picked up the underwear in her hand and said, "This is the evidence!"

"What kind of evidence is this? Who saw me pour anything on your clothes? It's not that you didn't wash them properly, but you're blaming me for it?"

Jiang Xicun laughed confidently, "Besides, given your usual hygiene habit of wiping your nose on the soles of your shoes, I would feel ashamed to live under the same roof as you. If I were to touch your underwear, I would be crazy."

As she spoke, she pinched her nose dramatically, giving a look of disgust.

The other girls in room 307 who usually fawned over Jiang Xicun laughed in unison when they saw this.

Xu Zhiyun was trembling with anger. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Yan Zhen standing silently to the side, trying to get past everyone into the room. She immediately called out to her, "Lin Xun!"

Yan Zhen froze for a moment.

Xu Zhiyun walked over quickly and grabbed Yan Zhen's arm: "Lin Xun is an eyewitness. She saw Jiang Xicun pour something on my clothes. It was she who reminded me that I found out."

As she spoke, she took out her phone from her pocket and handed the memo to the counselor: "This is a message Lin Xun left for me, Director Zhang. If you don't believe me, you can ask the police to check my fingerprints when they come."

Yan Zhen: "..."

Gan!

Is Hsu Chih-yun sick?

I kindly reminded her, and she turned around and dragged me into the mess?

Yan Zhen turned around and subconsciously looked at Jiang Xicun. Sure enough, the other party narrowed his eyes and stared at her with an unfriendly expression.

The counselor took the phone, read the memo, and asked Yan Zhen, "Is this the message you left for Xu Zhiyun?"

Xu Zhiyun made such a big fuss, and since fingerprints could indeed be detected on the phone screen, Yan Zhen's denial was useless, so she could only nod and say, "Yes."

The counselor then asked, "Did you really see Jiang Xicun pour something onto Xu Zhiyun's underwear?"

Yan Zhen glanced at Jiang Xicun, who had a threatening look on his face, and Xu Zhiyun, who was full of expectation, paused, and said, "No."

Xu Zhiyun was stunned and quickly grabbed Yan Zhen's arm: "Lin Xun, what do you mean? You left the memo, why are you denying it again..."

"I didn't see Jiang Xicun pour dirty things on Xu Zhiyun's underwear," Yan Zhen said as she pulled her thin arm out of Xu Zhiyun's hand.

The counselor asked, "Then why did you leave such a message for Xu Zhiyun?"

"I heard Jiang Xicun say that he was going to put something on Xu Zhiyun's clothes," Yan Zhen said unhurriedly. "But I didn't see it with my own eyes. As for who put the stuff on the underwear, I don't know. Jiang Xicun and Xu Zhiyun don't get along well and often quarrel. Maybe she put it there herself and used my reminder to frame Jiang Xicun."

As she spoke, she gave Xu Zhiyun a meaningful look.

She had intentionally helped her out, and the woman, instead of being grateful, had kicked her into the pit and made her a scapegoat. So she wouldn't mind dragging her back into the pit.

I'm not the kind of selfless philanthropist who sacrifices himself to help others get out of trouble.

Now that things have come to this, none of us can expect to have an easy time.

Xu Zhiyun was taken aback by her sudden betrayal, and his eyes quickly turned cold: "Lin Xun, you're slandering me!"

Yan Zhen coughed lightly twice: "I'm just telling you what I know, I don't want to wrong any classmate. As for the truth, I believe the counselor will give everyone a fair explanation after the investigation."
