The Beloved and Pampered Girl

Looking at her perfect self in the mirror, she nodded in satisfaction and revealed what she thought to be a very charming smile.

When she saw Chu Liyuan emerging from the restroom, she directly resorted to a classic “green tea” tactic.

That is, “fake drunkenness to create a collision!”

Indeed, she wanted to use this opportunity to have an intimate encounter with the older man.

Wu Shanshan had already imagined the scene of herself being caught in his arms.

Their eyes met, conveying emotions in their gazes. In a flash of lightning and thunder, like a heaven-sent fire igniting the earth, Teacher Zhu’s red lips would cover hers in a kiss, the two of them locked in a deep embrace, inseparable and reluctant to part.

The corners of her mouth already boasted a smile of anticipated victory, as if she could already see Jian Dan defeated.

What Wu Shanshan never expected was that what actually “accompanied” her was the cold, hard marble floor.

Without any intervention, she really hit the ground, and from the sound of it, it was clear that the fall was no light matter.

Wu Shanshan, in pain, covered her arm and said irritatedly, “Teacher Zhu, didn’t you see me falling? Why didn’t you catch me?”

“Do you even look like you’re drunk? If you’re not drunk, how could you fall?

If it was intentional, why would I stop you?” Chu Liyuan’s voice was cold and emotionless.

“You—” Hearing her scheme so bluntly exposed, Wu Shanshan was overwhelmed with shame and anger at that moment.

Chu Liyuan paid her no attention and walked past her after washing his hands, as if he hadn’t even seen her.

Wu Shanshan watched Chu Liyuan’s departing figure with eyes full of hatred.

“No man has ever dared to treat me like this, Zhu Rimen, you just wait, I definitely will not let you off!”

On the surface, Wu Shanshan was a pure white lotus, but in her heart, she was a dark lotus.

Ever since she was young, if she couldn’t have something, she wouldn’t let anyone else have it either, she would outright destroy it!

Wu Shanshan forced herself up from the ground, straightened her clothes, and returned to the private dining room where they had dinner, hiding her pain as if nothing had happened.

Although Wu Shanshan didn’t say anything, Jian Dan could still tell from her expression that something quite interesting must have happened.

It seems that that kick must have been quite forceful.

“Everyone’s finished eating, right? Let’s settle the bill then!”

What Wu Shanshan couldn’t stand the most was Jian Dan acting like the spokesperson for Teacher Zhu, and she really felt like flaying and dismembering her.

After settling the bill, everyone returned to their dormitories.

Before they parted, Wu Shanshan took a malicious glance at Jian Dan and Chu Liyuan.

Jian Dan saw Wu Shanshan’s glance and felt no perturbation within.

She was afraid that Wu Shanshan wouldn’t make a move; as long as she took action, Jian Dan would have a legitimate reason to deal with her.

Xiaoting’s and Jian Dan’s dorms were next to each other, so they walked the same path, during which Xiaoting didn’t say a word to Jian Dan.

Before Jian Dan entered her dorm, “Xiaoting~”

When Xiaoting heard Jian Dan calling her, she paused for a moment before she opened the door and returned to her own dormitory.

Jian Dan saw Xiaoting enter her dorm, then opened the door and returned to her own, and before she even had a chance to set down her bag, her phone started ringing.

Seeing the caller ID, she suddenly had a bad feeling.

After pressing the answer button, “Hello, Sister Zimo!”

“Lass, there’s been a bit of trouble!”

“Hmm?”

“I’ll let Yun explain to you!” Qiu Zimo was not very good at explaining.

“Miss Jian~ It’s Yun!”

“Yun, what did Sister Zimo mean just now?”

“Yang Xiaoting’s brother has gone missing!”

“Missing? What do you mean by missing?”

“We haven’t had any news from him for a week now, and we haven’t been able to reach him!”

“He couldn’t have…” Jian Dan hesitated to voice her speculation.

If Xiaoting found out something had happened to her brother, she definitely wouldn’t be able to handle it.

“He shouldn’t have! According to the intel we’ve received, it seems he escaped with injuries.”

Jian Dan instantly let out a sigh of relief.

“What’s the situation now?”

“We are desperately searching for him, and of course, the other side is also looking for him, because he has the complete data of the latest biotech technology, and if this technology falls into their hands, the consequences will be unimaginable.”

“So you’re contacting me means…”

“The other party knows about Yang Xiaoting’s existence, we suspect they may try to use Yang Xiaoting to lure out her brother! So…”

“I understand, you mean I should keep a closer watch on Xiaoting, don’t worry!”

“Miss Jian, what Mr. Zimo meant was, for you to leave school tonight and let us take over from here.”

Yun’s words were very veiled…
