Chapter 358: You Brought It Upon Yourself
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
According to the curriculum, Murong Qiao was studying in the lecture theater on the third floor of the teaching building.
Feng Xinyao was standing not far from the teaching building. She hid in the shadows and stared at the door.
This was the hiding spot that she had specially chosen. It was remote and far away. The students never walked this way, but it provided Feng Xinyao with a good view of the entire teaching building.
She was like a venomous snake lurking in the dark. She hissed and stuck out her tongue, waiting for the right time to pounce on Murong Qiao and bite her.
However, Feng Xinyao’s attention was so focused that she didn’t notice someone walking behind her without making a sound.
“…What’s going on?” Feng Xinyao frowned.
She shivered and looked at the bright sun in confusion, but her body felt a chill.
Huo Yichen, who was standing behind Feng Xinyao, saw her reaction.
Huo Yichen had already received the news when Feng Xinyao came out of the house, especially when he saw how sneaky she was. It was obvious what she was thinking.
“Ugh!” A muffled groan.
Feng Xinyao didn’t even have time to react before she was knocked out by Huo Yichen.
Huo Yichen retracted his hand neatly and took a step back expressionlessly, as if he was disgusted.
Thump.
Feng Xinyao fell to the ground without any support, completely losing consciousness and fainting.
“Heh.” Huo Yichen sneered.
He squatted down and found what he wanted in Feng Xinyao’s sleeve.
Feng Xinyao nervously held the tube of medicine in her hand, but now that she had lost consciousness, Huo Yichen was able to take it from her grasp with a little force.
He lowered his eyes to observe the medicine in his hand. The transparent liquid looked very harmless, but it was precisely this medicine that caused so many people to sink into desire…
“You chose it yourself, so try it yourself.” He looked at Feng Xinyao.
At this moment, Feng Xinyao, who was unconscious, naturally wouldn’t answer.
Huo Yichen tore open the packaging and mercilessly injected the medicine into Feng Xinyao’s body.
Feng Xinyao could only blame herself for having such thoughts about Murong Qiao and choosing such a hidden place. Now that she had fainted, no one would notice what was going on here.
Now she was going to pay for what she’d done.
Huo Yichen slowly pushed away all the medicine until there was not a drop left. Then, he pulled his hand back and stood up. He turned around and left cleanly.
At this moment, the crowd gradually surged out of the teaching building with youthful laughter.
“Let’s go, let’s go. Where are we going later?”
“This class is finally over… Gosh, 1 really want to hurry back to the dormitory and start a game.”
The students were chatting excitedly after class. No one noticed Feng Xinyao, who was lying on the ground in a dark corner.
“Then we’ll get going first. Your man is waiting for you at the door.” Yang Xin’s voice sounded.
Murong Qiao nodded helplessly. After waving goodbye to her two roommates, she turned to look at the figure standing at the door of the building.
Huo Yichen stood by the side of the road with his hands in his pockets. His windbreaker was blown up a little and the corners of his clothes were lifted by the wind. He looked in her direction intently and smiled slightly.
Murong Qiao walked over under the gazes of many people. “You’re in a good mood?”
She asked casually, but she couldn’t help but look at him again.
“Yes, 1 solved a problem,” Huo Yichen answered casually.
Murong Qiao thought that it was about his company, so she didn’t ask further. Instead, she brought up another topic.
“The next time 1 go home, Big Brother will be back from his business trip. I’ll talk to him then.” Her tone was light.
Huo Yichen was stunned for a moment before he reacted. “Okay.”
Her brothers would find out about their relationship sooner or later, not to mention that he had already proposed. If they were not informed now, it would come as a surprise for them later. Huo Yichen felt that Murong Qiao’s Big Brothers would cut him into pieces then.
Fortunately, Murong Qiao was not too persistent on this topic. She casually picked out a few daily interesting things and walked away with Huo Yichen while chatting and laughing.
After most of them had left, Feng Xinyao, who was lying on the ground, slowly moved.
“Mmm…” She slowly opened her eyes.
The pain in her neck was not obvious, but when she got up, Feng Xinyao’s vision darkened and she almost fell back down.
She gradually regained consciousness and belatedly looked at the time.
12:10 P.M.
This time, Feng Xinyao seemed to have been splashed with ice water and instantly woke up.
She fainted. ‘Ah… where’s the medicine?’
“My medicine… is gone? How is that possible—”
In the next few days, just as the students thought that they had eaten enough melons and could digest them for a period of time, they saw another post.
[On the surface, the school belle’s private life is really eye-opening…]
The post was posted during lunch break, and it happened to be the peak period for gossip.
As there was still class in the afternoon, Murong Qiao was taking a lunch break in the dormitory. She held her cell phone and communicated with Jiang Chi about the company’s arrangements.
“Huh?” Yang Xin made a surprised sound.
The chocolate bar she was holding fell on the table, but Yang Xin was not in the mood to pick it up. She only stared at her cell phone and seemed to be in a daze.
Leng Yan, who was sitting beside her, raised her eyebrows and leaned over to take a look. Her expression immediately became complicated, as if he had seen something indescribable.
“Qiaoqiao…” Yang Xin subconsciously wanted to call her.
Murong Qiao lowered her eyes and typed a line of words. Then, she looked at Yang Xin. Seeing that her expression was not right, she raised her eyebrows in confusion.
Leng Yan then coughed lightly. “There’s a post on the forum saying that Feng Xinyao… is fooling around.”
The last few words were obviously a little difficult to say, but Leng Yan could only explain it like this before her face turned red.
Murong Qiao didn’t understand. She took a look at the post on Yang Xin’s screen. At this moment, many people had already followed it.
The comments were far more serious than Leng Yan’s words.
“I can testify that when I went to the bar yesterday, 1 saw Feng Xinyao hanging out with several boys. Moreover, she was smiling as if she couldn’t refuse anyone.”
“Now that you mention it, 1 think I’ve seen it before. When I went back to school at night, I even saw her enter a hotel with a boy…”
“She was selling herself openly. Impressive, admirable. She couldn’t hide it, could she?”
“Now that I have PTSD whenever I see the school belle, 1 should eat less of this melon in the future for the sake of my physical and mental health.”
There were all kinds of comments, and many of them were quite eye-catching.
Murong Qiao only looked through the comments selectively and roughly understood.
Not only did Feng Xinyao not go to class, but she also hung out in bars, nightclubs, and other similar places. Her relationships with several boys were chaotic.
Judging by the students’ comments and the evidence provided, her nightlife indeed seemed quite “exciting.”
“I can’t.” Murong Qiao returned the phone to Yang Xin. “It’s distasteful.”
She did not care about Feng Xinyao’s condition.
Murong Qiao was more concerned about how she would tell Big Brother that she was in a relationship when she returned home in two days…
Hiss, just thinking about it gave her a headache.
Just as Murong Qiao emptied her mind and tried to escape the truth, her cell phone suddenly vibrated several times.
[Murong Chen (Big Brother): Come back home, I’ve told Uncle Yang to make some soup for you.]
[Murong Zheng (Second Brother): I’ll go home this weekend to take a look at your physical wellness.]
[Xian Yu (Fifth Brother): You didn’t even tell me you had a fever and you still treat me as your brother!]
The first two messages were more subtle. When Murong Qiao saw Fifth Brother Xian Yu’s message, her fingers paused.
[Murong Chuan (Third Brother): They know about the swimming pool.]
Murong Qiao had a bad feeling when she saw the last message.
Oh, shit..
