"Students these days don't act like students at all. They dress up so extravagantly, I don't know if this is a school or somewhere else."

"I should have never let my brat go to college. Before she went to college, she was so well-behaved and honest. She would never have done such a shameful thing."

As soon as Sun Ling went downstairs, she heard Tan Ying's voice coming from the dormitory next door, and her face didn't look good.

She peeked inside and saw that Tan Ying was on the phone.

Just as she was about to leave, she heard Tan Ying say loudly from inside, "I just saw one, with her arms and waist showing. She's obviously not a proper student. She's probably already been taken care of."

"If this were my daughter, I would have beaten her to death long ago."

Sun Ling finally understood that Tan Ying was criticizing her. Unable to hold back any longer, she shoved the door open, making a loud thud as it hit the wall. She sneered, "If you're so capable, why didn't you raise Su Zhen properly? Let her do something like that? Now that Su Zhen is dead, you're even getting compensation from the school because of her. You have no shame."

"Su Zhen is so capable. You're her mother. Maybe you taught her those methods."

The students passing by noticed this place and stopped to watch.

Tan Ying slammed down the phone, glaring angrily at Sun Ling: "You little bitch, what did you say?"

"Why are you being so fierce, you old bitch? Why is Su Zhen like this? Does it have nothing to do with you? Heh, do you really think others don't know who you are?" Sun Ling wasn't afraid at all.

Tan Ying glared at him angrily: "Someone like you doesn't deserve to be a student at the school. The school should expel you."

"Publicly humiliating a student? Fine, then you join me in this commotion and see who gets expelled." Sun Ling sneered. She wasn't afraid of a paper tiger like Tan Ying. She'd finally gotten a benefit; would the other party really dare to escalate things and lose her job?

The other party may be shameless, but can they afford to lose the benefits they've already gained?

As expected, the students saw that Tan Ying's arrogance had subsided.

Sun Ling tossed her hair, like a victorious general, and left with her bag.

Although Sun Ling seemed flamboyant, many students looked at her with admiration at this moment.

They had disliked Tan Ying for a long time.

Before long, the news spread throughout the school's group chat that Sun Ling had left Tan Ying speechless.

These were just minor conflicts, and even if the school leaders heard about them, they wouldn't interfere much, lest it cause more trouble.

Discussions about Tan Ying never stopped in the school's group chats.

It wasn't just the girls who were talking about it; the boys were too.

4508, male dormitory.

"Su Zhen's mother is truly something else." Liang Cheng scrolled through the messages on his phone, unable to resist making a sarcastic remark. He then glanced at Jiang Yizhou, who was standing silently at the table. "Luckily, you didn't go near her. If she knew you were Su Zhen's boyfriend, I don't know how much trouble she would have caused. But it should be fine now. Given their family's personalities, they definitely wouldn't want to give up what they've got, so they wouldn't dare to cause any more trouble. Otherwise, with her persistent nature, Sun Ling probably wouldn't have been able to handle her."

Jiang Yizhou looked up at Liang Cheng, then nodded, his expression pained: "Yes, there's a reason why Zhenzhen ended up in this situation."

Liang Cheng smiled and patted Jiang Yizhou on the shoulder: "Please accept my condolences. You didn't expect this to happen either."

"It's really not your fault. Who would have thought that the school's goddess would do that kind of thing outside?" Zhou Jiayang, her roommate, comforted her, sighing softly with regret in his voice.

Jiang Yizhou looked dejected, his eyes filled with regret: "If I had been more careful, those things might not have happened. When she left, there was no text message or phone call. I must have been a bad boyfriend."

"I guess she really doesn't want to live anymore," An Shuo comforted her. "Even without you, she probably wouldn't want to live anyway. Being stuck with such a family, she was already in despair. You can't blame her."

“An Shuo is right. Let’s let this matter rest as soon as possible. Fourth brother, don’t overthink it,” Liang Cheng said, then stood up. “Third brother has a date with a beautiful woman today, so he definitely won’t be coming back. Let’s go eat first.”

“An Shuo, you and Lao Si are good brothers, so comfort him more. He has lost a lot of weight recently.”

An Shuo nodded, acknowledging the suggestion. He wasn't from dormitory 4508, but he was on good terms with Jiang Yizhou. With so many things happening lately, and Jiang Yizhou seemingly caught up in it all, he was worried and had come to check on him.

"Boss, to appease Fourth Brother, you're treating today," Liang Cheng said with a smile.

Zhou Jiayang stood up somewhat helplessly and punched Liang Cheng: "You brat, alright, I'll let it go for the sake of Lao Si today."

"Fourth brother, you need to pull yourself together soon. The dead are gone, but the living must go on," Zhou Jiayang patted Jiang Yizhou on the shoulder. "Just pretend you never met Su Zhen's family. Don't mess with them. They're a whole family of bloodsuckers. You should take some time to recover and start thinking about your future. Don't ruin your prospects."

"Boss, I'm sorry, am I delaying the project because of my current state?" Jiang Yizhou said somewhat embarrassedly. "If you guys think..." "Don't mention it. We worked together on this project, how can we abandon you because of something like this? I believe you can pull yourself together, and besides, you played a big role in this project. We're all brothers from the same dormitory, there's no reason to abandon someone just because of a little difficulty."

"Boss, I'll get back to normal as soon as possible."

"That's good," Zhou Jiayang smiled. "Third brother knows a lot of beautiful women. I'll have him introduce you to some later."

Jiang Yizhou quickly shook his head and smiled wryly: "Forget it, I don't want to think about these things right now."

After a moment of silence in the dormitory, everyone went to the cafeteria for lunch.

It was an ordinary day. Before we knew it, it got dark, and it was time to close the dormitories.

Of course, there are always some students who come back just before closing time, or even after closing time, and they beg and plead with the dormitory manager to let them off the hook.

The night grew quiet and still.

"boom--"

Suddenly, a loud bang rang out, sounding abrupt in the quiet night and startling many people.

The dormitory, which had been quiet, became noisy again.

"what sound?"

"A loud bang, it scared the hell out of me."

"It wasn't an explosion, was it?"

The students locked in their dormitories were naturally unaware of the situation, but that didn't stop them from going to the balcony to inquire, and the dormitory building suddenly became lively.

Seeing the dormitory supervisor come out with a flashlight, they couldn't help but shout and ask what was going on, which made the supervisor curse and tell them to go back to sleep.

Just then, a scream rang out: "A student has jumped off a building!"

This was like water being poured into boiling oil, causing an uproar in the dormitory building.

"Another person jumped off a building?"

"Holy crap, are you trying to stop me from sleeping?"

The dormitory building was locked, so there was no way to go out. I could only look out from the balcony while keeping an eye on the messages in the group chat on my phone, asking who had jumped off the building.

Many people also counted the number of people in their dormitories and reported the number in the group chat, trying to find out who jumped off the building in this way.

"I heard someone jumped off a building."

Sun Ling had just finished a battle of wits with Tan Ying and finally came upstairs. As soon as she opened the door, she heard Tu Weiwei's trembling voice and slammed the door shut.

“I heard it.” Sun Ling frowned. “I don’t know who it is, but the noise sounds like it’s coming from the boys’ dormitory.”

Meanwhile, A-Zhuang followed Tan Ying, listening to her mutter, "These students nowadays are really something, jumping off buildings at the drop of a hat, their resilience is too weak."

The dormitory supervisor's expression was indescribable. Considering Tan Ying's difficult personality, he ultimately didn't say anything more and just quickly walked towards the place where the commotion was.

Soon, a group of dormitory supervisors and school teachers arrived at the scene of the accident.

A boy was lying on the ground covered in blood. Emergency and police calls had been made, but everyone present felt the situation was not optimistic.

"Isn't this Jiang Yizhou?"

"Su Zhen's boyfriend," a dormitory supervisor whispered, immediately stirring up a wave of discussion.

"Could it be a suicide pact?"

Tan Ying's eyes widened as she pushed through the crowd, staring blankly at Jiang Yizhou. (End of Chapter)
