Don't cry, baby. I'll punish you tonight.

The morning was full of classes. Lin Qinghuan and Wen Yijing attended all of them, while Yan Xia and Jian Yan only attended three or four classes.

After the four of them finished their meal, they went back to the dormitory together for a nap.

Lin Qinghuan secretly applied burn ointment on herself in bed, but the skin on her hands was still ulcerated and looked a little hideous.

"Knock knock" There was a knock on the dormitory door, and Wen Yijing went to open it.

"Huanhuan, is there a schoolgirl looking for you?" Wen Yijing turned around and called.

Schoolgirl? Schoolgirl from the club?

Lin Qinghuan hurriedly got out of bed and walked to the door. She didn't recognize the person who came.

"Hello, senior sister!" the girl called sweetly, staring at Lin Qinghuan in front of her, and sighed that this senior sister was really tall, thin, fair and beautiful, and she was really a good match for Luo Zhouran.

The two walked to the corridor to talk, and the dormitory door was closed.

"Hello, junior, did you find the wrong person?" Lin Qinghuan asked gently.

The schoolgirl shook her head and said, "Senior sister, Zhou Ran asked me to come find you. He is waiting for you downstairs now. He ran away from home secretly."

Escape?

Lin Qinghuan nodded and went downstairs with her schoolmate.

"Senior, don't be affected by those rumors, okay? Those people are just jealous of your beauty."

Lin Qinghuan was stunned.

The junior schoolgirl probably felt that she had said something wrong and shouldn’t have mentioned this matter, so she quickly apologized, “Senior schoolgirl…yes…I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to bring this up, I just wanted to comfort you.”

Lin Qinghuan chuckled, and tears of emotion welled up in her eyes immediately, but she didn't cry, otherwise it would be too embarrassing. "Thank you, sister. I thought only my roommate believed me."

"No, senior sister, not everyone is blind. We all support you in the dormitory."

People who spread obscene rumors about girls deserve to die.

Those who just follow the crowd, have no judgment of their own, and go with the flow, are both stupid and pathetic.

Lin Qinghuan went back to the dormitory and got a baseball cap.

Wen Yijing poked her head out, "Want to go out?"

"Ah."

The person who came to see her was a schoolmate. Wen Yijing didn't think much about it. She retracted her head behind the curtain and continued doing her own thing.

...

Luo Zhouran stood at the door of the girls' dormitory. Seeing Lin Qinghuan and Liu Yueyue coming out together, he immediately walked over. Almost instinctively, he wanted to hug Lin Qinghuan. He stretched out his hand, but immediately retracted it.

It's so heartbreaking. Although he was wearing a baseball cap, Lin Qinghuan looked very haggard.

"Thank you Yueyue." Luo Zhouran said to the girl.

"I've made an appointment for you, remember to buy me some milk tea."

Luo Zhouran nodded repeatedly.

"I'm leaving."

They waved goodbye to Liu Yueyue together.

Then, the air inexplicably became quiet.

Lin Qinghuan spoke up, "Let's go to the cafe and chat?"

She has become too famous recently. If it weren't for classes or meals, she would stay at home whenever possible. All kinds of looks made her feel uncomfortable all over.

Luo Zhouran nodded, "My car is behind your dormitory."

cafes.

They used to play games together here, but looking back now, many things have changed.

Lin Qinghuan spoke first, "My schoolmate said you sneaked out?"

The word "sneak" is very ambiguous.

"Well, my dad asked me to study abroad. He wouldn't let me go out until the paperwork was done, and he also confiscated all my communication tools."

So, he ran away secretly.

"Lin Qinghuan, I didn't want to study abroad at all. It was my senior who forced my dad to send me away. My dad had a project that required a large sum of money, so he sold me out to do his so-called project."

Huh? Selling one's son for fame, Luo Zhouran felt indescribably bitter.

So this is what He Yanlang meant when he said, “Don’t even think about seeing Luo Zhouran again in your life.”

With a little trickery, you can easily decide a person's life.

Lin Qinghuan was silent, and her silence was a reflection of her self-blame.

After a long time, she spoke, "Studying abroad is good. Famous universities abroad are much better than those in China." This was the only benefit of studying abroad she could think of.

She knew that Luo Zhouran didn't hate studying abroad. What he hated was that his life was controlled by someone else, who was irrelevant to him.

Perhaps, even without He Yanlang, his family would have arranged for him to study abroad to gain experience.

But if He Yanlang took action, the nature of the matter would be different, and it would be a matter of whether to go or not.

She understood the feeling of powerlessness that came with this kind of thing.

"Zhou Ran..." As Lin Qinghuan spoke, tears began to flow unconsciously. She raised her hand to wipe them away, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

Luo Zhouran had sharp eyes and looked at the wound on the back of Lin Qinghuan's hand. Her skin was originally fair, and the burnt flesh looked particularly hideous, with a large area of ​​red around it.

"What happened to your hand?" Luo Zhouran grabbed her hand and asked worriedly, "Did you get burned? How did you get burned?"

“It’s okay…it’s okay…” Lin Qinghuan quickly pulled his hand away, “I accidentally bumped into someone’s cigarette butt.”

Hitting someone's cigarette butt? Would a kid believe this?

Luo Zhouran's eyes turned fierce. He remembered that He Yanlang also smoked. "Did he burn it for you?"

"No...no..." Lin Qinghuan explained quickly, "Zhou Ran, what are you thinking? He Yanlang has not been in Beijing for the past few days. He was just walking and playing with his phone, and bumped into someone's cigarette butt."

Luo Zhouran still looked unconvinced.

He knew that if Lin Qinghuan didn't want to say something, she wouldn't say it even if you put a knife to her neck.

"Huh? As soon as your rumor got out, he was not in Beijing. He really knows how to choose the time to leave and clear himself of all charges." Luo Zhouran clenched his fist and slammed the table out of control. The coffee in the cup on the table shook and some spilled onto the table.

Lin Qinghuan took out a tissue and quietly cleaned the coffee stains on the table.

Luo Zhouran hated his own powerlessness. He couldn't beat He Yanlang. He didn't have as much money or power as He Yanlang. He could do nothing but hate himself here.

"Huanhuan, I posted a clarification on the forum, but it was deleted right after it was posted...Someone is deliberately doing this behind the scenes. They don't need the truth at all, they just want to take advantage of others."

He really tried hard and wanted to clarify for Lin Qinghuan.

She didn't have two relationships at the same time, she didn't date him, and she didn't confess to He Yanlang. It was them, the two older boys, who were pestering her.

No one cares what the truth is, and sometimes the truth may even cost more.

Lin Qinghuan faked a smile, "Zhou Ran, I've already called the police. Don't worry, the person who spread the rumor won't get away."

Although she was obviously feeling miserable and depressed and wanted to die, Lin Qinghuan could always appear happy and calm on the surface, as if nothing had happened.

She always habitually makes people think she is happy and disguises her emotions.

"Hey? Isn't this my second brother's little cutie? My brother can't satisfy you, so let's change someone else."

Luo Zhouran and Lin Qinghuan looked up at the same time, and saw He Yanyu in a printed shirt, followed by one, two, three, four, a total of four girls!
