"You, your na is Shi Yaoguang?!"
Chen Shu's face was a picture of totally shattered worldviews, "You're that Shi Yaoguang?!"
Shi Yaoguang revealed a bewildered expression, "I am Shi Yaoguang, is there a problem?"
Chen Shu still looked dazed, "It must be a case of sa na, right?"
It had to be.
If it wasn't a case of the sa na, how disillusioning that would be!
As if not noticing his thoughts, Shi Yaoguang continued to explain, "It shouldn't be a case of the sa na, in the entire school, there is only one person nad Shi Yaoguang."
Chen Shu's Adam's apple bobbed as he swallowed, "You, do you an to say, you are the real daughter that the Shi Family found last year? The one who married Quan Family's Third Master just a few days ago?!"
Shi Yaoguang nodded, her cheeks flushing with a hint of shyness.
Chen Shu: "..."
At this mont, he really didn't know what to say.
He and Jiu Yanchuan both knew Quan Jinbei and were even closer to him than most.
They knew Quan Jinbei had an adopted son who was six years younger than him.
The relationship between Quan Jinbei and his adopted son wasn't close, and their connection was more because of the Quan Family's old man's intentions.
According to the old man, Quan Jinbei was in poor health, and if anything were to happen in the future, it would be a huge blow to the family, so they had to be prepared in advance.
Quan Sicheng was the heir the old man had personally inspected and chosen to take over in the future.
Chen Shu rembered asking Quan Jinbei before if he, as the foster father, would attend his adopted son's engagent to the Shi Family's real daughter.
The answer Quan Jinbei gave at the ti was no, he wouldn't go.
His relationship with Quan Sicheng was just so-so, and besides, it was just an engagent, not a marriage, there really wasn't a need for him to attend.
Thinking about it, Chen Shu felt if even Quan Jinbei wasn't going, then there was no need for him to join in the excitent either.
So he missed the real drama.
Afterward, when he heard so people talking about the gossips between the Quan and Shi families, he was completely dumbfounded.
How did Quan Sicheng's fiancée suddenly beco Quan Jinbei's new wife?
Even more absurd, when he went to verify with Quan Jinbei, it turned out to be true!
He asked Quan Jinbei why he made such a decision.
The answer he got was...
Trust her.
Trust her?
Chen Shu's mind replayed those three words Quan Jinbei had said at the ti, over and over.
Looking again at the young girl hugging her knees and curling up into a ball, his face was a picture of indescribable complexity.
Shi Yaoguang, made uncomfortable by his strange gaze, hesitantly began, "School doctor, why are you staring at like that? Is there sothing wrong with my identity?"
"No, nothing's wrong. I was just too shocked." Chen Shu said, his expression serious, "That is... what exactly is going on between you and Third Master?"
"Um..." Shi Yaoguang sighed, "Probably because Third Master is a good man, I guess."
Chen Shu: "What do you an?"
Third Master is a good person? That's probably the coldest joke ever.
Shi Yaoguang's face blushed with embarrassnt, "That day was supposed to be my engagent to Quan Sicheng, but he got involved with my sister..."
Chen Shu wore a look as if you were joking with him, "You can't possibly an that Third Master got together with you because your fiancé dumped you, right?"
Shi Yaoguang nodded, her eyes filled with sincerity, "That's why I say Third Master is a good person."
Chen Shu: "..."
"I'm not running a garbage recycling plant. Since Quan Sicheng is now tainted, naturally, I wouldn't want him. It just so happened that Jinbei is young and promising, a perfect match for , so I had a quick wedding with him."
"I think, Jinbei agreed to be with to fulfill my wish of becoming Quan Sicheng's mother."
When Shi Yaoguang said this, she looked utterly innocent.
Chen Shu had no idea what to say as he looked at the seductively charming young girl in front of him, his heart was truly at a loss for words.
The reason for her quick marriage to Quan Jinbei probably had sothing to do with Quan Jinbei's private arrangents.
As for other possibilities, Chen Shu firmly disbelieved them.
When Quan Jinbei initially said he believed Shi Yaoguang, he must have been humoring him.
And as for Shi Yaoguang's naive statent that Quan Jinbei is a good person, Chen Shu was even more incredulous.
To those under his wing, Quan Jinbei is exceedingly good, it wouldn't be an overstatent to say he's overprotective. To outsiders, though, he is an apocalyptic Shura.
Without so iron-fisted thods, the Quan Family wouldn't be so firmly under his control.
Shi Yaoguang had no clue that Chen Shu conjured up so many thoughts.
Even if she knew, she couldn't be bothered to explain.
Chen Shu had no expectations for her to say anything. Seeing that she was leaving, he quickly said, "I'm actually headed to the principal's office myself, let's go together."
Shi Yaoguang did not refuse, and the two of them walked slowly forward.
Mainly because Chen Shu was accommodating to the "seriously injured" Shi Yaoguang and could only maintain a steady snail's pace. Fortunately, An Xu and his crew were still making a fuss, so the drama in the principal's office had not yet ended.
"We really didn't do anything to her! It was her, she used so trick to make us hit our own, and I'm still in pain from it!"
Soone sneered, "We saw with our own eyes how she was faint and being carried away. Even if you want to argue your case, could you at least make it logical?"
"She wasn't beaten up, the wounds on her face were painted on with makeup, she deliberately did her makeup in front of us!"
As Yu Zhenzhen's words fell, Shi Yaoguang stood at the door, looking frail.
Compared to the illogical, robust manner of her earlier defense, Shi Yaoguang's tottering appearance made her look very much like a delicate, unsupported dodder flower.
Between the two, it was clear who to believe.
When Jiu Yanchuan saw Shi Yaoguang co over, his expression soured, and he glanced sideways at Chen Shu, "What are you doing bringing her here? She's still injured."
A hint of grievance showed on Chen Shu, "Which eye of yours sees that I brought her? Clearly, I was just worried about the young girl walking alone, so I followed her, alright?"
"Shi Yaoguang!" Yu Zhenzhen suddenly shouted, "Shi Yaoguang, co and explain to everyone! We didn't lay a finger on you, help us prove our innocence!"
Shi Yaoguang looked astonished, "Prove innocence?"
"Hmph." Then she scoffed, making no secret of her dissatisfaction, "You gang up to bully and still want to clear things up for you? Innocent? Do you even have it?"
Yu Zhenzhen looked utterly perplexed as she heard her continue, "You used to bully , and I never said a word, not because I was afraid of you."
"It's just..." She paused, revealing a sorrowful expression, "I just didn't want to make things ugly out of regard for our shared ti as classmates."
"Who knew you had reached a point of being incorrigibly bad... Just because today Nie Feng tried to hit on the head with a basketball, and I dodged it, which spoiled your fun and made you demand an apology from Nie Feng, you got upset, intentionally trapped in a blind spot of the surveillance, and wanted to put to death!"
