No, asking directly would reveal myself. If Bai Xiaoyun indeed has soone behind her, I would be moving from the shadows into the light, which is not good, not good at all.
I just need to wait patiently.
I’ll keep an eye on the people in contact with Bai Xiaoyun while also figuring out ways to tornt the scum, hoping to unveil more leaves from Bai Wu!
With a direction in mind, An Yan’s heart settled.
She currently knew that for Bai Wu to reveal new leaves, the person who was cheated on had to be the one to take action against the scumbag.
The scumbags she knew of were An Shing and her cronies.
Who should I start with?
An Yan held a pen, idly scribbling on a piece of paper.
An Shing’s tongue was almost healed. Today, she would et Xu Muwei, and then the two of them would kiss!
Why not arrange for Xu Muwei’s fiancé to witness the scene?
"Wen Ge, find a way to lead this person nad Wang Ziyu to ** Hospital, Respiratory Departnt, Room 1209, at exactly five o’clock!"
"Yes, Miss."
Wen Ge accepted the task and set off imdiately.
An Yan was very satisfied with her performance. She didn’t ask a single unnecessary question—very reliable!
「Four o’clock.」
「Hospital.」
An Shing lay on the hospital bed, her face pale. An IV was attached to her hand, and her body was covered in purplish bruises from the supposed collision. Of course, she had gritted her teeth and inflicted these on herself, all for the act that was about to unfold!
Once she confird everything was ready, An Shing took out her phone, composed herself, and called Xu Muwei.
"Weiwei, what should I do? I’ve been robbed! It hurts so much!"
"What?"
Xu Muwei, who received the call, jumped up from her computer. "Are you hurt? Did you see who robbed you? Did you call the police? Where are you now?"
"The hospital." An Shing’s voice was choked and uneven as she sobbed. "I didn’t even see who it was before I was knocked out. What should I do? What am I supposed to do now?"
"My thesis is also gone! BOOHOO! It’s all my fault, I’m the one to bla! Weiwei, what should I do? What am I supposed to do now? BOOHOO..."
Within fifteen minutes, Xu Muwei arrived at the hospital.
Seeing An Shing, Xu Muwei was so distressed that she rushed over and embraced her. "What happened?"
"It’s all my fault! Weiwei, it’s all my fault! The thesis was so hard to write, and now... I’ve lost it!"
"This isn’t the ti to talk about the thesis! Where are you hurt?" Xu Muwei pulled back her arm and examined her body.
Her elbow was scraped, her shoulder was a deep purple, and on her chest, a large bruise spread all the way to...
Xu Muwei’s breathing suddenly grew heavy. Noticing An Shing wasn’t looking, she quickly straightened her friend’s clothes.
"Um, don’t be too upset. The thesis isn’t just your concern. I’ll call Chen Xiangyu and the others. We can all discuss what to do next, okay?"
"Mhm." An Shing nodded, her eyes full of trust, then weakly leaned against the pillow and closed her eyes.
Xu Muwei was used to her delicate deanor and adored this ’sickly beauty’ act of hers. After An Shing closed her eyes, Xu Muwei pinched herself to tear her attention away.
anwhile, Chen Xiangyu and his girlfriend, Huang Suzi, were shopping in a mall near the hospital. They had co to this particular mall because it was sufficiently far from Luocheng University. Chen Xiangyu didn’t want Huang Suzi to et his classmates and friends. After all, at school, he maintained the image of a single man!
After receiving Xu Muwei’s call, Chen Xiangyu panicked for a mont. The thesis couldn’t have any problems! This was related to whether he could continue studying at Luocheng University!
"Sothing’s happened with a classmate. Suzi, go back to the hotel by yourself first. Once I’m done, I’ll co find you at the hotel directly," he said. Without waiting for Huang Suzi to respond, he hurried down the stairs.
As he walked, he called the other mbers of the thesis group, "We’re at ** Hospital. ngng has been hospitalized, and it seems the thesis is lost too. Everyone co over; let’s discuss what to do next..."
Huang Suzi leaned on the railing, watching him rush off as if attending a funeral. Moreover, hearing him say ’ngng’ instantly put her on high alert. She imdiately started following Chen Xiangyu.
Chen Xiangyu didn’t want to pay for a taxi, and since the hospital wasn’t too far, he walked briskly. By the ti he reached the hospital entrance, the other classmates had already arrived.
After listening to Xu Muwei’s account, everyone panicked.
"Where was she robbed?"
"This is outrageous! In broad daylight! How could soone dare to do such a thing?"
"ngng, how can you be so sure it was the thesis they were after? Maybe they just saw you had money and robbed your bag. Should we check the nearby trash cans, maybe..."
An Shing sobbed, "Because they demanded the thesis as soon as they saw ! Of course, I refused, and they knocked out!"
Chen Xiangyu’s expression turned grave. "They went straight for the thesis. It must have been An Yan and her group!"
"I don’t know." An Shing’s face was pale as she coughed up a mouthful of blood weakly. "After they knocked down, I passed out. Then... COUGH, COUGH... when I woke up, I found myself near the city moat. It was a very secluded place, with no surveillance caras or even any passersby..."
"It’s definitely An Yan and the others!" Xu Muwei interjected. "Who else would be interested in our thesis but them?"
Chen Xiangyu nodded in agreent. "I think so too."
An Shing said, "Regardless of who it was, the problem we face now is, if we can’t submit the thesis on ti..." Tears stread down An Shing’s face as anxiety overwheld her. "It’s all my fault. If it weren’t for , you all wouldn’t have to suffer like this."
Seeing her coughing up blood yet still worried about the thesis, the others felt a little ashad.
"ngng, focus on your health first. The thesis isn’t urgent."
"Yeah, I’ve noticed An Yan and the others haven’t been talking much lately. They haven’t been working together either. Maybe they had a falling out. Anyway, you just focus on getting better. Once you’ve recovered, we can start over on a new one."
"They’re not talking anymore? Why?" An Shing asked curiously.
"I don’t know why, but An Yan is completely ignoring Su Siming and Liang Chen now! She only hangs out with Mu Enyu!"
"Yes, that’s right! I saw Su Siming try to go to the lab to find An Yan, but Liang Chen stopped him. Liang Chen said that since she was unwilling, there was no need to keep pushing it. Then, the very next day, word got out that Su Siming and Liang Chen had left for so competition. We have no idea what they went to compete in."
"Whatever they’re competing in, if they’ve really fallen out, they definitely won’t be able to write the thesis. That ans we’ll have ti to work on a new one."
"Right."
Everyone looked at An Shing with anticipation.
An Shing raised her hand to her head. "But I... my head hurts whenever I think about anything... If it weren’t for this, I wouldn’t have told you all about it."
Her head hurt whenever she tried to think about anything complex... Did this an she couldn’t even recall the thesis from mory anymore?
