Chen Zifan interrupted him. “All I know is that children who are born out of wedlock are called illegitimate children. Her parents being in love with each other means jack sh*t to me.”
The crowd. “…”
Shen Zhilan felt as if she had been slapped on the face. She clenched her fist tightly and looked into Chen Zifan’s eyes with anger and disappointment.
She suddenly turned and ran out of the classroom with red eyes.
Chen Zifan frowned at the situation. His gaze swept across the room as he slowly said, “All the mistresses in this world say that they’re their lover’s ‘true love’. I can’t believe that you all actually swallowed that she said!”
After he finished speaking, he dropped his head on the desk and swiftly fell asleep.
When the students heard this, they began to talk in private.
Shen Yugui witnessed the entire scene. Zhang Qianqian leaned in and whispered, “Chen Zifan looks pretty cool today, doesn’t he?”
At least, even though the whole class had been hoodwinked, he still had his own judgment.
Shen Yugui nodded.
She never thought that Chen Zifan would stand up for her.
She had originally intended to let Shen Zhilan put on a good show, but Chen Zifan’s words were more convincing than hers! He did her a favor.
There were no other classes that day other than the one in the morning.
Shen Yugui and Zhang Qianqian had lunch before returning to the girls’ dormitory. Just as they entered the corridor, they heard the dorm caretaker lady’s voice behind them. “Hey, I’m talking to you! Stop there! This is the girls’ dorm. Boys aren’t allowed here!”
Shen Yugui looked back and saw a boy rushing in.
His face was red and he looked furious. His head whipped left and right until he found Room 125, and he raised a hand to beat the door. “Shen Zhilan, come out!”
Shen Yugui was stunned. She knew this boy. He was another member of Chen Zifan’s team in the competition as well as a classmate of their Class One. His name was Yang Ming.
Recently, he stayed up with Chen Zifan and slept during class, which was why she noticed him.
What was he doing here now?
While she was thinking, the dorm caretaker came up to him and grabbed him by the arm, trying to drag him out. Yang Ming struggled and continued to curse at the door of Room 125. “Shen Zhilan, if you’re really capable, why don’t you dare to come out and face me? Are you guilty?”
With that sentence, the door to Room 125 opened.
Shen Zhilan, wearing a nightgown, emerged from inside and said, “Yang Ming, I have nothing to say to you.”
The dorm caretaker tried to stop them, but Yang Ming’s eyes grew red and his voice choked up. “How could you do this to us! Shen Zhilan, how could you do this to Chen Zifan!”
Immediately after, a tired voice said, “Yang Ming, that’s enough. Forget it.”
Shen Yugui turned and saw that Chen Zifan had also entered the girls’ dormitory.
He looked exhausted as if a layer of skin had been peeled away from him. He looked dejected and depressed.
Yang Ming could not endure it anymore. The 1.75-meter-tall boy cried, making those that heard him feel sad on his behalf. “We worked so hard for more than half a year and finally came with a design for the competition. How could you just steal it like that, Shen Zhilan!”
“You actually went to the people of Class Two and made a new team, and then you went to the teacher in charge to apply for the Information Competition. You know that only one team from each school can participate! What’s this supposed to mean?! You took our design and plan to fight us over it?”
