Chapter 75 Two days later, the news spread…

Two days later, the story became increasingly outrageous.

Jiang Can, the new campus belle of the Chinese Literature Department, is being kept by a 50-year-old middle-aged tycoon who has bought her an apartment in Times Square and a 210-square-meter shop. He also frequently drives to pick her up and drop her off.

Jiang Can bribed Xu Jiazhen, a senior student at the design institute, to design her love nest in Times Square.

Senior student Xu Jiazhen angrily refused.

Jiang Can then hooked up with Fang Heng, a second-year student at a design institute, to help design their love nest. During the day, she seduced the young and strong Fang Heng, and at night she seduced the old and frail wealthy boss.

However, Jiang Can and Fang Heng themselves were unaware of this.

Fang Heng was extremely busy every day. When he didn't have classes, he would go to Times Huafu and would often take the renderings to the professors to avoid any problems that could be avoided.

The professor also learned that he had taken on the design of a shop of more than 200 square meters.

Fang Heng also asked Jiang Can if he could handle the shop's renovation, promising to renovate it better at a lower market price.

Seeing how much he cared, Jiang Can didn't contact the contractor and handed everything over to Fang Heng directly.

He also told Fang Heng, "Keep up the good work. If you do a good job, I'll install the rest of the houses for you."

Fang Heng: !!!

"Sister Cancan, how many sets do you have left?"

Jiang Can: "Several sets are needed. Get this set out first, and hurry up, I'm waiting for the opening."

Fang Heng: "Sister, leave it to me, I guarantee you'll be satisfied."

He would update Jiang Can on the renovation progress every day, such as today they knocked down a wall, they were working on the plumbing and electrical work, and it was time to look at the tiles. He would ask Jiang Can when he could come over to take a look. Jiang Can was too afraid to leave the school now and was also busy on weekends, so he left everything to Fang Heng and asked him to choose tiles according to the renovation style they had discussed.

Keep the total renovation cost below 30,000 yuan.

After Fang Heng had someone look into the tile market, he went to look at tiles.

On Thursday afternoon, Jiang Can attended a large class. She noticed that several students were looking at her with hostility, strange and contemptuous eyes, as if she had done something that would anger heaven and earth.

It felt like I was back in the class of repeat students when I was framed.

Is someone targeting her?

She and her roommate found a place to sit down, but as soon as they sat down, the two girls next to them seemed to have touched something dirty and quickly moved away with their textbooks.

Several classmates in front and behind also left with their textbooks, whispering among themselves.

Jiang Can's surroundings consisted only of his roommates and a few classmates; the rest of the area was empty.

Lu Man's anger surged, and she threw down her textbook and followed them: "What are you doing? Can't we sit down here? Why are you hiding?"

No one spoke. Lu Man stared at the two girls who had left first, then stood in front of them and said, "Say something."

One of the girls didn't dare to say anything, but the other girl said, "You guys don't mind being dirty, yet you sit with someone like that. We, on the other hand, find it disgusting. You even brought that kind of entertainment industry stuff to school, dressed so glamorous, but behind the scenes you're doing those kinds of things. You should be expelled immediately." Her eyes kept glancing at Jiang Can.

Lu Man was furious. "Who are you looking at? Where are you looking! Don't try this."

Shen Yunxi: "What kind of good person speaks in riddles and crypts?"

Xia Kexin: "They openly show contempt and disdain to your face, and then whisper and gossip behind your back. They're already in college, and they're still engaging in bullying. How childish!"

Wen Lan frowned.

The calculus professor entered the classroom with his textbook in his hand. Xi Jiawen went straight to the professor and said, "Professor Wen, as soon as we entered the classroom, they isolated us, whispered among themselves about children, and said we were dirty, of low character, and were doing those kinds of things behind our backs. Professor, could you please ask them for us what kind of things we were doing?"

Professor Wen thought this was quite serious, so he went to the podium and put his textbook on the lectern.

Before class, I first resolve the students' legal disputes.

The two girls' eyes were red. They didn't expect them to tell the teacher directly. The girl with the ponytail said, "Jiang Can has the nerve to do it, but I'm too embarrassed to say it."

Professor Wen: "Don't be shy about speaking up. How am I supposed to know if you're right or wrong if you don't tell me? Don't waste time, or I won't be able to finish before I'm dismissed."

Several classmates were talking amongst themselves, saying that Jiang Can had hooked up with a wealthy man in his fifties, who bought her an apartment and a shop. She even wanted to get a senior from the design institute to design their love nest, but the senior, being of high moral character, refused. So, she hooked up with a senior from the design institute to design their love nest for her.

I spend my days with my senior classmates and my nights with my old man.

Professor Wen was dumbfounded.

A tall boy said, "These students, I am Wu Yong, the class monitor of Class 3. First of all, you are wrong about one thing. Jiang Can's attendance rate is perfect. He attends morning classes and evening self-study sessions. The claim that he accompanied the senior during the day is unfounded."

Xi Jiawen then stepped forward: "I am the dormitory head of 312. Jiang Can rests in the dormitory every night, so the claim that he spends the night with the old man is unfounded."

Wen Lan: "Did you even investigate? You're making up all sorts of nonsense about such a simple thing. You just open your mouth and start spouting nonsense all over the world?"

Lu Man rolled her eyes so hard they almost reached the sky. "You want to marry a rich guy to buy apartments and shops? Does our Cancan need to marry a rich guy? Our Cancan is rich herself. Did you really get into Huada University on your own? I suggest the school investigate. With your IQs, you don't seem like you could get into Huada University at all. Are your brains even the size of walnuts?"

Xia Kexin: "What design love nest?! The apartments in Times Huafu are all fully furnished, you can move in with just your bags, why would they need design? It's Cancan's shops that need design and decoration, but can shops be called love nests? Tell me, which senior student refused to design a love nest?"

Shen Yunxi: "Quickly tell me, which senior is who!"

Professor Wen listened with great interest.

Several people then revealed Xu Jiazhen's name.

Many students in Class 3 started making sarcastic remarks about the brainless students in Class 1 and Class 2. The Chinese Literature Department students were all very sharp-tongued, and they made these students wish they could disappear into the ground.

Seeing how much her classmates and roommates were protecting her, Jiang Can couldn't help but smile. This time, she had so many people around her.

She walked from her seat to the podium. "First, there's no wealthy patron or senior student involved. I'm married; my husband studies at the Henan Provincial Public Security University, and my roommate has met him. Second, I'm not poor and don't need to be a sugar daddy. I bought all the properties in Times Square myself—the apartments are for living, and the shops are for my hot pot restaurant. I also have other shops in the university town, which will be renovated and opened for business soon. Third, for the shop design and renovation, I hired Fang Heng, a senior from the design institute, and Mo Yunxi, a third-year law student, to draft the contract." She smiled. "We're all adults here. Think before you speak and act. Don't be a fool who gets used as a pawn without even realizing it…"

Xi Jiawen: !!!

The other students in Class 3 chimed in, "Use your brains!"

Most of the classmates who had previously doubted Jiang Can blushed with embarrassment and lowered their heads, not daring to look at Jiang Can again.

Jiang Can: "Professor Wen, please begin your lesson."

Professor Wen glanced at Jiang Can a few more times. This girl was not only beautiful, but also quite outstanding. He coughed lightly twice and prepared to start the class.

After class, Jiang Can asked her roommate to help her with her textbooks and headed straight to the design institute.

I don't know where this story came from, but it's not wrong to look for Xu Jiazhen.

Lu Man and her friends quickly followed, as did the other students from Class 3, partly to see the gossip, and partly to make sure their classmates didn't get the short end of the stick.

After asking around, everyone learned that Xu Jiazhen was taking a class in Building B.

When Jiang Can arrived at the classroom, it was still during the long break. He saw Xu Jiazhen tugging at Fang Heng's clothes. Fang Heng was so angry that his face turned red and he ripped off his clothes. Xu Jiazhen fell to the ground and started crying.

Xu Jiazhen's friend accused Fang Heng of hitting a female classmate, leaving Fang Heng bewildered: "I didn't hit her!"

Jiang Can entered the classroom at this time.

All eyes were on her, and the classroom fell silent.

Jiang Can: "I'm Jiang Can from Class 3 of the Chinese Department. I'd like to ask Senior Xu Jiazhen a few questions. Senior, I once asked you to help me renovate and design my 200-square-meter shop. It wasn't a love nest, is that true?"

Before Xu Jiazhen spoke, she said, "The apartment I bought in Times Huafu is fully furnished. I am very satisfied with the decoration and have purchased household items. I do not plan to renovate it again."

Xu Jiazhen bit her lip, her whole body trembling: "I won't decorate for you. I studied design, not to decorate storefronts for people! I want to work at the Central Institute of Design!"

Fang Heng rolled his eyes so hard they almost reached the sky, and the expressions on the faces of several classmates also looked rather strange.

Jiang Can: "I'm sorry, I didn't know your ideals and ambitions, and I insulted you with a small shop. I apologize again." She continued to ask, "So, what I asked you to help design was a shop, not a love nest, right?"

Xu Jiazhen nodded unsteadily: "Yes."

Jiang Can: "Since the parties involved have already admitted that there is no love nest, only shops, then I would like to clarify three points."

She repeated the three points she had made in the classroom earlier.

Finally, he said, "This is my last clarification. I didn't call the police out of consideration for our alumni relationship. I hope those classmates who spread the rumors will take responsibility for clarifying things for me. If any more rumors affect me, I will call the police directly. Everyone has their own judgment; think about who has been used as a pawn."

Xu Jiazhen felt everyone's gaze on her, and she cried, "Junior, I didn't say any of that, I don't know anything."

Lu Man: "Why are you crying? Do you think you're right to cry? Can Can asked you for help, it's not like she wouldn't pay you, why did you have to spread rumors about her? And make sure the whole school knows! You're just an innocent little white flower, you're innocent, you're high and mighty, you didn't know the truth, but now that you know, have you apologized to Can Can?"

Xu Jiazhen cried, "I'm sorry, Jiang Can, I don't know anything. I really didn't say those things. You have to believe me."

A female classmate said, "Xu Jiazhen, I've heard you say this before. You cried in the department's student union, and when people asked you what was wrong, you said that Jiang Can had humiliated you with money. Later, you cried in class, saying that you didn't want to design a love nest for Jiang Can."

Xu Jiazhen stared wide-eyed, tears streaming down her face: "I didn't! Don't frame me!"

Some people have also said that they heard Xu Jiazhen say similar, seemingly plausible but ultimately untrue things.

Jiang Can was speechless. He thought there was some other trick up his sleeve, but it turned out to be Xu Jiazhen. What's wrong with his brain?

Now that we've found the people who spread the rumors, let's report it to the department.

As the school bell rang, Fang Heng said one last thing: "Sister Cancan is my boss, my mentor. I thank Sister Cancan for trusting me and entrusting me with this job. Design knows no bounds, whether it's a thatched hut, an apartment building, a shop, a courtyard house, a villa, or a shopping mall, I cherish every opportunity." He then said to Xu Jiazhen, "I was just pulling on my clothes, I didn't hit you!"

Jiang Can is his boss!!! Anyone who talks nonsense is blocking his path to wealth, and he'll fight them!!!

Jiang Can and Fang Heng left the classroom together. There were many students from other classes waiting outside. When they saw Jiang Can, they said to her, "Junior, we'll help you clear things up!"

Jiang Can thanked everyone and left the teaching building with the students from Class 3.

Jiang Can thanked everyone for their help and invited them to eat hot pot in the cafeteria. Of course, no one would accept Jiang Can's offer for free, so they naturally disagreed. Classmates should help each other, and they told Jiang Can not to take it to heart.

Lu Man organized a dinner for everyone that evening: "Can Can is incredibly generous, we don't need to skimp on her money. Our class hasn't had a get-together yet, let's invite Feng Ge along, and let's all have a get-together as a class of three. Come on, everyone, say thank you to Can Can!"

"Thank you, Can Can!"

That's settled then, we agreed to meet at five o'clock.

Jiang Can first went to his counselor, Hu Yifeng, and told him the whole story.

Teacher Hu told Jiang Can not to worry about it anymore. He said he would communicate with the design institute and would not let Jiang Can be bullied for nothing.

After finishing their business, Jiang Can invited Teacher Hu to have hot pot together that evening, and Teacher Hu readily agreed.

She first went to the hot pot restaurant and reserved seven tables with the owner, and then discussed the dishes, including freshly sliced ​​beef and mutton, mutton rolls, beef rolls, black chicken rolls, tripe, beef aorta, honeycomb tripe, duck intestines and other meats, as well as garland chrysanthemum, green vegetables, cabbage, enoki mushrooms and other vegetables.

Girls have small appetites, so they can share any leftovers with the boys.

She also arranged with the owner that she would ask the barbecue restaurant owner to send some more seafood barbecue.

Of course the boss agreed. If he hadn't, Jiang Can would have gone to another hot pot restaurant! Such a big customer! The restaurant's stock wasn't enough. They had to hurry and buy ingredients. Luckily, there was plenty of time.

Jiang Can paid enough for the food in advance, and will refund any excess.

Then I called a barbecue restaurant outside the school to order seafood barbecue, mainly spicy crayfish, spicy crab, spicy razor clams, garlic grilled oysters and lamb skewers, one serving per table, and asked the owner to deliver it to the hot pot restaurant at five o'clock.

Before five o'clock, all the students in Class 3 had arrived, and Fang Heng, his roommate, and Mo Yunxi also came over.

When Fang Heng went to find Xu Jiazhen, his roommates also went to the classroom to support him, but they were all very weak.

After a short while, Teacher Hu Yifeng arrived, bringing two boxes of ice cream and several boxes of chilled soda.

The male students in the class, carrying ice cream and soda, formed a large group and went to the hot pot restaurant.

There are 36 students in the class. Including Feng Ge, Fang Heng and his roommates, and Mo Yunxi, there are seven tables in total, with six people per table, which is more than enough.

As soon as everyone sat down and each grabbed an ice cream to eat, the barbecue restaurant brought over steaming hot barbecue, seven servings of the same kind, one serving per table, so everyone could eat the barbecue first.

The students truly felt Jiang Can's extravagance.

They said they'd treat us to hot pot, but the barbecue served before the hot pot was really expensive.

How much does all this barbecue cost...?

Never mind the price, just eat!

Instead of alcohol, the teachers and students of Class 3 drank a glass of soda first.

Since we had barbecue, how could we not have some beer? The owner brought out several more cases of beer, and Teacher Hu shouted, "Drink less beer and eat more vegetables."

The hot pot broth was served, and the dishes were gradually brought out. I thought that with hot pot, there wouldn't be many dishes, but there were just as many dishes as I expected.

The girls complained that there was too much food and asked that some be returned, and that no more dishes that hadn't been served yet be brought out.

The boss definitely wouldn't want that. Everything's already prepared, so hurry up and serve it all up; once it's on the table, it can't be taken away.

The meat and vegetables that the girls couldn't finish were given to the boys. The boys, who were in their early twenties, had huge appetites and ate as much as they wanted, finishing the whole thing.

In the end, the boss even gave Jiang Can a discount and refunded part of the money.

Lu Man exclaimed, "Let's go, I'll treat everyone to karaoke!"

Okay, this guy is definitely not short of money.

Everyone had drunk beer and was still quite tipsy, shouting, "Thank you, Miss Lu, let's go."

Hu Yifeng stopped them, saying that since they had all drunk beer, they shouldn't go outside the school. If they wanted to sing, they should go to the playground and sing however they wanted. He also told them to call the two most talented students in the class to go back and get their guitars.

There's no shortage of music.

Everyone went to the playground, and a group of people sat on the rubber track, singing one song after another. When the guitar was brought over, they sang even more happily.

Everyone reluctantly returned to their dormitories just before the doors closed.

Lu Man was having so much fun that she was still singing in her dorm room until her voice was hoarse. She even said she would treat everyone to karaoke next time.

Jiang Can took his mobile phone to the balcony to call Shen Lang back.

She was anxious to know what had happened to the Shen family couple.

What happened next was that Shen Weizhong and Zhao Yufen, a married couple, used medical records for depression and bipolar disorder to blackmail the director of the military hospital, claiming that the separation from their child had caused them daily torment, damaging their physical and mental health, and that this damage could not be compensated by a mere 5,000 yuan; they now demanded 500,000 yuan!

It doesn't necessarily have to be 500,000; there's no way they could actually give that much.

They would agree to a sum of 50,000 or 100,000.

Five thousand yuan is definitely not enough; that's like giving money to a beggar.

They threw a tantrum at the hospital entrance, determined to get more money than they could ever spend in their lifetime.

As a result, the mental hospital's van arrived at the entrance of the military hospital, where several doctors and nurses got out and tied Shen Weizhong and Zhao Yufen into the van.

Zhao Yufen was a formidable fighter; even the doctors and nurses couldn't hold them down. In the end, they had to be given two sedatives before they could damage the van.

Someone reported that two mentally ill people were causing a scene at the military hospital, seriously affecting the patients there.

Shen Weizhong and his wife are not wronged at all. They have mental illness certificates in their pockets and should be sent to a mental hospital for treatment.

Jiang Can laughed non-stop, "Those two are really too clever for their own good, actually coming up with such an idea. What a pity, aren't they just sending themselves to a mental hospital? Once they get out of the mental hospital, they probably won't dare to ask for 500,000 anymore."

Shen Lang laughed, telling Shen Weizhong and Zhao Yufen to "enjoy their happiness" in the mental hospital. He then added, "Xie Xun is very easy to get along with, unlike the Shen couple who are so barbaric and vicious. He takes after the Xie family. Xie Xun told me a lot about Xie Yun. Xie Yun is very outstanding and has been very capable since childhood. I just don't know where she is training now, whether it's safe, or whether it's tiring."

Xie Xun said that being a soldier is very dangerous. I am very worried about Xie Yun and want to call her.

I have never met this older brother who looks so much like me, and I don't know where he is or how far away he is from me.

Xie Xun also told me that twins have a telepathic connection, and asked if I could sense Xie Yun's location. I tried for a long time, but I couldn't sense her.

Jiang Can pondered Shen Lang's words, "Ah Lang is so amazing, so handsome, so smart, and so strong. Big Brother must be just as amazing as Ah Lang!!! Don't worry, Big Brother will come back sooner or later."

Shen Lang said wistfully, "Yes." He then inquired about the progress of the renovation of Times Mansion.

Jiang Can: "Renovating is too troublesome, so I asked a classmate from the design department to help me keep track of the progress. The plumbing and electrical work has been completed, and the tiles have been selected. We'll start laying them in the next few days. My classmate is very dedicated, and the progress is very fast. We should be able to open for business in two months at most."

The two lingered for a while longer, but their conversations were all half-hearted; they didn't dare to say their true feelings over the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Can pondered Shen Lang's words.

Their phone calls must have been tapped, otherwise how could Shen Weizhong and Zhao Yufen have so conveniently used the tactic of mental illness to get themselves into a mental hospital?

Shen Lang doesn't need to do anything; even if Old Madam Xie doesn't let Shen Weizhong and his wife have an easy time in the mental hospital.

This vicious couple who abused Shen Lang throughout his childhood deserve to be punished.

Shen Lang also mentioned Xie Yun.

Xie Xun wants to know Xie Yun's contact information and address!

Xie Yun is no ordinary person; he is a genius among geniuses. The confidential mission he is currently participating in is of a very high level, yet Xie Xun is trying to persuade Shen Lang to call Xie Yun and deduce his address.

What is Xie Xun planning to do?
