Chapter 89 Strike first and gain the upper hand!

Zhu Qingyan and Zhu Lan staggered a long way, and when they heard no movement behind them, they sat down on the ground panting.

Zhu Qingyan gasped in shock, "They won't catch up with us, will they?"

Zhu Lan shook his head. The powder in the bag was mainly lime, which was just sprinkled all over the man's face. He would probably be disabled if not blinded.

"Thank you." Zhu Lan calmed his breathing and said.

Thinking about what just happened, I can't help but feel a little scared.

Although she had lime powder in her hand, she could not guarantee that she could deal with the two adult men opposite.

But she didn't expect that Zhu Qingyan would actually help.

"Stop being so conceited. Do you think I am willing to save you?" Zhu Qingyan showed a look of disgust.

Just now she almost took a shortcut back to the academy.

"Then why did you come here? Aren't you afraid of death?" Zhu Lan couldn't help laughing.

Zhu Qingyan turned away, and after a while, he pursed his lips and said reluctantly:

"I don't want to do that either. I am a kind person after all!"

Fortunately, Zhu Lan's leg only had minor injuries and no bones were broken.

Zhu Qingyan supported Zhu Lan and limped her back to the Zhu residence.

"Miss Lan is injured!"

The servant Acai shouted at the top of his voice in the yard, and the entire Zhu family fell into chaos.

Pei Yue was the first one to run out. When she saw Zhu Lan's injuries and heard about what had happened to the two, she felt so distressed that she burst into tears.

Mr. Zhu also rushed over after hearing the news. He immediately asked Acai to call a doctor and reported the case to the government.

Zhu Qingyan stood aside, feeling a little sad as he watched the entire Zhu family busy with Zhu Lan's injury.

It's impossible not to be jealous.

Forget it, out of sight, out of mind. The person has been delivered anyway.

Zhu Qingyan turned around to leave, but unexpectedly it was Pei Yue who stopped her.

"Aunt Zhu... Qingyan, thank you for helping Lan'er today. Our Zhu family will always remember this kindness."

We wish home.

Zhu Qingyan curled his lips and just gave Pei Yue a perfunctory salute.

"It's so late now. It's not safe for you to go back to the academy alone. Why don't you stay here for the night?"

Pei Yue was really worried, after all, something like that had just happened, so she asked someone to clean up the guest room.

"No need." She didn't need anyone's charity.

Especially the charity from the Zhu family.

Zhu Qingyan raised his head slightly and said, "I live in Chen's Mansion now, which is not far from here.

If Madam wants to repay me, please send someone to send me back."

Pei Yue was slightly surprised when she heard this, wondering why Zhu Qingyan lived in the Chen Mansion, and then she quickly figured out the reason.

Ah Cai had just returned from reporting a case to the government, and before he could even have a sip of water, he was assigned by Pei Yue to escort Zhu Qingyan to the Chen Mansion. He had no choice but to accept his fate.

Fortunately, Zhu Qingyan returned to the Chen Mansion and insisted on giving him the errand fee, and Acai's wounded heart was finally comforted.

…

The next morning, Ouyang Ye had just arrived at the study when he heard a hurried knock on the door.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was the sound of banging on the door.

Ouyang Ye frowned, wondering who dared to be so rude?

He opened the door, and Qiao Youyou and Qin Yuwei rushed in with anxious faces, saying that Zhu Lan was missing.

Ouyang Ye was startled and asked quickly what was going on.

Qiao Youyou said that Zhu Lan was supposed to go back to the academy with them last night, but they separated halfway. The two of them waited on the road for a long time but didn't see Zhu Lan, so they thought she had returned to the academy by another route.

After Qiao Youyou and the other person came back, they did not see Zhu Lan. They wondered if she was delayed again and came back late.

The two of them kept waiting until they could no longer hold back their sleepiness and fell asleep. When they opened their eyes, they found that Zhu Lan had not come back the whole night!

Since it concerned the safety of the students, Ouyang Ye did not dare to delay and immediately ordered several students to go out and look for him.

As soon as Zhu Qingyan arrived at the door of the classroom, he saw Xiang Wenyuan walking towards him happily.

"Senior Sister Qingyan, have you heard? Zhu Lan didn't come back the whole night last night!"

Zhu Qingyan didn't understand why Xiang Wenyuan was so happy.

"Ouyang Jiabei is sending people out to look for him. It looks like something might have happened!

Hey, what can I do if I don't see anyone for the whole night? Could it be..."

Xiang Wenyuan's smile was somewhat evil.

Thinking of what happened last night, Zhu Qingyan couldn't help but face darkening.

"Boring." She said coldly.

"Huh?" Xiang Wenyuan didn't know why Zhu Qingyan suddenly got angry, so he followed her and asked her if she was unhappy.

Zhu Qingyan didn't bother to pay attention to her and went straight to find Ouyang Ye.

Ouyang Ye was just about to ask Qiao Youyou and Qin Yuwei to go to Zhu's house to see if Zhu Lan had returned home last night.

"Dean Ouyang."

Zhu Qingyan came in and told everyone what happened last night.

Qin Yuwei covered her lips, obviously frightened, "Did Lanlan really get into danger last night!?"

For a moment, I felt scared and blamed myself.

If I had known earlier, I should have accompanied her back to get the things!

"Hey, it couldn't be you who did this?" Qiao Youyou looked at Zhu Qingyan suspiciously. She and Zhu Lan had a bad relationship, and everyone knew it.

"Believe it or not, if you don't believe it, just go to Zhu's house and you will know for yourself." Zhu Qingyan said unhappily and left.

Xiang Wenyuan outside the study was dumbfounded. He didn't expect Zhu Qingyan to help Zhu Lan?

Didn’t she always hate Zhu Lan the most?

Could it be that the two have turned from enemies to friends?

A woman’s heart is like a needle in the sea!

Xiang Wenyuan shook his head and wanted to go up to talk to Zhu Qingyan, but he saw another tall figure walking towards Zhu Qingyan.

It’s Chen Ziming.

"Qingyan, are you okay?" Chen Ziming asked with concern.

"It's okay. I've already made it clear to Supervisor Ouyang."

When the two were talking, they were almost shoulder to shoulder, and everyone could see the intimacy between them.

Chen Ziming nodded, "That's fine. I'll wait for you to go back together after the evening class."

"Um."

The two talked and gradually walked away.

Xiang Wenyuan stood where he was, his hands clenched into fists, the resentment and jealousy in his eyes quickly turned into raging rage.

A few of his younger brothers who usually hang out with him came up and said with a playful smile:

"Brother Xiang, forget it. Now everyone knows that Senior Sister Qingyan is Chen Ziming's future wife, so don't worry about her anymore!"

"Yes, Brother Xiang, there are always better fish in the sea. I think Zhu Qingyan is just like that!"

"Hey, don't be so stern! I've recently taken in a few good maids. We're all good brothers. Why don't you come over to my house and play?"

Xiang Wenyuan snorted heavily.

"There is nothing that I, Xiang Wenyuan, cannot get!"

Thinking back to when I was at home, my mother always liked to compare myself with Chen Ziming. In short, the second young master of the Chen family was better than me in every way.

But in Xiang Wenyuan's eyes, Chen Ziming was nothing! Wasn't he just good at reciting a few sour poems?

Now you come and snatch the woman from me?

If he admits defeat, Xiang Wenyuan will have no place in this academy anymore!

"You guys can go to Zuijinlou this afternoon. I need to go home."

Since someone is trying to steal it, we should strike first!
