Anzi and Mingxiu had the same idea.

He pointed to the bus stop at the school gate and said, "I remember taking bus number 78 and getting off at the Dijing Dayuan stop."

Mingxiu took out two small bills from her pocket, grabbed Anzi, and headed towards the bus stop.

The siblings were extremely anxious throughout the journey.

Upon arriving at the gate of the Imperial Capital compound, the two rushed inside with all their might, nearly bumping into an elderly woman carrying a vegetable basket.

Shen Jingyan finished her class at 6 PM and went home earlier than Gu Zhiyun.

She had just put down her schoolbag and hadn't even had a sip of water when she saw Anzi and Mingxiu run into the courtyard.

Their faces were flushed from running, and as soon as they entered the courtyard, they called out breathlessly, "Sister, brother-in-law!"

Shen Jingyan hurriedly came out: "What brings you two here?"

Before An Zi could catch her breath, she hurriedly said to Chen Jing, "Sister, something terrible has happened! There are people selling your husband's autographed photos at the school gate!"

Chen Jingyan was greatly shocked.

Who is it?

"One was thin and small, with a ponytail, and the other was tall and fat, with a big donkey face!"

Anzi described it precisely.

Chen Jingyan's heart sank suddenly.

"Take me there quickly!"

By the time the three arrived at the school gate, it was already getting dark.

From a distance, you can see a group of students surrounding two people, making a lot of noise.

"Give me one, give me one!"

Gu Qing and Li Juanjuan were busy collecting money and handing out autographed photos, respectively, and they were having a great time.

In just a short while, the two had already sold several hundred tickets.

They collected the money one bill at a time, and their pockets bulged with small mounds of cash.

Gu Qing was so happy her mouth was crooked.

Just as she was feeling smug, a loud slap came flying at her.

Her brain was buzzing from the blow, and she stood there dumbfounded, like a stunned goose.

Li Juanjuan shouted, "Why are you hitting me?"

Shen Jingyan was so angry that her shoulders trembled, and she snatched the autographed photo from Li Juanjuan's hand.

"You have to pay for an autographed photo, why are you robbing me? Believe me or not, I'll tell the police!"

Li Juanjuan reached out to snatch it, but Shen Jingyan handed the stack of autographed photos to Anzi, who clutched them tightly to her chest.

Although Li Juanjuan was older than An Zi, she was more than a head shorter than him. Seeing An Zi's sharp gaze, she dared not try to take it anymore.

Mingxiu shouted to the students queuing to buy autographed photos, "Stop selling! Stop selling! These two are selling autographed photos without Teacher Gu's authorization, which is illegal! If you don't want to get into trouble, hurry up and leave!"

This is what I calmly taught her on the bus just now.

Shen Jingyan accurately grasped the students' psychology. As soon as they heard the word "illegal," they all ran away in a flash, fearing that the police would come and arrest them at any moment.

After everyone had left, Shen Jingyan finally had time to teach Gu Qing a lesson.

"Do you even know how big of a mess you've made!"

Gu Qing swallowed hard, then protested indignantly, "I... what happened? I just wanted to earn some pocket money..."

Li Juanjuan chimed in, "Who are you? Are you a police officer? Mind your own business! Are you jealous because we're making money?"

Her attitude was extremely arrogant; ignorance is bliss.

Shen Jingyan didn't want to fight with a strange middle school student, but if she didn't teach her a lesson, she wouldn't know her place!

She grabbed Li Juanjuan by the collar and lifted her up, raising Li Juanjuan's entire body.

She was terrified, struggling like a chick, her expression one of horror.

She never imagined that a slender young girl could be so strong!

They practically lifted her up and slammed her to the ground!

"Who am I? I am Gu Zhiyun's wife! Your behavior violates my personal portrait rights. I'm taking you to the police station; you'll be going to jail!"

Li Juanjuan turned pale with fright: "I...I...I didn't mean to...I just wanted to..."

"Profiting from infringing on someone else's portrait rights is definitely a criminal activity. You two are incredibly audacious! Come on, let's go to the police station!"

As she spoke, Shen Jingyan began to drag Li Juanjuan along.

Li Juanjuan was so frightened that she burst into tears: "Sister, I really didn't know! Please forgive me, I'll never do it again! It's all her fault!"

She quickly pointed at Gu Qing and said, "She tricked Teacher Gu into signing the photo and took it to the copy shop to make copies! I... I was just helping her collect the money!"

When Gu Qing realized she had been betrayed, she was so angry that she kicked Li Juanjuan twice.

"You're talking nonsense! Selling autographed photos was clearly your idea! You traitor, I've given you so many good things for free!"

Shen Jingyan understood Gu Qing's personality. Although she was greedy, lazy, sharp-tongued, and had many bad habits, she never lied.

Gu Qing readily admitted to sneaking into her and Gu Zhiyun's bedroom and damaging her high heels.

She said it was Li Juanjuan's idea, so it must have been Li Juanjuan's bad idea.

Even with Gu Qing's intelligence, she couldn't have come up with such a way to make money.

Shen Jingyan asked Li Juanjuan, "Are you and Gu Qing in the same class?"

Li Juanjuan nodded hurriedly: "Sister, I really know I was wrong. Please don't send me to the police station. My mom will beat me to death if she finds out!"
