The fact that Shi Jing found a partner caused quite a stir in a small circle.
On the first day of resuming classes, before the professor even arrived, Shi Jing was surrounded by several girls from her dormitory.
She looked at Jian Rong, who was clearly eager to try, and said helplessly, "I said, didn't you already know yesterday? Why do you still look so shocked and unable to accept it?"
"Don't you understand the importance of ritual?" She rolled her eyes at Shi Jing and said, "Besides, Rong Yu was still here yesterday, so I was too embarrassed to ask anything."
"What do you want to ask?" Shi Jing asked in return.
"Of course it's about the process of dating," Jian Rong said seriously. "Tell me quickly."
Nan Zhuowen and the others were also full of gossip and urged him on.
Shi Jing sighed helplessly; honestly, she didn't have any gossip to share.
After thinking for a moment, Shi Jing had no choice but to say, "Actually, there's not much to say. We've known each other for many years and have always been good friends. About two years ago, I realized that he had feelings for me, but I didn't have any intention of dating, so I never made it clear. It's just that recently I suddenly felt that dating wouldn't be bad, and when the opportunity arose, I suggested that we give it a try."
As he spoke, Shi Jing couldn't help but laugh.
She was very happy that things went so smoothly.
"Tsk, such a handsome guy likes you, and you don't even try to win him over right away!" Jian Rong said with a look of utter disappointment.
"Well, these things all depend on timing, location, and people." Although she had also liked Rong Yu before, she had never really planned to take the next step. This time, the timing was just right.
"Alright then." Jian Rong sighed. "I thought I was going to hear some romantic story, but it turns out it was just a case of feelings developing over time."
While they were chatting, the professor arrived, and they quickly dispersed and sat down to prepare for class.

Classes have resumed normally at Shijing, while the investigation by the police into Lin Yu is still ongoing.
With the ideas and directions provided by Lin Yu, the police investigation progressed rapidly.
Truck driver Ma Zhuang initially insisted that he had only fallen asleep and made a serious mistake, but faced with the police's rigorous interrogation, he was gradually broken down.
Especially when the police presented concrete evidence of unexplained funds in Du Xuemei's account, his expression became visibly grim.
At this point, he was merely putting up a last-ditch effort.
"...She and I are just friends, this has nothing to do with her!"
However, without sufficient evidence, the police would not easily bring up such matters for interrogation.
While they were interrogating Ma Zhuang, the team that was going to arrest Du Xuemei was already on its way.
It must be said that once the state apparatus is in operation, it is far beyond what Shijing's security company can match. Lin Yu and his team only provided a direction; the police quickly uncovered new evidence through investigation.
Du Xuemei did not only have Ma Zhuang and Ma Zhuang as lovers; in addition, she also had a casual affair.
She didn't have much contact with that person, but unsurprisingly, the child was his.
Moreover, the police have also found out the source of the money in Du Xuemei's account.
Du Xuemei's fleeting romance was facilitated by someone who acted as a matchmaker.
Police have arrested Du Xuemei on suspicion of having unexplained sources of funds. If Ma Zhuang confesses that the money was stolen, a complete chain of evidence will be formed, proving that Du Xuemei was also involved in hiring a hitman.
The police are interrogating Ma Zhuang now, and that's exactly what they're after.
Ma Zhuang was almost at his breaking point, but the thought of the only boy in the Ma family and his obsession with the continuation of his bloodline made him grit his teeth and persevere.
Seeing this, the police produced another piece of evidence.
"Friends? Just friends. Her son calls you Dad?"
Ma Zhuang's expression changed drastically.
His relationship with his son and Du Xuemei has always been kept relatively private. On the one hand, Du Xuemei insists on being a non-marriage advocate and refuses to marry him; on the other hand, he is also afraid that his wife at home will cause trouble.
Since Du Xuemei refused to marry him, he had no need to divorce her.
Given his situation, staying together is definitely better than getting a divorce. Ma Zhuang had always been very clear about this.
The house was bought when he and his wife got married, and if they divorced, he would have to give her half. Ma Zhuang felt resentful about this.
Now his wife supports their daughter, so he doesn't need to worry about her much. His wife is also relieved; after her mother passed away, she took care of the household and raised their daughter. When their daughter grows up, she can support him in his old age.
If my daughter can find a good husband in the future, she might be able to help my son.
This time, he had thought things through completely. He had killed someone in the accident, and even if he wanted compensation, he had no money. If he absolutely had to pay compensation, he would simply sell his house back home, since it couldn't be liquidated anyway. If that wasn't enough, there was always his wife; they were husband and wife, and she had to bear the debt!
He never expected that the police would find Du Xuemei so quickly.
Didn't they say they wouldn't be able to find out about his woman and son?!
At that moment, he could no longer control the expression on his face.
