Chapter 503 Neither alive nor dead



Ruan Qingling frowned slightly and reached out to pull her.

However, at that moment, she noticed a layer of oil on the wet ground... it was oil stains.

So, the ground wasn't just wet and slippery; someone had poured oil on it.

Ruan Qingling took a deep breath and steadied herself.

Only then did he take Mingxia's hand.

Just as Mingxia was about to get up, she grabbed Ruan Qingling's hand with one hand and braced herself against the ground with the other, trying to exert force.

That hand slipped instead.

If Ruan Qingling hadn't stood firm, she would have collapsed.

Mingxia herself was also startled.

It's nothing for her to fall, but Ruan Qingling is pregnant.

If she falls...

Something bad is definitely going to happen. What will we do if something bad happens?

She said, "Don't pull me. I feel like the ground is wet and oily. I'll get up myself. Don't pull me, or I'll pull you down too."

Ruan Qingling looked to the side where there was a smear of oil and said, "Move one step to the right and I'll pull you up."

This time, Mingxia did as Ruan Qingling said, and Ruan Qingling finally pulled the person up.

However, Mingxia's clothes were also very ugly.

His cotton-padded coat was dirty, and his pants were wet and dirty.

These days, each person usually only has one cotton-padded coat. Where can you find one to change into?

Mingxia frowned.

Ruan Qingling said, "You should be able to wear these pants, or you can try them all on."

Mingxia shook her head.

"No, I'll go check my dorm. I still have some clothes. Be careful."

After falling, she can no longer go to the cafeteria for meals.

Ruan Qingling said, "Shall I make one for you?"

Mingxia nodded and said, "You keep serving it for me, I'll come back to eat later."

She went back to her dormitory.

Ruan Qingling looked at the marks on the ground and stepped onto the steps to the side.

Regardless of whether this oil was deliberately smuggled or not, it's easy for others to fall into the same trap here.

Ruan Qingling found someone to deal with the ground and even reported the matter to the school.

How could you dump something as expensive as oil here?

Her reasoning was that if it was spilled accidentally, the person should know it would cause someone to slip and would have cleaned it up.

It's likely that someone with ulterior motives did this on purpose.

On the one hand, I don't know who they want to bring down; on the other hand, these items are so precious, how could anyone be so careless?

One sentence shut everyone up.

The person was quickly identified as an employee of the new cafeteria. It was said that the other party harbored resentment towards the old cafeteria and deliberately sabotaged their work.

Did they find a scapegoat?

Ruan Qingling felt that there was someone else behind it all.

However, she wasn't in a hurry. It seemed that this person was still not giving up and still wanted to harm her.

Her first reaction, instinctively, was to think of someone like Lu Wan.

Besides Lu Wan, there is also Zhang Qingfang at the school, but she feels that Zhang Qingfang doesn't have the guts to deal with her now.

Mingxia frowned and said, "How strange! If he wants to target the cafeteria here, why doesn't he do it at the cafeteria entrance instead of pouring oil at the entrance of the auditorium? What if a teacher slips and falls?"

Ruan Qingling said, "This person is just a scapegoat, an excuse. Do you really believe him?"

Mingxia was taken aback and asked, "What do you think it is? The teacher was here just now, why didn't you bring it up?"

Ruan Qingling said, "The school would rather downplay this matter and make it disappear. If I bring it up, they will be in trouble and hold a grudge against me. Besides, even if we find out who is behind this, the price they pay will not be high. I have no reason to be the bad guy."

Mingxia was still processing Ruan Qingling's words.

Her analysis makes sense.

Ruan Qingling hasn't been in a good mood lately, but she feels that Ruan Qingling is still an optimistic person. After all, her husband has been missing for so long, and now there's no sign of him being alive or dead.

If it were her, she would have collapsed long ago.

Looking down, she saw Ruan Qingling's slightly protruding belly and said, "Then let's leave it at that. If the other party is trying to harm you, you need to be careful."

I wouldn't say it was specifically targeted at Ruan Qingling, but if such a disgusting person appears in the school, we have to be on guard.

Ruan Qingling nodded slightly.

"Um."

“Student Ruan”.

A deep, pleasant voice rang out.

The two turned around and saw Zhou Weilin standing not far from them.

Zhou Weilin had just finished the handover this morning, and he would officially start teaching them this afternoon.

Ruan Qingling was considered his student.

Mingxia's eyes lit up the moment she saw Zhou Weilin.

"professor."

Zhou Weilin nodded calmly and asked, "Are you all alright?"

Mingxia said, "It's alright."

Zhou Weilin looked at Ruan Qingling and said, "Ruan, what about you?"

Ruan Qingling nodded slightly.

Zhou Weilin said, "This morning was truly unexpected."

Ruan Qingling said, "The professor has already paid for a pair of pants, so this matter is over."

Zhou Weilin nodded: "It's likely to keep raining lately, so please be careful when you go out."

Mingxia felt that the new professor was very kind, and his gaze towards people was gentle and kind.

Ruan Qingling, however, did not like that look.

After all, it made her look a little strange.

Well, such a kind professor isn't so bad.

Just then, Lu Wan and two female classmates passed by.

They glanced at Ruan Qingling with a deep look, then their gaze settled on Zhou Weilin.

Lu Wan stepped forward and said, "Professor Zhou, I've always heard of your great reputation. I never expected you to come to the school to teach. I have a few questions I'd like to discuss with you. Do you have time now?"

Zhou Weilin said, "I don't have time right now, but I have half an hour at 3 p.m. If you're free at that time, you can come to my office to find me."

After saying this, he nodded slightly and left.

Lu Wan's expression stiffened slightly, but Zhou Weilin didn't completely disregard her feelings.

They still gave me half an hour.

She said to the classmate next to her, "That's perfect, we can go rest at noon. I'll go to your dorm."

She didn't speak to Ruan Qingling, and the group left leisurely.

Mingxia watched their retreating figures, then turned to Ruan Qingling and said, "You have quite a few grudges with them."

Ruan Qingling smiled slightly and said, "No one can please everyone except for money."

Mingxia suddenly laughed: "That's true."

Time always flies.

Ruan Qingling is very knowledgeable about her body, but Song Ji and Lin Yufang still dare not be careless and make her go for a check-up every month.

April is beautiful, with gentle breezes and warm sunshine, but June is a completely different story.

This is the rainy and hot season, and Jingcheng will experience concentrated rainfall.

Ruan Qingling is already eight months pregnant, and there is only a little over a month left before she gives birth.

Ruan Qingling is still going out to teach because, apart from going to school, she is not allowed to do anything else at home. Now, besides writing articles, she can only take advantage of the time to go out for walks during class.

People can't stay at home all the time.

Besides, she always felt that Lu Wan had ulterior motives at school.

This semester is coming to an end.

In a few days, the semester will be over. Time flies so fast, but there is still no news from Song Shiting.

They were nowhere to be found, neither alive nor dead.

Ruan Qingling also let go of her inhibitions.

What is meant to be hers will surely come back.

It shouldn't be hers. Now that she's like this, she can't go back or run away, so she should accept fate's arrangement.

Water was dripping from the eaves.

When I went out this morning, it was just cloudy, but now it's raining so hard.

Ruan Qingling walked outside, intending to find a rickshaw. However, in this kind of sudden rain, even rickshaws were not operating.

Just then, a car came out of the school.
