Chapter 178 Yao Ling Jumps into the Lake



"Just because you're curious, you can rummage through other people's things?" She questioned the girl who was speaking. If she remembered correctly, her name was Yao Ling, right?

"Isn't it just a few glances? Why are you so angry?"

"I can't be angry? If I put money in there and you lost it after rummaging through my clothes, whose fault do you think it is?" she questioned Yao Ling.

"You only have a few tattered clothes in you, where did you get the money?" Yao Ling couldn't help but retort.

Lu Duoduo glared, "Did you really look inside my clothes to see if there is any money?"

Yao Ling was a little impatient. "I don't have any. I just took a look. Why are you so stingy? They're just some clothes."

"What's the difference between going through other people's things without asking the person involved and being a thief? If someone goes through my things again next time, don't blame me for reporting it to the counselor directly." She warned the girl.

"You, you're great."

"You thief, you think you're right." Lu Duoduo retorted sarcastically.

"I didn't steal anything from you." Yao Ling explained.

"Who knows?"

Yao Ling couldn't hold back her tears and ran out.

The quarrel in their dormitory attracted the attention of people in other dormitories. Yao Ling's actions became known to everyone, and everyone was criticizing her for doing things in a dishonorable way. Some people lost things in their dormitory, and Yao Ling had been to their dormitory, so they suspected that Yao Ling had stolen them.

When Yao Ling heard what those people said, she walked up to them and shouted that she didn't steal the things.

It’s just that those people don’t believe it, and the rhetoric is getting more and more intense.

Finally one day, Yao Ling could no longer bear the rumors and jumped into the lake. Fortunately, many people saw her jumping into the lake and worked together to rescue her.

This incident caused a sensation in the school, and teachers began to ask what was going on.

Yao Ling tearfully talked about her experiences of the past few days, saying that she was slandered by Lu Duoduo. The rumors were spread from her, and many people believed that she was that kind of person, even though she had done nothing wrong.

She felt so wronged that she jumped into the lake.

The school teacher who knew about this called Lu Duoduo to the office and asked her if this happened.

Of course Lu Duoduo admitted it, but she only said that because Yao Ling went through her things first.

The teachers who knew about this incident agreed. Yao Ling was indeed wrong, but Lu Duoduo was also wrong for others to steal things. The other person didn't steal anything and even jumped into the lake because of it. This caused a lot of uproar in the school, and they had to give an answer to calm the matter down.

"How about you both apologize?"

"I did nothing wrong, why should I apologize to her?" Lu Duoduo asked back.

"But you have no evidence. She just wore your clothes for a while, and she paid the price for it by jumping into the lake."

"Teacher, not everyone who jumps into the lake is right. I did nothing wrong and I won't apologize." Lu Duoduo still had the same attitude.

The counselor's face changed. It was just an apology, an apology from both parties, and she was not asked to apologize alone.

If both of you take a step back, wouldn't that be good for you, me, and everyone else?

Lu Duoduo was unhappy with the counselor's comments, which were like smooth talk. She looked at the counselor and said, "I want to borrow your phone number."

"what are you up to?"

"I need to call my sister."

"Your sister?"

"Well, Professor Lu Xiangxiang from the Clinical Department, I want to give her a call. If she agrees, I'll go and apologize."

Of course, the counselor had heard of Lu Xiangxiang's name and knew what she had done.

This is the youngest PhD student in their school. She is very famous among the teachers in the school. However, she is busy with experiments and not many people have seen her. Even if they have seen her, they can't associate her with anyone because she is too young and is no different from the students in the school.

The only people who can get in touch with her are graduate students. She is still very young, and her future achievements are immeasurable. She is not someone he can afford to offend.

Hearing her say this, he asked Lu Duoduo to call Lu Xiangxiang.

Lu Xiangxiang was still doing experiments when he received the notice, but he couldn't continue the experiment after hearing this. He took off his lab coat and threw it on the table, then rode his bike to Lu Duoduo's department.

"What happened counselor?"

"It's like this..." The counselor slowly recounted what happened.

Lu Xiangxiang was heartbroken after hearing this. Such a thing could happen to Lu Duoduo right under her nose.

"Teacher, strictly speaking, our Duoduo did nothing wrong. Looking through other people's things is what a gentleman does. Taking things without asking is stealing, and even if you return them, it's still stealing. This doesn't count as slandering her. And as for the suicide by jumping into the lake, who would commit suicide in public? If you want to die, why not find a place where there are no people?"

When she heard what happened, she secretly sighed in her heart that this girl was too scheming. This was a great turnaround, but the pressure of public opinion was put on Lu Duoduo, forcing Lu Duoduo to apologize to her.

This woman is really bad.

"Ahem, we've looked into the matter and we think there's something wrong. Public opinion is on her side now. How do you think we can resolve this?" The counselor's attitude was completely different from before.

Lu Xiangxiang's tone and attitude were so tough that the counselor originally thought that both sides would apologize and let it go.

Who knew that after she said this, there was no turning back.

"Duoduo, let's call the police and have them thoroughly investigate the girls' missing items. If it really has nothing to do with her, then we'll apologize to her. If it does, I hope the school will deal with this matter seriously."

"That's true." Lu Duoduo nodded, agreeing with her.

The pressure now fell on the counselor, "Isn't it necessary to call the police?"

"What do you mean it's unnecessary? It's very necessary. This is the most fair and just." She said righteously, and then she pulled Lu Duoduo to report the case.

The counselor couldn't stop him at all, so he hurried to catch up.

Lu Xiangxiang pulled Lu Duoduo and said, "Girl, you didn't even tell your sister that you were bullied by the people in the dormitory. I was so heartbroken when I heard about this."

"I don't think it's a big deal. I can handle it. I haven't been bullied by anyone. I have fought back against those who bullied me. I just didn't expect her to make things like this." Lu Duoduo said innocently.

"Let me handle this matter. From now on, you don't need to live in that dormitory anymore. Why don't you move in with me?"

"Yeah, okay." She just wanted to study hard and didn't want to fight with others. It was really annoying.

After this incident she no longer struggled, though.

"I can't leave now."

"how?"

"If I leave before this matter is resolved, people will think I'm guilty. I won't leave." She snorted.

"You're ambitious." She gave Lu Duoduo a thumbs up, "You're worthy of being my sister."
