Liao's mother, grandparents, and other family members were all stunned.
They doted on Liao Xiaoqiao unconditionally. When Liao Xiaoqiao got into a fight in the preschool class, they rushed to the school to teach the boy a lesson. When Liao Xiaoqiao was pushed down by her male classmate in elementary school, they forced the boy to drop out of school. When Liao Xiaoqiao wanted to sleep in the lower bunk, they forced Chu Yu to change beds.
They always do things this way and don't think they've done anything wrong.
They spoil their own children a bit, unlike the free-range country girls. They can't let their own children suffer any injustice, and as for whether others live or die, it's none of their business.
But they didn't expect to spoil Liao Xiaoqiao.
Minor mischief is one thing, but how could she dare to poison others? Even if she did poison them, she couldn't have been careless and gotten caught.
The ward was completely silent. After a long while, Liao Xiaoqiao suddenly burst into tears.
Two female police officers knocked on the door and came in. They had already heard what Liao Xiaoqiao had said, and this was all to be used as testimony. Jiang Chuang liked Liao Xiaoqiao and wanted to protect her. If Liao Xiaoqiao was smart, she should have kept her mouth shut.
But she still thought she was at home, where she could do whatever she wanted, ignoring Jiang Chuang's authority and her parents' advice.
One of the female police officers went out and shook her head.
"I never expected that someone so pretty and from a good family would do something like this."
"She's pretty, but that Zhou classmate is even prettier. She's outstanding, but Zhou is not only the top student with excellent grades, she also owns a clothing store. Have you been to that Mandarin store? The clothes are expensive, one or two hundred yuan a piece, and you have to queue to pay. Liao Xiaoqiao is psychologically unbalanced, jealous of Chu Yu, and has other conflicts, so it's no wonder she can't think straight."
"The problem is that if Zhou hadn't switched that can of food, she would be the one lying in the hospital. Jiang Chuang likes Liao Xiaoqiao, so he might not be able to reveal the type of chemical used. The hospital wouldn't be able to treat the problem properly, and Zhou's life would be in danger."
It's quite disheartening that a top student from a century-old prestigious university could do something like this.
In any case, the truth has been investigated and clarified.
Chu Yu and all her roommates were released, and the police issued a statement detailing what happened.
Some students initially suspected that Chu Yu's roommate had poisoned her. However, when they learned that Liao Xiaoqiao had asked her backup boyfriend for chemicals in an attempt to poison Chu Yu, but had accidentally poisoned herself instead, everyone looked at Chu Yu with sympathy.
Zhang Ying was smelling terrible, so she dragged her roommates to take a shower. They were all clean when they got back to the dorm, and only then did they breathe a sigh of relief.
"It's really bad luck to live in the same dormitory as her!" Zhang Ying said with feeling.
"Isn't that right? Luckily we're all alive. Who would dare share a room with someone like that? Even if she doesn't drop out, I don't want to live here anymore. I've already told the dorm manager about changing dorms."
"Don't worry, my counselor just told me that she's taking a semester off. The Liao family will come and take her things away, and we'll be free. Chu Yu, you've been wronged, but thankfully it's all over now," Chen Qiufen said.
Chu Yu lay in bed, feeling unlucky. Fortunately, she hadn't suffered any real loss. Liao Xiaoqiao had harmed herself and others, so she deserved what she got.
"I'm fine. We need to catch up on the lessons we've learned these past few days. I also have a lot of things to take care of at my shop. I need to go to my boyfriend's place tomorrow to let him know I'm safe."
The next morning, Liao's mother came to pack her things, remaining quiet throughout and not daring to utter a single word. The school had expelled Liao Xiaoqiao; they heard that her eyesight was poor, her hearing was impaired, and she was so weak that she could barely stand. Even if she hadn't been expelled, it would have been difficult for her to continue her studies.
She had a bright future ahead of her, but because of her parents' overindulgence, she embarked on this path of no return. Fortunately, she didn't harm anyone else, so even if she suffered a terrible fate, she deserved it.
With one less troublemaker in the dormitory, life returned to normal. Zhang Ying boiled vinegar and wiped everything down to disinfect the dormitory.
When Chu Yu went to the courtyard house in Houhai, the renovation was nearing completion; Dai Donglin was working quickly.
The electrical wiring in this house in Houhai was a bit outdated, so Dai Donglin had someone rewire it, repair the exterior and roof, and redo the waterproofing.
The renovation of the three-courtyard house cost a lot of money, but labor and materials were cheap these days. Dai Donglin hired skilled workers, some of whom had been doing renovations since the Republic of China era and were the best at repairing old houses.
The courtyard was laid out, and the interior was decorated according to the style of the former Empress's Palace, with some rooms in the style of the Presidential Palace. The decoration was quite sophisticated, which surprised Chu Yu.
Her room, in particular, featured a huanghuali wood bed, secured with silk, which looked quite romantic.
The items are all antiques, such as vases from the Qing Dynasty, jade pendants and mirrors from the Ming Dynasty, and even the spittoons are old.
Chu Yu was having some existential questions. She didn't want to look in the bronze mirror in the middle of the night, remembering that it was used by ancient people hundreds of years ago. She also thought of a bunch of horror movies and was so scared that she didn't even dare to go to the toilet.
The sound of a door opening came from outside. As soon as Chu Yu stepped into the sunlight, Dai Donglin embraced her.
Dai Donglin kissed the top of her head. Her hair smelled nice and her waist was thinner than before, as if she hadn't eaten for days. Her breasts were soft and her waist was slender, giving her a fragile and delicate appearance.
