Chapter 31
Pei Muyang returned to the dormitory and was unwilling to explain the situation in detail to his roommate.
He evasively said a few important words, then opened the table and saw that it was a disposable lunch box that had been packed for him.
The crayfish at school tastes really good. When you buy crayfish, you get noodles for free. You can make your own crayfish noodles. It’s a pity that it’s limited in time and quantity. If you go too late, you won’t be able to get it.
He was concentrating on eating, while his two roommates seemed to be worried about something.
After all, they are still students who have not yet left school. Apart from studying, dating, and asking their families for money, they have no idea how sinister the right and wrong in this world are. This is the first time they have heard of such... such an immoral thing, which is really shocking.
I am simply speechless.
"What exactly does Chen Yiwei's family do? I heard they even donated a laboratory to the school."
As far as they know, a laboratory in a school would cost at least six to seven figures. What kind of family would donate it just like that?
"You know that new commercial complex that opened downtown? It's his."
"That commercial complex? It's got to be worth at least eight figures, right?"
"I think it's more than that. If you can open a mall in that area, you definitely can't do it without money and background."
"My goodness, what should our Brother Yang do when he encounters such a tough guy?"
Qin Jie and Xu Ning realized the seriousness of the problem. They both turned their eyes to the person involved. They saw Pei Muyang, who they were worried about, was eating while listening to what they said, and was concentrating on slurping the spicy soup in the crayfish.
There was also a harsh squeaking sound.
"What are you doing?" Pei Muyang looked at them strangely, and cautiously hugged the unfinished lunch box in his arms. "Haven't you already eaten? Why are you looking at me?"
"No... We're both so worried about you, how can you still eat?"
"Still eating? Your mouth is swollen like two pork sausages. Are you still planning to go out this afternoon?"
"What can I do if I don't eat? I'm hungry!" Pei Muyang slapped away the crayfish's claws reaching out to him, saying disdainfully, "Don't touch them. I saw you coming out of the bathroom when I just walked in. Did you wash your hands after helping Jiji?"
"I... I cleared myself, why are you making up rumors?" The despised Xu Ning defended himself with wide eyes, thinking that this person was born without conscience.
"We are racking our brains to come up with a plan for your problem, and you are just thinking about eating. Why don't you eat yourself to death? Leave some for me. If you eat it all by yourself, you will be struck by lightning."
Pei Muyang finally pushed the remaining half box of crayfish to the center of the table. He looked at his roommates waving their four claws to divide the crayfish, sighed and said, "I know you are doing this for me, but Ningzi, Brother Jie, I hope you don't interfere in this matter."
"Why?" Xu Ning's tone was a little high, full of incomprehension.
"Are we still brothers?"
"yes……"
"Since we are brothers, if a brother encounters trouble, can we just sit there and watch?"
"Brother Jie, listen to me. Chen Yiwei is not someone you can easily mess with. Since he's done something so extreme to force me to submit, he must have a backup plan. So you two better stay out of this. You're about to graduate, don't let me prevent you from getting your diploma."
Xu Ning and Qin Jie are both children who grew up in ordinary families. Their parents worked hard to send them to school. If they fail to get their diplomas, they will disappoint their family's expectations.
"What about you? Doesn't your diploma matter?"
"Me? A diploma is important, but if someone steps on me and I have to swallow my anger and become a prisoner, that's not my character, Pei Muyang."
The boy's eyes were arrogant and wanton, as if he had the determination to risk everything and the courage to fight to the end.
"I must get evidence that he framed my father. Even if his family is rich, so what? We live in a society ruled by law now. I don't believe his family can really cover up everything."
Just do it.
Pei Muyang had actually thought about this matter over and over in his mind several times. If he wanted to break the deadlock, it would be absolutely impossible to start from Chen Yiwei. Unless he was willing to exchange his body, it would be impossible.
Then the only possible starting point is the girl who was called by Chen Yiwei to fabricate a report on Pei Yu. If she is willing to withdraw the report and explain the truth, then all these problems will be solved.
But the problem is that there are so many girls in the school, and there are hundreds of girls in their department alone. The school wants to protect the whistleblower out of humanitarianism and it is impossible to announce the news about the girls. It will take too much time to investigate.
So after class, Pei Muyang strolled into Director Liang's office...
"The informant?" Director Liang raised his head from the thick file and glanced at the boy sitting across from him through his reading glasses. "Xiao Pei, what are you trying to do by asking for the informant's information?"
Facing the sharp gaze, Pei Muyang sat upright. The feeling of being suppressed in momentum made his scalp tingle. Although this little old man usually smiled, he was still quite scary when he really frowned.
"Director Liang, you misunderstood. I'm not seeking revenge. I want to find out the truth and prove my father's innocence. You know my father would never do such a thing, so I must help him clear his name."
"But... the school won't release the whistleblower's information. There have been cases of whistleblowers being assaulted and retaliated against before, so this information is kept secret from everyone except the school."
"I know, so I'm here to discuss this with you, right?"
"You little brat, are you trying to ruin my reputation as an old man?" Director Liang laughed in anger. "Am I usually too in-charge, so you guys are all riding on my shoulders?"
"Director, I absolutely don't mean that. My respect for you goes far beyond the friendship between teacher and student. As you know, my father has always admired your academic achievements and your character. So, from childhood, I have been influenced by you all the time. My admiration for you is like the endless flow of a river, like the unstoppable flood of the Yellow River..."
"Alright, alright, stop flattering me. I'm already this old, I've heard all sorts of good and bad things. Don't try to buy me off with this. Get out of here! Your noise is giving me a headache."
Director Liang pushed his reading glasses and looked unmoved.
Pei Muyang saw that the situation was hopeless and didn't want to disturb them any further, so he stood up, bowed respectfully to Director Liang, turned around silently and prepared to leave.
"Oh, right, brat." Director Liang, who was standing behind him, said casually without even looking up, as if he had thought of something, "I heard your father once taught a girl named Xie Yuqing."
Pei Muyang's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he quickly thanked him repeatedly: "Thank you, Director, thank you!"
"What are you thanking me for? I didn't say anything. Don't thank the wrong person."
"Yes, I thank you for your teachings and your contributions to our country and school. I have no other intentions. Now, you are busy, so I will take my leave."
Director Liang hummed a syllable in his nose as a response, then watched Pei Muyang close the office door and leave.
Kid, don't be impulsive...
After getting the information he wanted, Pei Muyang immediately sent a WeChat message to Qin Jie, who worked in the student union, asking him if he knew Xie Yuqing.
Qin Jie glanced at the girl next to him in confusion. She had a pretty face but an attractive figure. Could this be the type that his school idol roommate liked?
He cast a subtle glance at the peerless breasts before him, and relying on his manly instincts, estimated that they were at least 36D. Suddenly, he realized, no wonder Pei Muyang liked this kind of style...
Pei Muyang, who still didn't know that he was being forced into marriage by his roommate, was searching for clues about Xie Yuqing on the school forum and confession wall.
He always felt that the name looked familiar, perhaps he had glanced at it while eating melon, but the impression was not very deep, so he couldn't even remember where he had seen it specifically.
When I first entered the forum, I saw an overwhelming amount of posts about Pei Yu and his name Pei Muyang floating on the homepages of various sections of the forum. Some were cursing, some were analyzing. Anyway, at a glance, there was nothing good to say. But if you talk about other sections, I can tolerate it, but what is the person who put his name in the lost and found section trying to do?
Pei Muyang cursed and wanted to close the page, but a post that had just been published caught his attention.
Enough of those people who just follow the crowd. Let me tell you about the Pei Muyang I know.
The poster should be a girl. She used a very long article to describe the Pei Muyang she saw in her eyes. She said that the Pei Muyang she knew was a boy who was so kind that he couldn't even bear to hurt a girl who confessed to him unreasonably. He would use an understanding and non-awkward tone to reject a relationship that he could not accept. The kindness of cherishing and respecting others came from the heart and could not be faked.
How could such a kind person be the kind of person who would do anything, even selling his body, to get a place as an exchange student, as everyone has spread rumors about?
She thought that her heartfelt narration would be approved by everyone, but who knew that Pei Muyang's reputation was at the center of public opinion at that time.
It’s not that there haven’t been so-called messengers of justice who have come before the main culprit, but Pei Muyang is a stubborn person and scolding him in person would be humiliating. He broke down before a few words were spoken.
Now, those who have no outlet to vent their feelings suddenly discover that a great scholar who considers himself a righteous man is debating for the stone in the cesspool. Isn't this asking for trouble?
So the replies on the following pages were all insulting messages to the poster. It can be seen that the poster really wanted to protect Pei Muyang. She picked out posts to reply and defend herself, wanting to prove that she was not wrong about the person, but was ridiculed and insulted by even more people.
Pei Muyang couldn't stand it anymore, and started to talk non-stop. He also expressed his opinion and asked her to confront Pei Muyang face to face. How could it be considered a regressive behavior to bully a girl by acting as a keyboard warrior through the screen? Has he decided to only live 363 days a year from now on?
Someone watching the fun online didn't understand, so he tagged Pei Muyang and asked him what he meant by "a year only lasts 363 days."
Pei Muyang answered enthusiastically, which means that Father's Day and Mother's Day will not be celebrated.
After typing this, Pei Muyang sneered and left the forum. How crazy must he be to go there to look for answers? Isn't this just asking for trouble?
But then again, if it weren't for this, perhaps the girl who spoke up for him would still be fighting alone, and would not dare to ask him for credit or complain even after being scolded like that for him.
The image of the girl who had confessed to him in front of Lao Pei's class came to his mind, and he decided that when they met next time, he would treat her to a meal to thank her properly.
Pei Muyang had made up his mind and was about to put away his phone when he heard a few familiar alert tones coming from his phone.
He saw Qin Jie's reply on WeChat about Xie Yuqing's grade and major, height and weight, clubs and elective courses, and even hobbies...
So I smiled and replied, "Okay, thank you, Brother Jie, but there's no need to be so detailed."
In fact, grade and major are all that matters, but Qin Jie's professionalism is still affirmed.
Pei Muyang turned off his phone and took a deep breath.
Look! Isn't this the job?
