Chapter 366 Be good and stop crying
After Shen Ning returned to school, she immediately went to report to Professor Lin.
It was only after she met Professor Lin that she realized that the old lady was ill.
I had pneumonia last week and had just been discharged from the hospital, but I caught a cold because I came home too late from school. The pneumonia relapsed and I couldn't get out of bed.
Professor Lin looked helpless, pulling Shen Ning's hand and looking straight at her: "There is not enough time, it must be submitted in three days, you swear to me that you will finish the rest."
Shen Ning didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I swear."
The old lady then heaved a long sigh, then added, "But you also have to take care of your health...your health is the capital of revolution."
She knew Shen Ning's talent. As long as she calmed down, she would be able to complete the rest of the experiment within three days.
After leaving Professor Lin, Shen Ning went straight to the laboratory. Halfway there, she suddenly received a strange call. She answered it with some suspicion and heard a familiar voice.
It was Pang Qi, the team leader who had kicked Shen Ning out of the experimental group before.
As soon as Shen Ning said "hello", she heard Pang Qi's anxious voice.
"Chen Ning, this is Pang Qi. Why did you block my number? After all, we are classmates, so it's not necessary... There are only two experiments left for you to be in charge of. He Hao and the others can't do them. If you can spare some time, can you come to the lab to take a look? We are almost done."
Shen Ning was amazed at how shameless this person was. She didn't even bother to say a word and just hung up and blocked him.
But a moment later, the phone rang again.
This time it was Lu Qing, the girl from the project team who had spoken for Shen Ning last time. Lu Qing's voice was obviously full of uneasiness and embarrassment, and her voice was a little low.
"Chen Ning, I'm so sorry to bother you. The team leader asked me to call you about our previous experiment..."
Shen Ning interrupted her with a smile: "It's your experiment, it has nothing to do with me now, and I'm busy here, and I really can't distract myself to help others with experiments, sorry."
Lu Qing quickly said, "I understand, I understand, I'm sorry to bother you."
Shen Ning said it was okay and hung up the phone.
In the other lab, Lu Qing hung up the phone and spread his hands: "It's useless."
Pang Qi sneered: "You had a very good relationship with her in the past, and you even spoke for her. Now, she still doesn't give you face."
Lu Qing took a deep breath and said, "Yeah, the experiment is almost done, and someone wants to take advantage of it and kick me out. Now I don't have the ability to clean up the mess, but I'm just showing off in front of the team members."
Pang Qi's face suddenly turned cold: "What are you talking about? What do you mean?"
Yao Dandan quickly tried to smooth things over: "Let's all stop talking. If Shen Ning can do it, we can do it too. Let's try again..."
A boy muttered quietly: "If it could be completed, it would have been completed long ago. If Shen Ning hadn't been kicked out, our group would have submitted it by now. I had originally planned to go abroad during the summer vacation, but now the time has been delayed."
"Oh, you're blaming me now, aren't you?"
Pang Qi sneered: "Why didn't you stand up when we said we were going to kick them out?"
Another boy curled his lips: "Who knew you were such a wimp..."
Pang Qi was furious: "I'm no good? If you're good enough, do it yourself. Why would you follow me and get a prize?"
"Stop arguing. Time is running out. Find a solution quickly."
Yao Dandan bit her lip: "Otherwise, I will contact Shen Ning tomorrow. After all, she is a roommate, and she shouldn't make a big fuss."
Early the next morning, Shen Ning entered the laboratory early, muted her phone, and then devoted herself to the experiment.
Except for lunch, she hardly stopped. By the time she finished the planned experiment, she realized that it was already dark.
It was already past nine o'clock in the evening and her neck was stiff and painful. After finishing her follow-up work, she locked the door and left.
When she went downstairs, she had time to take out her cell phone and took a look. When she saw Yao Dandan's call, she remembered and immediately blocked Yao Dandan as well.
On the way home, Shen Ning called Su Chengcheng again and asked her if the pervert had harassed her recently.
Hearing Su Chengcheng say no, Shen Ning reluctantly breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Chengcheng was still very nervous: "Ningning, he threatened me that if I didn't go find him within two months, he would spread the photos. It's been over a month now. Do you think he will..."
Shen Ning immediately comforted him: "No, I'm already close to him, don't worry, I will find a chance to take his phone soon."
Su Chengcheng was obviously worried: "Then be careful, Ningning. No matter what, protect yourself first."
Shen Ning hummed: "Don't worry."
After hanging up the phone, Shen Ning suddenly realized that the path she had been walking on was different from the past.
She didn't know what was being built nearby, as the fence mostly blocked the view. She had been on the phone and hadn't noticed.
The fence blocked the way, preventing vehicles from passing through. The alley became deserted and almost silent... and in this silence, she heard footsteps behind her.
As she suddenly stopped, the footsteps behind her also stopped. Shen Ning turned around suddenly... and saw a figure hiding in the darkness in the corner behind the wall.
Shen Ning's heart sank, and she immediately quickened her pace and walked forward.
There are usually a lot of students on this road so she always walks here, but now the final exams are over and most students are on summer vacation. In addition, the construction fence next to it blocks part of the road, so vehicles don't go this way. Now there is not a single person in sight.
Shen Ning just seemed to see that the person following her was wearing the kind of safety vest worn by construction workers, with reflective strips on it... He hadn't even changed into his work clothes. Even if he had any malicious intent, it should have been a spur-of-the-moment act. If she had been quick, she might have been able to avoid it.
The containers where the migrant workers live are not far behind.
Shen Ning's heart began to beat violently, and she quickened her pace. Then she heard the footsteps behind her quicken. Turning back hurriedly, she saw that there were actually two people, one of whom was hiding the reflective vest he had taken off.
Seeing that Shen Ning had discovered them, the two men not only did not stop, but actually strode directly towards her.
Shen Ning's head buzzed, and she ran while shouting for help.
"Help, robbery, help..."
"Shut up! If you shout again, I'll kill you!"
She only heard the footsteps behind her getting closer and closer, and Shen Ning was frightened and panicked by this sudden crisis.
She had only seen this kind of thing on the news before and never thought it would happen to her... The two men's dark faces and ferocious expressions were more terrifying than she had ever imagined. In an instant, the bruised victims in the online news kept flooding into her mind.
She ran forward desperately, shouting for help, and took out her cell phone tremblingly to call the police, but happened to answer the incoming call.
"What are you doing?"
It’s Xiao Chen.
Shen Ning knew she should hang up and call the police, but the police wouldn't arrive so quickly. In panic, she almost cried, "Help..."
The voice on the other end suddenly became cold and stern: "What happened? Where are you?"
"Someone is chasing me. I'm in Zhiwen Lane behind the school. Someone is chasing me..."
Her voice was choked and her speech was incoherent.
"I'll be right there."
Xiao Chen's voice was accompanied by the sound of the wind, and he seemed to be running.
Shen Ning didn't expect Xiao Chen to suddenly appear, but the connected call seemed to give her some courage, and Xiao Chen's voice was also very calm.
"Chen Ning, listen to me, don't be afraid, I'll be there soon. Speak louder so I can hear where you are..."
Shen Ning was no longer able to think too much. Upon hearing this, she immediately shouted with all her might, "Help!"
The footsteps behind her were getting closer and closer. She ran so hard that her chest ached and her vision went dark... until her arm was grabbed.
Shen Ning screamed and struggled desperately. The person holding her clamped her arms. Shen Ning was about to kick him hard when she heard Xiao Chen's slightly panting voice: "Shen Ning... It's me."
Her movements froze suddenly, and Shen Ning opened her eyes. When she saw a familiar face instead of the two men with ferocious expressions, she was stunned, and the next moment, she burst into tears.
No matter what, she is only a 19-year-old student now. How could she have experienced what happened just now? Thinking of the two men with ferocious expressions just now, the tears that Shen Ning had been holding back suddenly burst out.
"Wow, I was on the phone and didn't notice the road was being repaired... They were following me, the two of them... Wow, I was scared to death..."
Xiao Chen had been taking care of Chen Ning and didn't chase the two men, but he saw a surveillance camera at the intersection over there.
This wasn't the time to chase after someone. Seeing the girl crying in fear, he reached out and hugged her, patting her back and soothing her in a clumsy manner: "It's okay, it's okay."
Shen Ning sobbed, "I want to go home."
"Okay, I'll take you home. Where do you live?"
"The family compound in front... seventh floor..."
Shen Ning leaned on someone's shoulder and sobbed all the way, feeling terrified. When she came to her senses, she found that Xiao Chen had already carried her into the house.
He actually carried her back face to face like this...
"Okay, we're home now. I'm not afraid anymore."
Xiao Chen held her and placed her on the cabinet inside the door. He gently brushed her hair away from her cheeks, held her face, and whispered to her, "We're home. Don't cry."
The girl stared at him blankly with tearful eyes... Xiao Chen's Adam's apple moved slightly, and he couldn't help but lower his head and kiss her cheek, coaxing her in a low voice: "Be good, don't be afraid anymore."
He whispered softly and coaxed her, and kissed her from the cheek to the corner of her lips. Shen Ning actually felt an emotion similar to heartache in his coaxing and kissing... Suddenly waking up, she subconsciously pushed him away.
Xiao Chen was slightly startled, and when he saw the fear in the girl's eyes, he immediately realized: "Sorry, did I scare you?"
He said, "I shouldn't have gotten close to you at a time like this... Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you."
But the restraint he had been holding turned into a subtle desire when the girl relied on him wholeheartedly, hugged him and sobbed on his shoulder. He longed for her to be comforted by his side, and longed to use intimacy to dispel her fear... But he forgot that at this time, such a desire might scare her.
"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you, dear."
Xiao Chen's tone was gentle, and after Shen Ning's deep fear, her heart was filled with panic again.
The tension and uneasiness of these days finally became clear. At this moment, Shen Ning suddenly realized why she had been nervous and frightened when facing Xiao Chen in recent days.
Because she found that even though she knew he was a scumbag and a sex maniac, she was actually shamefully tempted...
Isn't it just a face that is as stunning as a god?
So she has no moral values?
She is beyond saving!
