Jiang Zheng pursed her lips angrily and said nothing. Gao Jing pulled her arm and shook it gently.

"Jiang Zheng, don't be angry. I know you are doing this for my own good. It's over now. After Ji Ling vented her anger this time, she won't talk about it again. Let it go."

"You are so easy to bully, that's why Ji Ling dares to bully you. Look at the six people in the dormitory, does she dare to bully others?" Jiang Zheng became angrier the more she thought about it.

Afterwards, Gao Jing was left lying down while she went to call the nurse and then got up and left.

Jiang Yihang sat still, looking at Gao Jing calmly, "Gao Jing, if you feel wronged, go and talk to Ji Ling. Just like Zheng Zheng said, it's useless for you to give in blindly. You can see that Zheng Zheng feels sorry for you. I think it's better to make this matter clear, otherwise these words will spread privately, what will you do if you are pointed at by others?"

Gao Jing's face turned pale. "I don't care. Anyway, everyone knows that I was able to get into college because an old man paid for my education. Now that I'm in college, I don't want the man anymore. It was your family who helped me solve it. I don't care even if I have a bad reputation."

Jiang Yihang looked at her. "Our family kept this matter very secret and never told anyone about it. How could anyone discuss it in private?"

Gao Jing lowered her head, "Miao Man in the dormitory knows about this."

Jiang Yihang kept staring at her. He didn't like Gao Jing. In his opinion, Gao Jing was using pity to win her sister's sympathy and desire for protection. But at the same time, another voice seemed to tell her that the person in front of her was pitiful.

She had a miserable life and had her own dreams. Her family did not agree to let her go to school. In order to realize her dreams, she entrusted her life to an old man. It was not until the old man had no bottom line and found a woman outside and asked her to support him that she rebelled in anger.

Jiang Yihang grew up in a honeypot and had never suffered any hardship. Seeing how difficult it was for a rural girl to make a name for herself, she was filled with awe.

Thinking of this, the slight repulsion in his heart also dissipated unconsciously. "Since you don't want to pursue it anymore, then forget it. I see that you and Jiang Zheng are not happy living in the dormitory. Do you want me to talk to the dormitory teacher and let us move to the same dormitory next semester?"

"Brother Jiang, I can do it. I wonder if Jiang Zheng will agree."

"She can be anywhere, that's settled." Jiang Yihang got up and went out.

He waited in the corridor for a while and let the nurse go in to check. He pulled his sister aside and told her what had just happened. Jiang Zheng nodded and thought it would be a good idea to change the dormitory.

"In the future, you should stay as far away from me as possible in class." After saying this, Jiang Yihang reminded her, "You have made a mistake today regarding everything about Ji Ling and her relationship with the Zhu family. Don't mention those things again in the future."

Jiang Zheng didn't care. "Chang Ya told me this, and it's true. I'm not making it up."

"That won't work either. What did our parents teach us? Don't gossip about other people's affairs. Just take care of yourself. Trouble comes from the mouth. You have to remember these principles."

Jiang Zheng nodded and did not refute this time.

After a morning class, Jiang Zheng and Gao Jing returned to the classroom and sat down in the empty seats at the back.

Ji Ling and the other four sat in the front and stayed far away when waiting for lunch. The two of them did not return to the dormitory at noon.

Miao Man couldn't bear it, "You were the one who woke up last night and found out she had a fever. You didn't even say thank you. Now you're avoiding us like you're avoiding a tattoo. What have we done to them?"

"I'm not hiding from you, I'm hiding from me." Ji Ling advised her.

Miao Man was about to say something, but Ji Ling changed the subject, "I'll go to your house during the holiday this week and talk to your dad about customizing those bottles."

"Okay, then let's go together after school." Miao Man immediately forgot the unpleasantness just now.

In the days that followed, no one mentioned Ji Ling's previous suggestion of looking for Wang Ermei to confront Gao Jing.

By Friday, Ji Ling was thinking of going home to call Zhu Weidong first and then go to Miao's house. As a result, Zhu Heping came to tell her that Zhu Weidong had already gone to the southwest and left in a hurry. She originally wanted to come to the school in person, but a car full of people were waiting, so she did not come.

"What day did you leave?"

"It's Tuesday."

"Then why are you telling me now?" Ji Ling was not angry, but she and Zhu Heping were in the same school and saw each other every day.

"I'm not afraid that you'll be sad."

Hearing Zhu Heping's caring tone, Ji Ling didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "It's my business whether I'm sad or not. Tell me about it in advance next time."

Zhu Heping smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, if that's the case, then let's go back to the old house. Grandma is worried about you being alone at home."

"I have to go to a classmate's house to do something and will be back in the evening. It's a good opportunity for you to go back and tell grandma first." Ji Ling grinned, "Aren't you going home just in time?"

Zhu Heping said, "I went back to accompany you. In that case, I'll call home and tell them that I have something to do here too."

Without waiting for Ji Ling to say anything more, the man ran away.

Miao Man looked envious, "I didn't expect your uncle to be so honest in front of you, not like he usually fights in school."

Ji Miao smiled and said, "He has a good temper. It was always others who started the fight, otherwise why would he do it?"

“That’s right.”

The two were walking in front and didn't notice Jiang Yihang behind them. Jiang Yihang frowned after hearing Ji Ling's words. In his impression, Ji Ling has always been very sensible, but her words just now were obviously biased towards Zhu Heping. He knew very well what Zhu Heping's reputation was in the school, but after what Ji Ling said, he became a good student.

When he encountered Gao Jing before, he thought that Gao Jing was pretending to be pitiful. Now it seems that in some cases, he wanted to think Ji Ling was good first, and then became displeased with Gao Jing.

Ji Ling had no idea that Jiang Yihang would think that she had a bad character because she protected her family. She and Miao Man arrived at Miao's house, but not long after they waited, Miao's father came back.

The things that Ji Ling customized in their factory were beautiful and novel, which rekindled hope for the employees in the factory and made them feel that the factory was saved. Their factory had not received any big orders for a long time and had to rely on making the handicrafts it used to make. The products were expensive and there were few private orders. Now there were more things to give as gifts, so not many people chose handicrafts.

Ji Ling came here this time and also wanted to customize some other glass products, such as plates and bowls. As long as these are made beautifully, they are all fine.

She discussed business matters at the Miao family until dark. Miao's mother prepared dinner and Ji Ling did not refuse, which made the Miao family very happy.

At the Zhu Family compound, when Grandma Zhu saw that the perverted black man hadn't come back yet, she said, "Let's not wait any longer. Leave some for Xiaoling. Let's eat first."
