Chu Yi’s eyes flashed with a hint of gloom, while Ruan Qing’s body stiffened.
Outside Professor Chu’s office, someone was watching the two on the sofa, and they were directly stunned in place.
Ruan Qing reacted first; he immediately got off Chu Yi’s leg, bowed his head, and turned away from the door, his figure trembling slightly.
The person at the door didn’t dare to look at them.
After all, it wasn’t very respectable for a professor to do such a thing with a student.
The one who just came in was none other than Ning Mufeng.
Ning Mufeng looked at the young man with his back to the door for a moment, then continued speaking, “Professor Chu, it seems the police are looking for you. They want you to go there for a moment.”
Chu Yi, upon hearing this, showed a trace of impatience. What now? He looked at Ruan Qing, his tone softening a bit, “Wait for me in the office; I’ll be right back.”
Ruan Qing didn’t turn around, just nodded slightly.
“Alright.” As Chu Yi passed by Ning Mufeng, he casually spoke, showing no intention of asking Ning Mufeng to come to the office.
Ning Mufeng didn’t say anything either, just followed Chu Yi and left.
Ruan Qing breathed a sigh of relief.
Originally, he wanted to stall for time and wait for a text message from the person he was supposed to meet. Unexpectedly, Ning Mufeng happened to come.
Without wasting time, after the two left, he put on his mask and prepared to leave the office.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened the door, he saw Ning Mufeng at the door.
Ruan Qing instinctively wanted to close the door, but Ning Mufeng directly pushed it open.
Ruan Qing lightly pursed his lips, lowered his head without looking at Ning Mufeng.
Ning Mufeng looked at Ruan Qing and smiled lightly. His tone sounded pleasant, “Student Wang, your business seems quite extensive; you’re even accepting clients at school.”
Ruan Qing looked up at Ning Mufeng, tightly gripping the sleeve of his clothes, a bad premonition forming in his heart.
What... did he mean?
“But Student Wang, you’re quite impressive. I didn’t expect Professor Chu to be your client.” Ning Mufeng’s tone was calm and polite, much like his usual self.
It’s as if he was praising someone.
As long as one was not foolish, anyone could tell that Ning Mufeng’s words were not praise.
Moreover, it’s evident that he also knew about Ruan Qing’s involvement in that kind of work.
Ruan Qing widened his eyes, and his delicate face turned pale.
Ning Mufeng looked at the person whose expression changed, his smile unchanged, curiosity in his eyes, as if genuinely wanting to know, “How is Professor Chu’s skill?”
“Can he satisfy you?”
Ruan Qing’s face turned even paler, tears in his eyes, but he stubbornly refused to let them fall. “It’s not that...”
Perhaps Ruan Qing’s voice was too low; Ning Mufeng didn’t hear it. He tilted his head, a hint of confusion on his handsome face. “What?”
Ruan Qing gathered courage to look at Ning Mufeng, raising his voice a bit in contradiction. “It’s not like that.”
“I... I am going out with Professor Chu.”
Ning Mufeng couldn’t help but laugh directly. His laughter was warm, angelic, but his words were entirely different from his expression. “Are you serious?”
“Are you really taking Professor Chu’s words in bed seriously?”
There was sympathy and pity in Ning Mufeng’s eyes, giving a sense of looking down from a height. “You’re really pitiful.”
“I advise you not to trust Professor Chu’s words too much. After all, men’s promises in bed are often unreliable. If he gets bored one day...”
How someone pitiful and jealous of the other would react, it should be with anger. Moreover, it would be an opportunity to leave directly.
But being harsh on Ning Mufeng would definitely lead to a quicker death.
Ruan Qing observed the surroundings with the corner of his eye.
After confirming that there was no one around, Ruan Qing tightly clenched his sleeves, the corners of his eyes slightly red, his emotions somewhat out of control. He interrupted Ning Mufeng’s words, “Who do you think you are?”
“What qualifications do you have to say about me?”
“You just rely on having a good family background.”
“You’ve never known what it feels like to go hungry or be beaten every day. You only know how to look down from a high place and pity me.”
“Even if Professor Chu is deceiving me, so what? He can give me money and everything I want.”
“Even if I’m being deceived, I’m willing.”
Ruan Qing finished speaking and forcefully pushed Ning Mufeng away, leaving Ning Mufeng standing in place, looking somewhat dazed.
Ruan Qing, seeing that Ning Mufeng didn’t follow, sighed in relief.
He looked around, seeing no one, and went straight to the rooftop where a student had fallen before.
Because Chu Yi had kept him in the office discussing academic issues for nearly three hours, he missed lunchtime.
There weren’t many people around the teaching building.
However, any traces of the student jumping off the building had been thoroughly cleaned, leaving no sign of blood.
Moreover, it seemed like there were rumors among students that someone had committed suicide by jumping off the building, and no one suspected foul play.
Ruan Qing cautiously avoided the crowd and slowly ascended to the rooftop.
Normally, the rooftop was locked, and the recent suicide added an extra layer of security.
Although the door seemed closed, the lock had been... opened by someone.
Was there someone on the rooftop?
The culprit, perhaps?
Coming to eliminate their own traces?
Ruan Qing hesitated as he looked at the door that could easily be pushed open.
His combat abilities were virtually negligible, and if it was the culprit, entering now would be akin to suicide.
There would be one more ‘jumped off the building’ case.
Unless the culprit was a physics major. Ruan Qing had memorized all the physics majors and could directly expose their names.
But if it wasn’t a physics major...
Just as Ruan Qing was considering giving up and leaving, footsteps echoed from near the stairs.
The sound grew louder and closer.
The building had several floors, with the fifth floor being the laboratory. Unless there were classes, there weren’t many people on it.
But those footsteps sounded like they were heading to the fifth floor?
No, it was highly likely they were heading to the rooftop.
The person intended to go to the rooftop!
Who was it?
Coming to investigate the situation, or was it another player?
No, players usually prefer to act collectively.
But there were also those who acted alone.
If it’s a player, they might just slightly disrupt the character setting here.
But what he was afraid of was... the culprit.
Ruan Qing now found himself in a dilemma. It was already too late for him to go downstairs.
Because that person had already reached the corner of the fourth floor.
About to reach... the fifth floor soon.
Chu Yi’s eyes flashed with a hint of gloom, while Ruan Qing’s body stiffened.
