Chapter 21 -21 Known the Whole Picture, Take Immediate Action!
Lu Qingyan turned off her phone screen. As for Jiang Nanshu’s messages, she had sent him three, but he hadn’t replied to a single one, leaving her to her own devices.
“If only it were that simple,” said Lu Qingyan with one hand in her pocket, staring into the thick night. “Got woken up by her and can’t fall back asleep. Wanna go out for a drink?” she said to Yang Jiashu.
Yang Jiashu followed with a smile, “Sure, I live to serve. Shall we go? Same place as usual?”
…
Jiang Nanshu tip-toed back to the dormitory where the lights were already out.
Aside from her and Chen Qian, there were two other roommates in the dorm. Jiang Nanshu didn’t deign to know their names and never spoke to them, carrying herself with all the airs of an heiress.
Caught between turning on the lights or not, she felt a rare pang of conscience and decided, alright, I’ll just use my phone’s flashlight.
Tripping over a stool, Jiang Nanshu felt her way to her bed.
The next second, the lights came on.
“Chen Qian… you…”
The cute girl in pajamas got startled upon seeing Jiang Nanshu, immediately stuttering, “You, when did you get back?”
This was the first time Jiang Nanshu had come back to the dorm to sleep since the start of school.
Jiang Nanshu internally sighed at how scared the kid was.
Smiling, she amiably explained, “Chen Qian got injured and will be staying in the hospital for a while.”
“Okay, okay,” the girl replied dryly, then hurriedly climbed into bed, “I’m going to sleep now, goodnight.”
“Mhm, goodnight,” Jiang Nanshu responded absentmindedly.
The girl peeked out from under her blanket at Jiang Nanshu’s silhouette and suddenly felt like Jiang Nanshu seemed different.
Then she almost slapped herself. How could she think the bully had become less wicked? Something must be wrong with her head.
Jiang Nanshu quickly took a shower and lay in bed, with Lu Qingyan not replying to her.
She would send a cheesy goodnight sticker every day, never missing a beat.
Closing her eyes, she comfortably drifted off to sleep.
The next morning.
Jiang Nanshu climbed out of her bed.
Apart from the cute girl, there was another tall figure with a cold expression.
Upon seeing Jiang Nanshu, her eyebrows knit together unconsciously.
Turning her head, as if even seeing Jiang Nanshu polluted her eyes, she walked to the door shouting, “Xu Xi, let’s go. What are you waiting for?”
Xu Xi replied, “Wanwan, I’m coming.”
Hesitating for a moment, she approached Jiang Nanshu and mustered the courage to lay her phone in front of her, stammering, “I, I mean… don’t feel bad, I just…”
Jiang Nanshu glanced at the screen.
Well, another piece of gossip about her on the campus forum.

Even paparazzi photos were posted.
Lu Qingyan was having drinks when she bumped into Su Ran.
Jiang Nanshu: “…”
Brilliant.
