The dorm room had just quieted down when a phone suddenly rang.
Gu Nianzhi heard her phone ringing from the sofa and quickly got up to take it out of her bag.
Looking down, she saw it was He Zhichu.
He was her mentor, so she had to report to him for doing something like this.
Gu Nianzhi couldn't help feeling uneasy.
Also, she heard that He Zhichu went back to the United States two weeks ago. Was he back now?
How timely …
Gu Nianzhi thought about it silently as she unlocked her phone and quietly said, "Hello."
He Zhichu's cool voice sounded from the phone, "Nianzhi, are you okay?"
The first words from He Zhichu weren't reprimanding her, but worry.
Gu Nianzhi sighed softly and said quietly, "Professor He, I'm fine."
She hesitated for a moment before asking, "Professor He, where are you?"
He Zhichu didn't reply and knocked on the door after a while. He said into the phone, "I'm at your door."
Gu Nianzhi turned around in shock to look at the door, then at the campus police standing in the middle of the living room. She said awkwardly, "Oh, my mentor is here. It's Professor He …"
The campus police quickly opened the door to see a tall, elegant man standing there. He wore a khaki trench coat and had an indescribable aura and arrogance.
He scanned the room coldly and saw Gu Nianzhi standing up from the sofa. Her face was slightly swollen and the bruise at the corner of her eye was obvious.
He Zhichu strode in and walked over to Gu Nianzhi as if no one else was there. He lifted her chin and carefully examined the bruise at the corner of her eye before gently pressing on it.
Gu Nianzhi hissed and quickly shrank back with a frown, "It hurts, don't touch it …"
"Who hit you?" He Zhichu's voice was cold and emotionless, but it made people feel an invisible pressure.
Gu Nianzhi pursed her lips and didn't speak. She only looked at Miao Yunxiao across the living room. Ma Qiqi also pointed at Miao Yunxiao on the other side of the living room, "It was her, I saw it."
Miao Yunxiao saw He Zhichu's cold gaze sweep over and couldn't help shivering. She quickly said, "She hit me first! She hit me first! Look, this side of my face was slapped by her! "
She revealed the left side of her face where Gu Nianzhi had slapped her. Five finger marks could be vaguely seen.
He Zhichu glanced at her, then turned to Gu Nianzhi and asked, "Why did she hit you?"
Miao Yunxiao's eyes widened in disbelief.
Professor He Zhichu was openly siding with them!
This was too much!
What about the teacher's ethics? What about face?
Didn't they want it anymore?!
"Professor He, how can you say that?! She hit me first, but you're making it sound like I hit her first! "Miao Yunxiao was flustered and couldn't let the blame fall on her.
He Zhichu didn't want to pay attention to Miao Yunxiao at first, but she was so loud that it gave him a headache.
He looked at Miao Yunxiao again and asked coldly, "You said she hit you first, but where's the evidence? Witnesses, material evidence, bring them out for us to see. "
Miao Yunxiao choked.
At the time, only she and Gu Nianzhi were in the living room. Ma Qiqi had already entered the room by herself, so no one else had seen it.
Miao Yunxiao clenched her fists and turned to glare at Gu Nianzhi.
How treacherous! Too treacherous!
If she had known this would happen, she would have secretly installed a pinhole camera here …
"… So you don't have any evidence and just say she hit you first? — Student, are you a student of the Law Faculty? If you are, then I'd advise your tutor to reconsider your qualifications as a graduate student. How did you get into the B University Faculty of Law with your level of legal literacy? "He Zhichu mocked Miao Yunxiao without holding back.
Miao Yunxiao's eyes welled up with tears of mockery but she didn't dare nor could she talk back to He Zhichu because everything he said was reasonable. Legally speaking, she had no evidence to prove that Gu Nianzhi made the first move.
Gu Nianzhi could easily argue that Miao Yunxiao hit her first because as parties involved, their words couldn't be used as objective evidence.
"But …" Miao Yunxiao hesitated and looked from He Zhichu's aloof face to Gu Nianzhi's calm face, then to the campus police in the living room.
She felt like they were all laughing at her and panicked, "Professor He, you can't be like this, how can you speak up for her?!"
"Professor He is Classmate Gu's tutor, do you think he's helping an outsider instead of his own graduate student?"
As soon as Miao Yunxiao finished speaking, a woman's voice came from the door.
Everyone looked up to see it was Counselor Gui Suyao from the Masters of Law Class 1. She stood on He Zhichu and Gu Nianzhi's side as soon as she arrived.
Miao Yunxiao's heart sank when even the counselor was on Gu Nianzhi's side.
She covered her face and turned her head away. Her shoulders shook and she couldn't help crying.
He Zhichu frowned, one hand in the pocket of his trench coat and the other holding his briefcase. He said to Gui Suyao, "Counselor Gui, I'm just stating the facts. I have no intention of taking sides. They're both law students and I'm a law teacher. There's no way I'm taking sides."
Ma Qiqi's eyes widened.
Oh my! No wonder he's a great lawyer, he's a role model for us when he's lying with such righteousness!
As an outstanding lawyer, he had to be careful not to be tricked by others. He couldn't admit to anything politically incorrect, even if others were trying to curry favor with him.
Gui Suyao didn't expect He Zhichu to ignore her and blushed in front of the students and campus police. She felt indescribably awkward.
Miao Yunxiao pouted and thought to herself that Professor He's words were all righteous and flawless, but he was obviously taking Gu Nianzhi's side. However, no one could find fault with him. That was enough …
Gu Nianzhi didn't dare look up, afraid that someone would see the corners of her lips curl up.
The campus police in the middle of the living room finally came to smooth things over.
The head of the campus police was a middle-aged man in his late forties. He smiled at He Zhichu, "You're Professor He? We were the ones who notified you earlier. Is she your student? "He pointed at Gu Nianzhi.
He Zhichu nodded, "I'm her tutor. Is there anything else? I need to take her to the doctor to bandage her wounds. "
"That's right, that's right." The head of campus police nodded quickly, "What we meant was for them to both write a self-examination report and give it to their tutors. Then we'll let this matter go."
He Zhichu glared at Gu Nianzhi coldly and said quietly, "… Good for nothing!"
Gu Nianzhi's head drooped even lower.
"What exactly is going on? I still need to investigate it a bit. Thank you all for your hard work today. " He Zhichu nodded politely to the campus police and looked at Gu Nianzhi, "Come with me, I have some questions for you."
Gu Nianzhi nodded and picked up her backpack from the sofa. She obediently followed He Zhichu out of her dorm.
Miao Yunxiao saw this from her room and said unhappily, "She's leaving just like that?!"
"What else do you want? To go to court with you? " The campus police turned around to mock her, "Don't call the police for fun next time. That's illegal too, do you know?!"
"I called the police for fun?!" Miao Yunxiao was so angry she was tongue-tied, "How can you say that to me! I clearly … clearly … called the police because she hit me! "
"She hit you? Then you called back? You hit her even harder than she did? " The campus police shook their heads, "I advise you to let it go, it's better to avoid trouble. It's not like there's any irreconcilable hatred between us, so why hold on to it?"
…
Gu Nianzhi had just followed He Zhichu out of the dorm's elevator when she saw a tall, handsome man in a military uniform walk in.
Her eyes widened even more than Ma Qiqi's!
What's going on?!
Why is Huo Shao here too?!
