Marrying My Bestie's Ferocious Brother - He Calls Me His Baby! Chapter 141 - 140: I’m Reporting Them! They Locked the Door
Lin Wan Yi put down her pen and gently sighed.
She tilted her head and froze.
In the corner of the desk, a small row of neatly arranged pencils was laid out.
Each one was sharpened to a perfect point, the tips long and glinting black.
Like a squad of soldiers waiting for her inspection.
She looked up.
Gu Yanshen, sitting on a small stool, had at so point put down the military knife he was holding.
He brought over a basin of warm water and placed it by her feet.
Then, he squatted down and held her hand that had just finished writing.
Lin Wan Yi’s fingers were stained with a few stubborn ink marks.
Gu Yanshen picked up a towel, wetted it, and wrung it dry.
With his eyes lowered, he carefully wiped her fingers one by one with the warm towel.
His movents were light and slow, focused as if he were cleaning a priceless treasure.
In the dim yellow light, his well-defined profile appeared incredibly gentle.
Lin Wan Yi didn’t speak.
She just watched him, a warm emotion filling her heart.
The next day.
As soon as the class bell rang, students poured out of the teaching building like a tide.
At the classroom entrance.
That tall and upright figure appeared once more, right on ti.
Gu Yanshen, wearing a clean white shirt, stood there as if he were an unmissable landscape.
He took the books from Lin Wan Yi’s arms, and with his other hand, naturally held hers.
"Let’s go."
The two walked side by side on the tree-lined path.
All around, countless gazes clung to them, filled with admiration, jealousy, and whispered discussions.
"Oh, there they go again, co rain or shine."
"Look at how he carries those books, that arm is thicker than my thigh."
"I saw him pick up a kid yesterday, carrying a cradle in each hand without batting an eye."
"Lin Wan Yi must have saved the galaxy in a past life."
Gu Yanshen paid no heed to these voices.
All his attention was on the person beside him.
"Did you understand everything the teacher explained today?"
"Yes, it wasn’t difficult."
"What do you want to eat at ho? I’ll have Nanny Wang prepare it for you."
"Anything’s fine."
The two walked slowly, as sunlight filtered through the leaves, casting mottled shadows over them.
In the shadow of the teaching building.
Chen Zhiyuan leaned against the wall, one hand in his pocket, the other wrapped in a yellowed bandage.
His gaze was like a venomous snake lurking in the darkness, fixated on the receding backs of the pair.
He watched how the man naturally kept the woman on the inside, shielding her from the crowd.
He watched their closely held hands, so harmonious, yet so glaring.
A surge of humiliation and bitterness churned in his chest.
He suddenly noticed a detail.
Gu Yanshen always waited only below the Agricultural College’s teaching building.
A sinister thought quickly took shape in his mind.
A faint cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
The afternoon’s last class ended.
Lin Wan Yi had just finished packing her books, preparing to leave with Gu Lan.
"Classmate Lin, please wait a mont."
A voice called from behind.
Lin Wan Yi turned around.
It was Chen Zhiyuan.
Today, he wore a clean Zhongshan suit, glasses on his nose, with a scholarly, humble smile on his face.
His bandaged hand was kept hidden behind him.
"What is it?" Lin Wan Yi asked.
Gu Lan imdiately stepped forward, eyeing him warily.
"What do you want this ti?"
Chen Zhiyuan didn’t look at Gu Lan; his gaze was sincerely fixed on Lin Wan Yi.
"Classmate Lin, I want to apologize for my previous rudeness and prejudice."
He bowed slightly to Lin Wan Yi.
"That day in the library, after witnessing your talent, I realized how narrow-minded I was."
Gu Lan made a face of disbelief.
Chen Zhiyuan lowered his stance considerably.
"Here’s the thing. Professor Qian’s seminar on probability left us with a tough problem about Markov chains, and after an afternoon of discussion, we were at a loss."
He pulled out a small notebook from his pocket, filled with dense equations.
"We’re really stuck, and Professor Qian remarked that if you were there, you might offer a new perspective."
"Therefore, I boldly invite you to the Mathematics Departnt’s seminar room to take a look."
He invoked Professor Qian’s na, leaving no gaps in his words.
The students nearby, who hadn’t left yet, showed expressions of admiration upon hearing this.
Truly deserving of being the second in the province: recognizing faults, correcting them, and being so eager to learn.
Gu Lan tugged on Lin Wan Yi’s sleeve, whispering.
"Sister-in-law, don’t believe him, it’s like a weasel offering New Year greetings to a chicken – no good intentions!"
Chen Zhiyuan heard that and let out a bitter smile.
"Classmate Gu Lan, I understand your skepticism. But academic discussions shouldn’t be mixed with personal grudges."
"We’re genuinely facing a problem, just ten minutes of Classmate Lin’s ti, okay?"
Lin Wan Yi looked at him.
She knew there was definitely sothing fishy about this.
But she had absolute confidence in herself.
In the face of absolute strength, any conspiracy is a paper tiger.
She was curious to see what dicine he was selling in his gourd.
"Alright."
She agreed.
A faint, almost imperceptible gleam of joy flashed in Chen Zhiyuan’s eyes.
"Sister-in-law!" Gu Lan exclaid anxiously.
Lin Wan Yi patted her hand, giving her a reassuring look.
"Xiao Lan, you go back first. Tell your brother I’ll co by shortly."
"But..."
"Go." Lin Wan Yi’s tone brooked no argunt.
Gu Lan had no choice but to leave, looking back every few steps.
"Classmate Lin, please, this way."
Chen Zhiyuan led the way, heading in the opposite direction from the Agricultural College.
They crossed the playground, went around the auditorium, and arrived at the most secluded old teaching building on campus.
This was the Mathematics Departnt’s old building, dimly lit, with empty hallways.
On the third floor, Chen Zhiyuan stopped at a classroom door and pushed it open.
"Here it is."
Lin Wan Yi walked in.
The classroom was deserted, with only a few shabby desks and chairs.
Though there was half a problem written on the blackboard, there wasn’t a single scrap of paper around that indicated any intense discussion had occurred.
"Where is everyone?" Lin Wan Yi turned around, her voice turning cold.
The courteous smile on Chen Zhiyuan’s face at the door gradually disappeared.
In its place was a sense of triumph from a plot successfully carried out.
"They’re not here."
He leaned against the doorfra, blocking the only exit.
"Professor Qian isn’t either."
He articulated each word with precision.
"Lin Wan Yi, I lied to you."
Lin Wan Yi looked at him, her face showing no surprise, her gaze frighteningly calm.
"I know."
She said lightly and then turned to head toward the door.
At that mont.
"Bang!"
The dilapidated wooden door of the classroom was kicked open from the outside.
Liu iqin, her face full of malice and excitent, was the first to rush in.
Behind her were seven or eight students there for the spectacle, plus two middle-aged n in blue uniforms, wearing "Security" armbands.
All eyes were focused on the lone male and female inside the classroom.
Liu iqin extended her finger, pointing directly at Lin Wan Yi, her voice shrill enough to split eardrums.
Her face twisted with a vengeful glee.
With all her might, she scread to the security personnel and every student who had gathered at the sound.
"Security officers! Quickly! Catch them!"
"I’m reporting them! I saw it with my own eyes! The two of them are eting in secret, engaging in an inappropriate relationship!"
"They even locked the door from the inside!"
