Chapter 2062: Chapter 2062: Lingering Desire to Return (29)
Midterm exam break.Jiang Jing and her two roommates walked towards the school gate.
At the gate, Lu Xinyi and Ye Mengyue parted ways with her: "Xiao Jing, we’ll leave first?"
"Okay."
Jiang Jing waved at the two, waited for them to leave, and then headed to the bus stop.
They came out a bit late today, so there weren’t many students at the bus stop. Jiang Jing walked over and sat down on an empty seat.
Several girls nearby gathered together to gossip.
Suddenly, a girl said, "Do you know about our school’s Hang Chuzheng?"
Jiang Jing heard Chuzheng’s name and immediately perked up her ears to listen.
"Who doesn’t know her, she’s a top student. Our class’s scores always rely on her."
"Let me tell you something, you definitely don’t know. That Hang Chuzheng..."
-
Returning from the midterm, Chuzheng immediately noticed her classmates looking at her strangely.
Curiosity, investigation, disgust, even fear...
Chuzheng: "..."
Did I do something without knowing it?
Chuzheng quickly figured out why these people were looking at her like that.
Her father’s scandal had been exposed.
What was bound to happen has happened.
Chuzheng sighed.
-
Chi Gui heard the news while eating in the cafeteria.
"I heard her dad has a mental illness and killed several people."
"I saw the news, it’s really terrifying..."
"Isn’t it said that mental illness can be inherited? Could she also have it?"
"Probably not, she seems pretty normal."
"Some mental illnesses appear very normal and then suddenly flare up, innocent people suffer then."
"True..."
"Her dad killed several people, the victims’ families are in agony, but she seems to be living well."
Bang—
The sound from the nearby table startled the students discussing hotly, and they turned to look.
Chi Gui’s reputation in Huahai had long spread across the school; seeing it was him, the students quickly shut up, grabbed their things, and left awkwardly.
Even though they didn’t understand what just bothered him...
Chi Gui, with a stern face, took out his phone and searched online.
Back then, the incident caused an uproar, and there were many old news articles online.
After reading the news, Chi Gui wanted to call Chuzheng but hesitated and chose to message her on WeChat instead.
[Chi Gui: Have you eaten?]
[Chuzheng: I have.]
[Chi Gui: Where are you?]
[Chuzheng: Classroom.]
[Chi Gui: I’ll come find you.]
Chi Gui arrived quickly, appearing outside the corridor, drawing the curiosity of students inside the classroom.
