Chapter 1178 1176: So Much Better Than Her
Although everyone is willing to help.
Grandpa Chu continues to sigh incessantly.
Because he knows the situation of the people living here.
If they had extra money, who would want to live in this shabby place?
Getting everyone to gather 1.8 million.
It's simply a pipe dream.
Moreover, Chu Xingyao is in that place now, who knows how those people will treat her.
Lin Xi's face also doesn't look good.
If it were before.
She could easily take out 1.8 million.
But now, it's tight for her too.
After all, Yimena's salary can hardly be paid.
"Grandpa, don't worry, I'll help you bring Yaoyao back," Su Chen said deeply.
As for Chu Xingyao.
Su Chen still feels a lot of sympathy for her.
The qualities she possesses are truly moving.
Indeed, in today's society, many women choose to take shortcuts.
However, there are still some women who are like pure white lotuses, not tainted by the mud.
Unpolluted by the secular world.
They hold fast to their original intentions.
Although Chu Xingyao appeared in an entertainment venue.
Su Chen still feels that she must have her own reasons.
"Young man, I can't trouble you anymore," said Grandpa Chu.
"It's no trouble at all; Chu Xingyao is a good kid, and I don't want to see her get bullied either."
"Then, thank you, benefactor, I, I..." Grandpa Chu wanted to express his gratitude to Su Chen.
But he didn't know how to repay Su Chen.
He had nothing to offer as repayment.
Su Chen has already helped Chu Xingyao twice.
This time would be the third.
With no other option, Grandpa Chu was about to kneel down to Su Chen in gratitude.
"Grandpa, please don't do that, or I'll feel guilty. Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to Xingyao. First, try to see if you can reach her by phone," Su Chen assured him.
The old man immediately took out his phone and dialed Chu Xingyao's number.
The call connected.
"Yaoyao."
"Grandpa, I'm in class right now. I'll call you later," said Chu Xingyao before hanging up.
Although she covered the phone, Su Chen could still hear the noise from the other end of the line.
It sounded like a place such as a KTV.
It's already around four or five in the afternoon.
KTVs have started operating.
Grandpa Chu called again.
This time, Chu Xingyao directly hung up the call.
When called again, the phone was turned off.
"What should we do?" Grandpa Chu also sensed that something was wrong.
Chu Xingyao would never hang up on him first.
If she were in class.
She wouldn't have answered the first call.
"Grandpa Chu, don't worry, let's go to the school first and take a look."
"I'll leave it to you then." Grandpa Chu looked hopeful.
Now, Su Chen was his only hope.
Leaving the slum area, Su Chen and Lin Xi headed straight for Jiangdu University.
Perhaps Chu Xingyao might actually be at school at this time.
If they found her at the school, it would be a pleasant surprise.
Su Chen first found Chu Xingyao's beautiful counselor, Ouyang Yunchu.
But he didn't ask about Chu Xingyao directly.
He didn't want the beautiful Teacher to find out that Xingyao worked there.
He just said he wanted to stroll around the university.
Ouyang Yunchu had a deep impression of Su Chen.
"By the way, how is Xingyao doing in her studies?" Su Chen deliberately feigned a casual inquiry.
Ouyang Yunchu frowned slightly at this and said, "The kid's academic performance is alright, but she's been taking a lot of leave recently."
It's actually quite normal for university students to take leave.
So Ouyang Yunchu wasn't too concerned.
"Oh, why does she take leave?" Su Chen asked with a frown.
"I'm not sure; it's said she's doing some part-time job, you know, many university students like taking part-time jobs now. As long as it doesn't affect their studies, we don't care. Early exposure to society can be quite good," Ouyang Yunchu explained.
"How long has this been going on?" Su Chen asked.
"Not long, a little over a week I think."
"Did she come to class today?"
"Today, probably not. I remember she had taken leave yesterday, saying she'd come back tomorrow." At this point, Ouyang Yunchu seemed to sense something and asked, "What's going on? Did something happen to Chu Xingyao?"
"Oh, no, it's just that I haven't seen her in a while and wanted to catch up, but it turns out she's not at school," Su Chen replied.
"Come by tomorrow; she should be attending class then," Ouyang Yunchu said.
"Alright, thank you, Teacher Ouyang."
"You're welcome." The beautiful teacher with gold-rimmed glasses nodded at Su Chen and said, "I have a class now, so I'll take my leave."
"Goodbye, Teacher Ouyang."
After bidding farewell to Ouyang Yunchu, Su Chen and Lin Xi walked side by side through the university campus.
"Here, put on your hat!" Seeing the snow falling heavily, Su Chen pulled up the hood of Lin Xi's coat and put it over her head.
Then, as they searched for their car,
while passing by the small lake on the campus,
suddenly, a female student rushed out from the side.
She kicked Lin Xi into the lake with a single step.
Just as Su Chen was about to react,
he was met with a barrage of scolding.
"What's wrong with my sister? Even though she's a bit older, isn't she still pretty? Her figure is okay too, isn't it! And here you are, seducing female university students at the campus. Brother-in-law, how could you betray my sister!"
The female student who kicked Lin Xi into the lake angrily waved her little fist and said.
It was none other than Lin Shuang'er.
"That's..."
Su Chen wanted to say, that's your sister, but Lin Shuang'er didn't give Su Chen a chance to speak, "What's that? Brother-in-law, tell me, are you that desperate? If you like female university students, why not just come to me? Am I not a female university student? Am I not pretty?!"
Forget it, Su Chen couldn't be bothered to explain further, preparing to jump into the lake to rescue Lin Xi.
However, before he could jump in,
Lin Shuang tightly hugged him from behind.
"Brother-in-law, you still want to save that vixen? I won't let you; let her drown!" Lin Shuang'er held onto Su Chen tightly from behind.
"Shuang'er, let go, you're misunderstanding!"
"Misunderstanding? What's there to misunderstand? I just saw you putting a hat on her; aren't you putting a green hat on my sister?"
Lin Shuang'er refused to let go.
"Hey, brother-in-law, even though my sister has a bad temper and a strange personality, I can't stand her bad temper either, but she's still your wife. What you're doing is called cheating, you know!"
"Even if you want to cheat, can't you find someone decent? You can't just settle for any random person, right?"
"If that's the case, why not just choose me? Don't let the fat from our field flow to outsiders, and this way, even if my sister finds out, she might be more accepting since I'm much better than her..."
Lin Shuang'er clung tightly to Su Chen, prattling on incessantly.
