Chapter 1258 - 1260
Luo Zijun wanted to keep a low profile. Although she had sued Zhang Yan Yang, she regretted her impulsive decision at times.
She considered withdrawing the lawsuit, but hearing Zhang Yan Yang boast about her past disgraceful behavior made her so angry that she shook with rage.
Luo Zijun couldn’t even think about withdrawing the lawsuit; she just wanted to leave this place.
She didn’t dare to meet the gazes of the people around her, always feeling an overwhelming sense of their contempt.
When Luo Zijun returned to the dormitory, she dove under her covers and pulled the curtains down around her bed.
Qiao Yanran and the others were used to Luo Zijun not returning to the dorm, so they chatted openly.
When Gao Jing entered the dorm, she habitually glanced around and suddenly noticed that the curtains on Luo Zijun’s bed were drawn.
"Why are her curtains down?" Knowing Luo Zijun’s pettiness, everything she placed had a specific code.
She could detect anything out of place immediately and would shout out if someone touched her things.
Over time, everyone had designated a space just for her belongings, and her bed was absolutely off-limits.
"Who would touch it?"
"Exactly, touching it would be a big deal."
"Could she have come back herself?"
Everyone was speculating, genuinely puzzled. Since starting her internship, Luo Zijun had not been absent from school, but she was always bragging.
Why had she returned today without boasting and not wanting to see anyone? What was going on?
"Did she break up?" Qiao Yanran and the others recalled what Gong Ruini mentioned before. Coupled with Luo Zijun’s recent absence from classes and her internship, it was rumored that she had taken leave.
No matter how much Luo Zijun tried to cover it up, her actions betrayed her.
In the past, hearing about Luo Zijun’s breakups, they would offer some comfort despite their average relationship because it was a saddening ordeal.
But now, Qiao Yanran only wanted to burst into laughter, and if possible, have a celebration.
Someone used to be so smug, and now their day to cry had arrived.
"Hey, did you hear?" A girl from the neighboring dorm rushed over, seeing Qiao Yanran and others standing at the door.
Without checking the situation, she raised her voice, "Someone from the public security bureau intern group said that Luo Zijun sued her boyfriend Zhang Yan Yang."
What, Luo Zijun actually sued her boyfriend? What’s going on? Although many people were interning, which quieted the dorms, everyone returned daily.
Unless they lived in Beijing or had affluent families to rent nearby, and such cases were rare.
Furthermore, it was after work hours, and many had returned to the dorm. Hearing about this prominent figure at school, everyone came out of their dorms.
Oh no, was the thought on Gao Jing and others’ minds. If Luo Zijun wasn’t in the dorm, it would be fine, but with her inside, wouldn’t she explode?
"Why did she sue her boyfriend?"
"Weren’t they supposed to be in a good relationship?"
"Yeah, didn’t he help her secure a spot to stay in Beijing?"
"Listen, she accused him of QJ her," one said.
"QJ?" Really stunned.
"Are you sure?"
"It’s real," said the informer, assuring them of the truth.
Wow, if it’s true, "Could it be that he QJ-ed her, then used connections to keep her in Beijing?"
"No, no, the one who arranged the spot for her in Beijing was her ex-boyfriend. After he helped her get the spot, she kicked him out."
"The boyfriend she hooked up with later was her ex’s friend, with a powerful family. Otherwise, how would she advance without getting a formal role first?"
Qiao Yanran and the others might not know everything, but they were aware of some parts. They never imagined someone could dig up so much info.
They exchanged glances and remained silent, realizing the situation had become incredibly complicated, and decided to lie low since they had no backing.
"So why did she sue him?" Everyone was puzzled as he had been very supportive.
"Could she have a new boyfriend who could accelerate her promotion?" Given her past behavior, it seemed likely.
Luo Zijun knew she couldn’t completely hide this issue; she had only hoped the news would spread through the school slowly. However, it was developing rapidly.
So fast, she hadn’t figured out how to explain or smooth it over.
Covering her head with a blanket, Luo Zijun could still hear the chatter outside.
More importantly, Luo Zijun had stepped on many when she was triumphant. Would this chance to ridicule her be passed up?
Of course not. They would discuss it loudly for all to hear and see what Luo Zijun would do.
"But he said she consented, mentioning many of her scandalous deeds." The informer didn’t know how else to put it.
A male intern at the public security bureau, had no way to share those excessive details with female classmates, but surely shared back at the dorm.
Goodness, Luo Zijun was stunned. She knew the news from Zhang Yan Yang would reach the school, but didn’t expect it to spread overnight.
With more and more questions about Zhang Yan Yang’s statements, she grew desperate, "Hey, if you have time to gossip, maybe focus on your jobs instead."
"You all act like your jobs are perfect."
"What a bunch of trash; if you don’t work harder, you’ll just be errand girls wherever you go."
Luo Zijun’s sarcastic remarks provoked the gossiping girls.
Initially surprised at her words about their reality, they felt it was backtalk.
However, any discomfort vanished upon hearing Luo Zijun’s insults.
"Hey, no matter what, we rely on our strength, not like some relying on boyfriends."
"Going as far as to slander others for their goals."
Luo Zijun’s condescending tone incited them further; they didn’t care who was wrong anymore, seeing Luo Zijun entirely at fault.
