Mr. Yan, wake up! Your wife isn't a delicate little flower.

"Why should I listen to you!" Qin Ruosu couldn't help but retort.

She danced today, but those things made her so tense that she messed up her dance.

If everything goes wrong, going out again will only make you feel like you're getting beaten up.

Cheng Xihe: "The playground. Five minutes. If you don't come, I'll make sure you never leave the playground again."

Her expression was fierce, and it didn't seem fake at all.

Even Qin Ruosu couldn't help but tremble when she heard her voice over the phone.

As soon as Mu Xiaoting opened the door, she heard Cheng Xihe say this.

She glanced at Cheng Xihe's expression.

It clearly says "I'm going to beat someone up."

Raising an eyebrow, Mu Xiaoting decided not to take a shower so early. She quietly slipped back and whispered a few words to Nan Xi.

Soon, the three of them hid to the side and listened to Cheng Xihe's phone call.

"Are you crazy?"

Qin Ruosu refused without hesitation: "Do you know that hitting people at school is wrong? Do you really have no regard for our relationship and want to hit me at school?"

"right!"

Cheng Xihe glanced at the time: "There are four and a half minutes left. You don't have much time left, Qin Ruosu."

Qin Ruosu shuddered: "Cheng Xihe, do you know that doing this will make your father..."

"If he knew what you'd done, how would you be any better off? Relying on your mother for help? Don't even think about it."

Cheng Xihe has already figured out Zhang Zhiyue's personality.

A sophisticated egoist.

He said he loved Qin Ruosu, but he loved himself even more.

Qin Ruosu's face flushed with anger: "How dare you swear at me!"

"Four minutes, Qin Ruosu. If you don't come soon, I'll expose what your mother did online. Then you'll be nothing but a burden..."

She didn't finish her sentence; every word was a threat, making Qin Ruosu's heart tremble.

She knew it very well.

If Cheng Xihe really wanted to hit her, not only Zhang Zhiyue, but even Qin Jian would get a beating.

She was panicking: "Xihe, I think there must be some misunderstanding here. You mustn't act rashly, really..."

"Three and a half minutes..."

"I'm coming right away!" Qin Ruosu didn't want to be caught doing those things in her own dorm room.

If everyone knew that she was a stepdaughter and a burden, how much would those who followed her hate her?

Especially Luo Qiqi, who is in prison, is even more remarkable.

She wasn't a legitimate daughter of the Qin family; she just appeared out of nowhere.

No, I can't let anyone know.

Holding her phone, Qin Ruosu's face turned extremely ugly.

Liu Meiyun had just returned and noticed Qin Ruosu's unusual expression, so she quickly asked, "Susu, what's wrong?"

"I think we might be getting into trouble?" the girl in the opposite bed asked, puzzled.

Liu Meiyun rolled her eyes and said, "I know, is it that illegitimate daughter from your village who bullied you?"

"No, don't talk nonsense, Meiyun..."

Qin Ruosu quickly grabbed her hand: "Look how pitiful Qiqi is. I've tried to persuade her so many times, but she just won't listen... Please don't do anything foolish..."

"I know."

Liu Meiyun patted Qin Ruosu's shoulder: "It's okay, why are you... Susu, why are you crying?"

Just as Liu Meiyun was about to say a few words of comfort to Qin Ruosu, she looked up and was completely stunned.

Qin Ruosu actually cried.

Her eyes were red and she reached out and grabbed Liu Meiyun's arm. "Ayun, I never thought my cousin would be so terrifying."

She's like a demon, you know?

The day she arrived at my house, she gave my younger brother a severe beating, to the point that he still screams whenever he sees her.

Even for her, the memory is so vivid that it gives her nightmares.

She was terrified, terrified of being beaten up by Cheng Xihe.

Cheng Xihe's fearless attitude, in particular, made her feel completely out of place.

"It's alright, Susu, what are you afraid of?" Liu Meiyun looked at Qin Ruosu with confusion.

Qin Ruosu leaned against her chest and whispered what had just happened: "What should I do now? Should I go over right away?"

"Go ahead, don't be afraid, I'll help you find someone." Liu Meiyun whispered a few words, "Don't worry, my brother is at that school, I have plenty of connections."

Hearing that someone was helping her, Qin Ruosu's mood improved considerably: "Is this really alright?"

"No problem, go ahead."

Patting Qin Ruosu on the shoulder, Liu Meiyun said, "It's welcome day for new students, and many people are going out to have fun."

With so many people coming and going, find a quiet, secluded corner where no one will notice you.

Knowing that Qin Ruosu would be in trouble with Cheng Xihe, Liu Meiyun had already thought of a way out for her.

Isn't it just because they're afraid of getting beaten up?

If we find more people, what are we afraid of?

How much strength could Cheng Xi and a little girl have?

In the end, they still manage to control us.

Grasping Liu Meiyun's arm, Qin Ruosu whispered, "Thank you, Meiyun. I don't know what I would have done without you."

"You're welcome, it's all I should do."

Liu Meiyun patted her chest and said, "I'll go down with you later. I'll be there to help you if there's any trouble."

"Okay, Meiyun, I don't know how to thank you..." Qin Ruosu looked at Liu Meiyun with her big, watery eyes.

Liu Meiyun took out her phone and made a call. She patted Qin Ruosu on the shoulder and said to the others, "You guys stay here and keep watch. Susu and I are going out for a walk."

"Okay, come back soon."

The roommates nodded and watched the two girls leave.

The training area in the corner of the playground.

Cheng Xihe sat on the sit-up machine and turned to look at the three girls sitting on parallel bars not far away.

"What are you three doing following me?"

She glanced at them, looking helpless.

Nanxi scoffed, "I just like to go out for a walk late at night, so what?"

"I... I'm just going out for a stroll with my sister-in-law, is that alright?" Mu Xiaoting glanced at Cheng Xihe and smiled.

Cheng Xihe turned to look at Huo Ying.

Huo Ying shrugged: "Just watching the show."

"Whatever!"

Cheng Xihe glanced into the distance.

Once they reached the playground, Qin Ruosu stopped Liu Meiyun, who was trying to follow her, and said, "I'll go first. If you don't see me in a few minutes, come find me. Please, please."

She was trembling all over; her fear was emanating from within.

Liu Meiyun frowned: "I'll go with you."

"No need, just do as I said before."

Qin Ruosu left, trembling.

Nanxi yawned: "How long has it been? Why hasn't anyone arrived yet?"

"immediately."

Cheng Xihe looked over with sharp eyes.

Wearing a blue dress and a small shawl, Qin Ruosu walked slowly towards us.

Cheng Xihe waved to her: "Here."

Her expression was like she was barking at a dog.

Qin Ruosu's smile froze, and she remained standing still.

Cheng Xihe stood up expressionlessly: "Can't you hear me? Come here!"

Fearing Cheng Xihe's anger, Qin Ruosu walked over with a pale face...
