You're dumping me, huh? Fine, then I'll just pick up the school beauty and make her my wif

Su Qinghe pinched the zipper head with her fingertips and gently pulled it upwards.

The smooth damping sensation extends from the lower back to the shoulder blades without any interruption.

After changing her clothes, she looked at herself in the small mirror in the dressing room.

The girl's figure reflected in the mirror was outlined in a dark blue dress, making her slender and graceful, with smooth lines of her shoulders and neck like a swan.

"Not bad."

Su Qinghe turned around halfway with satisfaction, then pushed open the door to the dressing room and walked out.

The lighting in the dressing room is much brighter than in the changing room, which better showcases the elegance of the dress.

She walked up to a full-length mirror and looked at herself with admiration.

The sequined skirt spreads out above the knee, shimmering and sparkling as she walks.

"Wow--"

Just as Su Qinghe was basking in the beauty of her own face, an exaggerated exclamation suddenly came from behind her.

Su Qinghe turned around and saw Lin tide standing at the door of the dressing room with her mouth wide open.

"Qinghe, you're so beautiful!"

Lin tide put her things on the table next to her, rushed over in three steps, and circled Su Qinghe twice.

As she twirled around, she kept praising, "My goodness, the fabric, the cut, the sequins—"

"What an exaggerated old-money style!"

Lin tide reached out to touch the sequins on her skirt, but suddenly withdrew her hand halfway through.

Su Qinghe looked at Lin tide with a puzzled expression.

Lin tide wore an extremely serious expression, as if the object in front of her was some kind of national treasure.

She argued, "Forget it, my hands are sweaty, it's better not to touch them."

Su Qinghe was amused by her appearance: "It's not that exaggerated. It won't hurt to touch it. Touch it if you want."

"Why isn't it here!"

Lin tide snorted and said exaggeratedly, "If I were to dirty your skirt, wouldn't your Jiang Che break my legs?"

"How could that be? Ah Che isn't that heartless, okay?" Su Qinghe openly defended her.

As they were talking, Shen Shiyu and Zhao Weilan pushed open the door and walked in.

The two of them saw Su Qinghe standing in front of the mirror and reacted exactly like Lin tide had just done.

First, they both froze in place, then they both exclaimed "Wow!"

As Shen Shiyu walked over, she joked, "Qinghe, are you going to walk the red carpet today? Are you planning to go on stage and accept an Oscar?"

Zhao Weilan couldn't hide the amazement in her eyes either. She stepped forward and examined the sequined embroidery on the skirt more closely: "This pattern is so intricate, was it hand-sewn?"

"Yes, A-Che had it custom-made by a designer." Su Qinghe tugged at her skirt a little shyly. "I think it's too extravagant, but he said he has plenty of money and I can have it as long as I like it."

"..."

There was a two-second silence in the dressing room.

Lin tide turned to Shen Shiyu with a blank expression: "Shiyu, why is there such a big difference between people?"

Shen Shiyu sighed in agreement: "Don't ask me, I want to know too."

Zhao Weilan: +1

"But to be honest," Lin tide circled back to Su Qinghe and looked her up and down, "Jiang Che is really good to you. Putting aside the fact that a custom-made dress costs a lot of money, the fact that he has the initiative to think about you is really rare."

"Unlike Xu Wenbin, who promised to take me out for a nice meal on our last date, but it turned out to be just chicken cutlet rice on the second floor of the cafeteria!"

"What's wrong with the second floor of the cafeteria?" Shen Shiyu raised an eyebrow and asked, "Isn't the chicken cutlet rice delicious?"

"Smells good, my foot!" Lin tide stomped her foot angrily. "I want a beautiful meal! I want a romantic atmosphere! Don't you understand?!"

Zhao Weilan was also very open-minded, directly siding with Shen Shiyu and spreading her hands, saying, "What's the use of romance? Can romance put food on the table?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the girls couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Then they started laughing and joking around. Su Qinghe was pulled around in a circle by Lin tide, and then Lin tide hugged her waist from behind.

He said he wanted to compare his figure with hers.

Su Qinghe struggled to break free from Lin tide's embrace, laughing as she cried out, "Ouch, it tickles! Xi Xi, stop it, I'm dying of tickling!"

And at that very moment—

A soft "ripping" sound came from Su Qinghe's back.

It sounded like a string snapping.

Before Su Qinghe could react to what was happening, she suddenly felt a chill on her shoulder.

Immediately afterwards, the dark blue satin fabric slid down her shoulders.

The entire upper part of the dress, having lost its support, was falling off Su Qinghe's body at an extremely rapid speed.

"Eh eh eh—"

Lin tide was the first to react. With quick reflexes, she rushed forward and grabbed the front of her dress tightly with both hands as it was about to slip down.

He then pressed the fabric forcefully against Su Qinghe's chest, and almost crashed into her arms due to the inertia.

The air in the dressing room suddenly froze.

After realizing what was happening, Shen Shiyu turned around and quickly walked to the door of the dressing room, peeking out and looking around.

After confirming that no boys were passing by in the corridor, close the door and lock it from the inside.

"Holy crap!" Lin tide, still clutching the dress, looked at Su Qinghe with a trembling voice, both surprised and confused. "Hey, what's going on?"

Zhao Weilan quickly took a spare coat from the clothes rack next to her and draped it over Su Qinghe's bare shoulders.

In contrast, Su Qinghe, the person involved, reacted much more calmly than her three roommates.

She looked down at the dress that Lin tide had pressed against her chest, and the smile on her face gradually disappeared.

He then revealed a cold and indifferent expression.

The girl narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly and stood there silently for a few seconds, as if she was preparing something.

Her slender hands clenched tightly, then relaxed softly after a moment.

"Xixi, let go of me first. Let me take off my clothes and see what's going on." Su Qinghe's tone was as gentle as ever.

"Okay, okay."

Upon hearing this, Lin tide carefully released her grip, and then Su Qinghe put on her coat and went into the dressing room, taking off her dress completely.

The three of them immediately went over to check the situation.

Su Qinghe turned the dress over and placed it on the chair, frowning slightly as she carefully examined the garment.

A few seconds later, the girl let out a faint, cold laugh.

The zipper was completely broken at this point, and there were two broken teeth inside, with obvious signs of damage.

The break is very clean.

It doesn't look like a break caused by natural wear and tear; it looks more like it was broken by someone using some kind of tool.

Su Qinghe turned the dress over and found the two broken buttons on the back.

Most of the metal at the joint has been cut away, leaving only a small amount of remnant for support.

If she moves her body even slightly, the two points where the buckles were cut will not be able to withstand the pulling force.

This caused the zipper to break.

Then the dress slipped down.

Aside from Ye Qingru, Su Qinghe really couldn't think of anyone else who could do such a heinous thing.

Moreover, Ye Qingru was the only person in the entire school who had a grudge against her.

She's determined to make things difficult for herself.
