Chapter 74: Do You Like Her That Much?
“Then have you thought about what your sister would be facing if she hadn’t memorized it?” Qiao Sheng paused and put away the USB flash drive. He stood by the table and laughed. “Also, you seem to be very malicious towards your sister? She’s not the kind of person who will seek help from others.”
“How do you know she isn’t that kind of person?” Qin Yu stared at Qiao Sheng and asked. “I’ve seen her like that many times. She doesn’t say anything, but she acts like she had been wronged. Just look at how your whole class is acting sympathetic to her experience. If you publish the video, wouldn’t you make Wu Yan discriminated against? No one can beat her in terms of tactics.”
Qiao Sheng understood Qin Ran more or less since they had been in contact for a long time.
Qin Ran was really cold, and also fought well.
Would a person who had even conquered Wei Zihang show weakness to him?
Qiao Sheng didn’t even dare to speak too loudly when she was in a bad mood and just casually glanced at him. He also didn’t dare to associate the word “weak” with Qin Ran.
He had always felt like Qin Ran was somewhat unpredictable, and he didn’t know what kind of environment had developed such a character like hers.
“She’s my friend, so I definitely know her character. Qin Yu, I don’t need you to lecture me. I’m not stupid and I have my own judgment.” Qiao Sheng sneered and kicked the chair further away. He made a path for himself and then ran a hand through his hair. “Young Master Xu, I’m going to the cafeteria.”
Qin Yu let Qiao Sheng’s words sink in.
She realized with a sinking heart that Qiao Sheng was on Qin Ran’s side. His attitude was firm and he wouldn’t be shaken. He really had no doubt about Qin Ran.
Qin Yu stood there and felt the boys staring at her. She couldn’t help but purse her lips. She didn’t expect Qiao Sheng to really not give her face.
Her eyes shook slightly as she said, “Qiao Sheng, we’ve known each other for two years, but you’ve only known her for one month. Can it be compared?”
“At least she won’t tell tales in front of me.” Qiao Sheng paused and snorted.
Qin Yu gritted her teeth and looked at Qiao Sheng’s back inconceivably.
Qin Ran’s tactic was really brilliant.
Silently, she had subdued both Lin Jinxuan and Qiao Sheng.
Qin Yu sucked in a deep breath and stared after Qiao Sheng. Her eyes flashed a sense of unwillingness, but she quickly covered it up.
“Young Master Xu, Qiao Sheng refuses to listen to my explanation. But you…” Qin Yu sighed, pursed her lips, and said in a low tone.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtXu Yaoguang squeezed his phone and looked up at her. “You want me to plead with Qiao Sheng, eh? But this time, Wu Yan has really gone overboard.”
“I know Wu Yan is at fault, but she is my friend. She will really be ruined if I don’t care about her.” Qin Yu sighed and lowered her eyebrows. “You don’t have to make such a big fuss over this matter. You don’t have to be so cruel to Wu Yan when you’re all classmates.”
Xu Yaoguang stood sideways, his expression cold as always.
“We have known each other for two years and I have never asked anything of you before. But this time, I’m begging you, okay?” Qin Yu tilted her head and smiled gently.

In the cafeteria.
Qiao Sheng was having dinner with several of his brothers in class 3.9.
“Qin Yu didn’t follow?” Qiao Sheng saw that the boys had already packed Xu Yaoguang’s meal and glanced behind him. He put his foot on the table and laughed.
“She went to practice the violin. I have something to talk to you about.” Xu Yaoguang sat down beside Qiao Sheng and picked up the chopsticks beside the bowl.
Qiao Sheng nodded and expressed his understanding. “Are you going to watch her practice after talking to me?”
After spending such a long time with Xu Yaoguang, he also understood him completely. He really liked those who played the violin, and Qin Yu was good at it.
Qiao Sheng had often gone with Xu Yaoguang to listen.
But now, Qiao Sheng didn’t really have much contact with Qin Yu and rarely visited her.
“Yeah.” Xu Yaoguang put a piece of vegetable in his mouth and then spoke after swallowing it. “It’s enough to just lecture Wu Yan privately. Don’t publish the video.”
Qiao Sheng paused.
He slammed his chopsticks on the table and was quite annoyed. He put his hands on the table and asked, “No way, Young Master Xu. Did Qin Yu beg you?”
“Yeah.” Xu Yaoguang didn’t deny it.
“Damn it!” Qiao Sheng clenched his fists and hit the table.
On the opposite side of the table, a spoon on the edge of the table fell to the ground with a shock, making a crisp sound.
The students all ate their meals sullenly, not daring to even glance at Qiao Sheng.
Xu Yaoguang was still calm and was holding his chopsticks as elegantly as always. “I’ll owe you a favor for this.”
“Young Master Xu, I know you really like Qin Yu, but do you really need to do this for her?” Qiao Sheng was very annoyed and leaned back in his seat.
“She indeed plays well.” Xu Yaoguang remembered the song he had heard downstairs in the art building that day. Later, he had looked through the surveillance cameras, but the violinist had avoided all the cameras.
If he wasn’t so logical, he would have almost believed that it wasn’t human.
However, he was very clear that Qin Yu wasn’t the one who had played the violin that day.
“I’ve heard her play for two years and this is the first time she begged me.” Xu Yaoguang narrowed his eyes and looked over at Qiao Sheng. “So do you agree?”
Qiao Sheng clenched his fists and then let go weakly.
Then, he sighed. “Young Master Xu, how could I disobey you?”
But since he had already compromised, Qiao Sheng couldn’t help but vent. “Young Master Xu, what are you trying to do? Do you really like her that much? Other than not being able to play the violin, Qin Ran is much cuter than her.”
“She’s very interesting.” Xu Yaoguang paused and glanced at Qiao Sheng.
“Pei—” Qiao Sheng laughed. “I can tell. If you told her that you’re Beijing’s… would she still dangle you around?”
Young Master Xu was actually staying in Yun Cheng’s dormitory and eating in the cafeteria.
Xu Yaoguang ignored him.
Qiao Sheng didn’t understand. Why was Xu Yaoguang so calm and why did he help Qin Yu so much over a matter that even he could see through?
Did he like someone who could play the violin that much?
Qiao Sheng was a little angry.
What an addiction.
Qiao Sheng didn’t go for self-study at night. He felt too ashamed to see Qin Ran and just hid at home. He took out his mobile phone and stared at Qin Ran’s profile for a long time before finally sending a message—
[Qin Ran, I have been suppressed. I’m sorry! But I will definitely teach Wu Yan a lesson for you!]

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe next day.
Qin Yu had already told Wu Yan about the matter.
“Yu’er, thank you!” Wu Yan didn’t expect that Qin Yu would do so much to help her out. She grasped Qin Yu’s hand gratefully. “Young Master Xu really does cover for you!”
Wu Yan had always kept in mind the school’s unwritten rules. If there was someone who she could never mess with, it was Qin Yu.
Because Young Master Xu covered for her.
“We’re all friends, how could I have not helped?” Qin Yu smiled. “Class is starting, you should go back.”
Wu Yan looked at her gratefully.
She went back to her class.
She went back to her seat and took out her Chinese texts to read. She glanced at Qin Ran’s direction subtly.
Qin Ran was leaning against the wall and playing on her phone. Then, she saw the message that Qiao Sheng had sent three hours ago.
She narrowed her eyes slightly and turned to Qiao Sheng.
Qiao Sheng was lying on the table with his head buried in his arms.
After class ended, Wu Yan came over to Qin Ran and whispered, “Qin Ran, you didn’t expect it, did you? You don’t even need to open your mouth, did you think… Without Qiao Sheng covering for you, what are you even in this school?”
She had begged Qin Ran so hard yesterday, and Qin Ran had ignored her. Wu Yan hated her even more.
Qin Ran was stunned at Wu Yan’s words.
She understood what Qiao Sheng had meant.
Qin Ran took out her exercise book and propped her legs up. She then glanced at Wu Yan in a seemingly good mood. “Who told you that I needed to rely on someone?”
Wu Yan saw that she wasn’t angry and was even smiling.
She was involuntarily stunned.
This was different from how she had imagined.
At this time, Lin Siran, who was sitting with Xia Fei, suddenly pinched her phone and was stunned. Then, she stood up fiercely and shouted at Wu Yan, “Wu Yan, why did you throw away Ran Ran’s script?!”
