"Why?" Lin Qingyu opened her eyes wide, not quite understanding.

"Some people may not have money, but we can't offend them easily." Xie Qingliu said cheerfully, "Li Tiange's grandmother is a professor at Qingwu University, and his parents have also worked there for more than ten years. Do you understand?"

After blinking, Lin Qingyu finally understood. If it was just an ordinary family, or a rich person, Xie Qingliu might not have been so roundabout and would have just gone straight up and confronted him.

But when it comes to issues involving literati, things become less simple, especially for university teachers like this, who knows what kind of students they have.

The girl was just thinking about it when she saw Xie Qingliu had stood up, straightened his clothes, and walked towards Li Tiange in the distance at a leisurely pace.

The originally lively playground began to become quiet with Xie Qingliu's actions. Lin Qingyu hurriedly followed. The girl found that these students' misunderstanding of Qingliu was really a bit outrageous. They actually retreated to both sides as if they saw the god of plague.

Xie Qingliu slowly walked to Li Tiange who was stretching his legs. There were several girls standing next to him. These girls stared at Xie Qingliu with vigilance, as if to say, "If you dare to bully Li Tiange, we will fight you to the death."

Pursing his lips, Xie Qingliu looked at Li Tiange who was still warming up leisurely. The other party seemed to have not seen him and was stretching his legs.

"Classmate Li Tiange, do you have time to chat with me?" Xie Qingliu asked with a smile, squatting down.

"Xie Qingliu, I'm not familiar with you, am I?" Li Tiange stopped and said with a bright smile on his handsome face: "Of course, if Xie Qingliu wants to make friends with me, I'd be happy to do so."

"Really?" Xie Qingliu said with a sigh, "If I remember correctly, you and Mei Mei are in the same class?"

Hearing Mei Mei's name, Li Tiange's smile froze, and then he nodded and said, "Yes, I wonder what's the matter with classmate Xie Qingliu?"

"Mei Mei is very beautiful, what do you think?" Xie Qingliu suddenly said for no reason.

"Although classmate Mei Mei doesn't have a very good reputation, her grades and looks are very good. I wonder what classmate Xie Qingliu wants to express?" Li Tiange asked with a puzzled expression.

"Nothing, just a casual chat."

Xie Qingliu laughed, stood up and stretched his body, then said meaningfully as if he remembered something: "Oh, right! Mei Mei, she won't like other boys, do you know why?"

"Who Mei Mei likes has nothing to do with me. Xie Qingliu, did you misunderstand something?" Li Tiange's expression became even more confused.

"Tsk, tsk."

Xie Qingliu couldn't help but admire her. As expected of someone from an intellectual family, her acting was first-rate, with absolutely no flaws to be found.

Unfortunately, he is familiar with the plot. The supporting character Li Tiange has a crush on Mei Mei, and likes her to a certain extent. This is partly why he can be influenced by the male protagonist.

"Qingyu, let's go!" Xie Qingliu glanced at Li Tiange. This kind of double-faced fellow could only be made to surrender by showing him evidence.

"Yeah." Lin Qingyu narrowed her eyes and stared at Li Tiange for a while, then turned around and trotted to catch up with Xie Qingliu.

Li Tiange looked deeply at Xie Qingliu's back and continued to stretch his legs without any expression. Several girls next to him tried to comfort him in various ways. He thanked them with a smile, but his eyes became extremely angry after he lowered his head.

"You are just a loser with a silver spoon in his mouth, and you dare to test me, Mei Mei... You stupid guy, you actually like this kind of person. Why do you like this kind of useless trash?"

Li Tiange's heart felt like it was burning with fire. He couldn't understand why such an excellent and clean girl would fall for a scum like Xie Qingliu.

pS: Haha!!!!

Chapter 37 Good Friends

In the afternoon, Xie Qingliu slowly came to the school gate, with Lin Qingyu's eyes wandering around behind him.

At this time, half an hour had passed since school was over. The two sat in the classroom until everyone left before coming out. Lin Qingyu didn't know what Xie Qingliu was doing, but just followed him and it was done.

"Brother Qingliu, this way."

There was a shout from a distance, Lin Qingyu moved her eyes over, then frowned slightly. It was the boy from No. 2 Middle School who was dressed very seductively. What was his name? The girl thought for a while and it seemed to be Li Bing.

Xie Qingliu walked forward, glanced at the other person, and then his eyes fell on the girl next to him. The other person had medium-length hair and was dressed very simply. She was somewhat similar to Lin Qingyu before, giving people a very introverted and gloomy feeling.

The two of them standing together are quite impactful. The guy doesn't look like a serious person, while the girl looks like an honest child. I don't know how the two of them got together.

"Brother Qingliu, her name is Qiu Rui." Li Bing said flatteringly, "She is the witness of what happened back then."

"Really?" Xie Qingliu said slowly, "Let's go to the coffee shop in front to talk."

"Uh-huh."

Li Bing nodded his head quickly when he heard that, took the girl's hand and followed Xie Qingliu, whispering in his ear from time to time.

Lin Qingyu glanced at the boy and followed Xie Qingliu silently, but she would intentionally or unintentionally put herself between the two of them, as if she was afraid that the boy would get too close to Xie Qingliu.

Ten minutes later, the four of them sat down in a corner of the coffee shop. The girl seemed to be in such a place for the first time and looked very nervous, but Li Bing looked relaxed.

"Student Qiu Rui, don't be nervous." Xie Qingliu tapped his fingers slowly on the glass table and said gently, "Just tell me what you know."

"I...no one will believe me if I tell them." Qiu Rui raised his head, his eyes dodging, his face full of timidity.

"It's okay, just think of it as chatting with friends and venting some emotions." Xie Qingliu's smile became more friendly.

The girl was stunned, a trace of confusion and hatred appeared on her face, and then turned into fear.

Xie Qingliu was stunned by this series of changes. What was going on?

"Qiu Rui, just say it. This is Brother Qingliu." Li Bing encouraged him, "Everyone in Jiangbei District knows his reputation. Don't worry, just say it. No one will dare to cause trouble for you."

Xie Qingliu said nothing. His reputation in certain places was indeed very useful, but he couldn't say that himself.

"Yeah." Qiu Rui seemed to trust the boy very much. He raised his head and whispered, "When I was in the second grade of junior high school, my childhood friend was in the same class with Li Tiange."

Xie Qingliu listened quietly. The other party was not very good at organizing her words and said a lot of irrelevant things, such as her childhood friend was very pretty and kind. After describing a long story about her relationship with her childhood friend, the girl finally got the topic back on track.

"I went home with him that day, and he suddenly told me that he wanted to die." Tears began to accumulate in the girl's eyes, and she choked up as she said, "He obviously wanted to be admitted to Qingwu University, and he was planning to travel around the world and see the scenery outside..."

"So what exactly happened?" Xie Qingliu asked with a frown.

"An exam." Qiu Rui clenched his fists, his face twisted with sobs, and even his tone became heavy as he spoke: "He beat Li Tiange in the midterm exam, and then he was framed for cheating. A note was found in his schoolbag, and he was punished."

"That's all, it shouldn't be like this, right?" Xie Qingliu asked in confusion.

Qiu Rui took a breath, wiped his face and said, "Well, this was just the fuse. After that, I don't know why the class started to say that his previous grades were all due to plagiarism. Then everyone ignored him, and dead bugs and mice appeared inexplicably in his drawer. Until I found marks of being beaten on his body."

Xie Qingliu's eyes twitched. Why did this plot sound like a movie? But thinking about the lazy game production, it was really possible that it might be a copy of the movie content.

"Going to school every day was a torture for him. Later..." Qiu Rui said weakly, "He was blocked by several male classmates on his way home. After being bullied, he fainted due to too much pressure. When he woke up, he found himself..."

"What's wrong?" Xie Qingliu twitched the corner of his mouth. It can't be that tragic, right?

"He found himself in a hotel, with a middle-aged woman smoking next to him." Qiu Rui said in a trembling voice, "The woman took photos and threatened him not to tell anyone. That was the reason he committed suicide."

Xie Qingliu was speechless. It was indeed tragic, but also a bit bloody. But when he thought about it carefully, the reality was even more magical than this. When he was still a social animal, he saw a fourteen-year-old girl chatting with people through WeChat and selling photos of her legs. In the end, she was raped and even got pregnant!

The ending is similar to this one. The man threatened the girl with the photo, and the incident was finally exposed after she committed suicide.

"So what does this matter have to do with Li Tiange?" Xie Qingliu asked after taking a breath.

"Student Xie Qingliu, these are all written in his diary." Qiu Rui said with fear and hatred in his eyes: "I don't believe he would cheat, so I followed Li Tiange for a while after he committed suicide."

“It has that flavor.”

Xie Qingliu felt happy in his heart, it seemed that the girl had deep feelings for the boy.

"Li Tiange knows that middle-aged woman." Qiu Rui said with infinite resentment in his voice: "They know each other, do you know? They actually know each other, I saw them sitting together for dinner, and then I was threatened."

"Being threatened?" Xie Qingliu asked in surprise.

"The next day, a thug in my class came to me and threatened me that if I said anything wrong, I would be like him and never see the sun again in my life." Qiu Rui said in tears, "I was not afraid. I took the photos to the police and wanted to report it, but I was stopped before I even got to the police station."

"Li Tiange actually has such a background?" Lin Qingyu asked doubtfully after being silent for a long time.

"I don't know." Qiu Rui sighed, with a look of reluctance on his face, but more of a compromise: "After that, I stayed in the hospital for a month. The next day, my parents' breakfast noodle shop was reported for hygiene and safety issues and closed for rectification. Li Tiange was like a bottomless abyss. I didn't dare to think about revenge for him anymore. I didn't dare."

"Brother Qingliu, this is the news from that year. The middle-aged woman was arrested, and it seems that the sentence was not heavy." Li Bing beside him smiled awkwardly, took out his mobile phone and put it on the table, saying: "In fact, the fact that Li Tiange found me means that he must know some people like us. After all, you know it."

"Indeed." Xie Qingliu rubbed his fingers. This matter was quite harsh if taken seriously. It was tantamount to overturning a verdict.

The defendant in the news was only imprisoned for three years, and it was only charged with indecent assault, which means that the life had basically nothing to do with her. It's a bit outrageous.

pS: I was stunned by the recent news. It is true that reality is more magical than fiction. . .

Chapter 38 Mei Mei's Parents

At the entrance of the community, Xie Qingliu walked with a thoughtful look on his face. Lin Qingyu stood more than ten meters away and watched him walk in before turning around and leaving.

"Qingliu, where did you and Qingyu go?"

Mei Mei suddenly appeared and scared Xie Qingliu who was thinking about something. He looked at her in surprise. This girl was wearing a school uniform and carrying a schoolbag. He didn't know where she was hiding. It was really scary for her to suddenly jump out like this.

"You didn't go home?" Xie Qingliu asked puzzledly.

"I don't trust you."

Mei Mei glanced at Lin Qingyu's back in the distance and felt a little upset for some reason. Ever since Xie Qingliu met this girl, the two of them had been sticking together all day long, which was very wrong.

"What's there to worry about? Qingyu alone can beat three of you." Xie Qingliu said in silence.

Mei Mei was choked and speechless. During the filming at Bailu Lake, she had witnessed Lin Qingyu's extraordinary strength. The other party had strength that was disproportionate to her body. If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, it would be hard to believe that a person over 1.6 meters tall could have such strength.

Seeing Mei Mei seemed a little disappointed, Xie Qingliu said in silence: "What? Are you still jealous?"

"Yes... a little bit." Mei Mei turned her head away with an unnatural expression, looking very embarrassed.

Shocked, Xie Qingliu stared at the girl in a daze. What he said to mock Li Tiange was nonsense. According to the original plot, Mei Mei had always remained true to herself despite the blessing of the male god halo of the No. 1 male lead, until finally she was completely broken-hearted by Xie Qingliu, the No. 2 male lead. Or it could be said that because the No. 2 male lead gave too many assists, the No. 1 male lead won her heart.

So why are you jealous? We are just childhood friends, what are you thinking?

Xie Qingliu looked at the girl with a strange expression and asked, "Something's wrong with you."

"You are the one who is wrong." Mei Mei said unhappily, "You are my only friend and you ignore me. How can I not have some thoughts?"

"When did I ignore you? You're such a weird person." Xie Qingliu was amused by what he said: "Are you ignoring my calls or am I avoiding you on purpose? It's as if I'm isolating you."

"Well...anyway, you are different from before." After expressing her thoughts during this period of time, Mei Mei's smile became natural.

"It's whatever you say."

Xie Qingliu waved his hand and complained.

Mei Mei pursed her lips and smiled. If she had said this in the past, Xie Qingliu would definitely question her with concern, asking whether she had become better or worse. Now that he was so nonchalant, it made her feel very comfortable. She didn't have to worry about saying the wrong thing, nor did she have to be afraid of making the other person unhappy.

"Qingliu, you skipped class again today, right?" Mei Mei asked, changing the subject.

"If I don't skip classes, will I be worthy of my family background?" Xie Qingliu asked seriously.

Mei Mei was silent. She was so shocked by this twisted logic that she didn't know how to respond.

"I have things to do and no time to waste in the classroom, do you understand?" Xie Qingliu laughed. Mei Mei's silly expression was really funny.

"Ok."

Mei Mei sighed and didn't worry about it. According to Xie Qingliu's personality, he would be distracted even if he stayed in the classroom. What's more, he was more secure than before because Lin Qingyu was by his side and he didn't have to worry about any accidents.

"By the way, I have something I want to visit my uncle and aunt about." Xie Qingliu suddenly said, "Serious business."

"Well, tell me about it." Mei Mei nodded and replied.

"A friend of mine was wrongly convicted." Xie Qingliu directly pulled out the news and said, "Three years ago, this woman raped my friend's childhood friend, but she was only convicted of indecency, and the matter was left unresolved."

Mei Mei frowned and read the news word by word. A 38-year-old woman named Hu molested a junior high school boy named Bai...

"Qingliu, are you sure there is something behind this matter?" Mei Mei asked with an extremely serious expression.

"Whether there is one or not, we'll know if we check it out." Xie Qingliu said indifferently, "Why, are you afraid that I'll use this opportunity to cause trouble?"

"No..." Mei Mei panicked when she heard it: "I don't disbelieve you, I just... just..."

"Miss Mei Mei, I know exactly who I am. There's no need to explain too much." Xie Qingliu said, smiling and patting the girl's shoulder.

This sounded insignificant, but Mei Mei suddenly felt that she was very far away from Xie Qingliu, as if there was an invisible wall between them. This was the first time she had this feeling.

The girl nodded silently, returned the phone to Xie Qingliu, and said nothing more.

Seeing this, Xie Qingliu did not explain. Preconceived impressions are difficult to change in a short period of time, so it is better to let the other party think about it for themselves.

Xie Qingliu did not go home today, but followed Mei Mei to her villa. The girl was affected by what he had just said and looked a little uncomfortable, but she still opened the door and went in obediently.

"Meizi, why are you so late today?"

As soon as he entered the room, he heard a greeting with a local Jiangbei accent. Xie Qinglu was stunned. From his memory, Mei Mei's father seemed to be from the countryside and her mother was a local. It seemed that the two came together because of a case.

However, Xie Qingliu's memories were mostly about eating, drinking and having fun, and he didn't pay much attention to interpersonal relationships. As a time traveler, he had to think hard every time he wanted to obtain information.

"Qingliu is here, Dad." Mei Mei said quickly.

"Hey, Qingliu is coming."

A man holding a book came over, hugged Xie Qingliu warmly and said: "I asked you to come and play but you refused. Now you are finally here today. Come and show your uncle. You are getting more and more beautiful..."
