“Feiyu, what you need to focus on now is keeping Su Yifan loyal to you. Make him willingly work for you.”

“Don’t worry, Mom. I know exactly how to handle this.”

“Mom, I probed Su Yifan today. He mentioned that I saved him when we were children and even fell into the water while doing so. What’s that all about? I don’t remember ever saving him. I’ve never even met him when we were kids!”

“Feiyu, listen to me. Don’t deny it, but don’t confirm it either. Just let it be. The person who saved him was Rong Qi, not you. He mistook you for her. But it’s precisely because of this misunderstanding that he’s willingly offering to help you. So just let him keep believing that. If he ever asks, just say you can’t remember.”

“Okay, fine.”

Upon hearing that, Su Yifan couldn’t contain his emotions any longer. He whipped his head around, his eyes red, glaring at Rong Qi, who sat in a chair, her eyebrows furrowed. A whirlwind of emotions stormed through his heart.

‘The person who saved me was Rong Qi, not Rong Feiyu! I had misunderstood, I had mistaken the ident.i.ty, and I had wronged the one person I truly wanted to protect!’ Su Yifan thought.

The voices on the phone continued to play, echoing Su Yifan’s regret and agony.

Rong Feiyu, panicking, fumbled for her phone. She tried to turn it off but couldn’t.

“What’s happening? What’s happening? Ah!”

In a breakdown, Rong Feiyu hurled her phone out of the window and sank to the floor, sobbing uncontrollably. Yet, every word from the phone had been clearly heard by everyone present, as well as those watching the live stream.

Right and wrong were now clear as day.

Su Yifan’s face turned ashen. The person he had held in his heart was exploiting him all along.

“Heh…” Su Yifan let out a sarcastic laugh.

Frantic, Rong Feiyu crawled over and clutched at his shirt. “Yifan, listen to me. This isn’t true. They’re framing me. It’s all Rong Qi! She’s always been against me. Yifan, please hear me out…”

Su Yifan sneered and pushed her away. “I’ll ask you just one thing. Who really saved me when we were children?”

His last word was practically ground out between clenched teeth.

“It was me. Really, it was me. Do you know why I’m so afraid of the cold? It’s because after saving you, I was pushed into the pond by those older kids!” Rong Feiyu defended herself, tears streaming down her face.

“Fine, you say you saved me. So let me ask you, before that, you gave me something. What was it? Tell me, and I’ll believe you.”

“I…I…” Rong Feiyu opened her mouth but couldn’t speak. Her mind raced but drew a blank. “I don’t remember.”

“Heh, is it that you don’t remember, or you never knew to begin with?” Su Yifan’s voice turned icy cold.

His thoughts were in chaos, his gaze involuntarily seeking the aloof and proud figure in the room.

‘That was the person I should have protected!’ Su Yifan thought.

Summoning up courage, Su Yifan proclaimed, “Fine, I admit it. I’m withdrawing from the university. I stole the exam. But the person who instigated me was not Rong Qi. It was her—Rong Feiyu!”

Su Yifan pointed resolutely at Rong Feiyu, who sat crumpled and crying on the floor.

The room was stunned into silence. What had started as an investigation into cheating had spiraled out of control.

Tang Lin looked at Rong Feiyu in utter disbelief. Decades of a teaching career had built his reputation, and now it was shattered. He wished he could just disappear into the ground.

“I cannot allow a person of such vile character to remain in my cla.s.s. I propose that Rong Feiyu be expelled!” Tang Lin suggested..
