Chapter 2810: Seeking Them Out

“Oh really? Then let’s wait and see.” Zhang Xiche arrogantly lifted her head, kicked off on her bicycle, and was the first to enter the compound.

Seeing her so smug, He Yue’s anger simmered slowly. She gritted her teeth and rode her bike home.

As soon as she walked in and put down her school bag, ready to help in the kitchen, she heard An Hao’s voice coming from the crack of the bedroom door on the first floor, seemingly on the phone with someone.

“Are you kidding me? How can that be? Chenguang never mentioned this to me… Do you mean that the school wants to pursue responsibility? It’s not He Yue’s fault, is it?”

He Yue’s heart trembled slightly; it seemed someone called An Hao regarding the issue.

If she guessed correctly, mustn’t it be Professor Yan Ye?

Besides him, probably no one else would call Aunt An Hao.

The phone conversation inside continued, with An Hao’s voice showing no sign of emotion: “If this matter requires He Yue to take responsibility, just notify me. I am her guardian now, I’ll take full responsibility, okay?”

Why should Aunt An Hao take all the responsibility?

This is all Zhang Xiche’s trick!

She just wants to make her uncomfortable! Even if she is uncomfortable, why drag Aunt An Hao’s whole family into the mess?

He Yue didn’t finish listening to the conversation, turned around, and walked outside.

She didn’t believe there wasn’t a place for her to reason or someone to listen to her.

He Yue knew Zhang Xiche’s family also lived in this compound, so she asked around, looking for their home. When passing the compound’s basketball court, she saw Zhang Xiche holding a basketball, having changed into a loose jersey, heading to the court.

“Yo, He Yue, where are you going? Why didn’t you follow your little brother today? Aren’t you always like a little clingy follower, going ‘Brother, brother’ every day behind him!” Since she’d already fallen out with He Yue, she no longer bothered to hide or pretend in front of her.

“None of your business.” He Yue rolled her eyes at him.

Go ahead and laugh while you can because soon, you might not be able to.

“You think I care about managing you? Country bumpkin!” Zhang Xiche laughed, hugged the ball, and walked onto the field.

It didn’t take He Yue much effort to find Zhang Xiche’s home, as the officials’ residences in this compound were based on rank.

She stood outside the door and rang the bell. Soon, someone came to open it.

He Yue sized up the woman, noticing a resemblance between her and Zhang Xiche, and asked, “Are you Zhang Xiche’s mother?”

Wei Chunlan nodded, “And you are?”

“Auntie, I’m He Yue. I have something to discuss with you.” He Yue finished speaking, noticing Wei Chunlan’s puzzled expression, and added, “It’s about Zhang Xiche.”

“What’s up with Xiche?” Wei Chunlan asked in confusion, “Are you Xiche’s friend?”

“No. To be precise, I’m a victim!”

“Victim? What do you mean?” Wei Chunlan was baffled.

“Yes. Here’s what happened…” He Yue simply stood at the door and recounted everything Zhang Xiche did to her last night.

“Wait! Are you talking about my daughter? Why does she sound so unfamiliar in your story?”
