Chapter 338: Chapter 338: It wasn’t me... I didn’t...

Qin Nanyu’s expression darkened, just as he was about to say something, Lei Yunjia suddenly spoke up, "There’s news about Wang Xi, he’s in the study room of the comprehensive teaching building!"

Everyone headed towards the comprehensive teaching building in unison.

Ji Weitian still remembered that Qin Nanyu had said he needed to attend a meeting, and she wanted to tell him he could leave first if he was in a rush, but before she could speak, Qin Nanyu met her gaze, naturally took her hand, and led her forward.

This time, he held her hand particularly tightly, as if he was still resenting how she had pulled away from him earlier.

By the time they reached the study room, they found Wang Xi surrounded by a crowd.

The photos displayed by the photography club had been seen by everyone.

The incident with Qian Min had caused a very adverse effect.

Now, with a similar incident occurring, everyone was curious about what exactly the relationship between Wang Xi and Qian Min was and whether the lab data leak was related to him.

Initially, it might have just been curious inquiries.

But Wang Xi was not good with words, and he tended to get so nervous in crowded places that he couldn’t speak.

His silence, in everyone’s eyes, seemed like an admission.

Gradually, the curious voices around him turned into doubts... and later to condemnation...

Wang Xi’s fair face turned bright red with frustration, wanting to explain something but was overwhelmed by the surrounding voices and had no chance to catch his breath.

Eventually, he sat in his own seat, face pale, holding his head and curling up.

"It wasn’t me... I didn’t..."

His feeble voice was drowned out by the crowd.

Louder than his voice were the merciless scoffs and insults.

Everyone around him was venting their emotions with sharp words.

"Wang Xi!" Someone shouted.

Wang Xi looked up in surprise and saw Lei Yunjia outside the crowd, a glimmer of hope sparking in his eyes, which dimmed as he thought of something.

Lei Yunjia, known for his explosive temper, saw Wang Xi surrounded and pushed through the crowd without another thought.

"This is a study room, what’s with all the noise? Right now it’s just a few photos, what do they prove?"

Lei Yunjia stood in front of Wang Xi, made sure he was alright, then reached out to pull him up.

Wang Xi hesitated and moved back a bit, but hearing Lei Yunjia say "We all believe in you," he suddenly paused, and then instinctively followed Lei Yunjia, and they both left the study room together.

Outside, upon seeing the other lab members, Wang Xi raised his hand to wipe his eyes.

No one spoke. Liu Pan was the first to move forward and gave him a hug.

Others followed suit, one after another, all huddling together.

The friendship among boys can sometimes be strange—it doesn’t require words, all the emotions are conveyed in a hug.

Just a second ago, Wang Xi, who was still doubting if he was deluding himself, now cried like a child.

Qin Nanyu didn’t move forward, nor did he allow Ji Weitian to.

After ensuring Wang Xi was alright, he pulled her to go downstairs first.

Initially worried that she wouldn’t want to leave, he found her compliant like a rabbit, following him all the way to the parking lot.

"I’ll take you home first," Qin Nanyu said as he opened the car door.

Ji Weitian didn’t get in the car, as if she remembered something, pursed her lips, "I haven’t finished sorting things in the data room, I’ll go back to the lab first, and I’ll go home by myself later."

Saying that, she turned her head and quickly ran off.

Out of breath, she ran back to the lab and restarted her computer.
