Chapter 175: Chapter 175: Who Made the First Move

Jia Qing exhaled a sigh of relief.

"Dr. Ye, could you help me tie up my hair? It must be very messy and unattractive, right?"

"Sure." Ye Yan’s expression unconsciously softened as she picked up a comb and began combing Jia Qing’s hair.

Jia Qing had a head of long black hair, but lifting those tresses revealed her scalp—red, swollen, and bruised from being frequently pulled.

Long hair, something girls usually cherish, had become a weapon others used to harm them.

Ye Yan was gentle and careful in her movements, fearful of hurting her.

After tying the hair, Jia Qing pointed to a desk nearby, "Dr. Ye, use that hairpin, please. It’s from my mother."

Ye Yan picked up a black hairpin with an ancient design, worn from many years of use.

She secured Jia Qing’s hair, leaving the young girl’s face looking delicate and soft, still unmistakably beautiful despite wearing a hospital gown.

However, the bruises marring her body detracted from her beauty, creating a distressing sight.

"Dr. Ye, ever since I married Mr. Li, I’ve felt as though I’m constantly under scorching sunlight, with no secrets, no escape. But I still harbor some thoughts, thoughts that I can only tuck into those small shadows," Jia Qing said, her gaze drifting out the window, her eyes unfocused and distant. "I dare not die, for if I did, he would surely kill my mother. It’s astonishing that in this vast world, there isn’t an exit that belongs to me."

Ye Yan looked at her frail figure, which remained cold even under the sunlight.

Her phone rang from her pocket, and after instructing Jia Qing briefly, she headed to the hallway.

It was Teacher Qin, Ye Zhun’s homeroom teacher, calling.

Teacher Qin seldom contacted her, for Ye Zhun was a student who excelled in academics and life discipline, someone who only made one envious.

"Dr. Ye, could you come to the school? Ye Zhun was involved in a fight."

Ye Zhun, in a fight?

Aside from once standing up for his classmates, Ye Zhun had never fought anyone before. Judging by Teacher Qin’s tone, it seemed serious.

Ye Yan thought about Ye Zhun’s physical condition and felt a surge of anxiety.

He was still in the recovery stage, and any injury now could have unimaginable consequences.

She hurried to Yongyuan and saw Ye Zhun in the principal’s office.

Along with Ye Zhun, there were Fu Xingrui and another boy.

Among the three, the other boy was the most injured, his face swollen and bruised, moaning softly as he half-lay on the sofa.

Fu Xingrui was also injured; his forehead was scratched, and there were scrapes on the back of his hand.

Compared to them, Ye Zhun looked unscathed except for a ripped collar on his uniform.

"Dr. Ye." When Teacher Qin saw her enter, she approached, glanced at the boy lying on the sofa, and whispered, "His parents haven’t arrived yet. When they do, please make sure to apologize properly."

"Teacher Qin, did Ye Zhun start the fight?"

"No."

"Then why should we apologize?"

Teacher Qin hesitated, then took Ye Yan by the hand and led her into the hallway.

"Dr. Ye, regardless of who’s right or wrong, Peng Yu’s parents are not to be trifled with. I’ve heard he’s a mob boss, very influential," Teacher Qin spoke with a heavy heart. "We come from decent families. Making enemies with such people has nothing but disadvantages. I’m concerned about it affecting Ye Zhun’s future life and education."

"Thank you for your consideration, Teacher Qin. However, I need to talk to Ye Zhun about it."

Ye Zhun spotted Ye Yan entering and exchanged a look with Fu Xingrui.

"Sister."

"Did you start the fight?" Ye Yan asked, "Are you hurt?"

"I started it, but I’m not hurt," Ye Zhun said, "Fu Xingrui is hurt."

Ye Yan looked at Fu Xingrui, whose young face was bruised and somewhat disheveled.

"Sister, I started it first, don’t blame Ye Zhun," Fu Xingrui puffed out his chest, "I was the one who fought, it has nothing to do with Ye Zhun."

Ye Zhun glared at him, "Don’t interrupt."

He was a model student, the hope of the entire school, and everyone including the principal held him in high regard.

Even if he got into a fight, the school wouldn’t really punish him, but it was different for Fu Xingrui, who had transferred in and had mediocre grades. If the school pursued it, he could very likely be expelled.

Fu Xingrui had clearly agreed earlier, why did he change his mind at the last minute?

It made him furious.

"It was both of you fighting," Peng Yu, swollen-eyed and lying on the couch, still glared fiercely at them, "Just wait till my dad gets here, you’ll see."

"Why did you guys fight?" Ye Yan saw that both wanted to take the blame themselves.

Fu Xingrui glanced at Ye Zhun, "There’s a girl, the school beauty of our senior year, she gave Ye Zhun a cup of milk tea."

"Sun Xiaoxi is my girlfriend," Peng Yu yelled loudly, "You seduced my girlfriend, you bastard."

"I didn’t," Ye Zhun’s face flushed red, "I didn’t ask for her milk tea, I’m not even close to her, stop slandering me."

Fu Xingrui patted his shoulder, "Don’t waste words with him, he’s incompetent, can’t keep his own girlfriend, so he blames others and starts a fight, he deserves a beating."

By now, Ye Yan had also figured out the full story.

This Peng Yu guy had some connection with Sun Xiaoxi, it was unclear if they were actually dating.

Sun Xiaoxi’s act of giving Ye Zhun milk tea was witnessed by Peng Yu, who then confronted Ye Zhun and ended up being beaten by Fu Xingrui.

Peng Yu didn’t stand a chance against Fu Xingrui, it was one-sided, and the situation escalated, leading to parents being called for all parties involved.

Teacher Qin spoke helplessly, "Kids these days really are unmanageable. Fu Xingrui, where are your parents, why haven’t they arrived yet?"

"Teacher, Fu Xingrui’s family isn’t in Ao City," Ye Zhun quickly explained on his behalf, "They can’t make it."

Fu Xingrui also nodded repeatedly, "Sister Ye is like my guardian, whatever she says, I’ll listen."

"Dr. Ye, can you represent Fu Xingrui’s parents?" Teacher Qin was somewhat troubled, "When Peng Yu’s parents arrive, they might come down hard."

Dr. Ye was alone and a frail girl, she would surely be at a disadvantage against Peng Yu’s parents.

"She can," Fu Xingrui urgently winked at Ye Yan, his face full of pleading.

He couldn’t dare tell Fu Xingzhou about this.

He was here to protect Ye Zhun, not to cause trouble, and now it had escalated to involve the parents, and he was bound to be scolded.

"I can," Ye Yan couldn’t bear to see Fu Xingrui troubled, "I will negotiate with the other parents."

This matter was definitely Fu Xingrui’s fault since he was the one who started the fight.

If the other party sought compensation, she would cooperate actively.

But Fu Xingrui had acted out of concern for Ye Zhun, Ye Yan was grateful to him and would strive to accept all conditions from the other party.

As long as they don’t pursue it further and let Fu Xingrui stay at Yongyuan.
