“Female student?” Ji Qingming mulled over these words. Then, he saw Yuan Xinran walk out with one hand in her pocket. He immediately said, “Yuan Xinran, come over here for a moment.”

When he saw Yuan Xinran’s impatient expression, his tough tone immediately turned timid.

Yuan Xinran let out an impatient grunt, then shrugged impatiently. “It’s not me.”

“Mr. Wilson said that a female student beat Louis until he couldn’t get out of bed. If it isn’t you, who else could it be?” Ji Qingming could only think of Yuan Xinran, who was the only female student who had such terrifying combat ability. Apart from her, he could not think of anyone else.

As Yuan Xinran stared at him, Ji Qingming’s voice became softer and softer. “If you did something you should apologize for, then you should apologize.”

“It’s not her,” Wilson suddenly said loudly. “Ji Qingming, don’t randomly pull an ordinary student in as a shield.”

“Huh?” Ji Qingming was confused. Who else could it be but Yuan Xinran?

At this moment, someone walked out leisurely. “It’s me.”

Sheng Yang was still emotionless, and she had Luo Mengmeng beside her.

Ji Qingming was stunned for a moment before shouting, “Don’t mess around!”

He still didn’t dare to speak too loudly. He was afraid of Yuan Xinran, but he was also afraid of Sheng Yang. The thesis had given him a lot of praise. If he wanted to speed up his progress, he would have to rely on her in the future.

“Yes, it’s her.” Wilson saw that Ji Qingming was defending Sheng Yang and became even more agitated. “I saw the surveillance footage. It’s this girl.”

Sheng Yang smiled. It was much easier with the surveillance footage.

However, when they reached the surveillance room, they could only see Sheng Yang whipping Louis. Even though the sound was so soft, it was obvious that it had been tragic. Everyone present was so frightened that they instinctively protected their bodies.

Ji Qingming felt like he had been slapped in the face. He looked at Sheng Yang with lingering fear. He couldn’t tell that she was better at fighting than Yuan Xinran. At the same time, he was glad… that he hadn’t provoked her too much.

“See that? That’s the truth!” Wilson said loudly.

Luo Mengmeng stood up and said, “But that foreign student saw me passing by alone and had evil intentions. He wanted to bully me!”

Wilson rewound the surveillance footage. From the angle, he could only see Luo Mengmeng standing in front of Louis. The view was blocked, so they could not see what was going on at all. Wilson snorted and said, “According to Louis, he only wanted to ask you for directions, but you didn’t seem to understand what he said. You kept shouting and shouting…”

“Nonsense! My English score for the college entrance examination is so high. How could I not understand what he said?” Faced with such blatant lies, Luo Mengmeng was so anxious that her eyes turned red. Her mind was spinning, wondering if there was anyone else who could help her prove this.

Unfortunately, Yangyang was the only one who heard her cries for help. In that case, they would say that Sheng Yang was in cahoots with her to frame that foreign male student.

At that time, not only would she not be able to clear her name but she would also drag Yangyang down with her.

“Heh… What’s the use of getting high marks for the college entrance examination?” Wilson’s lips curled up. “There were students who got high marks in China and came to the States to study but they stuttered even when working in a convenience store. Scoring high in exams and verbal proficiency are two different things. It’s just like how there are quite a number of people in China who’ve gotten high marks in the past few years, but the number of people in China who’ve gotten a Nobel Prize in science and technology can be counted on one hand.”
