Chapter 2694: Im Waiting for You to Hang up First

Ning Shu cleared her throat. Ahem! I cant. I have to take care of my mother for now. Take good care of yourself, Cheng Fei.

Cheng Fei uttered a pitiful oh, then asked some more general questions of concern.

Afterward, though, he didnt hang up the phone. Ning Shu could still hear his breath over the phone.

Why arent you hanging up?

Im waiting for you to hang up first.

Ning Shu instantly slammed the end call b.u.t.ton.

Beauty traps didnt work on her!

If Cheng Fei did the things hed done but was ugly, Ai Yuns parents would be the ones begging her to get a divorce.

A good-looking persons abnormal behavior wasnt as such. Instead, they invited sympathy and understanding from other people.

Only ugly weirdos would be insulted as such.

People were more tolerant of good-looking people.

That was the beauty privilege.

Alas, beauty was by nature deceitful.

Ning Shu went out of the bedroom to cook. Recently, she had been cooking all of her familys meals.

The kidnapping incident had badly frightened Mother Ai and made her feel somewhat weak nowadays.

Professor Ai didnt want Mother Ai to work too hard, so Ning Shu now took care of the laundry and the cooking.

Even if the taste of Ning Shus cooking wasnt very good, what had happened recently had made them lose their appet.i.te. Even if what she cooked was delicious, Ai Yuns parents wouldnt be able to taste it.

Professor Ai came back home with a pale face and an ugly expression on his face.

Ning Shu quickly poured him a gla.s.s of water and asked, What happened, Dad?

Professor Ai took a sip of the water, then sighed and said, Theyve found the person who instigated Li Qiang to kidnap your mother.

So quickly? Who is it?

Judging from Professor Ais expression, the person didnt seem to be Cheng Fei.

Another student in my cla.s.s. His name is Li Chen. He has admitted to stealing Tian Hais account.

Ning Shu:

Ning Shus face betrayed her confusion. Are you sure?

Professor Ai nodded. The police said that Li Chen buckled under the pressure from the school and the police, so he went to the police station and surrendered himself.

What about the IP address of the coffee shop? Ning Shu really couldnt figure it out.

Li Chen admitted to going to that coffee shop. They also checked the CCTVs; he had indeed been there.

Ning Shu: Excuse me!?

So Cheng Fei really had nothing to do with this?

Ai Yun, do you think I am a failure? Two students loathed me enough to do this. I feel very tired. I want to resign.

Ning Shu immediately rea.s.sured him. We havent seen the end of this yet, Dad. Besides, youre going to retire soon anyway. If you resign now, you wont even get your pension. Dad, you need to persevere.

Its fine as long as we have a clear conscience. Ning Shu patted Professor Ais shoulder.

This is a stain on my life. Li Chen and Li Qiangs futures are also ruined. Professor Ai was still dedicated as their teacher; he still felt responsible for his students.

However, the recent events had also left a bad taste in Professor Ais mouth.

These two couldnt even recognize the good hed done for them, so why must he feel responsible for them? Instead of grat.i.tude, what he received in return for his dedication was complaints and a kidnapping.

He also didnt know how the university would be punis.h.i.+ng him.

Ning Shu looked at the downtrodden Professor Ai and comforted him. Dad, everything will be fine.

Professor Ai sighed. Ning Shu couldnt do anything, though. She couldnt help Professor Ai with this kind of thing.

Ning Shu took her bag and prepared to go out.

Where are you going? Are you going to see Cheng Fei? Professor Ai asked.

I have something I need to do. Food is in the pot.
