Tang Yanqi was certain that Sheng Jianan wouldn’t touch her. Her clothes might have been taken off by Mrs. Zhang, or even if Sheng Jianan did it, it didn’t matter; Tang Yanqi was shy, but she wasn’t bashful.
After a simple wash, she went downstairs. At this time, she knew that Sheng Jianan wouldn’t be at the villa.
Mrs. Zhang brought over breakfast, and just as Tang Yanqi took a couple of bites, her phone rang. When she answered, Qi Cheng’s voice came through. Usually playful, Qi Cheng’s tone was now somewhat heavy and uneasy: "Tangtang, where are you? You’d better come to the university once."
Tang Yanqi was a bit stunned by Qi Cheng’s sudden seriousness. After hanging up, she realized that she already had several missed calls on her phone, one from Sheng Jianan, the others from her roommates, and a landline number she didn’t recognize.
There were also two messages from Bai Bing. With just one glance, Tang Yanqi’s face changed completely.
She, who was always frugal, took a taxi directly from Lake Bay Villa to K University for the first time. Almost from the moment she entered the campus, she felt scrutinizing gazes from all directions as she walked towards the academy.
As soon as she entered the academy’s gate, Qi Cheng came over, grabbing Tang Yanqi’s arm with her hands: "Tangtang!"
Her face was filled with unhidden worry. From Bai Bing’s messages, Tang Yanqi had already guessed what had roughly happened. It was still the aftermath of yesterday’s incident. Tang Yanqi hadn’t yet said anything, yet the other side had already exposed the matter.
Tang Yanqi gave Qi Cheng a reassuring look and then went upstairs towards the dean’s office.
It was class time, so on the way, she inevitably encountered classmates. Everyone looked at her as if their eyes were blades. Professor Zuo had preemptively accused her, claiming that Tang Yanqi had done some disgraceful things to seduce him to graduate smoothly. This news had now spread throughout K University.
On one side was a famous professor and on the other just an ordinary student. The public naturally sided with the professor. Moreover, even those who might have known it wasn’t true wouldn’t dare to speak up.
Between a professor and a student, who can you afford to offend? Anyone could see that clearly.
Tang Yanqi ignored everyone. She believed deeply in her own innocence. There are many unfair things in this world, but you can’t really turn black into white.
In the dean’s office, besides some leaders and the professor, Li Jingjing was also there. The dean, with a grave expression, turned the laptop screen towards Tang Yanqi. It showed a segment of surveillance footage, precisely of Tang Yanqi coming out of the professor’s office, disheveled.
Tang Yanqi was stunned. She knew there was surveillance, so she originally thought they could prove her innocence, but she didn’t expect it to be used against her first.
"Tang, we hope you can explain what’s going on here?"
Tang Yanqi frowned and calmly recounted the facts. Before she even finished speaking, Professor Zuo jumped up, acting righteous, "Tang, food can be eaten carelessly, but words cannot be spoken carelessly. I took into account your reputation as a girl and wanted to settle this privately. I never expected you to turn things upside down in front of the academy leaders. I can sue you for defamation."
Tang Yanqi looked icily at this so-called professor. He was going to sue her? She hadn’t even settled the score with him yet, and he claimed he was going to sue her?

"How could a dignified professor like me do something so despicable? Besides, I had more than just you come to discuss the thesis that day. Why don’t you ask them if anything happened?"
