Jiangzhou University.
Early in the morning, the cafeteria was full of students rushing in to buy breakfast, quickly settling for a cup of soy milk and a hand-grabbed pancake. Those with a little more taste added an egg to their meal.
Today’s cafeteria was especially bustling, feeling like a noisy market, and animated discussions could be heard all around.
The theme naturally revolved around the attack last night that rocked Jiangzhou and even the whole nation.
Seeing the dark circles under a few of the students’ eyes, it was evident that they stayed up quite late last night discussing the matter.
“The Rans are finished this time. They’ve provoked public outrage and won’t survive for long.”
“How could The Rans fall so easily? Ran Tengxiao is no pushover, there must be some inside story…”
“Wonder how Ming Jing is doing? Did you guys see the online leaks saying she had a severe allergic reaction to some medication? Don’t know if it’s true though…”
“What? Allergic to medication? My goddess better be okay…”
“They say good people will be rewarded, and Ming Jing is such a kind soul who’s done so many good deeds. Why would something like this happen to her? It’s just too unfair.”
“Maybe she was attacked to pay off her father’s debts?”
The group of people immersed in discussion failed to notice a tall figure behind them. When they finally turned around and recognized the person standing in front of them, they were both surprised and delighted.
“It’s our school hunk… He’s so handsome in person…”
“He has such good temperament, even more so than celebrities…”
A group of girls became infatuated.
Jiang Jinchen’s eyebrows furrowed, his eyes cold and serious. He asked in a grave voice, “What were you just discussing? What happened to Ming Jing?”
Ever since Ming Jing’s speech at Jiangzhou University, everyone in the school knew that the school’s heartthrob was friends with her. Though there may be no pure friendship between the sexes, everyone was well aware of Jiang Jinchen’s intentions.
It wasn’t really jealousy, as everyone knew they couldn’t compete with Ming Jing.
They weren’t even worthy of being envious!
A girl stepped forward, looking astonished, and said, “You didn’t know? Last night after attending an event, Ming Jing was attacked at the night market…”
Before she finished speaking, the person had vanished.
A few girls looked at each other in confusion.
“Is the school hunk… in love with Ming Jing?”
The girl who spoke was rolled her eyes, as anyone with eyes could see it.
Charles Gao was yawning at the back, when suddenly he saw someone rushing past him like a whirlwind. Charles was stunned.
Gaining his senses, he hurriedly went after him. “Jinchen, aren’t you having breakfast?”
Why was he in such a hurry? What happened?
He, Jiang Jinchen, and a top student from the same department had formed a small group, preparing for the LeetCode Weekly Contest recently. They hadn’t had time to pay attention to anything else, focusing their energy on getting ready for the upcoming weekend’s contest.
As a result, Charles was completely unaware of any external events.
Jiang Jinchen was even more determined, devoting all his spare time to studying and learning programming algorithms. He even taught himself SQL Server, living his life methodically like the programs he wrote.
Already the top student in the Computer Science department, he seemed determined to widen the gap. This relentless attitude left his classmates struggling to keep up.
Jiang Jinchen didn’t answer Charles, instead taking out his phone to search for recent news while running.
In just five minutes, Jiang Jinchen had a clear understanding of the whole situation.
This included the latest announcement from the Jiangzhou Police Department.
Jiang Jinchen stared at the blue-background of the announcement, reading it word by word, eventually focusing on Xie Chun, the key figure mentioned in the report.
The report didn’t say that the case had been closed, but rather informed the public of the latest developments, urging people to believe in the police, not to believe or spread rumors, and to wait for the investigation’s results.
Jiang Jinchen went back and clicked on Xie Chun’s personal trending news. He was unfamiliar with this name, but netizens quickly listed Xie Chun’s life history, age, and educational background.
He was one of Ran Tengxiao’s men.
So did that mean the mastermind behind the attack on Ming Jing was Ran Tengxiao?
Jiang Jinchen’s first reaction was anger, but he soon realized something was off. If Ran Tengxiao were capable of such stupidity, he wouldn’t have made it this far, let alone revitalizing the Qinglong Association.
Two birds with one stone, a poisonous scheme.
Realizing something, Jiang Jinchen’s face instantly turned pale.
The morning sun climbed up the branches, casting down a bright light, but Jiang Jinchen felt cold—bone-chillingly cold…
Jiang Jinchen stopped a taxi at the entrance of the school. “To Renmin Hospital.”
Upon arriving at the hospital, he saw a large group of reporters squatting at the entrance, and his lips tightened.
