In the room:

Yin Che couldn't fall back asleep right after waking up, he just lay in bed in a daze.

The words that Yin Ze had said before leaving just now were not unreasonable. All these years, he really hadn't confided in him, so being hated was reasonable.

But, just in case I'm not cured......it's better to lose a gege he hates than to lose a gege he likes.

Later on they could have a good chat, right now he still hadn't calmed down yet.

And he wanted to see a certain someone instead.

Yin Che turned over, about to check the time on his phone, but suddenly discovered that there was a school uniform jacket on the bed.

It was crumpled, having been tossed at the corner of the bed by its owner.

Jiang Yao didn't always make his bed, so every week, his dorm score was the lowest in the whole class. Lao Wu had lectured him several times, but he still did it.

Yin Che stared at the jacket.

After making sure that there were no footsteps in the hallway outside, he grabbed the jacket, buried his face in it, and took a deep breath.

Except for the faint smell of laundry soap, there wasn't a hint of any other scent.

After more than a month of treatment, there weren't any results at all.

-

At that moment, footsteps came from outside the door.

Yin Che immediately tucked the jacket back into the corner.

Jiang Yao opened the door and walked in, "You woke up? You scared me to death just now, you really don't know how to dodge."

Yin Che got off the bed. "I'm fine. How were things on your end? My di said you called the police."

"Mhm, they already had a few fights on their record, so they're repeat offenders. This time they'll be detained for a while, so there's no need to worry about them coming to pick a fight for the time being."

Jiang Yao pulled down his zipper, about to take off his jacket, but then suddenly grimaced, pressing his hand against his waist.

"What's wrong?" Yin Che asked, stepping forward.

"When I caught you earlier, those guys sneak attacked me from behind. I'm just a little sore."

"Let me take a look." Yin Che moved to tug at his shirt.

Jiang Yao caught his hand. "It's nothing. It's probably just a little bruise, that's all. I'll go to the hospital tomorrow for an examination."

"Alright, I'll accompany you."

"No need. Stay here and help me by requesting leave for me from Lao Wu, then help me some more by backing up my lie. I told the gate guard that those guys were thieves who entered the school to steal stuff and that I just happened to catch them. When the gate guard tells Zhang Jiaozhu, Zhang Jiaozhu will come around to investigate. Just say that you lost something."

Yin Che was speechless. "You're really skilled at weaving a story."

Jiang Yao smiled, "I have a lot of experience."

-

The next day, Master Zhang really did come around to investigate.

"I heard that a thief came into your class? Take a look and see if you lose anything, alright?"

Zhang Ke rummaged through his drawer and raised his hand, "Laoshi! I lost my bread!"

Chen YingYing smacked him. "You couldn't bear it anymore and ate it during self-study last night, did you forget?"
