Chapter 1692: Caught Red-Handed

Tang Xiaoxiao covered her mouth with one hand and pointed with the other at the bedding beneath Jiang Wenxing's feet: "I was just heading to the canteen with my roommates when I realized I'd forgotten my meal ticket after going downstairs. When I came back, I found Jiang Wenxing had pulled my bedding off the top bunk and was stepping on it with her feet."

At this, everyone's gaze fell on Jiang Wenxing's feet.

Jiang Wenxing, only then realizing what she'd done, jumped away: "I didn't mean to, that..."

A classmate spoke up to retort: "Listen to what you're saying. You didn't mean to?

Do you think the bedding grew legs and jumped to the floor by itself? We're all classmates, and we've only known each other for a day. What terrible grudge could possibly exist to make you trample on classmate Tang Xiaoxiao's bedding like this?"

"Exactly, this can't just be let go. We must notify the homeroom teacher."

Hearing that the homeroom teacher would be called, Jiang Wenxing panicked for a moment: "I said I didn't mean to. I'll just replace it with a new set for her. How old are you? Still running to the homeroom teacher for everything? Aren't you afraid of losing face?"

Hearing her say that, someone grew even angrier: "You're not afraid of losing face when bullying others, so why should we be? This morning you just bullied classmate Feng Erhua. To ease the conflict between you two, classmate Tang Xiaoxiao voluntarily swapped places with Feng Erhua.

And what do you do? This afternoon, you're bullying classmate Tang Xiaoxiao again. Is there something wrong with your brain?"

The dormitory auntie, alerted by the commotion and hearing the full story, formed a much worse impression of Jiang Wenxing: "Regardless of the reason, classmate Tang Xiaoxiao's bedding wouldn't have grown legs and run to the floor by itself. Since you've already said you'll replace it with a new quilt, then replace it right now."

Jiang Wenxing, perhaps feeling cornered and unable to save face, said: "You're just a dormitory auntie; you're meddling too much."

Seeing she was ungrateful, the dormitory auntie replied: "You're right; I indeed can't handle this matter. I'll call your homeroom teacher over to deal with it immediately."

Feng Guangming, who had just entered the faculty dormitory, opened his lunchbox, picked up a dumpling with his fingers, and popped it into his mouth. His eyes immediately lit up: Damn, this dumpling is too delicious."

Just as he was about to eat another, he heard someone shouting downstairs: "Teacher Feng, the dormitory auntie from the girls' dormitory called. She wants you to come over quickly."

The dumpling Feng Guangming was holding fell back into his lunchbox.

Hearing the call, Feng Guangming, though unhappy in his heart, still closed the lunchbox properly: "Alright, I'll be right there. Thank you."

He washed his hands and hurried downstairs.

When he arrived at the girls' dormitory, the dormitory auntie waiting at the entrance stopped him. She recounted the incident: "Your student Jiang Wenxing is a real thorn. You'd better be mentally prepared."

After speaking, she led him toward the second floor.

Inside the dormitory, after the dormitory auntie left, Jiang Wenxing tried to throw the bedding on the floor back onto the top bunk, but Tang Xiaoxiao blocked her: "This bedding has already been stepped on and dirtied. I won't take it back. You must give me an explanation."

Tang Xiaoxiao was someone who could calculate. The bedding falling on the floor was evidence. Her bedding was an old one from her family; her mother had only replaced the cover to avoid people talking.

Because of this, she had always held a grudge. Now it was perfect. She wouldn't let Jiang Wenxing off until she was compensated with a brand-new quilt.

She had already offended someone anyway. Even if she didn't pursue it, the other party wouldn't show her a good face. It was better to use this incident to gain some benefit for herself.

Jiang Wenxing also grew angry: "I already said I'd replace it with a new set. Why must you be so relentless? Insisting on making a big deal out of this—what good does it do you?"
