Chapter 158: Extreme Personality

"Wooo—wooo—wooo!"

Inside the classroom, a crowd of students whispered, curious as to why a fire truck had suddenly appeared at the school.

Could it be that the dormitory building was on fire?

Some even poked their heads out to peer out the window, but unfortunately, they gained nothing. It wasn't until the class ended that everyone learned the girl named Li Yan had been unable to let go of a breakup and had run to the top of the teaching building to attempt suicide.

Fortunately, she was rescued in time by firefighters, and no irreparable consequences occurred.

Wu Yue'er was so scared her face turned pale, "My god! That little round-faced girl wouldn't have tried to end it just because I scolded her a couple of times, would she?"

Lin Yang comforted her, saying, "Not a chance. That Li Yan is clearly a 'love-brain'; she just got hot-headed after being dumped. It has nothing to do with you."

Shen Yan chimed in, "Don't take the blame on yourself. Anyone would fight back if they were scolded and accused for no reason. The conflict lies in the fact that there was a problem with her relationship."

As the saying goes, do not advise others to be kind if you have not experienced their suffering, but seeking death over love is truly not a wise move.

The words of the two made Wu Yue'er heave a sigh of relief, as if a burden had been lifted. She had just been scolding back in retaliation, and the words had just slipped out; who knew that Li Yan's heart was so fragile and vulnerable?

It was just a breakup; was there any need to seek death like that?

Fortunately, nothing happened.

Wu Yue'er couldn't help but feel a lingering fear. Although it wasn't her responsibility, if a precious life had been lost because of this, she might never have felt at peace for the rest of her life.

From the mouths of others, one could learn that Li Yan didn't actually want to die. She had cried hoarsely on the rooftop for a long time, and her only demand was for Zhang Fan to come over and talk, begging Zhang Fan not to break up with her; otherwise, the firefighters would never have had time to stop her.

Girls like this are often relatively simple, with their minds full of love: I love him, he will love me, the two will be together forever, and the prince and princess are destined to walk into the castle.

However, when there is a huge discrepancy between imagination and reality, the mental world collapses completely. In such situations, people with extreme personalities will perform some outrageous actions.

Love is a double-edged sword; it can make people live in heaven, and it can also make people fall into hell.

After the turmoil, the names Li Yan and Zhang Fan caused a sensation throughout the school. At Hangzhou University, with its more than sixty thousand students, big and small things happen every day.

But compared to this incident, they paled in comparison.

A female college student attempting suicide for love—what a sensational hot topic. Even reporters were dispatched, but fortunately, the leaders on the scene made decisive decisions, deleting various videos and forcefully suppressing the news.

Otherwise, it would have triggered another huge uproar and brought great negative impact to the school.

At seven o'clock in the evening, a bright moon hung in the sky like a jade plate, casting soft, water-like radiance and draping the entire campus in a mysterious and charming silver veil.

Inside a spacious and bright large lecture hall on the West Campus, nearly five hundred Law School students gathered. The entire classroom was filled with a dense crowd, like a black ocean, giving people a heavy sense of oppression.

They were either whispering in groups of three or five, silently contemplating alone, or some students were seizing the time to flip through the books and materials in their hands.

Standing on the podium was a tall young man in a suit and leather shoes. His neat, short hair with slanted bangs covered his forehead, and his handsome face revealed a mature and steady temperament.

The Law School leader looked at the situation in the room and couldn't help but nod with satisfaction, then asked, "Yichen, perform well in a while and set a good example for the junior students."

He Yichen smiled modestly, "Dean, you think too highly of me. To be honest, letting a young junior like me give a lecture to the students, I still feel a bit unsure in my heart!"

"After all, I am still in a stage of constant learning and growth myself."

The Dean didn't care at all, patted him on the shoulder, and praised, "I believe in your ability. You are one of the most outstanding talents from our Hangzhou University, and you are so young. I believe you can provide everyone with more suitable and precise advice."

"I will do my best!"

Although he was humble in his speech, as an industry leader who had been in society for many years, He Yichen never lacked confidence. Regarding the young boys and girls in the school, he believed he could still handle them easily.

Just at this moment, Shen Yan walked into the lecture hall with a lollipop in his mouth, striding like a meteor. Seeing him, the Dean hurriedly waved his hand.

"Yichen, let me introduce you. This is the Shen Yan I mentioned to you, the most outstanding young person in the freshman class."

"Shen Yan, this is an elite talent who graduated from our Law School, He Yichen. He currently runs a Law Firm with his partners. You must learn from your senior."

Law students are famous for their good memories. He Yichen was naturally no stranger to Shen Yan, but he didn't expect that a casual act back then would lead to a friendship with such an outstanding junior.

Previously, the Dean had boasted to him quite a bit about how another prodigy had emerged in the school, not only gifted in sports and dance but also scoring near-perfect marks in almost every subject on the midterm exams.

This was an achievement that even he had to admit he couldn't match.

Of course, this didn't mean that Shen Yan would achieve great things in the future, but it proved that Shen Yan was highly gifted. If he developed smoothly, there was a high probability he would become another top lawyer in the legal world.

There should be many opportunities for exchange between the two sides.

He Yichen took the initiative to extend his right hand: "Junior Shen, I didn't expect us to meet so soon. The Dean has praised you to the skies."

In fact, Shen Yan was a bit surprised when he saw He Yichen; he didn't expect the other party to be invited to give a lecture at such a young age.

The Dean was quite open-minded!

Shen Yan reached out to shake his hand and said with a smile, "The Dean overpraised me. I'm just messing around in school; I can't compare to an elite in the legal world like Senior He."

The Dean was slightly stunned, "What, you two already know each other?"

He Yichen said they had had contact, just from the perspective of lawyer and client. The Dean didn't delve deeper, but said, "That's great. You are both talents of Hangzhou University; you can communicate more in the future."

"That goes without saying!"

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Shen Yan walked directly to the location of Lin Yang and his group in the middle seats, and at this time, the group was staring at him in a daze.

It wasn't just them; almost everyone's eyes were focused on Shen Yan.

"What's the situation? How come it feels like Brother Rice Noodle is very familiar with Senior He?"

"Maybe they knew each other beforehand."

"Brother Rice Noodle is a real beast; he gets first place in every subject."

"Since there is a Zhou Yu, why must there be a Zhuge Liang!"

"With such a pearl of excellence before us, we are destined to only be foils."

"I feel that Brother Rice Noodle will be the leader of Hangzhou University in the future."
