Chapter 1584: The Fake Young Master Is Going to Be Spoiled by the Real Young Master 14

After one class ended, the forum post shot up many floors instantly.

Yu Xing was happily eating his snacks, and with a ten‑minute break between back‑to‑back classes, he ran to the supermarket to buy some snacks; on his way back, before he even entered the classroom, he heard a girl call his name, and the very next sentence was: "I like you!"

Yu Xing:??

He was so startled that the lollipop in his mouth fell out, and he flusteredly clutched various snack bags, uttering, "This…… isn't appropriate, is it?"

We've never even met before!

The girl was also bewildered, "No…… isn't it inappropriate? How do you know it's inappropriate?"

Yu Xing was greatly shocked, "Inappropriate means… inappropriate, but thanks for your liking."

The girl was stunned.

She widened her eyes, looked at Yu Xing, then glanced at his roommate Yu Xing behind him, and suddenly understood completely.

"Then I wish you happiness!"

"Huh?" Yu Xing watched the girl run away, blankly glancing back.

That was his roommate Yu Xing, who hardly ever came to school.

Yu Xing raised an eyebrow, full of amusement, "Thanks for coming to my aid."

Yu Xing: ……

He stammered, "So… what that girl just said was… your name, huh."

Yu Xing, dazed, shoved a packet of chips at him, "Long time no see, wishing you wealth."

Then he bolted into the classroom, his little‑bear cap unable to hide his fully flushed face.

How could anyone do something so embarrassing!

"Chen‑bro! Here's the coffee you wanted."

Jin Chen glanced at him, surprised, "Did you get heatstroke?"

Yu Xing sat down beside him, lifelessly slumped over, "So embarrassing…"

Zhu Suisheng glanced forward curiously, then suddenly flashed his trademark wicked grin, "What a coincidence!"

Yu Xing: ……

He flusteredly stepped back half a step, his pupils trembling.

Why? Why? Why!

Why is Zhu Suisheng here? His brother said last night that Zhu Suisheng might be unhappy because of Zhou An's situation, so he should avoid provoking him to keep from being screwed over.

How did we run into each other today! And we're even sitting together with his roommate, whom I've barely met!

Being at the same university really sucks—you run into ghosts every day.

Yu Xing took a seat in the row behind them, set down his backpack, his face so tense that none of his earlier composure and playfulness from the classroom doorway was visible, and he additionally glanced at Jin Chen with a pitying, sympathetic look.

Too awful.

He actually ended up catching Zhu Suisheng's eye.

"Quite…… a coincidence." Yu Xing gave a fake smile but acted obediently.

Zhu Suisheng smiled as he took a sip of coffee.

"Quite…… a coincidence." Yu Xing avoided direct talk with Zhu Suisheng, stared fixedly at Jin Chen, and said, "The student council suddenly launched a major inspection in the dorms, especially our floor."

"They say someone stole something, and it's become a big deal."

Just then, the class monitor came over holding a phone, his gaze at Jin Chen hard to put into words, saying, "The counselor told you to return to the dorm for a moment—Zhou An suspects you stole his family heirloom jade pendant, his parents have come over, and if the situation is true you could very well be expelled."

Jin Chen: ……" Is the protagonist top crazy?

Rushing up to expose my identity, the villain side‑quest progress isn't even finished—once my identity's exposed I'll have to change tactics!

Zhu Suisheng slammed the table: "Is Zhou An crazy!"

"I'll go with you." Zhu Suisheng grabbed Jin Chen's hand, feeling somewhat uneasy.

If the person coming is Mom, it'll be bad—she'll surely notice Jin Chen's appearance.

He took a deep breath, even entertaining the thought of buying a hitman.

Yu Xing saw them leave, then reached from behind and grabbed Yu Xing's little‑bear cap, saying, "Wanna go watch the commotion?"

"We shouldn't go, right?" Yu Xing hesitated, even though he kind of wanted to.

"You should go—if Jin Chen gets fired by some higher‑up, you'll be of the most use." Yu Xing laughed while gripping the little‑bear ears.

Yu Xing widened his eyes, cautiously glanced at Yu Xing, and said, "What do you mean by that? You know my……"

"Know what? The 'star' in Fanxing University is the same 'star' as in Yu Xing."

Yu Xing: ……

It's over—my biggest secret has been found out by Yu Xing!

——

Zhu Suisheng still hoped the person arriving wasn't Mom, until the elevator doors opened and, hearing Shi Qian's angry voice echoing from the open dorm down the hallway, he finally realized he was doomed.

Zhou An is just an invincible idiot!!

But he didn't know that, on the way over, Jin Chen had already made a new plan—even if he's sent back for a family reunion, it won't interfere with the side quest.

Jin Chen remained calm and composed, long‑striding into the dorm to find everything in disarray.

"Jin Chen, you've finally arrived!"

Zhou An immediately spoke up, looking hurt and betrayed, "How could you steal my jade pendant? I told you it's important to me!"

He shouted those words, but inside he was panicking from fright.

Why is Zhu Suisheng hanging out with Jin Chen again!

The living room held several broken imitation jade‑pendant bracelets, and with Jin Chen's bedroom door wide open, from this angle you could see his desk and drawers tossed into chaos.

Jiang Wen stood with the student‑council staff, involuntarily frowning, feeling that Jin Chen's composure was a bit too calm.

Either he didn't do it, or he has something that could exonerate him.

Regardless of the reason, it's very disadvantageous for Zhou An. After all, Madam Shi was already upset because he had barged into the room without waiting for anyone to return, and Zhou An only avoided further reprimand by producing the fake jade pendant.

Shi Qian heard someone approaching, and also came over from the balcony, immediately feeling somewhat surprised.

It wasn't because she could see something at a glance, but because of Zhu Suisheng.

"Shengsheng, why are you also here?"

Things have come to this point; Zhu Suisheng no longer has any thought of letting Zhou An continue the pretense—worst case, just let Jin Chen go home… Anyway, that clueless Jin Chen can't outdo him.

Zhu Suisheng hurried a few steps toward Shi Qian, saying, "Mom, I heard from a friend that something happened in his dorm, so I came along to check."

"A friend?" Shi Qian wondered; her precious son had said he didn't have many friends at school.

She then looked at Jin Chen, and seeing Zhou An's face full of anger, she exclaimed in surprise to Zhu Suisheng, "Is this friend of yours the one who stole Little An's jade pendant?"

"Mom! He definitely didn't." Zhu Suisheng glanced at Zhou An, gave a light snort, and said, "Let's first hear what Jin Chen has to say; it's not certain yet who stole the jade pendant."
