Chapter 793: I Don’t Think There’s Anything Wrong With My Sister and Man Man

At that moment, the partially open door was forcefully kicked open, and Tong Jiayin strode in with a chilly demeanor.

Qiao Manman’s voice had carried, even with the door barely closed, so Tong Jiayin overheard her words from a distance.

As Tong Jiayin entered, the previously lively dormitory fell into an uneasy silence.

Su Ziyun’s earlier remarks left everyone feeling awkward in the wake of Tong Jiayin’s stern expression.

“Why the sudden silence? Aren’t you all quite eager to gossip about others?” Tong Jiayin’s gaze swept across the room before she folded her arms and fixed a cold stare on Qiao Manman.

Su Ziyun attempted to smooth things over, addressing Tong Jiayin in a courteous tone. “Miss Tong, we’re all classmates who’ve just met. Some conflicts are bound to arise.”

“You were wrong to tamper with the bed, and Gu Jin’s response may have been impulsive. It was inappropriate for us to talk about you behind your back, and I apologize for that.”

“Nevertheless, we’ll have to study and live together in the future. Let’s put this behind us.”

Tong Jiayin responded to Su Ziyun with a hint of graciousness, lifting her chin slightly to exude a sense of superiority. “Do you know who I am?”

Su Ziyun smiled. “I’ve heard of it.”

Qiao Manman couldn’t shake off the feeling that Su Ziyun’s words carried a subtle discomfort, though she couldn’t quite pinpoint what was off. On the surface, everything Su Ziyun said seemed reasonable.

But she couldn’t shake the suspicion that perhaps Su Ziyun was being overly calculating.

In that moment, Gu Yang set aside her belongings and approached. Her tone was gentle as she addressed Su Ziyun, “Su Ziyun, there’s no need for you to apologize. I don’t see anything wrong with my sister and Manman’s actions.”

“As for the incident, Tong Jiayin initiated it. She attempted to claim the bed first, my sister intervened, and when Tong Jiayin resorted to violence, my sister defended herself.”

“As for your comment about discussing behind our backs, there’s a distinction between stating facts and gossip, isn’t there?”

“For instance, if you mention that my sister is reserved and prefers solitude, that’s a factual observation.”

Gu Yang didn’t oppose Su Ziyun’s attempt to mediate, but she questioned the fairness of criticizing everyone. In her view, the truth was on their side.

Su Ziyun’s expression stiffened. She hadn’t anticipated such a firm rebuttal from the typically mild-mannered Gu Yang.

After hearing Gu Yang’s support, Qiao Manman’s stance shifted. “Yangyang is right. What I said was just stating the truth. What’s wrong with that? She initiated the conflict, but I’m not allowed to speak about it?”

Tong Jiayin furrowed her brow and directed her gaze at Gu Yang. She found the Gu sisters increasingly irksome. “Why do you keep dwelling on such a trivial matter?”

Tong Jiayin returned to the dormitory to gather her belongings before departing.

Once Tong Jiayin had left, Su Ziyun approached Gu Yang earnestly. “Yangyang, I’m not implying that you’re at fault.”

“I simply believe that if everyone took a step back, it could prevent further complications. It’s the beginning of the school year, there’s no need to escalate tensions.”

“Moreover, the Tong family holds considerable wealth and influence. You might not fully grasp the extent of it since you’re not from the capital.”

“While Tong Jiayin may not pose a threat to you within the school grounds, what about after graduation? I’m looking out for your best interests.”

“I was just joking about your sister. I didn’t anticipate you taking it so seriously. I apologize to you,” Su Ziyun offered.

Gu Jin’s response was curt: “It’s not amusing.”

Su Ziyun was taken aback.

Gu Yang interjected, “A joke is only humorous if the person it concerns replaces it so. You needn’t apologize to me. You’re addressing my sister, not me.”

“As for the issue with Tong Jiayin, it’s our own affair. We don’t require your intervention. Besides, you’re not the class monitor yet.”

Su Ziyun was slightly stunned. She hadn’t expected Gu Yang to be so perceptive.

Becoming the class monitor was her aspiration. The position held significant influence in university life. It could boost one’s academic standing, forge connections, and enhance one’s resume.

However, with three top-scoring students in the class, she felt overshadowed.

To secure an advantage in the election, she needed to demonstrate her capabilities.
