Chapter 336 — Slander from a Colleague

Yang Ce called Xiao Qing "Qingqing" directly because Zhou Yanning already knew about the relationship between Xiao Qing and himself, so there was no need to be evasive. Deliberate evasion would only make Zhou Yanning feel he did not trust her.

Yang Ce needed to find Jing Yu first. From the way Jing Yu had looked when he ran into her earlier, she had probably been on her way to class. He did not know whether her class was over or whether she could take leave midway, so he had to confirm in person beforehand—which was also why he had told Zhou Yanning to go ahead with her work.

He drove to the foot of the arts college building and dialed Jing Yu's mobile. It rang only twice before being hung up on the other end—perhaps Lin Xiaolu was in class and it was inconvenient to answer.

Sure enough, before long Cheng Ming received a text message from Jing Yu: "What is it? I'm in class right now."

"I'm downstairs in your college building. Can you come down now?" Yang Ce had not used text messages in a long time and was somewhat out of practice; it took him ages to type out those few words. He decided talking this way was not as convenient as calling, so he said no more and waited to go over things in detail once Jing Yu came down.

Jing Yu was in class when the phone in her pocket suddenly buzzed. She took it out and saw—it was actually a call from Yang Ce!
