Chapter 221: The Big Idiot and the Promise
6:30 a.m.
Since it was the weekend, the five roommates were still sleeping in the dormitory.
Su Ruochu woke up early by herself, washed up, and washed her face...
Sitting at the desk, Su Ruochu hesitated for a while but eventually opened the small drawer and took out a few bottles of makeup.
To be honest, as a girl, Su Ruochu was almost the least concerned about makeup among the girls in the dormitory.
She usually went with a bare face, or at most applied some simple makeup and lipstick...
She had very few makeup products, looking at the few small bottles in front of her.
Su Ruochu sighed.
"Su Ruochu, today is your 19th birthday, be happy."
She said and picked out a moisturizer and a lipstick.
Even on her birthday, she only put on light makeup, and finally applied some lipstick.
Looking at herself in the mirror, Su Ruochu's face turned a little red.
A woman's beauty is for her own sake.
These few makeup products were secretly bought at the mall when she went on her first date with Chen Fan during the summer vacation.
After tidying up the makeup, Su Ruochu walked to the wardrobe and gently opened the door.
Looking at the clothes inside, she had a bit of a headache, which one should she choose?
She took out a pair of jeans, a casual girl-next-door look that she often wore.
She also took out a floral long dress, which she had worn at the beach resort last time.
Finally, Su Ruochu's eyes fell on another piece of clothing on the hanger.
This was also picked out by Chen Fan when they went shopping last time, a denim mini skirt.
Su Ruochu quite liked it at the time, but when she tried it on in the dormitory, she felt the skirt was too short, exposing almost her entire long legs.
This piece of clothing had been left in the wardrobe since then.
Su Ruochu hesitated for a moment, took out the denim mini skirt, and then took out a pair of long stockings from the side.
Looking at the three pieces of clothing she had picked out, Su Ruochu was a bit conflicted.
Which one should she wear today?
After hesitating for a long time, in the end, she didn't choose any of these three.
Instead, she picked out a new set of clothes from the wardrobe.
A light pink mesh fringe mini skirt, with a simple white short-sleeved T-shirt on top, printed with a cute little bear pattern, and a light pink knitted cardigan on the outside.
Her feet were paired with a pair of sports sneakers.
This style was innocent yet cute, playful yet slightly sexy.
She believed a certain someone would like it.
Su Ruochu stayed in the dormitory alone until 7:30 a.m.
Some girls in the dormitory had already woken up.
"Hey, Ruochu, you're so dressed up, are you going on a date with your boyfriend?"
Su Ruochu smiled shyly.
"Do you want to go to the cafeteria together for breakfast?"
Su Ruochu thought for a moment, that big fool would probably sleep in and miss breakfast.
"No thanks. You go ahead."
"Okay, have fun today. And happy birthday by the way."
"Thank you."
Watching her roommate leave for breakfast, Su Ruochu checked the time.
7:30 a.m. That big lunk should be coming soon, right?
Hope he remembers today is my birthday.
If he really forgets, I... I won't talk to him for the whole day, hmph.
Downstairs of the dormitory building.
Two roommates who came back from breakfast looked at Su Ruochu, surprised that she was still standing downstairs.
"Hey, Ruochu, why haven't you left yet?"
"Your boyfriend hasn't shown up?"
Su Ruochu smiled bitterly and shook her head.
"This guy must have overslept."
"Your boyfriend can actually oversleep on your birthday, he's really careless."
"Hehehe, Ruochu, don't show him a good face today, unless he apologizes to you."
"Yeah, and it has to be a sincere apology, he must prepare a satisfactory birthday gift for you."
After joking with the two roommates, Su Ruochu watched them enter the dormitory building.
She took out her phone and checked the time.
It was already 8:30 a.m.
Half an hour had passed since the time Chen Fan promised to meet.
She felt a little helpless.
She directly called Chen Fan's phone.
"Sorry, the number you have dialed is currently switched off."
Su Ruochu: "..."
This big stupid pig!
Why would his phone be turned off?
Could he have overslept?
This time, she was truly a bit angry.
Of course, more than that, she felt hurt.
She thought about turning back to the dormitory to teach that someone a lesson.
But after thinking it over, she eventually went to the cafeteria alone, buying two bowls of eight-treasure porridge and an egg.
She drank one bowl herself, and with the other portion, she headed towards Dormitory Building No. 11 where Chen Fan lived.
Upon arriving at the bottom of the building, looking at the male students coming and going at the entrance, Su Ruochu felt a bit embarrassed.
After hesitating, she thought of a way.
She called Song Linlin on her phone.
She had Song Linlin's contact, and the two often texted each other and occasionally ate together in the cafeteria.
After getting in touch with Song Linlin, she asked her to call Ma Xiaoshuai, and then have Ma Xiaoshuai call out for Chen Fan.
"Just tell Ma Xiaoshuai that if Chen Fan doesn't show up immediately, I'm leaving."
On the other end of the phone, Song Linlin jokingly said with a laugh: "Got it. Don't worry, I'll definitely make sure Ma Xiaoshuai gives him a good scolding."
After hanging up, Su Ruochu felt a little relieved.
She looked up at the male dormitory building and noticed that passing male students would occasionally glance in her direction.
Feeling a bit embarrassed, she moved closer to the side of the road.
At that moment, Song Linlin's phone call came through, and Su Ruochu hurriedly answered it.
"What's the situation? Is that big lunk still not up?"
"Ruochu, it's not good, I just got in touch with Ma Xiaoshuai, and he told me he's at the police station right now. He said Chen Fan was taken away by the police last night."
On the other end of the phone, Song Linlin's panicked voice came through.
Plop.
The bag in Su Ruochu's hand dropped to the ground, the eight-treasure porridge spilled everywhere, and the egg rolled away.
Su Ruochu's face turned pale, and she looked panicked.
"You... what did you say? Say it again?"
...
The time was forty minutes earlier.
At the entrance of the police station, Ma Xiaoshuai and Luo Wenjie were standing anxiously, one smoking with his head down, and the other occasionally looking up towards the inside.
"Why aren't they out yet?"
Ma Xiaoshuai felt restless and irritated.
Luo Wenjie muttered, "That Manager Ding went in with a lawyer, didn't she? It should be fine."
"Besides, don't inform the other guys in our dormitory about this yet."
"It's not a glorious thing, Old Chen probably doesn't want people to know."
Ma Xiaoshuai nodded, "I know. That's why I only called you over."
Luo Wenjie angrily threw the cigarette in his hand to the ground and put it out.
"Damn! Don't let me find out who did this."
Just as he was saying that, Ma Xiaoshuai looked up excitedly and shouted.
"They're out."
At the entrance of the police station, Ding Dian, Feng Pojun, and that lawyer Liang came out with Chen Fan.
A police officer said to Chen Fan, "Before the case is fully solved, you're still a suspect."
"You can't leave Yunhai for now, and you need to be available whenever we call you to assist with the investigation."
Chen Fan smiled and nodded.
"No problem."
"Alright. You can go now."
Chen Fan looked up at the sun that had just risen in the sky and squinted his eyes instinctively.
After a sleepless night, Chen Fan looked exhausted, with sparse stubble growing on his chin.
"Are you okay? Do you want to go back and rest first?"
Chen Fan turned to the three of them, "Thank you for your trouble, for staying up all night with me."
Ding Dian handed him a file bag.
"These are your personal belongings."
Then she snorted coldly, "I've already asked Old Feng to send people to find that woman. Let's see what evidence she has to prove you did it."
Chen Fan waved his hand, seeming indifferent to all this.
"You guys go ahead, I still have something to do."
After saying that, Chen Fan quickly walked out of the courtyard and approached Ma Xiaoshuai and Luo Wenjie at the entrance.
The two of them came over, one wanting to hug him, the other wanting to ask something.
But they were both interrupted by Chen Fan raising his hand.
"No need for chitchat, give me your keys, let's go back to school first!"
"Today, I have a promise with a girl..."
