37 Called by the Chancellor

While Xu Xinya walked her way back towards the classroom, suddenly a boy from senior year came to her. "You must be Ms. Xu, right?"

"Yes." Xu Xinya frowned. "Is there anything?"

"Yes, I was sent by the University Chancellor. Mr. Yin wants to meet you."

Xu Xinya was hesitant. She glanced at her wristwatch. The first lecture would start in fifteen minutes. Her first lecture was in Professor Yang's classroom. She had heard from other students gossiping that Professor Yang was rather strict when it came to punctuality.

"Are you...certain?" Xu Xinya asked, in apprehension.

The boy's expressions changed: "Why would I come all the way to fetch you if not for being certain? Mr. Yin is waiting for you. Do you want to keep him waiting?" His tone was stern, not allowing any nonsense.

Xu Xinya bit her lip in nervousness. "Well, if it is the Chancellor, I can't have him waiting."

Xu Xinya didn't suspect that boy. After all, Chancellor Yin was Yin Yu's father. Besides, Xu Xinya had secured the first position in the University Entrance Exam.

There were plentiful reasons for Chancellor Yin to call her, ranging from good to bad.

Between her course professor and the chancellor, Xu Xinya could only choose the one with higher status. She nodded and followed the senior.

The University Establishment was rather big. It had taken Xu Xinya a lot of time to arrive at the place of her class. Now, to get to the Chancellor's office, it took them even more time.

"How far is it?" Xu Xinya asked she had felt like this senior was rather behaving suspiciously.

First of all, he was walking too slowly.

Second, he appeared to be engaged with someone on the phone.

"Oh, not long. We are close." He said carelessly.

Xu Xinya fell silent and continued to follow that boy. After all, she was new to the University. She was not aware of its pathways.

She had no choice but to follow the guidance of the senior.

...

"Haha, I would love to see that b*tch face once she realizes she has been pranked!" Yin Yu looked very satisfied. "Good thing, you paid heed to my advice and decided to take action against her. Shameless vixens like her should be taught a lesson or else they would never learn. How about this Ying Jie, ask Brother Fu to take a photo of her expressions once she discovers she had been pranked?"

Mindful of Professor Yang's personality, they both had appeared in the classroom ten minutes earlier.

Shen Changying's expressions didn't express the satisfaction she was internally feeling. Instead, her face was wrought in reluctance: "Yu Jie, I don't think it would be a nice idea. After all... after this, we would already have harmed her...just...too much." She said, in a meek, vulnerable tone.

"Ying Jie..." Yin Yu sighed helplessly. "Why are you always this kind-hearted. Because of this, people take advantage of you. You need to learn to stand up for yourself. Since that Xu Xinya took the initiative to sever her connection with you without any reason and hurt you, it is only fair that you get back at her." Yin Yu was particularly enraged at Xu Xinya for hurting her Ying Jie. "Besides, you do not need to worry. If she blames you, I will gladly come forward and take the blame for this incident."

Yin Yu had used her influence as the University Chancellor's daughter to earn a favor from a senior; a classmate of her elder cousin. 

Of course, the Chancellor hadn't called Xu Xinya. Their purpose was to have the senior waste Xu Xinya's time and make her end up being late for the lecture.

"But..." Shen Changying still appeared guilty. However being fixed with Yin Yu's glare, she sighed in defeat. "Alright, Yin Yu, since you say so, I won't stop you." She smiled gently as a flicker of vicious intent flashed in her eyes. But it vanished before the dense Yin Yu could have even detected. 

Just at that point, Professor Yang entered the classroom.
