In the evening, Zhu Zhengchu took Xiang Yutang back. The two of them deliberately took a small path.
When they got to the dormitory building, Xiang Yutang was about to pick up the big bag of snacks, but Zhu Zhengchu took it first.
"Master, what are you doing? You're not going to go back on your word and not give them to me now, are you?"
Zhu Zhengchu was both amused and exasperated. "You ungrateful little thing. These snacks are quite heavy. I'll help you carry them up."
"But this is the dormitory. What if someone else sees us later?"
Zhu Zhengchu said, "It's okay. I've already informed the dorm supervisor in advance. There won't be anyone in the corridor. Let's go."
Xiang Yutang didn't refuse either. The two of them walked while chatting in a low voice.
When they got to the dormitory door, Zhu Zhengchu didn't go in. "I won't go into the girls' dormitory. You go ahead. Hmm? Why is there a photo of Xia Helan on your dormitory door?"
Xiang Yutang took the snacks and said casually, "To ward off evil spirits. I'm going in now. Oh, right, master, wait for me a moment. I'll get something for you."
"Okay."
Xiang Yutang hugged the snacks and went in, cheering, "Baby! Let's eat!"
Zhuo Ziyu came out of the toilet with red eyes. It was obvious that she had just been crying, but she still forced a smile and said, "You're back. Did you have a good time today?"
Xiang Yutang put the snacks down and went up to hold her hand. "Ziyu, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying? Did someone bully you?"
"No. I just had a phone call with my dad. I missed him."
"You're lying. You don't even have a phone. How could you make a phone call!" Except for Xiang Yutang, none of the other trainees had a phone. Xiang Yutang didn't believe that Zhuo Ziyu would steal a phone like she did.
Zhuo Ziyu's smile froze. Oops, she had forgotten about this. She quickly said, "The dorm supervisor just distributed the phones."
"Really? Then I'll go ask the dorm supervisor now." Xiang Yutang said and was about to walk out. Zhuo Ziyu quickly grabbed her.
"Ziyu, what on earth happened? Tell me, okay? I'm so worried about you like this." Xiang Yutang looked at her nervously.
Zhuo Ziyu patted her own face. "Really, it's nothing. Didn't you say there were delicious snacks? Let's eat them."
Since she didn't say, Xiang Yutang guessed on her own. "Did someone bully you? Was it Xia Helan?"
Zhuo Ziyu's hand that was reaching for the snacks paused for a moment and then said, "No. What are you thinking about?"
This reaction made Xiang Yutang sure.
"Damn it. It's that Xia Helan again. What did she do to you? Tell me." Xiang Yutang had never been willing to let Zhuo Ziyu shed a single tear since childhood. She didn't know how that little bitch Xia Helan had provoked her to make her cry.
Zhuo Ziyu said gently, "Really, it's okay, Tangtang. Your reputation is just rising now. There's no need to cause extra trouble."
"You won't tell me, right? Fine. Then I'll go to their dormitory and find her myself!" Xiang Yutang stormed out aggressively and bumped into Zhu Zhengchu who was at the door.
Zhu Zhengchu asked worriedly, "What's going on?"
Just now he had felt that something seemed wrong while listening. Since it was inconvenient for him to go in, he didn't go in to ask. Now seeing Xiang Yutang so angry, he was even more worried. This little girl usually had a good temper. Why was she suddenly so angry?
Zhuo Ziyu was stunned for a moment when she saw Zhu Zhengchu. "Teacher Zhu..."
Zhu Zhengchu explained, "It's too late. I was worried about her safety, so I sent her back. What happened to you guys?"
Xiang Yutang said angrily, "Master, you go back first. I'm going to settle the score with Xia Helan now! I'd like to see what on earth she did to my baby."
Zhuo Ziyu didn't care about Zhu Zhengchu anymore. She grabbed Xiang Yutang. "Tangtang, stop making trouble. She actually didn't do anything. Really, don't go!"
Zhu Zhengchu frowned slightly. "Don't talk at the door. Come in first."
Because he was worried about Xiang Yutang's emotions, Zhu Zhengchu also went in.
"Yutang, stop being angry first." Zhu Zhengchu patted her on the back.
"Ziyu, tell me what exactly happened. Then I'll handle this matter. You don't need to worry."
Zhuo Ziyu hesitated for a moment and downplayed it. "Xia Helan just said some unpleasant things today. That's all."
Zhuo Ziyu had a soft personality. She had been well - protected by her family and Xiang Yutang since childhood. It was the first time she had been provoked and insulted by someone, so she couldn't help feeling aggrieved and had hidden in the toilet to cry secretly.
Xiang Yutang checked her arms. "Did they hit you?!"
"No, no! Really not!"
Zhu Zhengchu said, "Everyone is still at the training ground. They don't dare to go too far."
Xiang Yutang snorted. "I don't care if they hit her or not. Anyway, I'm definitely going to hit her today!"
Zhu Zhengchu gently tapped her on the head. "You little girl. Don't you know that you're in training now? If word gets out that you guys got into a fight, do you still want to debut?"
"I don't care if I debut or not. Anyway, I won't starve to death!" Xiang Yutang was really angry.
Seeing this little girl so angry, Zhu Zhengchu's tone became much gentler. "Okay, stop being angry. Master promises you that master will definitely handle this matter well, okay?"
Actually, last time the things that Xia Helan had done to Xiang Yutang, like giving her peanut butter and ruining her clothes, had already made him very angry. Now it was good. He could settle the old and new scores together!
"No. I must make her kneel down and apologize today!" Xiang Yutang still wanted to rush out. Zhuo Ziyu definitely couldn't hold her back. So Zhu Zhengchu simply picked her up and took her to the small balcony outside for hanging clothes.
"Ziyu, wait for us. I'll teach this little girl a lesson."
Zhu Zhengchu closed the door. Zhuo Ziyu thought of Zhu Zhengchu hugging Xiang Yutang just now. There was a strange feeling in her heart. When had the relationship between Tangtang and Teacher Zhu become so... intimate?
Xiang Yutang's beautiful eyes were wide open. "I'm going to have a one - on - one fight with Xia Helan! Let me out!"
Zhu Zhengchu flicked her on the forehead. "You little girl, why are you so impulsive? Do you have to make everyone know about it?"
"I just want her to apologize to Ziyu in front of everyone!"
Zhu Zhengchu leaned against the wall. "There are many ways to make her apologize. Why do you have to choose a way that will hurt yourself as much as the enemy? It's better to do some things secretly."
Xiang Yutang said, "Do you mean that I should block her when she goes to the toilet?"
Zhu Zhengchu:...
He didn't say that.
"You don't need to worry about this matter. I'll handle it. I can guarantee that she won't make it through the second round."
Xiang Yutang pouted. "I don't want that. I'm an adult. I can handle it myself."
Zhu Zhengchu said, "That's fine. You handle it yourself. From now on, I won't get the phone for you anymore, and I won't take you out to play either."
Xiang Yutang widened her eyes. "You're threatening me! You're so evil!"
Zhu Zhengchu couldn't help laughing. Was this considered a threat?
"Yes, I'm threatening you. Just watch."
Xiang Yutang stared at him for a long time and finally stepped on his foot. "Bad master! I hate you!"
Zhu Zhengchu said with a half - smile, "How can you hate your master? You should like your master."
