293 Nailed to an Elder’s Pillar

“I’m not leaving!” Jin Xuan shouted. “She’ll get us killed! I finally got an A, so I can’t let her taint my teacher’s heart. I…”

“Ring ring…” The crisp sound of a cell phone interrupted Jin Xuan’s roar.

Su Yuan lowered her head and saw that it was Mo Ting calling. She glanced at Jin Xuan.

Jin Xuan immediately realized that this was the person Su Yuan was talking to. She broke free from Wang Jing’s grasp and tried to snatch Su Yuan’s phone.

“Hey, what’s wrong with you!” How could Qu Lin just watch someone try to hurt her? She rushed over to protect her.

When they were pulling, the door wasn’t closed. The other two roommates and their teammates came in and were stunned when they saw this scene. What was going on? Were they going to fight as soon as they moved in?

Su Yuan picked up the phone without any expression. Mo Ting’s deep voice came out from the other end, “Little Yuan, why did you take so long to pick up the phone?”

“Uncle, I’ve run into some trouble here,” Su Yuan rubbed her nose.

The little girl had never taken the initiative to ask him for help when she encountered a problem, but she had told him directly today. It must be something important. Could it be related to the talent show? Didn’t he already enter the dormitory just now? He was in big trouble in less than two minutes? Who bullied her? Zhang Yi?

If he had known that this would happen, he would have asked the Chinese entertainment industry to ban him. Then, there would not have been so much trouble now!

With this thought, Mo Ting felt extremely regretful as he immediately pulled over. “What happened?” he asked after the car stopped.

Su Yuan scratched her nose. It was a little embarrassing to say this, but this was the fastest way to solve it. “My roommates think that we’re in a relationship and said that I broke the contract. They’re afraid that I’ll hide it from everyone and implicate them. Uncle, why don’t you talk to them?”

Mo Ting was speechless.

It was hard for him to describe the feeling in his heart now. It was a little sour and bitter…

“Uncle, did you hear that?” Su Yuan asked. “Is it because you’re overseas that the signal is bad?”

“Uh huh,” Mo Ting pinched the space between his eyebrows. “The signal here is bad.”

Su Yuan continued, “Then, do you have time now? Otherwise, I’ll explain it to them myself.”

“No, you can turn on the speaker. I’ll tell them,” said Mo Ting. Even if Mo Ting used his knees to think, he knew that if Su Yuan were to explain this matter herself, he would be nailed to the pillar of an elder and would never be able to get off.

“Okay,” Su Yuan said. She turned on the speaker and pointed the phone at Jin Xuan.

“Hello, I am Su Yuan’s uncle.”

In reality, when Su Yuan called him ‘uncle’ on the phone, Jin Xuan was already in a daze. Now that he heard Mo Ting’s voice, he was so shocked he almost passed away.

“I heard from my Little Yuan that she’s in trouble. Someone seems to have misunderstood our relationship, and she hopes that I can help her clear her name. However, I don’t think there’s a need for me to explain my relationship with Su Yuan to outsiders. If this student still insists on slandering Little Yuan, I’ll hire a lawyer to intervene in this matter and clear Little Yuan’s name according to China’s laws. I hope that the student who started the rumor will take care of himself!”

After hearing Mo Ting’s words, the entire dormitory fell silent; everyone was stunned.

Su Yuan scratched her head, feeling a little uncomfortable. “Uh… She simply wanted Mo Ting to explain if her uncle had gone a little overboard. Look, Jin Xuan’s face had turned pale from fright.”

Su Yuan immediately nudged Qu Lin. Qu Lin glanced at Su Yuan and immediately understood what she meant. She then turned to the phone and greeted Mo Ting, “Uncle, I’m Qu Lin. Do you remember me?”

Mo Ting’s voice was still cold, but the words he said were much more lively than before. “I remember, Miss Qu. I’ll have to trouble you to take care of Little Yuan in the next four months.”

“You’re being too polite. Besides, I’m not very good at taking care of people. Perhaps Little Yuan will be the one taking care of me, hahaha…” Qu Lin was usually good at adjusting the atmosphere, and with her smile, the surrounding atmosphere suddenly became much better.

Just as Qu Lin was thinking that she should leave after saying a few words and was about to ask Su Yuan for instructions, she heard a sweet voice from outside the door. “Uncle!”

The people in the room turned around to look. They didn’t know when, but many students had gathered at the door to watch the fun. Everyone stared at each other, only to see a chubby girl with short dark green hair squeeze through the crowd with a big bag in her arms. “Uncle, I’m Yue Ping. Do you still remember me?”

Su Yuan furrowed her brows. ‘Uncle’ was her pet name for Mo Ting. Even Qu Lin only called him ‘little uncle’. Yet, she was calling him ‘uncle’ the moment she opened her mouth. Wasn’t she being a little too familiar with him? Although she was unhappy, she didn’t say anything.
