"The person is here, let's go downstairs."

After hanging up the phone, I said to Shen Yuan.

Shen Yuan's face was pale.

"Did you really call him here?"

"Lin Wan, are you serious? I said I wanted to return the necklace to you."

"This is between us, we could have resolved it privately. Do you really want everyone to make fun of us? If this matter escalates, they might be pointed at when walking on the street."

Shen Yuan pointed to the other two roommates.

One roommate spoke up, "I think Wan Wan did the right thing, this is not a small matter."

Another roommate also agreed, "Yuan Yuan, rest assured, we are your and Wan Wan's roommates, we will definitely support you both. If Gu Heng really has a problem, we will stand by your side."

Shen Yuan's face grew even paler.

She wanted to use her roommates as a shield, but with her roommates speaking up like this, she had no choice.

Finally, she reluctantly went downstairs.

Gu Heng was already waiting downstairs, dressed in a military uniform, handsome features, a rebellious temperament, a cold expression on his face. The morning golden light fell on the top of his head, softening the hostility emanating from him.

Many passing girls glanced at him inadvertently, but he didn't even bat an eye.

It wasn't until I appeared that Gu Heng's cold expression seemed to thaw.

Just as he was about to come forward, he saw Shen Yuan and the roommates beside me, and he paused.

"I know you." Gu Heng suddenly looked at Shen Yuan and spoke.

Both my roommates and I were stunned.

Shen Yuan's face, which was slightly bluish, instantly lit up with joy upon hearing him speak, and she quickly stepped forward, "Of course, we know each other, brother, before..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Gu Heng immediately avoided her with disgust.

Without hesitation, he turned to me and said, "Wan Wan, she was the one who kept peeking at me during the public classes, several times she even tried to take pictures of me, and she wrote notes to harass me, making me very uncomfortable."

"Why are you with this peeping tom?"

"Stay away from her, don't let her get too close to you."

Saying this, Gu Heng pulled me in his direction.

Shen Yuan's face instantly lost its color.

But she quickly adjusted, her expression returning to normal as she said with a hint of grievance, "Brother, I know..."

"Stop cackling, every time you speak, I feel like a rooster crowing."

Before Shen Yuan could finish her sentence, Gu Heng cut in with disgust.

I rarely saw him speak so harshly to a girl, the last time was with a maid who was rude to me when I visited his house.

"Wan Wan, why did you bring her here? Did she also peep at you?" Gu Heng suddenly asked.

His tone softened suddenly.

The speed of his change in demeanor left my roommates dumbfounded.

Shen Yuan also stood dumbfounded in place, probably never expecting Gu Heng's temper to change so quickly, and his focus to be so biased. All the prepared excuses she had in mind were stuck at the tip of her tongue.

It seemed she didn't really understand Gu Heng.

I chuckled and said to Gu Heng, "No, she's just our roommate, Shen Yuan, whom I called you about on the phone."

"Your roommate?" Gu Heng exploded, "Then I'll apply to change dorms later and get her moved out."

"Why didn't you tell me earlier that you have a roommate who's a perverted peeping tom? Later, remember to check her phone at the party, see if she's been taking pictures of you!"

Shen Yuan's face turned green.

Unable to hold back any longer, she blurted out, "I'm not."

"Then why did you peek at me before, and take pictures of me?" Gu Heng asked angrily.

"I just thought you were handsome..." Shen Yuan was almost in tears, her eyes reddening.

"There are plenty of people who think I'm handsome, but none as perverted as you!"

Shen Yuan was close to tears, her eyes turning red.

One of the roommates didn't want things to get too ugly, so she quickly explained the situation with the necklace to Gu Heng.

Facing the roommates, Gu Heng's expression softened considerably.

By the time he heard the whole story, his expression had almost completely calmed down. I glanced at Shen Yuan beside me.

Perhaps feeling that Gu Heng would find it hard to explain no matter what, her face gradually regained its color as she began to see a glimmer of hope.

It must be said that Shen Yuan's mental resilience was quite strong.

Even though Gu Heng had shown such disgust towards her before, when she felt a glimmer of hope, there was a hint of excitement in her eyes.

Seeing Gu Heng remain silent, she was eager to try.

But she didn't know that Gu Heng during a storm was not to be trifled with.

On the contrary, the more silent he was, the more intense his hostility.

What awaited Shen Yuan next was probably more severe consequences than she had imagined.
