Early in the morning, Mu Yan called Qin Xi first thing.
Qin Xi quickly answered on the other end.
"Qin Xi, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, I drank too much yesterday and seemed to have bothered you."
Mu Yan scolded, "What do you mean by bothering? Just think about our relationship, but..."
She hesitated for a moment, "What's going on with you and Lu Zhaoming?"
"Oh, he explained to me, they're just in a working relationship. You know how handsome Brother Lu is, it's inevitable others might covet him. It's not the first time this has happened. I misunderstood him."
Mu Yan sensed it wasn't that simple and reminded, "No matter what, you need to be careful."
"Don't worry, I know. Let's talk about you. I don't think the expulsion was that simple. That girl, Li Shangjia, is just a student. What leverage does she have to make the school expel a brilliant student like you? Beauty? Money?"
Mu Yan pondered, and Qin Xi's words reminded her of something.
