The Mad Beauty Professor Forced Me to Mark Her - Chapter 15
Qi Si had a bad feeling. She had only just experienced the Su family’s violence and arrogance and knew exactly what kind of people they were. If Lin Ye had not suddenly appeared today and suppressed the scene, Qi Si might have taken a beating for nothing.
Even Qi Si, the actual victim, had been treated like that when she went to reason with them. What use would it be for Shen Yixuan to go? What justice could she get? Would she buy one beating and get another free?
Qi Si called her back, her tone urgent. “Shen Yixuan, come back. Don’t go looking for trouble!”
“I’m not looking for trouble. I just want to ask her why she framed you, why she refuses to let you go. Don’t worry. This time, I have to help you!”
Qi Si said, “I already talked to her. It’s useless. Come back.”
“Then that’s even worse. Anyway, I can’t accept it. I have to make things clear! I was the one who helped recommend you for the mouse-raising job. I was responsible for this in the first place. If she planned to frame you from the start, then she clearly used me. Why?”
Shen Yixuan complained over the phone, her voice sounding somewhat hoarse and exhausted.
Qi Si calmly advised her, “Come back. It’s too late today. If you go now, they’ll all be asleep.”
“Don’t worry about it. I’ll handle this myself. This isn’t just to get justice for you. It’s also to get an explanation for myself. Just wait for my news.”
The call was hung up. When Qi Si called again, the phone was turned off.
After thinking in place for a moment, Qi Si called Ji Min.
“Hello?” Ji Min clearly was not asleep yet, and she sounded very confused that Qi Si was calling her.
Qi Si spoke quickly. “Shen Yixuan went to Su Moxiao’s house to demand an explanation. Do you know who she went with? How did she know Su Moxiao’s home address?”
Ji Min hesitated. “She didn’t tell us. Is she at Su Moxiao’s house now?”
Qi Si said, “Check if her computer is on. Look through her chat history and see where she got Su Moxiao’s address from. Copy it and send it to me.”
Ji Min said, “That… doesn’t seem very good, right? Even if she went to Su Moxiao’s house, what could go wrong?”
Qi Si thought for a moment, softened her tone, and spoke steadily into the phone. “Su Moxiao’s family has bodyguards. If Shen Yixuan went there, she’ll probably get beaten. I have to pull her back.”
Only then did Ji Min take it seriously. “Wait while I turn on her computer.”
Ai Wen heard the noise and came over. “What’s going on? You’re helping Yuan Lü too?”
Ji Min ignored her. From Qi Si’s end of the line came the rustling sound of a keyboard and mouse.
Ai Wen said, “Sister Min, say something?”
“Move aside. Don’t get in the way,” Ji Min snapped impatiently.
Ai Wen pushed Ji Min away, picked up Shen Yixuan’s computer, and refused to let her touch it. She raised her chin in an annoyingly punchable way. “This is the dorm leader’s computer. Why can you just turn it on whenever you want?”
Ji Min gradually grew irritated. “Can you stop getting in the way? If you’re sick, go to the hospital. This is urgent. Get lost!”
Xu Yuqing was startled by their argument and weakly cut in. “Sister Min, what happened? Why are you two arguing?”
Qi Si’s voice came through the speaker. “Ji Min, forget it. I’ll ask someone else.”
Ai Wen snorted. “Ask whoever you want. Don’t bother the people in our dorm.”
Xu Yuqing said, “Wenwen, you’re being too unreasonable. Sister Min, what exactly is so important?”
Ji Min did not waste words with them. She turned around, took an electric baton from the drawer, and before Ai Wen could see clearly what it was, thrust it toward her abdomen.
The electric current made Ai Wen scream. While she let go, Ji Min immediately snatched the computer back. Under Xu Yuqing’s stunned gaze, she continued searching through Shen Yixuan’s social software.
“Done. I sent it to you,” Ji Min said to Qi Si on the other end.
“Okay, thank you. It would be best to contact the counselor too.” As soon as Qi Si finished speaking, the ride she had booked on the app had already arrived nearby. She hung up, contacted the driver, and after getting in the car, messaged Ji Min again.
On this side, Ji Min looked at Xu Yuqing. “Call the counselor. Say a student was in a car accident and ask him to come over.”
Xu Yuqing was dazed. “Me?”
Ji Min said, “Who else? Do you have any other use?”
Xu Yuqing whimpered. Looking at the weapon in Ji Min’s hand sparking with electricity, she became deeply frightened. Ai Wen was already lying down, and she did not want to lie beside her. So she cried over the phone to the counselor. Sure enough, her panicked tone fooled the counselor into practically teleporting over.
Land in Jinghai City was worth its weight in gold. The Su family’s villa courtyard alone occupied a thousand square meters, and everyone living in that residential district was either wealthy or famous in Jinghai.
It took Qi Si more than half an hour to get there by taxi. That was enough time for Shen Yixuan to court death. Before Qi Si even got out of the car, she saw several male Alphas in the mansion’s courtyard surrounding someone and punching and kicking them.
Qi Si said to the driver, “Help me call the police. Also, help record a video as evidence. I’ll give you money later.”
The driver nodded in agreement. Just as he took out his phone, he saw Qi Si rush into the courtyard to break up the fight.
Qi Si pulled two people away and shouted at them, “Stop hitting her! I’ve already called the police!”
The men turned to look at her. One of them was Su Shuang’er, whom she had only met that afternoon. He said viciously, “You want to die too?”
“I’m here to take her away! The police will be here soon!” Qi Si glared back. “Su Shuang’er, watch yourself! Sooner or later, I’ll send you to prison!”
One side of Su Shuang’er’s mouth twitched. “Try it if you dare.”
Qi Si went to pull up the person on the ground. Their head was covered in blood, and their features were obscured by the bloodstains. Qi Si could not recognize her at all. Afraid of getting the wrong person, she could only ask, “Shen Yixuan, is that you?”
Shen Yixuan was weak and spat blood at her.
At that moment, the light on the south-facing balcony opposite the courtyard suddenly went out. Su Shuang’er looked up, raised his face, and asked, “Sister, what should we do?”
In the shadows of the second-floor balcony, Su Moxiao suddenly rolled her eyes. “Are you afraid of them?”
“How could that be?” Su Shuang’er clenched his fists. At the same time, he kicked toward Shen Yixuan’s forehead.
“Stop!” Qi Si was furious. She rushed up and shoved Su Shuang’er away, then punched him in the face.
After taking the punch, Su Shuang’er instead became even more excited. The veins in his eyes filled with blood, blue veins bulging as he cried “ahh!” and launched a headbutt at Qi Si.
Qi Si let go of him as if she had seen a ghost, but she still inevitably ended up grappling with him. Fortunately, when she had wandered through Southeast Asia, she had learned Muay Thai. The anger she had been suppressing all night was finally released.
The other two bodyguards also joined the brawl. Qi Si fought three against one and did not go down. She even crippled one of them. Seeing that things were going badly, Su Moxiao hurried downstairs and brought Su Shuang’er an electric baton.
Qi Si said, “…Are you insane?”
“You trespassed into a private residence. No matter what happens, you deserve it!” Su Moxiao was angry and laughing at the same time, wishing she could return the anger she had suffered from Lin Ye ten times over to Qi Si. “I may not be able to deal with you at school, but don’t tell me I can’t do it in my own home?!”
“I only want to take Shen Yixuan away. I have no other intention.” Qi Si wiped her face. The back of her hand was covered in blood. If they really brought out an electric baton, she would back down. Being electrocuted did not feel good.
Su Moxiao said, “Did I say you could leave?”
Qi Si asked, “Then what do you want?”
“Apologize. Kneel down!” Su Moxiao casually pointed with her hand. “Otherwise, I’ll have someone break her hand so she can never become a doctor!”
Qi Si said coldly, “If you dare do that, then I can tell you too—from now on, you’d better keep bodyguards around you at all times. As long as I catch even the slightest chance, your hands, your eyes, that precious gland of yours, your wealth, and everything you currently possess will all become things you remember every day but can never have again. You’d better live in fear and never sleep day or night. As long as you let down your guard even a little, trash from the bottom like us will risk everything to destroy you.”
Su Moxiao’s expression wavered. An unbelievable mix of anger and silent wailing bloomed in her pupils. She mouthed to Qi Si: “Go die.”
By the time Qi Si reacted, a heavy blow had already struck down from behind. She fell onto the lawn, her head smashing a pit into the dirt, nearly knocking her unconscious on the spot.
At the same time, another small car drove into the residential district, hazard lights flashing and horn blaring nonstop as it arrived at the scene in a rush.
Ji Min was the first to rush out of the car. Behind her followed the greatly alarmed counselor Guo Mi, and Xu Yuqing, who was tightly hugging her own arms and trembling.
Qi Si had not completely lost consciousness. With someone supporting her, she climbed up. Su Moxiao looked a little panicked. “You people came to my house in such a grand way. I’m going to call the police.”
Guo Mi had never seen a scene like this before. They were bullying the weak with their strength and then turning around to accuse the victim. Holding his chest as if having a heart attack, he said, “Student Su, someone got hurt in your home. You have to take responsibility!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the police arrived with sirens blaring. Two uniformed officers got out of the car, holding batons and guns.
“Call 120. Shen Yixuan’s condition isn’t good.” Qi Si had almost lost all feeling in her neck, but her eyes were growing brighter. She glanced at Su Moxiao, who retreated several steps. Perhaps remembering what Qi Si had said earlier, Su Moxiao belatedly started to feel afraid.
Su Shuang’er stood beside her, gently supporting her left and right arms, and mouthed, “Don’t be afraid. I’m here.”
In the end, Su Shuang’er was handcuffed and taken away by the police. Qi Si went to give a statement, while the others followed Shen Yixuan to a nearby hospital.
Qi Si showed the police the evidence recorded by the driver and also forwarded it to the class group as a backup.
The video quickly spread through the alumni groups. The forum was full of discussions about the incident, and the heat did not drop for several days.
Public opinion finally shifted. The students repeatedly went to counselor Guo Mi, demanding that he give an explanation for the student who had been beaten.
Guo Mi could not withstand such great pressure and passed the buck to the medical school’s administration.
The students voiced their demands one after another.
“They must compensate medical costs and emotional damages!”
“Su Moxiao must publicly apologize! She has to kneel and apologize!”
“Can we directly sue Su Moxiao?”
“Who’s going to sue? Shen Yixuan still hasn’t woken up in the hospital. Her family only has a single mother, and she only got to the hospital yesterday!”
At the same time, Su Moxiao’s family quickly reacted. As the director of Huali Hospital, Su’s father immediately arranged a private ward for Shen Yixuan and privately promised Shen’s mother a large compensation, asking that poor mother to give up the lawsuit. During this period, Su Moxiao took leave and did not go to school. Her behavior also became much more low-key and steady.
As long as the family members of the victim were dealt with, no matter how much the students made a fuss, it would be useless.
After three days in criminal detention, Su Shuang’er was released. Shen Yixuan’s disability assessment came back as Grade Seven, belonging to the category of moderate-to-minor disability. In reality, she had multiple rib fractures, nerve damage in her right leg, a fractured right hand, decreased hearing in her left ear, blurred vision, impaired gland function, and a mild concussion.
The diagnosis did not sound particularly severe. After the students heard about it, their thoughts of litigation gradually faded. In the end, the matter was left unresolved.
Qi Si went to the hospital to visit Shen Yixuan. At the time, Shen Yixuan had just woken up and was staring at the ceiling with empty, lifeless eyes.
The young person who had acted stubbornly, with a chest full of passion and a beginner’s sense of justice, now lay in bed unable to understand no matter what why things had ended like this.
Her mother had worked hard to raise her and send her into the top medical school at University A, hoping she could stay in Jinghai, make something of herself, become a top doctor, and completely change her fate. But because she had overestimated herself and forced herself to stand up for someone else, a single blow was enough to destroy her future, extinguish her spirit, and leave her spending the rest of her life filled with hatred, anxiety, and self-abandonment, never again able to reclaim a young person’s proud self-respect and the freedom she had once had to look down on power.
Qi Si stood before the hospital bed, feeling as though her heart had been tightened by millions of steel cords until she could not breathe.
Shen Yixuan’s head turned with difficulty in the neck brace. She looked sideways at Qi Si and said numbly, “My gland is damaged. The injury is irreversible. From now on, I’m a disabled Alpha.”
In truth, damage to the gland was not important at all. Ordinary Betas were born without this organ and lived perfectly fine lives. In comparison, nerve damage in the right leg meant she might limp when walking in the future. Damage to the tendons in her fingers would affect her ability to hold a scalpel. Hearing and vision loss made her look both deaf and blind… But Shen Yixuan was an oddball. What she cared about most was not these bodily functions. She only cared about the honor and pride of being a female Alpha, and the fact that she could never return to the female Alpha group she once belonged to.
Qi Si endured and endured before saying gently, “Idiot. The gland really isn’t that important. Cherish what you still have. Live well. Wait and watch her build a tall tower, watch her host banquets, then watch her tower collapse.”
This storm seemed to have calmed, but many undercurrents were still surging.
Su Moxiao’s persona had collapsed only in the eyes of ordinary people. In Zhou Weihang’s group chat, they had been speaking up for her all along, discussing how to clear her of the “rumors.”
But not long afterward, during an open lecture, a medical school student named Li Xu inserted a USB drive to present his assignment. After the PowerPoint opened, the style suddenly changed drastically, and the private videos he had hidden were publicly played on the big screen.
Some people below were terrified, some laughed, some were dumbfounded, and some hurriedly took out their phones to record. Even the public elective teacher was startled, never expecting these students to play this wildly.
Li Xu was scolded bloody and hurriedly tried to turn off the video, but it was unclear whether the classroom computer had caught a virus or something else. The video could not be closed for a long time and even played in a loop.
The classroom descended into chaos. Li Xu frantically pulled out the USB drive, but the projected image kept playing, even making some people excited.
In the end, someone cut the classroom’s power, and the farce finally stopped.
After making such a scene, Li Xu was thoroughly socially dead. Even people like Zhou Weihang turned on him as a group.
What went around came around. Once, this group had targeted Qi Si. Now, they began targeting Li Xu, who had betrayed them. Beating, bullying, insulting, playing little tricks—Li Xu was tormented until he did not dare go to class during the day and had to wear a mask when going out at night. Whenever someone occasionally recognized him, they mocked him fiercely.
“Holy crap, bro, you’re too bold. Playing porn in a public elective? Now the whole world knows your name. Your taste just isn’t very good. Su Moxiao’s image has already collapsed, okay!”
On the other side, the Su family’s lawyer’s letter arrived as expected. Su Moxiao, who had not appeared for a long time, returned to campus amid the storm.
During this period, Qi Si never received a call from Lin Ye. She was almost about to forget about that matter.
Maybe… Lin Ye had forgotten too?
The temperature dropped sharply.
In early November, Qi Si followed MII to the hospital for the drug trial. When her blood was being drawn, the doctor stared at her until she felt uneasy.
