"Moreover, if anything were to come to light, my father would protect us."

Luo Youyou genuinely couldn't stand Chen Siyu; she was tired of witnessing her constant provocations in their dormitory.

Right at that moment,

The door to the dormitory swung open.

Chen Siyu appeared as cold as ice, accompanied by someone carrying a camera.

Chapter 114

The three in the dormitory were stunned, as if turned to statues.

After a moment of silence.

Luo Youyou's gaze finally landed on Liu Zhiyin, her eyes carrying a warning.

Startled, Liu Zhiyin, who had been lying on the dorm bed, hurriedly got up using both her hands and feet. In her panic, she placed a stuffed doll on Chen Siyu's bed up above.

Slipping on her shoes, she glanced at Chen Siyu standing by the door, camera in hand and a cold demeanor that belied her emotions. She couldn't tell how long Chen Siyu had been outside, or how much of their conversation she had overheard.

Liu Zhiyin's palms were clammy with sweat, her heart pounding as if she had been caught red-handed. Forcing a smile, she stammered, "S-Siyu, when... when did you come back?"

"Right when you were discussing how much poison to give me. Should I thank you for not dosing me too heavily before? That's why I have a chance to learn the truth now, isn't it?"

Chen Siyu held the diagnosis report stating thallium poisoning, her face expressionless.

These three individuals had pretended to be polite and caring towards her, but only because they couldn't stand her, envied her, and sought to take away her life?

Fortunately, Master Chu Da had foreseen the attempt on her life; otherwise, she would have truly passed away without knowing the reason, just as the fortune-teller had predicted.

Never mind not knowing the reason.

The three culprits were living their lives in peace after causing someone's death. How was that fair?

The photographer was quite considerate. After capturing Chen Siyu's actual poisoning at the hospital, he didn't turn off or interrupt the camera during the doctor's urgent treatment. He even changed several batteries along the way to the university.

All for the purpose of capturing every truth on camera.

Including the conversation that just took place outside the door, where the three individuals in the dormitory spoke, was recorded word for word by the camera.

The camera was focused on the dorm, and to prevent any potential danger to Chen Siyu from being alone against the trio, he left the dorm door ajar.

This ensured that any incidents occurring within the dorm would draw ample attention from others.

As expected, upon hearing the dispute, the occupants of neighboring dorms flocked over.

Liu Zhiyin, faced with the questioning, turned pale.

She sought help from Luo Youyou, but upon catching Luo Youyou's furious glare, she promptly averted her gaze. In desperation, she decided to play dumb.

"What poison? What are you talking about, Siyu? Does she think we're trying to harm her or something?"

Luo Youyou, with her harmless appearance, covered her mouth ladylike and chuckled. "Siyu must have misunderstood. We were merely discussing how much coffee to add to perk you up when you return. Maybe the stress of your graduate entrance exam has affected your mental state lately, huh?"

After saying this, Luo Youyou turned to the classmates outside the dormitory, adopting an incredibly innocent and aggrieved expression.

Not at all convinced that she was casting Chen Siyu in a mentally unstable light to outsiders.

"What kind of poison?" Juri Fen also put down her pen, her expression filled with concern. "Is it really because Siyu is under too much mental stress, causing her to hear hallucinations?"

As expected.

After the three of them finished speaking, the other students outside grew curious as well. They had often heard Liu Zhiyin share stories about Room 203 in the past, most of which were rumors painting Chen Siyu in an unfavorable light.

A fellow student inquired.

"Chen Siyu, what's really going on? Liu Zhiyin has always mentioned that your mental state isn't great, and you often lose your temper for no reason in the dorm."

"Liu Zhiyin talked to you about it too? She talked to me as well."

"Ju Lifen also complained. She said living with Chen Siyu is exhausting, always having to cater to her delicate moods."

"I used to think Chen Siyu had a pretty good personality, but now it seems like her calm demeanor was just an act. That's why I stopped hanging out with her later on."

"How could it involve poisoning?"

"It's all classmates, how could they actually poison someone? That's terrifying. Is Chen Siyu suffering from delusions?"

"Siyu, if you're really not feeling well, maybe you should get a check-up at the hospital. I'm also preparing for graduate school, so I understand the pressure."

Seeing that the public opinion was swayed by Luo Youyou's words, Chen Siyu turned around, frustrated, to clarify with her classmates, "They really did conspire to poison me. I've been feeling unwell since last week."

"Luo Youyou, don't you dare slander me in front of everyone," Chen Siyu retorted calmly amidst her peers.

She was convinced that even if Chen Siyu knew about the poisoning, she would not be aware of the specific poison used; thallium poisoning is notoriously difficult to detect in hospitals.

Having made up my mind.

Luo Youyou was even tempted to bite back, "If you really don't believe me, go to the hospital for a check-up. Don't blame us for everything just because you're acting crazy all day long. During the preparation for the postgraduate entrance exam, you've been under pressure, and we've been accommodating to you in every way. Haven't we been good enough to you?"

Liu Zhiyin, observing the growing crowd at the entrance, felt a sense of panic and attempted to close the door. Chen Siyu intercepted her, her voice cold as she asked, "Do you still wish to argue?"

As she spoke, Chen Siyu took out the hospital's examination report. "There's no need for you to remind me to go to the hospital. The report confirming my poisoning is right here. You'd better come with me to the police station and explain yourselves properly!"

Liu Zhiyin's face turned ashen with fear, and she took several steps back.

"Yoyo, what should we do?" She tugged at Luo Youyou's sleeve.

Luo Youyou shrugged off Liu Zhiyin's hand, her face deathly pale as she gritted her teeth. "Even if you're poisoned, it has nothing to do with me. Who knows what garbage you've been eating outside and now you want to blame us?"

Chen Siyu didn't expect Luo Youyou to be so shameless in the face of evidence. For a moment, she was speechless.

Seeing Chen Siyu's silence, Luo Youyou became even more resolute, a hint of smugness showing on her face. "You say we poisoned you, but what proof do you have? Without evidence, don't falsely accuse people!"
