Chapter 422: Where There Are People, There Is a Jianghu

Xinyan carefully confirmed again before saying, "Because I haven’t systematically studied medicine, I only learned some basics from my master. My master mainly has remedies for difficult illnesses, and I can only make medicine by looking at the symptoms.

Looking at Sister Zhenhua’s condition now, it seems she used something she shouldn’t have on her wound after getting injured. Initially, Sister Zhenhua probably didn’t take it seriously, which led to this situation."

Hearing his sister’s words, Han Chaoxu remembered the provocative words from those girls in the ward earlier: "Zhenhua, do you have a grudge with those girls from before?"

Chu Zhenhua was extremely confused in her heart. How could she not understand by now that someone had sabotaged her? She didn’t even need to think about why, but she had no evidence.

Upon hearing Han Chaoxu’s question: "There will be a cultural performance during the National Day, and people from the General Politics Department are coming, supposedly to select candidates. There will be spots available on our side as well, and I have a solo dance opportunity and a group program. Among the few who have the best chance of leading the group dance, I think Xinyan might be right."

Han Chaoxu clenched his fist till it cracked: "This is too malicious. How can someone harm their own teammate for personal gain?"

Xinyan replied indifferently, "Where there are people, there are conflicts. This is human nature."

Han Chaoxu looked at Chu Zhenhua, "We can’t just let this go."

Chu Zhenhua shook her head and said, "Even if they did it, I have no evidence. No one would believe me, and it would rather make people think I’m framing my teammates."

Xinyan admired Chu Zhenhua for this. She spoke correctly; finding the leaders now would be the worst move for her.

Han Chaoxu explained, "I know what you’re worried about, but if we let this go, what about the future?"

Chu Zhenhua frowned, "But I don’t know who exactly did it. That day after I fell, everyone in the dorm helped out. Yan Hong helped fetch the water, Zhang Lan came with a wrung-out towel for my wound, and the disinfectant was brought by Hu Lingling. I don’t know who tampered with it."

Xinyan, upon hearing this, thought: Everyone seems suspicious.

Because whether it was putting something in the water directly, soaking the wrung-out towel, or tampering with the disinfectant, any of those could result in this outcome.

Han Chaoxu held Chu Zhenhua’s hand, "You just focus on recovering; let me handle it."

Chu Zhenhua bit her lower lip, her eyes reddened with emotion, "Han Chaoxu, thank you."

Xinyan lightly coughed, "I understand the situation, so I won’t stay much longer. I’ll go buy some medicinal herbs and mix the medicine, and I’ll come back tomorrow if I have time."

Chu Zhenhua quickly voiced, "Xinyan, it’s really troubling you."

After speaking, she noticed He Jinxuan waiting at the door, "Who is that?"

Xinyan pulled over He Jinxuan, "Sister Zhenhua, this is my partner, He Jinxuan."

Chu Zhenhua smiled and nodded at He Jinxuan, "Hello."

He Jinxuan raised his hand to tousle Xinyan’s hair, then looked at Chu Zhenhua, "Hello."

After some brief pleasantries, Xinyan stopped Han Chaoxu, who was about to see them out, "Second Brother, there’s no need to see us off, we’re not strangers. You should stay here and accompany Sister Zhenhua more. You’ll have to get back to training soon."

Then she whispered, "If it really doesn’t work, find an excuse to conduct a surprise check of those girls’ dormitory we talked about before."

She believed that Second Brother would surely find a way.

The kind of people who use such malicious means to harm others are truly terrifying in the performing arts troupe. If not caught, they might use the same methods to harm others.
