The temperatures became cool and chilly. Thus, all the male students in the Institute began wearing quilt jackets while the female students were dressed in colorful leggings, winter dresses, and heeled boots.

Wen Xinya took a stroll along the sidewalk of the Institute. She took a deep breath and allowed the chilly wind to fill her lungs, making her feel cool and refreshed.

“Wen Xinya!” Shen Mengting yelled in a shrilling voice, seething with exasperation and resentment. She sounded just as cold as the weather.

Wen Xinya stopped in her tracks and turned around slowly to see that Shen Mengting was standing at a short distance away from her, appearing horribly gaunt and emaciated. Her sunken eye sockets and hollowed cheeks made her eyes appear even larger than they already were. Her fair and porcelain skin had become jaundiced, and her hair was hoarse and brittle. Wen Xinya almost could not recognize her.

Staring at Shen Mengting with raised brows, Wen Xinya wondered to herself, Why is she here?

Shen Mengting had already been expelled from the Institute and was on the blacklist. Given how tight the security was at the entrance, how did she even manage to sneak in?

“You’ve already been expelled. How did you sneak into the school compound?” Wen Xinya asked, taking a step back, knowing that Shen Mengting must have had a reason for sneaking into the Institute to look for her. She was afraid that Shen Mengting might have gone through some emotional trauma and become deranged to the extent of committing terrifying acts of violence. She also did not rule out the possibility of Shen Mengting being manipulated by Ning Shuqian, who might have instigated her to harm Wen Xinya.

“You don’t need to know how I managed to sneak in. I came here especially to look for you.” Shen Mengting screeched, glaring at her maniacally.

“To look for me?” Wen Xinya scoffed with raised brows and a cold smirk.

Overwhelmed with resentment, Shen Mengting glared at Wen Xinya and said, “Wen Xinya, do you know why I’ve become like this? I was sent to the police station and put behind bars for more than half a month. I faced cunning and intimidating policemen every single day. They were just like devils who continuously interrogated me and forbade me from eating or drinking whenever I refused to comply. They even locked me up in a freezing, air-conditioned room.

Wen Xinya guffawed sarcastically. She thought that Shen Mengting should really count her blessings that the police did not subject her to physical torture in order to force her to own up to her crimes. Several nations were relentless and cruel when punishing drug addicts like her.

Greatly angered by Wen Xinya’s insensitive laughter, Shen Mengting hollered. “Wen Xinya, this is all your fault. If it weren’t because of you, I wouldn’t have ended up in such a pathetic plight. Did you know that the police sent me for rehab in a remote village just to kick my slight drug addiction? I was locked up together with other drug addicts. They were all a bunch of lunatics, lunatics…” She then covered her ears with her hands and began shrieking while shaking her head, clearly reminded of a traumatic experience.

“What has your drug addiction have to do with me? Was I the one who got you hooked onto the drugs? You were clearly the one who tried to get me addicted, but your plan backfired and you ended up getting addicted to drugs instead. How dare you have the cheek to accuse me when you’re the one at fault. Who sent you here? Was it Ning Shuqian?” Wen Xinya questioned sternly. No wonder Shen Mengting would end up in such a state. Turns out she had been sent to rehab. Although Wen Xinya had never been to rehab, she could imagine how harsh the conditions were.
