Chapter 212 Embracing the Inevitable
Perplexed by the sudden turn of events, Wen Yantong quickly realized she might have fallen into a trap when the door was abruptly locked from the outside. She hastened to the door, pounded on it twice, and called out, "Is there anyone outside? Who locked this door?!"
Unsurprisingly, there was no response; the surroundings remained eerily silent, giving no indication of anyone passing by. Wen Yantong continued shouting for a while, acknowledging the futility of her attempts. It became evident that someone had intentionally lured her into this house.
She had visited Nuanxiang Pavilion in the past to collect books, never imagining that someone with malicious intent would twist this routine into a perceived scam. Completely unsuspecting, she found herself ensnared in a trap.
Unaware of the motives behind her deceitful confinement, Wen Yantong hesitated to take impulsive actions. Thus, she could only aimlessly wander around the building, trying to discern the intentions of the person who had orchestrated this ruse.
The subsequent revelation left Wen Yantong utterly astonished. In the inner room of Nuanxiang Pavilion, she discovered a person lying on the bamboo couch.
Traditionally, the bamboo couch was reserved for students to rest on after late-night reading sessions. However, it was typically only used during the hot days of midsummer. To Wen Yantong's surprise, she observed a girl in a lotus pink dress reclining on the bamboo couch, her back facing the entrance, and suddenly everything clicked into place.
This scene felt eerily familiar to her. Ever since Wen Yantong transmigrated into this novel and learned from others that she had become a cannon fodder character, she frequently had nightmares featuring scenarios like the one unfolding before her.
In the original novel's storyline, the little cannon fodder developed feelings for Cheng Xiao but became envious of Fu Tanghuan, who was also interested in him. Succumbing to the heated manipulation of Fu Shi and others, she eventually agreed to frame Fu Tanghuan.
The initial scheme involved Fu Shi rendering Fu Tanghuan unconscious in the room. Subsequently, the little cannon fodder was supposed to fetch Fu Tanghuan's personal items, place them on her body, and then make a discreet exit.
Fu Shi intended to summon numerous teachers from the Academy, showcasing Fu Tanghuan supposedly in possession of a man's personal item to tarnish her reputation. However, the little cannon fodder was oblivious to the fact that this was only a part of Fu Shi's scheme, and her calculations also involved the unsuspecting cannon fodder herself.
After bringing her belongings into the room, the door was swiftly locked from the outside, leaving the terrified little cannon fodder in a state of panic with no way to get a response. Despite attempting to break down the door, her efforts proved futile. It wasn't until Fu Shi arrived with a group of people that the little cannon fodder found herself thrown into jail.
Subsequently, to safeguard Fu Tanghuan's reputation, Chi Jingxi discovered the truth about the little cannon fodder being a girl and reported the incident to the authorities.
Ultimately, Fu Tanghuan's reputation was preserved, but the entire Wen Residence faced execution, leaving no survivors.
This was the outcome Wen Yantong dreaded the most, and it haunted her thoughts incessantly.
The issue lies in the fact that, in the original storyline, this incident occurred around the eighth lunar month. However, it was unexpectedly brought forward to the fifth lunar month when the Academy resumed classes.
Could it be that her actions altered the course of the original plot, leading to plot inconsistencies and an accelerated timeline?
Wen Yantong felt a sense of urgency and didn't have the luxury to ponder why this event was moved up. Her focus was on finding a solution to the immediate predicament. Approaching cautiously, she turned the girl on the bamboo couch to discover, to her dismay, that it was indeed Fu Tanghuan, still unconscious—a dreaded realization unfolding before her.
Upon finding herself in this book, Wen Yantong had exerted herself to alter the course of her ending. Yet, she found herself confronted with the harsh reality that certain events were destined to unfold, regardless of her efforts.
Caught between the preservation of Fu Tanghuan's reputation and the impending doom of her Wen Residence, Wen Yantong grappled with the uncertain path dictated by fate.
Will Chi Jingxi still act the same way as portrayed in the original plot? What will Cheng Xiao do when he finds out about this matter?
Furthermore, Fu Tanghuan, being the legitimate daughter of the Fu Residence, had considerable sway. Confronted with the threat of disgrace, Prime Minister Fu Sheng, would undoubtedly employ all available means to clear her name.
In the face of these uncertainties, the vulnerable Wen Yantong found herself in imminent danger. Anxiously shaking Fu Tanghuan, she pleaded, "Third Young Lady! Quickly wake up!"
Fu Tanghuan was still unconscious, but ever since the door was locked, the individuals arranged by Fu Shi had already gone to report to the teachers. Others will be arriving soon.
Wen Yantong felt beads of sweat forming on her forehead, her anxiety growing. In her heart, she couldn't help but find the storyline quite unreasonable. How could Fu Tanghuan be inexplicably put to sleep by Fu Shi? Growing up amidst family intrigues, Fu Tanghuan, despite her kind-hearted nature, was undoubtedly aware of the schemes surrounding her.
She should have been cautious of Fu Shi.
However, as she pondered this, Wen Yantong also felt a sense of helplessness. Despite her readiness for this situation, she had also unexpectedly fallen into the same trap.
Observing that shouting failed to rouse Fu Tanghuan, Wen Yantong grabbed the chair next to her and attempted to use it to break down the door.
The chairs were all crafted from hollow bamboo and shattered into pieces upon forceful impact. The door, being solid, only displayed a minor scratch from the futile attempt.
Surveying the bamboo fragments scattered on the ground, Wen Yantong felt a sense of helplessness. If she waited for those individuals to arrive and then opened the door, she wouldn't be able to offer a satisfactory explanation, even if she had eight mouths! Moreover, Chi Jingxi was currently not present in the Academy.
If the Academy personnel took the initiative and reported her to the authorities, the situation could escalate into a major incident. Even if Chi Jingxi wanted to help, he might be unable to protect her.
The more Wen Yantong contemplated the situation, the more fear crept in. She continued to bang on the door and shout, desperately calling for help from outside.
In this tense moment, Fu Tanghuan, who had been lying on the bamboo couch, was suddenly roused by the commotion. She covered her groggy head, sat up, and weakly inquired, "What are you doing?"
Turning around hurriedly at the sound of Fu Tanghuan's voice, Wen Yantong noticed the lingering effects of the drug on her, evident from the frowning and pained expression on her face.
Hurrying over, Wen Yantong asked, "Third Young Lady, are you awake? Can you see clearly?"
Rubbing her eyes, Fu Tanghuan looked up in surprise and exclaimed, "Wen Yantong?"
Nodding hastily, Wen Yantong replied, "It's me, Third Young Lady. Listen to me first; we have been framed."
Fu Tanghuan, astute as ever, surveyed her surroundings. Her expression immediately turned cold as she asserted, "It was Fu Shi who did it."
Wen Yantong urged, "Now is not the time to pursue who did it. We need to focus on figuring out how to escape the current situation. If I am not wrong, there will be a bunch of people outside the door later. At that time, even if we were to jump into the Yellow River, we wouldn't be able to wash ourselves clean of this matter."
Fu Tanghuan held her heavy head and forced herself to wake up. "Can we not get out?"
"The door was locked from the outside," Wen Yantong explained.
Fu Tanghuan, now a little panicked, quickly scanned the room, searching for any potential hiding places. The anxiety on her face became more and more evident.
It seemed they had encountered a dead end, and the two people inside couldn't find a way to escape.
The two fell silent for a moment. Wen Yantong suddenly raised her head and said firmly, "I have a solution."
Fu Tanghuan responded quickly, "Say it quickly."
Wen Yantong took a breath before expressing her idea.
Soon, all the teachers from the Academy rushed to Nuanxiang Pavilion. Sun Qiu was at the forefront, followed by Li Boyuan, Zhao Yu, and others.
In matters related to Wen Yantong, the latter two teachers always expressed a desire to investigate. After all, Zhao Yu appreciated and recognized Wen Yantong's worth. When he heard that a student had reported that Wen Yantong had taken an unconscious Third Young Lady Fu into Nuanxiang Pavilion, he couldn't sit still and was so anxious that he only wished he could rush past Sun Qiu.
Many students followed behind, having heard the news along the way.
If such an incident truly occurred within the Academy, it would undoubtedly become a sensational topic, likely evolving into the most talked-about gossip in Chaoge.
