Many female classmates were red with jealousy. Soon after, a rumor began to spread through the school, claiming that Jiang Mianmian had used her title as school belle to climb her way up, becoming Jiang Tianci's girlfriend. She even arrived at school in his family's luxury car, utterly shameless!
Qian Xiaoguo was furious when she heard this and wanted to confront those who spread the rumors. However, Mianmian stopped her, "How can your mouth win against so many people?"
"I can't believe you're not worried. You don't know how nasty they're being. I'm about to explode with anger," Qian Xiaoguo's eyes were red with rage.
"The pure will remain pure. Don't pay attention to it. In a few days, no one will mention it anymore," Mianmian felt that such baseless accusations didn't need to be addressed. In a few days, no one would remember. With so many new things happening, who would remember so much?
"You're too naive!" Qian Xiaoguo felt wronged on her behalf.
Mianmian still didn't want to clarify anything. Besides, who would listen even if she did? Silence was the best approach.
But Qian Xiaoguo didn't think so. She worried about Mianmian. Mianmian smiled and said, "How about this? If the rumors persist in two days, I'll ask my father to donate a building to the school. Then, let's see what they say."
Qian Xiaoguo finally broke into a smile, satisfied. "Okay, you said it."
"I said it." Mianmian disliked overly complicated matters and preferred simple, even forceful, ways of solving problems.
The teacher arrived, and the two quickly sat upright and listened attentively to the lesson.
...
Inside the old house, Yun Bujun was still sleeping. Someone opened the door and entered, carrying a breakfast. Zhou Hao asked, "Brother Yun, did you spar all night again yesterday?"
Yun Bujun sat up, rubbing his forehead, and softly replied, "Mm."
"This won't do. What if your body breaks down? I brought you breakfast, eat it first." Zhou Hao placed the breakfast on the table beside the bed.
Yun Bujun took it and began to eat heartily.
"Oh, something big happened at your school yesterday. Your position as school hunk was snatched by some effeminate pretty boy. The competition was fierce," Zhou Hao also frequented the forum of Yun Bujun's school, as he was often mentioned there.
"You're so boring. What kind of nonsense is that?" Yun Bujun said speechlessly and continued eating his pancake.
"Hehe, it's that young lady, your school's belle. You were the school hunk, and now that someone has taken your place, they've put her and the new school hunk together. It's rumored they're dating secretly, and they even took the same car to school this morning," Zhou Hao said.
Yun Bujun's eating paused. He looked coldly at the guy opposite him. Zhou Hao was startled and nervously asked, "Wh-what's wrong?"
"Where's the post? Bring it here for me to see," Yun Bujun extended his hand.
Zhou Hao quickly found the news and handed it to him. Yun Bujun looked at the two photos on it, a shadow flashing in his eyes. His slender fingers clicked to go back, and there was the latest news about the two secretly dating and Jiang Mianmian riding the school hunk's car. In short, Jiang Mianmian was thoroughly slandered.
Yun Bujun placed the half-eaten pancake on the table and picked up the computer to start operating. A few minutes later, the school forum was hacked. All the messages disappeared, leaving only a bare description.
"Holy cow, Brother Yun, is this necessary? You don't actually like that young lady, do you?" Zhou Hao asked in surprise.
