Chapter 927: Xiao Chong Side Story 22_2
If the other party is afraid of early romance causing academic decline, or simply afraid of being caught by the disciplinary teacher and criticized with a parent notification, Xiao Chong can understand.
But from his discerning eye, Zheng Ying is just playing with Mi Yunzhi, in modern terms, that’s a "backup."
Normally, other people’s relationship issues don’t concern him, even if it’s about his brother and his girlfriend, he wouldn’t intervene; it’s a matter of consent on both sides.
However, since they dragged his girl into this, he couldn’t just ignore it.
If the guy wasn’t Mi Yunzhi, Xiao Chong would directly publish the couple’s date photos on the school’s bulletin board for a quick and effective solution.
Modern society has so many tools, it’s really convenient.
But since one party is his junior, he has to give some face and let him handle it himself.
Only, Mi Yunzhi hasn’t dealt with the rumor yet, and surprisingly, the usually slow-to-react-to-gossip Lin Wanwan already knows.
Lin Wanwan being coincidental, that day Han Xiaoyan asked her on QQ if she’s been seeing someone lately.
Lin Wanwan was stunned and asked who told her, she hadn’t.
Han Xiaoyan just replied that she’d heard and was asking, and if not, just forget she mentioned it.
Lin Wanwan kept pressing Han Xiaoyan to find out who told her, but she remained silent, leaving Lin Wanwan restless.
Now knowing it was truly a rumor, she didn’t mind.
However, she still told Xiao Chong: "Next time you hear things about me at school, let me know! I don’t want to be the last to know my own rumors."
Xiao Chong leaned against the window with a smile, looking at Lin Wanwan, "Alright~ as you wish."
The next day at school, Lin Wanwan suddenly brought up gossip to her deskmate.
Qi Bingqiong seized the chance to tease her and Mi Yunzhi; Lin Wanwan knew she would, as her deskmate tends to be blunt and unrestrained.
But it’s perfect; Lin Wanwan wanted to take this opportunity to clarify.
She hadn’t said anything before to avoid wrongly implicating others, but now that she knows it’s Zheng Ying spreading rumors about her, it’s only right to discuss what the other party has done.
Lin Wanwan didn’t retaliate against Zheng Ying based on suspicion, after chatting with Xiao Chong last night, she logged into QQ and directly asked Han Xiaoyan if the rumor of her relationship came from Zheng Ying and if it involved her and Mi Yunzhi.
Initially, Han Xiaoyan didn’t want to say, but under Lin Wanwan’s persistent questioning and naming, she eventually admitted.
Lin Wanwan then shared the story about Zheng Ying and Mi Yunzhi, and informed her the rumor had nothing to do with her.
Whether Han Xiaoyan believed it, Lin Wanwan didn’t know, but she definitely had to dispel the rumor.
Talking to Qi Bingqiong today is for the same purpose.
If it was about Xiao Chong, she’d admit it. The worst would be the rumor reaching the teacher, triggering a series of reprimands and parent notifications.
But that’s not the case now; why should she take the blame for others?
Just then she told Qi Bingqiong: "Don’t mix things up, how could I possibly have something with Mi Yunzhi? How many words have we spoken? He’s with Zheng Ying from Class Three, and they’re great together!
I even saw them go to a movie together before; she cozied up to him and drank from his cup. You’re close with Zheng Ying, didn’t you know about this?"
Qi Bingqiong was excited by this gossip, "Really? Zheng Ying went to the movies with Mi? Shared a drink?"
"Sure, you haven’t heard about their relationship?"
"Actually, I’ve heard bits here and there!" Qi Bingqiong, being fond of gossip, seemed intrigued.
After a while, she leaned in mysteriously to Lin Wanwan, "Let me tell you something too. Last week, when we were playing Escape Room, Zheng Ying was frightened and hid in a senior from Sophomore’s arms. This Class Three belle has quite an exciting life outside school."
Then she gave Lin Wanwan a knowing look.
Lin Wanwan felt a rush of chaos hearing this, but it wasn’t about her; she was just doing to others as they’ve done to her.
Besides, Zheng Ying fabricated rumors about her, while everything she said was witnessed firsthand.
Soon, the news spread completely among the students.
And Mi Yunzhi seemed to gain sudden boldness; one day he openly delivered afternoon tea to Zheng Ying at Class Three’s door, causing quite a stir amongst the crowd.
