Around noon, Lu Huan got into a luxury car, and a photo of him was taken by a classmate at school, which became a trending topic on the school forum.

Many people believed that Lu Huan was being kept by a rich man, and for a time, several buildings were built, each a high-rise, sparking heated discussions.

Lu Huan used to have a bad reputation, and people mostly felt disgust when they mentioned her.

When Lu Huan learned of this news, Yan Shi sent her a message.

Without saying a word, I clicked into the school's forum and glanced at it. Of the ten hot posts on the homepage, six were about themselves.

When did she become the darling of the forum, attracting so much attention?

I clicked on the most popular thread, titled "S University's New Campus Beauty Was Picked Up by BY and JZ!"

The main building contains two photos of Lu Huan getting into the car, one of her profile and one of her back. Both photos are blurred, but some sharp-eyed people still recognized her.

2l: Waiting for melons!

3L: Front row selling sunflower seeds, cola, Ragdoll cats, British Shorthair cats...

4L: Damn, isn't that LH? I saw him with my own eyes at noon today!

5l: I saw it too!

...

33L: What?! I saw a Rolls-Royce on LH with my own eyes, and I even saw the other party's father!

34l: What do you look like? Do you have a photo?

35L: I didn't take a picture, but I saw it with my own eyes. LH's JZ looks old and ugly.

36l: Really? How ugly is it?

37l: I'm begging for photos!

38L: It's so ugly it's unbearable, it's an eyesore! I really don't know how LH can stand it!

39L: He must be rich, otherwise who could put up with a lousy old man!

...

300L: That can't be right. I heard that LH's family is quite wealthy. She wouldn't go so far as to sell herself!

301l: Did lh himself personally join the fray upstairs?

302l: We've caught him! Everyone come and see!

...

Even in the midst of the widespread condemnation, there was one person who spoke up for her.

However, this layer was quickly subjected to verbal attacks from others.

They said he personally went on stage to clear his name, and went on and on, and another tall building was erected.

Lu Huan was amused by the group of people who had gotten themselves involved in the gossip.

The carriage was very quiet. Gu Zhendong smelled the faint fragrance on Lu Huan's body and closed his eyes to rest.

Suddenly, a string of silvery laughter rang in his ears, and Gu Zhendong opened his eyes to look at the little woman sitting beside him.

From his angle, he could only see Lu Huan's profile.

During the meal, she drank some wine, and her cheeks flushed slightly, so pink and tender that one wanted to take a bite.

This inexplicable and impulsive emotion surged up again, and Gu Zhendong took a deep breath to suppress the inexplicable restlessness.

"What are you laughing at?"

The man beside her suddenly spoke, and Lu Huan stared into his dark eyes, stunned for several seconds.

Taking advantage of her momentary daze, Gu Zhendong asked again, "Can't you say?"

It's not that I can't talk about it; in fact, this matter is related to Gu Zhendong.

Lu Huan quite openly showed her phone to Gu Zhendong. The man glanced at it briefly and saw that most of the arguments revolved around the English letters LH and JZ, with heated exchanges.

Gu Zhendong had never been to a forum before, and only had a vague understanding of its content, leaving him with some doubts.

What is lh? And what does jz mean?

"LH is the initials of my name, and JZ means 'sugar daddy'."

Lu Huan explained the whole story to him: "It's all because you asked Secretary Kong to pick me up at noon, and someone else took a picture of it and posted it on the school forum. They started spreading rumors on the forum that I was being kept by a sugar daddy. I only found out now, and that's how things escalated to this point!"

The matter escalated for an entire afternoon, but Lu Huan ignored it, giving those people a chance to assume that Lu Huan was guilty and dared not stand up to explain, and could only act like a coward.

Gu Zhendong frowned as he listened. When he looked up, he saw that Lu Huan was not only not angry, but was even smiling. He didn't know whether to say that she was carefree or stupid.

"They said such awful things, aren't you angry?"

"I'm not too angry. They can say whatever they want, what can I do about it? No matter how nasty their words are, as long as I don't read them, that's fine!"

Lu Huan has done a lot of voice acting before, and while she has many fans, she also has many haters.

Those haters have nothing better to do than act as keyboard warriors and gossip online all day long. At first, Lu Huan was not used to it and felt uncomfortable whenever she saw those comments. But as time went on, she gradually became more indifferent to it.

Let her curse all she wants, as long as she gets the money.

Gu Zhendong disagreed with her idea; her indifference would only embolden those people online.

He was never one to be bullied. If anyone dared to offend him, he would retaliate tenfold and make them taste the same pain.

“If we let them continue, they will only say things that are even more outrageous.”

Lu Huan understood this as well, and sighed, "There's nothing we can do. This is an anonymous forum; we simply can't find out who's behind the screen posting this!"

Lu Huan faced the matter with a very optimistic attitude, and would even laugh out loud when she saw something amusing: "See? They actually said that Secretary Kong is old and ugly! If Secretary Kong saw this, she would definitely turn pale with anger!"

Gu Zhendong's eyes darkened. This sugar daddy should be him, what does he have to do with Kong Xun?

Lu Huan told this to Gu Zhendong as a joke, and the man frowned and looked solemn.

"I have a way."

"Um?"

The car stopped in front of the Lu family's house, and Lu Huan thanked Gu Zhendong: "Thank you, Mr. Gu, for bringing me back."

Gu Zhendong suddenly opened his eyes. "Your birthday is next weekend?"

Lu Huan was surprised for a moment: "How did you know?"

"I received your father's invitation."

"Ah, I see!"

Lu Huan suddenly realized that she and Ye Sangsang shared the same birthday. Lu Zhong had used the excuse of holding a birthday party for her to actually reveal Ye Sangsang's identity to everyone.

Gu Zhendong was, after all, a powerful and influential person in S City, so he must have received a birthday invitation from Lu Zhong.

She nodded, her eyes sparkling with anticipation as she looked at him. "Yes, Mr. Gu, will you be coming too?"

The invitation Lu Zhong sent him was left in his drawer; he hadn't decided whether or not to attend.

"You want me to go?"

Do you want Gu Zhen to go east?

A look of confusion flashed in her eyes. She hadn't been here long, and the only person she could call herself familiar was him.

After all, they had met several times and even exchanged money.

In the original story, Ye Sangsang attracted everyone's attention as soon as she appeared. Everyone was amazed by her appearance, while the fake heiress became the background character of the female lead and was ignored by everyone.

In the original storyline, the original owner was furious and pointed at Ye Sangsang's nose, cursing and smashing things, ruining the birthday party with her own hands.

The original owner of this body disgraced the Lu family, and Lu Zhong, in a fit of anger, kicked her out of the Lu family.

Lu Huan had no intention of ruining the birthday party; she just wanted to celebrate her birthday with her friends.

In the dim light, Lu Huan's face was flushed. She bit her lip and after a long while, she softly replied, "I hope you go."

The original owner of this body had a bad temper and went against everyone for the sake of Chu Jun, making many enemies. The only person who was good to her was Chu Han.

Lu Huan just wanted to celebrate her birthday and have a few friends sincerely wish her a happy birthday; that would make her content.

She had met Gu Zhendong a few times, and he had driven her home twice. So, if you round it up, Gu Zhendong could be considered her friend, right?

Her voice was exceptionally soft, as if she were talking to herself, but Gu Zhendong still heard it and immediately made a decision.

Lu Huan's mind was racing with all sorts of thoughts. What if he didn't want to?

She looked up at him and said, "Well, if it's inconvenient for you, then forget it."

She doesn't insist.

"good!"

"Huh?"

Lu Huan was stunned for a moment, staring blankly at him. Did he mean he was coming?

Before Lu Huan could ask, Gu Zhendong asked, "What kind of birthday present do you want?"

Birthday gift...

She asked casually, not expecting Gu Zhendong to agree at all. When suddenly asked what gift she wanted, her mind went completely blank.

Lu Huan thought for a long time but couldn't come up with a gift she wanted.

"I……"

"It's okay, there are still a few days, you can take your time to think about it."

Lu Huan got out of the car, still completely dazed.

He casually returned home and encountered Ye Sangsang coming down from the second floor.

The two exchanged a glance, and Ye Sangsang took the initiative to call her "sister".

Since the other party enjoys acting, she has no choice but to play along.

Soon, she should be able to leave the Lu family and no longer have to face them.

Lu Huan smiled and indicated that she was a little tired, so she went back to her room first.

As he passed by, a faint aroma of wine wafted over, mixed with a hint of crispness, which didn't seem to belong to Lu Huan.

Ye Sangsang remembered the posts on the forum and suddenly called out to her.

Lu Huan turned around and asked good-naturedly, "Is there anything else?"

"Sis, why are you so late coming home today?"

"Ah, I went out to eat with a friend."

"Is that Chu Jun?"

"Hmm?" A hint of confusion flashed across Lu Huan's face. How did Chu Jun get involved?

The male lead belongs to the female lead, but Lu Huan denied it, saying, "Of course not, he belongs to another friend of mine."

Ye Sangsang had heard Guo Yi mention Chu Jun's matter several times.

I heard that Lu Huan likes him very much, and it's said that the two will get married later.

"Really?" Ye Sangsang secretly pinched her palms together. "By the way, sister, did you see the anonymous post on the school forum? They actually slandered you... as being kept by someone."

"I saw it, it's just a rumor."

Is it really a rumor?

Ye Sangsang found it hard to believe. She had clearly seen the car that brought Lu Huan back downstairs just now, and it was the same car that had driven back at noon.

If she really is being kept by a sugar daddy, her parents will definitely be very angry when they find out.

Ye Sangsang smiled and said, "I knew my sister wouldn't do such a thing. It's already very late, sister, you should get some rest."

Ye Sangsang's smile was a little strange. Lu Huan glanced at her but didn't think anything was wrong, so he didn't think about it anymore and went back to his room to rest.

The next morning, before the alarm clock rang, Yan Shi sent her a message.

One after another, it was just like a bombing.

Lu Huan was woken up by the noise. She opened her eyes sleepily and glanced at the message Yan Shi had sent.

[When I logged onto your school forum this morning, I found that all the posts about you had been deleted. I was so scared that I refreshed the page several times, but I still couldn't see anything. Then I saw a post on the homepage, and guess what I found?] [Where did you go?]

Why aren't you replying to my messages?

Are you still asleep?

...

Yan sent a long string of text, but Lu Huan did not reply. In her anxiety, she bombarded Lu Huan with more than ten emojis.

Lu Huan scrolled up a few times before seeing the message from Yan Shi, and lazily typed a sentence and sent it.

What did you discover?

[Damn, you're not just waking up now? The sky is falling, how can you still be sleeping at a time like this?] Yan Shi replied almost instantly, holding her phone and watching Lu Huan's messages, and immediately sent a voice message.

[By the way, go check the forum quickly. All your posts were deleted last night, and not only that, all the accounts were blocked. Many people are using alternate accounts to post, and if they mention even half a word about you, the post and the account immediately disappear.] [Did you contact the administrator?]

Lu Huan logged into the anonymous forum and glanced at it, searching for LH and JZ, but there really wasn't a single result.

I didn't ask the administrator for help!

【How is this possible! This is clearly a high-level operation, not something an ordinary person could do. Where did you find such a capable helper?】【No, I went straight to sleep after I got home last night and didn't mention it to anyone at all...】 Halfway through recording the voice message, Lu Huan suddenly remembered that she had mentioned it to someone last night, and that person was Gu Zhendong.

The conversation on the other end was interrupted halfway through, just like listening to a story that suddenly stops at the most exciting part, leaving you wanting more.

No matter how many messages she sent, Lu Huan did not reply.

Meanwhile, Lu Huan thought of Gu Zhendong's words last night, "I have a way." Could it really be him who did it?

I opened Gu Zhendong's WeChat, hesitated for a long time, and then sent the message.

Mr. Gu, were you in charge of the forum?

It was still early, and guessing that Gu Zhendong was still asleep, Lu Huan had just put down his phone when it vibrated.

The message was from Gu Zhendong, and she quickly opened it.

He simply said "Mmm," acknowledging that he had done it.

Lu Huan instantly snapped out of her daze, her heart pounding as she looked at the incredibly simple reply.

Why would he help himself?

I drove her home twice, said I liked her voice, and now I'm helping her with something...

If we round it up, could it be that Gu Zhendong likes her?

Lu Huan chickened out; she wanted to ask but didn't dare.

I tossed and turned in bed for a while, clutching my phone, before finally sending the message.

Mr. Gu, thank you!

After sending the message, I didn't dare to look at it again. I threw my phone aside, jumped out of bed, and rushed into the bathroom.

Gu Zhendong smiled as he read the message, the image of Lu Huan's bright smile and clear voice thanking him appearing before his eyes.

After washing up, Lu Huan couldn't resist her curiosity and wanted to see if Gu Zhendong had replied to her message.

If he replied, what was his reply?

Upon opening it, I saw that the message had been sent ten minutes earlier.

I'd rather you thank me in person.

The unspoken meaning behind those words is simply, "I want to see you!"

Lu Huan instantly covered her blushing face. Oh no, her heart seemed to be beating even faster!

Damn it, why is she blushing and shy!

Kong Xun was forced to work overtime late last night, messing with S University's anonymous forum, deleting all posts and banning accounts, and didn't go to sleep until three or four in the morning.

With dark circles under my eyes, I entered the CEO's office to report on today's schedule.

Finally, Gu Zhendong suddenly asked, "Tell me, how do you keep someone by your side at all times?"

Kong Xun: ...

Author's Note: I've felt the deep love from the big boss again!

As for their wedding, it'll be soon, so don't rush it!

Goodnight everyone!

Thank you to the little angels who watered my plants with nutrient solution: Shisheng (42 bottles); Xixi and Zhizhi (1 bottle each); thank you all so much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
