Chapter 6 Chapter 6 "She is kept by your uncle!"...

The next morning, Yao Yingxia woke up at six o'clock on time. Even though she had decided to sleep in today, she couldn't resist the habit developed by her long-term biological clock.

She stared at the ceiling for a while, trying to confirm again that she was really fired and it was not an illusion caused by excessive stress.

There was no need to rush to school now, so she closed her eyes again, feeling a sense of peace of mind, and slept until nine o'clock, when she was woken by the ringing of the phone.

The caller was Jin Ruyi. Yao Yingxia picked up the phone and heard her chattering, "Xia Xia, why didn't you come to school? I sent you a message, but you didn't reply. Are you feeling unwell? Something big happened at school. Did you know? Zhao Xiaohui was expelled, and Hou Wenbin was suspended. Their disciplinary notices are posted on the bulletin board."

Yao Yingxia listened in amazement, finding it unbelievable. How could such a sudden change of circumstances lead to such retribution? Could she continue attending school then?

Yao Yingxia was instantly excited. She quickly washed up and ran downstairs. She could still catch her third class if she went now. Just as she was about to leave, she heard Shen Xingchuan's voice: "Little niece, come over for breakfast."

He was wearing a black knitted sweater and was sitting in the restaurant drinking coffee with a laptop next to him, seemingly still working on his work.

Yao Yingxia said "I'm not hungry" and went to open the door, but found that she couldn't open it no matter what. Shen Xingchuan had the highest authority over this electronic door and could turn on the child lock function. As long as he didn't unlock it, Yao Yingxia couldn't go out.

This wasn't the first time he'd done this, and Yao Yingxia was still furious. Why was he so obsessed with her meals? Even her mother wasn't this outrageous.

However, Yao Yingxia turned around and went back to the restaurant. There were already seven or eight breakfast dishes on the table.

She suppressed her temper and drank a bowl of porridge and ate a thick fried egg. Then she put down her cutlery and said to him calmly, "I'm done eating. I'm going to school now."

Shen Xingchuan smiled: "I'm late anyway, so I can choose another one."

Knowing that Shen Xingchuan would not give up until he achieved his goal, she ate another shrimp ball and went to open the door without saying goodbye to him. Sure enough, the door could be opened.

When the driver in the yard saw her come out, he quickly started the car. As soon as she got in the car, she saw Shen Xingchuan appear next to the driver's seat.

The driver, Lao Zhao, rolled down the window and asked, "Mr. Xiaochuan, are you going to use this car today?"

Shen Xingchuan had already opened the car door: "You have today off, you can go home."

He seemed genuinely free. Yao Yingxia closed her eyes and pretended to sleep, intending to continue pretending to sleep all the way until she heard him ask, "Are you happy that you don't have to see those annoying guys at school anymore?"

Yao Yingxia finally opened her eyes and looked at him. Shen Xingchuan had never given silently. Everything he did was to make people know clearly that they were grateful for his kindness and would remember his kindness.

Only then did Yao Yingxia realize why even Hou Wenbin was suspended. It turned out that he was the one who took action personally.

Yao Yingxia just couldn't understand why Shen Xingchuan would do this given their bad relationship. Then she thought, maybe Shen Xingchuan was just doing a favor for his mother.

Thinking this way, it made perfect sense. She felt relieved and finally said, "Thank you."

She didn't sound very grateful. His little niece never had any conscience.

Just as Shen Xingchuan was about to make a few more teasing remarks, Yao Yingxia had already lowered her head and fished out her cell phone. She opened the dialog box and saw that they were all messages from Jin Ruyi.

The top few messages were pretty much the same as the morning call, and the ones that followed were all screenshots. She clicked on the first one and scrolled down, which showed the chat history in the gossip group that Jin Ruyi was in.

"Oh my god, shocking news, Zhao Xiaohui was expelled!" This message was released at 6:45 in the morning, and he should be one of the first people to arrive at the school.

The group instantly became lively.

"Is this true?"

"Impossible? He's done so many things before and he wasn't fired."

"Who told you this? Is the source reliable?"

Soon that person sent a picture of the disciplinary notice on the bulletin board.

Zhao Xiaohui is usually domineering and many of his classmates have suffered from him, and are now gloating over his misfortune.

"Hahahahaha, so satisfying!"

"He deserves what he has today!"

"God has eyes!"

Someone else responded immediately: "Hasn't Hou Wenbin always protected him? Why is he willing to take action this time?"

"He went too far and alerted the police, so there's nothing Hou Wenbin can do."

"I don't think so. There must be something bigger to come."

"Explore again! Report again!"

Next is a screenshot taken around eight o'clock.

"Damn, this is unbelievable! Hou Wenbin has also been suspended!"

“???”

"Is it authentic???"

"If it's true, I'll treat the whole class to milk tea today!"

"If it's true, I'll treat the whole class to a barbecue today!"

"If it's true, I'll treat the whole class to a hot spring bath today!"

Seeing more and more people joining the group, that person quickly replied: "It's true, I'm going to the office to deliver my homework and listen to the teachers' discussion."

The atmosphere in the group instantly became more heated. Hou Wenbin has always had a hot temper and likes to confuse right and wrong. He will protect whoever's family gives him the most money. He is hated by everyone in the school.

"What's the reason?"

"Go and find out!"

After a while, someone replied, "I heard that it was because of what happened yesterday. Principal Zhang is very dissatisfied with him."

"Zhao Xiaohui wrongly accused someone of cheating. What does it have to do with Hou Wenbin?"

"What else did Hou Wenbin do yesterday?"

"I heard he's been pressuring Yao Yingxia to reconcile."

"Could it be that Yao Yingxia has some background?"

"Do you really have such a strong background that Hou Wenbin would call you in and criticize you every day? I once went to deliver some documents and listened at the door for a while. You have no idea how foul-mouthed Hou Wenbin is."

"Hasn't it been rumored that Yao Yingxia is being kept by someone? Could it be that she's hooking up with a big shot?"

"What are you talking about without any evidence?!" This was said by Jin Ruyi.

"How can you not have any evidence? I saw her coming to school in a LVN car with my own eyes. Do you know how much that car costs?"

Shen Xingchuan noticed her increasingly grim expression from the corner of his eye and asked, "Who made my niece angry again?"

Yao Yingxia didn't say anything, so he didn't know that he was the instigator. One of Shen Xingchuan's hobbies was buying cars. There were more than a dozen cars parked in the garage, each one more stylish than the other.

She took a deep breath and continued reading.

"Is there anyone who can tell me who is supporting Yao Yingxia?"

The gossip atmosphere in the group instantly reached its peak, with people saying all sorts of things, but they were all groundless.

Until someone casually said, "Stop guessing, I know who is keeping her."

Then the words "Hurry up and say it!" were all over the screen.

Yao Yingxia's curiosity was also aroused for a moment. She didn't even know that she was being kept by someone, and now the rumors were so convincing that she wanted to see who her "sugar daddy" was.

Yao Yingxia flipped the page and saw a screenshot of a group chat in another group. Someone nicknamed "Zhao Xiaohui is brilliant" had posted the following message in the group: "Holy crap! Turns out Yao Yingxia is being kept by Shen Xingchuan!"

"Shen Xingchuan from Chuanhe Group?"

"Zhao Xiaohui is brilliant" replied: "Who else could it be? I'm really screwed this time. I won't say anymore. I'm going to report to the police station."

For a moment, Yao Yingxia doubted that she could not read. She read the name over and over again before she was finally sure that she was not mistaken.

Shen Xingchuan, who was driving, suddenly heard a curse: "Bullshit!"

His hand shook, and the car swayed, almost hitting the guardrail next to it. Shen Xingchuan quickly straightened the steering wheel, but his heart was difficult to calm down. He tried his best to endure it, but he couldn't help laughing out loud.

The laughter seemed to resonate with his chest, and it was particularly mellow and transparent. Yao Yingxia only felt more irritated and turned to look at Shen Xingchuan: "What's so funny?"

He was almost laughing to tears, and even his broad shoulders were shaking.

She seemed even angrier.

Shen Xingchuan forced himself to stop laughing. Just as he was about to speak, she interrupted him firmly: "Don't talk to me. You're annoying."

Shen Xingchuan started laughing again.

This guy is really a psychopath and seems to enjoy being scolded. She was just too polite to him in the past.

Shen Xingchuan kept laughing until Yao Yingxia got off the car. He didn't expect his little niece to be so impatient. In fact, this is a good thing, so that she doesn't have to hold back her anger all day and get sick.

I just don't know why she is angry today?

It was already class time and the square was empty. Yao Yingxia quickened her pace, trying to catch up with the physics class, but she vaguely felt someone following her.

She paused and looked back, only to see Shen Xingchuan's ghost lingering around.

At this point, she was already a little overwhelmed by the rumors and didn't want to have anything to do with him anymore. She asked in a very aggressive tone, "Why are you following me?"

Shen Xingchuan spread his hands: "I didn't follow you, I came to school for other things."

At this moment, Xu Lang, who was sitting by the window in the Grade 12 teaching building, spotted the man in the square and nudged his deskmate: "Hey, look, is that your uncle?"

Shen Qingyuan originally thought he was talking nonsense. How could Xu Lang know his uncle? Besides, how could his uncle appear in the school?

But unable to resist Xu Lang's repeated insistence, Shen Qingyuan finally looked out the window and saw Shen Xingchuan.

He really is his uncle.

Shen Qingyuan was quite familiar with the person standing next to him at this time. They would meet at occasional family gatherings. Shen Qingyuan would call her sister, but other than that they had no other interactions.

Shen Qingyuan was confused: "How do you know my uncle?"

Xu Lang chuckled: "Not only do I know your uncle, I also know his shocking secrets."

Even if Shen Qingyuan was completely oblivious to what was happening outside, he became interested when it came to his family: "I'm all ears."

Xu Lang said with great joy, "You know Yao Yingxia, the famous beauty in the school, the one standing next to your uncle."

Xu Lang's next words were like thunder: "She is being kept by your uncle!"
