Chapter 127 Otherwise, let me clarify.

After returning to school, Lin Hui felt increasingly resentful.

She used her phone's image recognition function to find Xie Yanning and discovered that he was actually a teacher at the school. She immediately curled her lip in disapproval.

Hmph, a teacher, yet he earns such a low salary and drives such a nice car. Who knows if he's embezzling money?

He even had an affair with his sister-in-law; he's a complete academic scumbag.

On Monday, she asked the school for leave, claiming she wasn't feeling well.

Once no one was in the dormitory, she got up and anonymously wrote a letter of complaint to the school, accusing Xie Yanning of academic misconduct and serious violation of professional ethics. She argued that such a person should not remain in academia and was a parasite on the academic community.

At the same time, they submitted the secretly filmed videos to some bloggers.

When submitting the post, they hypocritically praised it as beautiful and full of love, and then used a secondary account to embellish and spread rumors below.

"No, isn't this one of our school's teachers? I remember his wife didn't look like this."

The location was cleverly placed at Xie Yanning's school, as if afraid people wouldn't know where it was.

The combination of a prestigious university professor and the word "affair" is bound to grab attention.

Comments appeared quickly below.

Some people even dug up Xie Yanning's photos on the school's official website.

Su Wanwan is alright; she hasn't posted any photos on social media since the last time, and there are very few available online, so she hasn't been exposed yet.

Netizens are saying their own things, and Lin Hui is using various alternate accounts to stir up trouble.

[This must be the XX Hot Spring Resort Hotel, wow, coming to a place like this with my sister-in-law, how exciting!]

Haha, I've been to this place. Putting everything else aside, the hot springs are great for couples to enjoy together. Everyone who's been there says it's fantastic.

I told you all long ago not to be fooled by academic credentials; the difference between a beast and a professor is just one word.

To be honest, the way those two were hugging and kissing looked like something out of an idol drama, and it was actually quite beautiful.

Eating everything will choke you.

Spreading rumors is easy. Many netizens just want to have some fun, whether out of jealousy or other motives, they hurl all sorts of insults.

Netizens were very bold; some even went to comment on the school's official Weibo account.

[I heard this is a teacher at your esteemed school. Wow, she really knows how to have fun, bringing her sister-in-law along!]

[Does this woman, whose name I don't know, know that your sister is having an affair with your husband?]

Your school should provide a response.

Xie Yanning has research projects to follow up on, and she has been busy ever since she returned to school.

At noon, the school's academic affairs office found him.

"Professor Xie, there are some things I need to discuss with you."

Upon arriving at the office, the director of the teaching affairs office handed him a letter of complaint, along with a video circulating online.

"Professor Xie, we are definitely on your side, but we may need your response to this matter."

Xie Yanning was a specially appointed professor, and they knew of course that he was unmarried, but being unmarried and having promiscuous relationships were two different things.

They can guarantee academic competence, but they really don't know anything about privacy.

We need to get to the bottom of things before we can agree on a consistent story.

Today's netizens are not easily fooled.

If not handled properly, it could cause an even bigger public relations disaster.

Looking at the thin, printed letter of complaint, along with the videos that had been plastered everywhere, Xie Yanning felt a surge of anger for the first time.

"She's my girlfriend, we're in a normal boyfriend-girlfriend relationship." Xie Yanning suppressed her anger.

"We hope the school can issue a statement as soon as possible."

Since Xie Yanning said that, the school must believe him.

They quickly issued a statement on their official website to clarify the facts.

Unfortunately, netizens didn't buy it.

Why I'm not surprised at all by this result

[After looking into it, I think this person is quite capable, so I understand why the school wants to protect him.]

This is really a moral issue. Even her own sister doesn't care, so what right do you Tom, Dick, and Harry have to interfere?

[This is overstepping my bounds! Can't two women serve one man? I must say, I really like this man. Look at his nose, you know what I mean, sisters.]

The comments section is a mess.

Su Wanwan spent the entire day in the operating room today, and the night shift was chaotic and he was so busy that he barely had time to breathe, completely oblivious to what was happening outside.

She didn't find out until lunchtime the next day.

It was Yang Lewei who told her.

I forwarded the video to her.

What's the story behind such an outrageous rumor?

Yang Lewei meant well and wanted to clarify things for Su Wanwan, but after saying just a few words, she was accused of being a paid troll and even asked how much she would get paid for each post, implying that they could all make money together.

She was so angry that her heart ached.

However, it seems most of them have been deleted now, so it should be fine. Don't worry about it too much.

The school has now issued an announcement, and most of the videos on the internet have been blocked, leaving only a few scattered discussions.

Xie Yanning knew that reasoning with these netizens was pointless.

They have their own set of self-righteous logic and won't listen to anyone. Even if Su Wanwan's mother stands up now and proves that she is an only child, it won't make a difference. They will say that for the sake of the bigger picture, it's necessary to sacrifice that non-existent older sister.

The best solution is to block it.

Without an outlet for their frustrations, bored netizens will soon forget about it.

"No way, is this crazy?" Su Wanwan found it utterly absurd and was so angry she wanted to jump up and down in the room.

Xie Yanning spent the whole day trying to resolve this matter, and he had no intention of telling Su Wanwan about it.

It won't help except to anger her.

He pulled Su Wanwan into his arms and led her to sit on the sofa. "Alright, don't be angry anymore. It's not worth it. The matter has been resolved."

They're not celebrities, so no matter how good-looking they are, they don't have the star effect. I bet those netizens will forget what happened yesterday by tomorrow.

"Was it that woman at the hotel who did it yesterday?"

"I don't know if that's true, but a lawsuit has already been filed."

Xie Yanning is not a soft-hearted person.

If it were just rumors about him, he might not be so angry, but now that Su Wanwan has been dragged into it, it has crossed his bottom line.

He still remembered the perverted murderer who harassed Su Wanwan back then.

The person is still at large, which shows that they have a very strong counter-surveillance capability.

He didn't want Su Wanwan to be exposed to the public eye again.

There are too many people with dark minds in this society. Even a normal video might be met with vulgar language in the comments.

Especially things with strong sexual connotations will only further ignite the darkness within them.

"We must sue her!"

Su Wanwan was so angry that she couldn't sleep anymore.

After she calmed down, she hugged Xie Yanning, pouting, and said, "I'm sorry, I was just talking nonsense."

If she hadn't been talking nonsense, this whole thing might never have happened.

"It has nothing to do with you, don't feel guilty." Xie Yanning gently kissed her forehead. "What we say is our business, it's not a reason for others to spread rumors."

Su Wanwan nestled into his arms, finding herself in a comfortable position: "That person is just sick; if he can't have something, he wants to destroy it."

She suddenly looked up: "Or, should I clarify something?"
