Chapter 23: Resolving Rumors and Gifts
Fu Liedong received instructions and told Fu Liangxia about the tour. However, he waited with great anticipation, but only received a cold response from the other party, "Let's talk about it when the time comes."
"Sister, do you know whose tour this is? Su Xingshu! And it's his VIP ticket, the original price is 1288, but it can be sold for 5,000 per ticket in the fan club!" Fu Liedong was angry at her indifference.
Upon hearing this, Fu Liangxia put down the book in his hand and became interested: "Then why not..."
As expected of siblings, before she even finished her words, Fu Liedong seemed to know what she was going to say and quickly said, "Don't even think about it. Brother Su finally gave me a ticket. If he knew I sold it, I'd be dead."
Fu Liangxia glanced at him and said, "Who told you to sell yours? Just sell mine. Then you can say you brought a friend along."
"At worst, we can split the proceeds 50-50," she tempted.
Fu Liedong remained unmoved: "No, Brother Su will be angry."
"Then it depends on my mood when the time comes." Fu Liangxia remembered that today was the day the competition information was announced, and she had to sign up and check the schedule.
As for touring...it doesn't seem to be something that she has to do in her schedule.
When the two were discussing the tour in the car, they didn't know that the protagonist of their discussion was also mentioning them, or more precisely, Fu Liangxia.
In the Saint Lande forum, an incredibly short post was pushed to the top of the trending thread within three minutes of being posted, making one wonder whether all Saint Lande students don't need to study and just hang out on the forum.
The content of this main post is even only three words——
Su Xingshu: There is no contradiction.
Combined with another popular post right below it, it's hard not to think that this is a response to this.
The building suddenly exploded.
After all, people at F4's level had the privilege of posting under their real names, something they had never used before. The first time Su Xingshu used it, it was to clarify his relationship with a new transfer girl.
It is not to clarify any scandal that is not in your favor, but to clarify the so-called negative relationship that is not in your favor.
[Am I understanding correctly? Is Su Shao trying to protect her? Damn, this Fu Liangxia is really good at this. I wonder if she's really going to be his next girlfriend.]
"It's not impossible. Didn't someone say they saw them eating together in the cafeteria? It's just a couple's play. We're just part of their play."
【Ahhhh I don’t accept it! 】
[Oh my god, can anyone tell me who this Fu Liangxia is? How can she play games with Master Fu and still be openly defended by Master Su?]
[I don't know, I've never heard of this surname, but since he's so close to the two F4, he must have some status, maybe a politician...]
[The above person mentioned this and it reminded me of that thread that caused such a stir on the forums, but Su Xingshu never received a single response. Wasn't that guy so upset that he almost committed suicide? Tsk tsk, now that I think of him, Su Xingshu was truly cold-blooded back then. Wasn't it just because the girl wasn't a pretty girl?]
[Hey! If you don't know, don't talk nonsense! That guy had it all his own way. He paid a private investigator to investigate Su Shao's itinerary, and then he chased Su Shao until he got into a car accident and spent over a month in the hospital. It was only because Su Shao reacted quickly and avoided the fatal debris, otherwise...]
"Yes, if Young Master Su hadn't been soft-hearted and didn't expose this, he wouldn't just be expelled from school. He could even be sent to prison for intentional injury. After all, with the Su family's means, it's not easy to punish someone."
[Heh, you only care about suicide, but you don't know that man turned his love into hatred and collaborated with the Su family's rival media to deliberately create a suicide stunt to tarnish Young Master Su's reputation.]
As the replies in the forum were gradually going astray, a reply suddenly appeared and attracted everyone's attention.
[As someone who happened to witness the explosive scene yesterday, I want to say that there were actually three of them...]
[What? Tell me more? I don't need this little bit of traffic.]
[…These three, are you the one I think you are?]
"He's the only one, who else could it be? Aren't the other twins from F4 overseas? Besides President Cheng, who else could it be on campus?"
[Oh my god, is this true? You must be lying to me.]
[It's absolutely true! We were in swimming class yesterday and happened to see President Cheng carrying her by, with Young Master Su following behind. The two of them almost got into a fight over who was holding her!]
[…I was about to believe it, but your story is so fake. Everyone knows that President Cheng is cold and distant. How could he hug someone, especially someone of the opposite sex?]
[Yeah, if you're going to make up a lie, why not make it more reliable? Even if President Cheng really hugged her, it was probably out of friendship. How could he possibly get into a fight with Young Master Su? You know, they have the best relationship and have never had a quarrel over anything.]
【No picture, no truth.】
The person who broke the news earlier was very aggrieved: [Of course I took the photos, but I can't post them! My friend posted about this yesterday, but it didn't even pass the review and was directly deleted...]
"I'm a bit convinced by what you said. After all, this is a forum controlled by the Student Union. If it's really related to President Cheng, it definitely wouldn't be posted."
[Damn, what should I do if what you guys said makes me even more curious about Fu Liangxia?]
[Upstairs +1, why not go and take a look during the break.]
…
This post was followed by many echoing replies, and one could foresee what a grand occasion it would be when Fu Liangxia arrived in the classroom.
"Seeking attention to the public." In Class 20 of Senior High School, a pretty girl with long curly hair stared at the screen in her hand and sneered.
"Young Master Su is so kind. I wonder where this transfer student came from, how could he have such a good taste?"
Bai Kewei happened to have just arrived in the classroom. When she heard the murmur from the desk behind her, she looked up in confusion: "What's wrong, Qiuying?"
Xu Qiuying is the only person in the class, besides the special admissions students, who shows kindness to her. She is beautiful and generous, has excellent grades, and is also very gentle.
In Bai Kewei's heart, he is the best person after Fu Liangxia.
Just now, she seemed to hear a tone that was somewhat inconsistent with Xu Qiuying's, and suspected that she had heard it wrong, so she asked.
"Nothing, I was just talking to myself."
Xu Qiuying casually tucked up her hair and smiled at her: "I remember you seemed to have a good relationship with that forum celebrity?"
As for how Xu Qiuying discovered this, it was because Zhang Qiang had just yelled a few words yesterday about making the other party suffer, and Bai Kewei's face became serious and she ran out in a hurry.
Bai Kewei was slightly stunned. She didn't like reading forums very much. The course progress at Saint Lande was very fast, and she had to do her best to catch up and strive for the end-of-year evaluation scholarship.
——Although Bai Kewei's family is not poor and is a working class family with an annual total income of more than 200,000 yuan, this is still not enough compared to the annual tuition of 500,000 yuan at Saint Lande.
She is still a student and can only do odd jobs in places where no ID is required to earn a living on weekends, and the big money such as tuition can only be paid by scholarships.
However, Bai Kewei had vaguely heard people around her talking about it and had also quickly scanned some popular posts, so she hesitated and asked, "Are you talking about Xiao Xia?"
When Xu Qiuying heard the name, a flash of anger flashed across her eyes, but she immediately concealed it calmly and said with a smile, "Xiao Xia, you're calling her that affectionately. We really have a good relationship."
Bai Kewei felt her tone was a little strange, and just when she wasn't sure how to respond, she suddenly said, "I'm a little curious about her, but I'm worried it wouldn't be polite to go to her rashly. Could you introduce me to her?"
When she spoke, Xu Qiuying's eyes gleamed, and she looked like someone who could easily make people feel good about her.
However, Bai Kewei did not agree immediately. She said, "I need to ask Xiaoxia what she thinks."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and sat back in her seat, thus missing the other person's expression which froze for a moment when he heard her answer.
She is just a special admissions student. Shouldn't she be treated with kindness, lick her like a dog, and agree to everything? How dare she be so arrogant?
Xu Qiuying stared at Bai Kewei's back with a cold look in her eyes.
…
The world was in turmoil, but Fu Liangxia was unaware of it. She just frowned slightly when she saw the overcrowded corridor in front of Class 2.
But they all seemed to be chatting in groups of three or four, and it was hard to tell what was going on, so Fu Liangxia didn't take it to heart. It had nothing to do with her anyway, so they were probably just people who wanted to talk to Su Xingshu.
Fu Liedong was very used to it. He usually followed Su Xingshu and had even encountered being surrounded by a large number of fans. These were just small incidents.
But Su Xingshu has been studying here for a year, so there's no reason to treat it like it's the first time, right? He thought to himself, almost burning out his already insufficient CPU.
The ringing of the bell rescued Fu Liedong from his laborious thoughts. People outside dispersed, and as they passed by him, some scattered sentences drifted into his ears -
“It’s quite pretty…”
“But it’s not to that extent.”
Huh? What are you talking about?
"Hey, what are you standing there for?" Wang Ziwei came in from behind and nudged him with his elbow. "What are you daydreaming about?"
"Oh, nothing, go back to your seat." He shook his head and finally gave up thinking.
Fu Liangxia had just sat down when a cold object touched her arm, causing her to shiver and almost jump up.
There was only Su Xingshu behind her. Fu Liangxia turned around and looked at the boy who was supporting his head with one hand. Even in any random posture, he was very pleasing to the eye.
"What's wrong?"
Su Xingshu raised his hand and saw that her attention was drawn to the beautifully wrapped box in his hand. He said, "This is for you."
Fu Liangxia looked at him: "Why?"
Giving her tickets and gifts, don't tell her that Su Xingshu is really planning to pursue her.
It’s just a 35 degree favorability, not that serious.
"A reconciliation gift?" Su Xingshu tilted his head slightly, a smile on his handsome face. Fu Liangxia had to admit that when he wanted to please someone, he could almost win with just this face.
"I apologize for my previous disrespect and the trouble I caused you."
Don't hit someone who smiles at you. Fu Liangxia was stunned for a moment, then raised her hand to grab the box. The box was heavy, and the packaging was so exquisite that she almost worried that the other party had given her a complete set of jewelry like in old novels.
Especially since the other party used a very ambiguous tone: "See if you like it."
Fu Liangxia's heart was beating fast at that moment. She had rehearsed countless times in her mind what she would do if she opened the box and saw some jewelry that only appeared at auctions? Should she return it to him? But she would probably be reluctant to do so...
However, just thinking about this possibility and the countless zeros it converted into, Fu Liangxia's face turned slightly red with excitement.
“Pah.”
The box is opened.
In her expectant gaze, between the pearly white silk and petals, lay—
An old ginseng.
“…”
