Everyone was stunned by Aunt Zhou's words, their mouths agape in shock, their minds completely blank.
What's going on?
Is Su Qingjiao a fake rich girl from the Qian family?
Did the person who posted about staying in a hotel presidential suite on WeChat Moments do so by shamelessly using facial recognition to get a free stay?
So now he's been blacklisted by all the companies under the Zhou Group?
That's just too...
That's the Zhou family, after all. Little do people know how many industries the Zhou Group is involved in in Luzhou. If you get blacklisted by the Zhou family, tsk, you'll be stuck with nothing.
Su Qingjiao sat there restlessly, her hands gripping the hem of her clothes tightly, her lower lip bitten until it turned white, a metallic taste of blood spreading through her mouth. So cold, so cold, her whole body was so cold.
She wanted to refute it, but she was also very clear that her argument could not withstand scrutiny.
Since Aunt Zhou dared to come, it meant she wouldn't go easy on her just because of Zhou Yi.
If she dared to utter a single word in her defense, the evidence Aunt Zhou would throw out the next second would be enough to keep her under surveillance, and her identity would be completely exposed.
Therefore, she could not and dared not stand up and say a word for herself.
This scene was far more humiliating and embarrassing than when I was wrongly accused of stealing money by the whole class back then.
Many people had already turned around to look at her, their probing gazes like poisoned knives, each one piercing her heart. She felt so uncomfortable and scared, so scared that her heart was breaking.
"By the way, I heard a rumor that Zhou Yi kindly took you in, but it turned out that you took in Zhou Yi instead?"
"Do you dare say to my face now who took whom in?"
The classroom was eerily silent; you could hear a pin drop.
Su Qingjiao bit her lower lip, not daring to stand up and answer, leaving her classmates both surprised and bewildered.
Seeing Su Qingjiao like this, Aunt Zhou felt that it was about time.
After today's events, everyone should know what kind of woman Su Qingjiao is and that she can't cause any more trouble. From now on, how Su Qingjiao conducts herself or explains herself at school is none of her business.
Aunt Zhou gave a deep, cold laugh.
Then her gaze turned to Zhou Yi, her sharp eyes softening considerably, and even her words were no longer aggressive, but rather those of an aunt showing concern for her nephew.
"Xiao Yi, please ask for leave for one class period."
"I need to talk to you about something."
Zhou Yi stood up under everyone's gaze, glancing mockingly at Su Qingjiao, who was looking down at him, before following Aunt Zhou outside.
As soon as they left, the classroom erupted in excitement.
Everyone stared at Su Qingjiao, their eyes filled with doubt and gossip, and of course, they were also discussing it behind her back.
"Seriously?"
"Was what that mature woman said just now true? This is too shocking."
"You know what, Zhou Yi's surname is Zhou, and Miss Su's surname is Su. Although she always says that she takes her mother's surname, isn't this too much of a coincidence?"
"But I still believe in Miss Su. After all, we've seen her being picked up and dropped off in luxury cars every day since she enrolled. How could a fake socialite have so much money to pretend?"
"Didn't you hear that she took advantage of Zhou Yi? Is it possible that all of these really belong to Zhou Yi?"
Thinking about it carefully, it seems possible. After all, Zhou Yi had said before that Su Qingjiao was the nanny's daughter, but he didn't believe it at the time.
Could this be the truth?
Su Qingjiao felt a chill run down her spine under everyone's gaze. After Aunt Zhou and her group walked away, Su Qingjiao trembled all over and suddenly covered her face and sobbed.
In class, Su Qingjiao had still amassed some followers. When she saw Su Qingjiao crying, her deskmate who had switched seats with Zhou Yi earlier slammed his hand on the table and stood up angrily to reprimand everyone.
He scanned the entire class and explained, "Do you guys even have brains? You believe everything people say."
"Anyway, I believe in Su Qingjiao; she's definitely a real heiress!"
"If Zhou Yi were really rich, would he need to hire someone to put on this show?"
"It's obvious that Zhou Yi guessed that parents would be invited to the school today, and he panicked, so he deliberately hired people to put on a show at the school."
It was just something that flashed through my mind and I said it offhand.
After saying it aloud, he thought about it more and more and it made more sense. He continued along this line of thought: "Didn't the counselor bring Zhou Yi's mother with her today?"
"The person is definitely still in the teacher's office. If you don't believe me, then go and confront them!"
"Let's see if the person who just talked in the classroom and left is real, or if the person the counselor found from Zhou Yi's emergency contacts is real."
Hearing him say that, the students who were initially skeptical became hesitant.
yes.
The counselor called the parents; several people outside the classroom witnessed it firsthand, so it can't be fake.
Immediately, everyone started talking at once: "No one would write a fake number on their emergency contact list, so I believe Su Qingjiao."
"Um... Now that you hear what I'm saying, I think it makes a lot of sense. The counselor can't just call a fake parent, can she? I also think Su Qingjiao is real."
"Tsk, so Zhou Yi brought in some actors today?"
"He's really something, showing off even at school."
When Hao Min heard these words, she thought these people were really stupid. No wonder they were called stupid college students online, who had never experienced the harsh realities of society.
She instinctively wanted to clarify things for Zhou Yi.
She swallowed the words back down her throat.
She was a bit chubby, not particularly attractive in class, and came from an even more ordinary family. What ability did she have to compete with others for Zhou Yi?
Perhaps only at this moment is she closest to Zhou Yi.
Everyone wants to improve their life, right?
She just wanted to secretly seduce Zhou Yi, this rich second-generation.
She glanced absentmindedly at the window, but since she wasn't sitting by the window, she couldn't see what was happening outside, nor could she see what Zhou Yi and his aunt with her powerful aura were doing.
She rested her chin on her hand, wondering what Zhou Yi was saying to his aunt right now.
Since Zhou Yi still had to attend classes, the two did not leave the school. Instead, Zhou Yi accompanied his aunt to the school convenience store to buy some snacks.
"I really miss my university days."
"To be honest, if it weren't for the old lady, I wouldn't even have had the chance to go to university. During this time, I contacted many friends abroad, and they all said that apart from staying at IUC, there wasn't much hope."
"But I don't believe it. As long as you're alive, there's always a chance."
"Forget about that, Xiaoyi, what do you want to eat?"
Aunt Zhou put aside her sadness and found a convenient place to sit and chat. The two sat side by side in the ancient-style corridor built at the school, with the snacks they had just bought placed between them.
Aunt Zhou has always presented herself to the outside world as a strong woman.
Zhou Yi knew that his aunt admired her grandmother, who was decisive and efficient and had built a huge Zhou Group, so she had been imitating her grandmother's methods and image.
