"Dr. Song, I'm going back to my dorm now!" Without waiting for Song Yunzheng's reply, Lin Yue grabbed the necklace and ran towards the dormitory building.
Song Yunzheng stood there, watching her run and her hair sway as she ran. He didn't rush to call her back, but unconsciously touched the spot where she had hugged him earlier. His little wife hugging him first... it felt pretty good!
"Wow~ Yuezai, your necklace is so sparkly! Let me admire it." Back in the dormitory, Jiang Li immediately noticed the necklace in her hand.
Who sent it?
"Um...it was a gift from my uncle."
"Your uncle? Why would he suddenly give you a necklace?" Jiang Li looked at her suspiciously.
"It should be... a belated birthday present."
Afraid that Jiang Li would notice the lingering blush on her face, Lin Yue quickly turned her back and tidied the table. Sure enough, people always seem very busy when they are nervous.
Jiang Li nodded with some skepticism, then checked the price of the necklace on her phone. "Wow!" she exclaimed, her mouth agape. "Yuezai! Which direction should I kowtow to to have an uncle like this? This necklace costs 1 million!"
"Wow! That's expensive!"
She had initially thought it was just an ordinary necklace worth ten or twenty thousand yuan, which was why she accepted it so readily. But now... how many times more expensive has it become? Lin Yue suddenly felt that the necklace was burning her hand!
This price is indeed expensive for ordinary families, but for Song Yunzheng, it's nothing. He is indeed a doctor, but he is more than just a doctor.
After learning the price of the necklace, Lin Yue dared not touch it again and carefully put it away. After all, she had no emotional connection with Dr. Song and might have to return it someday.
Lately, when walking down the street, Lin Yue always feels like everyone is looking at her, pointing and whispering about something. Could it be that she's too tired from studying and her eyes are getting blurry?
"Yuezai, quick... quick, look at the class group chat! Someone uploaded your photo online!" Jiang Li, who had gone out to pick up a package, ran back into the dormitory, panting.
Seeing Jiang Li's anxious expression, and recalling the pointing fingers she had encountered on the street these past few days, a bad premonition instantly swept over her.
Lin Yue hurriedly clicked into the class group, only to find that the group had exploded with activity.
"Wow, I never would have guessed she would do something like that."
"Oh, what's so special about that? If I looked like her, I'd sell myself too, to save money for my family, hahaha..."
"That's right, rich people love women like her."
"No wonder! So many guys at school were after her, but she didn't like any of them. She only likes guys who are rich and powerful!"
The people in the group didn't care whether Lin Yue would see it or not; each one said something more offensive than the last, including many unspeakable comments.
The chat messages were so numerous that they had completely obscured the photos. Suppressing her anger, she kept scrolling down, her fingertips finally resting on those few pictures...
The person taking the photos had a very tricky angle, only shooting at her face, while Song Yunzheng was only shown as a blurry silhouette in the shot.
One photo shows her taking the initiative to hug Song Yunzheng, and the other shows her holding a necklace with a joyful expression on her face. Based on these two photos, everyone is talking about her, saying that she is being kept by someone, becoming a mistress or a mistress to a rich man!
"Don't let me find out who did it!" Lin Yue gripped her phone tightly, her knuckles turning white.
After calming down and thinking it over carefully, she realized that she had just run into Gu Chaoyan a few days ago and questioned her about whether she was Song Yunzheng's mistress. Today, she saw photos of herself being secretly taken online, misleading the entire school and causing everyone to gossip about her behind her back. How could it be such a coincidence?
"It must have been her! I'm going to find her right now and smash her head in! Let her stop talking nonsense!" Lin Yue stood up angrily and walked towards the door.
"Hey, Yuezai, where are you going?"
"Let's fight!!!" Lin Yue's angry voice echoed in the dormitory corridor.
"Huh? A fight? Isn't fighting at this time just adding fuel to the fire? Is she even going to be able to go to school? No, no, I have to stop her." Jiang Li took off after her.
Lin Yue stormed downstairs, rolled up her sleeves, and was about to confront Gu Chaoyan when she looked up and saw Li Shuhua also walking angrily toward her.
Her body trembled involuntarily. What was she doing at school at this hour? Had she heard some rumors too?
"Mom, what's wrong with you...?"
"Slap..." A crisp slap rang out, and Lin Yue's head was turned to the side. After about 5 seconds, she covered her face and slowly turned her head, looking at her mother in disbelief.
"Mom... what are you doing?" Her voice trembled slightly.
"Don't call me Mom! I don't have a daughter like you!"
Li Shuhua's sharp, piercing voice seemed to tear through the air, quickly attracting a crowd of students who whispered among themselves.
"What did I do now?"
"You still have the nerve to ask? Look at yourself! Open your eyes and look at yourself! You shameful thing! Did I work so hard to send you to university just so you could do this? Have I ever starved you? How could you do this to me?" Li Shuhua angrily smashed her phone at Lin Yue's head.
Lin Yue didn't dodge and took the hit squarely, her forehead swelling up instantly.
She stared blankly at Li Shuhua, ignoring the pain in her forehead, slowly bending down to pick up the phone. She opened it and her eyes widened in fury. Just how much did this person hate her? He had used an anonymous account to send Li Shuhua photos of her being secretly taken, along with a small caption: "The daughter you raised with so much care is being used by rich men at school, she's practically ruined." Her heart sank to the bottom…
