Su Xun ran up to the sixth floor in one breath, his body burning with heat. He swiped his swipe to open the dormitory door and went inside, shutting out the cold outside.
She habitually glanced at the other roommates. Zhou Qin and Liu Wei weren't there; only Wen Yanyan was sitting sideways to her in a chair, frantically fiddling with her phone, her facial expression...
Okay, it's a bit grotesque.
Although Su Xun was very reluctant to use the word "ferocious" to describe Wen Yanyan.
"Yan Yan, what did you see this time? You seem so... excited."
Wen Yanyan then came to her senses, her face still showing resentment, "I'm helping you fight back."
"Aren't there very few people holding me back now?" Su Xun asked, puzzled.
"When you left, the person who posted the message mentioned you and that uncle again in the comments, using an even more offensive tone, and then a lot of people started attacking you again."
Su Xun quickly took out her phone and opened the forum. Sure enough, everyone's attention had been drawn to Uncle He's topic, but as soon as the original poster spoke, it shifted back to her.
However, she's not in such a hurry now. This person is determined to mislead her about her relationship with Uncle He, but can't produce any solid evidence, only that pale photo. If you think about it carefully, you can see that the poster is deliberately misleading people.
Sure enough, some people have already started criticizing the poster in the comments.
A new WeChat message popped up on my phone; it was from Uncle He.
After reading all the content, a smile curved her lips, and she felt a sense of relief.
Several days ago, new promotional posters were already displayed in the school's admissions and employment office building. Hezheng Group, a leading enterprise in the city, will hold a lecture at the school on Wednesday afternoon. The chairman of the group will be present to guide graduating students on how to find employment, and a small campus recruitment fair will be held in the evening.
Hezheng Group started with shipbuilding and, under the leadership of its current chairman He Chengzheng, has gradually expanded its business. Now the group is involved in the construction and film and television industries, and in recent years it has invested heavily in a scientific laboratory, intending to enter the field of technology.
Today, the He Group has become a large-scale modern enterprise group with project investment and commercial operation as its core businesses.
For recent college graduates, working for a large corporation like the Ho Group is the best option.
So an hour before the speech on Wednesday afternoon, the venue was already packed.
Senior students took the lecture and evening job fair very seriously, while students from other years came specifically for the career guidance, hoping to prepare for their future a few years from now.
Su Xun had no classes in the afternoon, so she found a corner seat early and sat down.
At 2:40, the room quieted down. Several school leaders accompanied a middle-aged man in a suit and tie into the room. His leather shoes were shiny, and his dark, handmade suit was well-tailored and exuded the aura of someone who had been in a position of power for many years.
Su Xun looked at He Chengzheng striding in, somewhat surprised.
Uncle He, whom she usually met, was always refined and easy-going, and took good care of her, just like an ordinary neighbor.
She had never seen Uncle He in public, and he never brought an assistant with him. Several times when he picked her up, he drove himself.
And now, her aura and indifferent expression are just like those of the domineering CEOs she has written about.
So, the CEO was right beside me.
After the staff adjusted the equipment, He Chengzheng walked onto the stage precisely at 3:00 PM.
As one of the most successful entrepreneurs in S City, He Chengzheng's speech was also very engaging. The entire process was smooth and logical, highlighting the key points. He explained the current employment situation to the audience in detail, and at the end, he briefly introduced the He Group and the recruitment plan.
The students below were there with the goal of getting employment in the end. Even if they didn't go to Ho's, they still benefited a lot from the lecture. The Q&A session that followed was very lively, with everyone actively asking their questions.
He Chengzheng remained calm and patiently answered the students' questions, and soon the activity came to an end.
As he prepared to leave the stage, he readjusted the microphone, his tone becoming more relaxed and less serious than before. He slowly said, "On my way here, I asked Principal Jiang for a small favor, to allow me a few minutes at the end to clarify something with you all."
The slightly noisy venue quieted down again as the event came to an end, everyone waiting for the person above to continue.
“I’ve recently heard some rumors that I’m keeping a female freshman at your school as a mistress. That’s really unfair to her. People around me are laughing at me, saying that an old man like me is taking advantage of a young girl.”
He spoke in a relaxed tone, occasionally making a self-deprecating remark, as if he were talking about something completely ordinary, but the assertiveness contained in his words could not be ignored.
The people below all started to think to themselves. Recently, there had indeed been news of a female student being kept by a sugar daddy at the school. The female protagonist was none other than Su Xun, who was once very famous. In the past two days, the matter had been gradually escalating.
Could the man in the photo be the chairman of the He Group?
Someone secretly dug up the photos from the forum and compared them closely with the man on stage, and it really was the same person!
"For the sake of that girl's reputation, I still want to clarify here that I have been good friends with that classmate's mother for many years, and I just happened to be passing by when I picked her up that day. There's no need for everyone to speculate."
This was already extremely polite. People at the school didn't just speculate; they practically slapped the dirty label of "being kept" on Su Xun's head.
Chairman He is here to support Su Xun.
Too many students wanted to attend this lecture, but the venue had limited seating and couldn't accommodate everyone. So the entire lecture was streamed live on the school's official website, which is why those who followed the lecture saw the final clarification video immediately.
Someone took a screenshot of this part and posted it under that anonymous post, which immediately debunked the rumor.
Wait, it seems like some details have been missed.
If He Chengzheng is Su Xun's mother's good friend for many years, then just how rich must Su Xun's family be to be friends with such a wealthy family for so many years?
In an instant, everyone's perception of Su Xun changed considerably. Someone with such stunning looks and a wealthy family background was definitely a leading lady in a drama.
Meanwhile, Su Xun, whom everyone imagined to be from a wealthy family, was holding her phone and sending He Chengzheng a long message of thanks.
The night before last, Uncle He told her about his plan and asked for her opinion, which she naturally approved of. There's no better way to clarify rumors than in front of everyone, and more importantly, the speaker was He Chengzheng, which made it very convincing.
Fortunately, Uncle He was willing to help.
