Chapter 13 Bang bang bang!
Su Muzhe sighed helplessly, "Alright, alright, little ancestor. But...if anything happens, please feel free to contact me."
After hanging up the phone, Pei Heng walked back to the bedroom in a good mood and threw himself into the soft single sofa.
Shen Shi followed in and sat down next to him.
The summer afternoon sun shines in through the gaps in the curtains.
Before Pei Heng could react, Shen Shi leaned gently with her flexible waist, and snuggled into Pei Heng's arms. She even skillfully put her arms around his shoulders and hugged him tightly, and he could smell the fresh and clean scent on his body.
Pei Heng's body froze instantly, as if he had been hit in the acupoint.
"Why are you hugging me?"
Shen Shi's cheek was pressed against Pei Heng's chest, and he could feel the other's somewhat rapid heartbeat, and his heart felt soft.
"Because I like you."
Pei Heng's ears turned red, he still couldn't adapt to Shen Shi's directness.
He muttered something under his breath, but subconsciously raised his hand and patted Shen Shi's back.
Shen Shi raised his head, rubbing the tip of his nose against Pei Heng's chin, his eyes were tender, and his voice became softer, "Ah Heng, I want to kiss you."
Pei Heng's heart skipped a beat and he glared at him, "I told you not to."
"Chen Shi, be more reserved."
Rejected, Shen Shi lowered his eyelashes and sighed silently.
Pei Heng looked at him like this, and the awkward feeling came back.
He awkwardly stretched out his arms and gently hugged Shen Shi back, complaining softly.
"Chen Shi, it's not me who's chasing you. Why... are you asking for so much?"
The person in his arms paused slightly, then hugged him back tighter, buried his face deeply in the crook of his neck, and silently curled up the corners of his lips.

Perhaps it was because Pei Heng's side was too calm that Xue Shen became restless.
Instead of the expected apology or show of weakness, he only received intensified support and questioning of him on the forum.
He lost his patience and sent a message directly to Pei Heng.
[Be smart and apologize proactively. This matter can still be resolved amicably. Making a scene will do you no good.]
Pei Heng was curled up on the sofa playing games when his phone vibrated. He glanced at the message from an unfamiliar number.
He tapped the screen twice and replied crisply:
【No.】
Then, he quit the game and opened a document that Chen Yu had just sent him, which clearly listed the IP addresses of those who posted the rumor.
Pei Heng was still busy playing games, but his fingers moved quickly, and he took a screenshot of the evidence and posted it, along with Xue Shen's threatening text message, to the most prominent public section of the campus forum, directly tagging Xue Shen, one of the forum administrators.
【Do you know what real school bullying is】
The post immediately went viral.
[Holy crap! This is the real deal! The administrator is the one spreading rumors!]
[I feel bad for Miss Pei! Miss Pei, come and chat with us for a bit~]
[Why did Xue Shen start a fight with the freshman? What’s his intention?]
I know! I was there on orientation day, and Xue Shen took sides! Pei Heng and Shen Shi ignored them!
[This wave supports the strict investigation of Xue Shen's abuse of power.]
When Xue Shen saw this post, he couldn't believe his eyes.
Pei Heng actually sent it out like that?!
He was so angry that he wanted to delete the post, but he found that Pei Heng's post was pushed up by countless students. He had the authority to lock the post, but he didn't dare to force it in the face of public outrage.
He called directly and started yelling angrily as soon as the call was connected.
"Pei Heng! How dare you hang me up! You know my dad..."
Pei Heng moved the phone a little further away from his ear and waited for the roaring to subside before interrupting him seriously.
"Wait a moment, Minister Xue."
Xue Shen was startled by the sudden serious tone and frowned subconsciously: "What's the matter?"
Pei Heng said seriously, "Turn up the volume on your phone to the maximum first."
Xue Shen didn't understand why, but for some unknown reason he turned up the volume of his phone to the maximum, put it close to his ear, and asked cautiously.
"Okay! What are you going to say?"
Pei Heng slowly placed his cell phone in Zhou Jingming's precious iron basin and covered it with the lid.
Next second.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The knocking sound exploded in Xue Shen's ears like thunder, making his eardrums buzz and his whole head feel dizzy.
Xue Shen was so shocked that he almost threw his phone away. His ears were buzzing and his vision was black. He jumped up, covering his ears and yelling at the phone.
"Pei Heng! Don't be so shameless!"
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Bang! Bang!
Xue Shen: “…”
He felt like his eardrums and nerves were being tortured. He couldn't bear it anymore and hung up the phone.
But my heart was still beating wildly and my ears were filled with sharp tinnitus.
Xue Shen slumped in his chair, and it took him a while to come back to his senses. He immediately opened the forum and wanted to use his administrative authority to forcibly delete all the posts.
Then he discovered with horror that only Pei Heng's post criticizing him was still hanging high on the homepage. Even the rumor-mongering posts that he had previously authorized had all disappeared!
What happened? Who did this?
Before he could be shocked, a new email notification popped up in the lower right corner of his computer. The sender was Yan Ke.
Xue Shen's heart tightened, and he had a bad feeling.
He opened the email tremblingly, and inside was a huge zip attachment with the title: [Suggestions for Paper Revisions].
He quickly downloaded and unzipped it.
When you open the document, dense red comments instantly fill the entire screen.
"The logic is confusing and the data is wrong."
“The arguments are weak and the support is insufficient.”
“The conclusions are hasty and lack depth.”
…
Xue Shen’s eyes went dark and he almost fainted.
He had spent months on this paper, and he was smug at first, thinking it would get a high score and even be published...
Looking at Professor Yan's attitude now, it seems that he almost wants him to overturn and rewrite it.
He trembled with fear and replied to Yan Ke's email: [Professor Yan, why did you suddenly ask for... a major change?]
This is completely asking him to meet the standards of a graduate student!
Yan Ke’s reply was quick.
You seem to have a lot of energy and plenty of free time. Instead of using it to bully your classmates and gossip, you might as well focus on revising your paper.
[Please send the revised draft to my email before next Monday.]
Xue Shen: “…”
He stared at the words on the screen, feeling exhausted.
That day, the dazed Xue Shen finally understood Liao Dong's advice.
However, it was too late.
