Chapter 24 Rumors
Many students in the classroom haven't gone to eat yet.
Some were not hungry, some did not want to eat, so they put snacks in the table hole to satisfy their hunger. Some came just to chat, whispering in groups of three or five at their seats. They all had some snacks in their dormitories, and would eat them after evening self-study.
Su Jiaojiao didn't leave either. Xu Mengyao brought her two buns. After she finished eating, she was doing math problems. She only had half an hour for dinner in the evening, so she rarely went to the cafeteria to eat.
As soon as Wang Qian entered the room, she shouted to Su Jiaojiao, "Su Jiaojiao, your partner is waiting for you outside. I want you to go out for a while."
Object?
The classmates in the class turned their heads and looked at Su Jiaojiao in unison.
Does Su Jiaojiao really have a partner?
No way?
"Then you must be mistaken. We are students, how could we possibly have a partner?" Su Jiaojiao looked up at her and asked seriously, "Do you have one?"
In her previous life, she had at least reached the position of General Manager Su. She had been working in the business world for many years and had seen all kinds of people.
Such rumors might be a big deal for a 17-year-old high school student, but for Su Jiaojiao, it was just a drizzle.
For things like this, the more you care about them, the more excited the rumormongers will become. The more you ignore them, the more they will have to perform a solo act.
Over time, the rumors will naturally be dispelled.
"Of course I didn't..." Wang Qian retorted subconsciously.
"I believe you don't, that's why I said you were mistaken. I don't have a boyfriend either." Su Jiaojiao lowered her head and continued to work on the questions. Wang Qian didn't know what to say for a moment. Seeing that Su Jiaojiao was fine, she felt like a clown. She continued, "But the man outside said that he is your cousin and your boyfriend."
"Wang Qian, is he your cousin or your boyfriend?" Xu Mengyao couldn't stand it any longer and sarcastically said, "Su Jiaojiao already said she doesn't have a boyfriend, and you're saying he's your cousin. Are you so bored that you're spreading rumors about him all day long?"
She also heard some of the rumors in the class these days.
But she thought it was a rumor and didn't take it seriously, and didn't have time to ask Su Jiaojiao.
"I, I didn't spread rumors. There was just a young man outside who said he was looking for Su Jiaojiao and asked me to go get her." Wang Qian was clearly in the wrong and looked at Xue Yuxin for help. They were two against one, so it was her turn. Xue Yuxin understood and stepped forward and said, "Su Jiaojiao, how dare you say that your cousin isn't your partner?"
"Of course my cousin is not my boyfriend." Su Jiaojiao stopped writing and looked at her calmly, "What evidence do you have to prove that he is my boyfriend?"
Proving one's innocence is the most undesirable thing.
Whoever raises the question must prove it.
"I heard everything. Your cousin is your boyfriend. You even jumped into the river for this!" Xue Yuxin simply told her everything. Su Jiaojiao sneered, "I also heard that your mother is a mistress and destroyed other people's families. You are shamelessly proud of it and think your mother is very capable."
The classroom was quiet.
Everyone was stunned.
Oh my, is what they said true... If it is true, it would be so exciting!
"You, you're slandering me!" Xue Yuxin's face flushed with anger. She pointed at Su Jiaojiao and said, "What right do you have to say that about my mother? What evidence do you have?"
She thought Su Jiaojiao didn't know about Su Houli and her mother, and always thought that she was in the dark and Su Jiaojiao was in the light.
Who knew that Su Jiaojiao actually knew everything...
"Xue Yuxin, when you were talking about me, did you have evidence?" Su Jiaojiao asked back. Xue Yuxin said angrily, "Of course I have evidence. I'll go to your village and ask around. I'll know everything."
"Okay, go and ask around!" Su Jiaojiao remained calm and composed. "According to your idea, if we go to your mother's workplace and ask around, we'll find out if she's a mistress. Do you dare let me find out?"
No matter how arrogant and domineering Xue Yuxin is, she is still a teenage high school student.
There was no way she could be Mr. Su's opponent.
After a few rounds, Xue Yuxin was clearly defeated. She stomped her feet and ran out of the classroom: "Su Jiaojiao, don't go too far. My mother is not a mistress. You are slandering me."
The onlookers in the classroom were stunned and confused.
Xue Yuxin wants to prove that Su Jiaojiao's cousin is Su Jiaojiao's boyfriend, and Su Jiaojiao wants to prove that Xue Yuxin's mother is a mistress?
What the hell is going on!
Su Jiaojiao didn't even raise her eyelids and continued to do the questions.
People really can't eat too much.
Wouldn’t it be nice to use this time to do some math problems?
There was no more fun to watch, so the onlookers dispersed.
The tall boy sitting at the back looked at Su Jiaojiao thoughtfully. In his impression, Su Jiaojiao always liked to sit in her seat and do her homework quietly, and was not ostentatious. She was actually quite pretty, especially her clear and bright eyes and long eyelashes. When she looked at people, their eyes flickered like two small fans. She was not very white, but gave people a very healthy feeling.
For some reason, he had a feeling when he saw Su Jiaojiao for the first time. He always felt that this girl was different from others. She was too calm, too composed, and had a maturity that did not match her age.
When she was arguing with Xue Yuxin just now, she never put down the pen in her hand. In just a few words, she took control of the whole situation and made Xue Yuxin run away in panic.
Seeing him lost in thought, the short, fat boy sitting next to him followed his gaze to Su Jiaojiao, who was sitting diagonally across from him, and jokingly said, "What's going on? Squad Leader Chen has also fallen for a woman he doesn't like. What's so good about a girl like Su Jiaojiao? If you want to pursue someone, go after Xu Mengyao, who's right beside her. Xu Mengyao is not only beautiful, but also comes from a good family and is cheerful and generous."
"Don't talk nonsense." Chen Yi retracted his gaze, took out his math textbook, and started doing the exercises. "Commissioner Wu, hurry up and review. You have an exam next week."
Wu Peng stuck out his tongue and asked Chen Yi while searching for his homework book, "Do you think Su Jiaojiao has a boyfriend?"
"Go ask her." Chen Yi didn't even raise his head.
"I'm bored, so I go to find out about these things." Wu Peng suddenly lost interest in these things about girls.
Liang Kun stood at the school gate and waited for more than half an hour, but Su Jiaojiao didn't come out.
Then the bell for evening self-study rang, and the campus was quiet. No one was walking around. The street lights at the school gate lit up one after another, gently and vaguely, lengthening his lonely figure. He knew that she would not accept him easily.
But he was not discouraged, he just wanted to be good to her.
Xue Yuxin was so angry that she skipped evening self-study and asked for leave to go home.
Gao Meifeng had not returned from overtime work yet. She was lying alone on the bed in the rental apartment. The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. Why did Su Jiaojiao say that her mother was a mistress in front of so many people... Her mother was not a mistress.
It was Su Houli who took the initiative to show goodwill to her mother.
Her mother told her that they were colleagues with a good relationship and that Su Houli had a family, so she shouldn't think too much about it.
Su Houli was considerate and caring towards her mother, and was even nicer to her. He even accompanied them shopping for groceries. She had also thought how nice it would be if he was her father, but unfortunately, he was someone else's father, not hers.
Her father is no longer alive and she will never see him. If her father were still alive, she would not be humiliated in public.
As she thought about it, she couldn't help but burst into tears.
