Chapter 267 Apology



Qiu Shui is being kept by someone?

The private room suddenly became quiet.

Everyone present, you look at me and I look at you.

"Being kept? Impossible. I don't think Qiu Shui is that kind of person. Could it be a misunderstanding?"

Xiao Ying and Qiu Shui’s relationship cannot be said to be very close, but after all, they were classmates for a year. The relationship is still okay.

When he was in his third year of high school, Qiu Shui’s personality could not be described as introverted, he was a loner.

In class, I can only talk to a few people.

Xiao Ying is one of them.

When they met at the Watch Family a few days ago, Xiao Ying felt that Qiu Shui was like a different person.

The appearance has not changed, but the temperament has changed, and the personality seems to have changed as well.

Become more cheerful and confident.

This kind of change occurs not only because of the system, but more because of the pressure of life.

Qiu Shui used to work two or three part-time jobs a day to earn tuition fees.

I did this for four years.

Even the most introverted person can become cheerful and talkative because of work.

Everything is forced by life.

Xiao Ying didn't believe that Qiu Shui, who was so cheerful and confident, would be kept by someone.

"I also think it's impossible. After all, I remember that Qiu Shui seemed to be quite arrogant when we were in school."

"Yeah, yeah. At that time, he didn't play with us much. He looked like a very proud person, so I didn't think he would do anything like a gigolo."

Some other classmates also spoke up for Qiu Shui.

It's not that their relationship is that good.

However, although Qiu Shui was a little withdrawn at that time, he never refused when any classmates in the class needed his help.

So even though Qiu Shui is a loner, many people in the class still think he is a good student.

Later, after Qiu Shui's parents got into trouble, many people in the class felt sorry for him. At the last party, many classmates invited him to join the party.

But he didn't come.

"It's impossible. You all know that his parents died after he graduated from high school. Without money to continue his studies, he had to find a rich man to rely on. It's a pity that the story was posted online. The school expelled him."

Yang Kun shook his head and said with some gloating: "What a pity, he was about to graduate. In the end, he was expelled. These four years of college were wasted. Such a grown man, running away to eat gigolo, it really brings shame to us men."

In fact, there is no major conflict between Yang Kun and Qiu Shui.

However, the Qiu Shui incident did cause quite a stir at the university in Kyoto.

A few people in Yang Kun's class somehow found out that Qiu Shui was his classmate.

So, secretly, he laughed at Yang Kun.

Some people also speculated whether Yang Kun was one of Qiu Shui's financial backers.

Although later Yang Kun directly asked someone to teach those students a lesson for speaking without thinking and making up stories.

However, this matter is not so easy to let go.

Yang Kun was preparing for an interview at his current company at that time, and was almost abandoned by that company because of those rumors.

Fortunately, his aunt-in-law also worked in that company.

He also had some friendship with the interviewer who interviewed him at that time.

He also survived.

However, because of this, Yang Kun put the blame on Qiu Shui.

After all, if he hadn't been so ignorant, he wouldn't have implicated himself.

"Yang Kun, you're going a bit too far."

Xiao Ying didn't know whether Qiu Shui's kept man was true or not.

But she looked down on Yang Kun for belittling Qiu Shui in front of so many people.

Even if Qiu Shui is really being kept by someone, so what.

That's their life choice. As long as they don't break the law or violate moral bottom lines, there is nothing to blame them for.

"What did I say wrong? Didn't you just say that he found a man? Squad leader, the man he found couldn't be an old man? Judging from his appearance, he probably just relied on his young body to make some money."

What Yang Kun said was really too much. He directly compared Qiu Shui to a duck.

The others present couldn't listen any more.

Even the three female classmates who were trying to please Yang Kun just now had stiff expressions on their faces.

They were all classmates, and Yang Kun and Qiu Shui didn't have any deep hatred when they were in school.

Yang Kun slandered and belittled Qiu Shui in front of so many people, which made everyone present feel that he was not a person worth making friends with.

After all, Yang Kun was able to slander Qiu Shui in front of them.

They can also slander them in front of others.

Even an outsider like Mu Ziyang couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help but say, "Yang Kun, he is your classmate after all. You are really going too far by saying that."

However, Yang Kun didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said.

"Qiu Shui has fallen into depravity himself, and you won't let me say anything?"

Just then, the door of the private room opened.

Qiu Shui just happened to hear what Yang Kun said.

"I let myself fall? Come on, tell me how I let myself fall."

Qiu Shui didn't expect that he came here happily.

As a result, as soon as I entered the door, I heard Yang Kun saying bad things about me.

When Lou Yuchen, who was standing behind him, heard what Yang Kun said, his face instantly darkened.

"Qiu Shui? You're here."

When Xiao Ying saw Qiu Shui and Lou Yuchen coming, she stood up immediately.

He greeted them enthusiastically, "Come on, take a seat. We're waiting for you."

"Sorry, I'm late."

Qiu Shui nodded towards Xiao Ying, then he and Lou Yuchen walked directly to the chair opposite Yang Kun and sat down.

Everyone else looked at Qiu Shui and Lou Yuchen in a daze.

"Are you Qiu Shui?"

A male classmate sitting next to Qiu Shui asked uncertainly.

"It's me. How come you don't recognize your old classmates after not seeing them for four years?"

Qiu Shui smiled faintly and made a joke to the other party.

"How is that possible? It's just that you've changed so much. You're really different from before."

The male classmate looked at Qiu Shui, who had an elegant temperament and whose every move exuded grace and nobility.

It is difficult to associate him with the previous lonely, taciturn and extremely ordinary Qiu Shui.

Another male classmate echoed: "That's right. We haven't seen you for four years. You've changed so much that we can hardly recognize you."

Qiu Shui smiled but said nothing.

After all, he himself has changed a lot, and he knows it.

"By the way, this is your boyfriend, right? I just heard from the monitor that you found a boyfriend and he's very handsome. We thought the monitor was joking with us, but it turned out to be true."

A female classmate smiled and looked at Lou Yuchen, then looked at Qiu Shui, and sighed, "This guy is really good-looking. He is a perfect match for you."

Another female classmate looked at Qiushui and Lou Yuchen and couldn't help but smile, "I never thought that one of our male classmates is looking for a husband. And she found such a handsome husband. Qiushui, how did you two meet?"

The third female student was full of excitement and curiosity. "Yes, yes, please tell us about your love story. I am so curious."

The three female classmates' fujoshi attributes can no longer be hidden and are completely exposed.

Faced with the three enthusiastic female classmates, Qiu Shui was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help laughing.

Qiu Shui remembered that when they were in school, these three female classmates liked to read some BL novels.

I pair up good-looking boys in my class and from other classes all day long.

I even wrote fan fiction about other people in private. Circulate it secretly in the class.

At that time, many female students in the class were watching it, and quite a few male students were also watching it.

When the teacher found out about this, he called all three of them and gave them a good scolding.

Unexpectedly, four years later, their hobby has not changed.

Lou Yuchen didn't expect that Qiu Shui's classmates were so enthusiastic.

"I say, you three, please restrain yourself a little."

A male classmate couldn't stand it anymore, "Aren't you afraid of scaring Qiu Shui and his boyfriend?"

"Qiu Shui and the others are not as timid as you." The female classmate sitting next to Yang Kun asked Qiu Shui excitedly, "Qiu Shui, what's your boyfriend's name?"

Qiu Shui looked at Lou Yuchen and said, "Lou Yuchen. Lou means pavilion, Yu means wing, and Chen means star."

"Lou Yuchen?" The female student who asked the question repeated Lou Yuchen's name in her mouth, and then said to Lou Yuchen with a smile: "This name is really nice, and it suits your appearance very well."

"Thank you." In fact, Lou Yuchen doesn't like people talking about his appearance. But although this female student was very excited, her eyes were very sincere. Besides, she was Qiu Shui's classmate, so Lou Yuchen accepted her praise.

However, Yang Kun, who was standing by, immediately attracted everyone's attention when he saw Qiu Shui and Lou Yuchen come in.

The female classmate who was trying to please him just now turned her gaze directly to Qiu Shui and Lou Yuchen.

I suddenly felt uncomfortable.

"Tsk, what do you mean by a good match? He's just a gigolo. Qiushui, I want to ask you, does your boyfriend know that you were previously kept by someone?"

"Yang Kun, what nonsense are you talking about?" Xiao Ying glared at him. How could this guy say these things in front of Qiu Shui’s boyfriend?

"I'm talking nonsense? Ask him if I'm talking nonsense." Yang Kun was fearless at this time. He was sure that Qiu Shui would not dare to refute him. After all, it had been a long time since Qiu Shui was kept. But it did happen.

"So, when you said that I was self-degrading, you meant that I was being kept by someone?" Qiu Shui didn't expect that this incident of being kept by someone would still be mentioned even after such a long time.

The culprit behind the sponsorship incident had been sent to prison by him.

This matter was also clarified on the Internet.

Yang Kun actually talked about this in front of so many classmates.

Did he live in a place without Internet access before?

"Come on, speak up. Why don't you say anything? Are you feeling guilty?" Yang Kun seemed to have found something against Qiu Shui, and his attitude became more and more arrogant.

He said directly to Lou Yuchen: "I'm telling you, although Qiu Shui is my classmate. But I can't go against my conscience and watch you get cheated by him. Let me tell you, Qiu Shui was kept by someone when he was in college. Later, the matter became a big deal, and Qiu Shui was expelled from the University of Science and Technology. Brother, you have to be discerning when choosing a man!"

After Yang Kun finished speaking, Lou Yuchen's face turned dark. The air pressure all over my body is terribly low.

I thought he knew Qiu Shui's "true face" and was furious.

However, Lou Yuchen's face was as cold as ice, and his eyes were as cold as a pond as he said to him: "Do you know that slandering others is against the law?"

Yang Kun's expression froze. "What do you mean? Do you think I'm lying? I didn't make this up. At the time, he was being kept by someone, but someone took a photo of him and it became a hot topic. If you don't believe it, you can ask him. Or check it out online yourself."

Qiu Shui said expressionlessly, "Then do you know where the person who uploaded the information and photos of me being kept by someone is now?"

"How would I know? Qiu Shui, don't change the subject. You are a man, so you should take responsibility for your actions."

"Heh." Qiu Shui sneered, "The person who uploaded my sponsorship information and photos to the Internet is now in prison."

"He was sentenced for fabricating facts, slander and defamation, as well as bribing internet trolls and disturbing social order. Yang Kun, do you want to go in and keep him company?"

"Son, just call the legal team over and send this human to accompany Zhong Yujie. Why waste time with him?"

The system doesn’t know what’s wrong with Qiu Shui. Since returning to Yangcheng, he has been encountering these weird things.

"Not for now." Qiu Shui stopped the system from calling anyone.

He and Yang Kun didn't have a very good relationship when they were in high school. But it's not bad enough to slander and belittle in front of others like this.

He didn't know what was wrong with Yang Kun's brain.

Sentenced?

Yang Kun suddenly felt unwell.

If that person is sentenced, it means that Qiu Shui's so-called sponsorship is a slander.

And he had just mocked and ridiculed Qiu Shui for being someone's kept man in front of so many people, which was tantamount to slander and defamation.

Looking at the classmates around him, they were all looking at him strangely.

There was contempt in those eyes.

The two classmates, a boy and a girl, who were sitting on his left and right, simply dragged their chairs and moved to the side.

Don't make it too obvious that you want to stay away from him.

Just now, these people treated him like fragrant honey. Like bees, they surrounded him and flattered him.

But now, the flattery and enthusiasm on their faces are gone.

There was contempt and blame in his eyes.

Even Xiao Ying and Mu Ziyang looked at him with disdain.

Everyone present stood on a united front against his slander and insults against Qiu Shui.

This sudden change instantly made Yang Kun angry and embarrassed.

Yang Kun yelled at Qiu Shui: "How do I know whether what you said is true or false? Maybe you just lied to justify yourself?"

"Haha." Qiu Shui laughed.

Yang Kun was angry, "What are you laughing at?"

"Yang Kun, I remember you went to university in Kyoto, right? But when I look at you now, it seems like you went to study in a remote mountain forest with no electricity or internet? The person who slandered me was arrested and became a hot topic. Do you really not know, or are you pretending not to know?"

"If you don't believe it, you can check it yourself on the Internet."

"Well, I want to see whether what you said is true or false."

Yang Kun immediately picked up his phone and searched for cases of students being kept as mistresses at the University of Science and Technology of China.

Although it happened several months ago, the Internet has memory.

So, Yang Kun found out quickly. Other students also found out.

Just as Qiu Shui said, the person who spread the rumor that Qiu Shui was being kept by someone has been sentenced.

That man was a rich second-generation. After he was arrested, his parents were also arrested.

The family went bankrupt because of this.

Yang Kun didn't expect that Qiu Shui's kept man was actually fake.

But it was true that he was slandered as Qiu Shui's financial sponsor and almost failed the interview.

Seeing Yang Kun holding the phone, his expression was stiff.

Qiu Shui said coldly: "Why, you've finished reading it, don't you have anything to tell me?"

"Hmph." Yang Kun snorted coldly and slammed the phone on the table. He looks very unhappy.

"Apologize." Lou Yuchen stared coldly at Yang Kun with his dark eyes.

This person actually slandered Qiu Shui in front of so many people without even clarifying the facts.

This made Lou Yuchen very angry.

If everyone present believed what he said. Spread what he said.

Even if it is later clarified that it was a misunderstanding, the damage to Qiu Shui's reputation is irreparable.

Yang Kun didn't want to apologize to Qiu Shui at all. Why?

He clearly harmed me. Even if he wasn't kept by someone, it's a fact that he implicated me.

As the class monitor, Xiao Ying couldn't stand it anymore.

"Yang Kun, you were indeed wrong in this matter. Just apologize to Qiu Shui and let it go."

"Qiu Shui, don't take it too seriously. Yang Kun was probably too busy, so he heard some rumors from somewhere else. Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, we are all old classmates. After he apologized, I hope you won't take it too seriously."

Although Xiao Ying was trying to smooth things over, deep down she was on Qiu Shui's side.

Although Xiao Ying is a bit materialistic, she is also a very principled person.

She would never do such things as slandering and defaming others.

After all, that's something that only people without conscience or with a black heart would do.

Especially in some rural areas, sometimes some bad rumors can really kill people.

"Yang Kun, hurry up and say sorry to Qiu Shui. It's your fault for wrongly accusing her."

"I just said Qiu Shui would never do something like that. It must be a misunderstanding."

"That's right. Fortunately Qiu Shui came and cleared up the misunderstanding. Otherwise, it would be very bad for Qiu Shui if it got out."

"Yang Kun, you are wrong in this matter. Apologize to Qiu Shui."

Faced with everyone's condemnation, Yang Kun was angry and aggrieved.

He has never felt so depressed since graduating from college.

I didn't expect these people to be so short-sighted.

Instead of trying to please him, they stood against him. Forced him to apologize to Qiu Shui.

This is simply a slap in his face.

However, Yang Kun never thought that when he slandered Qiu Shui, the look on his face was just that of a man with a conscience. I basically don't like it.

Although Yang Kun was very reluctant.

But now they are outnumbered and Yang Kun knows he is in the wrong.

So, he could only hold his breath and quickly shouted sorry to Qiu Shui with an unhappy look on his face.

Xiao Ying saw that Yang Kun had apologized, although his attitude was not sincere. However, she was the one who organized this party, and she didn't want to make it too embarrassing, so she said to Qiu Shui: "Qiu Shui, since Yang Kun has apologized, you should be magnanimous and forgive him."

"Did he apologize? Sorry, I'm a little hard of hearing lately, I don't think I heard it." Qiu Shui asked Lou Yuchen with a puzzled look, "Achen, did you hear it?"

Lou Yuchen answered seriously: "No."

"Qiu Shui, don't go too far." Yang Kun's face turned pale.

"It was obviously you who did the wrong thing, shouldn't you apologize? Now you're saying that I'm the victim, which is too much? Oh, I think it's better to call the police. After all, I think since I've been hurt, it's better to use the weapon of law to protect myself."

Qiu Shui had a smile on his face, and his smile was particularly bright.

When dealing with this kind of person, don't talk to him too much. If you have any problems, just call the police.

This is the most direct and effective method.

"you……"

Yang Kun didn't expect Qiu Shui to directly threaten him to call the police. He was so angry that his heart ached.

But there was nothing he could do about Qiu Shui.

If Qiu Shui really called the police, he would be the one who would suffer.

"No need to call the police, classmate Qiu, it's just an apology. No need to trouble the police uncle. Yang Kun, why don't you apologize to classmate Qiu quickly." Mu Ziyang winked at Yang Kun. He didn't want Xiao Ying to be implicated because of Yang Kun.

Did this guy go out without a brain today?

You are talking nonsense about things that have not been confirmed.

The truth has been revealed, yet they still haven't given us a sincere apology.

At the beginning, Mu Ziyang thought that he could make friends with Yang Kun, but now it seems that he should forget it.

Yang Kun felt extremely aggrieved at this moment, but no matter how aggrieved he was, he had to endure it.

He quickly calmed himself down.

Right now, we must not let anger cloud our minds.

If you lose your rationality, it is easy to make mistakes and do things that you will regret.

Yang Kun took a deep breath, forced a smile on his face, and said to Qiu Shui: "Qiu Shui, I'm sorry. I also heard about your story from others. I didn't expect that he actually lied to me. I'm sorry."

Qiu Shui thought Yang Kun would explode, but he didn't expect that he actually endured it.

"It's okay, just be more careful next time. After all, not everyone is as generous as me."

Yang Kun's mouth twitched and he suppressed the urge to curse.

Seeing that the problem was solved, Xiao Ying smiled and said, "That's right, we are all classmates, there is no need to be so confrontational. Everyone must be hungry, let's order some food."

"Waiter take your order."

After hearing the sound, the waiter outside opened the door and walked in.

Xiao Ying said enthusiastically: "Qiu Shui, just order whatever you want to eat, you're welcome."

"No need, just order the food, we can eat anything."

Qiu Shui and Lou Yuchen don't like to order food in such occasions.

Soon, the dishes were ordered.

We ordered a total of twelve dishes and one soup.

It's more than enough for a dozen people.

When the waiter left, he glanced at Qiu Shui and Lou Yuchen again.

While ordering food, Yang Kun took a look at Qiu Shui and Lou Yuchen and saw that the clothes they were wearing were of good styles.

However, there are no brand logos on the clothes.

Yang Kun secretly curled his lips in disdain.

His eyes rolled and he said to Qiu Shui: "Qiu Shui, what job do you do now?"

When Yang Kun asked this question, there was a faint smile on his face.

However, Qiu Shui and Lou Yuchen both sensed his ill intentions.
