Chapter 13
[Explosive! The true colors of a sophomore "campus heartthrob" exposed: He fraudulently obtained student aid, and his private life is disgusting! He should be expelled immediately!]
Main text: I didn't want to say this, but I've been holding it in for almost a year, and today I just have to get it off my chest! I won't say his name, but that so-called campus heartthrob in my sophomore year who pretended to be a poor but academically gifted student to gain attention is actually a complete scumbag and a disgrace. Does he really think our school is a garbage dump?!
Since last year, I've noticed that this person is really outrageous. He received scholarships and grants, but secretly used luxury goods, new phones, and new computers, and always ate at high-end restaurants. So, the students who were truly poor and couldn't even afford textbooks didn't receive the subsidies, and all the money was squandered by this parasite? Has he lost all his conscience?
Furthermore, he has a terrible attitude towards others and gets along very poorly with his roommates. It's one thing to have a bad relationship with one person, but he also has conflicts with the entire dorm. Need I say more? I heard that he doesn't shower or brush his teeth in the dorm, and his bed is so dirty that mushrooms grow on it. He still complains about his roommates. How can he have the nerve to do that?
I saw him being very rude and harsh to the cleaning lady last time, saying that she was from the countryside and shouldn't get his new shoes dirty!
And ever since he enrolled last year, he's always been staying out all night. I've seen him outside several times with different people, it's so disgusting. This year it's even worse, I heard he moved out right after the start of the semester, I wonder if he's hooked up with someone? It's disgusting, making money so fast, and he's even stealing other people's student aid!
How can such a morally corrupt, swindling, and shameless scoundrel be allowed to remain in school and pollute the atmosphere? I'm really afraid he'll lead more people astray! I strongly suggest the school thoroughly investigate him and expel him immediately! I also urge all students to stay away from him and not be fooled by his seemingly refined and scholarly demeanor!

After logging out of the account he had created with the new SIM card, Chenmian picked up his bag and left the internet cafe. He was still a little scared to do such a bad thing.
He wrote it several times at first, but he wasn't good at swearing, so he racked his brains to imitate posts from other forums that exposed people before he could barely finish it.
The school forum was very active, and within two minutes of posting, there was a notification. Chenmian didn't click to read it; he was both anxious and looking forward to the replies from his classmates.
He had no evidence; after all, it was just a rumor, all fabricated and exaggerated. He was full of bravado when the bad idea came to him, but once it was sent out, Chenmian's heart pounded. It wasn't until a classmate greeted him on the way back that he finally snapped out of it.
With one hour left before the end of the last class in the afternoon, Shen Mian had been unwilling to have dinner with Lin Langli that evening, but worried that he might use this as an excuse to make things difficult for him. So she took her schoolbag and went to Lin Langli's classroom to take a quick look.
Many people in the classroom were secretly glancing at Lin Langli. They thought they were being discreet, but after looking at each other, they realized that they had clearly seen the post.
In less than half an hour, it has caused such a big commotion?
Chenmian felt even more frightened, and also a little guilty in front of the victim. But Lin Langli had already seen him. Their eyes met, and Chenmian reluctantly walked through the back door.
The young man remained oblivious, tidying up the other seat beside him without speaking to him.
"I... I don't have class anymore, I want to go back first," Chen Mian stammered, biting her tongue, not daring to look up at the victim's eyes. "I won't have dinner with you tonight. You can go find Chen Ci. He doesn't have class this afternoon, so he'll either be doing experiments or playing ball."
Lin Langli nodded casually, then suddenly glanced at him, startling Shenmian: "You know him very well."
Chenmian was in a state of confusion and nodded haphazardly: "After all, we've spent many years together, and you'll get to know him very well in the future!"
Lin Langli's smile faded, and he turned his head back to continue listening to the lesson, which was considered as agreeing to Chen Mian's application.
He said he was going back, but after leaving the teaching building, Chenmian felt lost again. He logged into his account and looked through the posts. There were already many replies below. The front row was decoding, the middle row was muttering, asking questions, asking for evidence or PDF versions, questioning, all of them were in the comments section, pushing and shoving, and there were hundreds of reposts and shares. Chenmian even felt a little eye pain.
It was early September, still a hot time of year, but for some reason, the young man felt a chill down his back and a slight urge to regret and cry.
A male voice suddenly rang out from behind, exceptionally cheerful: "Mianmian!"
Looking back, it was the simp she had met with Lin Langli during the holiday, whose name seemed to be Cui Quan. Chen Mian's heart skipped a beat, and she absentmindedly hummed in agreement.
Cui Quan jogged over and stood very close to Chen Mian, who felt a little uncomfortable and took two steps back.
The boy in front of her didn't seem to notice her avoidance and asked enthusiastically, "Mianmian, don't you have class this afternoon? I was thinking about you when I left!"
"Oh, I have class."
Cui Quan laughed and retorted, "Mianmian, how could you lie to me? I have your class schedule; you don't have any classes!"
The young man's face turned cold, and he turned to leave. Cui Quan followed him, shamelessly saying, "Mianmian, can I buy you milk tea? Everyone says you like desserts... Oh, Mianmian, do you like swimming? It's still so hot, and the school just changed the water a couple of days ago. Let's go swimming!"
How annoying! How can someone be so rude? Can't they see I don't want to talk to them?
And what does "they all say" mean? Who is it? Could it be Shen Ci? Would he really reveal his private preferences to others like that?
Suppressing the urge to roll her eyes, Chenmian walked in another direction, while Cui Quan relentlessly followed, seemingly oblivious to the young man's resistance and aversion.
“Mianmian, Mianmian baby,” Cui Quan suddenly called out in a sickeningly sweet tone, “Mianmian, you’re no longer the young master of the Shen family, so why are you still so arrogant and cocky?”
Chenmian's expression changed, and she looked at the other person in disbelief.
His and Lin Langli's background should only be known among people of the same social class. How could people in the school know about it?
Cui Quan smiled, his fingertips involuntarily touching the face in front of him that haunted his dreams. What a vicious and foolish little devil, just keeping him hanging on so easily, treating him like a dog, and so stingy, not even allowing him a little bit of sweetness. How could there be such a selfish person?
He had already seen the post about Lin Langli. After reading it, he immediately interrogated the protagonist's former roommates. Cui Quan easily deduced the source: it was Chen Mian again, right? Why didn't they let him come? Did they just find another sycophant?
But he was still better than the other dogs, and he knew about the uproar at the Shen family over the real and fake young master incident during the holidays.
Despite having lost her bloodline in the Shen family and having significant conflicts with the real young master Lin Langli, why does she still act as recklessly as before?
Moreover, it's so abrupt and superficial that it can't even be disguised properly.
He sighed inwardly. He could tell who was behind it all. How could Lin Langli not?
He was so worried about Chen Mian, yet the other party didn't even reply to a message during the holiday. What a heartless person.
Concealing his sorrow, Cui Quan was now filled with excitement.
The thought that I had been thinking about making a good plan and strategizing when I was sober vanished in an instant. Looking at the beautiful face in front of me, I was completely captivated.
Grasping Chenmian's wrist tightly and ignoring the anger on her face, Cui Quan murmured, "Mianmian baby, let's go swimming together. Don't look at me so fiercely. I just want you to be nicer to me."
Pulled and yanked, Chenmian felt pain in her wrist and forearm, but that was nothing. Worry crept over Chenmian. What illness was Cui Quan having now?
He was still unaware of the deeper, more sordid danger, and only pushed away Cui Quan's hand with trembling eyebrows.
Passersby all looked at them. Chen Mian felt embarrassed and ashamed. He was a well-known figure at school. It was inappropriate for him to be pulling and tugging at others in public.
"Cui Quan! Are you crazy? What are you trying to do?"
Suppressing his anger, Chenmian asked in a low voice with a blank expression.
Because he called out her name, Cui Quan calmed down a little, but then became even more excited, repeating, "Mianmian, Mianmian, let's go swimming together."
"…I can not swim."
"It's okay, Mianmian, you just need to stay with me. Besides, I have something I want to tell you."
Unable to bear the surprised looks from others, Chenmian reluctantly agreed.
It was early afternoon at the start of the school year, and the swimming pool wasn't crowded; only a few people were scattered around in the pool.
While Cui Quan was changing clothes, Chen Mian sent a message to Chen Ci: [There's a lunatic who keeps bothering me! He even dragged me to the swimming pool area. Come and beat him up!!]
There was no reply, which made Chen Mian even more annoyed. Just as she was about to send another message, Cui Quan came out of the dressing room, interrupting her next move.
"Mianmian, look at my muscles, aren't they great? Do you want to pinch them? I work out every day, afraid that you won't be satisfied with me."
"..." What are you showing off for? Don't let him turn into a bullfrog! Chen Mian was upset and thought of Lin Langli's post. She felt uneasy and thought that the situation had been fermenting for a while. If it got any bigger, it would be hard to control. What if Lin Langli called the police? The Shen family would definitely support him. If he was found out then... then he would be finished!
Distracted, Chenmian looked at the newcomer and asked, "You said you had something to tell me, what is it?"
Looking at the boy in front of him, who was puffing up in anger, he was so cute. Even the fragrance on his body was alluring, like a ghost, making him restless.
"Mianmian, you smell so good."
His sleeping expression visibly turned disgusted, as if he had swallowed half a fly and was feeling nauseous all over.
He picked up his bag and was about to leave.

After class, Lin Langli picked up his bag and turned on his phone. The forum posts were already quite long, but the further he scrolled down, the more he saw denials and doubts about the original poster's claims. Nobody believed the story.
Although he had some doubts about his current expenses, others could find evidence to refute everything else.
A kind classmate gave him advice: "[Junior, I know you're not that kind of person. I don't know which troll is trying to smear you. Keep the evidence and send a private message to the administrator to ask them to delete the post.]"
Lin Langli replied casually, "Thank you," and then saw a message Shen Ci had sent him half an hour earlier, saying that he would invite Shen Mian to dinner that night.
Lin Langli sighed, and just as he was about to reply to the other party, Chenmian had already run away when Chenmian's message popped up.
[Help! There's a perverted swimming pool here!]
What is that? It's incoherent.
Lin Langli frowned, then realized what was happening and dialed back. If it was another prank, he thought he would teach Chen Mian a lesson tonight.
Isn't Chenmian quite good at crying? When she cries, she does look rather pitiful.
Lin Langli was thinking casually when the phone in his hand rang a few times before he hung up.
He pressed his temples, wanting to ignore the rising anxiety within him and coldly refute it.
Why did Chenmian send him a message? In this situation, why didn't he go to Chen Ciqu instead of coming to him?
