Chapter 85: Watch Carefully

Shen Xinghe was busy doing experiments, so he came for a while and left after dinner. Lin Shuliang insisted on sending him to the airport, and Luo Yun followed her.

The four of them said goodbye in two directions.

"I told you not to see me off, but you still insisted on coming. Your enthusiasm might easily give me the wrong impression." Shen Xinghe pretended to be frivolous.

"How come? Are you going back to continue practicing your Mandarin?" she asked deliberately.

"Hmm..." He answered in a drawn-out tone, interlacing his index finger and thumb, "Probably. I'll trouble you tonight."

"My pleasure." She faked a smile and thought to herself: You little brat, let's see when you'll tell the truth.

Jiang Yang brought Luo Yun over and said, "Let's go, it's time."

Shen Xinghe turned aside and was about to leave, but he turned around and hugged her, "I'll take care of everything, don't worry."

Luo Yun and Jiang Yang exaggeratedly covered their eyes, "You are really getting more and more outrageous."

After they left, Lin Shuliang and her boyfriend also returned to school. Before they arrived, the person they had scheduled showed up. It was Li Ran, who said he had something to talk to her about.

They made an appointment at the school leisure street. When he saw Lin Shuliang, she was not as casual as usual, but rather more restrained.

"Are you okay?" Li Ran asked.

Everyone she met today seemed to be asking this question. She didn't understand why she was not good enough. She had a clear conscience.

"Great."

Li Ran walked with his head down, "Shuliang, do you know when I first saw you?"

"Isn't it just those few days of military training?" What's the point of asking such a question?

"Actually, no, it was earlier." He stopped, his eyes filled with affection.

In a flash, Lin Shuliang remembered Li Panxi's words, her cousin, and when she was preparing for the show, Li Ran recommended her Taoli Cup work. It couldn't be a coincidence. She said with certainty, "You have seen me dance."

"Yes, I'm cousin Li Panxi."

Although one should be able to clearly distinguish between love and hate, sometimes love and hate are not so clear-cut. She hates Li Panxi, but Li Ran is actually her cousin.

She could only try to calm down and constantly remind herself that they were two people. "So... are you here to apologize or to attack me?"

There are only two things: he came to apologize on behalf of Li Panxi, or to ask her why she did it.

"You misunderstood. I just wanted to ask you. There is so much negative news online right now, and I'm worried that you might be upset."

"Thank you for your concern. It's nothing, so I'll leave first." She just informed Li Ran and started moving.

He chased after her, "How can I help you?"

He is Li Panxi's cousin, what can he do to help? Lin Shuliang smiled and refused, "No need, I'm already very happy this afternoon that you can come to greet me instead of being a lobbyist, really."

"But I still want to do something to help you." He grabbed Lin Shuliang eagerly with a sincere expression.

Lin Shuliang suddenly felt that she had gone too far. It was Li Panxi who had done something wrong, not Li Ran.

"I'm sorry. I know you're Li Panxi's cousin, but I still feel a little uncomfortable and have a bad attitude. I know I don't blame you, but you really can't help. You're stuck in the middle." She smiled, "No matter what happens between Li Panxi and me, I'm determined to be your friend."

This made Li Ran feel much better. "There is something I want to tell you. The chief security officer of our school is a friend of Uncle Li Panxi."

"Is it that doctor uncle?" That was all she knew.

"Well, do you know him?"

"We met once." In fact, from that time on, Li Panxi knew without asking that her foot was injured, and I should have been on guard against Li Panxi.

"That's all I know. I don't know if I can help you."

"You are helping me so much, aren't you afraid that Li Panxi will be angry? Also, do you believe that I am not deliberately making trouble?" Although Li Panxi said that Li Ran liked her, there was no need for her to be so ungrateful. Li Ran's behavior was really puzzling.

Li Ran shook his head. "I don't believe her. She pretends to be too nice in front of adults, but I know she is not a simple person. I hope I can help you. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

She also wondered how Li Panxi got the surveillance so easily, it turned out she needed someone from the inside.

On her way back to the dormitory, she met a few people. One of them saw her first and whispered to the others, "Look, this is Lin Shuliang. Don't be fooled by her nonchalant look. She is very ruthless when it comes to beating people up."

"I never expected how many men would worship her as a goddess with her dance at the welcome party."

"Who can blame him for not being worthy of his position? Look who dares to walk with him now."

…

Xu Chen was right next to them, floating past them like a ghost, "I dare you, do you have any opinions?"

Those people hurried away, running faster than rabbits with their tails between their legs.

"Ignore them, they are just jealous of you. You are a fairy who came down to earth to transcend tribulation, so don't bother with them." Lin Shuliang was also fussy at first, but was amused by the words "a fairy who came down to earth to transcend tribulation".

Like a magic trick, he pulled out a small gift from his pocket. It was the little prince, and there was a rose beside him, in the crystal ball, very beautiful.

"How do you know I like the little prince?"

"If you want to know, just tell me." Xu Chen said mysteriously.

She waved it back and forth, "Give it to me?" Xu Chen nodded, and her eyes narrowed with smiles, "Thank you."

Xu Chen touched her head and said, "I feel relieved to see you like this. You don't have to worry about those things on the Internet. All news has a shelf life. In less than half a month, this matter will be over."

She smiled and said, "I know, so I didn't respond and played dead. Public opinion is like table tennis. They hit me hard, and I hit them back. They will continue to hit me. If I don't fight them, they will get tired after a while."

"Smart." Xu Chen liked her theory and thought it made sense. "But I'm still a little concerned. How did she piss you off?"

"I don't want to talk about it. It's in the past."

There are always people pointing and talking about her. Although she used to be looked at when she walked on the street, it was out of admiration, love and curiosity, but now it is all disdain and suspicion.

But she didn't care. She never took their appreciation seriously, and naturally she would not take their slander seriously.

Xu Chen looked at the people around him and said, "Winter is coming soon. I'll buy you some earmuffs so you can hear nothing."

Really, try your best to make her happy.

She patted Xu Chen's shoulder and said, "I'm fine. You don't have to beat around the bush to comfort me."

"Did you see that? You still need to hone your acting skills." Xu Chen put his hand on his chin, pretending to be in deep thought.

Lin Shuliang chatted with him for a while and then went back to the dormitory. Luo Yun was sitting in front of the computer with a serious face. She only heard the sound after he closed the door.

"Shuliang, come here quickly, and see if the countermeasures I have researched for you are feasible?"

"What's the solution?"

After watching it, I realized that this girl took several steps to clear Lin Shuliang's grievances.

First of all, go to F University to collect negative information about Li Panxi to prove that she has character problems. Combined with what happened in No. 1 Middle School before, it can be said that she deserved to be beaten and it had nothing to do with Shuliang.

Furthermore, she asked Xu Chen to testify how she had allowed Xu Chen to get close to Lin Shuliang.

Then, there was nothing else to say. She laughed dryly, "I haven't thought about the rest yet."

Lin Shuliang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but she knew she had a plan. "Let me ask you, why are they scolding me?"

"Because you did it, but she didn't, and she even came out to defend you."

"Yes, so they have determined that no matter what the reason, it was wrong for me to take action. I will go and find dirt on Li Panxi, and they will say that I will not even apologize and will only make excuses."

"That's right." Luo Yun agreed. She scratched her hair by her ear. "What should I do? When you were not here, people from the neighboring dorms came to ask me what happened to you. They all looked so happy about the misfortune. I really wanted to chase them out with a clothes rail."

"Just treat it coldly. No matter what they say, time will tell what their true nature is." Lin Shuliang said firmly.

She returned to her seat and said, "I still have a homework to hand in, so I'll do it." She turned on her computer and connected to the Internet.

The mailbox started flashing again. She checked the time. It was morning. No wonder it was sent in.

She clicked on it and saw a recording:

"What did you talk to Lin Shuliang? She just said that Xu Chen likes me." Lin Shuliang was very familiar with Li Panxi's voice.

"No, I saw Xu Chen coming to our class that day. I brought her breakfast. She looked so arrogant, which made me uncomfortable. So I said a few words to put a damper on her arrogance." This is Chen Jingyi.

Li Panxi's words were totally out of her normal style, and she spoke in a particularly harsh tone, "So what did you say?"

Chen Jingyi seemed frightened, and after a long while she said, "What I meant is that Xu Chen didn't like her at all, but he thought she stole your limelight, so he pursued her so fiercely. That's right, before she came, you were the focus, but now, I just think she doesn't deserve it! Xu Chen was nice to her because of you..."

Li Panxi interrupted her, "That's enough!"

She continued to speak, and Li Panxi raised her voice, "I've said enough!"

There is nothing after that.

It was this kind of voice. This was how Li Panxi argued with her that day. Maybe she even had a weird smile on her face.

Luo Yun came over as soon as she heard the voice. After listening, she couldn't help but slap her thigh, "This is ironclad evidence! Put it online first, so she can't escape. She looks gentle and kind in normal times, but she is like this behind the scenes."

"No." Lin Shuliang said, "This won't work. Let me think about what to do. This recording came out of nowhere. If it's released, it will only cause an uproar."

The people in the conversation are Chen Jingyi and Li Panxi, which means that it is most likely one of them who recorded the audio. But no matter what either of them thinks, they would not give this recording to her!

The matter was really interesting. She resisted the urge to post it online to retaliate against Li Panxi.

The next day, the Internet was clear and there was nothing there. All the news about her was completely removed.

The only person who would do this is Shen Xinghe.

Sure enough, there was a message he sent on the phone: Good morning, the air is much fresher today.

She smiled and replied with a hugging emoji. I typed a line: Because of you, but then thought it was too ambiguous, so I deleted it.

Bored, she flipped through her circle of friends and saw her personal signature: Important things cannot be seen with the eyes, you have to see them with your heart.

This is a famous quote from The Little Prince. No wonder Xu Chen knew that she liked this. He was a very careful observer.

Despite a lot of slander, there are still many people who love her.
