Chapter 129 The Morning War of Rumors

the next day.

Seven o'clock in the morning.

Lin Bei's phone alarm went off right on time.

He climbed down from the top bunk and found that Zhang Wei had already gotten up before him.

To be precise, Zhang Wei had been fussing in the washroom for almost twenty minutes.

The tap gushed for a while, and then he pushed open the door with his hair still wet, holding a razor in his hand. He carefully shaved the few sparse stubbles on his chin in front of the mirror.

After shaving, Zhang Wei pulled three T-shirts from the closet and spread them on the bed.

One white, one black, one striped.

He looked up at Wang Yuan, who was putting on his pants, and asked, "Which one looks better?"

Wang Yuan fastened his belt, pushed up his glasses, glanced at the three T-shirts, and said, "The white one looks like a tank top, the black one looks like you're going to fight, and the striped one looks like pajamas. You decide what to do."

""

Zhang Wei muttered under his breath, "Asking you is the same as not asking at all."

"In the end, I chose that striped one and put it on, then spent a long time fiddling with my bangs in front of the mirror."

Looking at Zhang Wei, Wang Yuan said, "Please, you're going to help out, not to go on a blind date!"

""

"And this time the protagonist isn't you. Mr. Lin's friend is being falsely accused, and you're here singing and dancing?"

'

After Wang Yuan finished speaking, he folded the military training uniform and put it in the closet.

Then, he pulled out a clean, dark blue polo shirt.

"You don't know anything!"

"This is called making a good impression. If you wear baggy shorts and flip-flops to a first meeting, people will think you're disrespectful."

"Besides, all of Mr. Lin's friends are beautiful women. What's wrong with me leaving a good impression on them?"

"Zhang Wei said to himself in front of the mirror, and then brushed his bangs aside again."

Wang Yuan ignored him and silently changed into the dark blue polo shirt.

At this moment, Zi Yawen slowly climbed down from the upper bunk.

After washing his face, he changed into a clean white T-shirt and casually ran his fingers through his hair.

Bai Yawen's original hair was curled just right; with her natural good looks, she didn't need any embellishment.

Then, he leaned against the bed ladder, took out his phone, and started replying to messages one by one.

While replying to messages, he muttered to himself, "I have something to do today, let's reschedule for another day."

This one is for the floral dress, this one is for the baseball cap, and this one is for that upperclassman.

Bai Yawen typed at a moderate pace, but his expression remained as harmless as ever.

After Lin Bei finished washing up, he put his laptop into his backpack, opened the door and said, "Let's go."


Zhang Wei caught up and asked, "Aren't you going to eat breakfast?"

Lin Bei said, "Let's meet the person first."

""

Then, the four of them walked out of the dormitory building side by side.

The campus was not yet fully awake in the early morning.

The cicadas in the sycamore trees have already started their work, their calls filling the air.

Song Qingning had already arrived at the school gate.

She was dressed smartly today, in a white T-shirt, jeans, and canvas shoes, with her hair tied in a neat ponytail.

She wasn't wearing much makeup, but her brows had been furrowed the whole time.

She held her phone in one hand and a small canvas bag slung over her shoulder in the other, pacing back and forth under the ginkgo tree by the door.

When Song Qingning saw Lin Bei and his three roommates walking out of the school gate, she immediately rushed over to greet them.

Song Qingning nodded quickly to Zhang Wei and the others as a greeting.

Then he turned to Lin Bei: "Let's go, we'll talk as we walk."

"Have you had breakfast?" Lin Bei asked, noticing that she didn't look well.

Song Qingning sighed, "I'm not in the mood for breakfast right now. I need to see Qianqian first."

"I called Qianqian last night, and she told me about the situation on QQ."

""

"This isn't the first time her roommate has targeted her."

"I was caught red-handed using a light-colored shower gel before, and they even tricked me into going on a blind date. She stormed off on the spot."

""

"You know Qianqian. She won't provoke others, but she won't swallow her anger either."

"That's why those few people have become increasingly outrageous."

"This time, the purpose of spreading rumors is to completely ruin Qianqian's reputation."

"Song Qingning said as she walked.

As she spoke, her fingers unconsciously tightened around the strap of her canvas bag.

Lin Bei didn't say anything, but his pace quickened a little more than usual.

Zhang Wei, Wang Yuan, and Bai Yawen followed behind, keeping a respectful distance without interrupting.

at the same time.

In Su Qianqian's dormitory.

She got up, washed up, and changed her clothes as usual.

In the washroom, as cold water splashed on her face, Su Qianqian looked at her reflection in the mirror. There was a very faint bluish tinge under her eyes; she hadn't slept well the night before.

But after she dried the water droplets on her face, she combed her hair in front of the mirror and tucked it behind her ears, then rinsed off the toothpaste foam before turning on the tap to wash the handle.

All emotions were completely suppressed.

Su Qianqian had just returned from the water room when she heard a strange, sarcastic voice coming from the dormitory.

The sound wafted through the thin door between the water room and the corridor, reaching her ears.

It was Zhou Ting who said in a feigned surprised tone, "The post has already received hundreds of thousands of views. Now that rich girl in our class is famous. The whole school knows who she is."

""

Then came Zhao Lin's voice, which added with a smile: "The post has been up for three days, and everyone who wanted to see it has seen it. Now, when she walks around the school, people are probably pointing and whispering about her."

Do you think she knows it herself?

Liu Wen lowered her voice and said, "Of course she knows. Didn't you see the look on her face when she came back yesterday? She was acting like nothing was wrong."

Zhao Lin added, "Her face is indeed quite deceptive."

"It's a pity, a person with bad character is just no good."

Su Qianqian poured out the water from the basin and carried it back to her dormitory.

The moment she pushed open the door, all sound vanished.

Zhou Ting lowered her head and pretended to flip through a book.

Zhao Lin turned around and started tidying up her wardrobe.

Liu Wen picked up her phone and held it up in front of her.

Su Qianqian walked through their silence, put the toiletries back into the cabinet one by one, tightened the caps, and closed the cabinet door.

He didn't look at them even once throughout the entire process.

The silence of the other three people in the dormitory lasted until Su Qianqian changed her clothes and went out.

The door had just closed.

Zhou Ting couldn't hold it in any longer.

Just as she was about to continue the previous topic, Su Wen's phone rang first.

Su Wen answered the phone; it was her boyfriend calling, and he sounded a little nervous.

"Wenwen, the post is gone?"

"It was still there last night, but I couldn't open it this morning. It must have been deleted."

Su Wen paused for a moment, then said, "So what if you deleted it? It's been up for three days already, and everyone who wanted to see it has already seen it. What's the point of deleting it now?"

She glanced at the direction of the dormitory door, her lips pursed downwards: "They probably had someone report them, but it's okay, the post is gone but the topic remains, people will still point and whisper about them if I walk around the school."

Su Wen's boyfriend asked on the phone, "Nothing will happen?"

'

Su Wen said, "The posts are all gone, who can still find out that we posted them?"

Don't worry.

She hung up the phone, tossed it onto the bed, and said confidently, "It's just that it was reported and deleted, it's no big deal."
