Chapter 541: Creating Rumors
Only then did Lu Sheng know that she was the new school belle. She smiled faintly.
She glanced at the time of the post and realized that it was twenty minutes ago.
She did not know who was so bored as to take a few photos and interpret them out of context.
Moreover, Teacher Li would not be so free to visit the school forum.
Then, the only possibility was that someone had told her about this and Lu Sheng knew who it was.
“Teacher, these are my father and uncle. These are my father’s friends. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Chu Yan from Year Three, Cla.s.s One. He was there too.”
“Your father and uncle?” Teacher Li was surprised.
After all, the two people Lu Sheng pointed to did not seem old. They looked like they were only in their thirties.
They were actually Lu Sheng’s father and uncle?
This… was indeed unbelievable.
Lu Sheng smiled and said, “Teacher Li, don’t look at how young they look. Actually, they’re not young anymore. My father is already fifty, and my uncle is about the same.”
Teacher Li took back her phone and scrutinized Lu Sheng and the young man. She realized that they did look alike.
She frowned and said, “These people are too much! They’re casually spreading rumors before they know everything.”
Lu Sheng smiled faintly and said, “I don’t know who told Teacher Li about this Tieba, but don’t worry, Teacher Li. I’ll settle this.”
She wanted to see who the culprit was.
Teacher Li’s expression changed slightly. She looked at Lu Sheng and said, “Go back to the cla.s.sroom first and call Zhu Ling and Zhou Mei out.”
Lu Sheng nodded and returned to the cla.s.sroom.
The moment she entered, Zhu Ling and Zhou Mei looked over expectantly.
Lu Sheng said lightly, “Teacher Li wants the two of you to go out.”
“Us?”
Zhu Ling and Zhou Mei looked at each other and saw the confusion in each other’s eyes.
Lu Sheng glanced at them indifferently and walked past them to her seat.
The duo stood up suspiciously and walked out the door.
After about five minutes, the two of them returned with gloomy expressions.
When Zhu Ling returned, she immediately lay on the table and wept. Zhou Mei was still alright. She turned back and glared at Lu Sheng before turning around hatefully.
Lu Sheng did not know what Teacher Li said. After seeing their reactions, she suddenly felt curious.
Chen Yizhen looked at Zhu Ling hesitantly, not knowing what to say.
In reality, she did not know what happened either. She did not know why Teacher Li found Zhou Mei and Zhu Ling after finding Lu Sheng.
They did not know what Teacher Li said to them that made one of them angry and the other cry aggrievedly.
“Zhou Mei, what did the teacher say to you?”
Chen Yizhen was really curious. In the end, she could not help but ask Zhou Mei softly.
She had no choice. Zhu Ling was still angry. She did not dare to ask her, so she could only ask Zhou Mei.
Zhou Mei sneered and said, “It’s all because someone discovered that someone was being kept and posted on the school forum. Zhu Ling and I went to tell the teacher out of goodwill, but someone said that it was her father and uncle. That’s too funny. She’s already sixteen or seventeen, but her father is only thirty. Who would believe it?”
Lu Sheng had just received a message from Chu Yan regarding the Tieba.
She was about to reply when she heard Zhou Mei’s words.
She paused in her typing and slowly looked up. Her indifferent gaze immediately became sharper.
This was the first time Zhou Mei saw Lu Sheng look at her like that. She could not help but panic.
She was also a local citizen in City H, so she naturally knew who could enter and leave the Jade Hotel.
However, she did not believe that those two were Lu Sheng’s uncle and father. How young were they?
They looked like they were only twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, at most thirty.
“Why?” Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow. “Your father looks old?”
“So you don’t allow other fathers to look young?”
Zhou Mei’s voice was not soft and everyone in the cla.s.s heard her.
After everyone heard that, someone looked at Lu Sheng. Another took out her phone and logged into Tieba to join in the fun.
However, after hearing Lu Sheng’s words, someone could not help but burst into laughter.
“You—”
Zhou Mei could only frown and stare.
“What? There’s nothing on this Tieba?”
w.a.n.g Ming, who was sitting behind Lu Sheng, scrolled through Tieba but did not see the post that Zhou Mei mentioned.
The others did the same and did not see it.
Lu Sheng was puzzled. She logged on to Tieba and realized that the post was indeed gone.
She frowned slightly. It was still there just now.
Without the post, how was she going to find the culprit?
“How could that be? There are even photos.”
Zhou Mei did not believe him. She took out her phone and logged into Tieba to take a look. She realized that the post had indeed disappeared.
She frowned. “Could it have been deleted?”
w.a.n.g Ming snorted and looked at Zhou Mei. “Student Zhou Mei, you will be jailed for spreading rumors.”
“I didn’t create rumors. I didn’t create this post too. I only discovered it when I was browsing Tieba. I told Zhu Ling later, and she told Teacher Li.”
When she heard that she would be arrested, Zhou Mei started to panic.
w.a.n.g Ming argued, “What you said just now was a rumor.”
“I didn’t even name her. Who are you to say that I’m spreading rumors?” Zhou Mei retorted stubbornly.
“Okay, you have a point.”
w.a.n.g Ming said slowly and lowered his head to continue playing with his phone.
Lu Sheng turned back and thanked him in a low voice. He was stunned before smiling faintly.
“Did you get someone to delete the post?” Lu Sheng asked Chu Yan.
“Yes, Pei Yan is the Tieba moderator.”
Lu Sheng was stunned before she smiled.
“Then… Have you found that person?”
“I’ve found it through the GPS. It’s a boy from Year Three, Cla.s.s Six. His name is Su Rui.”
Lu Sheng was stunned. She did not expect that the person who spread the rumor that she was being provided for was a boy.
She did not know when she had become enemies with this person.
“Pei Yan asked him. He’s Zhou Qiong’s admirer. He said that you stole Zhou Qiong’s school belle position, so he wants to help her vent her anger.”
Before Lu Sheng could react, Chu Yan sent another message.
She did not expect them to be more efficient than her.
She thought for a while and replied,
“Just get him to post an apology under his real name. Don’t hit him.”
“Yes, I know.”
Lu Sheng smiled and placed the phone back into the drawer.
She looked up at Zhou Mei and realized that she had already turned around. She was lowering her head and thinking about something.
“Someone took a screenshot.”
It was unknown who said this, but after a while, the pictures spread throughout the cla.s.s.
“Jiang Jing, are you sure this person isn’t your brother?”
After Lin Shuting saw it, she couldn’t help but point at Lu Zhou and ask Lu Sheng.
Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow. “You’re saying that I look older than my age?”
“No, you look normal. You look sixteen or seventeen years old, but your father… is too young, right? Could your father have gotten married in his teens?”
Lin Shuting looked at the photo and felt that they looked more like siblings.
Lu Sheng smiled and said, “Although he looks young, he’s actually already fifty.”
Actually, it had been tens of thousands of years.
She was not sixteen or seventeen years old, but more than a hundred years old.
If these people knew their real age, would anyone buy immortality pills from them?
Unfortunately, she did not know how to refine immortality pills. She only knew how to refine ordinary pills.
Lin Shuting was stunned. “Your father grew up taking preservatives, right?”
Lu Sheng chuckled and shook her head.
“Does your uncle have a wife?”
Another girl asked with a smile.
Lu Sheng thought for a while and smiled. “No, but I don’t know if he has a girlfriend.”
“Then… Can I add him on WeChat?” the girl asked.
Lu Sheng said hesitantly, “But… my uncle is already in his forties.”
The girl was stunned. Then, she laughed and said, “Forget it. I thought he was just in his twenties.”
The serious question dissipated in everyone’s hearts because of the girl’s question and Lu Sheng’s answer.
Soon, the clarification post with an apology on Tieba was created. It was from Su Rui.
Below, there were still people who questioned. Of course, there were also people who scolded Su Rui for shamelessly creating rumors.
[I knew it. My G.o.ddess is obviously a rich woman. How can she be provided for?]
[Support the commenter above. One can tell from her aura that she’s not short of money.]
[Her face might have been created with her sugar daddy’s money.]
[Support the commenter above. Girls these days just don’t love themselves.]
[Hey, did the girl provoke you now?]
…
Lu Sheng scanned through the comments and realized that there were more than a thousand comments in just a while.
The voices inside were different. Of course, there were also conspiracy theories.
In short, there were all kinds of comments.
Lu Sheng did not expect these children to have such imagination and vicious mouths.
There were a few unsightly comments, and she could not help but frown.
One of the comments was like this. “What school belle? I think she’s a joke. She looks innocent on the surface, but she might have played a lot of men so many times.”
Lu Sheng remembered this comment and clicked on that person’s main page. Then, she followed it.
After cla.s.s, she took her things and returned to the dormitory.
She turned on her computer and started to find the person’s IP address.
Soon, she locked on to a point. It was not far from her, just next to her dormitory.
The people living next to her were Zhu Ling, Chen Yizhen, Lan Jia, and Zhou Mei.
At that time, besides Chen Yizhen and Zhu Ling, Lan Jia and Zhou Mei were playing with their phones.
Lu Sheng laughed coldly. She took out the Invisibility Talisman and pasted it on herself.
Although the door next door was closed, the window was still open.
She tapped the ground with the tip of her foot and leaped into the neighboring dormitory easily.
In the room, Zhu Ling was already lying on the bed. Chen Yizhen was studying and Lan Jia was playing games. Only Zhou Mei was scrolling on Tieba.
Perhaps because many people retorted her, she kept replying to them.
[Did you just eat s.h.i.+t? Why is your mouth so unclean?]
[One look and it’s obvious that she’s jealous because the other party is prettier.]
Zhou Mei retorted gloomily: [Jealous? Yes, I’m jealous that she’s being provided for.]
The other party retorted quickly. [No one would be willing to provide for you even if you want to.]
A group of people agreed quickly.
Lu Sheng glanced at the ID who retorted and realized that it was ‘Rich Sisi and Ting.’
She almost burst into laughter.
Zhou Mei threw her phone on the table and Chen Yizhen frowned.
“Oh, sorry!”
She hurriedly apologized to Chen Yizhen and picked up her phone to scold the others.
Lu Sheng watched as Zhou Mei moved quickly on her phone. She replied one person after another, scolding Lu Sheng with every sentence.
When the words were combined, they were extremely filthy. Lu Sheng laughed coldly and took out her phone to take a photo.
Then, she returned to her dormitory.
The next morning.
When Lu Sheng reached the cla.s.sroom, Yang Chunmei had already arrived.
She did not seem to be in a good mood. Lu Sheng thought that she had encountered a setback at work.
She was about to go over and ask, but she pulled her aside first. “Jiang Jing, are you alright? These people like to talk through pictures. They’re so disgusting.”
Lu Sheng smiled and shook her head. “I’m fine.”
She placed the book on the table and flipped it open. She pa.s.sed the money Lin Shuting gave her to Yang Chunmei.
“Lin Shuting asked me to pa.s.s this to you.”
Yang Chunmei reached out to receive it. “Thank you!”
Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow. “Your aunt seems to treat you quite well.”
“Yes!” Yang Chunmei smiled and said, “My aunt has three sons, but she doesn’t have a daughter. Hence, she likes me very much. When I was young, she always asked my mother to let her raise me.”
She held the envelope tightly with both hands and sighed softly. “This time, my aunt should have sent something to my house again. She heard my mother complain to her. Every time she heard my mother complain to her, she would give me money. However, she couldn’t even bear to buy a decent phone.”
She had been studying hard to get into a good university.
Firstly, she wanted to leave that family. Secondly, she wanted to repay her aunt and not disappoint her.
“When I have the ability in the future, I’ll definitely repay Uncle and Aunt well.”
Lu Sheng patted her shoulder and smiled. “All the best!”
“Yes!” Yang Chunmei nodded heavily. “After school, accompany me to the bank. I want to save all this money in my card.”
“Okay.”
Lu Sheng smiled and nodded. Then, she sat in her seat.
Yang Chunmei glanced at Zhu Ling and leaned over to ask Lu Sheng in a low voice, “I heard from Lin Shuting that Zhu Ling and the rest were scolded yesterday. Why?”
“They probably said some ugly words, so they were reprimanded by Teacher Li.”
“Serves them right!” Yang Chunmei snorted.
Lu Sheng smiled and gestured for her to sit back down.
“d.a.m.n, this person is actually a girl?!”
Yang Chunmei suddenly burst out.
“What’s that?” w.a.n.g Ming asked.
Yang Chunmei pa.s.sed it to him and said, “Look, the person who left a disgusting message under Su Rui’s apology yesterday was actually a girl.”
The two of them leaned very close to each other. w.a.n.g Ming could not help but be stunned.
He stared at Yang Chunmei’s profile before looking at the phone screen.
After reading it, he frowned slightly. “Don’t you find this person a little familiar?”
Lu Sheng saw the content and was stunned.
This morning, when she was having breakfast with Chu Yan and the rest, Fu Sisi mentioned Zhou Mei’s message.
Hence, Lu Sheng told Fu Sisi about the matter and Fu Sisi asked her to send the photos over.
Hence, Lu Sheng sent her two photos.
One was the contents of the phone, and the other was Zhou Mei’s back.
She did not expect Fu Sisi to post in such a short period of time.
