Regarding the matter between Su Yang, Qiao Ruoyang, the others, and Jiang Shuyu, Xiao Lingye heard about it from his brother-in-law. However, when he arrived at school, rumors began to spread.

“Ye, have you heard about it?” As soon as Xiao Lingye returned to the dormitory, his roommate asked mysteriously.

Xiao Lingye frowned slightly and asked with some doubt, “Heard about what?”

His roommate said in surprise, “Did you really not hear about it?”

Xiao Lingye immediately said in amusement, “Tell me what it is first.”

His roommate looked outside the door and then said to Xiao Lingye in a low voice, “Now it’s gradually spreading in the school that you were framed by those bastards, Su Yang and Qiao Ruoyang, at the behest of Jiang Shuyu.”

“Oh!” Xiao Lingye was not surprised at all. His expression was very calm.

“Oh?!” His roommate asked curiously, “Ye, why do you look so calm? Do you know about this?”

Xiao Lingye glanced at him. “Didn’t you say that it’s a rumor in the school? Since it’s a rumor, of course, I’ve heard it too. There’s nothing to be surprised about.”

In fact, he had heard about it from his brother-in-law, and he had even heard about something even more surprising from his brother-in-law.

But, Xiao Lingye was not a gossipy person so he was not going to contribute to the rumors… or truth. He decided to stay away from those people. As long as they did not offend him again, he could not be bothered to care about what happened to them.

After hearing Xiao Lingye, his roommate was bored. Then, he rolled his eyes and said with a mysterious expression, “Ye, I also heard a rumor. Only a few people know about this rumor. I also heard it from a classmate in the student union.”

Xiao Lingye could not help but roll his eyes. Then, he said in a bad mood, “No matter what rumor it is, it is still a rumor. It may not be believable.”

His roommate shrugged his shoulders and said, “Yes, I normally don’t listen to rumors. However, these rumors all involve you, so of course, I’m curious. Ye, let me tell you. When I heard that rumor, I found it somewhat unbelievable.”

Xiao Lingye tidied up some textbooks on the table and ignored him.

His roommate then continued, “I heard that Su Yang, Qiao Ruoyang, and the other three decided to set you up because Jiang Shuyu promised to be their girlfriends after they were successful.” Speaking up to this point, the roommate paused for a moment, his eyes still filled with disbelief as he said, “Tsk tsk, this Jiang Shuyu is the goddess of all the male students in the school. She has good looks and good family background.

“But who would have thought that the goddess, who looked as pure as jade on the surface, would have such a vicious nature. Just because you rejected her, she found five of your business partners to set you up.

“But her methods are really crazy. I heard that in order to completely incite your business partners, she promised Su Yang, Qiao Ruoyang, and the others to be their girlfriends.”

At this point, he said in surprise, “Ye, what do you think Jiang Shuyu is thinking? Isn’t she afraid of being exposed by the five of them? What’s even weirder is that the five of them didn’t even know that they were led by the nose by the same woman. I have to say, Jiang Shuyu is quite capable.”

Xiao Lingye had heard about this from his brother-in-law long ago, so his expression didn’t change at all.

Disappointment flashed across his roommate’s face. He asked in a bored manner, “Ye, why aren’t you surprised at all? These people clearly joined hands to frame you.”

Xiao Lingye stopped what he was doing and said seriously, “Actually, there’s nothing to be surprised about. Because I know all these things.”

“You do?” It was his roommate’s turn to be surprised. “Don’t you feel angry?” At this point, his roommate said indignantly, “To think that I used to treat Jiang Shuyu as the goddess in my heart. She was so beautiful and holy that I didn’t even dare to blaspheme her name. But she has a venomous heart.

“She must be crazy. Just because you rejected her once, she thought of collaborating with your partner to set you up. She wants you to be kicked out of the company, lose your reputation, and be kicked out of the imperial university. All the roses have thorns.” The roommate sighed.

Xiao Lingye said, “You can’t say that so absolutely. Some beautiful women have beautiful hearts too.” His sister was also a beautiful woman. She was the most beautiful woman, but his sister was not vicious at all.

His roommate was surprised. He said, “Ye, you actually know so much about women. Do you know many beautiful women?”

Xiao Lingye did not deny it. He nodded and said, “Indeed, I know a lot of beautiful women!” His two sisters were beautiful, and his sister hired many beautiful women at her company.

“Ah, Ye, are you serious?” His roommate suddenly had a feeling of eagerness. He said a little excitedly, “Then Ye, can you introduce one or two of them to me?” Xiao Lingye had very good taste. The women he said were beautiful must be beautiful.

Xiao Lingye grinned and said, “Hehe, I’m sorry. The beautiful women I know either have already married and had children, or they already have boyfriends. You don’t stand a chance. So, you should try your best to find a good girl on your own.”

When his roommate heard that, he had a suspicious look on his face. “Ye, you’re not lying to me, right? How can all the beautiful women you know have married, have children, or have boyfriends?”

Xiao Lingye said firmly, “It’s true.”

“I don’t believe you.” His roommate still did not quite believe it.

“Whether you believe it or not, this is the truth!” Xiao Lingye could not be bothered to argue with him. He thought for a moment and said, “In fact, the women I know are much more beautiful than Jiang Shuyu.”

His roommate did not speak.

Xiao Lingye had always said that he knew many beautiful ladies, even more beautiful than Jiang Shuyu, but he still expressed his doubts.

Other than her vicious heart, Jiang Shuyu indeed had a goddess appearance. Her looks and charisma were definitely not ordinary. He did not think that there were any women who could compare to Jiang Shuyu.

Xiao Lingye did not explain to him. He packed a few books and said to his roommate, “I’m going to class. Are you coming?”

His roommate reacted and immediately packed a few books as well. He said, “Yes, let’s go together. It’s Professor Dai’s class. I don’t want to be late.”

Then, the two walked side by side to the classroom.

On the way, many classmates were pointing at them behind their backs.

“What’s so good about him?” Someone sneered and said, “A goddess fell off the altar just to get revenge on him. It’s really unbelievable.”

“I never thought that Xiao Lingye’s partners would suddenly frame him. But the biggest surprise is that Jiang Shuyu was the one who instigated and instigated them.”

“Yeah, it’s really hard to know a person’s heart!” Someone chimed in, “Who would have thought that a pure and innocent girl, the goddess in the hearts of all the male students in the school, would be so narrow-minded and vicious? Just because Xiao Lingye rejected her invitation to dinner, she started to take revenge on him.”

“Now that Su Yang, Qiao Ruoyang, and the others have been expelled from the school, while Jiang Shuyu is safe and sound, they seem to be asking Miss Jiang to give them an explanation.”

“These people are so shameless.” Someone said disdainfully, “Back then, they betrayed their brothers and partners for a woman. Now that they have failed, they want that woman to give them an explanation. Are they still men?”

“Since they chose to betray Senior Xiao back then, they should have thought about what would happen if they failed.”

“Senior Xiao is also very capable.” Someone covered his mouth and laughed, “Not only did he reject the goddess, but he was also calm and collected towards the sudden betrayal of his brothers.”

“That’s right. Think about it. If it were anyone else in his shoes, they would have been so agitated that they would have broken down. But Senior Xiao was unfazed. At first, we all thought that he was pretending to be calm, but who would have thought that he was already prepared?”

“Do you guys think that it’s true that Jiang Shuyu instigated Su Yang and the others to frame Xiao Lingye?” Some people were still doubtful.

After all, Jiang Shuyu’s goddess image in his heart had already taken root. He didn’t want to believe the sudden rumors at all.

“These are just rumors. Who knows if they’re true or not?” Someone said, “But whether they’re true or not, it’s none of my business. I’m just happy to listen to the gossip.”

After all, it had nothing to do with her.

Moreover, she was not a boy. She used to be envious of Jiang Shuyu, but now she felt nothing. She was just a simple student, not a vicious person.

Xiao Lingye heard the discussions of his classmates and ignored them.

Jiang Shuyu hid in a corner when she heard the rumors. She stomped her feet in anger, her face ashen.

She cursed in her heart, ‘These bastards!’

Then, she picked up the phone angrily and made a call. When the call was picked up, she asked angrily without waiting for the other party to speak, “What’s going on with you guys? Didn’t I tell you to wait for my news? Why is the entire campus filled with rumors about me now?”

She called Su Yang directly. When he heard Jiang Shuyu’s angry tone, he curled his lips and sneered, “Jiang Shuyu, you told us to wait for news, but how long has it been? It’s impossible for us to wait indefinitely.”

After that, his expression changed as he coldly said, “Jiang Shuyu, I’ll give you three more days. If you don’t give me a reply in these three days, the rumors might turn into truths.”

“What?” Jiang Shuyu’s face turned pale. She asked incredulously, “What do you mean by that?”

“Hehe…” Su Yang sneered, “Don’t tell me you thought that we didn’t have any evidence after so many dates?”

He was now glad that he had been careful and recorded their phone records and their conversation during the date. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to do anything to Jiang Shuyu just by relying on those rumors.

Whether or not they could return to Imperial University and persevere until graduation would depend on Jiang Shuyu.

This was related to their future, so they had to be careful.

Jiang Shuyu’s breathing froze for a moment. Then, she took a deep breath and said, “Okay, I’ll give you an answer in three days!”

Su Yang hung up on Jiang Shuyu proudly. Little did he know that after Jiang Shuyu hung up on him, a ruthless look flashed across her eyes. The veins in her hands were bulging, twisted, and ugly.

Jiang Shuyu took a deep breath again and then called home. “Mom…”

After hanging up, Jiang Shuyu’s expression relaxed slightly.

She couldn’t handle this on her own, so she had to rely on her family.

When Father and Mother Jiang heard what Jiang Shuyu said, they were both angry, especially since it involved their daughter’s reputation. So, no matter what, they had to deal with it. Once her reputation was affected, in the future, it would be very difficult for Jiang Shuyu to marry a powerful person.

This was because no aristocratic family would allow their daughter-in-law to have any flaws in their reputation.

Father Jiang said angrily to Mother Jiang, “Look at what your good daughter has done. Why would she waste time harming a country boy? Now she is really asking for it.”

Mother Jiang also said angrily, “My daughter? Isn’t she your daughter too? Now that something has happened, you want to blame it on me?”

Father Jiang was momentarily flustered and didn’t know what to say.

Mother Jiang softened and then said, “Alright, things have already become like this. Let’s not blame each other and settle the matter first! Shuyu said that the few of them had failed to set up that poor kid and had instead been set up. Because of this matter, they had been expelled. Therefore, their request is to return to the school. Otherwise, they will ruin Shuyu’s reputation.”

Father Jiang also calmed down and said, “It looks like I have to call the university.”

Then, Father Jiang called the school. As soon as the call was connected, he said with an air of superiority, “Principal Zhang, I’m Jiang Rong of the Jiang family. It’s like this…”

From the very beginning, he had taken the initiative and introduced himself as a member of the Jiang family.

“Principal Zhang, this is about Su Yang, Qiao Ruoyang, Dai Yimin, Chu Xiangbei, and Pang Dayue. These children are just joking. They won’t be expelled, right?”

Jiang Rong’s arrogant tone was followed by a change in his expression, “What did you say? The expulsion is based on a powerful party’s request. No, principal Zhang, did you not hear clearly? These are just a few kids messing around. What? Someone insisted that the school should handle this impartially? Who is it?”

Jiang Rong couldn’t get anything from Principal Zhang, and he hung up the phone with a bad expression.

When Mother Jiang saw this, she immediately had a bad feeling. She asked, “How was it? How did it go with principal Zhang?”

Father Jiang said with a livid expression, “He said that the school has already punished them, and there’s no reason to take it back.”

“So, they can’t go back to school?” Mother Jiang said with some worry, “Then what should we do? If those people can’t go back to school, they won’t let Shuyu off. What about Shuyu’s reputation?”

Father Jiang glanced at Mother Jiang and comforted her, “I’ll ask around about this and see if I can find anything. Don’t worry!”

Father Jiang naturally felt that something was wrong. The boy was just a country bumpkin. The school wouldn’t offend the Jiang Family just for a country bumpkin.

But that was the truth. So something else must be at work here.
