UPWR1BY Chapter 558: Lu Yao, if you dare to hit me, I'll ruin you and your boyfriend.
Chapter 558: Lu Yao, if you dare to hit me, I'll ruin you and your boyfriend.
That afternoon.
Senior Sister Cai posted a message on her WeChat Moments:
"I know your name now, you little freshman in the white shirt and black pants.
Your name is Ye Xiu, right?
And you're Lu Yao's boyfriend?
You little thing, you touched my butt in the library hallway, using the crowd and your backpack as cover (smirking emoji).
No glasses, about 185 cm tall.
I may not be able to beat you up, but I'll make sure you get socially dead in my friend circle first!
The security office has already recorded it, and the surveillance footage will be out tomorrow!
Once the evidence is clear, I'll decide whether to make it public or post another message! (smirking emoji)
My demands are simple! [A written apology] [Your family must know about this] [I refuse to have any contact with him, and my personal privacy (including name, department, and major) must be protected, especially from him!]"
After posting on Moments, Senior Sister Cai shared it in a group chat, asking friends to spread it to the media they knew.
After completing all the tasks, a cold smile appeared on Senior Sister Cai's face.
Touching the cheek that Lu Yao had slapped, a look of malice flashed in her eyes: Lu Yao, if you dare to hit me, I'll ruin you and your boyfriend!
Just you wait!
...
I have to say, Senior Sister Cai, being a student of Huaqing University, had quite the connections.
The news spread throughout Huaqing University within two hours.
Three hours later, it caught the media's attention.
Major media outlets in China were scrambling to report on it.
"Shocking, a senior sister at Huaqing University harassed by a freshman in the library!"
"Shocking, a freshman at Huaqing University caught groping a senior sister!"
...
The headlines spread like wildfire, and within half a day, the news was all over the internet, topping trending searches.
A tidal wave of criticism and condemnation fell upon the freshman.
If it were anyone else, they might have had a mental breakdown from the media frenzy.
...
Afternoon, in Qi King's Mansion.
Ye Xiu was lounging on a deck chair in the garden, sipping red wine, eating grapes, and basking in the sun.
It was rare to have such a sunny day, and he didn't want to waste it.
After running three Didi rides, he was exhausted.
He needed a half-day rest.
System: "..."
"Boss, you're trending."
The butler walked over with a phone.
Ye Xiu took it and saw that the top trending searches were all about the senior sister at Huaqing University being harassed.
Seeing the results, Ye Xiu was not angry; instead, he was a bit happy.
With a smile, he said, "Thank you for spreading my name so widely.
This way, certain people will notice me, right?"
The butler asked, "Do you need us to suppress the public opinion?"
Given Ye Xiu's current financial resources and connections, suppressing a trending search would be easy.
But Ye Xiu had a clear conscience and didn't need to suppress the search.
Besides, it might even benefit him.
"No need, someone will take care of it. Even if no one does, the surveillance footage will prove my innocence.
That woman will have to apologize eventually.
Alright, I'll continue sunbathing."
"Understood." The butler withdrew.
...
At Huaqing University Research Institute.
A group of old professors was holding a stack of blueprints, discussing and designing according to the drawings.
While analyzing, they praised, "Brilliant, this design principle is truly ingenious! The person who drew these blueprints must have an extremely profound understanding of automotive mechanical engineering!
I'd love to meet this Professor Ye Xiu!"
Indeed, the blueprints they held were designed by Ye Xiu.
When the old professors received the blueprints, they treated them as treasures and immediately started researching.
As the research progressed, they grew more and more impressed with the designer, Ye Xiu.
"What a disgrace."
At this moment, a young assistant nearby spat in disdain, "A top student at Huaqing University harassing a senior sister!"
"Focus on the research!" Hearing the assistant's comment, a stern-faced professor reprimanded.
"Yes, sorry, professor."
"What's going on?" a more amiable professor asked.
"Professor, look." The assistant handed the phone to the professor.
The professor glanced at it, "Oh, a freshman harassing a senior sister. The student affairs office will handle this... Wait... the freshman's name is Ye Xiu?"
"Ye Xiu? Let me see!" Another professor, hearing the name, quickly stepped forward and was shocked to find it was indeed Ye Xiu.
Could this Ye Xiu be the same Professor Ye Xiu they were looking for?
Probably just a namesake?
"Investigate! Investigate immediately! We must find out if this Ye Xiu is the one we're looking for!"
Despite thinking it unlikely, as scholars, they had to maintain a rigorous attitude!
Even with the slightest possibility, they couldn't miss it!
The professors immediately ordered an investigation to determine if this Ye Xiu was their Ye Xiu!
...
At the same time.
Outside Xinghui Film Group headquarters.
Peng Xiaoqi struggled through a crowd of media to get into her car: "To the villa."
Once inside the car, she sighed in relief.
Thanks to Ye Xiu, she was now a rising star at Xinghui Group, inevitably followed by paparazzi.
Scenes like this happened several times a day.
After getting in the car, she relaxed a bit and casually checked the news on her phone.
She quickly saw the trending topic about Huaqing University.
Clicking on it, she was surprised to see the name Ye Xiu: "Brother Ye? Could it be the same name?"
Peng Xiaoqi furrowed her brows slightly and handed her phone to her assistant: "Check if this Ye Xiu is Brother Ye."
"Got it."
...
At Jiashi Luxury Apartments in the Imperial City.
The Liu family.
In a spacious, bright guest room with floor-to-ceiling windows.
Liu Yanrou, in a bathrobe, sat lazily on the sofa with her legs together.
Beside her sat an elderly lady, frowning as she scolded, "I've planned everything for you, yet you still couldn't win him over. What a disgrace!"
Liu Yanrou's charming face showed a hint of grievance: "Grandma, it's not my fault. That guy just isn't interested in me.
I've been proactive enough, and after several months, he hasn't even called me."
"Hmph! Proactive? For such an outstanding young man, it's worth it to offer yourself on a silver platter!"
"Grandma! What do you take me for!" Liu Yanrou said angrily.
"I don't care what you are, I have my eyes on that boy.
My judgment is never wrong!
If he can be a shareholder of Hengshi Group now, he could buy it in the future!
His future achievements are limitless.
By any means necessary, you must win over this grandson-in-law I've chosen!
Otherwise, hmph!
I don't need such a useless granddaughter!"
"Grandma~~"
Liu Yanrou moved closer, pouting and pushing the elderly lady coquettishly, feeling wronged.
"Hmph, stop it! I'm not falling for that!" The elderly lady turned her head away, not looking at her, acting tough!
Buzz—
Liu Yanrou's phone on the table vibrated.
She picked it up and saw a news alert from her subordinate.
Opening it, she was stunned.
Ye Xiu harassed a senior sister at Huaqing University?
"Let me see what's going on!"
Before Liu Yanrou could react, the elderly lady snatched the phone.
She saw Ye Xiu's name at a glance and read further, getting angrier.
"Who dares to slander my grandson-in-law like this!?"
Liu Yanrou: "..." (→_→ Grandma, am I really your blood relative or is Ye Xiu?)
"And who is this Lu Yao? How can she be Ye Xiu's girlfriend? Something's fishy here!"
The elderly lady shot a sharp glance at Liu Yanrou, scolding angrily, "Why aren't you investigating this!?"
"Oh..."
Liu Yanrou, feeling aggrieved, left.
She finally understood that in her grandmother's eyes, she, the actual granddaughter, was less important than an outsider like Ye Xiu~~
So frustrating!
