Chapter 514: Chapter 514 Rumors Are Flying Everywhere
After school, Sheng Tang deliberately waited for the culprit, Sheng Qiao.
She grabbed Sheng Qiao and dragged her behind the library.
"What are you doing?" Sheng Qiao barked, trying to sound tough.
Even when her father was fine, she never won against Sheng Tang. Now, she was even more afraid of her, only daring to play small tricks behind her back.
"Edit your post, or don’t blame me," Sheng Tang said coldly.
"What are you talking about?" Sheng Qiao retorted stubbornly, "I don’t know anything about any post!"
"Are you playing dumb?" Sheng Tang glared at her, "Then wait and see, I’ll complain to Grandpa, and you mother and son can forget about staying in the old house."
"Does Grandpa listen to you?"
"Try me!"
"You... you think I’m afraid of you?" Sheng Qiao’s voice trembled a bit, "You’re just hooking up with Gu Shiting, and you dare to deny it?"
"I’ll say it one more time, edit the post. If you dare not to edit it or delete it outright, don’t blame me for being ruthless."
With that, Sheng Tang ignored her and turned to leave.
Later that day, the post was indeed edited.
Sheng Tang’s supporters were overjoyed.
"It was obviously a rumor, the liar got scared and edited the post!"
"If the school intervened, it would have been directly deleted, not just edited. Sheng Tang is innocent. How about those who were stirring the pot, are your faces hurting now?"
However, the allure of gossip didn’t diminish.
Sheng Tang underestimated the influence she and Gu Shiting had at school.
Even if the post was edited, many people were still discussing her and Gu Shiting.
Qi Lin’s deskmate, deep down, slightly believed it because Gu Shiting was wearing that handmade bracelet which Sheng Tang had woven.
It seemed like, even if Sheng Tang was indeed trying to charm Gu Shiting, she succeeded.
Gu Shiting willingly wore the bracelet she gave, a sign of his approval. She wasn’t like Yang Mingming, who was shunned by Gu Shiting.
Furthermore, when someone speculated on the forum that Yang Mingming gave the bracelet, Gu Shiting stepped up and told Yang Mingming to get lost, strongly defending the girl who gave him the bracelet.
"Qi Lin, I’m telling you, Sheng Tang really is dating Gu Shiting."
Qi Lin ignored him, laying his head on the table, pretending to sleep during the morning reading class.
The person who reacted the most was Liang Wei.
Liang Wei had thought that chasing Sheng Tang would be easy, not expecting her to be so ambitious.
How absurd!
She didn’t even look in the mirror, what was her status, daring to aspire for Young Master Gu?
She thought that having a bit of beauty and some insignificant talent made her invincible?
Because of this, Liang Wei posted on his moments: "One should be down-to-earth. Thinking of soaring up to be a phoenix is simply ridiculous. I’m magnanimous and my arms are always open to welcome you."
No classmates liked his post.
He was kicking someone when they were down.
Liang Wei still felt smug.
However, Sheng Tang hadn’t added him as a friend, so she couldn’t see the nonsense he posted.
He had lunch with Chen Shen and Bai Shaolin, laughing at Sheng Tang’s ambition, thinking it was utterly ridiculous.
"If Gu Shiting even acknowledges her, I’ll twist my head off," Liang Wei said enthusiastically.
Jiang Baocu and Yan Jinzhi, Sheng Tang’s friends, were furious; Sun Xiaojun, wearing a mask, specifically came over to comfort Sheng Tang.
As for Sheng Tang herself, she didn’t care at all.
Before the noon dismissal, while Sheng Tang was still attentively listening to the class, Jiang Baocu suddenly nudged her.
Sheng Tang and Jiang Baocu’s seats were right next to the window.
She looked up and saw Gu Shiting standing in the corridor, nodding at her.
Sheng Tang: "..."
No way, what was this ancestor planning to do, coming over just before class ended?
Jiang Baocu pressed her lips together, smiling.
