Now, the research institute in the imperial capital has released a notice claiming that this was invented by his boyfriend. How can those people online continue to slander him!
After feeling happy, he remembered the hurtful comments online and took out his phone to engage in a heated argument.
His boyfriend may be easily bullied, but he is certainly not a good person!
Previously, due to Ye Qiu trending on social media, everyone at school knew that a senior had entered the imperial capital research institute, and no one spread rumors about his boyfriend being arrested.
As a result, people continued to gossip about Ye Qiu’s other rumors.
Some said he got in through connections.
How is that possible? They knew on their first day together that his boyfriend only had a mother in his family; where would those connections come from?
Others brought up the incident when Ye Qiu had an affair with a “phoenix man.”
How ridiculous! Heaven knows his boyfriend not only never spent a penny of his own but also sent money back home. He is not the kind of person people claim he is, one who makes his mother work three jobs while he wears brand-name clothes!
Now, Ye Qiu was rumored to have stolen someone else’s research results, and the school was full of accusations against him.
While he was cursing, Yi Ruxin suddenly appeared. “Chenchen, you can’t keep causing trouble like this. Now that such a big incident has happened, instead of thinking of a solution, you’re stirring the pot.”
“Do you know that Uncle Lu’s company has lost a lot of shares because you insisted on supporting Ye Qiu?”
Lu Chen rolled his eyes at Yi Ruxin’s words. “So that’s how my dad suddenly knew so much bad gossip about Ye Qiu; it turns out you told him. Why are you meddling in other people’s business? If you have that much time, why not go out and earn some money to move out?”
Yi Ruxin’s eyes reddened upon hearing this, thinking, does she even live in the Lu family?
Huang Gaochen, who came with Yi Ruxin, felt that Lu Chen was making things uncomfortable for Yi Ruxin in front of so many people, reinforcing his belief that Lu Chen was hard to get along with.
“You’re just lucky and came from a better family than Yi Ruxin. In every other aspect, you simply don’t compare!” He looked down disdainfully at Lu Chen. “Lu Chen, given the good relationship between our families, I advise you to listen to Ruxin more. I’ve heard you’ve been cursing people online; just look at yourself now, it’s downright embarrassing!”
He really didn’t understand why his family insisted he get close to Lu Chen. Was it just for money? Though Lu Chen looked decent, his personality was truly unflattering. What he admired most were gentle and considerate women like Yi Ruxin. It would be fine to play around with someone from a poor family, but marrying them would be too humiliating. If only the Yi family hadn’t gone bankrupt!
Lu Chen rolled his eyes. “What, do you also like women who obsess over other people’s boyfriends? If so, why don’t you show some capability and go after them yourself so that I won’t constantly worry about my boyfriend being taken away!”
“What? You have a boyfriend?” Huang Gaochen couldn’t believe it. His purpose for coming was to gain Lu Chen’s favor. If Lu Chen were single and had no close friends, he thought he’d have a good chance. After all, who else could tolerate Lu Chen’s personality? But now, what was going on!
Seeing Huang Gaochen realize Lu Chen had a boyfriend, Yi Ruxin felt a bit anxious and bit her lip, saying pitifully, “Chenchen, you can’t be reckless! Ye Qiu has cheated, and then he was revealed to be involved in stealing other people’s research—you can’t be so oblivious!”
“Besides, I only invited him out to help you test if he really cared for you. How can you say this about me?”
Yi Ruxin became anxious. If she couldn’t help Huang Gaochen win Lu Chen’s favor, she would lose her value. She had just used Huang Gaochen’s connections to break into those rich second-generation circles—she couldn’t just let that slip away.
Feeling frustrated, Yi Ruxin found it difficult to intervene in the feelings between the two.
Ye Qiu had clearly had feelings for her before; how could he suddenly be so indifferent?
She increasingly confirmed that Ye Qiu’s changes were related to Lu Chen.
What Yi Ruxin wanted was for them to break up; how could she allow their relationship to become so close?
Lu Congrong, although publicly supporting Ye Qiu due to Lu Chen’s reputation, simply believed the two had a good relationship and that his son seemed to have finally made a normal friend. It was understandable for a good brother to step up for another.
Lying on the rocking chair at home, he thought that if his son made a heterosexual friend, maybe he would turn straight too—what a win-win situation!
Lu Congrong paused for a moment. “What, you say Ye Qiu is Chenchen’s boyfriend?”
“Yes, they’ve been together for a while. Ye Qiu is notoriously straight, and I actually told Chenchen to break up with him, but he just wouldn’t!”
How could a straight man like his son’s boyfriend? He must have been deceived—his foolish son!
Lu Congrong called Lu Chen. “Chenchen, I’ve sent a message supporting your boyfriend.”
“Thanks, Dad, I knew you’d be the best, mua!” Lu Chen didn’t realize the underlying test in his father’s words.
Is this an acknowledgment?
Oh no, he had raised his precious son for twenty years, only to have him taken away by some kid who appeared out of nowhere!
“Is your boyfriend the one who came home with you yesterday?” Daddy Lu questioned angrily, seeing Yi Ruxin’s phone while noticing the terrible things circulating on the school forum, which made him even angrier.
He didn’t care about family conditions, but a person with bad character was unacceptable! Cheating and having a widow work three jobs to support him while wearing brand-name clothes—how horrible must one be to do such things!
Yi Ruxin seized the chance to comfort him, “Uncle, please don’t be too angry. I think Chenchen must have been deceived by Ye Qiu’s facade. I will definitely make them break up.”
Hearing Yi Ruxin’s intermittent words, Lu Chen suddenly reacted. “Dad, where did you get this information? Was it Yi Ruxin? Why would you believe such a big mouth?”
Yi Ruxin’s face turned red.
That kid, causing trouble at home is one thing, but now he’s speaking ill of her in front of others. If he really wanted to say it, he should do it when no one was around! No, what is he thinking!
