“Okay. Thank you, Sister Lan.” Luosang didn’t refuse, as it was indeed inappropriate for her to keep wearing pajamas.
When she went back to the guest room to change clothes, she found that all the clothes were brand-name pieces; even the shoes were from Louis Vuitton.
After changing, she came out of the room. Nian Junting raised his head to look at her, eyes glowing. Sister Lan covered her mouth while laughing. “I was so blind before. How could I not notice that Sangsang is as pretty as a star.”
“Sister Lan, please stop making fun of me.” Luosang pulled at her shirt, then looked at Nian Junting and said, “Mr. Nian, these clothes are too expensive…”
“I’m glad you’re aware of that.” Nian Junting smiled and responded with, “You broke my jacket before, so you already owe me over a hundred thousand. With these clothes, you now owe me about two-hundred thousand. You can pay me back bit by bit, but, If you can’t afford to pay your debt, feel free to sell yourself to me.”
Luosang’s face blushed. “The last sentence is the point, isn’t it?” she asked through gritted teeth.
“So you want to sell yourself?” Nian Junting nodded.
“I don’t,” she said.
Nian Junting chuckled and said, “I read a book recently. It says women never say what they mean.”
Luosang felt like he was driving her crazy. She didn’t respond to him. Instead, she focused on the breakfast.
Before she finished the breakfast, she got a call from Yan Su. “Luo, I didn’t go back to school last night, but this morning, I found that in the group chat of our school, in WeChat and in the forums, people are all saying you’re a thief. How did this happen? I’ve sent some screenshots to your WeChat. Check them now.”
Luosang hurriedly opened the WeChat app on her phone. She found that some people had taken pictures of her being taken away by police. The pictures were now spreading all over the school. Instantly, her heart sank. Things had become like this in just one night. Her enemies didn’t even give her any breathing space. Judging by the current situation, soon enough the whole school would know that she was a thief. No one from the film industry would hire her; even worse, she might be expelled from school.
Abruptly, Nian Junting reached out a hand to take her phone away. He spent a while looking at the pictures, then put the phone down and said blandly, “Stop looking at your phone. Finish the breakfast first. I’ll fix your problem.”
Luosang paused briefly and asked, “How?”.
Nian Junting turned to say to Steward Wu, “Get my computer,
Steward Wu soon brought his laptop to him. He turned it on and found the forum of Ximei College of Communication. It was pretty obvious that Luosang had been quite famous in her school, as the entire forum was discussing what happened last night.
He quickly browsed the comments of some people.
One Thousand and One Nights—’Oh my, I can’t believe Luo Sang would do something like this. I saw her as a pure and noble fairy. If I knew what she was really like, I’d have offered her money for sex.’
Honor of Kings Good Good Good—’So disgusting. And she made herself look so virtuous in front of us.’
Pahpahpah—’I wonder how they recruit students. How could they admit such a disreputable thief?’
I’m-Gonna-Be-Rich—’I heard that she had pulled some strings to transfer to our school. Some people say that she often went to Professor Ma’s home. And every time when she visited Professor Ma, Mrs. Ma wasn’t home. Perhaps, she slept with Professor Ma to get this opportunity…’
The more comments Nian Junting read, the darker his face became. Even he couldn’t bear reading the students’ dirty language, so without a doubt, Luosang would have a hard time reading them.
He pondered shortly, then spent a while typing with his slender fingers.
About ten minutes later, he turned off his computer and said to Luosang, “Don’t worry, I’ve fixed it for you.”
“How did you do that?” Luosang asked.
She had only read a few lines from the screenshots that Yan Su sent to her. She knew that Yan Su must have avoided the worst comments to protect her feelings, but she could imagine it. After all, back in An City, after her father went to prison, she had read millions of insulting comments about herself from the forum of the school. Even her best friends tried hurting her. It was the first time she had experienced something like that. She nearly collapsed. What was worse was that no one was there to help her. But now, she was much stronger than before. She was still afraid, but she wouldn’t allow herself to show her fear.
