Chapter 27: Chapter 27: Lin Feng Is My Boyfriend, Please Don’t Jump to Conclusions

"Is the matter resolved?"

Hearing Yang Qingqing’s words, Yang Qiniang froze for a moment.

They had just sent Lawyer Sun off. No matter how capable he was, there was no way he could have resolved this so quickly, right?

So how could Yang Qingqing be saying it was already resolved?

And on top of that, she said Su Ruoxi was the one who resolved it.

"Qingqing."

"What on earth is going on?"

Faced with Yang Qiniang’s question, Yang Qingqing hesitated, not sure what to say.

"Ugh, I don’t know how to explain it."

"Just go look at the forum yourselves."

With that, Yang Qingqing hung up the phone.

"What the..."

"So weird!"

Yang Qiniang muttered helplessly.

"What’s wrong?"

Lin Feng asked curiously.

"Qingqing just told me that Su Ruoxi has already resolved the issue."

"But when I asked her what was going on, she wouldn’t say. She just told us to look at the forum ourselves."

As he spoke, Yang Qiniang opened the school’s online forum.

Soon, a post caught their eyes.

Although it had been posted less than ten minutes ago, it had already been pushed to the top of the trending list.

Its popularity was even higher than the previous post slandering Lin Feng!

The post’s title read: "Hello everyone, this is Su Ruoxi. I’d like to clarify a few things regarding my boyfriend, Lin Feng."

Seeing this post, Lin Feng was completely dumbfounded.

’Since when did I become Su Ruoxi’s boyfriend?’

Yang Qiniang was also completely dumbfounded. Curious, he clicked on the post and began to read.

"Hello everyone, I’m Su Ruoxi from Class 8 of the first-year Business Administration program."

"Last night, I went out to dinner with some friends and had a little to drink, so I only just woke up. I didn’t expect to see so many posts about me online."

"Regarding this matter, I’d like to clarify a few things."

"First, Lin Feng did not act inappropriately towards me. He was just taking me to a hotel to rest."

"Second, Lin Feng and I are in a relationship. He has no reason, nor any need, to do anything to me while I’m drunk."

"Finally, as for the student who secretly filmed Lin Feng and me and posted the video online, I reserve the right to pursue legal action."

"I hope everyone can be rational spectators and stop slandering my boyfriend."

"We just want to be together in peace!"

"Thank you!"

The post wasn’t very long.

In total, it was just over a hundred words.

But the shock it delivered to Lin Feng was immense.

He knew, of course, that Su Ruoxi was doing this entirely to clear his name.

With the appearance of this post,

public opinion about Lin Feng completely reversed in an instant.

Everyone’s initial condemnations turned into shock over Su Ruoxi’s official relationship announcement.

School had started less than a month ago.

And the new campus belle had already been secretly snatched up?

And the one who’d plucked this flower was that ruthless guy who, half a month ago, had chugged more than ten of her water bottles in public!

This world.

It was just too crazy!

Of all the people pursuing Su Ruoxi, she hadn’t given any of them the time of day.

Her heart was set solely on this man who had chugged more than ten of her water bottles right in front of her.

"Why on earth did this happen?"

"If I had known the campus belle was into guys like that, I would have rushed up and chugged a few bottles for her back then!"

"My heart aches! The campus belle has a boyfriend?"

"My dream girl, how could you go to a hotel with another man behind my back?"

"I can’t go on! I want to die!"

...

Seeing the pained wails of the male students in the comments under the post, Lin Feng could finally be sure that the matter was indeed resolved.

Su Ruoxi’s post had successfully shifted everyone’s attention from Lin Feng’s supposed inappropriate intentions to the fact that she was now in a relationship.

This whole thing...

was resolved, just like that?

Lin Feng took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down.

He looked up at Yang Qiniang, only to find him looking deeply shocked.

"Old Lin, are you really with Su Ruoxi?"

Yang Qiniang asked in disbelief.

"What do you think?"

Lin Feng shrugged and retorted.

"I don’t know! You haven’t even seen Su Ruoxi these past few days, so logically, it shouldn’t be possible."

"But..."

Yang Qiniang stroked his chin, looking thoughtful.

"No buts."

Lin Feng stopped him from speculating further. "Can’t you see? Su Ruoxi is using her own reputation to clear my name."

With that, Lin Feng sighed and turned to walk out of the coffee shop.

Su Ruoxi had actually used her own reputation to get him out of this mess.

That was something Lin Feng had never expected.

After all, Su Ruoxi had officially announced that he was her boyfriend.

Even if he really had taken her to a hotel room and... done stuff with her, that would be their business.

It had nothing to do with anyone else!

Seeing Lin Feng leave, Yang Qiniang hurried after him, teasing, "So? Got a real headache now?"

"Definitely..."

Lin Feng smiled helplessly. "Suddenly having a girlfriend appear out of nowhere would give anyone a headache."

"So what now?"

"Should we still send the lawyer’s letter?"

Yang Qiniang hesitated for a moment before asking.

"No need."

"Since the matter is resolved, let’s have Lawyer Sun stand down for now."

Lin Feng said to Yang Qiniang as they walked toward the school.

In truth, Su Ruoxi’s approach was the most beneficial one for him.

It wasn’t that Lin Feng hadn’t considered this possibility from the start.

It was that he never intended to let Su Ruoxi sacrifice her own reputation to clear his name.

Although this incident started because of Su Ruoxi, she was only semi-conscious at the time. Getting filmed was due to his own carelessness.

That’s precisely why Lin Feng had been so angry and wanted to use legal means to defend his rights.

But now that the matter had been resolved perfectly,

there was no need for him to keep pushing it.

The school administration certainly wouldn’t want this blown up any further either.

If he kept making a fuss, he would be the one in the wrong.

"Alright."

"I’ll call Lawyer Sun then."

Hearing this, Yang Qiniang didn’t say anything more. He just pulled out his phone and called Sun Wei.

...

Meanwhile.

Inside the girls’ dormitory.

Yang Qingqing looked at Su Ruoxi, who was staring blankly from her chair.

She couldn’t help but ask, "Ruoxi, do you regret doing this?"

"Regret?"

"Why would I regret it?"

Su Ruoxi turned her head and looked at Yang Qingqing, her gaze a bit dazed.

"But..."

"Once you sent that post, your relationship with Lin Feng became completely public, you know?"

"Don’t you care about your reputation?"

Hearing this, Su Ruoxi smiled. "Of course I care. But isn’t this what I was supposed to do?"

"Lin Feng was condemned by everyone because of me."

"Of course I had to clear his name, even if it meant sacrificing my own reputation."

After hearing Su Ruoxi’s words, Yang Qingqing was stunned.

The Su Ruoxi at this moment seemed like a completely different person. Before, she would never have said something like this.

’It seems... Lin Feng has changed her so much.’
