He Xiyan paused and her eyes widened. She looked at Yang Jing before she shook her head.

“There isn’t a rich boss,” she said softly.

Yang Jing chuckled in disbelief. She suddenly tugged on He Xiyan’s sleeves and dragged her out of the classroom.

“What’s wrong?” He Xiyan asked in confusion because she knew that Yang Jing was looking for a quieter place.

“Yan Yan, there are rumors circulating among our classmates that you have a sugar daddy. There are even photographs of you being picked up by a luxury car circulating around. You might not know about this but you’ve been the subject of gossip,” Yang Jing said softly. She had heard her roommates gossiping about her friend that morning.

She refused to believe that He Xiyan was that sort of woman and had even stood up for her friend by arguing with her roommates for some time.

She had seen those photographs and also noted that it was indeed a luxury car. She didn’t recall Yan Yan ever having such rich friends.

He Xiyan’s heart dropped.

She finally understood why her classmates were looking at her so strangely earlier.

How could those people speculate based on unfounded rumors?

Yang Jing gave He Xiyan a pat on the shoulder and said, “Don’t tell me that the rumors are true and that you’re actually dating some rich boss?”

“Of course not!” He Xiyan said agitatedly.

She would rather go out to the streets and beg for money rather than be a kept woman of a sugar daddy.

Yang Jing frowned and at her friend in puzzlement. Then, she suddenly asked with a smile as realization dawned, “Was that him? Are you and that guy…”

Yang Jing’s voice trailed off.

He Xiyan had no intention of keeping this from her friend either so she nodded.

She had been planning to introduce him to her friends when the timing was right.

Yang Jing’s eyes immediately widened and her jaw fell open.

“Oh my god… I can’t believe it…”

Yang Jing couldn’t believe that the man who was driving such a nice car to pick her friend up from the university campus was the same man she had dismissed as being selfish and petty.

She couldn’t believe that he had actually appeared.

He Xiyan nodded once again.

Her lips suddenly curved into a blissful smile.

“I’m dating him, Jing Jing.”

Yang Jing was speechless and she didn’t know how to react.

She had to admit that she was surprised by this result. Naturally, she still wasn’t fond of that man.

She frowned and let out a soft sigh.

“Yan Yan…” she finally said softly, “Don’t get too involved with him. If he is as rich as our classmates make him out to be, then he might not be sincere about you. It would be good for you to maintain some rationality while dating him.” She warned her friend.

She didn’t want to dampen her friend’s spirits because she could see how happy and excited her friend was about dating him.

He Xiyan nodded gently and said, “I will.”

She noticed several classmates staring at her strangely when she returned to her classroom and there seemed to be a disdainful look in their eyes.

She didn’t make any effort to explain things to them.

There were some things that didn’t require any explanation.

She went to the cafeteria to eat after class and ordered a portion of sweet and sour pork and a fried egg with vegetables.

She decided to eat at the cafeteria now that she was no longer staying at the student’s hostel. She found an empty seat that was near the wall and started to have her meal alone.

She was halfway done with her meal when two of her classmates walked toward the table that was two tables away from her.

She looked up at them and noticed that they didn’t seem to notice her.

Soon, she heard them gossiping.

He Xiyan paused and her eyes widened. She looked at Yang Jing before she shook her head.
