As soon as Aunt Su Qing finished speaking, I felt a burning gaze fixed on my back. I took a deep breath and quickly explained before Ge Zeyu could speak, "Aunt Su Qing, you misunderstood! That's not what I meant."

Aunt Su Qing didn't say much, only that she came up to remind us to eat, and also that Ge Zeyu and I are still young and in school, so we shouldn't cause any trouble.

Hearing these words, I couldn't help but blush. I quickly went over and pulled her downstairs, even though I had explained it many times.

Aunt Su Qing always had an expression that said, "I know everything," so in the end I just gave up.

I had breakfast with Ge Zeyu, and then got into his car and went straight to school. On the way, Ge Zeyu handed me a contract and a bank card, saying, "Zheng Yuan and the others are very optimistic about your company's intelligent robots and have decided to invest."

Zheng Yuan is the one who called me yesterday. I know that the reason they invested at this time is because of Ge Zeyu's influence.

Intelligent robots have great potential for future development, but many people are still cautiously observing, as this industry requires huge investments that most people simply cannot afford.

Moreover, because the technology for intelligent robots is not yet mature, investors have to bear significant risks.

I glanced at Ge Zeyu, signed the contract, and thanked him. He must have already read the contract when he handed it to me, and I trust he wouldn't harm me in this matter.

After receiving the bank card, I immediately called Su Jiayi to tell him that I had secured the investment and asked him to contact the technical staff as soon as possible to upgrade our core concept again.

Previously, due to insufficient funds, the intelligent robot we researched could only be considered a simplified version. Now that we have more resources, Su Jiayi is fully capable of creating a mature version of the intelligent robot.

On the other end of the phone, his tone was filled with surprise after hearing what I said. "Don't worry, this time I will definitely keep an eye on everything and there won't be any more leaks of core concepts."

After making his promise, he hung up the phone. Ge Zeyu and I went to school and returned to our respective classes.

I had barely settled down when my roommate Qin Yao leaned over and said, "I heard something recently. I heard that Young Master Fu went to your house to propose marriage a couple of days ago?"

"Who told you that?" I couldn't help but ask back, feeling that the news was spreading far too fast, but I still hadn't been able to find out the source.

Qin Yao glanced around and then told me that it had already spread all over the forum, supposedly by one of Fu Xinyi's lackeys.

This news stunned me for a moment. After I came to my senses, my first suspect was Fu Xinyi. How could anyone around him dare to release this news without his authorization?

What benefit does he get from doing this? Is he planning to force marriage in this way?

"Those rumors on Tieba are all false. Fu Xinyi and I will not be married." I said this with absolute certainty, and the classroom fell silent for a second or two as soon as I finished speaking.

I subconsciously looked up towards the door. Fu Xinyi walked over with his little follower. He came up to me and took the initiative to say, "He's the one who leaked our affair. It's my fault for not keeping a close eye on the people around me."

He pushed a tall, thin boy out from behind him and said, "Wu Jun, hurry up and apologize."

After saying that, he assured me that he would clarify the matter with the classmates later.

His sincerity dispelled my initial doubts about him. Fu Xinyi had no reason to put on such a show; it wouldn't benefit him at all.

However, I didn't ask him to clarify. Some things get worse the more you try to explain them, and making such a fuss over a rumor would only give people a bad impression.

After Fu Xinyi left, Qin Yao was still teasing me, "Wanwan, now you're a celebrity at our school. It won't be long since school starts and Young Master Fu will be pursuing you."

"When half of the girls in our school heard about this, their hearts were almost broken. They were extremely enamored with Young Master Fu."

I shook my head, indicating that none of this had anything to do with me. Even if Fu Xinyi was popular with girls, it didn't mean I had to like him.

I listened quietly to the lectures all morning and caught up on the notes I had missed. Then, at lunchtime, Qin Yao and I went to the cafeteria to get our food.

Along the way, many people looked at us with strange eyes, and as soon as we walked past, we could vaguely hear whispers and pointing behind us.

Qin Yao looked at herself, then at me. "Why do I feel like everyone around us is staring at us? Even if Young Master Fu likes you, there's no need for them to point and whisper like this, is there?"

After walking a few steps, she suddenly encountered an acquaintance and quickly went over to her. After exchanging a few words, the stranger glanced at me and then hurriedly left.

When Qin Yao came back, she didn't look well. She looked like she wanted to say something but couldn't, which made me realize that something must have happened.

"What happened? If you know, you might as well tell me directly, so that I won't be kept in the dark."

"You should check the school's online forum!" She took out her phone and brought it close to my face. "Right now, there are rumors circulating at school that you're two-timing and flirting with people."

Upon hearing this, I couldn't help but frown. I noticed a forum about me that was gaining popularity, with several clear pictures attached.

One photo is of me getting out of Fu Xinyi's car and talking to him through the car window. The other photo is of me picking up Ge Zeyu last night, when Ge Zeyu pulled me and I ended up lying on his lap.

Because of the dim light and the angle, I was kneeling on Ge Zeyu's legs, making it look as if I were giving him oral sex.

The comments about me on the forum are endless, and many male classmates are even saying disgusting and misleading things.

They even said that someone with my looks must be expensive, and some directly asked how much it cost, wanting to try it out.

Looking at the screen full of yellow junk, my expression gradually turned cold. Someone was deliberately trying to cause me trouble.

It's a perfectly normal thing, but because of the angle, everything becomes abnormal.

Seeing that I looked unwell, Qin Yao quickly comforted me, "Why don't you just go talk to your advisor? If this continues, it won't be good for your reputation."

"Thank you for telling me this, otherwise I don't know how long I would have been kept in the dark." I sincerely thanked him and made up my mind to find the person who posted the message.
