Chapter 594: Chapter 594: Agreeing to Bind to Him

"Now is not the time to worry about what the other side wants from me."

Quan Sicheng didn’t want the agent’s attention to continue to linger on this matter.

The current urgent matter was to figure out who the woman was that day.

And who was standing behind her, helping her.

Only by identifying that person could he better manipulate the situation later on.

...

While Quan Sicheng and his agent were trying to investigate the identity of Ling Qingxue and the person behind her, Ling Qingxue’s preparations had also entered the most critical moment.

At this point, Shi Yiqing came out to stir up trouble again, deliberately revealing some "false information" online about her and Quan Sicheng.

Or rather, this was a bomb Shi Yaoguang had planted earlier.

Previously, Quan Sicheng had tried to scheme against Shi Yaoguang and had attempted to have her photographed in compromising scenarios.

But she turned the tables on him.

For a while, everyone at Ruihe High School knew that Quan Sicheng "liked men."

This time, Shi Yiqing was using this as a reason to smear Quan Sicheng.

If it was just her smearing him, that would be one thing, but the problem is that many netizens believed her words.

Indeed, there are quite a few fans of BL and GL.

But that’s all built on the foundation of the two-dimensional world.

Accepting their idol, their beloved star, their "boyfriend" as a member of the gay community is, after all, rare.

Even Shi Yiqing intentionally suggested that Quan Sicheng is gay and that the reason he was with her and became her fiancé had nothing to do with deep affection between them.

It was merely because Quan Sicheng wanted to cover up his real orientation, and the engagement was meant to make her a "beard," a deception to get married.

"I used to think that Quan Sicheng double-dating might have been an accident, but now, a whole lifetime of being labeled a marriage fraud."

"Didn’t Shi Yiqing say before that their relationship was good? Suddenly she’s making allegations that she is just a beard who has been deceived into marriage. How credible is that?"

"Maybe they had some agreement before, and now that they can’t come to terms, everything is being blown up."

"It’s possible, and if the marriage fraud is true, then I feel sorry for Quan Sicheng’s current girlfriend. Does she know Quan Sicheng is gay?"

"Maybe his current girlfriend is in on it with him?"

"Please, a man who likes men gets a fake fiancée to cover up and still wants to harm other women."

"Looking at the photos, Quan Sicheng’s current girlfriend is the ice queen type. How did Quan Sicheng manage to win her over?"

"Wasn’t it said before that Quan Sicheng was very protective of her? I feel like the woman stopped dating him because she knew about his situation, which is why she never appears in public."

"If they were really boyfriend and girlfriend, they should have come forward to clarify by now."

Because of Shi Yiqing’s troublemaking, the topic of Quan Sicheng and the two women once again surged on the trending search list.

Shi Yiqing looked at the trending content and curled the corner of her lips.

She did it on purpose.

Why should Quan Sicheng say he’s giving up on her and just do it?

They had clearly agreed to never part in this lifetime.

Not even Shi Yaoguang, the biggest threat, could break them up.

Instead, some unknown woman had managed to come between her and Quan Sicheng.

She would indeed have blown the whistle on Ling Qingxue if she knew her identity; however, it wouldn’t be through smearing Quan Sicheng.

Of course, even so, she didn’t feel any regret.

She was inherently selfish, extremely self-interested.

She was only willing to stand by his side and speak for him as long as Quan Sicheng loved her and was her boyfriend.

Now that he no longer was her boyfriend, not to mention her fiancé, she naturally didn’t need to consider too much.

Ling Qingxue, who had been busy preparing for the competition, had to stop her work and go to the instructor to ask for leave because of the issues on the internet.

"Ling Qingxue, do you realize what time it is now?"

The instructor’s face turned quite ugly upon learning that Ling Qingxue wanted to take a leave of absence.

After all, if a student’s work in a competition were to win a prize, the instructor would also be rewarded.

Therefore, when Ling Qingxue came to ask for leave, the instructor was not inclined to approve it.

If possible, the instructor wished she could squeeze an extra twenty-four hours into a day to prepare for the competition.

Instead of asking for time off on the verge of the competition to deal with so-called private matters.

Especially...

Matters of the heart!

The instructor knew exactly what Ling Qingxue wanted to do.

The instructor had also seen the trending news of Quan Sicheng’s secret hotel meeting with his girlfriend.

Although the instructor didn’t understand why Ling Qingxue’s identity had not been exposed yet, it didn’t prevent him from knowing that Ling Qingxue was Quan Sicheng’s current girlfriend.

The instructor was aware of the rumors that Quan Sicheng was a gay man who deceived women into marriage.

It was precisely because he knew this that he was even more dissatisfied with Ling Qingxue asking for leave because of such a despicable man.

Ling Qingxue had no choice; she didn’t want to take the leave of absence.

In her view, competitions were far more important than a boyfriend.

Besides, he was not even her boyfriend.

But...

The System would not support her thoughts.

After finding out about Quan Sicheng’s situation, the System assigned her a mandatory task.

She had to restore Quan Sicheng’s reputation.

And the best way to restore his reputation was for her to step forward as the "girlfriend."

Only if she spoke up for Quan Sicheng would people believe that he was not gay.

With a little guidance later, it wouldn’t be difficult to clear his name.

It was because of this that Ling Qingxue was irreversibly tied to Quan Sicheng.

This was not necessarily a good thing for Ling Qingxue.

In her opinion, she, being such an outstanding person, could marry into a wealthy family.

Moreover, her family background was not lacking at all.

It would be even better to add brilliance to an existing splendor.

Upon discovering her thoughts, the System immediately told her about how much wealth Quan Sicheng had.

Ling Qingxue was stunned upon hearing that, "Wasn’t Quan Sicheng kicked out of his home? How could he possibly have so much wealth?"

The System informed her that Quan Sicheng’s wealth was second only to the Quan Family.

If it weren’t for a lack of time, Quan Sicheng’s wealth could even surpass the centuries of accumulation by the Quan Family.

Hearing this, the little bit of reluctance in Ling Qingxue’s heart smoothed out.

Nothing could be more secure than this.

She may be proud, but she was also self-aware.

She had the eyes to discern pros and cons too.

She knew how to make the most advantageous choice.

So...

She was successfully persuaded by the System.

Sure, it meant being bound to Quan Sicheng?

In front of his wealth, which was second only to the Quan Family, her slight reluctance couldn’t even compare to a strand of hair.

...

Quan Sicheng soon received an invitation to meet from Ling Qingxue.
