Chapter 612: Chapter 612: Emptiness in the Heart

Qu Ruorui initially felt a bit guilty, but she soon became righteous and indignant.

"It was your Jiang gege who asked me to watch over you, and contact him if anything happened."

She didn’t want to act like a spy, but who could blame her when those people had been increasingly overbearing and unpleasant in their words recently.

Qingqing didn’t care, yet she felt aggrieved on her behalf.

So she had no choice but to invoke the mighty presence of Jiang Jingze.

Anyway, as long as Jiang Jingze showed up, anyone with eyes could see that Qingqing could not possibly have anything to do with Sun Tianyu, and all rumors would naturally be clarified.

But Qu Ruorui hadn’t expected Jiang Jingze to arrive so quickly; she had only discreetly notified him the night before.

Could this be love?

Qu Ruorui thought she must write everything down and later share it with Wei Rong.

It was said that Wei Rong had recently been submitting short stories to magazines, perhaps she could weave these events into her writing.

Yue Qingqing saw Qu Ruorui daydreaming, seemingly lost in thought, and felt somewhat helpless, "Don’t bother him for no reason in the future."

It wasn’t anything major, yet he had come all the way from Beijing. Just thinking about it made her feel troubled.

However, Jiang Jingze muttered, "It’s no bother."

Zhuang Lan immediately followed up, "Now that you’re here, Scholar God, why not share some study tips with me? I heard it was you who tutored Yue Qingqing in mathematics?"

He was keen on making the most of the situation, and Jiang Jingze glanced at him.

"Let’s eat first."

The four of them went to the Four Seas Restaurant, and upon entering, Zhuang Lan looked around.

"This place resembles the one in Zhuancheng."

Qu Ruorui snickered.

How could it not? It was clearly designed with intention, perhaps even decorated for Qingqing.

Note it down, note it down, all this is writing material for Wei Rong.

After the meal, Jiang Jingze answered some of Zhuang Lan’s questions.

Zhuang Lan specifically asked the waiter for paper and a pen to take notes, feeling like he had gained a lot.

Jiang Jingze obviously made time to come here amidst his busy schedule, and after a short delay, he checked the time.

"I have to go."

As he spoke, his gaze remained solely on Yue Qingqing.

In front of her friends, Yue Qingqing blushed a little.

"Then be careful on your way, and have a safe trip."

At the school gate, Yue Qingqing mustered the courage to say, "Take care of yourself. I won’t have any trouble here, you know me."

Even if there were troubles, Yue Qingqing actually could solve them herself.

The reason she didn’t was that in her eyes, these were all trivial matters.

"I know, but I can’t help worrying."

Jiang Jingze looked at Yue Qingqing, feeling a strange throbbing in his chest.

He wished he could shrink her down to a tiny size, so small that he could put her in his pocket and carry her with him everywhere.

He was aware of Yue Qingqing’s capabilities, which were probably even greater than he had imagined.

But still, he couldn’t bear to see her slighted in the least.

Qu Ruorui whispered to Zhuang Lan, "Why are we still standing here?"

Couldn’t he see they were sharing a private moment of farewell? Why was Zhuang Lan standing there like a block of wood, unmoving?

Zhuang Lan asserted righteously, "I want to bask more in the aura of the Scholar God."

After the Q&A session, he couldn’t help but idolize Jiang Jingze even more.

Qu Ruorui: "...You really are something."

Talk about basking in the aura of the Scholar God, didn’t Feifei say this guy was quite materialistic? She couldn’t see that at all.

Jiang Jingze waited until he saw Yue Qingqing enter the school, not leaving until her figure was out of sight.

Yue Qingqing felt as if a piece of her heart was empty, and it took days for her to recover.

But Jiang Jingze’s appearance had been remarkably effective; all the rumors melted away as quickly as ice and snow in spring, leaving no trace.

The high-profile couple Sun Tianyu and Zhou Xitong formally announced their breakup.

Those present that day could plainly see that it wasn’t Yue Qingqing who was coveting Zhou Xitong’s boyfriend.

It was clear as day that it was Zhou Xitong, the missy herself, who had set her sights on Yue Qingqing’s boyfriend.

Tsk tsk, how quick they were to cast stones, what were they themselves?

The news had spread so widely that even Lin Yushan had heard about it.

The two of them joked about it over lunch.

"Heard there’s a missy who’s taken a fancy to your Jiang gege?"

Yue Qingqing’s chopsticks dropped a meatball into her soup bowl with a plop, splashing her face.

"Ah? How did you know?"

"My boss’s daughter is also at your school; I heard your love quadrangle has been the talk of the town."

Yue Qingqing felt a headache coming on, "It’s all baseless rumors, like three men making a tiger, who knows what it’s morphed into now."

All she wanted was just to study in peace.

Lin Yushan teased her, "Don’t worry, in the story you’re the innocent victim slandered and full of unspoken grievances until your domineering boyfriend rushes to the school to defend your honor."

Yue Qingqing: "..." What a mess of a story.

Lin Yushan found her reaction amusing and was about to say more when suddenly her expression shifted slightly.
