Chapter 34: Chapter 34 Notification

"Rong Zhi."

Ying Hengyu nonchalantly reached over and pulled the boy chatting with Lu Zhao into his arms, introducing, "It’s him, he’s just been acknowledged back. Our family and the Rong Family are in-laws, so wouldn’t that make him my cousin."

Initially, Rong Zhi wanted him to call him Third Brother, and even under such humiliating circumstances, Ying Hengyu was extremely unwilling.

But he couldn’t beat him, and his looks were no match for Rong Zhi’s. Aside from giving in and submitting, what else could he do?

Besides, considering Rong Zhi’s ability to easily beat him to the point of not being able to get up, he was quite willing to call him brother.

Shen Ting was so exasperated by this display of siding with an outsider that her temple throbbed with anger.

The great opportunity right before them was ruined by him. Shen Ting pried his hand off Rong Zhi, giving Rong Zhi a subtle push, almost growling, "Shut up! Get out, I’ll help you get justice!"

Rong Zhi stepped back half a step, glancing at his shoulder.

Ying Hengyu frowned at this, "Mom!"

He broke free from Shen Ting’s grip, grabbing Rong Zhi’s arm, irritated, "Although I don’t know why you are targeting Rong Zhi, since I am not hurt, this matter ends here."

"Ying Hengyu!"

With Shen Ting about to explode in anger behind them, Ying Hengyu pulled Rong Zhi and ran off quickly.

The situation was abruptly cut short by Ying Hengyu’s forceful intervention.

Rong Zhi was dragged along by him all the way to the shaded area of the sports field.

She stood by the big tree, watching Ying Hengyu catch his breath against the trunk.

"Was it worth it?"

No matter how far they had run, even Ying Hengyu, who prided himself on his stamina, was tired. Meanwhile, she stood leisurely as if nothing had happened, her breath calm and relaxed.

Ying Hengyu’s dark pupils shifted, "Don’t you even need to catch your breath?" He paused, chuckling lightly, "Whether it was worth it or not, this is just how my mom treats me. Don’t worry."

Although he spoke lightly enough, his tone was evidently tinged with a trace of melancholy.

Rong Zhi casually put one hand in her pocket and chose not to expose him.

On the way back to the classroom, her phone suddenly rang.

Rong Zhi took it out and saw it was a familiar number before casually answering.

"Grandpa Zhao."

The other side was silent for a moment before an amiable voice came through, "I heard from your master a while ago that you were in Beijing. Unfortunately, I was abroad. I just returned to the country today. Do you have time to have a meal together?"

"I do on the weekend." Rong Zhi gestured for Ying Hengyu to go to class on his own, her response succinct.

She had just started school; repeatedly requesting leave wouldn’t look good.

"Then let’s meet over the weekend. Where are you staying now? I’ll have someone pick you up."

Rong Zhi thought for a moment and gave him the address of Huqing District.

The other party agreed, and the call ended.

Returning to the classroom, her desk and chair were already set up. After the incident during morning study, no one in class two dared to provoke her, and the morning passed uneventfully.

At noon, Rong Fengmian came to find her for lunch in the cafeteria.

Just as they reached the cafeteria entrance, someone suddenly jumped out in front of them, blocking their way.

Rong Zhi lowered her eyes casually, finding the person before her slightly familiar.

The red dress was replaced with a school uniform, heavy makeup on her face, hair loose, looking even more rebellious than Rong Zhi.

"Hey there, we meet again! It must be destiny!"

Shen Luoluo’s crimson lips curved upward, her eyes twinkling with stars.

Rong Zhi recalled softly, "It’s you."

Shen Luoluo nodded enthusiastically.

Noticing the estrangement in her tone, she twirled her fingers apologetically, "Last time, it was my brother speaking out of turn. I’m here to apologize for him, sorry!"

Shen Luoluo, known for hanging out with Ying Hengyu, was similarly recognized in their circle. Her shout quickly attracted a group of people around them.

They recognized Rong Zhi and began whispering among themselves.

Among the whispers were words like "illegitimate child," making Rong Fengmian’s face turn ugly immediately.

Ying Hengyu and his friends heard this just as they arrived, his brow arching as he glared at the boy who first mentioned "illegitimate child," his tone fierce, "Illegitimate your mom’s illegitimate. My Third Brother is a legitimate Third Young Master of the Rong Family. Who the hell are you to speak nonsense?"

The boy flinched at his scolding but quickly widened his eyes, retorting stubbornly, "It’s already spread around. Everyone’s saying it, so yelling at me is useless!"

Others chimed in agreement.

Ying Hengyu clenched his fist in anger, his sharp eyes showing rage. Shen Luoluo’s face was equally dark as she was about to speak up—

"Hello everyone, I am Yao Xiaoshan, the headteacher of the senior year. I am here to make an announcement."

Just as the cafeteria atmosphere was tense, the broadcast suddenly started.

"Regarding the comments on the forum yesterday, our school has completed an investigation. Upon verification, the students Gao Wei and Mo Jia Shi from Class 36 of the senior year spread rumors and slander online, with severe and vile intentions, severely violating our school’s discipline."

"The two students are hereby publicly criticized and suspended from classes for a week."

A single announcement stirred up a great commotion.

Everyone was in an uproar.

"Rong Zhi was wronged?"

"I knew it! How could a boy with such a refined temperament be an illegitimate child?"

"But Gao Wei and Mo Jia Shi had no grievances with Rong Zhi, so why slander him?"

"Could this have been orchestrated by Rong Zhi himself?"

As soon as someone said this, they were met with a bunch of eyes that seemed to look at an idiot.

Why would anyone in their right mind orchestrate something to smear their own name? Were they full after a meal?

Ordinary people see the surface; insiders see the depths.

After listening to the broadcast, Ying Hengyu narrowed his eyes, suddenly speaking, "I remember those two morons like Rong Meng."

Actually, Gao Wei and Mo Jia Shi weren’t the only ones; many at school liked Rong Meng, known for being talented and beautiful as recognized by everyone.

But Ying Hengyu wasn’t interested in her, though he often heard Bai Yang mention about others expressing concern to Rong Meng with love letters, particularly from the idle crowd in Class 36.

As soon as Ying Hengyu’s words fell.

Connecting this with his previous angry scolding, those who reacted quickly had an epiphany.

Rong Meng is the second young lady of the Rong Family, and Rong Zhi is the third young master. The post was filled with slandering Rong Zhi, and the timing was perfectly plotted.

When everyone’s curiosity and attention towards Rong Zhi were at their peak, it suddenly appeared, striking Rong Zhi with a deadly blow, crushing him in the muddy water.

If it really was Rong Meng who did it.

Then such scheming was too deep.

...

Classroom of Senior Grade One.

Rong Meng continued doing her homework without raising her head after listening to the broadcast.

Yang Yuli, full of anger, muttered, "Incompetent."

Even a small matter could be traced back to her; it was utterly useless!

The school’s forum was abuzz.

"Come on, let’s discuss, what did Brother Yu’s last statement mean? Could it really be Rong Xiaohua behind this?"

"If nothing happened, don’t mention it. Rong Xiaohua is attending classes properly in the classroom, totally oblivious, okay?"

"Heh, really oblivious or feigning it? Rong Zhi was insulted without her speaking up to clarify, and they call themselves family, tsk tsk tsk."

Indeed.

Many started discussing the Rong siblings.

At seventeen or eighteen, teenagers’ imaginations ran wild, even bringing up conspiracy theories.

Other students in the class began to look at Rong Meng differently.

Rong Meng raised her head, meeting the eyes of others, feeling a chill in her heart.

"What’s going on?"

Yang Yuli showed her the phone, frowning, "Check the comments."

Rong Meng quickly scrolled through, her face growing darker with each line.
