Chapter 1489: gossip.

It was 11: 00 in the morning and xiang yi had just finished two classes. now that she had no classes, she could go home if she wanted to. she could even stay at school for lunch.

However, before she could make up her mind, shi caining called her.

“daughter, are you alright? do you want to go home for dinner?”

“i don’t have any classes in the afternoon. if you want to go home, go home!” xiang yi paused for a moment and noticed that many of her classmates were looking at her strangely.

If she was eating in the cafeteria, she would probably be annoyed by this strange gaze, right?

“xiang yi…” shi cai ning paused for a moment, but she did not know how to speak.

Xiang yi laughed lightly, “mom, i already know about what happened on weibo and the forums. but i haven’t gone up to take a look yet, so you don’t have to worry. you’ve given me a prophylactic shot before, so i can take it.”

“your father will take care of this matter for you. don’t go up to take a look,” shi cai ning urged.

“okay, i understand.”

“the driver has gone out to pick you up. he’ll be there in about ten minutes,” shi cai ning said gently. “don’t care about other people’s opinions, and of course, don’t care about the rumors that hurt you. we live by ourselves, not for others.”

“okay! mom, i’m really fine!” a smile finally appeared on xiangyi’s face.

After hanging up, she looked up and realized that there was someone waiting for her.

That person was bai lingze. he saw xiangyi’s sparkling eyes and felt his face burn slightly. however, when he thought about what had happened online, he couldn’t help but worry for her.

If xiangyi saw such an embarrassing weibo post and the comments of many people, would she be able to bear it?

“shall i send you home?” bai lingze walked up and said in a low voice.

Xiangyi shook her head. “there’s no need. my chauffeur has come to pick me up.”

Bai lingze stole a glance at her pretty little face. his face was slightly hot. he lowered his head to hide the tenderness in his eyes and said coldly, “my chauffeur’s car is outside. you can ask your chauffeur to go back.”

“there’s no need.” xiang yi was silent for a moment. “lingze, i…”

Bai lingze’s heart sank slightly. for some reason, he kept feeling that xiang yi was distancing herself from him.

“the comments on the internet… you don’t have to care. everything will be settled by my parents,” bai lingze said in a low voice.

Xiang yi smiled. “i don’t care. it’s just that my chauffeur is here, so i don’t need to trouble you.”

“why don’t… you come to my house for dinner?” bai lingze looked at xiang yi again, the pleading in his eyes becoming clearer.

Xiang yi shook her head. “my mom has already prepared dinner. maybe next time!”

After she finished speaking, she took her backpack and strode away.

Bai lingze immediately followed her footsteps. of course, there were quite a few discussions behind her.

“did you see that? that seems to be the daughter of the richest person on the internet!”

“i never thought that the newest school belle of our qing university would be the daughter of the richest person!”

“ha, so what if she’s the daughter of the richest person? isn’t she just fooling around with her cousin?”

“don’t say it so loudly! at least the bai family and gu family are respectable people. those photos are just for shopping. it doesn’t prove that they’re dating!”

“look at them. how could they not be dating?”

Xiang yi arrived at the school gate. after waiting for ten minutes, the driver appeared in his car.

Bai lingze had been accompanying her. although the two of them were silent, his concern made xiang yi’s heart warm slightly.

Although he didn’t explain much, he was still accompanying her. under all kinds of stares, he had never thought of retreating.
