The Scheming Ex-Husband's Courtship-Chapter 14 - All the major websites were plastered with it

"I'll walk you back to the dormitory, so you won't have to listen to those people's nonsense," Chen Yishu said with concern, his gaze filled with expectation.

"No need, I don't want to drag you into this, who knows what they'll say about you."

"Who cares what they say, they won't say it to my face anyway, I can't hear it, it won't bother me, I don't care."

"But I care." Gu Qili looked at him with defiant eyes, "It's okay if they talk about me, but I can't let you become the subject of gossip because of me. You are the eldest son of the Chen family, if your family finds out you're friends with someone like me, they won't stand by and do nothing."

He opened his mouth to argue, but Gu Qili gently shook her head: "I should head back, I still have classes in the morning, thank you for today."

He knew her temperament, but he was not willing to stay silent.

Watching her lonely figure receding into the distance, Chen Yishu punched the poplar tree beside him, the pain making him more alert.

He believed that Gu Qili was not the promiscuous type, but the person in the photo indeed looked exactly like her. If it wasn't her, she could have explained it, but she seemed to tacitly admit it instead. He couldn't understand why she would do this, what benefit swallowing this bitter pill would bring her.

She had always been so stubborn, keeping all her secrets and grievances to herself and never sharing even a bit with him. He knew it was because he did not weigh enough in her heart, not enough for her to spill everything.

Mickey was just about to get out of bed when she saw the person pushing the door open, she was so surprised that she just stared with her eyes wide open for a long time before understanding, and hurriedly climbed down from the upper bunk.

"Qiqi, didn't I tell you not to come to school today?"

This girl, why doesn't she listen to her advice.

Gu Qili placed her backpack on her desk, took out the bread she made in the morning and handed it over: "I wanted to go to the cafeteria to buy you some hot breakfast, but please make do with this."

Mickey took the soft bread with both hands tightly squeezing: "You already know?"

She nodded slightly, putting the extra books from her backpack into the drawer, then picked up some books for today's classes from the shelf, acting like nothing had happened.

Mickey pulled a chair over and sat next to her, speaking with a worried face: "It's not just the bulletin board, all the major websites of the school are plastered with it."

Gu Qili's hand that was pulling out books paused for a moment, then clenched into a fist, her nails digging into the tender flesh of her palm, a twinge of pain gnawing at her heart.

"That's why I told you to lay low for a while, after some time, when the heat dies down, everyone will naturally forget."

"If someone is deliberately targeting me and hasn't achieved their goal, how could they easily let it go? I might as well face it head-on and see what they want to do." Gu Qili reorganized her backpack and smiled at Mickey, "Anyway, I've been prepared to fight to the bitter end."

"Qiqi." She held Gu Qili's cold hand, her thumb gently rubbing the palm, "The person in the photo isn't you, right?"

Without waiting for an answer, she also took her other hand, looking at her earnestly with bright eyes, "Look at me, am I being silly for asking such pointless questions? Whether it's you in the photo or not doesn't matter, I only know the current Gu Qili, I know she is a student with both integrity and good grades, a bro ready to take a knife for her friends, a kind and independent good young person, that's enough for me."

Gu Qili gripped her hands back, her eyes moistening, and leaned in to embrace her.

"Thank you, Xiao Mi, your compliments are making me cringe."

"Being polite for what? Oh, and for lunch, I'm treating you to rice noodles, we'll go to the cafeteria with the bulletin board outside. I don't believe anyone dares to mess with you while you're eating."
