Chapter 107: 107 cyberbullying

"What kind of love potion did Jiang Chen feed Shu Rui?"

Guo Ran found it hard to accept this fact.

As a roommate and good sister, she was very aware of the number of men surrounding Li Shuru, among whom there were more than a few with outstanding family backgrounds and handsome appearances, far better than Jiang Chen. Yet, Shu Rui didn’t seem to be interested. So why now...

For a girl to proactively confess her feelings for a boy, how strong must her fondness be, not to mention Shu Rui’s personality.

Could it really be just because of the life-saving favor from last time’s mountain climbing?

Guo Ran wasn’t the only one who couldn’t understand; Xu Siyi was also at a loss.

She was jealous of Li Shuru, no doubt, but jealousy stemmed from knowing the other person was better than oneself.

This sycophantic Jiang Chen, even she didn’t take a fancy to him, so why would Li Shuru be so blinded?

Was she really going to witness with her own eyes the fairy tale of a toad lusting after swan meat?

Compared to Xu Siyi and Guo Ran, Zheng Jingjing was slightly less mentally impacted by Li Shuru’s heart laid bare, but it was only a tad less.

She knew Jiang Chen wasn’t as bad as rumors suggested, but she had never expected Li Shuru to be the first to fall.

Looking at the situation now, why did it seem like Shu Rui was the proactive one?

Zheng Jingjing couldn’t help but feel a sense of absurdity.

"Aren’t you going to class?"

Li Shuru looked at the three women huddled together and muttering.

"Coming."

Zheng Jingjing snapped back to reality and signaled Guo Ran and Xu Siyi with her eyes.

The four of them walked out of the dormitory.

"Shu Rui, I think you should still think it over. You and Jiang Chen have only known each other for a month. The time is too short," Guo Ran gently reminded on the way to the college.

From her standpoint, without any prejudice, she still felt that Shu Rui and Jiang Chen weren’t quite suitable for each other.

Putting other things aside, if this couple were to really come together, what kind of huge waves would it cause in the school?

"Shu Rui, I also think Ran Ran is right. You need to be calm. With your standards, being with Jiang Chen is truly a loss," Xu Siyi spoke her mind directly, undoubtedly implying that Jiang Chen wasn’t worthy.

Zheng Jingjing, however, didn’t offer an opinion.

Li Shuru let them talk, remaining silent.

But how could the girls who knew her character not understand what such silence meant?

After a moment of hesitation, Guo Ran still couldn’t hold back her intense curiosity and asked, "Shu Rui, what exactly do you like about him?"

Was it really just for the life-saving grace from last time?

Guo Ran felt that there was definitely more to it.

Jiang Chen’s heroic rescue, while touching, surely wasn’t the only reason Shu Rui would risk her life. There were definitely others willing to do the same for her.

Just under Shu Rui’s starry social media account, how many had shouted their willingness to go through fire and water for her, numbering in the thousands?

Moreover, Shu Rui wasn’t so sentimental as to blindly "offer her body" just for the so-called life-saving grace.

So what was the real reason for her first-ever admission of feelings for a man?

"I can’t explain it; you’ll understand eventually," Li Shuru did not explain, nor could she. Since Jiang Chen wished to live his college life low-key, she of course would not disrupt it.

And furthermore.

As for matters of the heart, who could clearly articulate the why?

"Shu Rui, look," suddenly said Zheng Jingjing, gesturing toward the front side.

Li Shuru followed her gaze and quickly saw a girl with twin ponytails chatting with friends, coming towards them from the opposite side of the road.

It was clear that the arrival of this girl had diverted much of the attention originally cast on her.

"That’s Luo Li’er. The love letter Jiang Chen wrote was for her."

Xu Siyi spoke softly, piercing through the secrecy.

Watching the girl who was even more popular and capable than herself at school, Li Shuru’s expression remained calm, showing little emotional fluctuation.

As if sensing something, Luo Li’er also looked over in their direction, her gaze colliding with Li Shuru’s.

Their eyes met in the middle of the street, with no sparks flying.

Passing students glanced over here and there, excitedly whispering among themselves.

Soon, the two groups crossed paths on opposite sides of the street.

"Why do guys like this type? I really don’t get it."

Xu Siyi muttered.

"I think she’s quite pretty, you know, youthful-looking, like a doll. I bet even when she’s in her thirties or forties, she won’t look old."

Guo Ran stated her impression.

"It’s just acting cute, isn’t it? Anyone can do that."

Xu Siyi dismissed with a curl of her lip.

"Come on. She’s our junior. Can’t you show a little dignity as a senior? People will think we’re jealous."

Zheng Jingjing joked, while surreptitiously observing Li Shu Rui’s complexion, noting no change.

Upon arriving at the Arts College, a few familiar girls saw them and, as if something had happened, hurried over.

"Shu Rui, you’re being cyberbullied!"

"What do you mean?"

Zheng Jingjing was baffled.

"Someone on Star Sky posted that Shu Rui has been kept by someone. I saw a lot of people commenting about it."

Zheng Jingjing was stunned, involuntarily turning to look at Li Shuru.

"Right, we saw it too. Some even disclosed that you’re a student at Dong University. Shu Rui, have you offended someone?"

The other girls quickly nodded in agreement.

Li Shuru’s involvement in livestreaming was no secret, and many people were aware of it.

Moreover, she wasn’t the only one in the Arts College working in that industry.

An unusual gleam flashed in Xu Siyi’s eyes, then she feigned indifference, "Don’t talk nonsense. Is Shu Rui that kind of person?"

"Of course, we know Shu Rui isn’t."

The girls hastily replied, "But Shu Rui, we think you should clarify this. If we could come across it, then others definitely could as well."

"How can you clarify something made up out of thin air?"

Guo Ran frowned.

A girl hesitated, then looked at Li Shuru cautiously and said, "They claim you were kept by that what’s-his-name... Han..."

She couldn’t recall the name at that moment.

"Han Jiang’s Lonely Shadow. Shu Rui, they say that’s the person who’s keeping you, and some even say some very nasty things, even claiming there’s a video circulating!"

Another girl took over the conversation.

"A video?"

Zheng Jingjing was taken aback. As an adult, she knew exactly what that implied and immediately became indignant, "That’s a sheer slander!"

"Shu Rui, isn’t he your top fan? I heard he sent you gifts worth millions?"

The girls looked at Li Shuru with envious eyes.

Now they finally understood where she got the money for the suddenly purchased sports car.

"Alright, this matter is completely fabricated. The gifts were voluntarily given by someone who admires Shuru. Those people are blatantly slandering her. Zhang Xiaoning, you all should not spread these rumors."

Zheng Jingjing spoke seriously.

"We definitely won’t talk about it."

The girls quickly assured, but whether they would keep their promise, only heaven knew.
