Chapter 301: Chapter 305 Bragging to the Skies (Part 6)

Wang Xiaochuan still managed to grasp several key words.

"bbs"

His phone was a hand-me-down from several owners, a model so outdated it was considered suitable only for the elderly, and naturally, he didn’t own a more expensive computer either.

He was studying electronic information technology, and when he needed a computer for homework, he had to use the school’s computer lab, which cost just one yuan for an hour’s use.

This time, Wang Xiaochuan had neglected everything else. As soon as he returned from his job nearby the school, he headed straight for the computer lab.

He quickly saw the prominently featured, pinned post on the forum.

The content made him especially furious, but besides being angry, he didn’t know what else he could do.

He had no choice but to send a formal message to the forum’s administrator, requesting the deletion of the post.

This kind of post that ruined a person’s reputation should not exist.

Little did he think, Wang Xiaochuan knew that Xin Yue’s retaliation had begun.

Because of this, he had already lost his tutoring job.

Zihan was similarly troubled.

She had been unaware until that evening when one of her closer dormitory mates pulled her over to her computer and pointed out the highlighted post, urging Zihan to read it.

The comments under the post had piled up significantly, and they varied in content.

Most were mocking Wang Xiaochuan and puzzled over Zihan’s choices.

As for Xin Yue, who was also a key player in this scenario, he was barely noticeable in the blur.

...

139th floor: If I’d known Zihan’s standards were so low, I would have made my move earlier. Why wait for Wang Xiaochuan to charm the campus beauty into his arms?

140th floor: Seems heroes see eye to eye, I was thinking the same as the gentleman above. Just looked closely in the mirror and found I’m far better than Wang Xiaochuan, no comparison.

141st floor: Look this way Zihan, both my parents are civil servants, we own two apartments in Shanghai, a family car, and I’m an only child... Choosing Wang Xiaochuan is nothing compared to choosing me.

...

259th floor: I heard that Wang Xiaochuan’s mother is a wealth tycoon, is that true...

260th floor: I heard that Wang Xiaochuan has a luxury mansion and several cars at home.

261st floor: Although Wang Xiaochuan looks simple, his family seems to do charity work, they are quite rich.

...

Zihan, infuriated, rapidly scrolled through the mouse wheel, quickly skimming the post.

The further she read, the topics turned increasingly off-track, and the assertions became severely inaccurate.

In the end, words Wang Xiaochuan had never uttered were attributed to him.

Typically starting with "I heard...", many who were uninformed looked at this young man who supposedly bragged excessively and felt contempt and disdain.

Everyone online took pleasure in criticizing Wang Xiaochuan. What was initially spreading only on the University City forum quickly caught the eye of an entertainment journalist, and the matter escalated quickly.

Wang Xiaochuan had become an internet celebrity overnight, his fame rivaling that of Sister Feng, who once thought her intellect and beauty were unparalleled in history.

Zihan’s face turned as red as boiling shrimp, muttering, "How can they say such things..."

"Nonsense."

Curiously, her dorm mate asked Zihan, "Do you really like Wang Xiaochuan?"

It must be more than just a fling, right? The dynamic between the two was the classic contrast of a rich beauty and a poor boy, the difference between them was immense.

She couldn’t believe that such a gorgeous goddess would actually fall for a penniless boy.

"Xiao Chuan is good-looking. When he first entered the campus, other girls were interested in him too...even our neighbor, the one who always seems to clash with you, had her eyes on Wang Xiaochuan for a while. But now look..."

"Her boyfriend is the type like Xin Yue."

Zihan glared at her, annoyed, "Xinxin, how can you say that?"

"Can emotions be measured by material things or anything else? You’re tarnishing it."

"You all don’t understand Xiao Chuan, how can you talk about him like that... He’s the most compassionate person I’ve ever met."

"He would share his steamed bun with stray dogs and cats, and he even tutors some migrant workers’ children for free. Can’t a person have some flaws?"

"Unlike those princely types like Xin Yue, who just love to show off and boast in their circles, why don’t you go diss him?"

Seeing that Zihan was genuinely angry, Xinxin didn’t dare say too much, considering it insignificant, but still agreed, "People online, well, they just love to talk nonsense behind the screen."

Zihan grabbed her bag and prepared to go out, worried sick. Probably Xiao Chuan had also seen the messages on the forum by now. What if he was very upset?

As Zihan had thought, Wang Xiaochuan was indeed very angry.

Walking out of the school computer lab in a daze, he felt an echo of an experience from his childhood.

In middle school, the only time he fought with someone, he had been seriously reprimanded by the school.

It started because a chubby classmate couldn’t stand the friendly gestures of the class beauty towards him and sought an opportunity to provoke.

In the end, annoyed and embarrassed in front of everyone, he shouted, "You’re an illegitimate child raised without a mother."

Wang Xiaochuan punched the chubby boy in the eye socket and retorted loudly, "I have a mom. She’s gone abroad to make big money and she’s going to take me with her."

From then on, the reputation of being a braggart was pinned on him.

His classmates all knew his family was so poor they could barely afford the school fees, and he only had an incapable father at home.

He had never seen his mother.

That time, he was hurt for a long time, a feeling Wang Xiaochuan thought he could never forget in his life.

This time was no different, feeling helpless and distressed, and what he feared most was that Zihan would see it too.

Would she think her boyfriend was embarrassing her?

Wang Xiaochuan feared that if people talked too much about their mismatch, it might actually sway Zihan’s heart.

The rare warmth that hadn’t been tested yet might be ok, but having tasted it once, to have it taken away, Wang Xiaochuan felt he might go insane.

Just earlier in the computer lab, he had casually checked the IP of the poster, and it showed his next-door dorm room.

In the same specialty, he believed that the person also trusted that he could trace it, but there was no attempt to disguise it, clearly not worried about him knowing.

Indeed, now Wang Xiaochuan knew who was targeting him, but he was powerless to do anything about it.

At most, he had technically hacked the post earlier, but in a moment, the previously hidden content was restored.

He didn’t have so much time to keep wrestling with those people.
