unbelievable. She didn't resist, perhaps because of his rare tenderness today, perhaps because of his rare patience in accompanying her aimlessly today, perhaps because he protected her so much, stoo...Chapter Name: 113
"You --" Jiang Yancheng was angry. How could he have such a silly son, who kept blackening his own name (..) Using this way to blackmail his own father, he was quite capable!
"You little rascal!" Jiang Yancheng muttered under his breath, but he helplessly agreed anyway. Because he knew his son's character all too well – once he set his mind on something, there was no turning back. And he would definitely do things like knowing full well there was a cliff ahead, yet stubbornly charging straight into it!
"Alright, I'll let this one slide. Just be good for me now, or else…" Jiang Yichen let out a cold snort, revealing a menacing aura.
Jiang Po's heart skipped a beat. He knew his father was not someone to be messed with. If he angered him, he would start causing trouble. So Jiang Po immediately made a promise before hanging up the phone.
When Jiang Po浪 was being led to the principal's office by his homeroom teacher, he had already prepared a speech and mentally prepared himself to face Lin Meng. He thought he would have to shamefully face Lin Meng's accusations; he would have to look at himself and others who became accomplices with shame, pushing all the blame onto Mengmeng; he would have to painfully see Lin Meng looking at him with disbelief and silently accusing him. But he didn't expect that everything he had imagined before this girl seemed so ridiculous! She didn't give him a chance at all. She took on all the blame alone, willingly and forcefully. He suddenly felt that this girl was so great, and he, on the other hand, became so small.
He bowed his head, his heart aching with pain.
"Jiang Po Lang, this has nothing to do with you. Go back first!" The big leader said so, apparently wanting to remove Jiang Po Lang from these disturbances because he had been warned by Jiang Yan Cheng before.
Jiang Po Lang didn't want to, he was more willing to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with this girl and face the wind and rain together. But when he thought of his father, he had to bow his head and leave like a coward. As Gao Gan's son, perhaps in many people's eyes, it seemed so glamorous, almost doing whatever he wanted, almost able to control everything. But sometimes, it was such a helpless and pathetic state of being.
When God closes a window for you, he will surely open another. That's probably the reason. When he can enjoy some resources better than others, he must inevitably pay a price for it, such as having to compromise at this moment. Because with his status, his father absolutely does not allow any blemishes. To completely erase this blemish, his father would definitely do something extreme.
And he, could only protect this girl in this way of escape!
He was dragged out by the homeroom teacher, but his heart felt strangely empty. He had never thought that his current status was anything bad. For over ten years of smooth sailing, he had been unrestrained and flamboyant. But now, all of a sudden, he felt some confusion about this identity!
In the principal's office, the interrogation of the top leader continued. Lin Meng answered calmly and composedly one by one, but for those utterly baseless accusations, don't expect her to admit them. For example: she had improper relationships with many men outside the school, and she directed people to assault girls from a neighboring school.
The big leader was very dissatisfied with this answer. He thought that such a calm girl must be lying, and he also felt that this girl must be used to lying, so she could be so calm and collected!
Lin Meng, I'm giving you time to think about how you want to answer! There's no wall that can keep secrets forever. If you cooperate honestly now, we can try to lessen your punishment. (..tw好看的小說) But if you don't cooperate, then you'll have to wait for us to find out everything, and at that point, the punishment will be much heavier. Let me make this clear: if you continue with this attitude, you could be expelled. And I think other schools won't want you either!
That's a heavy punishment! It basically means that Lin Meng's student days are over.
But Lin Meng really didn't care anymore!
If she sets her mind to leaving and distancing herself from all this gossip and drama, then what in the world could possibly stand in her way What could hold her back What could frighten her!
"You go check it out!" She raised her chin arrogantly, smiling. "I'll certainly cooperate nicely!"
This smile, however, is not without irony.
The great leader frowned, troubled in his heart, and let Lin Meng leave.
As soon as Lin Meng stepped out of the office, the big leader couldn't help but let out a cold snort. "This girl, she's really troublesome!"
Principal Chen's face stiffened for a moment, then he gave a dry chuckle in agreement, but his heart sank. Because he hadn't anticipated this; perhaps some bigwig had called him again! However, he reminded himself to be cautious about everything. He could try his best to cooperate with the current leader, but he absolutely couldn't harbor any ulterior motives to suppress Lin Meng!
This content was first published by Xiao Xiang Academy.
Lin Meng was summoned to the principal's office for a talk, escalating the situation. Often, people gossiped and spread rumors just for amusement, engaging in idle chatter that inadvertently harmed the individuals involved. They discussed Lin Meng, looking at her through tinted glasses—with disdain, suspicion, or curiosity. These mixed emotions had one common outcome: gradually pushing Lin Meng into a corner.
“What should we do now!” Su Xue seemed anxious.
But Lin Meng just smiled faintly. "It's okay, don't worry!"
She was just looking for an opportunity to leave. Before she left, she really wanted to figure out where these suddenly inflated rumors came from. She didn't want to leave in such a confused way. As the saying goes, even if you have to die, you should die with understanding; she wanted to leave, but first she needed to understand, otherwise she would be entangled in this matter forever.
There's no smoke without fire. This matter must have a source. When the high-ranking official from the Education Bureau said he would investigate, Lin Meng felt that was actually a good thing. It suited her intentions perfectly, saving her from having to search blindly like a headless fly with no leads.
Su Xue was getting a little anxious, this wasn't something that could be brushed off. She glanced around and had to pull Lin Meng aside. Then, still alert, she leaned into Lin Meng's ear and whispered, "Can your family member help!"
Lin Meng was stunned, staring at Su Xue with wide eyes. At that moment, she couldn't help but wonder if Su Xue knew something! Otherwise, how could she say "the one in your family"!
"Su Xue…" She spoke with difficulty, her small hand trembling.
Su Xue grabbed Lin Meng's novel and shook her head. "Don't overthink it, I won't say anything. I just saw the news on the outside paper, your family's... and another girl..."
Speaking of this, it's enough to say that there's meaning behind it. Su Xue had seen Rong Ling before. This man was covered in the major newspapers of City J. There were too many legends and astonishing abilities about him. It would be hard not to make a deep impression on people!
Moreover, although Rong Ling was careful, his feelings would always get the better of him. When he left a kiss mark on Lin Meng's neck, Su Xue discovered it and guessed their relationship wouldn't be difficult at all!
She knew about the relationship between Lin Meng and Rong Ling from the very beginning, but she just kept it to herself.
Now that such a thing has happened, it's best for Rong Ling to come forward and resolve it. I believe, with that man's ability, he should be able to resolve this matter perfectly. What Su Xue is uncertain about now is whether the relationship between Lin Meng and Rong Ling is still as harmonious as before. The tabloid has been tracking Rong Ling and a woman named Qing Yun these days, and it seems that the two are getting closer and their feelings are deepening. This is not a good sign at all, and Su Xue can't help but worry. So, in a moment of distress, she had to ask Lin Meng like this.
Lin Meng lowered her head, but she didn't know how to answer. In her heart, she had already made a decision. She would absolutely not go to ask Rong Ling for help. Giving her self-respect to that man to trample on once was enough, how could she be so cheap as to offer it again! Besides, that man might not even help! And she didn't really need his help!
"A-xue, don't worry, it's alright!"
Su Xue frowned and leaned closer to Lin Meng's ear again. "I only ask you, will your family help you!"
This clever girl knew very well that if Rong Ling didn't show up, things would get very troublesome for Lin Meng! Of course, it would be good if there were any other big figures who could show up. But Su Xue only knew that Lin Meng had Rong Ling by her side, but she didn't know who else could be considered a big figure!
Lin Meng was silent because she had no answer. Seeing Su Xue anxiously pacing back and forth, she couldn't help but smile, using a smile to comfort this friend she had only known for a short time, but who genuinely worried for her.
"A Xue, this matter doesn't need his help, I can manage it!"
Su Xue's heart skipped a beat and sank.
What!
This word, how heavy it is. This silly kid doesn't realize! And some things, are not something those thin shoulders can bear!
Could it be that Rong Ling truly put aside his pipa, only smiling at the newcomer and showing no sorrow for the old Has he abandoned this girl!
She frowned deeply, Su Xue stopped talking, but she had an idea. Because her father was hospitalized due to illness and needed someone to take care of him, she was specially approved by the head teacher to skip evening self-study. Walking with Lin Meng, after Lin Meng entered the Wenqu District, Su Xue didn't go to the hospital where her father was staying, but instead went to j Second Hospital. This was the hospital where Qingyun was currently located, according to reports in the local newspaper. Thanks to the gossip in the newspaper, Su Xue had learned a lot about Qingyun. When she arrived at the inpatient department, she easily found the orthopedics department and inquired about Qingyun's ward from the on-duty nurse, naturally claiming to be Qingyun's friend.
After that, she found the place without much difficulty. She knocked on the door and said she wanted to change her medicine. When the girl who opened the door was stunned, she swaggered in and acted as if it were nothing special. I have to say, this girl's ability to improvise under pressure is really impressive!
She entered the room and didn't see Rong Ling. She let out a surprised "Eh" and asked, "Where's the nurse!"
The girl who opened the door was stunned, along with the quiet air inside the room. She asked Su Xue what she was doing. Su Xue said she wanted to find a nurse for a bandage change. The girl who opened the door immediately chuckled and kindly pointed Su Xue in the right direction, telling her to go to several offices near the exit that were clearly marked as "Nurse's Office". This girl thought Su Xue was just careless and had walked into the wrong room.
Su Xue apologized and then retreated. Then, the door to the ward closed. This was a private room that paid great attention to patient privacy. Closing the door actually made it more convenient for Su Xue to wait near the door for Rong Ling! The tabloid described Rong Ling as being extremely caring towards Qing Yun, visiting her several times every day. She was certain that Rong Ling would definitely come later.
As expected, that man who was too handsome and too confident appeared afterwards.
Su Xue walked directly two steps forward, blocking Rong Ling's path, and raised an eyebrow.
"Rong Ling, let's talk!"
Rong Ling also raised an eyebrow because he had seen Su Xue before, at the time when Lin Meng was hit in the face with a soccer ball and helped back home. If this girl came for Lin Meng, then he didn't want to talk; if not for Lin Meng, he didn't want to talk even more.
"I think that's unnecessary!" He turned his head and gave a look to one of the two bodyguards following him. The burly man in black received the signal and took a step forward, intending to send Su Xue away.
Su Xue suddenly pulled down her face and shouted fiercely, "Rong Ling, don't make me look down on you!"
Feng Ling suddenly found it interesting. What qualifications did this girl have to speak to him like that! Whether she looked down on him or not was her business, did he need her approval! But because of this sense of amusement, he could spare some time to chat with her.
"One minute!" he gave the time.
Su Xue glared inwardly, thinking to herself that men truly weren't any good. They could spend a lot of time with women, yet be so stingy about giving her even a minute. Hmph!
But thinking of the purpose of this trip, she immediately put her emotions in order and said with a cold face: "As a man, you should be responsible. Since you raised someone, you should take good care of them. Otherwise, you might as well not raise anyone, acting like you're occupying the latrine but not pooping!"
The following statement is obviously an insult.
The burly man in black, upon hearing this, frowned and narrowed his eyes, taking another step forward. His imposing presence was quite intimidating, as if he were about to teach someone a lesson. The man stood over six feet tall and looked incredibly muscular. If he landed a punch, bones would surely break!
Su Xue was so frightened that her heart skipped a beat. Luckily, Rong Ling reached out in time and blocked the way of the man in black. Seeing this, the man in black took half a step back and said nothing.
Su Xue only then let out a slight sigh of relief.
Nǎ biān róng líng mǐ le yǎn, xīn tóu yǒu le bó nù. Dàn xiǎng, zhè jiù shì Lín mèng zhǎo lái de shuō kè ma, zhǐ shì zhè jī yàng fǎ, zài tā miàn qián kě shì xíng bù tōng a! Zhǐ shì, zhè yòu shì tā de shǒu bàn le, tā yuè duì tā yòng shǒu bàn, tā xīn tóu de yàn wù gǎn, jiù zhǐ huì yuè yào duō. Nà ge xiǎo nǚ rén, zì yǐ wéi cōng míng, què shì yuè huó yuè shǎ le!
Let me know if you'd like a translation of this into another language!
"You'd better go. Talking won't help!"
"Then just let her go! What's the point of holding on" Su Xue looked at Rong Ling's cold face and boldly confronted him. "I think, without you, there would be plenty of other men willing to help her out! Although she might not be able to stay in school for much longer now, I don't think she necessarily expects your help!"
Are you about to quit school
Rong Ling frowned, though she didn't like Lin Meng's cunning ways. Hearing this, her heart was instinctively tugged at. So, she took the initiative to ask.
What does that mean!
Su Xue didn't dare to provoke the man further, knowing that someone of his stature likely had little patience for ordinary people. Immediately, she spilled everything, recounting the events in detail. After finishing, she looked at him with a glimmer of hope.
"You'll help, right!"
Rong Ling bit her lip tightly, but the anger in her heart completely took over!
"Leave now!" he shouted coldly.
Su Xue's mistake was that she shouldn't have said everything, including photos of Lin Meng and Jiang Po浪 kissing together, as well as rumors about Lin Meng's character being questionable and having an inappropriate relationship with other men! Rong Ling originally wanted to vent his anger at Lin Meng and didn't want to go back to see her. He was still considerate enough to run to Qingyun's place, just hoping that Lin Meng could reflect on herself. But she not only didn't reflect, but instead, got involved with another man!
Still waters run deep!
Rong Ling thought, if Lin Meng hadn't really done something, how could things have escalated to such a degree!
Ask him for help, he's not currently thinking about it!
Su Xue was a little anxious and couldn't help but yell. "What do you mean You have to give me an answer!"
Rong Ling glared coldly, causing Su Xue's body to tense up in fright. Such an air of authority from someone superior could be felt just from a single glance, leaving one feeling immense pressure.
He strode away, and the burly men in black naturally parted for him, pushing Su Xue aside. Su Xue was shoved to the side and wanted to yell, but she hesitated. Because, Rong Ling's gaze just now was truly intimidating. She felt like she had been targeted by a ferocious tiger, as if she could be torn apart at any moment. When she saw Rong Ling enter the ward, and then two men in black stood on either side of the door like gatekeepers, she couldn't help but stomp her feet in anger!
"Damn man!" she couldn't help but curse.
Over there, a burly man shot over a cold glare, as if he was about to make a move. Su Xue, wise to the situation, wisely shut her mouth. However, before leaving, she still shouted loudly.
"Róng Línng, you better not regret this! Hmph!"
The last "hmph" was deliberately emphasized. Then, he turned and left!
While Rong Ling didn't seem as indifferent as Su Xue thought. Although she entered Qing Yun's ward, she just sat there with a cold face, not even looking at Qing Yun. Qing Yun tried to start a conversation, even her friend tried to liven things up, but it was obvious that Rong Ling wasn't in the mood to talk. One cold glance sent the two girls silent, afraid to say another word.
They may be proud and arrogant, but in front of Rong Ling, they can only fawn. If Rong Ling is unhappy, they will naturally be careful to accompany him and would never dare to disobey him.
Now, Rongling's mind is filled with thoughts of Lin Meng.
Su Xue mentioned Lin Meng and Jiang Po Lang, but remained vague. Rong Ling didn't know what the little woman had done with Jiang Po Lang, nor when they had become attached. So at that moment, the possible guesses swirling in his mind made him feel uneasy, or rather, restless. He didn't stay for even ten minutes before turning and leaving. He didn't even utter a word to Qing Yun from beginning to end!
This girl, to him, was simply inconsequential. She was just a plaything for his boredom, a game he could join and leave whenever he pleased. He didn't need to say a word, nor did he have to acknowledge her at all. That was the difference between a doll and his woman!
Lin Meng was his woman. He sometimes even had to give her a heads-up if he left. So, at such moments, even if he was angry or annoyed with her, but -- he just couldn't let go!
As soon as he left the hospital, he immediately called his men and ordered them to investigate Lin Meng's affairs. They had to find out everything about her past at school, clear and concise, and then report back to him!
Whether he cares or not is one thing, but to have control over her information is another matter altogether!, she didn't go to see Jiang Yichen. Firstly, she didn't want to make things awkward, and secondly, after so many years, that couple might have finally had their emotional wounds heal a little. She, t...
