Chapter 69 A Slap

  "It seems that your brain is really different from others. Can't a country girl buy a laptop? Can't a country girl make money with her own intelligence? If I'm a country girl, then what are you? Look at yourself, which part of you is better than me, this country girl? What makes you feel so good about yourself? When you have time, take a look in the mirror and see that you're not even human inside and out." Ning Qingming heard Du Shurong's words, clearly doubting the origin of his money, even hinting that it might be earned by selling his dignity, and he couldn't help but burst into anger, taking a few steps to stand in front of Du Shurong, pointing at her nose and scolding her loudly.

  "What's good, Qingmian? Which aspect are you inferior to her in? Every time you open your mouth, it's like a country bumpkin. Just because you're from the city, you think you're more noble than others? You have the ability to buy a laptop, but others can't?" Wu Meimei and Mo Xiaohong had originally packed up their things and were about to leave, but when they heard Duan Shurong speaking nonsense, they quickly walked over to Ning Qingmian's side to show their support.

  "What did I say wrong? Look at the branded goods on her, each piece costs hundreds of yuan, I just don't believe she has the ability to afford these luxury clothes!" Duan Shurong took a step closer to Ning Qingmian and glared at her fiercely: "Don't think that just because you're dressed up a bit, you can become a phoenix from a sparrow. You still dare to confront me, aren't you afraid I'll expose your ugly secrets?"

  Some classmates who were about to persuade Ning Qingmian looked at her with suspicious eyes. Yes, Ning Qingmian changed quickly, from a rustic girl at the beginning of last semester to a fashionable and elegant one this semester, often seen running out of school and taking taxis. After hearing Du Shurong's words, everyone had an epiphany, it seemed that Ning Qingmian was kept by someone!

  "Duan Shurong, you're getting more and more absurd." Mo Xiaohong and Wu Meimei had already learned from Zhou Ling that Ning Qingmin was doing business on his own, and based on their trust in Ning Qingmin, they absolutely didn't believe Duan Shurong's wild guesses. However, seeing Duan Shurong's words causing suspicion among other classmates, they also got anxious, and pulled Zhou Ling over, saying: "Zhou Ling, you know the most about Qingmin's affairs, you tell us!"

  "Duan Shurong, what are you talking about? Qingmian indeed bought a stall with her own skills and is doing business while studying. She's living such a hardworking life, how can you say that about her?" Zhou Ling saw Ning Qingmian getting angry and jumped in to help, "At the beginning of the semester, she signed up for three storefronts at Xinwang Plaza, using all her savings of 6,000 yuan as a deposit. She then sold two of them and used the profit to officially buy the third storefront to run her business..."

  Other classmates also learned for the first time that Qingming was doing business outside, and after hearing Zhou Ling's rough explanation, they all opened their mouths in surprise: "Qingming is so impressive, she even bought a house!"

  "How can I believe that!" Duan Shurong said coldly: "Just based on your one-sided words, you've blown her up to be so amazing. And she's not even an economics major, nor has she entered society, yet she somehow knows how to speculate in commercial real estate and buy a house? Who knows how she actually bought it?"

  Xiao Ye Sheng frowned as he listened to Duan Shu Rong's words, and at this time stood beside Ning Qing Mi, saying lightly: "Duan Shu Rong, don't make groundless speculations, Qing Mi is absolutely not the kind of person you think she is."

  "Not what I thought, is it what you guys think? I just don't believe she has such great skills, like a fortune teller or something, and yet she's so accurate, buying the shop space will make money?" Duan Shurong saw that Xiao Yesheng was also helping Ning Qingmian, and she wouldn't let up.

  "Never mind, people like her have dirty thoughts in their minds, don't say so much to her." Ning Qingmin took a deep breath, "The clear will be clear, the turbid will be turbid. Moreover, my affairs do not need to be explained to her."

  "It's unnecessary to explain. Or is it that you can't explain?" Duan Shurong thought she had grasped the handle. Smug and complacent. "And who knows how many men have played with her already. Still pretending to be pure!"

  Du Shurong's voice fell. "Slap" sounded. Her face was slapped hard. She took a step back. The notebook in her hand fell to the ground. One foot tripped on the table and chair. She stumbled and almost fell. She let out a sharp cry, not daring to believe she had been hit.

  Everyone was still in shock. Suddenly, Xiao Ye Sheng raised his hand and said with a furious expression: "Duan Shu Rong, with your character, I even doubt how you managed to get into university? This slap is from Qing Min."

  Xiao Ban Chang, who had always been polite and courteous, actually hit someone! He hit someone for Ning Qing! The classmates were extremely shocked. For a moment, it was quiet. No one spoke up.

  Ning Qingmian was also stunned. She didn't expect Xiao Yesen to hit a girl for her. Xiao Yesen's personality had always been gentle. But this time...

  Zhou Ling's mouth opened wide, then quickly closed again. The corners of his eyebrows twitched with excitement. He grasped Ning Qing's hand tightly and squeezed it hard to show that he was broad-minded and magnanimous.

  "Wo, you actually hit a girl?" Duan Shurong covered her face and looked at Xiao Yesheng in disbelief. "I'm going to report this to the TV station and tell them you hit your female classmate!"

  Everyone was stunned for a moment, oh yeah, Xiao Ye Sheng is now a star, and he has to take care of his public image. Doing something like this, physically hitting someone, is exactly the kind of thing that the entertainment tabloids love to report on.

  Jiang Mingzhi hastily pulled open Xiao Yesen, softly advising: "Yesen, you're a public figure now. If you hit your classmate and she really reports it, with so many witnesses, it'll truly affect your reputation. Just apologize."

  "Duan Shurong, if she reports this, can get a title like 'White Horse General Anger Hits Classmate Girl'. Lu Yang held up the notebook he had just asked Xiao Yesen to sign, standing by and watching the excitement, "If it's hyped up, it might be more interesting than a play."

  "Yes, when we read the entertainment section of the newspaper, aren't they always reporting on celebrity news? Our Xiao Dong hasn't had any negative news yet. If there was a report called 'Xiao Dong's Assault Record', the newspaper might even sell well." The other two classmates also started discussing it.

  When Ning Qing heard the words of his classmate, he suddenly remembered that Xiao Ye Sheng was now popular. If Duan Shu Rong really reported it, this kind of thing would be stirred up and would be extremely unfavorable to Xiao Ye Sheng, and he couldn't help but feel regretful.

  Zhou Ling also found it difficult, looking at Xiao Yesheng and saying in a low voice: "Xiao class leader really acted impulsively, now is not like before, still have to take care of one's own identity, hit someone and there will be trouble."

  Xiao Ye Sheng resolutely refused to apologize to Duan Shu Rong, and instead turned to Ning Qing Mi and said: "Qing Mi, I believe in you!"

  Ning Qingmin looked at Xiao Yesen, and for a moment, he was filled with mixed emotions. There were tears welling up in the corners of his eyes. When he had been treated unfairly, his eyes had always been dry, but when someone showed him care and concern, he felt like crying.

  "You just wait, this isn't over yet!" Duan Shurong said tearfully, not even taking her textbook as she pushed through the crowd of onlookers and rushed out.

  "Su Rong, wait for me!" Li Xiuzhen hurriedly helped her carry her books and chased after her.
