Bigoted Mr. Fu Lets Me Do Whatever I Want

Chapter 40: Scandal

Chapter 40: Scandal

After Fu Tingyan’s departure, Qin Shu remained rooted to the ground. She could not imagine the pain Fu Tingyu must have felt in his heart after he got so grievously injured and found out that she was on a hunger strike.

She thought about what happened before they went on the island, specifically Fu Tingyu’s enraged actions, the day he punched Shen Yaohui in school without restraint, and the things they did within the one hour of their return home...

The wound started from his right shoulder.

Qin Shu’s tears streamed down her face silently. She dared not bring herself to continue to think about this or try to imagine how many times his wound must have reopened.

How could he not love and treasure himself?

All she wanted to do now was go and see that silly man. That man was so silly it made her heart ache.

Before there was time to wipe her tears, Qin Shu grabbed her backpack and ran out of the classroom.

However, someone stopped her the moment she reached the entrance. “You’re Qin Shu, aren’t you?”

Qin Shu looked up when she heard the voice. The first thing she saw was a glimpse of the school badge on the other person’s school uniform. He was from the adjacent school, Huafeng High School.

Her gaze trailed upwards as she studied the man who had stopped her in her path. He was about 1.89 meters in height and looked rather mature. He was masculine, handsome, and his raised eyebrows made him look hostile.

He was Han Xiao, the person rumored to be her boyfriend last semester. He was the King at Huafeng.

On top of that, he had repeated his third year thrice and had never taken the college examinations before.

Rumor has it that anybody who provoked him would not be met with a good end, and that included women.

If Qin Shu had not seen a photo of him that a female classmate had posted on the school forum, she would not have recognized Han Xiao.

There were several girls at Linxi who had a crush on Han Xiao.

Qin Ya was the one who had fabricated news of a relationship between Qin Shu and Han Xiao on the school forum. Her goals were to tarnish Qin Shu’s reputation, incite widespread anger toward her, and to provoke Han Xiao into dealing with Qin Shu.

Qin Shu swept her gaze across the three guys standing behind Han Xiao. They were good-looking, but they looked like gangsters.

If she was not mistaken, someone must have notified Han Xiao about her return to school.

Qin Shu directed her gaze back to Han Xiao, “Firstly, we don’t know each other. Secondly, I have to rush home. Please excuse me.”

“Eh, you’re pretending to not know who Han Xiao is after taking advantage of him? Do you know how long he has been looking for you?” Hua Wuyan could not resist laughing out loud.

The corners of Qin Shu’s mouth twitched.

Han Xiao gazed coldly at Qin Shu, at her palm-sized face and wide, reddened eyes hidden beneath her jet-black hair. It was obvious that she had just cried.

“Were you the one who told everyone that we were dating?” Han Xiao asked.

“I’m also a victim of this rumor. In fact, I think you’re the one who took advantage of me because I have really high standards.” The moment Qin Shu said those words, gasps were heard all around her. All three men turned their gazes to Han Xiao, whose complexion grew ashen.

Qin Shu continued, “In fact, you can very easily clarify this rumor by personally posting on the forum. I know you’re going to ask me why I haven’t done the same, but that’s because no one will believe me even if I do. Anyway, I have an urgent matter to deal with, so I’ll make a move first.”

Qin Shu swept her gaze across the men that stood in front of her again before she turned around and left quickly.

She really hoped that Han Xiao would clarify the rumor on the school forum, even one short post from him would do.

Otherwise, his fangirls at Linxi would never let her go.

Qin Shu hurriedly made her way toward where the car was parked.

“Han Xiao, are you okay?” Hua Wuyan could feel the coldness radiating from Han Xiao’s body “Is this a huge blow to him?” he thought.

“I agree with what Qin Shu said. You just have to clarify the rumor on the forum and people will stop misunderstanding your relationship with her,” Hua Wuyan reminded him.

“She wants to make use of me to clear this rumor, why should I do what she wants?” Han Xiao said as he glanced at Hua Wuyan.

Hua Wuyan was speechless.

What an unusual path to take...
