From the Heavens Descended an Immortal Sister

Chapter 154: Chapter 152: Why Steal_1

After the meal, Fang Ren followed Bai Qi to their class.

But as soon as Fang Ren entered the class, he felt the atmosphere was a bit strange; no sooner had he shown his face than the entire class's gaze suddenly focused on him.

"Hey, here he comes, shut up, everyone."

"Wow, who would've thought Ranzi was already so skilled at flirting with girls, and turns out he has that kind of fetish too."

"Stop it, if this gets to the princess, it won't be good, after all, Ranzi is her betrothed."

...

Whispers erupted throughout the life of the class, which, if Fang Ren were still a normal human, he wouldn't have been able to hear. But the problem was that he had become a cultivator, and his cultivation had reached the middle stages of the Chongshan Realm, so these whispers were completely and entirely reaching his ears without missing a beat.

"I'm doomed!"

Fang Ren couldn't help but lament incessantly in his heart. The label of "Lingerie thief" was firmly stamped on his forehead now, and he was worried sick - why did he have such terrible luck to touch a piece of lingerie yesterday?

"What's wrong?"

Bai Qi looked at Fang Ren's downcast appearance, thinking he was still worried about money, and asked in a very low voice.

"It's nothing."

Fang Ren waved it off, feeling relieved that Bai Qi had not regained her full strength; otherwise, listening to all this might have caused her internal injuries.

"Yo, Lord Fang is back?"

No sooner had Fang Ren taken a few steps inside the classroom, Li Xinyue approached with a contemptuous expression and said.

"Cough cough, we're all classmates here, why call me lord?" Fang Ren said, embarrassed.

While talking, he glanced at Liu Qianqian in the front row, who was frowning at her phone, and he didn't need to guess to know what she was looking at.

"Speaking of which, Qian Qian's lingerie seems to have gone missing recently, Lord Fang, do you know where it is?" Li Xinyue turned to look at Liu Qianqian and then back at Fang Ren with a smile.

"Ah? How can you speak of such things?" Fang Ren immediately switched to Oscar Actor Mode, looking at her with feigned surprise.

Liu Qianqian, sitting in the front row, immediately put down her phone at these words, her face flushing red, and looked at Li Xinyue angrily, "Xinyue! What are you talking about!"

Then, a girl from Liu Qianqian's dormitory also chimed in, "Actually, it's true that one of Qian Qian's pieces of lingerie went missing a week ago."

"You..."

Liu Qianqian looked at the two of them, suddenly at a loss for words, her teammates always liked to embarrass her, and inadvertently hurt Fang Ren even more.

"Then why bring it up to me?" Fang Ren said, confused.

"Right, the class president lost her lingerie, why come tell him?" Bai Qi, seeing the girls coming up to Fang Ren again, said seriously, "You guys are so weird."

When Li Xinyue and the others saw Bai Qi speak up, they immediately didn't know how to continue their teasing, and their formerly disdainful expressions turned very awkward.

"Princess, I believe that as Fang Ren's betrothed, you have the right to know about this matter." Suddenly, the last girl from Liu Qianqian's dorm ran out, saying seriously.

Fang Ren glanced at the girl, feeling that she seemed to be playing for real, and a trace of panic grew within him.

Although he had never considered having any romantic feelings towards Bai Qi, it didn't mean he wasn't concerned about his image in her eyes.

"Hey! You guys are too much!"

Liu Qianqian immediately ran over, pulling Li Xinyue and the other two girls, and said seriously, "The person in the news just wore the same clothes as him, we can't be sure it was really him."

"Qian Qian, oh Qian Qian." Li Xinyue couldn't stand it anymore when she saw Liu Qianqian defending Fang Ren, and said, "Why are you so stubborn, always protecting him no matter what?"

Bai Qi, listening to the girls' brief exchange, became increasingly curious, and her expression started to get more serious.

"What exactly is going on?" Bai Qi asked.

"Your Highness, could it be that you haven't seen today's trending news yet?"

Bai Qi was taken aback, "I haven't."

"Then you'd better look at it now."

A girl immediately handed her phone to Bai Qi.

Fang Ren stood there dumbfounded. Had he managed to anger all the girls in class? What's wrong with sleeping with Xuan Nv? It was mutual consent, wasn't it? What's wrong with being Bai Qi's fiancé? He didn't want it either!

What's wrong with liking Liu Qianqian? He wasn't flirting with her right now! What's wrong with getting a bit close to Jian Qi'er? He did it for the salvation of human Cultivators!

Why did all these things in the eyes of every girl in the class count as evidence of him being a scumbag?

"Stop making a fuss, the person in the photo didn't show his face. How can you confirm it's Fang Ren?" Liu Qianqian said with a woeful face.

Li Xinyue pulled Liu Qianqian aside to a distant spot and whispered sternly, "Why do you always defend him? He's not your boyfriend!"

Liu Qianqian frowned, "This has nothing to do with whether he is my boyfriend or not. I'm just telling the truth."

"I think you just want to protect him!"

...

Bai Qi immediately took the phone from the girl. The webpage on the phone was about the trending news of the star Jian Ye, and in the middle of the page, there was a photo of Fang Ren using one hand to place Jian Qi'er's black lace brassiere over his face as he fled.

The moment Bai Qi glanced at the phone screen, her pupils dilated. The person in the picture felt eerily familiar to her, whether it was the chin revealed on the face, the physique, or even the clothes the person was wearing.

She looked back in a daze, her gaze surveying Fang Ren. His attire, hairstyle, physique... no matter how she looked at it, he seemed to be 95% similar to the person in the photo.

"Damn! How can I explain this to clear my name?" Fang Ren was utterly stunned.

"You, come with me!"

Bai Qi immediately returned the phone to the girl and dragged Fang Ren by the arm toward the outside of the classroom.

Her voice was so loud that everyone in the already quiet class could hear the anger in her words.

Under the watchful eyes of the whole class, a visibly embarrassed Fang Ren was pulled out by Bai Qi. The moment he stepped out, the classroom erupted into whispers again.

Bai Qi didn't stop until she had dragged him to a distant corner.

"Bai Qi, about this... listen to my explanation," Fang Ren said, his face awkward.

"No need to explain!" Bai Qi snapped, visibly furious.

Upon hearing her angry voice, Fang Ren was taken aback, as even if he did what he was accused of, there was no need for Bai Qi to be so angry.

"This..."

He wanted to say more, but the moment he looked up and saw Bai Qi's face, he closed his mouth again. Bai Qi was staring at him, her eyes beginning to redden once more.

She looked like she was about to cry again.

"Tell me, why?" Bai Qi asked, her eyes welling up.

"Why did this suddenly happen..."

Fang Ren couldn't understand why her eyes were suddenly red.

"Why, if you don't have the money to buy for me, would you resort to stealing?" Bai Qi shouted.

"..."

Fang Ren was dumbfounded.
