Seven seventy

e clamped his hand around her waist and murmured in her ear, "Does your waist hurt"Only then did she realize that his voice was unusually husky, that particular tone he had during intimacy, so familia...After two days, when it was time to return to school, Lin Meng felt a bit uneasy. (..tw無彈窗廣告) When she left before, she didn't even take leave, and she didn't know if her family had helped her submit a leave slip. As the familiar campus got closer and closer, her heart raced.

She sat in the back seat with him, but she only had a large stack of documents on her lap and was going through them one by one. She wasn't interested, nor did she intend to pry. She didn't disturb him. Rong Ling was just taking her here, and afterwards, he should have something else to do.

As soon as the car stopped, Rong Ling raised his head from the documents and asked in a flat tone, "Arrived"

"Hmm." Lin Meng picked up her backpack and grinned at Rong Ling before turning to leave. Rong Ling reached out and pulled her back. She looked at him in confusion, and he leaned over and gently kissed her forehead. Then, he patted her head and said, "Go!"

Like coaxing a child!

Lin Meng's face flushed red, she opened the car door and slipped out.

Seeing her enter the school gate, Rong Ling only faintly instructed the driver to start the car. Then, he took out his cell phone and dialed a number. "Dajun, check on Lin Meng for me. I want all her information over the past period of time, including what she has done, who she has contacted, where she has been, and so on. The more detailed, the better. I want to see your report on my desk as soon as possible!"

He answered smoothly over there.

The reason I waited until now to check was naturally to avoid being overheard by Lin Meng and causing unnecessary trouble!

Rong Ling hung up the phone, lowered his head and continued to look at the data in his hands, as if he had done nothing before.

Xiao Xiang Academy first release.

Although it was still early, not many people were around the campus. Those who were there went straight to their classrooms. However, as the school flower of No. 4 Middle School, Lin Meng was a well-known figure. Naturally, her appearance attracted some attention.

Lin Meng noticed someone pointing at her and whispering behind her back, even staring at her as if she were a monster. She had no idea what was going on. She pursed her lips but still went straight back to class without being distracted. The buzzing classroom fell silent the moment she arrived. It was too quiet, as if she had truly become a monster, but not a frightening one. Rather, it was a kind of monster that people disliked and didn't want to see.

Her heart sank. Past experiences gave her a bad feeling. Lowering her eyes, she returned to her seat without a word.

The classroom was eerily silent, an unnerving stillness that felt like everyone was holding their breath. Many pairs of eyes were intently focused on her, but she had no idea what they hoped to glean from her. It was a dreadful feeling. Lin Meng took out her textbook from her bag and arranged it roughly according to today's lesson plan. When she placed her bag on the table, she turned her head to look to the side. There, sat her two best friends!

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, she opened her mouth. "Haoqing, Xiaomeng, come here!"

Her two best friends should know what happened.

Yang Haoqing and Zhu Xiaomeng, whose names were called, slightly changed their expressions, seeming a little unwilling. However, they still stood up and followed Lin Meng out. As soon as Lin Meng left the classroom, there was an immediate "buzz" inside, a commotion that seemed like it would explode.

Even if Lin Meng was stupid, she knew the problem definitely lay with her.

She stopped in the corridor, a little farther from the classroom. Seeing that no one was coming, Lin Meng stopped and looked at Zhu Xiaomeng and the other person, frowning deeply with worry.

"What's going on!" she asked.

Zhu Xiaomeng and the other looked at each other, seemingly not knowing how to speak. After a while, Zhu Xiaomeng broke the silence, cautiously probing: "Mengmeng, who was that man that day!"

Lin Meng's heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly remembered that day, she had left her two friends behind. She must have been seen by them when she came before Rong Ling. Then, did they also hear what she said to Rong Ling about being taken care of!

Lin Meng's heart was a little chaotic, she bit her lip and could only feign ignorance and ask: "Which man!"

Zhu Xiaomeng rolled her eyes and said impatiently, “Could there be any other man It's the one you performed 'Roadside Daredevil' for that day! He was tall and handsome from afar. Later, he even took you away. Don't you remember him”

"Oh!" Lin Meng feigned understanding. "You're talking about him Oh, him... he's a friend of mine!"

"Just friends!" Zhu Xiaomeng was suspicious. "Mengmeng, you're not a good friend! You even plan to hide this from the two of us!"

Lin Meng frowned, not daring to meet Zhu Xiaomeng's eyes, and explained in a low voice; "Really, just friends!"

But it sounded a bit forced, couldn't fool the clever Zhu Xiaomeng. Zhu Xiaomeng pulled her face down and was unhappy. "Alright, Mengmeng, at this point in time, you are still hiding things from us. Mengmeng, you've changed so much these days, keeping so many secrets, you weren't like this before!"

Lin Meng felt a bit embarrassed and was speechless after being called out by Zhu Xiaomeng. She hadn't even told her closest people about what had happened to her these past few days!

Zhu Xiaomeng kept talking to herself. “Didn’t you ask him to support you With that kind of relationship, how can it just be friends! I went to your house to find you, but you weren't there. When I asked your sister, she said you moved out. Hey, are you living with a man! That man looks very wealthy, hehe, Mengmeng, you’re so mean, oh! You met such a handsome guy and didn’t tell your best friend!”

Lin Meng panicked, her hands trembling slightly. Her voice trembled as she retorted, "You... you're talking nonsense!"

"Humph, that's not nonsense at all!" it was Yang Haoqing, who had been silent the whole time. "Your business has spread all over school, how long do you intend to keep it a secret!"

The whole school knows! Lin Meng was so shocked she almost jumped up, her lips turning pale as she stared at Yang Haoqing, asking in a weak voice, "What... what do you mean!"

"That's exactly what I mean!" Yang Haoqing shrugged and said impatiently, "You don't know, because of your things, both me and Xiao Meng have been pointed at and gossiped about these past two days, it's terrible!"

Since we're friends, there should be some responsibility shared!

Lin Meng was taken aback. "What's wrong Yang Haoqing said I was in trouble!" Lin Meng suddenly felt angry. "Could this be because you and Xiao Meng told someone about it!"

That day's events were witnessed by her two best friends! They told others, and she was gossiped about. How could they blame her in the end

This, however, was a misunderstanding by Lin Meng.

That day happened to be the weekend, and there were many people on the street. There were also students from No. 4 Middle School. As a school beauty like Lin Meng, she was very eye-catching. Besides, when she was desperately running in the traffic just now, she was still very noticeable. Immediately, those who knew her saw her. It happened that there were a few girls standing not far away at that time, watching Lin Meng's performance from beginning to end and hearing what she said to Rong Ling. In the end, they watched as Lin Meng was embraced by Rong Ling on the shoulder and affectionately got into the car. After that, Lin Meng disappeared, and she didn't show up at school for two whole days.

Rong Ling is so handsome, with an amazing aura and he looks wealthy. He's just the perfect leading man in every girl's dreams! The gossipy girls spread the news like wildfire during Sunday's after-class period, and by Monday, almost everyone knew about it. Zhu Xiaomeng and Yang Haoqing also wanted to share the news, but they planned to find out what was going on first before making a big splash. They hadn't expected to be beaten to the punch. However, during the escalating rumors, the two of them did play their part. After all, they were Lin Meng's best friends and had been with her that day. Their loose lips almost turned the gossip into fact!

Today's biggest news at No. 4 Middle School is -- the beautiful school flower Lin Meng has finally been taken care of by someone.

Perhaps because of human prejudice or jealousy towards beautiful things, many people seem to believe that beautiful women only have beauty and lack substance. Therefore, they can only rely on their looks for a living, which means selling their charm. Many people even subconsciously position beautiful women as mistresses or third parties. The term "fox spirit" seems to have become a unified label for them!

Lin Meng being kept by someone seemed to have finally achieved "universal expectation," everyone wasn't surprised, feeling as if it were only natural. They were so excited they couldn't contain themselves, jumping up and down like clowns, repeatedly chewing on this news, eagerly hoping to glean from the snippets of information the man behind it all, uncovering the hidden events between these two people.

Before Lin Meng entered the campus, those strange looks she felt were mostly due to this. It can only be said that this year was probably her unlucky year!

Yang Haoting didn't expect Lin Meng to suddenly say such words, directly pushing the blame onto her. She felt that Lin Meng seemed to have become smarter now, which made her a little wary. ( ..tw好看的小說) After all, she was just a high school student. Although Lin Meng didn't hit the nail on the head, she wasn't far off either. This made Yang Haoting's face change slightly. After panicking, she hurriedly refuted, pushing everything onto those few girls who had been seen on the street. Then, she muttered repeatedly for a while.

"This has nothing to do with me, I didn't say anything. It was those girls who said it. Don't believe me Go ask others... I didn't say anything at all... We're still good friends, right I haven't even had time to cover for you, how could I do this... Mengmeng, you really misunderstood me..."

Zhu Xiaomeng had always been the class monitor, she was an experienced one and naturally wouldn't be as flustered as Yang Haoqing.

"That's enough, just shut up." Zhu Xiaomeng pushed Yang Haohui, who was still muttering incessantly, organizing her into disarray. She turned her head and asked Lin Meng.

"Mengmeng, things have gone this far, you shouldn't keep it from me and Haoqing anymore. We three are best friends after all. Tell us about what happened with that man, and Haoqing and I will help you figure out a plan. As the saying goes, three carpenters can beat Zhuge Liang. Together we can come up with a solution to erase those rumors!"

What a tempting offer! In the past, Lin Meng would have definitely agreed.

But with what happened to Wu Shengnan in mind, Xiao Yi's warning still echoed in her ears. Towards these two so-called "friends", she could no longer be completely open and trusting.

Zhu Xiaomeng was getting impatient. She reached out and nudged Lin Meng's arm. "Come on, hurry up! I'm dying of anticipation. Oh, you know how it is - the emperor isn't worried, but his eunuch is. Just tell me already, my sister!"

Lin Meng quietly clenched her fist, her heart churning. Her eyelashes drooped, concealing the colors in her eyes. She was considering whether to speak or remain silent. If she spoke up, she might not have to face betrayal from behind. At least she would have two close friends standing by her side, supporting her and sharing the pressure. But what if… what if Xiaomeng and the other friend couldn't keep their mouths shut and accidentally leaked it…

She hesitated, Zhu Xiaomeng pulled a face and urged her impatiently.

"Mumu, don't you consider us sisters anymore!"

To be pressured by friendship can be a heavy burden. Lin Meng frowned slightly, just then, someone called her!

“Lin Meng——”

A girl called out loudly, walking towards Lin Meng. Lin Meng took a closer look and it was Sun Papan who she had a bit of a good feeling for.

Sun Papan stood about seven or eight meters away from the three of them. The three of them were so engrossed in their conversation that they didn't notice when she got so close!

Zhu Xiaomeng and Yang Haoqing simultaneously pulled down their faces, looking unhappily at Sun Papan who was walking closer and closer. "What are you doing here!"

Sun Panpan walked in with a bag of potato chips in her hand, crunching away and mumbling, "Hmm, I need to find Lin Meng."

"What's going on Just say it!" Zhu Xiaomeng narrowed her eyes, full of hostility. Inside, she panicked a little, afraid that Sun Papan would come over and cause trouble!

Before, there weren't a lack of girls approaching Lin Meng, but each time they were stopped by Zhu Xiaomeng and Yang Haoqing. Those who found it uninteresting just left quietly, never coming near Lin Meng again. The persistent ones, after being repeatedly blocked by Zhu Xiaomeng and Yang Haoqing, also left disappointedly. Zhu Xiaomeng and the others explained to Lin Meng that they wanted to keep their trio of girls exclusive, making the other girls feel like they wouldn't get along well with them. Because Zhu and Yang had been classmates with Lin Meng since elementary school, their bond was special, so Lin Meng always believed them. Besides, Lin Meng had a quiet personality and didn't want many friends in the first place. So, whenever someone new tried to join, Zhu and Yang would mostly shoo them away. Lin Meng never thought too deeply about it.

This time, too, Sun Papan came knocking. Zhu Yang and the other two hadn't even considered leaving, instead once again naturally stopping her. Zhu Xiaomeng absolutely wouldn't allow Sun Papan to spout nonsense in front of Lin Meng. Although she wasn't familiar with Sun Papan and didn't know what she was doing coming to see Lin Meng, her caution would once again nip danger in the bud.

Zhu Xiaomeng looked at Sun Papan from afar, with a look of disdain on her face. She had never liked this girl anyway!

Sun Panpan stared with her big, round black eyes at Zhu Yang and the others. She crunched on the potato chips in her mouth, munching for a full minute. Just as Zhu Xiaomeng was about to get impatient, she swallowed the chips and slowly said: "Oh, that's it. I want to tell Lin Meng about what happened with that dress that day."

After she finished speaking, she stretched out her chubby little hand and grabbed another handful of potato chips from her bag. She stuffed them all into her mouth, puffed up her cheeks, and crunched away again. One bite lasted a full minute before she stopped. This made Zhu Xiaomeng anxious. She thought to herself: "This is like a pig! If you eat so much, just be a pig!"

She was eager to get the inside scoop from Lin Meng, and she was about to succeed when this little pig came over and caused a ruckus!

She scolded the chubby girl in her mind, but she couldn't really say it out loud. After all, she was the deputy squad leader, a respected figure everyone looked up to. If she actually started scolding her, it would damage her image and significantly lower her standing in everyone's eyes! But, she could still show that she wasn't welcoming.

"Sun Papan, speak quickly. Don't waste our time. Me and Mengmeng still have things to say!"

"Um... um..." Sun Papan nodded, indicating that she understood. But her speed of eating didn't increase at all. She chewed and chewed, and after another half minute, Sun Papan licked her full little mouth before saying: "Lin Meng classmate, about the clothes I gave you that day, do you want to return them to me!"

After finishing his words, he grabbed a bag of chips and started munching away. His small face, lost in the feast, had two black eyes like precious gems, intensely focused only on Lin Meng, as if oblivious to Zhu Xiaomeng's furious expression beside him.

Lin Meng was stunned for a moment, her face immediately flushed red. She said embarrassedly and quickly, "I'm sorry, I... I forgot about this." There were too many things, too chaotic, and too urgent. She had almost forgotten about it!

After some thought, she said apologetically to Sun Papan, "Sun Papan, how about this I've already worn the clothes, so I won't return them. I'll give you back the money for the clothes, okay"

Sun Papan tilted her head, seeming to be deep in thought. It seemed her nerves were unusually thick, and she considered things slower than others. After a full half minute, she slowly nodded. Zhu Xiaomeng's face was almost turning blue, still listening as Lin Meng asked Sun Papan how much money she wanted.

Sun Panpan, while Lin Meng was speaking, had already grabbed a bag of potato chips and crunched them, the sound of each crisp bite making Zhu Xiaomeng almost collapse. She frowned and said impatiently, "Sun Panpan, just say how much money you want, give me an approximate amount, I'll give it to you right away! Anything extra is considered thanks!" This fat pig bad luck charm, please, get out of here already!

On the contrary, Sun Papan was taking her time. She slowly nibbled on the chips and swallowed them. Then she said, “Hmm, this won't do. You have to pay the exact amount. Let me think... how much is it exactly”

As soon as he thought this, he sat still like an old monk, saying nothing. After a while, the familiar crunching sound of potato chips rang out again.

Zhu Xiaomeng's mind, a certain nerve had snapped. She really wanted to curse, but because it was a classmate, she could only bear it again and again. And so, bearing it, the bell for early self-study rang. At this moment, Sun Panpan lightly said.

"Oh, it's time for morning study. Let's head back to class first. Lin Meng, about that money, I'll find you when I remember.

After finishing, the chubby little hand holding the almost empty bag of chips walked slowly towards the classroom. That chubby figure looked strangely funny - it was the kind that made people laugh from the heart. Lin Meng turned back to Zhu Xiaomeng and said, "Let's go!"

He quickly walked up and followed Sun Papan.

Zhu Xiaomeng stamped her foot resentfully and thought to herself that she would have to wait until the first class was over before she could interrogate Lin Meng again. Looking at the chubby Sun Pappar, she cursed her inwardly.

Before even reaching the classroom, the Chinese language representative came back carrying a huge stack of homework. Upon seeing Lin Meng, she said, "Mengmeng, Teacher Ni wants you to go to her office!"

Lin Meng let out an "Ai" and changed her direction, walking towards Teacher Ni's office. She felt even more uneasy. As the class teacher, if Teacher Ni called a student alone, it was mostly to give them a lecture. Since what happened to her had spread around school, then the shrewd class teacher must also know about it, right! Her unease stemmed from the fear that Teacher Ni would call her specifically because of this. How could she explain things to Teacher Ni then! Even if she lied, in such a short amount of time, she couldn't come up with a plausible excuse!

She frowned, finding it so annoying!

Beside me, a familiar girl mumbled: "Oh, Ms. Ni is here! That's great, I'm going to find Ms. Ni too."

Saying that, Sun Papan also changed her direction and walked towards the head teacher's office.

Over there, Zhu Xiaomeng and Yang Haoqing didn't take it to heart. With the guess that Lin Meng's departure might be fraught with danger, they went into the classroom by themselves.

Lin Meng unconsciously slowed her pace, thinking about what to do. Unexpectedly, Sun Papan who was walking ahead of her, walked even slower than her. Before long, the two of them ended up walking side by side.

"Lin Meng!" Sun Panpan suddenly whispered Lin Meng's name.

Lin Meng was startled and tilted her head in surprise to look at her.

Sun Panpan giggled, her dark almond eyes twinkling as she looked at her. "You can't tell anyone!"

"Huh" she said, confused.

Sun Panpan shook her head, her red lips puckering slightly. "You can't be so honest, oh! When a friend asks something, just say whatever they want to hear, or you'll get taken advantage of!"

Lin Meng was stunned and took a step back.

Sun Panpan also stopped and winked at her. "That man can be considered your cousin, oh. Cousin, but it's a very vague term, oh. It can be a close relative within three generations, or someone who is miles apart, out of reach, hehe, you listen to me, it's definitely right!"

Lin Meng was not stupid, she immediately understood Sun Papan's hint.

She stared straight at the chubby girl in front of her. Her face was rosy and plump, looking both naive and cute, but mostly reminiscent of the word "innocent". However, when the girl looked at her with her jet-black eyes and smirked, there was a hint of cunning in her expression!

A girl who stands out!

Lin Mengxin thought to herself, and gratefully smiled brightly at Sun Panpan. "Thank you!"

Bright eyes and white teeth, coupled with a captivating smile, left Sun Papan staring in wonder.

"You're so smart, you know so much!" Lin Meng added, inexplicably wanting to talk to her more.

Sun Panpan waved her hand bashfully, "Oh no, it's nothing... I was just reading a novel!"

"Reading novels!" Lin Meng narrowed his eyes and smiled. "That's pretty impressive too. I didn't expect that from you just now."

"Don't you think reading novels is bad" Sun Papan blinked and stared straight at Lin Meng. "A lot of people look down on this kind of thing!"

At school, from the head teacher to each subject teacher, they all categorize these novels, especially romantic ones that girls love to read, and martial arts ones that boys like, as "detrimental to students" and "distracting from studies." Some students even secretly ridicule girls who read romance novels in the shadows. Perhaps it's because high school students are at a relatively sensitive age, with a hazy understanding of love, they want to love but dare not love. Due to pressure from parents, teachers, and classmates around them, it seems that even "liking" someone has become a taboo that cannot be spoken aloud, let alone reading some seemingly yellow-colored romance novels!

Lin Meng laughed, speaking from the heart: "How is that possible! Isn't reading novels a way to cultivate one's character and relieve stress You enjoy it and it doesn't harm anyone, so where's the talk of right and wrong!"

"Really!" Sun Papan looked up with unexpected surprise!

Lin Mengda nodded with a smile, revealing her teeth and crinkling the corners of her eyes!

Sun Panpan touched her own nape and laughed, two very cute dimples appearing on her face. Her cheeks flushed red, and she suddenly blurted out, "Lin Meng, you... you're really pretty!"

After finishing his words, he dashed away like a shy little girl!

Lin Meng blushed, embarrassed but happy. It was the first time she had been so directly complimented by a girl her own age! Suddenly, she remembered that Sun Papan was also going to see Teacher Ni. She immediately called out to her.

"Sun Panpan, aren't you going to see the teacher!"

"I'm not going!" Sun Papan smiled and turned back, sticking her tongue out at her. "There's nothing to do there anyway, who would want to see Old Mr. Ni"

Old Ni's Head, a nickname given to the homeroom teacher by students.

Lin Meng was stunned for a moment before realizing that the person Sun Papan had deliberately sought out was actually her!

My heart skipped a beat, filled with gratitude and an inexplicable joy. This plump and adorable girl was here specially to guide her!

Lin Meng smiled silently, but when she saw the head teacher's office not far ahead, her smile stopped.

She hesitated for a moment, then thought about it, forming a plan in her mind. She pursed her lips and walked over. As she reached the door, she saw that it was wide open, a gaping void like a hungry mouth. The head teacher's office - most students hated it most feared it, the place that could leave the deepest scars on their hearts!

Lin Meng took a deep breath, clenched one hand tightly, and raised the other to knock on the side door. "Tut tut" twice after the sound, he shouted --

"Report!"ond measure. Her face, though she tried to control it, still wore a menacing and ferocious look. She immediately roared in anger."Rong Qi'heng, stop it!"Upon regaining composure, he returned to a sta...
