Heads-up! The CEO’s Wife is a Hidden Big Boss!

1096: It Was Your Fortune That I Was Interested in You (Lu Guixin Part 20) 1096: It Was Your Fortune That I Was Interested in You (Lu Guixin Part 20) Editor: Atlas Studios The news spread around the school quickly.

Both girls and boys were gathered in groups in the corridors discussing this matter with phones in their hands.

All eyes turned to Lu Guixin the moment she stepped out of the classroom.

There were looks of all sorts, from disgust, nonchalance, and sneering to schadenfreude.

Lu Guixin hadn’t walked far when her phone rang inside her pocket.

It was a call from the capital.

She answered the phone and spoke in an aggressive tone, which was unlike her usual gentle voice.

“Just watch.

I’ll settle it on my own, Dad.” Lu Chengzhou lazily reminded her, “Do a good job.

Don’t embarrass your mother.” As soon as Lu Guixin ended the call, she received another call.

This time, it was from Tan Ying.

Tan Ying sounded relaxed as he said, “I’ve already clarified on Weibo that it was my great-grandfather’s birthday that day.

I’ve also contacted a few media outlets, so this matter will soon die down.” “Die down?” Lu Guixin laughed, her voice light, slow, and sinister.

“Do I look like a magnanimous person?” Tan Ying froze and instinctively looked at his phone to check the name of the person he was speaking to.

For a moment, he thought he’d called the wrong number.

When he confirmed that he was indeed speaking to the right person, he asked hesitantly, “Lu Guixin?

My little princess?” Hostility shone in her eyes.

“I have to know who’s picking on the new student who’s been barely here for a few months and hasn’t offended anyone.” As the Tan family’s heir who grew up with high expectations of him, Tan Ying naturally wasn’t a simple character.

Despite his young age and frivolous appearance, he was a deep and introverted person.

After getting over his initial shock at the change in Lu Guixin’s attitude, he chuckled to himself and said, “Alright, I won’t get involved, then.” I should have known.

Even though her IQ might not be as high as her parents’, she still grew up under her parents’ influence.

There’s no way she’s that simple.

Tan Ying remembered how her parents were notorious for being ruthless and how her uncles and brothers were always coddling her lest she suffered from any injustice.

If the idiot behind the exposé finds out who they’ve offended, I bet they wouldn’t even dare cry.

After ending the call, Lu Guixin strode off to the toilet while assembling her other phone.

The toilet was empty as everyone was currently outside discussing the post on Weibo.

Lu Guixin stood in front of the sink and speedily assembled the small, complex metal instruments in front of her.

Her fingers flew across the red projection keyboard that was on the black porcelain countertop without even looking down at it.

A beam of light projected from the left side of her gold-rimmed glasses and onto the white wall, showing the surveillance footage of the entire Ming City.

She searched for all the footage from the time she left Ming City High School and got into the Tan family’s car on the day of Elder Tan’s birthday.

People and cars flashed across her eyes as the video played at maximum speed.

The Xia family’s car, which was sent to fetch Xia Cheng, followed the Tan family’s car all the way from the school gate.

Upon reaching Hotel W, the Xia family’s car didn’t enter the hotel’s parking lot.

It stopped outside for a few minutes before driving off.

Lu Guixin took out her phone.

The time shown on the huge electronic screen in front of Hotel W matched the time the Xia family’s car stopped outside the hotel entrance.

… Meanwhile… The Year Three cohort.

All the students were discussing the news of Lu Guixin and Tan Ying going to a hotel.

Most of the Year Threes had seen Lu Guixin’s face on the school field previously, so they were certain that the person in the photo was her.

With photos serving as proof, a few girls in Class One’s classroom haughtily said, “What else do you guys have to say?

Who said that Su Zeyue spread false rumors and that Lu Guixin wasn’t promiscuous?” “She spent five whole hours inside the hotel with Tan Ying.

That’s the true colors of your so-called innocent campus belle.” “You people drove Su Zeyue away!” “Zhou Fu.” One of the girls looked at Zhou Fu, who was sitting in the last row.

“Are you going to continue to stand up for Lu Guixin?

Su Zeyue was forced to withdraw from school for just stating the facts.” “I found it strange when the school made the decision to have Su Zeyue withdrawn.

It turns out that Lu Guixin has Tan Ying behind her.” “How disgusting.

On the one hand, she went to a hotel with Tan Ying while she deliberately approached Zhou Fu.” The girls who got picked on by the guys for speaking up for Su Zeyue felt a sense of triumph at this moment.

While holding his phone, Tian Rong glanced toward the seat near the door in the last row.

Zhou Fu was sitting with his legs wide open and his back against the side wall while looking down at his phone.

He was expressionless as he looked at the photo showing Lu Guixin and Tan Ying coming out of the hotel after 11 pm.

In his other hand was the slip of paper Lu Guixin had folded for him the night before, and he was spinning it between his fingers.

The malicious comments and criticisms from netizens and their classmates made Xia Cheng smirk.

Someone had posted the entire Tan family’s family tree on Weibo, and the public opinion grew louder and louder—people asked the relevant authorities to conduct an investigation on them.

Tan Ying is part of the scandal, so the Tan family is in trouble themselves.

And, without their protection, the school will surely punish Lu Guixin for causing such huge damage to their reputation.

It’s such a shame that I didn’t manage to find out anything about Lu Guixin’s family even after spending so much money.

Not even the netizens could, either.

Xia Cheng put her phone away and turned her head to look at Zhou Fu.

He was poker-faced and aloof as usual, and he seemed unaffected by the matter.

Xia Cheng pursed her lips.
