Perhaps because she had experienced some things, although she looked slightly fierce, her words were much gentler than before.

She knew very well that Fu Chen wanted to mess with Jiang Fengya at the birthday banquet. After all, Song Fengwan had a special relationship with her, and she might be involved again.

Song Fengwan smiled slightly. “Thank you for the reminder.”

The three of them chatted for a while more before Sun Qionghua drove her back to her dormitory building. The two of them stood in front of the building and chatted for a while. “… I’m living in the capital now. If you encounter any difficulties here or need any help, look for me anytime. My number hasn’t changed.”

“Thank you.” Song Fengwan thanked her.

When she turned around to go upstairs, she bumped into Jiang Fengya, who had just come out of the dormitory building. She was wearing an exquisite lace dress that was a radiant red. She looked at Song Fengwan with an inexplicable sense of arrogance.

Sun Qionghua was about to get into the car when Jiang Fengya stopped her.

“Auntie.” Jiang Fengya had heard that Sun Qionghua was at the entrance and hurried downstairs to take a look.

Sun Qionghua glanced at her. “What’s the matter?”

She was indifferent, as if she was talking to a stranger.

When she spoke to Song Fengwan just now, it was clearly not like this.

This made Jiang Fengya feel slightly awkward. At this moment, her stomach was already showing a little. But she was wearing loose clothes, so it didn’t look very obvious. She bit her lip. “I went for a pregnancy checkup a few days ago. They said that the child is quite healthy.”

“Really?” Sun Qionghua’s eyes didn’t even show a tiny bit of joy.

“They said it should be a boy. Last time, I told Yuxiu that a boy should look a lot like him.” Jiang Fengya didn’t expect Sun Qionghua to treat her so coldly even though Fu Chen had invited her to his birthday banquet.

“Whether he looks like him or not, we’ll talk about it after he’s born. It’s hard to say if he’s the flesh and blood of the Fu family now.”

When Jiang Fengya heard this, her face paled, and she looked aggrieved. “Auntie, what do you mean? Are you suspecting me?”

“Aren’t you worthy of suspicion?” Sun Qionghua sneered.

“By saying that, do you mean that you’re going to test him in the future? How is he going to face anyone after he’s born?” Jiang Fengya’s heart was pounding wildly.

Sun Qionghua rubbed the car key in her hand. “Isn’t it your fault that he’ll be criticized? Don’t act so innocent.”

With that, she got into the car, completely ignoring Jiang Fengya’s aggrieved and pitiful appearance.

Jiang Fengya stood in front of the dormitory building. Many students who came and went saw that they weren’t chatting happily, and they looked at her with increasingly strange expressions.

“Looks like it’s not so easy to enter a wealthy family. This mother-in-law isn’t easy to deal with.”

“I think even if she gives birth to a child, she won’t have any status in her husband’s family.”

“It’s a child that came about by a scheme. He could have found a daughter of a wealthy family of equal social status, but she ruined it for him. Who would give her a good attitude? She dresses up and appears noble all day in school, but when she goes to his family, she’ll still have to work like a slave and won’t be treated as a human.”

…

The students in the school were already quite critical of her for using her stomach to get to where she was. Just this matter in front of the dormitory building was immediately made up into countless versions, and it even started to spread online.

Everyone was already paying a lot of attention to Jiang Fengya. Now that there were rumors that she didn’t get along with her husband’s family, rumors spread everywhere.

***

Song Fengwan had been making desserts with Xu Yuanfei recently, hoping to make a small cake for Fu Chen before his birthday. In the end, Qiao Xiyan became her guinea pig.

This made him feel very resentful.

“I’ll make one for you on your birthday too.” Song Fengwan smiled.

Qiao Xiyan tilted his head to look at her. “Do you know when my birthday is?”

Then a certain someone stammered, her face red. “Around winter.”

Qiao Xiyan snorted. “Do you know what month?”

“November? December…”

“You might as well list all twelve months. You’ll definitely get it right.”

Song Fengwan lowered her head and didn’t say anything.

“Alright, stop pretending to be pitiful.”

Less than a day before Fu Chen’s birthday, the news of Jiang Fengya being disliked by her husband’s family was still trending on Weibo. But the next day, a piece of even more explosive news quickly refreshed all the headlines.

[Old Master Qiao’s granddaughter has a messy private life and likes to play around.]

[Tear apart the pure and fake face of the Yan family’s stepdaughter and expose her unknown secrets.]

[Dating several men at the same time, specialized in hooking up with other people’s husbands. Contemporary Pan Jinlian!]

…

In order to attract attention, the Qiao family and the Yan family were all brought out to be stepped on. The news flooded the internet at five in the morning. When everyone woke up, it had already exploded in all the major news media outlets.

Fu Chen was copying Buddhist scriptures at home at the time. There were two goldfish in a transparent fish tank beside him, and smoke was rising from the brass incense burner. When Shi Fang pushed the door open and entered, the smell of ink hit his face.

“Third Master…”

“Something happened?”

“Jiang Fengya dragged Miss Song into the water in order to dispel the rumors about her. Her methods are really dirty. Instead of clarifying it herself, she dragged someone else out to be her shield? Can she be any more shameless?” Shi Fang was furious.

“F*ck, the matter dragged on for a few days. I thought they would have a good solution, but it was actually this.

“Now, the entire internet is mocking Miss Song. They can’t wait to drag her out to tour the streets and drown her in a pig cage…”

“What did you say?” Fu Chen lifted his eyelids and looked at him.

“Sorry, I couldn’t control my mouth!” Shi Fang slapped his mouth. “Third Master, what should we do now?

“A lot of people are involved. Jiang Ershao, Young Master Yuxiu, and even Young Master Duan, Eldest Young Master, and Young Master Qiao are among them.

“Are these people brainless? Do they think that Miss Song can have an affair with her cousin? How f*cking funny.

“It seems that people found out that Jiang Ershao looked for Miss Song and that Second Madam contacted her privately a few days ago. Now, everyone feels that Jiang Fengya isn’t liked by the Fu family because of Miss Song’s doing. What they’re saying is too vulgar.”

…

Shi Fang’s mouth seemed to be equipped with a machine gun as he spoke quickly and incessantly.

But after he rambled on for a long time, Fu Chen still didn’t respond. “Third Master? Are you listening?”

“Linbai is here. Why didn’t anyone take a photo of me and Wanwan together?”

“There should be, but…” Shi Fang coughed twice. “People might think that you’re her uncle, so they didn’t list you as a topic of gossip.”

“Uncle?” Fu Chen chuckled. “These news people don’t know how to make headlines at all. If there was an uncle…

“Wouldn’t it be more exciting?”

Shi Fang was just short of fainting. Is this the time to discuss whether it’s exciting or not?

“Are we just going to leave it alone?”

“I’ll look for Linbai. He’s also a subject of the scandal.”

Duan Linbai, who liked to sleep in, was furious when he received the call and almost scolded Fu Chen to death. But when he heard the news, he jumped out of bed, swearing.

After he finished getting washed up and dressed, it was already past eight in the morning. Although the news didn’t continue spreading, it still caused a considerable impact. The keywords were blocked, but everyone used initials instead. In short, this kind of news was like weeds…

It couldn’t be burned out, and it grew again.

After Duan Linbai was done, he lay on his bed, panting. F*ck, that’s not right. She’s Third Fu’s f*cking wife. Why did I work so hard this morning?

***

The news was blocked in the morning, but new news popped up in the afternoon. On the day of Sun Rui’s accident, it was revealed that Song Fengwan was at the scene of the incident. So some people linked her to Sun Rui, and some even suspected that she had dabbled in drugs.

Beijing University’s forums were flooded with all kinds of internet trolls and water armies, all of which demanded that the school investigate her thoroughly. This led to the school’s official Weibo and forum closing…

Fu Chen stared at all kinds of news. Jiang Fengya had the Sun family behind her, and she had the money to hire water armies. It seemed like she was planning to drag Song Fengwan out to shield her.

She was doing it so high-profile. She was indeed shameless.

When he called Song Fengwan, he reminded her not to leave the dormitory for the time being. He would personally pick her up on the day of his birthday banquet.

“I know. I’ll wait for you.”

Little did they know that even in the dormitory, Song Fengwan almost encountered an accident.
