Chapter 128: So He Really Was Doing It

Shen Qingxuan placed both hands on Jiang Yubing’s shoulders and looked at her with a bright smile as he said, “Wife, don’t worry, I’m perfectly fine, aren’t I?”

“It’s amazing you can still laugh; you nearly scared me to death just now!”

Jiang Yubing rolled her eyes in exasperation.

When she received the idiot husband’s call, she applied makeup with her mouth hanging open.

He only asked her to come over and then hung up the phone immediately.

Although she did not know what exactly happened, she spent so much time with Shen Qingxuan.

Sensitive to the change in his tone, she immediately sensed that something was wrong from that short and hurried sentence.

Therefore, the moment the call ended, she hurried toward the place where Shen Qingxuan stayed.

As soon as she arrived nearby, she saw someone clutching Shen Qingxuan’s clothes.

She usually could not bear to bully the idiot husband, so the sight instantly filled her with anger.

At the same time, Song Shi gradually recovered his rationality.

Remembering the scene from moments ago, he felt furious when he learned the truth and lost his composure.

Before that, he considered the cross-dressing Shen Qingxuan a pure and beautiful goddess.

The intimate behavior between Jiang Yubing and the goddess made Song Shi feel that they were sullying the sacred and inviolable image of the goddess in his heart.

Out of such anger and twisted emotions, he posted malicious rumors about Jiang Yubing on the school forum.

When he discovered that the goddess he longed for was actually a man, the huge gap was hard for him to accept, which led to his impulsive actions a moment ago.

At that moment, the phone in his pocket suddenly rang.

Song Shi glanced at it; the call came from the supervisor, and he cursed inwardly.

As soon as he connected, the supervisor’s anxious and slightly reproachful voice came through, “Where did you go?”

“There are so many people in the gymnasium who need help; everyone is rushed off their feet, yet you are nowhere to be seen?”

Listening to the call, Song Shi’s face alternated between red and white, and he kept saying sorry.

After the call ended, he let out a long sigh.

He originally thought he finally met true love and even did so many ridiculous things for it.

In the end, it turned out to be a laughable misunderstanding.

Not only did he fail to win the goddess’s heart, he also faced a string of troubles.

At that moment, Song Shi felt truly ridiculous; this was probably the definition of losing the wife and the army.

Just as he wanted to turn around and leave, the sharp-eyed Shen Qingxuan hurried forward and blocked him with an outstretched hand.

Shen Qingxuan spoke with a serious expression, “Delete those posts and apologize to my wife in public.”

“Otherwise, you are not leaving today.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Ran and Bai Youwei hurried over from the side and flanked Song Shi on both sides.

They obviously were not joking.

Song Shi knew that if he failed to handle this matter properly and the school found out, he might receive severe punishment.

If he followed Shen Qingxuan’s instructions now, he might still keep the volunteer credits.

After weighing the pros and cons, Song Shi, though extremely unwilling, still chose to compromise.

He lowered his head slightly, a hint of frustration and shame in his voice, and said to Jiang Yubing, “I’m sorry, Senior Jiang.”

She neither replied nor nodded to accept the apology; the look she gave him remained cool and distant.

Seeing her expression, Song Shi looked uncertainly at Shen Qingxuan.

After Shen Qingxuan nodded, he finally picked up his phone and deleted all the malicious posts in front of them.

After deleting the posts, he gritted his teeth and wrote an apology statement on the spot.

Jiang Yubing took the phone, glanced at the statement, and confirmed that it had no problems.

She then said, “I hope you learn from this lesson and stop doing such harmful and pointless things.”

Song Shi said nothing and merely nodded.

He then turned around and left with heavy steps.

After Song Shi walked away, Bai Youwei spoke as if claiming credit, “Little brother, I paid a huge price to trade for that clue; how will you thank me?”

Zhao Ran, standing beside her, twitched the corner of his mouth when he heard that.

Wasn’t it just giving Chen Hao a contact info? How could she call that paying a huge price?

Shen Qingxuan immediately said, “Thank you, Senior. After the school sports meet ends, I’ll treat you to a meal.”

He estimated that by then he should receive his salary.

Although he never asked how much the vice manager position paid monthly, it should be several thousand at least.

His Bingbing once told him that he could allocate that money freely.

“Oh yeah! Juniors really are the best!”

Bai Youwei jumped up happily at once.

After her excitement subsided, she cast Zhao Ran a contemptuous glance and said, “See that? Dare you say again that I can’t get things done?”

Zhao Ran responded, “I see it. You’re amazing!”

“Of course, do you even know who I am?”

Watching Bai Youwei stand with her hands on her hips, looking so smug, Zhao Ran found it amusing.

Yet this time he did not mock her as usual; instead, he turned to Shen Qingxuan and said, “What about me?”

Shen Qingxuan curled his lip disdainfully, “You? Go cool off somewhere else.”

After speaking, he could not help but laugh first.

Zhao Ran followed and burst into laughter as well.

They all understood that saying thank you between good brothers-in-law sounded too distant.

After teasing Shen Qingxuan for a few more sentences, Zhao Ran dragged the credit-seeking Bai Youwei away from Jiang Yubing.

Jiang Yubing hugged Shen Qingxuan from behind, rested her head on his shoulder, and said happily, “Thank you, husband.”

“Uh… actually I only just guessed that Song Shi is the one smearing you, then Zhao Ran and Senior came over.”

Shen Qingxuan scratched his head a little embarrassedly.

“Husband, can you tell me why you insist on taking part in this opening ceremony performance?”

Jiang Yubing asked softly.

In fact, she already guessed most of the reason.

She still asked because she wanted to hear Shen Qingxuan admit it himself.

Shen Qingxuan organized his thoughts and then said slowly, “You know, the school forum buzzed about your orientation for a while.”

“I once posted to clarify on the school forum, but it sank without any attention.”

“So I think that if I perform at the opening ceremony, I can take advantage of the audience’s attention and reveal my identity on the spot.”

“That way, those rumors collapse on their own.”

After listening to the idiot husband’s explanation, Jiang Yubing finally understood completely.

No wonder he suddenly said he wanted to perform at the opening ceremony; it turned out he did it for her.

She could not help recalling the scene where Shen Qingxuan patted his chest and promised her before.

It turned out that he did not speak casually back then; he really put his words into action.

Zhao Ran said, “So I am also part of your play?”
