Chapter 18 : Domineering President Fu

The next day, when Mu Qianqian went to class again, the rumors became more and more outrageous.

“Hurry up and check the internal school forum. Mu Qianqian was photographed getting into a luxury car yesterday. She must have left with an old, ugly man.”

“Oh my god, she openly hooks up with rich men in school and uses backdoors. Is there any justice in this world?”

“This is a place for studying, not a place for some unclean women to hook up with men! I have reason to suspect that Mu Qianqian was admitted to our school by improper means. I implore the school to conduct a thorough investigation and expel Mu Qianqian!”

“Expel Mu Qianqian! Return the university to a clean and clear place!”

Mu Qianqian had never logged into the school forum, but when she went to class, she found that many people from other majors came over to watch and whispered to her.

“She is Mu Qianqian. She is indeed pretty.”

“If she’s ugly, will the boss be interested in her?”

“Tsk tsk, what a pity! I wonder if she will feel sick and want to vomit when she sleeps with a stinky old man.”

Some people maintained a rational perspective and raised doubts, “What if that’s her family’s car? It’s best not to spread rumors without evidence.”

“Pff, you don’t know, do you? She was a poverty student when she first enrolled, and now she’s riding in a luxury car. Who would believe it’s not because she’s involved with a rich man?”

These voices of doubt made Mu Qianqian feel cold and her heart sink.

Who is continuously fabricating these rumors to harm her?

Why are they doing this?

Fang Yanran argued passionately, “The truth hasn’t been established yet. Don’t just listen to rumors and get used as a pawn!”

“I suggest you stay away from her. This woman isn’t as simple as you think.”

ang Yanran argued, “The truth of the matter has not yet been found out, don’t believe everything you hear, or you will be used as a tool without knowing it!”

“And what makes you think we’re spreading false rumors? Are you listening under the bed while Mu Qianqian is with the old man?” Sha Pu, with a lewd expression, continued to stir trouble from the crowd.

“You! You have no shame!” Fang Yanran was so enraged she started crying.

Mu Qianqian’s eyes were red, and she couldn’t help but weakly say, “I—I’m not involved with any rich men. These are all rumors. Please believe me. I voluntarily withdrew my poverty application long ago. I don’t know who leaked my personal information, so please stop spreading my private matters.”

Her voice was soft and gentle, her logic clear, evoking sympathy from many.

However, more people enjoyed the drama and, with a few voices inciting trouble in the crowd, the impact of the incident grew larger and larger.

Several posts about Mu Qianqian remained at the top of the forum. Someone even revealed her classroom for today, and everyone flocked to watch.

“Mu Qianqian, university is a place for learning, which should be sacred and clean, but your dirty deeds have turned it into a cesspool!”

“If you still have any sense of shame, you should voluntarily withdraw from school to avoid affecting everyone.”

“Mu Qianqian, how much can you earn in a night? Did you easily make enough for your tuition? I really envy you, hahahaha.”

By the end, the number of onlookers kept increasing, filling up the entire classroom.

The teacher was unable to continue the class and had to report the situation to the school authorities. Upon hearing about the incident, the school leaders immediately contacted Assistant Wang.

While Fu Sichan was listening to a report from the company executives about earnings, Assistant Wang knocked and entered, leaning close to his ear to say, “President Fu, Miss Mu is being bullied.”

Fu Sichan’s brow immediately furrowed. “What’s going on?”

Assistant Wang lowered his voice and explained the situation. The temperature around Fu Sichan seemed to drop, and the executives present were frightened and shivering, not daring to make a move.

“The meeting will be postponed.”

Fu Sichan stood up and left the meeting room, with Assistant Wang hurriedly following with his suit jacket.

After he left, the meeting room buzzed with speculation.

“Why did President Fu leave suddenly? Did something happen?”

“I don’t know. President Fu has always prioritized the company. Lately, he’s been leaving meetings midway. Maybe it’s something at home.”

“Anyway, we can rule out women as the cause. President Fu has always been indifferent to women and wouldn’t let them affect his work.”

“That’s obvious. If President Fu had a woman by his side, it would be even more explosive than a celebrity’s secret marriage!”

Top floor, the CEO’s office.

The assistant logged into the finance university’s forum on the computer and opened a few posts on the homepage. “President Fu, take a look.”

The posts included several photos, some of Mu Qianqian’s family background and scholarship application images. There were also photos of her getting into a luxury car, but the pictures were taken in dim light, making it hard to discern the car’s model and license plate. All that was visible was a long, strong hand helping Mu Qianqian into the expensive vehicle.

There were many replies, with numerous people making dark and speculative comments without knowing the full story.

Foolish people love to follow the crowd. As soon as there’s excitement, they rush in like mad dogs scenting bones, regardless of the consequences. Taking advantage of the forum’s anonymity, they stoked a frenzy of sensationalism.

“President Fu, many people have already found out which classroom Miss Mu is in,” the assistant continued, scrolling through several pages filled with student photos of Mu Qianqian.

There were also various “insiders” coming forward to continually smear her reputation.

Fu Sichan closed his eyes, and the image of Mu Qianqian being surrounded and bullied by a crowd came to mind.

A tightness gripped his heart, as if someone had pinched the tip of his heart.

When he opened his eyes again, a dark fury flickered in his gaze.

Fu Sichan tapped the table twice with his long fingers and said calmly, “Unmask everyone involved in the posts, identify the mastermind, and kick them out of Finance University.”

“Yes, sir!”

“And those administrative staff who leaked student privacy should also be punished.”

“Understood, I’ll handle it immediately.”

Assistant Wang personally went to Finance University. Ten minutes later, the posts were all revealed, showing the class and names of the people who made the comments.

Everyone saw that the poster was Mu Qianqian’s classmate, Sha Pue!

“What’s going on with the forum? Why did it suddenly become a real-name system?”

“Damn, the posts are locked, and we can’t delete them or remove our accounts. It’s over now.”

They had spoken many malicious words, believing their identities were hidden. But with Fu Sichan’s move to unmask them, the rumors were immediately quelled.

The dark, sneaky rats hiding in the corners were no longer bold once exposed.

Mu Qianqian was comforting the crying Fang Yanran when she suddenly heard that the forum had canceled its anonymity, and those who had slandered her were scrambling to delete their comments.

Someone shouted, “The security team is here, there are a lot of them.”

“All students involved in slandering Mu Qianqian, come with me to the student office for registration. Don’t think about escaping, there are cameras everywhere on campus. Anyone caught trying to flee will be given a major demerit and it will be added to your permanent record, affecting you for life!”

The crowd’s faces turned from green to pale, their legs weakening with regret. “Teacher, we were just here to join the excitement, we didn’t mean to slander anyone…”

“Take them all away!”
