Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The principal looked at Wang Xiaohui with a frown and asked, “Who are you? Are you a parent of a student here?”

“She’s not a parent of a student here. Her child has just been sent to jail for intentionally spreading rumors with malicious intentions!”

As soon as these words were said, realization finally dawned on the students in the surroundings, who were watching the show. Everyone knew about Xu Youyou’s matters on the university forum. The post on the forum claimed that Xu Youyou was bullied and even had her pictures taken without consent. Apart from that, the post also hinted at her abnormal relationship with Kang Mingcheng, a teacher at the university. Everyone was aware that Xu Youyou had won the lawsuit and that justice had been served.

Initially, everyone had been wondering why the other party would do such a thing. However, today, after meeting Wang Xiaohui, they thought that it was not surprising that the other party would do such a thing with a mother like Wang Xiaohui. With such a mother, how could the child be any better?

The principal’s expression darkened immediately when he realized Xu Youyou was involved in the matter. Others might be unaware of Xu Youyou’s identity, but he knew it better than anyone else. He knew that Xu Youyou was the wife of the Chairman of the Mo Group. Mo Shenbai had also come to the university several times to deal with his wife’s matters. Mo Shenbai even donated air-conditioners to the university just to make sure his wife would be comfortable. His mood naturally took a turn for the worse when he imagined how next year’s donation might be affected once Mo Shenbai found out about today’s matter. Hence, he said seriously to Wang Xiaohui, “Madam, this is an institute for learning, not the streets where you can do as you please. Please leave immediately before I call the security.”

Wang Xiaohui was still in a daze, filled with shock and disbelief. She could not believe that the man whom Xu Youyou married was Mo Shenbai, who was the Chairman of the Mo Group and the head of the Mo family. He was someone that no one in Mo City dared to provoke.

When the principal saw that Wang Xiaohui did not react, he raised his voice and called out, “Security. Where’s the security?”

Wang Xiaohui muttered in disbelief. “Impossible… It can’t be…”

At this moment, Lin Yin arrived. He looked at Xu Youyou, and a hint of shame could be seen in his eyes. He hurriedly said, “I’m sorry. My mother was impulsive. I apologize on her behalf.”

Lin Yin could ignore Lin Zhihuan, but he could not ignore his own mother, after all. He thought that Xu Youyou had already disliked him, to begin with. Now that his mother caused a ruckus, she probably hated him to death.

Xu Youyou’s expression was solemn as she said, “Please bring her away. This is a university. If there’s a next time, I’ll definitely report her to the police.”

“There won’t be a next time,” Lin Yin said. His expression was awkward when he saw the many pairs of eyes in the surroundings. He gritted his teeth before he said, “I’ll apologize to you again in private later.”

After Lin Yin finished speaking, he forcefully dragged the dumbstruck Wang Xiaohui away.

When the principal saw that the shrew had finally left, he heaved a sigh of relief inwardly. Then, he squeezed out a smile and asked, “Miss Mo, Mrs. Mo, are both of you alright?”

The words ‘Mrs. Mo’ immediately confirmed everyone’s speculation.

Mo Zhiyun shifted her eyes away from the young man with the number 7 jersey before she shook her head and asked, “Are you okay, Youyou?”

“I’m fine,” Xu Youyou replied with a nod.

The principal let out a long sigh. “It’s good that you’re both fine. Later, I’ll tell the guards not to let those people in and harass both of you again. Today’s matter…”

The principal trailed off, looking hesitant. He did not know how to say he hoped that Mo Shenbai would not be made aware of this matter.

Xu Youyou understood the principal’s thoughts so she said, “Thank you for protecting us. It’s best if we don’t let word of what happened today spread. Otherwise, it might affect the university’s reputation.”

The principal smiled immediately. He waved his hand and said, “I’m the principal. It’s my duty to protect the students here. If there’s anything, please speak to the security guards.”

Xu Youyou nodded in agreement. “Alright.”

Meanwhile, the students in the surroundings were still whispering among themselves. The fact that Mo Shenbai’s wife was their university mate caused quite a stir.

When the principal saw the students still standing and whispering among themselves, he waved his hand and said, “Alright. Everyone, hurry up and leave. Go about your business and don’t loiter at the entrance. Don’t stand in the way of other students.”

With this, the students quickly dispersed.

When the young man with the number 7 jersey was about to leave, Mo Zhiyun hurriedly stopped him. She said, “Wait. I haven’t thanked you. Thank you.”

The young man smiled slightly. His smile was like the spring breeze as he said, “You’re welcome.”

Mo Zhiyun felt like her heart was about to melt. She bit her lip before she asked, “You helped me previously as well. I didn’t have time to thank you at that time as well. Do you still remember?”

A trace of confusion flashed in the young man’s eyes for a moment. Then, he smiled and nodded. He bent down and picked up Mo Zhiyun’s bag, patting the dust off before handing it to her as he said, “I remember. Did you get scalded that time?”

“No,” Mo Zhiyun said as she reached out for her bag. She was incredibly happy at this moment, and her face turned redder under the setting sun. She said, “I’ve already washed your shirt. I’ll return it to you another time. What’s your name?”

“There’s no need. It’s just a shirt,” the young man said, turning to leave.

Mo Zhiyun’s expression turned slightly gloomy. She was about to speak again when the young man suddenly turned back to look at her.

Then, the young man said, “Lu Heyun. I’m willing to transform into a crane on a pine tree, a pair of crane clouds that fly into the clouds.”

The golden light from the sun shone on the young man’s face, making him look otherworldly.

Mo Zhiyun said excitedly, “I’m Mo Zhiyun, the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, the cloud of the clouds.” Then, she added inwardly, ‘It’s also the same as Yun as your Yun.’

Lu Heyun nodded slightly before he finally left.

After that, Mo Zhiyun grabbed Xu Youyou’s arm excitedly and said, “Sister-in-law, he’s so handsome! How come I didn’t know there’s such a handsome guy in our university?”

Xu Youyou was rather unmoved. She said, “Is he? He’s not as handsome as my brother, and he’s also not as handsome as my Mr. Bai.”

Xu Jialu’s handsome face carried a hint of feminine charm while Mo Shenbai’s had a valiant air about him. Mo Shenbai was like a lone tree by the cliff, upright and aloof.

“Mr. Bai?” Xu Jialu was confused.

“Your brother,” Xu Youyou explained.

“…”

The corners of Mo Zhiyun’s lips twitched before she asked, “It’s fine if you say he’s not as handsome as my brother, but how can you say he’s not as handsome as Xu Jialu? Lu Heyun is as, if not more, handsome as Xu Jialu. By the way, is my brother aware that you refer to him as Mr. Bai? Did he agree to you calling him by that nickname?”

“He’s not as handsome as my brother, let alone more handsome than my brother,” Xu Youyou said stubbornly. In her heart, Mo Shenbai took first place, and Xu Jialu took second place. Even if a divine being came, he would still be third place in her heart.

Then, Xu Youyou replied to Mo Zhiyun’s question, “Not only did he agree, but he also adapted very quickly to the nickname.”

Mo Zhiyun: “…”

‘Brother, your character has changed completely!’

…

Xu Youyou did not tell Mo Shenbai about what had happened at the university, and she also forbade Mo Zhiyun from telling him. Since the matter had passed, she did not want to trouble him anymore.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Lin Zhihuan was already punished, and it had also been confirmed that she was lying about possessing the photos from that year. The police had confirmed that the photos from that time had been deleted and that there was no backup.

Although Bai Qingyun was only punished with monetary compensation, some of her matters when she was abroad suddenly appeared on the Internet. It came to light that contrary to what she said, she had never won any official competition abroad. Her plagiarism scandal was also ruthlessly exposed. It was said that she only returned to the country, creating the image of a beautiful and talented artist because she could not make any progress abroad. Due to her looks, Bai Qingyu had attracted a number of fans on the Internet. She was about to become an Internet celebrity when these rumors appeared, damaging her reputation.

Although Mo Shenbai did not say anything, Xu Youyou knew Mo Shenbai must have asked people to deal with Bai Qingyu.

To thank everyone and to celebrate moving on from her past, Xu Youyou even invited everyone for a drink at Blue Temptation.

…

Mo Zhiyun sat on the couch with her phone in her hands. She searched Lu Heiyun’s name on the university forum, and many posts popped up immediately. There were many posts with words such as ‘the genius of the finance department’, ‘the most handsome student in Mo City University, and ‘the light of the finance department’ that were used to describe Lu Heiyun.

Upon seeing this, Mo Zhiyun muttered under her breath, “As expected of the man I like…”
