Chapter 329: Chapter 329: Last Year I Bought a Watch Chapter 329: Chapter 329: Last Year I Bought a Watch “What??”
As soon as Lu Sheng said this, everyone in the family was shocked.
“…What?” Lu Jingyan’s eyes widened, “Shengsheng, are you saying that the report claims that Dean Peng used a special admission slot to lure you? And that the girl who gave money and gifts to Professor Peng was also you?”
“What the hell?” Jiang Ting got anxious as soon as she heard it, cursing as it involved Lu Sheng, “What crap is that report spouting!”
“It’s clear that Professor Peng valued our Shengsheng’s talents and actively offered her the slot, how could it beco luring?”
Lu Sheng spoke with a serious tone: “Dean Peng has indeed never used a slot to lure in any way, and that bank card and gifts were indeed my own things.”
“That article is completely based on a few stolen photos and on the fact that Professor Peng wanted to give the slot, fabricating rumors out of thin air.”
“The so-called whistleblower wants to use this incident to destroy Professor Peng’s reputation, subject him to public condemnation and ruined fa, and even face more severe punishnt.”
Lu Jingyan couldn’t help but take a deep breath.
When he first saw the Weibo post this morning, he didn’t take the article about Peng Hongyuan seriously.
After all, he didn’t know Professor Peng, and he only rembered him because of the ti Lu Sheng received a call from Peng Hongyuan, so he took a closer look.
Lu Jingyan had never imagined that the underage girl ntioned in the report as being lured would be his own sister.
He was originally skeptical about the authenticity of the news content, but now it’s clear that it is certainly a rumor, and his precious sister was also wrongly caught up in it.
Luckily, the photos of Lu Sheng were blurred out. If they hadn’t been and it led to negative comnts about Shengsheng, he’d go to great lengths to find that sneaky whistleblower and rumor monger!
Lu Ziye also put away his usual carefree smile and asked seriously, “Sweetie, from the tone of your voice, do you know who is fanning the flas behind this?”
“Yes, that’s what I ca back to discuss with mom,” she replied.
Lu Sheng nodded, then turned to Jiang Ting and said, “Mom, Professor Peng told that the person who took the pictures and spread the rumors might be Professor Jiang.”
“Professor Jiang?” Jiang Ting was surprised, her mouth agape, “…Shengsheng, are you talking about your uncle?”
Although Lu Sheng never called Jiang Yusheng uncle, Jiang Yusheng was after all Jiang Ting’s brother and indeed her uncle by seniority.
Lu Sheng repeated what Peng Hongyuan had told her earlier.
She ntioned that Jiang Yusheng was vetoed by Peng Hongyuan when he was about to be promoted from vice dean to dean, and he might bear a grudge and do sothing like this.
She also said that the matter was getting more heated, and if it turns serious and beyond control, Professor Peng could be crushed by public opinion and his life completely destroyed.
Therefore, she wanted to find Jiang Yusheng on behalf of Professor Peng to clear things up. If it indeed was him, she wanted him to go clarify.
“…Shengsheng,” upon hearing this, Jiang Ting took a deep breath, as if making up her mind before speaking, “Your uncle is my own brother, I know his character.”
Lu Sheng thought Jiang Ting was going to say that she understood Jiang Yusheng and he couldn’t possibly do such a thing.
But Jiang Ting’s next words were decisive, “With your uncle’s character, he is entirely capable of such duplicitous and malicious deeds.”
“…”
Lu Sheng, Lu Youming, and Lu Youye all silently glanced at their mother.
Their mom was indeed very clear about her own brother’s nature.
Jiang Ting said, “Wasn’t that photo taken yesterday? If it was indeed your uncle who took it, then he must have co to Jiang City, but he hasn’t ntioned it to .”
“Don’t panic, Shengsheng, I’ll call him right away. If he’s in Jiang City, I’ll invite him over to our house.”
“If this disgraceful act was really done by your uncle, and he even got you involved, he’s trying to send to my grave.”
Jiang Ting just took out her phone when Lu Sheng stopped her, “Wait, mom.”
“It’s better not to ntion this matter to Professor Jiang. I’m afraid if you bring it up, if it really was him, he would be too guilty to co over.”
Jiang Ting considered it and found it made sense.
She rehearsed her words in her mind, then called Jiang Yusheng.
Unlike the situation where she couldn’t get through to Peng Hongyuan at all, Jiang Ting’s call to Jiang Yusheng was answered after just a few rings.
Lu Sheng and Li Muchen exchanged glances.
It seems that Jiang Yusheng has blacklisted Professor Peng, which further indicates his guilty conscience.
“Hello, Tingting, why the sudden call?” Jiang Yusheng’s voice ca through the speakerphone, sounding quite cheerful.
Jiang Ting spoke into the phone, “Brother, you haven’t been to Jiang City for the past six months, right? Are you planning to stay in Jiang City for a few days?”
“Ziye ca back ho yesterday after finishing up his drama shoot and will stay until New Year’s. Why don’t you also co over and join us?”
Jiang Ting knew that Jiang Yusheng’s daughter Jiang ngbao was a fervent fan of Lu Ziye.
If Jiang Yusheng was in Jiang City and knew that Lu Ziye was ho, he would co over just to get an autograph for his daughter.
Sure enough, once Jiang Yusheng heard that Lu Ziye was ho, he perked up, “Ziye is ho? I just happened to be on a business trip to Jiang City yesterday, but I was too busy to tell you.”
“Then that’s great, co over for dinner tonight, let’s have a family al together,” Jiang Ting promptly suggested.
“I’ll co over and get a few autographs from Ziye to take back for ngbao, but as for dinner… I’d rather not,” Jiang Yusheng humd, “That little bastard from the countryside is still at your place, isn’t she? Just seeing her would ruin my appetite.”
“? I’m going to your m…”
Jiang Ting, with her level-ten protective rage and protective mother instincts, was about to blow up at Jiang Yusheng when he insulted Lu Sheng by calling her a little bastard, nearly cursing him out loud over the phone on the spot.
Fortunately, Lu Sheng quickly held her back.
After taking a couple of deep breaths, Jiang Ting managed to forcefully switch the topic back, “I an, I bought a watch last year, and I thought I’d show it to you tonight to see if you like it.”
