??Chapter 45: Chapter 45: Whose Fault Is Puppy Love?

Chapter 45: Chapter 45: Whose Fault Is Puppy Love?

“You start trouble and then think you can just leave as if nothing happened? Where’s the justice in that? Tan Lu, the one who just spread the rumor, is your friend, right? Tell your friend to clarify things, and if she can’t, she’d better apologize before leaving!” Xia Enci grabbed Tan Lu by the arm.

Tan Lu’s arm was fiercely seized in front of everyone, and she couldn’t break free, looking quite embarrassed. Unable to contain herself, she blurted out, “What I said is true! If you don’t believe , go ask around, lots of people know it! Jiang Zhe, do you dare to co out and confront ? Do you dare say you didn’t give up on the last piano competition?”

Jiang Zhe lifted his eyes, and although sitting, his gaze made Tan Lu feel crushed; she felt an inscrutable pressure in his eyes that left her completely powerless to retaliate.

The rest were still whispering among themselves, with most still believing Tan Lu’s words.

For girls who are too beautiful, it’s always easy to be associated with the term “vase.”

And puppy love is the issue most easily linked to poor academic performance.

No wonder everyone thinks this way.

“Jiang Fanyue, Tan Lu! What are you talking about!” Gu Jiashun pushed through the crowd and ca in.

At his arrival, many people hushed.

The Gu Family had a respected reputation in Jincheng, and Gu Jiaheng, Gu Jiashun’s brother, was a celebrated person at No.1 Middle School with a limitless future.

Although Gu Jiashun’s grades were not great, no one dared to look down on him.

However, many people knew that Gu Jiashun didn’t like Jiang Zhe. On Jiang Zhe’s first day at No.1 Middle School, he had caused her trouble, and it had been Xia Enci who helped her out.

After that, Gu Jiashun and Jiang Zhe were never on good terms, and many people had seen him giving Jiang Zhe a cold and hostile look.

Now that Gu Jiashun had co over, everyone subconsciously thought he was there to add fuel to the fire.

Gu Jiashun stood firm amidst the crowd and said coldly, “Who said Jiang Zhe was involved in puppy love? Which eye of yours saw that?”

Tan Lu hadn’t actually seen it either, she had just heard Jiang Fanyue ntion it a long ti ago, but even Jiang Fanyue hadn’t been sure if it was true.

But as the saying goes, carelessly spoken words can cause great harm, and Tan Lu had taken the rumor to heart.

Of course, she couldn’t produce any evidence.

“I, I just heard that she didn’t attend the piano competition that year because she went off with a boy. I didn’t see it with my own eyes, but it’s a fact she didn’t show up for the competition!” Tan Lu was still being stubborn.

“Whether she went to the competition or t up with a boy…” Gu Jiashun said.

Around the room, voices of realization went “Oh,” as if to say, was she really involved in puppy love?

Song Xingyu couldn’t hold back any longer, “Gu, what are you talking about? Don’t ntion things you don’t know about!”

He and Gu Jiashun usually got along well. He had turned a blind eye to Gu Jiashun’s cold treatnt of Jiang Zhe, but what was the situation now? What were these allegations?

Spreading rumors about Jiang Zhe in front of Qin Jingchen, did he have a death wish?

He thought of Gu Jiashun as a brother and was giving him a friendly warning!

“Gu!” Song Xingyu was frantic yet couldn’t push through the crowd and chairs to stop Gu Jiashun.

But then they heard Gu Jiashun continue, “That’s because the boy was an orphan that Jiang Zhe had been sponsoring, and he fell critically ill that evening. Jiang Zhe went to visit him!”

After he finished, everyone suddenly understood, “So that’s what happened?”

“I never would have guessed, Jiang Zhe is actually quite compassionate.”

“Seeing her cool and distant deanor, I thought she was heartless and lacked normal human emotions.”

“Even Gu Jiashun, who obviously dislikes her, is saying such things, it seems the story is true.”

Song Xingyu breathed a sigh of relief and cursed, “Gu Jiashun, are you trying to give your father a heart attack!”

Tan Lu was also stunned, she hadn’t expected the story to be like this.

Gu Jiashun couldn’t bother with Song Xingyu and snapped harshly at Tan Lu, “Apologize to Jiang Zhe!”

Tan Lu looked toward Jiang Fanyue.

Jiang Fanyue pinched her palm, never having expected Gu Jiashun would co to speak up for Jiang Zhe.

He disliked Jiang Zhe so much, why on earth would he do that!

She also had no choice but to say, “Tan Lu, please apologize to Jiang.”

Tan Lu reluctantly walked in front of Jiang Zhe, glared at him, and said unwillingly, “I’m sorry.”

“I don’t accept it,” Jiang Zhe said with a slight droop in his brows and eyes, his tone indifferent.

“I’ve already apologized, what else do you want?” Tan Lu was angry.

“You apologizing is your affair, my not accepting is my affair.”

“You!”

Jiang Fanyue gently said, “Jiang, this matter is ultimately my fault, so let

apologize to you too. Tonight, you should still go on stage and compete. Since the chance four years ago was missed, consider this an opportunity given by fate to make it up to you.”

Jiang Fanyue knew she hadn’t practiced the piano for a long ti; her piano had always been left at the Jiang family’s and not taken away. While living at school, only Xiao ng managed to get a pass to use the piano room.

Three days without practice would rust the hands.

It was ti to let Jiang Zhe experience what an official competition was really like.

“Not participating in the competition four years ago ant that it was not as important to

as other things. Now, it’s the sa,” Jiang Zhe said, his words colder now and containing more weight.

Jiang Fanyue smiled faintly, “That’s fine. I’ll go speak with Master Yue and say that everyone has their own aspirations and there’s no need to force it. I hope you have a good mood to watch the competition tonight.”

After saying this, she turned and left.

When she turned, her fingers trembled violently.

The early romance rumors about Jiang Zhe, although not spread by her, she indeed did not speak up for Jiang Zhe back then.

She also hadn’t expected to get a clarification at such an event tonight!

Who knew what the parents would think?

Sure enough, as soon as she returned to Jiang Zhang and Liang Jinlan’s side, Jiang Zhang asked, “So, Jiang Zhe wasn’t involved in a premature romance in junior high?”

“I’m not very clear on my sister’s affairs; she’s always been uncommunicative with ,” Jiang Fanyue said with an innocent expression.

Liang Jinlan said, “Whatever, it was the maid who saw her eting with that boy. When we asked her, she didn’t explain herself. Who can be blad? She didn’t care about sothing as important as the piano competition, what could I have done?”

Jiang Zhang thought about it and agreed, knowing Jiang Zhe’s character was just like that, and at this point, there was no way to redeem the situation.

Jiang Fanyue slightly pinched her fingers, thankful that Jiang Zhang and Liang Jinlan did not say anything more.

After Gu Jiashun resolved the situation, he looked deeply at Jiang Zhe, yet Jiang Zhe didn’t spare him another glance.

He glanced at Qin Jingchen again, then reluctantly turned to leave.

He had just reached backstage when Gu Jiaheng stopped him, “Was what you just said true? Jiang Zhe didn’t give up the piano competition because of a premature romance?”

“Of course, it’s true. With Jiang Zhe’s personality, how could she fancy so young boy?”

“Then why didn’t you tell

earlier?” Gu Jiaheng felt inexplicably uneasy.

“Brother, I didn’t know back then either. I only heard about it recently,” Gu Jiashun explained.

After hearing his explanation, Gu Jiaheng looked down, his eyes dark and unreadable.
