Zhao Lei did not have such strong aggression toward Zhou Xue, and he could not say anything to reprimand her. He could only say, “It’s not Sister’s fault. I didn’t understand and was easily swayed.”

Zhou Xue looked very touched and pulled Zhao Lei to talk for a long time. This successfully lowered Zhao Lei’s guard.

Then, as if on a whim, she asked, “Did you and Xinxin know each other before the show?”

Hearing Zhou Xue’s question, Zhao Lei was stunned for a moment before replying, “Yes, I know her, but she doesn’t know me.” When he said this, it made people even more curious.

Although Li Xing was not interested in the relationship between the two children, seeing that Zhou Xue’s attention had been diverted, he followed this topic and asked, “Is Yue Xin very famous in school? I don’t think she likes to talk much on the show.”

Zhao Lei was a little hesitant. Recalling the rumors he had heard before, he finally decided to believe his own judgment. “She often hangs out with a very bright boy in school, so she will also be discussed by many people… She wasn’t a quiet person in the past.”

Zhou Xue immediately caught the main point. Thinking of Zhao Lei’s hostility towards Yue Xin at the beginning, she seemed to understand something. “What did the school say about her? Did Yue Xin get a boyfriend at such a young age?”

“He’s not a boyfriend…” The rumors in school were all saying that Yue Xin was Lu Yu’s exclusive toy, a good-looking and expensive toy.

Zhao Lei wasn’t the kind of child from an ordinary family who didn’t know anything about the world. He knew a little about Aixi Private School and knew that it wasn’t a good thing. The show was broadcasting live, so he really couldn’t say it out loud. He could only change the topic to Lu Yu. “Anyway, the boy with Yue Xin isn’t a good person. Yue Xin should have been deceived.”

Originally, most of the viewers were squatting in Yue Xin’s live stream. Only his family and that unreliable sister were in Zhao Lei’s live stream. Coincidentally, among Zhao Lei’s relatives, there was a fan who had just been assigned to Yue Xin. This morning, she fought one against a hundred on the Internet and desperately clung to the reputation of Yue Xin and the Yue family. After discovering that Zhao Lei’s words had exposed another history of Yue Xin’s victimization, she hurriedly called her friends and went to investigate the truth together. They would protect Sister Xin!

Zhao Lei still remembered the first time he saw Yue Xin at the music festival competition. At that time. Yue Xin played her own original song with the pipa and took first place. The sound of the pipa was like a breeze that blew into Zhao Lei’s heart. He was immersed in the tune, and for the first time, he experienced the feeling of being “indulged and not knowing how to return.” Although he only got second place because of Yue Xin, he was convinced that Yue Xin deserved to be first place.

When he stood on the podium with Yue Xin, Zhao Lei was actually very excited although he didn’t show it. But slowly, rumors began to spread in the school. They were all about Yue Xin’s relationship with Lu Yu and claimed that Yue Xin relied on Lu Yu to live. Some people even said that the song Yue Xin won at that time was bought by the Lu family and she didn’t compose it herself.

Initially, Zhao Lei did not believe it. He had personally seen the emotions that Yue Xin revealed when she played that song. How could it be fake? However, he did not expect Lu Yu to not deny it after hearing this rumor.

Therefore, Yue Xin’s song was indeed someone else’s. At that moment, something in Zhao Lei’s heart seemed to have collapsed. He originally admired Yue Xin so much, but now he hated her. It would be fine if he lost to someone with real ability, but what was it if he lost to someone who relied on a man to spend money to buy a song?

At that time, Zhao Lei had believed the rumors lightly. Even if there were many unreasonable points in the rumors, he did not investigate further. However, after interacting with Yue Xin, he recalled the rumors and still believed that the song was originally by Yue Xin. In school, everyone thought that what Lu Yu said was true, but they had never heard Yue Xin say anything. They all felt that what Yue Xin said was not important. Perhaps it was because of this that Yue Xin did not say a word now.

When he no longer looked at everything with prejudice, he realized that the real problem was not Yue Xin, but Lu Yu. He really wanted to apologize to Yue Xin in person, not only because of what happened on the show, but also because he believed the rumors in the school.

“Xinxin was deceived? What happened? Does Xinxin’s family know?” Zhou Xue asked three questions in a row. She seemed to really care about Yue Xin. She also realized that she had been too agitated and hurriedly explained, “I’m sorry. I’ve been suppressing the matter of Xinxin that day. No matter what, I want to make it up to her. If Xinxin encountered something bad in school and she’s unwilling to say it, I think it’s better to tell Teacher Yue..”
