Wang Shuai, observing Old Wang’s perplexed expression, sneered and said, “Boss, don’t waste your time on him. He’s nothing more than Bai Xue’s lapdog.”
Lin Sheng, catching on to the situation, glanced at Old Wang and comprehended the context.
A growing sense of unease crept over Old Wang. If these rumors were to spread, it could spell trouble for Bai Xue. His frustration escalated, and he protested, “Why are you spreading baseless accusations? Stop making unfounded claims.”
Wang Shuai responded coldly, “I could even pinpoint exactly where you held hands with Bai Xue. Should 1 reveal this information and potentially lead to Bai Xue leaving Li Yan for you?”
Sun Qiang chimed in with a chuckle, “A breakup? If Li Yan doesn’t give him a good beating, he should thank his lucky stars.”
Old Wang clenched his teeth but couldn’t bring himself to respond.
Wang Shuai said, “Don’t mess with Jiang Ling’er, and mind your own business.”
Old Wang asked angrily, “Are you threatening me?”
Wang Shuai brandished his phone, giving Old Wang a clear warning not to meddle in Jiang Ling’er’s affairs.
Fuming with anger, Old Wang left the cafeteria after barely touching his meal.
Back in the dormitory, he vented his frustration by pounding his bed a few times, muttering under his breath, “Who do they think they are? So arrogant.”
Little Six offered a sarcastic comment, saying, “Taking your anger out on your bed won’t change anything.”
Old Wang seethed, “They’re blackmailing me.”
Little Six, looking at Old Wang’s agitated state, sighed in exasperation as he reminded him, “What’s there to be so angry about? When you were spreading rumors about the Jiang family coercing Bai Xue, weren’t you just as guilty? At least they have evidence. Do you?”
Old Wang remained silent, his head hung low. He had simply believed that Bai Xue must have been threatened; otherwise, why would she issue a public apology? The situation had undoubtedly left its mark.
With a deep, meaningful tone, Little Six continued, “Don’t get involved with Jiang Ling’er. I’ve already warned you. If you think your actions have gone unnoticed, you’re mistaken. People might not want to confront you, but if you persist in acting recklessly, don’t blame them for taking drastic measures.”
Old Wang continued to remain silent, his heart filled with turmoil. He couldn’t shake the belief that Bai Xue had been threatened. Otherwise, why would she apologize publicly? Yet he couldn’t bring himself to voice these suspicions.
Little Six let out a light sigh and said, “You’re truly fearless. You initiated the contact back then, didn’t you? I don’t understand why Bai Xue didn’t puli away considering she has a boyfriend. Do you think a good girl would have done that?”
Old Wang began to explain himself, saying, “Don’t misunderstand. 1 made the first move. I’m just puzzled as to why Bai Xue didn’t resist. I was feeling particularly cheerful that day, and maybe I seemed different to her.”
Little Six gazed at Old Wang in disbelief. Was this what they called “thinking too highly of oneself”?
Little Six retorted, “Why didn’t she resist? Because she knew you wanted something in return. Offer a few sweet moments, and you’d be satisfied. Now do you understand?”
After a momentary pause, Little Six added, “When you were spreading rumors about the Jiang family’s alleged threats to Bai Xue, what benefit did you gain from it? But for Bai Xue, there were numerous advantages. You’re no different from those sycophants. Give them a taste of sweetness, and they’ll fall head over heels. They’d lay down their lives for Bai Xue. Have you ever treated your own mother this well in your entire life?”
Old Wang kept his head down, unable to respond. He knew that what Little Six said was true, but he couldn’t bring himself to admit it..
