Chapter 237: Chapter 237: The Rumor Terminator Yue Jiannan
In this era, students who could attend school in the city often came from families with good financial conditions.
Somebody actually recognized Yue Jiandong.
“Is that Boss Yue? I saw him once at my dad’s restaurant. He supplies goods to many reputable diners in the city, doing quite a big business.”
“So Yue Jiannan is his brother? Wow, he usually keeps such a low profile, you really can’t tell.”
People were abuzz with discussions, without a shred of doubt remaining.
Yu Yaxian’s friends, with their faces flushed and ears red, didn’t bother to say much else to Yu Yaxian and turned to leave.
Reputation was highly valued in this generation, and since Yu Yaxian had been involved in a deceitful marriage, they were definitely not going to associate with her anymore.
Song Qiming’s face was an ashen grey, wishing he could just shake his sleeves and walk away right then and there.
Yet, he and Yu Yaxian had already had that kind of relationship, and in traditional views, she was already his woman.
He could only angrily ask Yu Yaxian, “Is everything he said true?”
Yu Yaxian wept, her tears like rain on pear blossoms, “None of that is true. I did indeed get engaged to him, but later on, we found out we were incompatible, so my family went to break off the engagement and returned the betrothal gifts along with the money from over the years.”
It was apparent to any discerning eye that these were just excuses.
She probably had no choice but to return it after being exposed, or else why didn’t she dare to rebut any of his accusations earlier?
And now she had finally found an excuse?
Moreover, the story that had been circulating in the school about Yue Jiannan hounding Yu Yaxian was now clear to everyone who had started it.
Song Qiming was no fool, but with things having come to this, he had to pretend to believe Yu Yaxian.
All he could do was grit his teeth and look at Yue Jiannan, “Since it’s all a misunderstanding, there’s no point in discussing it further, let’s leave it at that.”
After saying this, he didn’t wait for Yue Jiannan to speak again but hurried towards the school gate.
Yu Yaxian quickly jogged to catch up, never expecting that such an incident would occur on her birthday.
From today onward, who knew how people would point fingers and gossip about her.
Yu Yaxian’s heart brimmed with silent hatred, blaming Yue Jiannan for everything.
But from a distance, she could again hear Yue Jiandong’s voice.
“Mom, the houses in Zizhu Community are about to go on sale soon, if we go now we’ll be right on time.”
Yu Yaxian’s steps faltered. Zizhu Community was the new development by the government, wasn’t it? The one where buying a house would come with a local household registration?
Her brother had been making a fuss at home for a long time, wanting the Yu Family to scrape together money to buy a house there to secure a city hukou, but the Yu Family simply couldn’t afford it anymore.
Therefore, Yu Yaxian’s mother had told her to find a way to secure Song Qiming firmly, and then use the marriage gifts to buy a house.

She never imagined that the Yue Family had accumulated such wealth in such a short period of time. If she had known earlier…
Yu Yaxian’s heart was filled with regret and resentment, her gaze falling on Song Qiming ahead, who didn’t stop his steps.
Now she had no choice but to cling on to this man!
But what if Yue Jiannan did get into university…
No, such a thing must not happen under any circumstances.
She could not stand the thought of all her schemes coming to naught at the last.
A chill went through Yu Yaxian as she conceived a wicked plan.
Meanwhile, the onlooking crowd slowly dispersed, and Yue Jiannan muttered about the bad luck of running into them.
“Just my luck to run into these two, what a waste of time.”
Yue Jiandong patted him on the back, “Alright, go study, I’ll come see you next time.”
“No need to, I’m quite busy…”
Yue Qingqing couldn’t help but smile at the sight of her little uncle looking “lost in his studies and wasting away.”
Just then, Lin Yushan mustered the courage to come over and say hello.
