Chapter 116: Chapter 116 Are You Going to Abandon Me?

Rumors spread quickly within small circles, and Yun Shifei had explained them one by one.

She felt like she had let Cheng Lie down once again.

"Did I drag you down again?" Yun Shifei said awkwardly. "Maybe we shouldn’t go home together anymore."

Even though the innocent should remain innocent, she thought, what’s the point if others didn’t believe in her innocence?

Cheng Lie lowered his eyes, and after a long while, he raised them to look at her. "Are you planning to abandon me?"

Those deep black eyes stared at her unwaveringly, as though accusing her of something. Yun Shifei quickly waved her hands. "No, that’s not what I mean. I’m just afraid they’ll say bad things about you."

Why did she suddenly feel guilty?

"It doesn’t matter. I don’t care."

"Oh," Yun Shifei replied.

Since he said that, she felt relieved.

She smiled brightly at Cheng Lie. "I don’t care either."

After all, she’d already lived through an entire lifetime. How could she possibly care about rumors and gossip?

Yet, she didn’t know how these rumors had made their way back home.

As soon as Yun Shifei got home, Xu Ya said to her, "Shifei, I need to talk to you."

"High school is a time for focusing on your studies, you know? Don’t let your mind wander to things like romance."

"I know." Yun Shifei couldn’t help frowning. Who had Xu Ya heard this from?

"Do you really like that boy from the Cheng Family?"

"Cheng Lie and I are just friends."

Hearing how certain Yun Shifei sounded, Xu Ya let out a sigh of relief but still seemed a little uneasy.

"I’m your mom, so I believe you, but outsiders may not understand. If this kind of thing spreads, it could affect your reputation significantly. You need to be more careful in the future."

Yun Shifei nodded.

"Mom, how did you even hear about this?"
