Chapter 90
Ling Ye was still staring blankly at the departing figures of Lai Xueer and her group when the surrounding students quietly started to gossip.
"I knew it. Lai Xueer has always looked down on Ling Ye, just stringing him along. She only makes friends based on whether they wear brand names, how could she possibly fancy someone like Ling Ye in his no-brand clothes."
"Lai Xueer was already together with Ren Huo, wasn’t she? After the night self-study session ended the other day, I saw them kissing passionately behind the teachers’ building. Why did she just now say they officially started dating?"
"Poor Ling Ye. He insisted on bringing Lai Xueer milk tea every day, and in doing so, ended up driving her away."
The voices of this gossiping made Ling Ye’s face turn exceptionally ugly.
Actually, people had already told him something similar before, advising him not to waste time on Lai Xueer.
But he didn’t believe them. He trusted Lai Xueer, and thought those speaking badly of her were just jealous of their relationship, and even beat someone up over it.
Now, it seemed like everyone had seen through Lai Xueer’s true face, merely trying to wake him up.
Ling Ye felt terribly sad, tasting the pain of heartbreak for the first time in his young life, feeling somewhat lost and helpless.
At that moment, the voice of Jiang Moxi reached him: "Are you okay?"
Perhaps because Jiang Moxi had helped him and his sister before, Ling Ye always felt she was like a family member.
