Ding Yu pondered for a moment.
“That works too.”
Xue Langlang suddenly let out an “Ah” before looking at Ning Li.
Seeing that her expression seemed to be a little off, Ning Li asked, “What’s wrong?”
Xue Langlang was holding the sushi in one hand while the phone was in the other. After hesitating for a while, she handed the phone over.
“Umm, take a look for yourself.”
Ning Li took it.
On a certain gossip forum, someone posted an anonymous post.
[ Discussion: Ning is suspected to have abandoned her biological mother and younger brother? ]
‘There was a picture posted below.
Outside the Xijing University complex, the crowd was crowded. In the middle of the crowd stood two people.
A middle-aged woman who looked to be in her thirties or forties with her tear-streaked face. She looked like she was pleading.
Not far in front of her was a tall and slender figure with her back facing her indifferently.
The photo had been taken from the side so the faces and expressions of these two people could be seen clearly.
The young girl was clearly Ning Li.
She carried a backpack on one shoulder with an indifferent expression on her face, as if she was not moved at all.
The reaction of the two people formed a huge contrast, and the impact was extremely great.
[ It is said that this is Ning’s biological mother. Some time ago, she went to Xijing University to ask Ning for help in settling a matter concerning her brother, but in the end, she was mercilessly rejected. According to a friend who was present that day, her mother was about to kneel down to her at that
time yet she didn’t even turn her head. That’s her own mother, after all. Wasn’t Ning being too cruel by doing this? }
‘There were already many replies below.
[ Ah this? Why does Ning have a younger brother? ]
[ Theard that he has the same mother but a different father. He is only eleven this year and is still a child. }
[ Didn’t she say that her parents divorced when she was young and that she had been raised by her grandmother? Moreover, her mother seems to have lived quite well after remarrying, If she had still cared about her daughter, she would not have let Ning live like that, right? I still remember the photo of
her and Lin Fengmian together. It was so sad. This mother gave birth to her but did not raise her. Is it so wrong if Ning doesn’t want to acknowledge her? ]
[ What the person above said makes sense. But wasn’t her mother there to beg Ning for her brother’s sake? No matter how much hatred she holds for her mother, she shouldn’t transfer all this onto a child, right? Isn’t her brother an innocent? }

[ That’s right. Ning can be considered successful now, so it should be easy for her to help her brother. She’s even able to help Lin Fengmian. Why is she so stingy with her own brother? ]
[ It’s really easy for the person above to talk. Why don’t you go help her then? This mother is really amazing. If Ning was still living the same poor life that she had before, do you think she would remember that she has such a daughter? ]
More and more replies came to the discussion thread.
Everyone had different opinions. The conflict intensified and no one was convinced by anyone.
Some people thought that Su Yuan had not fulfilled her responsibility as a mother, so Ning Li naturally had the right to reject her request.
There were also people who thought that no matter what Su Yuan had done wrong in the past, ultimately, she had given life to Ning Li. Moreover, this time, she was begging her to save her biological brother who was related to her by blood. No matter what, the child should not be involved in this. Ning
Li’s actions were indeed too cold-blooded.
Ning Li returned the phone to Xue Langlang.
Xue Langlang carefully sized up her expression.
“… Ning Li, are you alright?”
Ning Li replied with a “Hmm” and returned to her seat.
She looked like she really did not care at all.
Xue Langlang looked at her phone again. The more she looked at it, the angrier she became.
They all knew exactly what had happened that day.
It was clearly Su Yuan who had wanted to blackmail Ning Li and force her to submit. What did it have to do with Ning Li?
Besides, it was better not to have a mother like that.
They were not Ning Li. They had not experienced what Ning Li had experienced before. What right did they have to stand on the moral high ground and criticize her?
“This post, could it be–”
Xue Langlang thought of Yao Mi
a.
Could it be that she still held a grudge against Ning Li for chasing her out of the dorm, so she had made this post?
Ning Li shook her head.
Even if Yao Mingjia had wanted to do this, she did not have the guts.
After all, Ning Li had already connected the rumors on the campus forum to her.
Yao Mingjia knew very well that if she really did this, Ning Li would definitely find out that it was her.
Although her family was well-off, they were not powerful enough to back her up.
She still had to continue studying at Xijing University.
Ning Li turned on her computer.
“You guys don’t have to worry about this. I’ll handle it.”
Xue Langlang and Ding Yu looked at each other. Thinking about how she had encountered several public opinion crises before and how they had all been successfully resolved, they put their minds at ease.
This post had originally been posted on the gossip forum, but soon, someone moved it to Weibo.
Various marketing accounts reposted the comments one after another. There were even many people who posted on their own accounts to analyze and judge this matter. Thus, they were all freeloading on it.
Although Ning Li did not work in the entertainment industry, her popularity was indeed very high now.
On one hand, it was because of her “National sister’ title, and on the other hand, it was because she was Ning.
These two identities overlapped, making her even more popular than many artistes in the industry.
Now that this matter had been exposed, and it was related to the ethics that the public was most passionate about, these marketing accounts naturally swarmed over.
On Weibo, the haters and passersby argued intensely.
Of course, it was just those same two opinions.
Ning Li only glanced at it casually but did not pay much attention to it.
By nighttime, her name was trending.
Just by clicking on the topic square, one could see the photo of her and Su Yuan.
‘The crowd was in a heated argument.
Xue Langlang waited for a long time. She noticed that the matter was getting bigger and bigger, yet Ning Li still did not seem to have any intention of clarifying or explaining herself.
She struggled with this dilemma for a long time. Initially, she had wanted to ask about it, but when she saw that Ning Li’s expression was calm and she was washing up and resting as per usual, she swallowed her words back.
Forget it.
Ning Li… surely had other plans, right?
Ning Li’s name trended all night on Weibo.
Even until the next morning, when Ning Li woke up, she was still trending at number four.
Originally, this had been her private matter and outsiders had no right to interfere.
However, this matter was too special.
Society and culture valued the word “Filial piety.”
Some people said that there was no such thing as a bad parent.
Some people said that no matter what, your parents had given you life.
Some people said that blood ties were unbreakable, not to mention that the younger brother was innocent.
It was just a small matter of helping out. Why was Ning being so stubborn? Why had she refused to help?
Many people agreed with this argument.
Seeing that there was still no response on Ning Li’s end, many people even began to criticize her.
Ning Li pretended not to see it, put away her phone, and carried her bag out.
She took a taxi to Lan Di Apartments.
She had asked Lin Fengmian for a few autographed albums and autographed photos, but he had wanted to deliver them to her personally. She felt that it was too troublesome, so she had refused.
It had not been easy for her to wait until today. Since Lin Fengmian would be resting today, she said that she would go and get them.
However, just as she reached Lan Di Apartments, she heard an excited voice come from the side before she could even enter.
“Is that Ning?!”
