Chapter 379
Hearing what Liu Qinyue said, Gong Shaoqing and Dongfang Yu couldn’t help but wrinkle their brows as traces of concern appeared in their eyes.
“What happened?”
“Just now, when I was returning from the Pill Masters Guild, I heard Ling Jiaxin and her group publicly declaring Hongzhuang’s pills had no effects and that she cheated them of their money.”
The second Liu Qinyue’s words were spoken, Gong Shaoqing and Dongfang Yu’s expressions both turned unsightly.
“They’re simply just making groundless remarks and distorting facts!” Dongfang Yu rose, his attractive face full of anger. They had all consumed Baili Hongzhuang’s pills already and the effects were marvelous; not only did their channels widen, but they also increased in firmness and toughness.
The more energy one’s meridians can accommodate, the faster one’s energy can circulate during battle; thus, the benefits of a Channel Opening Pill was quite obvious.
“They were deceived but are still trying to show off their cleverness!” Gong Shaoqing’s voice was icy-cold and his eyes were as dark as black holes. Those troublesome people!
“This matter cannot be discredited as they please. It is extremely disadvantageous to Baili Hongzhuang’s reputation, so let’s go look.”
Anxiety could be seen on Dongfang Yu’s face. The longer they drag this out, the more groundless rumors will spread, and the power of such rumors was self-evident. How many people had fallen to rumors? This kind of information would spread rapidly from mouth to mouth until in the blink of an eye, the whole academy would know.
Baili Hongzhuang decided it was about time and left her dorm room. As soon as she stepped out, she saw Dongfang Yu, Gong Shaoqing, and Liu Qinyue swiftly coming down from upstairs.
Before she could speak, Dongfang Yu spoke in a voice filled with concern and tension. “Baili Hongzhuang, have you heard about Ling Jiaxin and her rumors?”
Baili Hongzhuang’s beautiful face carried a polite smile. “I’ve already heard.”
“Those despicable people, they’re actually blackening your name like that. How loathsome!” When mentioning Ling Jiaxin and her group, Dongfang Yu’s face was filled with disgust. Ling Jiaxin and Baili Hongzhuang didn’t have any enmity with each other; he couldn’t understand why Ling Jiaxin was so aggressively going against her.
“Don’t worry, we will definitely stand on your side.”
Seeing Dongfang Yu’s concern, the look in Baili Hongzhuang’s eyes changed a bit. At that moment, Bai Junyu appeared and was also struck speechless by their conversation. He hadn’t expected Ling Jinxia to be so shameless; Baili Hongzhuang really was not wrong.
“Let’s go and see it first,” Gong Shaoqing’s deep voice said. “Looks like we’ll have to challenge them face-on.”
One after another, the rest nodded. They need to go and feel out the situation themselves. Right as they were about to leave, the door next to Baili Hongzhuang’s room opened.
Dibei Chen’s lips held a mesmerizing and mischievous smile, his posture lazy and leisurely. “Looks like trouble has arrived?”
At his words, everyone’s expressions changed. Something they were all reluctant to do, when coming from Dibei Chen’s mouth, why did it sound like they were going to watch a good show?
However, what he said was something only Baili Hongzhuang understood. They were the only ones who had a complete grasp on the situation, so naturally, he knew she had a solution.
Dongfang Yu’s handsome brows wrinkled, the eyes he looked at Dibei Chen with brimmed with queries and dissatisfaction.
“Baili Hongzhuang is your wife, how can you be so indifferent to her problems? Don’t you know how harmful this matter is to Baili Hongzhuang’s reputation?”
