Rebirth! The Assassin's Revenge-Chapter 459: Used to It

Gu Ningyue closed this page and looked at a few others.

They were all videos with low clarity, relying solely on their titles.

In comparison, the one she first saw was already the clearest.

She had moved from initial emotional turmoil to complete indifference. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

She was just wondering, who on earth filmed these things? How did they spread? What was the purpose?

And did Ling Tianyou know?

Probably not! Ling Tianyou is so busy, how could he possibly have time to search for these things?

Moreover, if Ling Tianyou knew, these things probably wouldn’t continue to exist.

Especially the comments below, which initially made her feel utterly disgusted, even furious.

"Wow! So, my male idol had this thing with Chen Rui, I ship this pair!"

"I also think Chen Rui and President Ling are a better match! Gu Ningyue, you homewrecker, please go away!"

"Exactly, exactly! Using a bit of beauty to dream above one’s station!"

"The male idol must be bewitched by Gu Ningyue!!! Wake up, my idol!"

"Just a passerby, but this duo in the video has a strong CP feel!"

"..."

Furious, Gu Ningyue even wanted to reply a few comments, but luckily rationality calmed her down, or else she might still be arguing with these people now.

No, these people know nothing, they aren’t worth it!

After seeing everything presented in the browser, Gu Ningyue opened the local forum.

The post about Gu Wanwan and Ye Mingchen was still on the homepage, it seems these two, no matter if one regained sanity and the other freedom, couldn’t have a bright future.

After all, it’s been posted for all to see; how could there be a turning point?

She looked around and, although she didn’t see any posts about Chen Rui, Ling Tianyou, or herself, unfortunately, others in the forum mentioned the relationship among the three of them in the comments section.

Between the lines, they were all talking about how much Ling Tianyou liked Chen Rui and what he had done for her.

Especially the car accident where he saved Chen Rui; it became quite the ’tale.’

Gu Ningyue looked closely and noted the comments were only from those five or six accounts, all without real-name registration.

This further confirmed that someone was orchestrating this behind the scenes.

Gu Ningyue pondered whether her recent unease wasn’t due to Lin Ruixian having trouble, but related to this matter?

With these thoughts, Gu Ningyue found it harder to fall asleep.

After going through everything, Gu Ningyue sat up and sent Ling Tianyou a message: "Are you asleep?"

After a while, a notification sound came from her phone, "Ding dong——"

Seeing the message in the chat window, she didn’t wait for Aunt Zhang to come up and call her, instead put on her shoes and pushed open the door.

"Knock, knock——"

After a brief knock on the door, Ling Tianyou’s door opened: "Come in!"

Gu Ningyue responded and approached Ling Tianyou’s bed, saying, "I have something to show you."

Ling Tianyou looked puzzled: "What is it?"

Seeing Ling Tianyou’s expression, Gu Ningyue sighed: "Here, it’s this. See for yourself!"

Gu Ningyue handed her phone to Ling Tianyou, looking exasperated.

Ling Tianyou looked at the web pages Gu Ningyue had found, and his previously calm expression slowly changed: "This video is from a few years ago when Chen Rui had a falling out with her family and didn’t want to go home. Her parents came to my house, hoping I could find Chen Rui. Back then, we were all students and didn’t have many thoughts!"

Gu Ningyue nodded, not doubting Ling Tianyou’s words: "You found Chen Rui, and she asked you to go on stage to sing for her as leverage to go home with you, but unfortunately, she didn’t keep her promise in the end, right?"

Because at the end of the video, Ling Tianyou paused for a few seconds before hastily chasing after her.

Ling Tianyou nodded: "That’s right. At the time, I knew someone was filming, and I was already used to such things, so I didn’t stop it."

Even at school, people often found creative ways to secretly film him.

He had always been a highlight among the crowd, leading to a lack of vigilance many times.

Gu Ningyue sighed softly and said to Ling Tianyou: "Now someone is using these to start gossip about you and Chen Rui again. I estimate that once we announce our engagement in a few days, these people will take over major forums and websites."

Everything happening now is just a setup.

Seeing Gu Ningyue troubled, Ling Tianyou reached out, caressed her long hair, and comforted her: "Don’t worry, I will handle this matter."

Gu Ningyue looked up at Ling Tianyou’s excessively handsome face and suddenly asked a question that even surprised herself: "Were you good to Chen Rui in school?"

Ling Tianyou’s gaze suddenly became evasive: "Not bad! After all, our families are close! We had to maintain appearances."

Gu Ningyue huffed, muttering in a low voice: "I knew it, you were good to her..."

Seeing Gu Ningyue unhappy, Ling Tianyou unexpectedly looked pleased: "Is my little girl getting jealous, hmm?"

Gu Ningyue turned her head, refusing to admit: "I’m not, you two families are ’close,’ what is there to be jealous of!"

She deliberately stressed the words ’close,’ with a touch of gritted-teeth meaning.

Thinking of Ling Tianyou growing up with Chen Rui, her heart inexplicably felt sour and uncomfortable.

Ling Tianyou straightened her head to face him: "Although I’ve known Chen Rui for a long time, the most intimate act was a hug at graduation. Besides, most times, it was Chi Xingtong, the three of us together. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Chi Xingtong."

Gu Ningyue pouted: "Forget it! Chi Xingtong will definitely side with you!"

That girl would be eager for her to be with Ling Tianyou, leaving no chance for Chen Rui, so how could she admit that Ling Tianyou and Chen Rui were closer before?

Ling Tianyou’s slender fingers lifted Gu Ningyue’s chin, his bright eyes deeply gazed at the girl in front of him: "I swear, in my heart, there’s only you, and there will only be you in the future. Trust me, okay?"

He appeared to be so affectionate, and his eyes were like a pool of water ready to drown her at any moment.

Gu Ningyue’s face flushed with two red spots, and just as she was about to speak, a kiss caught her off guard, gently pressing onto her tender cherry lips...
