Song Fan came to visit Xiao Xiao to check on her health. They had gone through many trials together, and Song Fan hoped that Xiao Xiao could recover. However, the damage she endured was severe, and Song Fan knew that healing would take time.
That night, Xiao Xiao wanted to invite Song Fan to stay over, but Song Fan had other matters to attend to, so she politely declined.
In just one night, Gu Chen had already figured out Song Fan’s meaning before she left. He reviewed the investigation results that Su Yang had provided, his face devoid of emotion.
Su Yang assumed that he was angry and quickly remarked, “Miss Song probably didn’t mean it. Such rumors can be damaging to her reputation.” Gu Chen disagreed firmly. “You’re mistaken. She did it intentionally.”
Su Yang was taken aback. “Miss Song wouldn’t do something like that, would
Gu Chen lowered his gaze to the documents in his hands. “She doesn’t care about such things. She might even take pleasure in causing trouble for me.” Su Yang was perplexed. “What should we do then?”
After a moment of contemplation, Gu Chen suggested, “Since my Second Uncle and others have already believed in these rumors, why don’t we spread the news even further and let everyone know?”
“But won’t that lead to discussions about Miss Song?” Su Yang didn’t understand why he would suggest this approach.
Gu Chen shook his head. “Since Song Fan dared to make such claims, she should take responsibility. Moreover, in the end, it will be my Second Uncle who will have to apologize.”
After having received his instructions, Su Yang promptly executed the plan. The next morning, Song Fan was awakened by her phone before she had a chance to fully wake up. She answered the call.
“What’s going on with all the rumors circulating outside?” Song Ting asked, trying to suppress his anger.
Song Fan sat up and asked, “What rumors?”
Song Ting let out a sigh. “Everyone is saying that you’re pregnant with Gu Chen’s child and that the Song and Gu families are planning a wedding soon. Is this true?”
Song Fan found the situation increasingly intriguing. Gu Chen had allowed this rumor to spread. It appeared that he had the means to handle the situation.
“You just said it yourself; it’s just a rumor. I’ve only met Gu Chen a few times, so how could I be pregnant with his child? Do these people even consider the facts when they spread such lies?” Song Fan chuckled.
Naturally, Song Fan didn’t admit to uttering those words. Since the rumor had already blown up, she needed to play it cool. In the end, she’d appear more innocent than anyone else.
“It’s true that Gu Chen personally invited you to the banquet,” Song Ting added, still somewhat concerned.
Song Fan smiled. “What does that prove? That doesn’t mean we’re living together. In the eyes of outsiders, does my status not warrant his invitation?”
Song Ting found this reasoning sound. Regardless of Song Fan’s actions, she was still the eldest daughter of the Song Family. Gu Chen’s invitation seemed perfectly reasonable.
“In that case, you don’t need to worry about it. I’ll have someone clear this up. Gu Chen likely has a similar plan in mind,” Song Ting reassured Song Fan.
However, Song Fan didn’t believe that things would unfold as Song Ting hoped.
She ended the call after a few perfunctory words.
Outside the study, Song Yin was taken aback. She hadn’t heard the entire conversation, but the mention of pregnancy alone could tarnish Song Fan’s reputation in school and high society.
Song Yin nearly burst into laughter at the thought of this. She suppressed her emotions and returned to her room, where she turned on her computer and anonymously posted a message on the school forum.
After orchestrating these events, Song Yin was particularly eager to see what would happen at school the next day. She was convinced that Song Fan wouldn’t know how to handle the situation, and perhaps even the principal would decide to fire her.
The post quickly spread on the school forum. Song Kai was in the middle of a basketball game when someone interrupted him. “Brother Kai, do you think this forum post is about Song Fan?”
“What Song Fan? You should address her as Miss Song,” Song Kai replied. “Let me see what the post is about.”

Song Kai’s eyes widened upon reading the sensational headline. His companion asked, “Brother Kai, are you okay?”
Song Kai erupted, “This is utter nonsense!”
Even though Song Fan was a teacher now, it didn’t change her age. How could she possibly be pregnant at this age?
Upon seeing Song Kai’s agitation, his friends quickly reassured him, “This post must have been written by someone without a clue. Miss Song would never do such a thing.”
“That’s right, that’s right. The person who posted this is probably just spreading baseless rumors,” another friend chimed in..
