After Reborn, I Became the Bigshots' Beloved-Chapter 307: Shengsheng is About to Become the Class Favorite

Chapter 307: Chapter 307: Shengsheng is About to Become the Class Favorite

——The background of Lu Sheng?

Hearing Journalist Wang’s words, Jiang Yusheng snorted disdainfully, his tone filled with undisguised contempt.

"Isn’t she just the bastard daughter from the countryside that the Lu Family took in? A whore’s daughter, and now even has to call my sister ’Mom.’ What kind of background is that?"

It was clear that Jiang Yusheng, having lived in Beijing for a long time, didn’t care about the happenings in Jiang City. Journalist Wang, with a mysterious expression, leaned into Jiang Yusheng’s ear and whispered a name.

Hearing clearly what Journalist Wang said, Jiang Yusheng was visibly shaken and involuntarily took a deep breath: "...What do you mean?"

"Are you saying that this Lu Sheng has a connection with Li Muchen?"

Those in the media always get firsthand news the fastest.

Journalist Wang straightforwardly said, "More than just a connection, I heard that President Li really cares about her."

"There are rumors that Li Muchen spent several billion to buy her an island, just to build her a mansion as an eighteenth birthday present."

"Moreover, it’s said that people from the Li Family already treat her as Young Madam and Mrs. Li."

"What did you say?" Journalist Wang’s words clearly surpassed Jiang Yusheng’s understanding, "Li Muchen spent several billion, bought Lu Sheng an island and built a mansion as a birthday present??"

Jiang Yusheng’s eyes widened, his face in disbelief.

"Yes," Journalist Wang said, "So, Professor Jiang, had the photo you took been of Professor Peng and some other girl, I would have published the report."

"But this Miss Lu, she is President Li’s precious treasure. If this report implicates her, wouldn’t that be asking for trouble?"

"If I offend President Li, I couldn’t bear the consequences, this isn’t something $100,000 can solve."

Hearing this, Jiang Yusheng finally understood Journalist Wang’s point.

First, he was worried about Li Muchen, and second, he thought the money was too little.

Jiang Yusheng hated such cunning and crafty extortionists the most, but he had no choice; he had staked out for a month to catch Peng Hongyuan in a scandal, and couldn’t just let it go.

Without this opportunity, how could he take his revenge on Peng Hongyuan?

So, Jiang Yusheng took a deep breath: "Originally, I wasn’t targeting kids like Lu Sheng, I wanted you to use these photos and videos to write a report to lead public opinion, to tarnish Peng Hongyuan’s reputation."

"In that case, you can blur out Lu Sheng’s face. Don’t show her face, just reveal their high school uniform, let people see that this is a high school girl, that’s enough."

"If something really comes up in the future, you can say that you received the anonymous leaked photos and videos already censored, and you didn’t know who the girl was."

"As for the payment..." Jiang Yusheng grit his teeth, the hatred surged at being vetoed by Peng Hongyuan that day, "I’ll give you $200,000."

"If you can help me find some online trolls to manipulate public opinion, letting everyone online criticize Peng Hongyuan, I’ll add another $100,000."

$200,000 plus $100,000, that makes $300,000.

Upon hearing this, journalist Wang’s eyes gleamed with delight.

$300,000 for a single report with little risk, and it would also increase their newspaper’s traffic; why not do it.

So he quickly accepted the job: "Certainly, Professor Jiang, just wait and see."

"After all, online, what the truth really is doesn’t matter. Netizens are always blindly led by the nose; what they love most is to stand on their moral high ground and judge others."

Shengjing.

In the afternoon, all the students in the school were immersed in an atmosphere that fluctuated between joy and pain.

The joy was because it was the start of the winter vacation, and they wouldn’t have to attend school from tomorrow.

The pain was because there was just so much! homework! for the winter break!

From tomorrow until the 16th of the first lunar month, it’s less than a month, yet every subject has issued dozens of exam papers.

Stacked all together, they are so heavy that one can hardly carry them, making one wonder if the holiday is meant for resting at home or working overtime.

"Phew, I’m literally dying, Shengjing’s homework is even more than what our first school issued."

After packing the books she planned to bring home, Lan Yu wiped the sweat from her forehead and looked at Lu Sheng: "Speaking of which, Shengsheng, why aren’t you packing up your papers and books? Aren’t you planning on taking anything home?"

After asking, she turned her gaze to Lu Youming, who had a similarly indifferent expression like Lu Sheng, and couldn’t help but shrug her shoulders.

"Well, you siblings indeed don’t need to bring books back home. After all, there isn’t a question in the book that you two don’t know."

"Not exactly," Lu Sheng glanced at the desk, "I wasn’t planning to bring the books, but I need to take the papers since I can’t skip on handing in the homework."

Lan Yu laughed: "The head teacher would definitely be delighted to hear that, especially since not only are you great academically, but also such a good student."

While Lan Yu was talking to Lu Sheng, she looked up and caught sight of three or four girls from their class seemingly looking their way, appearing to be struggling with something.

Lan Yu, always straightforward, called out to them from afar: "Hey? What’s up, is something the matter?"

Seeing Lan Yu addressing them directly, the girls exchanged glances, took a deep breath, and walked towards the last row.

First, they glanced at Lan Yu, then all turned to look at Lu Sheng with somewhat awkward expressions.

One of the taller girls spoke up, "...So here’s the thing, winter vacation is approaching, and we wanted to ask if Lu Sheng has any study notes or something."

"If you do, could you take some photos for us? That way, if we have any questions we don’t understand while reviewing at home, we can refer to them."

The girl speaking was Chen Li, who seemed very embarrassed and spoke in a low voice.

These girls, coming from not particularly wealthy families, were very dedicated to their studies.

No wonder they felt so restrained, being very cautious in approaching to talk.

Because Lu Sheng’s presence made them feel too distanced.

From the day she transferred to Shengjing, she seemed to always be the center of attention.

No matter whether it was good or bad, whether admired and praised or targeted by jealousy. Even when thrust into the spotlight and criticized, she always managed to handle the situation effortlessly.

She was too beautiful, too excellent, entirely different from ordinary people like them.

Or rather, they felt that between them and someone like Lu Sheng, there was an invisible barrier.

It seemed only exceptional people like Lu Youming, Han Jing, Lan Yu, and Huo Yu were worthy of approaching her, talking to her, and becoming her friends.

So, for a long time, it seemed like no one ever approached the last row in the classroom, nor did anyone else ever initiate conversation with Lu Sheng.

Chen Li didn’t know about others, but she herself didn’t dare to.

Standing alongside such a dazzling individual, just thinking about it made her feel somewhat inferior. And she feared the latter might not even want to bother with her, which would be even more embarrassing.

"Study notes?"

Upon hearing the girl’s words, Lu Sheng looked up, "Sorry, I don’t keep those."

"Ah, oh, that’s okay. It’s no problem, we were just asking!"

Although there were no study notes to be photographed, the fact that the girl had responded to her, and even apologized, made Chen Li feel overwhelmingly flattered.

As Chen Li waved her hands and was about to turn and leave with the others, Lu Sheng called out, "Wait a moment."

The girl’s voice remained cool, but her gaze was gentle, "Though I don’t keep study notes, I have all the knowledge in my head."

"If you encounter any problems during your review at home, feel free to message me directly."
