282 Still Too Young
As the afternoon class was about to start, Wang Heng sat in the classroom, took out his phone, and answered the call from Han Yixuan. Then, he heard the troublesome news.
“Sister Xu just told me that Little Le and the others are being blackmailed!” Han Yixuan said urgently, “Someone secretly took photos of you and Little Le together, and she was even pulling your clothes…”
Hearing this description, Wang Heng immediately recalled what happened last night. It turned out that the paparazzi wasn’t secretly taking pictures from the bottom of the apartment building, but had been following them from the beginning.
However, he didn’t panic, but asked, “What do Sister Xu and Little Le plan to do? Did they tell you?”
“They said they can’t give in easily, otherwise the other party will definitely push their luck, but… Little Le is a public figure now, but you aren’t. You’ll be disturbed at school, right?”
There was obvious worry in Han Yixuan’s tone, but the root of this worry was hard to say.
Wang Heng pondered for a long time and said in a deep voice, “In other words, Little Le and Sister Xu think it’s okay for this kind of scandal to break out?”
Han Yixuan: “They seem to mean that the possible impact of the scandal is within the tolerable range.”
Wang Heng: “…”
After waiting for a while and realizing he was silent again, Han Yixuan couldn’t help but say urgently, “Then what do you plan to do? There are so many people in your school, there must be fans of Little Le. If you become Little Le’s rumored boyfriend, you won’t have any peace in the future, right?”
Wang Heng thought carefully.
To say no peace, probably not to that extent. After all, he wasn’t a star, and it was unknown how big this scandal could get. Even if those gossip media lied that he spent the night at Pei Ningle’s home, given the girl’s current fame, it was obviously far less than the news related to those popular stars in the entertainment industry.
But again, the problem wasn’t with Pei Ningle, nor in the school. The key to the problem was what the other three girls would think and do…
Wang Heng suddenly said, “I’ll think of a way.”
Han Yixuan couldn’t help asking, “What way? Are you going to contact the paparazzi and give him money?”
“It’s not that simple, but there should be a way… That’s it for now, I’m hanging up.”
After hanging up, Wang Heng put away his phone and patted Tang Hexing on the shoulder next to him.
He whispered, “Help me bring my books back to the dorm later.”
Tang Hexing was stunned for a moment, then realized, “You’re skipping class?”
Wang Heng nodded. “Something urgent.”
Tang Hexing: “The professor is already on the stage, and you’re skipping class now?”
Wang Heng patted his shoulder again, said nothing more, stood up, and walked out openly.

When Wang Heng returned to the dormitory, he was the only one in the room—of course, his roommates were all in class, and he was the only one who skipped class.
Sitting at his desk, taking the hamster out of the cage, he asked seriously, “You know where the paparazzi who secretly photographed me and Pei Ningle is, right?”
The hamster asked back, “What do you want to do?”
Wang Heng: “Make him realize his mistake and stop the blackmail.”
The hamster: “Understood, just beat him up and delete the photos and other evidence of the scandal, right?”
Wang Heng said seriously, “Don’t be so violent. I’m an honest and law-abiding citizen. Reasonably speaking, can you tell me?”
The hamster thought for a moment, turned around, and jumped onto the keyboard.
After a crackling dance, a new document appeared on the screen, which read: 【Xia Yutian, 27 years old, male, professional entertainment reporter, on the train back to Modu…】
After outputting, the hamster leisurely returned to the cage, hiding its merit and fame.
While buying a plane ticket, Wang Heng sighed, “It’s nice to have a golden finger.”

Ye Xun hesitated for many days before finally making up her mind to make this call.
The call connected, and Lu Qi’s voice sounded: “Hello?”
The girl mustered up her courage and said, “Hello Sister Lu, I’m Ye Xun, the one who played games with you during the summer vacation…”
Lu Qi said calmly, “I know, I saved your number too. What can I do for you?”
Ye Xun: “I was thinking, do you know about Senior Wang Heng starting a business recently?”
“Starting a business?” Lu Qi paused. “He seems to have always had similar ideas.”
Ye Xun added, “Uh, he has already established a company, and now the assistant beside him is Senior Sister Han Yixuan…”
Before she finished speaking, the mature woman on the other end of the phone couldn’t stay calm anymore: “What did you say?”
Ye Xun whispered repeatedly, “The assistant beside Senior Wang Heng is Senior Sister Han Yixuan.”
Both were silent for a while.
From getting to know each other a few days ago until now, Ye Xun and Lu Qi hadn’t talked much about Wang Heng. To be precise, the two hadn’t talked much at all. But at this moment, mentioning ‘Han Yixuan working as an assistant beside Wang Heng’, no explanation was needed, and both immediately understood the meaning of this matter.
That was, Han Yixuan was consolidating her position.
Suddenly, Lu Qi said solemnly, “I understand, thank you for your reminder. You are in your third year of high school now, are you very busy?”
Ye Xun: “Yes…”
Lu Qi: “Then leave it to me, I’ll handle it. You study hard first, the college entrance exam is the most important.”
You handle it, how to handle it?
Ye Xun suddenly panicked a little and couldn’t help asking, “Sister Lu, what do you plan to do? Senior Sister Han Yixuan is his girlfriend after all, you…”
“Girlfriend?” Lu Qi interrupted, “Who told you that?”
Ye Xun: “They all said so.”
Lu Qi: “You believe whatever they say?”
In an instant, Ye Xun was stunned.
Thinking back carefully, it seemed that Pei Ningle told her at the beginning that Han Yixuan was Wang Heng’s girlfriend… But what about after that?
“If Han Yixuan is really his girlfriend, what about you, me, and Pei Ningle? Do you think Han Yixuan is so generous and not jealous at all?” Lu Qi said leisurely.
Ye Xun murmured, “Are they all lying to me…”
Lu Qi laughed. “Not just you, but me too. It’s just that I’m not as naive as you, and can see the details in their interaction.”
“Naive…” Ye Xun didn’t want to admit it, but she really couldn’t deny it.
Maybe it was because Pei Ningle swore so solemnly at the beginning, and Han Yixuan’s acting skills were good, so it left a preconceived impression on her. Even when the five of them played games together during the summer vacation later, Ye Xun didn’t think too much.
Didn’t think of the possibility that Han Yixuan was actually just a shield…
“I really am too young.” Ye Xun couldn’t help sighing.
However, at the same time, the mature woman on the other end of the phone fell silent.
After all, being young seemed to be a considerable advantage already.
