After Transmigrating, I Lived with the Charismatic/Beloved Female Lead - Chapter 4
Chapter 4
Someone fainting was a serious matter. The instructor quickly rushed over. After a brief look, he shouted, “The school clinic isn’t far! A few students, quickly take her to the clinic!”
Immediately, several boys excitedly raised their hands and ran over, surrounding Wei Yue and Lu Yuanqiu.
Wei Yue also wanted to quickly take Lu Yuanqiu to the school clinic for a check-up. As she prepared to stand up, she felt a resistance.
She looked down and saw that her clothes corner was being held by Lu Yuanqiu.
Even though Lu Yuanqiu was unconscious, the hand gripping her clothes was so tight, even the fingertips were white.
Eh?
Wei Yue was momentarily confused by Lu Yuanqiu’s action. Because of this hesitation, the boys who were about to reach out had to stop.
“Instructor! We’ll do it.”
Another female voice spoke up. Wei Yue looked up and saw a girl with shoulder-length hair and glasses walking towards them: “We’re the military training reporters. We don’t need to participate in training and can stay with this student throughout.”
The instructor thought it made sense that accompaniment was necessary, so he waved his hand: “Alright, alright, you few get it done quickly!”
Seeing the coveted errand fly away, the boys sighed and had to leave, and Lu Yuanqiu was helped up.
Wei Yue followed a few steps, only to notice a burning pain coming from her knee.
“Student, you’ve also been injured!”
Wei Yue realized it was the girl with glasses who came over, took her hand, and said: “Let’s go to the school clinic together. Be careful about infection.”
“Oh, oh…” Wei Yue was simultaneously recalling Lu Yuanqiu’s action just now and marveling at how genuinely helpful this girl was.
“She has a bit of low bl00d sugar. Luckily, she didn’t sustain any head injuries and should wake up soon. Avoid strenuous exercise for a while and ensure adequate rest.”
As a nationally renowned comprehensive university, K University’s school clinic was well-equipped with medical facilities and staff.
After examining Lu Yuanqiu and confirming there were no major issues, the doctor gave a few instructions and left the ward.
Congratulations to the host for successfully completing the mission, rewarding 12 hours of life value. Current cumulative life value: 55 hours!
Wei Yue was applying iodine to her knee when she heard the system’s report. A large patch of skin was scraped raw and looked bloody. The sting of the iodine magnified the pain, spreading it out, making her temporarily unable to pay attention to the system’s voice.
“You’ve fallen quite badly.”
Jiang Yun-juan the girl with glasses walked over, holding a pack of cotton swabs for Wei Yue. She gasped when she saw the wound on her leg.
“A run of bad luck, I guess…” Wei Yue was wincing in pain, inhaling sharply as she replied.
Hearing this, Jiang Yun-juan looked at Wei Yue, who was struggling to apply the medicine, then at Lu Yuanqiu lying on the hospital bed. She seemed to weigh her words, sat down next to Wei Yue, and said softly: “You really are a bit unlucky. Have you checked the school BBS?”
“BBS?” Wei Yue knew that most universities had their own forum website, collectively called a BBS, but it was only the second day of school, and she hadn’t even registered an account.
Seeing that Wei Yue clearly had no idea, Jiang Yun-juan handed her phone directly to Wei Yue: “Just now, several posts suddenly popped up on the BBS, discussing you and Student Lu.”
Hearing this, Wei Yue’s knee pain vanished from the shock. She quickly took Jiang Yun-juan’s phone and started browsing.
First was a thread discussing the high-value male and female freshmen, which seemed to contain secretly taken photos from the military training.
Wei Yue scrolled a few times and saw that photos of her and Lu Yuanqiu were prominently featured in the post, with quite a high discussion rate.
She wasn’t surprised by this result. The original owner’s appearance was naturally sweet and bright, and Lu Yuanqiu, as the female lead, was exceptionally beautiful—otherwise, the original owner wouldn’t have been so relentlessly hostile towards her.
The initial comments discussed their beauty, but soon different content appeared.32L: The beautiful girls in the third and fourth pictures seem to have some gossip!
34L: What gossip! The forum has been too boring lately, bring on the excitement!
37L: Apparently, they knew each other before, and their relationship wasn’t good. They fought right away during the military training and both ended up in the school clinic?
40L: Seriously! There’s a dedicated thread here!
What? She and Lu Yuanqiu fought?
Wei Yue gasped. Where did that come from! The rumors were spreading too quickly!
She followed the link in the 40th comment. The striking title that first caught her eye was: “Fighting on the First Day of Military Training? The Grudges and Conflicts Between Wealthy Heiresses!”
Seeing that line of text, Wei Yue felt her vision swim.
What kind of gossip news title is this! Is the poster a media reporter trainee!
The content in this thread was extremely detailed, not only naming her and Lu Yuanqiu but also detailing their identities and backgrounds.
It described everything from their initial enmity at an elementary school banquet to their feuds in middle school, and the “conflict” that occurred just two days into university, all framed as a fight over a man.
Poster: Another famous family in K City is the Lan family of Chengfeng Group. Wei Yue and Lu Yuanqiu have been constantly clashing because of the eldest son of the Lan family—Lan Shangui. Their resentment runs deep, and they unexpectedly met again at K University. With old and new grudges combined, they naturally ignored the setting and started fighting immediately!
This is pure fabrication!
Even though Wei Yue had a mild temperament, seeing this content made a burst of anger rise up.
The events before university were the original owner’s actions, and even if they were taken as true, today’s incident was purely an accident. How was it twisted into a rumor that she and Lu Yuanqiu fought, and over a man, no less!
It was now lunchtime, and the traffic on the BBS forum was extremely high. The replies to this thread had already reached several hundred.143L: Whoa, art really does imitate life. And it’s rich people’s drama! More of this gossip, please!
256L: Lan Shangui’s name sounds familiar. Isn’t he also at K University?
269L: He’s a second-year Finance student here! He just won a national award this year and is the direct senior of these two beauties! Finance department is going to be interesting now.
371L: Hahahaha, I can testify, I was there today! That Wei Yue jumped right off the stairs to hit someone and knocked her unconscious! We kindly wanted to take the person to the clinic, but she wouldn’t let us near! Hahahaha!
The rumors became more and more outrageous. Wei Yue took a deep breath, a rare look of gloom settling on her face.
“This kind of half-truth rumor spreads incredibly fast,” Jiang Yun-juan said softly, seeing Wei Yue’s unpleasant expression while Lu Yuanqiu was still asleep.
“They’re spreading rumors!” Wei Yue said through gritted teeth, but lowered her voice out of consideration for Lu Yuanqiu, who needed rest.
The events before university were plausible given the original owner’s personality, but today’s incident was clearly an accident!
Looking at the comments, especially those claiming to be “on the scene”—were those few boys really being “kind”? They didn’t even try to hide the sordid thoughts in their eyes!
The more Wei Yue thought about it, the angrier she got.
Wearing the mantle of the arrogant villainess, she might rightfully encounter some gossip, but Lu Yuanqiu, the upright female lead, being inexplicably dragged into the controversy, was truly an innocent disaster.
And more importantly—it would be terrible if the female lead grew to dislike her even more because of this!
“This is definitely a rumor. It’s best to resolve it immediately while the controversy is still brewing,” Jiang Yun-juan reminded her.
“Of course!” Wei Yue said. Her first thought was to report it to the counselor, but considering the university’s administrative procedures, by the time the counselor intervened, the story would have probably gone through several versions.
In necessary situations, one must use special means.
Wei Yue immediately pulled out her phone, ready to contact Wei Ling.
Family background must be put to good use now!
Just as she was about to make the call, an uninvited guest suddenly burst into the ward.
“Wei Yue! You’ve gone too far!”
A tall and imposing figure walked in, accompanied by an angry interrogation directed at Wei Yue.
Looking at the man with sweat still on his forehead, the system promptly appeared to report his identity Lan Shangui, Stock No. 1 in the stock-buying novel Night Whispers, and the eldest son of the Lan family in K City.
Wei Yue was already furious. Seeing Lan Shangui’s accusing manner, her anger found a target for release: “What are you doing, Young Master Lan? Didn’t you see there’s a patient resting? Shouting like that is truly intimidating!”
“You…!”
Startled by Wei Yue’s direct retort, Lan Shangui paused and shifted his gaze to Lu Yuanqiu lying on the bed. Seeing her bloodless face, the anger in his eyes transformed into deep distress.
At this point, the system intervened to warn Wei Yue: Host, please note! Your recent words and actions do not conform to the villainess persona. OOC level has risen to 40%!
The original owner harbors affection for Lan Shangui, which is one of the main reasons she targets Lu Yuanqiu.
So, if Lan Shangui decides to scold her again, she can’t even talk back?
Wei Yue took a few deep breaths, closing her eyes in a hint of despair.
As expected, Lan Shangui looked at Lu Yuanqiu with deep emotion for a moment, then shifted his attention back to Wei Yue.
“Wei Yue, did you eat gunpowder?” Lan Shangui was first surprised that Wei Yue had talked back directly, then continued to scold her: “You’re an adult now, why are you still so childish, constantly targeting Yuanqiu!”
“Can’t you be more mature and rational, and accept that there’s no possibility between us!”
Wei Yue: “…”
Brother, stop being so dramatic!
Wei Yue strongly suppressed the urge to retort: “Nothing happened between Lu Yuanqiu and me! The BBS threads are all rumors!”
Jiang Yun-juan, who was nearby, also seemed surprised by the situation and immediately interjected: “It really is a rumor! I was there too! Student Wei and Student Lu accidentally bumped into each other!”
Lan Shangui, however, felt he knew Wei Yue’s character all too well and thought Jiang Yun-juan was another “minion” Wei Yue had brought along. His handsome face was full of impatience: “You don’t need to try and deny it here. Haven’t you harmed Yuanqiu enough already!”
It’s like talking to a brick wall!
Knowing that Lan Shangui’s perception of the original owner was deeply ingrained, trying to explain the situation would take an indeterminate amount of time.
Wei Yue didn’t intend to argue further with Lan Shangui. She prepared to leave the ward and continue calling Wei Ling.
Resolving the BBS issue is far more important.
But as soon as she took a step, Lan Shangui grabbed her: “What, you harm someone and then try to run?”
Wei Yue strongly disliked physical contact from strangers. The moment Lan Shangui’s hand reached out, she wanted to shake him off, but unfortunately, his grip was too strong, painfully clutching her wrist.
“Let go! I have important things to do!”
Wei Yue’s temper completely flared up. From the very beginning, when Lan Shangui falsely accused her, to his relentless pursuit and now his physical aggression, her patience was clearly at its limit.
“After one car accident, your temper has really grown, hasn’t it!” Lan Shangui was a bit surprised by Wei Yue’s outburst, but still didn’t release his grip.
Jiang Yun-juan, seeing the situation, was also clearly taken aback: “Wait a minute! Let’s talk this out!”
“He needs to let go first!”
“You’re not going anywhere!”
The ward erupted into a full-blown argument. Lu Yuanqiu, who was supposedly resting peacefully on the hospital bed, furrowed her fine brows and slowly opened her eyes.
Her vision hadn’t even fully cleared yet, but a booming noise immediately assaulted her ears.
“Wei Yue! Stop playing games! We need to settle this today!”
“Talk if you want, but why are you getting physical!”
Lu Yuanqiu: “…”
Why can’t I even find peace when I faint?
