Michelle's face was full of grievances, but what could she do?
The malicious glares from everyone in the classroom made Michelle feel ashamed and embarrassed.
She could sense people talking about her behind her back.
Michelle stomped her foot lightly and left the classroom. She couldn't bear to stay here any longer.
She just wanted to go to the playground and find a quiet place to stay for a while, and then come back after class...
After class, she wouldn't have to listen to these piercing gossips anymore.
Just as Michelle reached the doorway, she saw Lynlo coming back, still with that smile on his face, looking at her with a smirk.
"Hmph!"
Michelle didn't show any kindness to Lynlo. She had just thought about biting him hard, but now that she saw him, she felt timid again.
In her mind, she swore that she would never smile at Lynlo again, or anyone else for that matter!
Lynlo, you commoner, regret not being able to see my beautiful and adorable smile again!
Hmph!
Thinking this made her feel satisfied. Michelle raised her chin, stomped her foot, and walked away forcefully.
Lynlo couldn't help but chuckle. He found the angry Michelle quite cute.
Could it be that he was a masochist, only wanting to be stared at by others?
No, no, as a normal teenager with normal thoughts, he definitely couldn't have any strange fetishes~
Lynlo walked into the classroom, and the gossipy whispers could be heard through the classroom windows due to the wind.
"I told you, didn't I? Look, Michelle is feeling guilty~"
"Yeah, she wanted to treat us too. I think she wanted to shut us up, but I don't care about those two desserts!"
"The nouveau riche are just nouveau riche, they made their money through business." A girl with noble blood said sarcastically, "We should understand that~ After all, their family is not like a true noble family (referring to her own small baron family) with land (referring to a desolate village) to support them~ They have to do business. In business, there is profit and loss. They may appear glamorous, but they don't spend much money on a regular basis~ Buying a few fake goods to show off is normal, after all, they are not necessities of life."
This seemed like a defense of Michelle, but it was actually acidic.
"That's right, Michelle seems to want revenge on our best friend Lynlo! She's angry and embarrassed after being exposed by a commoner! Let's protect our best friend Lynlo!"
Some boys were discussing in low voices, the same embarrassing trio from earlier: "Damn it!! Next time, we should also touch the Miss's skirt like Lynlo!"
Upon entering the classroom, Lynlo felt the suffocating atmosphere. He sighed helplessly and said, "You guys, focus on studying and stop talking about useless things. So what if Michelle bought fake goods? It's not like she intentionally bought them. The Rockefeller family did indeed buy their title with money, and business does have its ups and downs, but they are not just transient merchants. The family has numerous industries. In terms of sitting on mountains of wealth, is there any family in the aristocracy wealthier than the Abdulgu guild? They can spend money to build a non-profitable aerial garden. But in terms of total assets in the Imperial Capital, the Abdulgu guild is only ranked third, with the Rockefeller trading company being number one."
Lynlo spread his hands helplessly. "So, you guys are simply foolish and naive, sometimes quite naive. Does it mean that the richest family in the entire Imperial Capital will collapse just because the daughter bought one fake item?"
After being countered by Lynlo in this manner, the girls were suddenly speechless.
Lynlo turned to the boys again –
"And as for those who want to lift skirts, let me inform you solemnly, I'm not touching the skirts, I'm appraising magical tools~ In the moment I touch them, I can sense the fabric, material, and weight through my physical, auditory, olfactory, gustatory, and tactile senses – all five senses~ This is quite a technical feat~"
After saying this, Lynlo sat down on his seat, crossed his legs, and acted like a lord~
"So, what you guys should do is to study hard and change your own destiny, not gossiping about Michelle like this. How could the Rockefeller family be affected by your acid remarks?"Lynlo left them speechless, and then streams of grievances started drifting towards Lynlo.
- "Collected grievances from Gossip Girl A."
- "Collected grievances from Gossip Girl B."
...
- "Collected grievances x3 from the Simp Trio."
Although these grievances are nothing compared to Miss Michelle's grade A grievances...
But it's better than nothing~
