Chapter 127 Rumors
Chapter 127 Rumors
Nanjing University welcomed the winter break. This time, Gu Ai told Ning Yi that her uncle was going back to China to take care of some things and would need to make a few trips. He could pick Ning Yi up for the break and take her home. Gu Ai then gave Ning Yi her uncle's contact information.
Ning Yi didn't even know what her uncle looked like. Her uncle's name was Ye Huaisheng. After they exchanged contact information, he took the initiative to greet Ning Yi.
Ye Huaisheng: Hello, little niece, I'm your uncle, my name is Ye Huaisheng.
Ningyi: Hello Uncle, I am Ningyi
Ye Huaisheng: You probably don't remember me much, right? The last time I saw you was when you were little, on your tenth birthday.
Ye Huaisheng: But my sister showed me your photos, and you've really grown up and become even more beautiful. I'll send you the license plate number the day after tomorrow. Which gate from Nanjing University is convenient for you to exit from?
Ye Huaisheng: After I park the car, I'll come to your dorm to help you move your luggage.
Ning Yi: No need, no need. I only have one suitcase and one backpack, nothing much. It's already too much trouble for you, Uncle, to make the trip.
Ye Huaisheng: No need to be so formal. I'm still your uncle, it's only right.
I heard that although Ye Huaisheng doesn't come back to China often, he still calls Gu Ai and the others, as well as his grandmother, when he has time.
It was also mentioned that when Ningyi was abroad with her grandmother, her uncle had visited her once, but unfortunately Ningyi was away performing, and her uncle seemed to be always very busy with work, so he didn't stay there for long before leaving.
My uncle's family relationships are somewhat complicated. His grandfather had five children and three wives, making the family quite large, but there are also undercurrents of tension behind the scenes.
……
On the day of the holiday, Ye Huaisheng arrived a little early, and Ning Yi quickly packed her luggage and went downstairs.
When Ning Yi just stepped out of the school gate, there were already quite a few people there.
Ning Yi was carrying her suitcase and walking forward when a boy carrying something bumped into her. Ning Yi lost her grip on the suitcase, and it fell to the ground.
Ning Yi frowned and was about to bend down to pick it up when a tall figure appeared in front of her. The cuffs of a well-tailored suit jacket came into Ning Yi's view. She looked up at him and saw that he had already helped her lift the suitcase up.
"Xiaoyi, let me do it," the man's steady and powerful voice rang out, carrying a hint of warmth.
Ning Yi looked somewhat surprised.
"I am your uncle, Ye Huaisheng," Ye Huaisheng said with a smile.
She opened her mouth in surprise. The man in front of her was wearing a custom-made suit, was tall and muscular, and had a beard around his chin, making him look somewhat like a foreigner.
Ningyi replied, "Hello, Uncle."
Ye Huaisheng pulled his suitcase and led Ning Yi toward the car.
"Isn't Xiao Yi afraid that I'm a bad guy? She just came with me right away," Ye Huaisheng said to Ning Yi beside him.
Ning Yi paused for a moment, then said, "Yes... I didn't suspect anything at all."
She looked up at him and said slowly, "You don't look like a bad person."
Ye Huaisheng suddenly grabbed Ning Yi's arm and pulled her inside. A cart full of things was suddenly pushed over from the side, as he was afraid of bumping into Ning Yi.
After watching the car pass by, Ye Huaisheng said to Ning Yi, "Get in the car first, don't catch a cold. I won't be able to explain myself when I get back."
Then Ye Huaisheng put the box in the trunk, and Ning Yi got into the car.
Two girls nearby were watching all of this. One of them put down her phone, which she had just raised, and looked at Fang Wenyi beside her: "Is this Ningyi's boyfriend?"
Fang Wenyi narrowed her eyes and then said, "I think so. I heard her say that her boyfriend is a few years older than her."
The girl next to her looked at the photo on her phone and said, "She's probably older than a few years old, more like a teenager."
The girl suddenly thought of something, then raised an eyebrow and said, "What if I post this photo on the school forum, so everyone can see that their goddess has found an older man as her boyfriend..."
Fang Wenyi frowned, as if she wanted to say something, but then remained silent.
After Ye Huaisheng got into the car, he took a bag from under the seat and handed it to Ning Yi: "Xiao Yi, this is a gift."
Ning Yi said somewhat shyly, "Thank you, Uncle."
"Open it and take a look," Ye Huaisheng said again.
Ning Yi opened the bag, and inside was a box. She opened the box and found a large gold bracelet inside.
Ning Yi's eyes widened involuntarily, and she suddenly felt a heavy weight in her hands.
This bracelet is wide and large, with exquisite patterns engraved on it, and it even sparkles at first glance.
If someone wore this out, you can imagine how flashy it would be.
"Do you like it?" Ye Huaisheng asked.
Ning Yi quickly said, "It's very beautiful, I like it very much, Uncle, you've gone to so much trouble."
At this moment, Gu Ai called Ye Huaisheng via video to ask if he had picked up Ning Yi. Ye Huaisheng then pointed the camera at Ning Yi, and Gu Ai breathed a sigh of relief after seeing her.
They exchanged a few more words, and then Ye Huaisheng drove off.
When they got home, Gu Ai and Ning Jian were waiting for them at the door.
After they went inside, Ning Yi saw a mixed-race little boy stand up from the sofa.
"Hello, sister, I'm Chloe, my Chinese name is Ye... Xiao," the little boy said to her in broken Chinese.
Ning Yi smiled and replied, "Hello, my name is Ning Yi, how old are you?"
Ye Xiao replied, "I am seven years old."
"In Chinese," Ye Huaisheng suddenly said.
Ye Xiao thought for a moment and then said, "I'm... seven years old this year."
Then Gu Ai quickly invited everyone to sit down and have some snacks and chat together.
"Looks like this year's Chinese New Year is going to be lively again," Gu Ai said with a smile.
……
After dinner, Ning Yi returned to her room and took out her phone. Before that, she had been chatting and playing games with Ye Xiao downstairs.
She saw a screenshot of a post from the school forum that her roommates had shared in their group chat.
People in the group are tagging Ningyi, asking her what's going on, whether it's true or false, or if someone is maliciously spreading rumors.
Ning Yi clicked on the picture, and wasn't this a candid photo of her and her uncle?
It was the photo of Ye Huaisheng pulling her along, and the photo of the two of them chatting and laughing while he helped her with her suitcase.
The post said: Ningyi, the girl who became famous for playing the violin, has a boyfriend who is more than ten years older than her. No wonder she doesn't like the younger boys at school; it seems she doesn't have enough money in her pocket.
The following are 99 replies.
A netizen commented: Really? Holy crap? They look so far apart in age!
One netizen commented: "This guy looks to be in his thirties or forties, with a huge beard. It's hard to imagine him being with a girl like Ning Yi. He must be really rich."
A netizen commented: "So Ning Yi likes older men. All you young boys at school, stop scrambling to get close, haha. Are you as rich as her older men? Maybe your goddess isn't innocent anymore."
……
Ning Yi couldn't help but grip her phone tightly.
She returned to the dorm group chat and replied: "This picture is of my uncle, not my boyfriend."
Ningyi had previously told them that her boyfriend was several years older than her and already working.
