Ning Mufeng subtly tugged at the corner of his mouth, eventually retracting his hand.
Probably due to discomfort in the neck resting against the seat and the tendency to lean when the car turned, Ruan Qing slept somewhat uneasily.
After the driver made a right-angle turn, Ruan Qing directly slumped onto Ning Mufeng's shoulder.
Ning Mufeng stiffened, and his heart trembled slightly.
He watched the person leaning on his shoulder, not daring to move, afraid that any slight movement would wake the person up.
The rigid posture resembled that of a naive youth who had never been in contact with others, completely different from his appearance at 'Huayue' moments ago.
It was an unconscious move on the part of the young, and the bodyguard didn't know what to say. He just stared at Ning Mufeng, ready to prevent any inappropriate actions.
The car quickly arrived at Hengming University.
However, Ning Mufeng instructed the driver to keep going.
The fare was metered, and the driver didn't object, simply driving past Hengming University.
The bodyguard didn't comment either. After all, it wouldn't be convenient to follow them back to the school. Who knew what might happen.
It was better to continue sitting in the car, at least keeping an eye on the two.
Initially, the bodyguard thought the young man would wake up after a two or three-hour nap, but unexpectedly, Ruan Qing slept until dawn.
Even the driver struggled to hold on until Ruan Qing woke up.
It was not early, almost seven in the morning.
There were classes today, and after Ruan Qing woke up, the driver breathed a sigh of relief and directly dropped the three of them off at the entrance of Hengming University.
This time, the bodyguard didn't say anything and simply left.
Ruan Qing didn't have a dorm room at the university, but going straight to class in this state wasn't appropriate either. After all, he had rested at Chu Yi's place last night and hadn't even changed his clothes.
Ning Mufeng looked at Ruan Qing and suggested, "There's definitely not enough time for you to go back and change clothes now. How about going to my place?"
"I'll have someone send a set of clothes over."
Ruan Qing hesitated for a moment but ultimately nodded.
Ning Mufeng's dormitory was more like a high-end apartment—three rooms and one living room, but he was the only occupant.
There were also new toiletries available.
Ruan Qing quickly freshened up, even taking a quick shower, and changed into the clothes sent by Ning Mufeng.
The size was just right, fitting better than the clothes Ruan Qing originally had.
Coincidentally, it was also a white shirt paired with casual pants, giving off a similar vibe to Ning Mufeng.
If they stood together, it looked somewhat like... a couple's outfit.
Ruan Qing lowered his head and softly said, "Thank you."
After saying that, Ruan Qing left directly.
Ning Mufeng didn't stop him, knowing they would meet again in class shortly.
In a good mood, Ning Mufeng entered the bathroom, then glanced at the toothpaste, toothbrush, and slightly damp towel that didn't belong to him.
Ning Mufeng picked up the towel and smelled it, as if there were faint traces of orchid fragrance lingering on it.
Even the scent of the soap couldn't completely mask it.
Involuntarily, images of the towel wiping over the young man's body flashed in Ning Mufeng's mind, causing his heart to tremble slightly, and his grip on the towel tightened subconsciously.
Ning Mufeng spent over half an hour in the bathroom and came out. Now, there were less than five minutes left until the class started.
He washed his hands, picked up the book on the table, and quickly walked towards the direction of the classroom.
However, before reaching the classroom, he noticed several people whispering in the corridor.
Some even looked surprised and disbelieving when they saw him.
Their gazes stopped the moment they noticed him, and the discussions ceased.
Ning Mufeng casually stopped a fellow student, speaking gently, "Hello, may I ask what you guys are talking about?"
The stopped student hesitated for a moment, then stammered, "...Just go check the school forum, and you'll know."
Ning Mufeng took out his phone directly, and there was a post on the school forum's homepage.
[Shocking!!! Didn't expect we have such talented students at Hengming University!!!]
After clicking in, the gentle and indifferent smile on Ning Mufeng's face disappeared instantly.
Because the post contained numerous videos, all of them were unsightly.
They were about... Wang Qing.
There were videos of him working at 'Huayue,' with Chu Yi, with his younger uncle, and even with himself.
Ning Mufeng clicked on the videos one by one. Although none of the videos showed undressing or any explicit content, anyone with discerning eyes could anticipate what would happen next.
Even what others imagined was more excessive than the actual situation.
Such as his.
Clearly, it was just a bite on the neck and a touch, but the video portrayed an ambiguous scene, as if something inappropriate was about to happen between them.
When was it recorded?!
Clearly, that place shouldn't have had any surveillance.
But it was useless to investigate now.
Not only were there filthy comments flashing on the videos, but the post had also built up a towering structure of obscene remarks.
[Oh my god, I never thought Wang Qing would be such a person. No wonder he always skips morning classes; turns out he's 'busy' at night.]
[No wonder even Professor Chu doesn't question him for missing so many classes. So, the two of them have this kind of relationship. Tut tut, Wang Qing is really something; even the Professor can be his client.]
[What about Professor Chu? Haven't you seen that Ning Mufeng and his little uncle are also his clients? I really never expected this!]
[Talking about others being dirty while secretly longing for the same, I truly didn't expect Ning Mufeng to be this kind of person. City folks really know how to play.]
[Talking about Wang Qing being beautiful, doing this job is really not a waste. He's driving me crazy; If I secretly went to watch him; he probably won't notice, right?]
[If you want something to happen with him, do you still need to go to a bar? Just stop him and give him money directly. Anyway, people in this line of work don't care about the location.]
[In this situation, he'll definitely be expelled. If you want to do something, you probably have to go to the bar.]
Ning Mufeng's face immediately darkened.
He directly called the forum moderator, intending to request the deletion of the post.
However, just as the call connected, there was a commotion downstairs.
It seemed like people were... looking at the rooftop of this building?
Someone... jumping off?
Ning Mufeng's heart skipped a beat. Without hesitation, he took big strides towards the rooftop, ignoring the phone call that had just connected.
Sure enough, the door to the rooftop was already open.
At the edge of the rooftop, there was a person sitting on the railing.
The clothes were extremely familiar to Ning Mufeng; they were the ones he personally selected for the young man.
