Chapter 256: Chapter 255 Rumors Chapter 256: Chapter 255 Rumors During the days Gu Huai was overseas for a conference, Qi Yue kept herself busy between the laboratory and the fields.

As graduation neared, everyone was preoccupied with internships, and the dormitory building was increasingly empty. Su Xiaotang had also recently gone out of town for an exhibition.

Song Qiuqiu’s major was agriculture, but she was more interested in the ACG subculture. The job she found for her internship was just to satisfy the department’s requirements; she secretly worked part-time as a game planner, spending most of her time working from home, so she was actually staying in the dormitory during this period.

However, Song Qiuqiu had always liked staying up late, and once she started working, she would be active at night and sleep during the day, completely opposite to normal people’s biological clocks. Therefore, although Qi Yue shared a dorm with her, it felt like they were living in two different worlds, and sometimes they would not see each other for days…
Gradually, everyone began going their separate ways, and the day of parting came closer and closer…
Tomorrow Qi Yue was to go to Field No. 13. She had just finished her work in the lab and was walking through the campus, clad in a white lab coat, amidst the verdant greenery.

On the nearby basketball court, a group of boys was sweating profusely; a few people were scattered across the sports field running, several iconic academic buildings and sculptures were surrounded by students poised to graduate taking photos to preserve the memories, and the flea market upfront was bustling with activity, with discounts growing steeper…
A boy selling items spotted Qi Yue passing by and hurriedly began to enthusiastically pitch, “Tomatoes! Sweeter than first love, hand-grown for three years, robust and flourishing! In a few months, they’ll definitely yield a great harvest! Do you want some? I really can’t take them with me! I’ll sell them to you for cheap!”

Qi Yue glanced at the frail plant with yellowing leaves, and coughed lightly, “Well, no need… I’m also a senior and can’t take it with me… and, I’m in the agriculture department…”
Upon hearing this, the boy immediately wiped off his sweat in embarrassment, “Uh… sorry, sorry for bothering you…”
This was akin to trying to sell newbie village equipment to a max-level master.

After he spoke, the boy glanced at the lab coat Qi Yue was wearing, sized her up for a while, and then suddenly said excitedly, “Ah! Qi… You’re Qi Yue… the top student from the agriculture department… God Xiu’s girlfriend…”
Recently, the news of Qi Yue and Gu Huai getting together had caused quite a sensation, especially after they filmed a promotional video for the school, and almost everyone knew them.

Qi Yue had grown accustomed to everyone’s reactions and responded with a polite smile.

After he spoke, the boy seemed to regret his hastiness and added timidly, “It should… it should still be… God Xiu’s girlfriend, right…?”

What does ‘should still be Gu Huai’s girlfriend’ mean?

That sounded a bit odd.

Qi Yue didn’t quite grasp what the boy meant at that moment…
As she was about to ask, a girl came up to her at that moment, “Classmate! Classmate Qi! Do you remember me?”

“You are…” Qi Yue recognized her face but couldn’t recall who she was.

“Last time you and God Xiu bought my wool yarn! Don’t you remember?” the girl blinked and reminded.

Qi Yue: “Ah! I remember… Hello…”
“That, that… Classmate Qi… Are you alone today…” the girl looked worriedly at Qi Yue, then muttered to herself in a low voice, “Those rumors… They couldn’t possibly be true…”
Upon hearing her murmur, Qi Yue asked with some suspicion, “Rumors… What rumors?”

“Don’t you know? Recently quite a few people have been spreading rumors… saying that you and God Xiu have already broken up!”

“…”
