Laughing My Ass Off, the Protagonist's Childhood Sweetheart Is Running Away!

"Fuck! I apologize for what I said earlier. I never imagined Xiao Fan was the shameless one!"

"Seriously? Isn't Xiao Fan some kind of pedophile?"

"Hey, as a rich second-generation heir, Xiao Fan has never even dated a girlfriend. Could he really be one?"

"I think he might be gay too, using this engagement to hide his sexual orientation!"

"The tables have turned! Xiao Fan is a disgusting pervert. I recommend physically castrating him!"

"What pedophile? Get the hell out of here!"

In an instant, the internet erupted with a wave of reversed insults. Xiao Fan, once regarded as heaven's favored son, had become the vile pedophile in everyone's eyes!

At this time, the sun was setting westward. The lingering glow of the sunset spilled across the earth like molten gold. Inside a top-tier private room at Nine Dragons Hospital, Suzhou's most luxurious private hospital serving the wealthy...

Xiao Fan, whose complexion had improved somewhat, lay on the hospital bed. Looking at Xiao Ling'er beside him, who was watching him with concern, a peaceful smile appeared on his face as he spoke softly.

"Don't worry, Ling'er. The doctor said they're just some internal injuries. A few days of rest will be enough. Besides, the Su Household isn't doing so well right now either."

At that thought, a sharp glint flashed through Xiao Fan's eyes, and the corners of his lips curled upward slightly. Upon hearing this, the concern on Xiao Ling'er's face turned into an appreciative smile.

Indeed, the Su Household was now being condemned by everyone. Even its stock price had begun to suffer. As more and more dirt came out later on, it would become even harder for the Su Household to salvage its image.

"This move of mine not only brought Xiao Group back into the public eye, but also created a wave of publicity. Many goods that had been piling up in the warehouses have already been sold, and the cash flow crisis has been eased!"

Xiao Fan took a sip of the plain water by his bedside. The pride on his face grew ever more obvious as he could not stop showing off smugly.

One arrow, three birds. That was Xiao Fan for you. Who would dare say he had squandered his talents in his youth now?!

Not to mention that this matter had also improved his relationship with Ling'er. Once Xiao Ling'er received support from the main family, what could the Su Household possibly amount to?!

"Bad news! Bad news! Young Master Xiao, something huge has happened!" Just then, the ward door was flung open, and a man rushed inside. Xiao Fan frowned sharply and looked over, only to discover that it was his secretary, Leng Yu.

Seeing the man's panicked state, he immediately barked in displeasure, "What are you panicking for? Even if the sky falls, I'll hold it up!"

As he spoke, a trace of dissatisfaction flashed through his eyes. Didn't this guy know he was having a pleasant chat with Ling'er?!

"The Su... Su... Su Household has made its move! Young Master Xiao, look!" Secretary Leng Yu did not notice this at all. Panting heavily, he rushed forward in utter urgency and stuffed his phone into Xiao Fan's hand.

What the hell?

The Su Household has made its move!

Leng Yu's reckless behavior made Xiao Fan frown deeply. Then his gaze fell upon the phone, where countless Douhai trending searches filled his vision...

[The Struggle of a Young Girl: The Internet Storm Caused by a Broken Engagement!]

[Ten Billion Couldn't Buy Off a Marriage Contract?]

[No Martial Virtue: Failed Sneak Attack, Beaten Instead? If Xiao Fan Is Human, I'll Eat Shit!]

Every trending topic was unbearably glaring, like nails driven straight into Xiao Fan's heart. His whole body jolted as he instinctively reached up to clutch his wildly pounding heart, staring at everything before him in disbelief.

He quickly scrolled through the screen, but the trending list was still completely dominated by them!

Xiao Ling'er, standing beside him, felt her heart sink as well. She was filled with shock, never having expected the Su Household's response to be so swift.

"Young Master Xiao, look at those comments!"

At that moment, the utterly flustered Leng Yu spoke anxiously. He stood there fidgeting uneasily. Upon hearing him, Xiao Fan's already furrowed brow tightened even further.

With an incomparably grim expression, he opened the comments under the most discussed video. When he looked closely, he found nothing but curses directed at him...

Pedophile?

Physical castration!

Gay?

In an instant, those deeply humiliating words flooded Xiao Fan's eyes. Boundless fury surged in his heart, veins bulging on his hands as he gripped the phone tightly. He let out low growls and swept his vicious gaze across the room. "Quick! Spend money, hire trolls, hire bloggers!"

"Even if we have to throw money at it, bury these comments! I want those trending searches gone!"

Those unbearable comments were simply an insult to him. How could he possibly be a pedophile, much less gay? With all that rage unable to find an outlet, he only felt an unbearable heaviness in his chest.

Yet the only response he received was Leng Yu lowering his head in silence. In that instant, Xiao Fan felt even worse and could not stop himself from coughing twice...

Xiao Ling'er beside him had seen those comments as well, and her brows furrowed slightly. This was far too absurd.

Yet as she watched Xiao Fan suddenly erupt in towering fury and react so intensely, her eyelids twitched, and she could not help but begin to speculate...

Brother Xiao Fan is already so old, yet he really has never dated any girlfriends. He even keeps away from women. Could he really be a pedophile?!

A normal rich second-generation heir might not be as immersed in women as Su Bai of the Su Household, but he would at least have a few women around him.

But Xiao Fan?

In an instant, Xiao Ling'er's body stiffened. An indescribable strange look entered her eyes as she looked at Xiao Fan. After pursing her lips and thinking for a moment, she unconsciously took half a step back.

That sudden movement was immediately noticed by Xiao Fan. His face was ashen, and he was coughing violently. He raised his head in disbelief and looked toward Xiao Ling'er.

Ling'er, why are you avoiding me? Don't you believe me?!

Faced with such a wounded look in his eyes, Xiao Ling'er did not know what to do for a moment.

But when she thought of those glaring comments and Xiao Fan's earlier reaction, the unease in her heart remained impossible to suppress. She could only force out a smile and say softly, "No, I'm just tired from standing. I want to sit down."

Then, with light steps, she walked to the spot in the room farthest from Xiao Fan and sat down peacefully. That sudden distance was like the final straw crushing Xiao Fan's heart.

"Pfft!"

In an instant, Su Bai felt his vision blur, a sharp, stabbing pain erupting in his chest. His face flushed a deep crimson, and as his blood surged in reverse, he could not stop himself from spewing a mouthful of blood.

Blood splattered everywhere, scattering across the floor as he collapsed weakly onto the hospital bed, his face pale as paper...

"Doctor! Where's the doctor?! Someone's coughing up blood! Get a doctor here, now!"

This sudden scene left Leng Yu dumbfounded. He shouted in panic, while Xiao Ling'er, seated in the corner, was filled with hesitation and conflict...
