I Swapped Bodies With a Female Celebrity - Chapter 38

But that thought was quickly dismissed.

After all, creating viruses is illegal.

Muttering to herself, “Prosperity, democracy, civility, harmony…” Qin Yunxuan decided to start with her classmates.

First, she would conquer the market at Yun Jing University, then gradually expand outward!

As for getting a job…

Qin Yunxuan declared she would never work for someone else in this lifetime!

After finally transmigrating to a parallel world, was she really going to let herself be bossed around again? No way!

She refused to be controlled anymore.

“I should go talk to Professor Zhao and see if he can help!” Qin Yunxuan thought to herself.

Though Professor Zhao was known as a terror, Qin Yunxuan had done her research—the man had real expertise!

He would definitely recognize just how incredible her antivirus software was!

Meanwhile, in the boys’ dorm, Liu Sen suddenly shouted while browsing online, “Holy sht!”*

Chen Quan, who had been drinking water, was so startled that he choked, sending water straight up his nose.

“Cough, cough, cough!” He bent over, pounding his chest. “Dude, Liu Sen, did you see a ghost or something?”

Liu Sen looked utterly stunned. “This is way scarier than seeing a ghost. You guys won’t believe this.”

“What is it?” Zhou Lin leaned in curiously.

Three heads huddled together, staring at a post on the university forum.

“…Hiss!”

After reading the entire post, their eyes widened in shock.

“The person they’re talking about… is Qin Lang?”

“There’s photo evidence below—how could it be fake? They say Chen Xiyuan got rejected, but… by Qin Lang?!”

“No wonder Qin Lang’s been acting different lately. Our guess was right—he’s left the single life behind and fallen for someone!”

“But wait, the post says he’s two-timing, that he’s a scumbag. Is that really him?”

“Do you think Qin Lang is like that?”

“No way! We’ve been brothers for three years!”

“Then there’s only one explanation—Qin Lang felt he couldn’t make Chen Xiyuan happy, so he let her go this way! Deep down, he still loves her!”

Chen Quan’s words made the other two nod solemnly.

When a good guy feels unworthy of a girl, he doesn’t cling desperately—he steps back quietly, gathers his strength, and waits for the day he can stand tall before her.

Thinking this, the three felt a pang of sympathy for Qin Lang.

Falling for someone out of your league was painful.

They called themselves his brothers, yet they hadn’t noticed anything happening in his life?

Seeing the torrent of curses directed at Qin Lang in the comments, their hearts ached.

Even if Qin Lang had done all this for Chen Xiyuan’s sake, as his friends, they couldn’t just let him be misunderstood like this!

“We didn’t know before, but now that we do… what should we do?”

“Let’s not bring it up with Qin Lang. No need to reopen old wounds.”

“Agreed. But these online comments are unbearable. Should we defend him?”

“That’s a good idea. Some things Qin Lang can’t say himself—so we’ll say them for him!”

“Alright, let’s do it!”

…..

Soon, a new reply appeared under the original post, claiming to be from an “insider.”

“I know the so-called ‘scumbag’ in this post—he’s my brother. But there are things outsiders don’t understand, so as his friend, I need to set the record straight!”

“My brother isn’t two-timing. In fact, Chen Xiyuan is the only one in his heart. He’s told us many times that having her as his girlfriend was his greatest happiness. But…”

“Chen Xiyuan didn’t want their relationship public. Let’s be real—she’s the campus belle, and my brother’s just an ordinary guy. How could a toad ever hope to eat swan meat?”

“As for the cafeteria rejection—do you really think my brother turned her down? No! It was Chen Xiyuan who dumped him! My brother had no choice but to take the blame and play the villain!”

“Think about it—if you had a girlfriend like Chen Xiyuan, would you ever break up with her or cheat? Unless you’ve got water in your brain, no one would do that!”

“Lastly, Chen Xiyuan—you might be the campus queen, adored by everyone, but what you did to my brother is just too cruel!”

After typing this out, Chen Quan smirked. “So? How’s my writing?”

“Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant! But… isn’t this a little too exaggerated?”

“You don’t get it. Quan’s just adding some artistic flair. The core truth is there—no big deal!”

What a twist!

Just as netizens were cursing Qin Lang and calling for his personal info to be exposed, this reply appeared.

After the initial frenzy, many read Chen Quan’s post and began doubting.

Wait—Chen Xiyuan was Yun Jing University’s top beauty. If a guy had her as his girlfriend, wouldn’t he be over the moon? Why would he ever cheat?

And in the photos, the guy looked troubled, like he was carrying some burden. Could it be… the truth wasn’t what the original post claimed?

Was the reply the real story?

The crowd was baffled. Which side was telling the truth?

Only the two people involved could clear this up now.

“Xixi, have you seen the posts online?” Chen Xiyuan’s roommate asked hesitantly. “You… you’re not actually involved with that guy, are you?”

Chen Xiyuan’s eyes widened—she had just seen the reply.

“No way! How could I have anything to do with that peeping creep?” she hissed through gritted teeth. “Who’s spreading these rumors? This is infuriating!”

“Should we clarify things?” someone suggested.

Chen Xiyuan hesitated. If she spoke up now, it wouldn’t help—it’d just make her look guilty, like she was protesting too much.

“I messed up. Why did I even make that post? Now I’m stuck!”

Frowning, she realized the damage was done—everyone now thought she and that guy were dating.

This was a disaster.
