Financial freedom starts with the pursuit of a cool female doctor

Chapter 164 Don’t spread rumors if you don’t believe them
As soon as he said those words, Han Qi realized he had said the wrong thing.

Although it is the school's anniversary, the school gates are open to alumni, and the badminton club does not exclude non-students from participating in the anniversary activities.

But it's quite intriguing that you, Han Qi, a freshman female student, are seen with a man from outside the school, arm in arm and in a close relationship with him.

Logically speaking, a college student should be in contact with roommates, classmates in the same major, and teachers most often every day.

Second on the list are people from outside the school.

Many students spend four years in college without ever leaving campus, so apart from delivery drivers, they have hardly ever interacted with anyone outside of school.

Among the group of referees, one nervously swallowed, his mind racing for a long time before he slowly spoke:
“My friend sent me a video and said he saw a female student from our school get into a Maybach with a child.”

"Really? Let's watch the video?"

Without saying a word, the person opened WeChat and showed the video to others.

"He told me that he originally intended to film the Maybach parked on the side of the road, but he ended up filming this scene instead."

"I was wondering why that guy looked so familiar; turns out he appeared in a video before."

The girl in the video is clearly recognizable as Han Qi from behind, and she is holding the hand of a little girl, who is her younger sister Han Sisi.

The two jogged up to Zhuo Tong and chatted happily, laughing and talking.

A moment later, the three of them got into a Maybach. Since no one went to the driver's seat, it seemed that they had hired a chauffeur.

"At first I thought it was just someone who looked like Han Qi, but I didn't expect it to be her."

"Holy crap, it really is her? Isn't that little girl next to her the sister she mentioned the other day?"

Of the people present, not everyone saw Han Qi's sister that day, but some recognized her.

All the clues point to one conclusion, a somewhat dark and cruel guess.

"Do you think it's possible..."

The man choked up as he tried to speak.

Before he could even speak, Zhuo Tong had already boldly said to the two sophomore girls:
“I also graduated from Shenzhen University, and I was in the same major as Han Qi, but I graduated four years ago.”

"We met by chance at the gym, chatted and found that we had similar interests and compatible personalities, so we often hang out together."

Han Qi suddenly thought of something, blushed, and then quietly left.

After Zhuo Tong watched her leave, he inadvertently noticed the crowd pointing and whispering in their direction, and then he devised a scheme.

He pointed to the group of referees who had been whispering and making wild guesses:

"Everyone in the badminton club knows that Han Qi is an outgoing and generous girl; who wouldn't like her?"

"Besides, she herself said that she has no plans to be in a relationship. Please don't let the rumors harm Han Qi."

After saying that, Zhuo Tong put on a sincere and earnest expression, as if pleading with the two of them not to make wild guesses about their relationship like they had before.

They were already attracted to Zhuo Tong's looks, so their hearts softened immediately, and they nodded repeatedly:

"Sorry, senior, we were just talking nonsense. Please don't take it to heart, junior."

"It's alright. Did you have fun at the school anniversary celebration?"

"Except for losing to my senior in the final, I'm pretty happy."

The two looked at Zhuo Tong with somewhat resentful eyes.

Having finally decided that I was good at badminton, I mustered up the courage to participate in the badminton club's activities. Besides, I'd heard that the top players in the badminton club wouldn't participate, so I figured I was a shoo-in for the championship, right?
As a result, both his team and Zhuo Tong's team went on a winning streak to reach the finals, but the opponent always crushed them 11-0 without any suspense.

The closer we get to the finals, the more suffocating and desperate we feel.

As a result, even when Zhuo Tong had already secured the victory, he didn't know how to go easy on his junior female students and showed no mercy to them.

But then she thought that Zhuo Tong and Han Qi weren't a couple, so wouldn't she have a chance to pursue him?
Then their gazes changed from resentment to passion.

Just then, Han Qi rushed back, carrying a lot of things in his hands:

"Senior sisters, here are the medals and prizes for the second prize in this competition. Thank you for your enthusiastic participation. I hope we can get along well in the badminton club in the future."

After speaking, he bowed deeply, his attitude sincere and earnest.

Seeing that the person in question had returned, the two felt embarrassed to continue arguing and could only wave goodbye.

"Thank you, junior. We'll be going now to see if there are any other events on campus."

"Take care, seniors."

After the two had walked away, Han Qi wiped non-existent sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand:

"Finally, we've changed the subject. Thank you for your hard work. I really don't understand why some people like to overthink things."

"Because they can't get it or understand it, they can only guess."

Although Han Qi had lowered his guard, Zhuo Tong remained serious.

He knew very well that, given the current trend of college students being gossipy and the speed at which information spreads through the internet, this was a natural consequence.

A rumor can spread rapidly in a short period of time and gradually become out of control.

To truly prevent this from happening, we must nip it in the bud, which is why he tried to drag the badminton team into it.

"Is...is what he said true?"

"I don't know either. Brother Zhao knows him best, but Brother Zhao isn't here right now."

"Han Qi's reaction doesn't seem like she's lying. That guy is probably just a senior from our school."

"Wow, such a young senior driving a Maybach? I knew choosing Shenzhen University was the right decision, his future is bright!"

As they had been chatting earlier, the referees gradually veered off-topic, successfully diverting their attention.

Furthermore, since they themselves are unwilling to believe that speculation, they have all tacitly chosen to remain silent and not mention it.

In addition to the second-place medal, Han Qi also brought along all the items that belonged to the two of them.

"This is the gold medal for the overall first place... This is the gold medal for winning all three matches... These are the prizes for the first place winner in each match..."

She hung all the medals around Zhuo Tong's neck at once, and Zhuo Tong even lowered his head to make it easier for her to hang them on.

Aside from medals, the prizes are mostly original merchandise created by the badminton club itself, such as badminton-themed badges and acrylic standees.

And a custom-made badminton shuttlecock themed around the university's anniversary, with the slogan "I love Shenzhen University" written on it.

"Ta-da! This is the Victory Commemorative Medal I told you about before."

This medal is completely different in style from the previous ones; it's quite obvious that it was designed by a girl.
