"Rumors?"
Su Qi became interested.
"What rumors?"
"There are rumors about you. People say you skip classes, smoke, drink, get into fights, and had girls who had an abortion for you. Are all these true?"
When Su Qi heard this, he first laughed mockingly then said, "Oh, these. I was wondering what sort of rumors!"
"Are these rumors true?"
"Half-truths."
"Half-truths?"
That got me confused. I did not understand what he meant.
"It's either real or fake. What do you mean, half-truths?"
"Sometimes, what you see with your eyes might not be true. What you hear with your ears might not be true either. For example, I smoke, I drink, and I get into fights. These are all true. But the rumor about the girl who went for an abortion—the truth is that I did accompany her to get an abortion, but I wasn't the one who got her pregnant."
"Who did it then?"
