The reply he sent was more than twice as long as her thank-you message, which made Yang Yuran feel somewhat embarrassed.
Considering that he had truly helped her and that she would need to publish papers in the future, she cunningly insisted on taking him out for a meal to express her gratitude.
All calamities started with her treat.
Two conspicuously attractive people dining together sparked a variety of rumors among the onlookers.
Yang Yuran simply wanted to make a friend and secure a green light for future paper publication, but nobody was interested in her real intention.
When the rumors reached Li Shuo's ears, he became fiercely jealous and strictly forbade her from having much to do with Yin Tianzhao.
Yang Yuran had principles; no matter how much she liked a man, she wouldn't change her stance because of him.
She told Li Shuo frankly that she only considered Yin Tianzhao a friend.
