Second pregnancy, sixth child: The beloved mom's disguise has been exposed again.

Chapter 173 The Flower of the Department Has Fallen, Miao Yuliu's Words Have Faded

Ning Yao knew that her roommate wouldn't believe the story of the deep bond between mother and son.

If she hadn't known her relationship with Ning Moran, she wouldn't have believed that she, in her early twenties, would have an eighteen-year-old son.

"I'm a little sleepy, I'm going upstairs to sleep now. You guys do as you please, goodnight."

Ning Yao grabbed her phone and climbed onto her bed, no longer wanting to chatter with her roommate.

Cui Mengmeng and Xin Yujue wanted to ask Ning Yao about Ning Moran, but Ning Yao clearly didn't want to talk to them anymore.

The two had no choice but to give up and continue with what they were doing.

After Ning Yao climbed into bed, she took out her phone and quickly typed a message for her son.

Biological laboratory.

Ning Moran was conducting an experiment, his slender fingers encased in white lab gloves. He held a slide in his hand, examining it through a microscope with one eye.

Ning Moran's phone suddenly vibrated. His assistant, who was beside him, helped him open the message and considerately held the screen up to his face.

The assistant had never done anything like this before and was not used to it at first.

All of this was learned in the last month. Whenever Ning Moran was doing experiments, he would pay attention to the messages on his phone. Whenever a message came from his "beloved mommy," he would ask his assistant to pass it on to him immediately.

Ordinary people must concentrate fully when conducting experiments, otherwise it is easy to make mistakes, but multitasking is child's play for geniuses.

Ning Moran casually glanced at the WeChat chat box.

My dearest Mommy: [Ranran, have I caused you any trouble? Now netizens are misunderstanding and thinking you have a girlfriend...]

Ning Moran raised an eyebrow, and her assistant immediately understood, bringing the phone to Ning Moran's lips and thoughtfully pressing the voice input button.

"Mom, you can focus on your studies at school. Don't worry about these trivial matters; I'll take care of them."

After receiving the message, Ning Yao finally relaxed and sent her son a final message before going to bed.

My dearest Mommy: [My good son, you must promise Mommy that if you ever get a girlfriend, you'll tell me first. Otherwise, if everyone knows my son has a girlfriend and I, as his mother, know nothing, it will be very embarrassing.]

My dearest Mommy: Goodnight, Ranran.

When Ning Moran saw the message in the lab, she couldn't help but smile, her thin lips curving into a beautiful arc.

The assistant was stunned. It was the first time he had ever seen Dr. Ning smile so brightly. If the women outside saw this, they would be so infatuated that they would faint on the spot.

At the Communication University forum, Ning Yao gave a very rational, logical, and analytical response, which shocked most of the onlookers who were making a fuss.

A small number of people even went from hating her to becoming fans, thinking that Luo Xiyao is good-looking, has a great figure, is smart, and has perfect logic.

Miao Yuliu and Luo Xiyao, the two leading actresses, instantly became the most popular figures among the first-year students in the acting department.

Everything Miao Yuliu wore and carried was from top luxury brands. She seemed to want to wear all her valuables, with a proud and smug expression on her face.

Several girls followed Miao Yuliu, showing her concern and care while also taking a jab at Luo Xiyao in their conversation.

"I heard that Senior Shu arranged auditions this time, and Luo Xiyao didn't dare to sign up at all. I think she was afraid of losing to Yu Liu."

"Our Yu Liu is so beautiful, and her family is rich. She deserves the title of a 'darling of heaven.' Does Luo Xi Yao deserve it?"

"The department beauty pageant vote is locked tonight. Yu Liu's votes far exceed the second place, she's got it in the bag!"

"Yu Liu, the skincare brand you use is so expensive! I dream of owning that skincare set. No wonder your skin is so good."

Miao Yuliu tilted her chin up, thoroughly enjoying the flattery of those around her. She chuckled softly and replied.

"You like it? Then I'll give you a set."

"Really?" Miao Yuliu's third lackey was extremely excited and hurriedly helped Miao Yuliu carry her bag, his expression incredibly fawning.

"Of course it's true. I don't need this little bit of money. I'll just consider it a good deed."

"Yu Liu, we want some too!" The other lackeys stepped forward one after another, no longer caring about their unseemly eating habits.

"Look at you guys, so pathetic. Skincare products are nothing. Keep campaigning for me. Once I'm the most beautiful girl in the department, you'll get plenty of benefits from me."

"My father knows several famous directors. As long as you are loyal to me, I, Miao Yuliu, will take care of all your future films!"

"Wow, no problem! We'll definitely do everything we can to get you votes. You're definitely going to be the most beautiful girl in the department this time!"

The class was crowded, and Ning Yao and her roommates had already secured their seats.

Surrounded by several people, Miao Yuliu entered the classroom and caught a glimpse of Ning Yao and Cui Mengmeng chatting and laughing in hushed tones, as if the forum incident had no effect on her at all.

You're faking it, aren't you? How could you not care?

Miao Yuliu gritted her teeth and glared at Ning Yao as she passed by, letting out a cold snort.

Ning Yao didn't notice these little actions, focusing on listening to Cui Mengmeng chat about entertainment gossip, but Xin Yujue caught a glimpse of them.

She didn't know what grudges existed between Miao Yuliu and Luo Xiyao, but she felt that Miao Yuliu was abnormal, like a lunatic.

After attending four professional classes in one day, Cui Mengmeng was already exhausted and her vision was blurry. She glanced at Ning Yao, who was full of energy, and found it unbelievable.

"You're not even in the top three in the department beauty poll, I don't think you have a chance."

"If it's not going to happen, it's not going to happen. I don't care about that. I'd rather use that time to think about which cafeteria to eat at later."

Cui Mengmeng took out her phone, intending to order takeout, but a few messages from the school forum that suddenly popped up piqued her interest.

After opening the forum, she discovered that the rankings in the department's beauty pageant had changed; the first place was no longer Miao Yuliu, but... Luo Xiyao.

"Yaoyao, you've become the most beautiful girl in the department!" Cui Mengmeng shouted on the spot, attracting many strange looks from the students passing by.

Ning Yao raised an eyebrow indifferently, then took out her phone and opened the voting results.

Her clarification post is still there, but all the content that slandered her has been deleted.

"That's strange, who deleted this?" Ning Yao didn't want to delete it, but her skills weren't up to par.

Because she was too busy with work, she and Sanbao didn't learn much about hacking techniques; they only knew the most basic ones.

"Who cares who deleted it? Anyway, you're the most beautiful girl in the department now, and our whole dorm benefits from your success!"

"What kind of 'chicken' and 'dog' are you using? Can't you use a nicer word?" Ning Yao glanced at Cui Mengmeng and lightly tapped her forehead.

"If Miao Yuliu saw this, she'd be furious about her fake nose, right?" Cui Mengmeng chuckled, as if she could already picture Miao Yuliu's surgically altered face in disarray.

"Let's go eat first. We still need to practice our basic skills at the dance studio later." Ning Yao didn't care about the department's most beautiful girl. She took Cui Mengmeng's arm and led her to the cafeteria.

Meanwhile, Miao Yuliu flew into a rage in her dormitory and slammed her computer to the ground, smashing it to pieces.

The other roommates looked at each other, none of them daring to speak to Miao Yuliu at this moment.

Gu Ting sneered and said in a flat tone, "The beauty of this department should have been Luo Xiyao. What's there to be angry about?"
