True or False Heiress: Becoming a Vicious Supporting Female Character (35)
Shao Yan always remembered that if he wanted Chu Xiang to come again, he must treat her well. Hence, throughout the evening, he made every effort to present everything he considered good to Chu Xiang. However, his efforts only manifested in taking her here and there.
They spent some time playing games in the game room, then went to the flower house to admire the flowers, followed by a visit to the gym for a workout, and finally went to the study to find books to read.
They didn’t have much time for the whole night, yet Chu Xiang managed to familiarize herself with the layout of Shao’s residence inside and out. As it was getting late into the early morning, Shao Yan wanted to take her to the yard, but she quickly said, “I need to sleep. My health isn’t good, and the doctor said I must sleep and wake up early.”
Shao Yan paused, furrowing his brows tightly. He had neglected and forgotten about her need for better care for her health. He felt a momentary panic in his heart and hurriedly grabbed Chu Xiang’s sleeve, escorting her to the adjacent room.
The servants had already tidied up the room, plus his parents didn’t express any objection to her staying overnight. They had prepared the room for her from the very start. If the two children were close to each other, it would make it convenient for them to talk or seek each other out for any matters.
The Shao couple had been in the downstairs hall all along, fearing that the two children might suddenly want to find them but not daring to disturb them in the study. But, surprisingly, this turned out to be the least busy day for the two of them in terms of work, yet they felt even more exhausted than when they were working. Of course, this “exhaustion” was something they desired. If Shao Yan could recover to normal, they were willing to do anything.
Before going to sleep, Chu Xiang deliberately went downstairs to bid them goodnight. Shao Yan’s situation was special, and she guessed that they must have investigated her. Since they did not express their rejection, she settled down with peace of mind. Why stay outside when there is a comfortable place to stay?
On this day, neither of the Chu family’s daughters went home. However, one of them went to live at a classmate’s house, which was a common practice among classmates, so they were rest assured and didn’t ask much; the other, however, didn’t dare not go home and stayed away. They were determined to polish Chu Xiang’s temperament, so naturally they did not pay attention to her. They slept soundly, unaware that the gossip about the Chu family had already caused a small whirlwind outside. No matter what, the small whirlwind would eventually turn into a tornado, and it would be too late to control it by then.
The guest room arranged by the Shao family for Chu Xiang has a laptop computer with high configuration. After seeing it, Chu Xiang asked the Qiankun Mirror to wake her up at four in the morning and posted a post on the campus forum.
[The toad you all want to see, as well as a shocking revelation! For details, see attached ——]
At the top of the post was a photo taken in the locker room with the Qiankun Mirror. Chu Xuan was facing the mirror, with water droplets still hanging on her face. However, the eyeliner drawing of ae toad didn’t fade a bit. It looked incredibly lifelike, as if a real toad was perched on her face. It was particularly vivid and disgustingly repulsive. It was really uncomfortable to even take a glance.
Classmates couldn’t even recognize Chu Xuan as the person in the mirror. They could only confirm her identity from her hairstyle and watch. The students who saw it early in the morning couldn’t even eat breakfast properly. Naturally, they developed a strong aversion to Chu Xuan, who affected their appetite. Even the students who had already eaten breakfast had a pale complexion upon seeing the photo. They felt a nauseating discomfort in their stomachs and regretted seeing that photo.
But if given a chance to start over, they would still click on the post.
The post not only contained the photo but also an analysis of the “cause and effect” and the opinions of onlookers.
Chu Xuan’s school uniform was torn apart again, and she had that thing drawn on her face. She claimed that Chu Xiang did it, but seven or eight classmates from the same class testified that Chu Xiang didn’t have the opportunity to cause trouble in the changing room. The most crucial point was that the principal investigated the surveillance footage, which showed that during that time period, there was only Chu Xuan in the changing room. Nobody harmed her.
According to Chu Xiang, this was Chu Xuan’s self-directed performance. This kind of behavior was not the first time, including several “pranks” that didn’t escalate before, as well as the framing incidents at the Chu residence. Chu Xiang has gotten used to it, and now her only wish was not to be expelled. She just wanted to study well in school, get into a good university, and find a stable job.
Chu Xuan personally requested the Principal to investigate the previous incidents. Due to the coverage of the surveillance footage, they could only check the past 20 days, and there was only one toilet incident within that time frame, which seemed unrelated to Chu Xiang no matter how everyone looked at it. Either Chu Xuan staged it herself, or she was constipated. All the girls who had been to the toilet were also suspected. Anyway, there was no solid evidence to prove that Chu Xiang was responsible.
Later, Chu Xuan changed her statement and told the principal that the person who bullied her in the changing room was wearing a mask, and she didn’t recognize the person.
When you think about it, this indirectly corroborated the fact that Chu Xuan falsely accused Chu Xiang. The Chu family favored her, and it was already difficult for Chu Xiang to be recognized. Would she dare to bully others in such a brazen manner? It sounded reasonable to say that Chu Xuan, the impostor, maliciously framed Chu Xiang, wanting to push her away and continue enjoying wealth and prosperity.
Also what about Wang Shasha’s expression in the photo? Disgust? Or did she feel sick? Considering the angle, Chu Xuan probably didn’t know about Wang Wang Shasha’s expression at that time. But now she definitely knew about it, so how would she react? Could their close friendship continue?
