True or False Heiress: Becoming a Vicious Supporting Female Character (37)
Chu Xiang looked at her with caution and anticipation, resembling a weak person who had long been oppressed and dared not resist. Sometimes, the weak are not necessarily weak in their hearts, but the situation is stronger than them. In order to obtain something more important, they are willing to endure all other injustices.
Chu Xiang was just like that now, making people want to speak up for her when they saw her. Immediately, a male student spoke up, “Chu Xuan, that’s enough. Let bygones be bygones. Be more cautious in the future. Just find good company among the girls.”
A female student chimed in, “I can see that you two don’t have any intentions to hold grudges. Let’s turn the page, shall we?”
Zhang Qi looked at the description in the post, stood up, and said, “There’s no harm in being open about it since you’re all family. As for the suggestion of applying for on-campus accommodation, it’s actually a good idea. Chu Xiang needs some time to adapt to the new environment. You can stay on campus for a semester and return home in the next semester. It’s not a big deal. Let’s not mention it anymore.”
The classmates in the class looked around, not wanting to get involved in any grudges. Since there were no personal conflicts, they naturally sided with resolving the situation. However, most of the classmates remained silent, indicating that they had many thoughts in their minds.
Chu Xuan could only lower her head in response to the situation. Since her classmates were saying this, it would be strange for her to continue lingering on the matter. If others were not holding grudges, could she insist on holding one? Moreover, excessive crying was not endearing. She wiped away her tears with the back of her hand and smiled at Chu Xiang, “Don’t worry, Sister. I will explain everything to our parents and teachers. You’re not familiar with the new environment, so it’s more convenient to stay at home. Applying for on-campus accommodation requires me to do it. I’m very familiar with the school. Sister, I’ll go out and tidy up.”
It seemed like they truly had a sisterly bond.
What exactly did Chu Xuan do to win the Best Actress award? Every frown, smile, tear, and gesture, including her turning around and running out, was meticulously planned. It made people feel less repulsed by her and instead started to ponder if they had wrongly accused her.
They had been classmates for two years and always got along well. Everyone had an extremely positive impression of Chu Xuan. How could someone with such a good personality suddenly become so malicious because of her identity? Most likely, she was falsely accused again, just like what happened to Chu Xiang before, right?
Wang Shasha went to the restroom first. When she returned and found that Chu Xuan was not there, she immediately asked Chu Xuan’s desk mate in a nervous tone. To her surprise, everyone gave her strange looks. Chu Xuan’s desk mate sneered, “I thought you and Chu Xuan were so close, but it turns out you act one way to her face and another way behind her back. You seem so concerned now, but Chu Xuan probably doesn’t want to see you.”
“What do you mean?” Wang Shasha’s eyebrows furrowed, showing her anger.
The classmates chuckled. “Go check the campus forum yourself. You should receive an Oscar, you’re the Oscar-winning actress of our class!”
The classmates burst into laughter, while Wang Shasha remained clueless. She immediately opened the forum and felt a jolt in her heart when she saw the pinned post. As she looked at the photos inside, her eyes widened in disbelief.
She genuinely cared about Chu Xuan. She didn’t even realize she had such expressions on her face. It must have been an instinctive reaction or just a momentary response, but it was captured like that.
The key question was, who took those photos? The person who bullied Chu Xuan?
Wang Shasha felt a chill down her spine, forgetting to ask Chu Xuan about her reaction upon seeing the photos. Her mind was filled with the possibility that the deranged person might have been standing right behind her!
At that time, only she and Chu Xuan were in the changing room. If that person wanted to do something, she wouldn’t have had time to resist. This time, it was a prank, drawing something on Chu Xuan’s face, but what if next time it wasn’t just a pen, but a knife?
She took a sharp breath, freezing in place. She was terrified!
Her desk mate saw her reaction and thought she was shocked to have her hypocritical side exposed. She glanced at her disdainfully and turned away. Plastic sisterhood was not uncommon in the entertainment industry, but it looked ugly when it played out in public. Within half a day, friends in the industry would know about this incident, and from then on, Wang Shasha and Chu Xuan’s plastic friendship would be infamous.
Wang Shasha had no intention of finding Chu Xuan. She hurriedly took her phone and went to the disciplinary office, hoping that the school would thoroughly investigate the surveillance near the changing room window and identify any suspicious students. The angle and timing of the photo were too terrifying. Who could have taken it? It couldn’t have been someone who accidentally entered the changing room because the surveillance footage showed that no one entered during that time.
It was too frightening. When Wang Shasha had heard about Chu Xuan being bullied before, she didn’t feel that way. She was just angry and stood up for Chu Xuan. But now, she found herself in the same situation. Only then did she realize that it truly made her scalp tingle. Fear emerged from the depths of her heart, uncontrollable.
Suddenly, she remembered when Chu Xiang had asked in front of the whole class why, if she had repeatedly bullied Chu Xuan, Chu Xuan still approached her without any resentment. Why could Chu Xuan genuinely show care? Why was she able to act alone without fear?
Wang Shasha felt overwhelmed with the information she had learned about the incident. The facts and Chu Xuan’s behavior became contradictory, making it impossible to understand no matter how she thought about it. Especially with the fear she was experiencing now, she didn’t even want to go to school. She had helped Chu Xuan so much and scolded those who bullied her. What if the other party got angry and targeted her as well?
