True or False Heiress: Becoming a Vicious Supporting Female Character (53)
Mother Chu was always satisfied with her daughters, so when she heard Mrs. Li’s words, she thought she was referring to the incident at the swimming pool, which made her feel irritated. Chu Xiang almost drowned, and the parents of these children must surely know about it. Chu Xiang pushed Chu Xuan with ill intentions, but she ended up in trouble herself. What a shameful incident!!
Mother Chu couldn’t possibly complain to anyone or reveal their family’s secrets. She maintained a dignified smile and said, “The child was brought back at such a mature age, and her personality is already formed. It’s difficult to control. Fortunately, there haven’t been any major issues. We’ll teach her slowly, and she will improve eventually.”
As Mrs. Li listened to her words, she noticed that Mrs. Chu was completely biased towards Chu Xuan. She didn’t think Chu Xuan did anything wrong. All the blame was placed on Chu Xiang. Mrs. Li couldn’t help but glance at her. Chu Xuan’s school uniform was torn to pieces, her face was painted with spots, and she firmly accused Chu Xiang of doing it. However, it was later discovered that Chu Xiang was innocent and that it was highly likely that Chu Xuan orchestrated the whole thing. Mrs. Chu actually said it wasn’t a big deal and still believed Chu Xiang was at fault? How biased could she be?
Mrs. Li couldn’t imagine how Mrs. Chu could be unaware of this incident when even an outsider like herself knew about it. How could a mother not know? So, Mrs. Li directly interpreted her words as biased, to the extent of being biased across the Pacific Ocean.
From the way Mrs. Chu didn’t get angry, much less investigate the school, it was evident that Chu Xuan’s incident was definitely not someone else’s fault. Otherwise, which parent wouldn’t be anxious and angry when their child was treated like that? It was like encountering a psychopath, so dangerous!
In Mrs. Li’s eyes, Mrs. Chu’s reaction became conclusive evidence that Chu Xuan orchestrated the whole situation to falsely accuse Chu Xiang. Mrs. Chu’s bias led Mrs. Li to remove her from the list of acquaintances and secretly decide to have less contact with her in the future. Of course, she also reminded her own children to stay away from Chu Xuan. To stage such a twisted drama just to protect their position in the Chu family and cause the real heiress of the Chu family to drop out of school; having such a malicious mindset at such a young age; it was best to avoid any contact.
Mrs. Li had her own circle of friends, and naturally, she would discuss it with others. However, since the matter didn’t escalate, it was only discussed within a small circle among the ladies. But once a second person knew about something, it would eventually become public knowledge. Currently, only a few people know, but it was just a matter of time.
From the perspective of those few people who knew, they all believed that the Chu couple was heartless and only cared for the child they raised themselves. Yet, they showed extraordinary indifference towards their own flesh and blood who was brought back from outside. Just think about it, if Chu Xiang were to drop out of school due to the incident with the spotted toad, being disliked by her own family, unable to be the heiress, and even deprived of education, wouldn’t she be ruined? When the Chu couple was no longer around and Chu Xuan kicked her out, she wouldn’t even have the ability to support herself.
No wonder Chu Xiang was studying so hard now. If she could persist, she was actually quite clever, knowing how to make use of the available resources for her own benefit. Although this “benefit” was insignificant for her parents, for Chu Xiang, it was the best she could currently obtain.
The image of the Chu couple mistreating their own daughter was like a seed planted in the industry. With proper nourishment, it can grow into a towering tree that cannot be whitewashed.
And all of this was the result of Chu Xiang’s preparations over the past few days. She loves this kind of strategy where she sets up traps and eventually makes people fall into the abyss. After all, she doesn’t have much power in the early stages of her time travel, so this method of unconsciously trapping her opponents is the most effective and convenient.
After sending the Qiankun Mirror out for a couple of days, Chu Xiang gained a specific understanding of the current situation and adjusted her plans accordingly.
Before the Monday morning reading session, there weren’t many people in the class, so Chu Xiang hesitantly borrowed money from Yu Nan.
Shao Yan looked at her in confusion. Didn’t her parents give her a card? Why does she need to borrow money from someone else? Doesn’t she want to spend her family’s money?
Yu Nan also paused for a moment and asked, “How much do you need?”
Chu Xiang said, “200 yuan will do.”
“Ah? 200 yuan?” This time, not only Yu Nan, but everyone in the class was stunned, all looking at Chu Xiang in unison.
Chu Xiang blushed and lowered her head, saying in a small voice, “My family… froze my card. I, I didn’t withdraw cash before, and I used WeChat to pay directly with the card, so now I don’t… have money for meals.”
There were sounds of disbelief in the class, and Chu Xiang looked embarrassed. She raised her head and leaned closer to Yu Nan, saying, “Don’t worry, I’ll find a part-time job over the weekend, and I’ll repay you within half a month at most.”
Seeing her urgency, Yu Nan took out her phone, ready to send her some money. She said in confusion, “You’re going to work on weekends, and you need 200 yuan for a week? Are you going to survive on scraps? Let me transfer 10,000 yuan to you first.”
