Chapter 349: Chapter 349: Lu Ting Faces Humiliation (1)
All eyes in the class fell on them, waiting to munch on popcorn and watch the drama unfold.
Seeing that everyone was looking at them, Jiang Huai’s protective instincts toward Lu Ting imdiately went through the roof, ignoring Lu Ting’s efforts to stop him, he continued to speak.
“I really didn’t expect soone as seemingly quiet as you to harbor such strong jealousy. Lu Ting has done well enough, she neither fights nor competes; why do you want to drive her away? Is it because you think she has no one to stand up for her?”
He had already concluded that Lu Ting was not treated well in the Lu Family, and considering her recent state of mind not being great, she might have been abused.
The more Jiang Huai thought about it, the more alard he beca, “Even if you don’t like Lu Ting, you shouldn’t abuse her, right? Her grades have even slipped.”
The classmates were also startled.
They thought that the class president’s grades had dropped so rapidly; could it really be that she was being abused in the Lu Family?
Qiao Yun glanced at Lu Ting and said indifferently, “Driving her away is already the lightest punishnt.”
“Her grades are poor because her heart isn’t in studying.”
“Abusing her? Do you have evidence?”
“Without evidence, your statents already constitute slander against , and I can sue you.”
She spoke sharply, word for word.
Jiang Huai said in disbelief, “She’s already so miserable, and you even make such heartless comnts?”
“I’m not hardworking enough, and it has nothing to do with anyone else,” Lu Ting said with a voice full of restraint, looking extrely pitiful.
She was unhappy and wanted Qiao Yun to be unhappy too.
Jiang Huai felt terribly sorry for Lu Ting, “Tell what they did to you? If it’s too much, we can call the police, don’t be afraid, I’ll help you.”
“How can you talk nonsense about sothing with no evidence!” Xia Ling couldn’t stand it anymore and bravely stood up to speak for Qiao Yun.
Previously, she never would have dared to provoke Jiang Huai, but Qiao Yun had been so kind to her; how could she stand by and watch Qiao Yun be bullied?
“The evidence is the Lu Family driving Lu Ting away. Isn’t that enough!?” Jiang Huai’s face was clouded with gloom.
“The class president must have done sothing wrong.” Xia Ling defended stubbornly in a low voice.
Jiang Huai laughed in anger, “You’re on her side, of course you’d speak for her! Everyone knows the class president’s character; now that she’s been driven out of the Lu Family, it’s either because of Qiao Yun’s manipulation or because they want to abandon her now that their biological daughter has returned! Let’s not even talk about legality; morally, they can’t stand on solid ground!”
The classmates also agreed sowhat with Jiang Huai’s words.
As class president, Lu Ting was indeed flawless, respectful to teachers, and friendly to classmates; everyone liked her.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have continued as the class president.
But with the precedent set by Lu Xue, the classmates didn’t dare to jump to conclusions, fearing there might be so misunderstanding.
“I’m okay.”
Lu Ting’s eyes were red, and her words were heavy with grievance, “Although I have left the Lu Family, I have found my biological mother now, and things have been quite good with her.”
“You found your birth mother?” Jiang Huai looked at Lu Ting in surprise.
Lu Ting revealed a bittersweet smile, “Yes, my birth mother is the matron of the He Family in Hai City.”
No, Ya Man indeed treated her well, but she was not happy at all in the He Family.
Especially He Jianyan, who criticized her every day.
“The He Family in Hai City?” Jiang Huai was even more surprised, “That’s one of the several giants of Hai City.”
Looking at Lu Ting, the classmates’ eyes were instantly filled with envy, and they couldn’t help but whisper among themselves.
“Who would’ve thought the class president’s birth mother was from the He Family? Now she’s truly an heiress in every sense of the word.”
“That’s right. Before, she was just an adopted girl, not really an heiress; but now, her mother is from a wealthy family.”
“Now there’s a good show to watch. I wonder if her birth mother knows how she’s been treated by the Lu Family. Will she seek justice for her?”
“Don’t talk nonsense, there’s no evidence for this matter.”
“Jiang Huai might exaggerate, but it’s true that the class president was driven out of the Lu Family, isn’t it?”
“If it’s really true, the Lu Family is too foolish, the He Family is also a major clan.”
Receiving envious glances from her classmates, Lu Ting’s shaky self-respect finally began to return.
This was why she had approached Jiang Huai to share her tragic experiences.
Jiang Huai would stand up for her.
Her departure from the Lu Family was bound to leak out, and everyone would surely look at her differently.
It was better for her to strike first, leading everyone to believe that the Lu Family cold-heartedly drove her away, not that she was chased away for doing sothing wrong.
And she had the pretext to tell everyone that she now belonged to the He Family, whose circumstances were no worse than the Lu Family’s.
Jiang Huai felt a surge of vicarious pride, tauntingly saying to Qiao Yun, “Your Lu Family is really blind, mistaking a gem for a fish’s eye. Even if you regret it later, it will be too late.”
“You’re so noisy,” Qiao Yun comnted on Jiang Huai’s behavior, perhaps because she had too much free ti.
As the powerhouse of Shengyang High School, she had every reason to monitor that the students were studying hard.
So, Qiao Yun took out her phone and snitched to Yu Jin.
Yu Jin: “…” Alright, Jiang Huai, you’re done for!
Seeing that Qiao Yun not only told him he was annoying but also ignored him and started playing with her phone, Jiang Huai suddenly felt a tightness in his chest.
She was way too arrogant!
“I’m going to seek justice for Lu Ting today. You Lu Family bullied her, and I can’t just watch her be mistreated by you.”
“What do you want to do?” Qiao Yun’s voice was calm.
Jiang Huai gritted his teeth, his eyes darkening, “I can’t match your family, indeed I can’t do much to you, but don’t think you can do whatever you want just because you have the ans. I’m going to expose your deeds to the public. I might not be able to take you on by myself, but behind stand countless people of justice!”
He spoke with a passionate fervor.
Lu Ting was not at all grateful to him, even secretly cursing him for stirring up trouble for no reason.
If the Lu Family was provoked too much, who knows whether the things her real father did would be exposed.
Qiao Yun remarked, “Your eyesight seems to be poor, you need to get it checked.”
Jiang Huai: ??? Was she suggesting he was blind?
“The blindest thing I’ve done is not seeing through your true face sooner. You’ve been bullying Lu Ting for so long!”
“Really, let it go, I don’t mind,” Lu Ting softly interjected, her tone full of pain.
“They’ve raised for so many years after all. let’s just forget about the past. From now on, we owe each other nothing. I just want to live my life peacefully.”
“I’m sorry, Qiao. Jiang Huai is just worried about ; he didn’t an to upset you intentionally. Don’t bla him. If you have any complaints, direct them at .”
Jiang Huai was deeply moved, Lu Ting was so kind to protect him like that.
“Don’t be afraid. We live in a society governed by laws; they can’t do anything to . I’ll protect you from now on. I won’t let anyone bully you again,” he assured her.
Lu Ting smiled gratefully, “Please stop arguing with Qiao. I don’t want to talk about it anymore. I’m really doing well now, my mother is also treating well.”
“Why are you so good? It’s because you’re too kind that you get bullied by them.”
Jiang Huai sighed, reluctantly saying to Qiao Yun, “Since Lu Ting has pleaded for you, I’ll let you off in consideration of her. But rember this: if you dare to bully her again, I will never forgive you.”
