couple.

Isn’t that outright brown-nosing?
She sneaked a glance at Huo Jingshen.
He was sitting there, his long legs crossed, lips curled into a slight smile, his eyes full of pleasure. He simply couldn’t be any happier!
In the midst of the praising voices, a figure quietly turned to leave as if trying
to sneak away unnoticed.
However, she had barely reached the door when…
“Stop! Nobody is allowed to leave!” The Dean of Discipline roared out of nowhere, startling her so much that she turned white with fear.
Imdiately following it…
“Our Nancheng University, with a rich history of 100 years, has always upheld the motto of being united, disciplined, and academically rigorous. The purpose of the discussion forum is to provide a platform for students to communicate and exchange ideas, not to spread rumors, incite malicious argunts, or even deliberately defa, slander, or malign others!” The Dean of Discipline said with a stern look. “Lin, is this urgency to leave because of a guilty conscience?”
All eyes turned to Lin Qiao.
The horoom teacher was also stunned. “Dean Zhou, are you implying that
all those posts were made by Lin Qiao?”
“Teacher Wang, it wasn’t !” Lin Qiao hurriedly denied.
“If it wasn’t you, who else could it be?” Su Wanwan couldn’t help but step forward and accuse, “In the whole school, besides Weiyi, you and Jian Shuhao are the only ones from my high school. If it wasn’t you, could it be him?
Jian Shuhao, however, had no reaction at this ti.
Because he was still in shock. Su Wanwan…how did she beco the wife of Mr.
Huo?
What happened to being relatives?
Su Wenwen continued, “You told the Dean wanted to see . You then intentionally brought the horoom teacher, class committee, and a bunch of reporters. You barged in without even knocking. Could all this be a coincidence? Were you possibly trying to catch doing sothing wrong?
Lin Qiao bit her lip.
Only now was she starting to realize that sothing was off.
Exactly, could it really be such a coincidence?
The Dean just happened to summon Su Wanwan, a group of reporters just happened to be looking for the Dean, and they just happened to burst in and find Huo Jingshen and Su Wanwan on the couch together…
Normally, how could reporters be allowed into the school?
Not to ntion wandering around the office building?
Plus, she was sure she had knocked on the door earlier!
“It was obviously you! Are you still trying to deny it?
The accusations in her head confused Lin Qiao, and without thinking about earlier events, all she could do was deny it. “It wasn’t ! Definitely not ! If you don’t believe , you can check the forum IP! Check my phone!” “The posts all got shut down, how do we check?” The girl who had initially wanted to catch the cheaters in the act started talking, “You’re the main suspect out of everyone in the school because we all know that you’ve always had it in for Su Wenwen!”
Lin Qiao almost spat out a mouthful of blood in anger.
This treacherous girl, she was the one who suggested just now that they should catch the cheaters in the act!
“Exactly!” Another girl also saw the way the wind was blowing and chid in, “On Su Wanwan’s first day in class, you argued with her in front of everyone. Don’t think we’ve forgotten. And every ti she did well, you deliberately spread bad things about her. Who else could have done this other than you?” Only at this mont did Lin Qiao truly understand what it ant to be “kicked while you’re down”!
She said angrily, “Just monts ago, it was you two who said that the Dean had called Su Wanwan for a rendezvous, and you urged to gather everyone to catch them in the act. Now you’re pretending to be the good guys?”
Su Wanwan’s eyes swiveled, and a chilling light flashed in them. The girl’s face changed instantly out of fear, “That’s because we were misled by your posts! Now that we know Su Wanwan is Mr. Huo’s wife and knowing how outstanding Mr. Huo is, Su Wanwan could never possibly engage in an illegitimate relationship with other n!”
“Exactly!” The other girl hurriedly added, “It’s clearly you spreading malicious slander; your intentions are abominable! You’re simply jealous of Su Wanwan!” “Do you have any proof?” Lin Qiao gritted her teeth, “Without any evidence, you’re just slandering ! How is what you’re doing now any different from the person who posted those ssages?”
Anyhow, the forum posts had already been deleted and it was impossible to check them now.
As long as she kept denying it vehently, they couldn’t pin any bla on her.
“You…” The disciplinarian was so frustrated.
If only he hadn’t been so quick to delete the post; now there’s no evidence left. But there was no other choice. If the post hadn’t been deleted quickly, Mrs. Huo might have been the target of more campus bullying.
Catching a glimpse of Huo Jingshen’s cold, displeased gaze, the disciplinarian s legs began to shake.
Being a human is hard!
So what should we do now?
A tense standstill fell over the office.
Until, fast-paced footsteps echoed from the corridor.
Everyone rushed to look.
“Mr. Huo.”
Su Wanwan was surprised, why had Ji Jie arrived too?
Behind him was the Huo Family’s driver, Old Lian.
And behind them, a blonde girl with swollen, tear-streaked eyes entered, accompanied by two uniford policen.
Everyone’s expressions instantly changed, and Lin Qiao was so scared her legs gave out.
At Huo Jingshen’s cue, Ji Jie began to speak, “My na is Ji Jie, I am Mr. Huo’s assistant. I had previously visited the school once to help move Mrs. Huo’s dormitory. I didn’t expect that soone would deliberately take pictures.” After speaking, he introduced Old Lian, “This is the Huo family’s driver, Old
Lian.”
Old Lian, who was nad, quickly explained, “I ca that day to take the young lady shopping. Mrs. Huo and the second lady were both seated in the back. I only got out to open the car door for the young lady. You mustn’t misunderstand.”
Ji Jie continued, “These two are the officers in charge of this case.
One of the older policen spoke, “My na is Officer Wu. After receiving Mr. Ji’s report, we conducted an imdiate investigation and found that the person who posted the ssages was this student, Week Xiaohan, a second-year student in your school’s Chinese Literature departnt.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Xiaohan burst into tears, “All the old pictures of Su Wanwan were provided by Lin Qiao, so was the account I used to post. All the previous posts were made by her, I only made the last one. I was wrong, I won’t dare to do it again, teacher, can you stop the police from arresting ? I was wrong, teacher, I was wrong, woo-hoo…”
She was only nineteen after all, seeing the police made her panic and she confessed to everything, simply hoping to admit her mistakes in order to reduce her punishnt.
“You’re talking nonsense!” Lin Qiao shouted in desperation, “Don’t try to fra , it wasn’t ! I don’t even know you!
“Lin Qiao just admit it. I’ve got our WeChat conversation history here, the police have already seen it.”
Lin Qiao blurted out, “Didn’t I ask you to delete everything?”
“I did delete it, but… the police recovered it.” After speaking, Zhou Xiaohan started begging again, “Teacher, I was wrong, I initially disliked Su Wanwan and wanted to slander her and make everyone else hate her, I didn’t think things would get this serious…”.
“What utter foolishness!” The disciplinarian snorted, “Lin Qiao, what else do you have to say for yourself!”
But what could Lin Qiao say now?
Su Wanwan suddenly stepped forward, “Zhou Xiaohan, why would you slander for no reason?”
Zhou Xiaohan burst into tears, “That day in the cafeteria, you made apologize in front of everyone. It was so humiliating, I just…”
Su Wanwan:
Now she finally rembered.
This Zhou Xiaohan was the girl who had hit Bai Ruwei in the small cafeteria that day. She had been crying so much today that Su Wanwan hadn’t recognized her before.
“How did you et Lin Qiao?” Su Wanwan asked again.
“We’re from the sa hotown and we’re both mbers of the student council, she always took care of . We got along well so she often badmouthed you in front of . After I told her about the cafeteria incident, she suggested slandering you and asked to endorse the posts. When things blew up, she gave the account.” After finishing the explanation, Zhou Xiaohan started crying again, begging with all her might, “Su Wanwan, I was just confused for a mont, can you forgive ? I was misled by her, please ask the police not to arrest , I promise I will never do it again.”
“Confused for a mont?” Su Wanwan sneered, “If my husband hadn’t co to help and clear up everything, do you know how your ‘mont of confusion would have made the whole school see ? Those dirty, humiliating words wouldn’t have been about you, right? It feels good to post such slander and be a keyboard warrior, doesn’t it? Hoping for a simple apology when things go wrong, is there such a forgiving thing in this world? And, you!”
Su Wanwan’s gaze hardened as she turned to Lin Qiao, “What did I ever do to offend you? From the first day of school, you have been targeting endlessly.. I didn’t squabble with you out of maturity, but you took it as encouragent? You made troubles for every day, slandering and scorning behind my back wasn’t enough, now you’re posting about as well? Did I desecrate your family’s grave or sothing?”
