Shen Xi frowned. Just as he was about to check the school forums using her phone, she remembered how it had been smashed; whether it still worked was up in the air. Sensing Shen Xi’s inner turmoil, Guan Lei used his phone to log into the school forum page. Shen Xi’s name was listed as a threading thread at the top of the page.
[ Shen Xi, a senior year student at Zhuo Ying High School, has multiple boyfriends. They were caught creating a fuss outside a police station. ]
The post’s contents focused on Shen Xi’s incredible persuasive skills, using her feminine wiles to seduce her classmate, Guan Lei, and the new doctor, Zheng Huai. It even described how Zheng Huai kissed Shen Xi only to be caught by Guan Lei, which resulted in a fight between the two.
More scandalous than that were the eight lovers who snuck their way into Zhuo Ying High School under cover of night to look for Shen Xi. According to certain unspecified sources, those eight boyfriends planned to have a good time with her but soon discovered their competition. Two became ten with the addition of the eight new suitors, resulting in a horrific clash.
The fight grew so serious that campus security and the police were alerted to the situation. Their arrival stopped an escalation, preventing the altercation from becoming an armed brawl.
Yet, despite the unruly behaviour of those eight men, the police confirmed that they had been released, hinting that it was because they knew someone in Zhuo Ying High School who spoke up for them. The most likely culprit in the eyes of the public was none other than… Shen Xi!
The post seemed fairly reasonable. After all, a grudge caused by love was nothing new. The poster went so far as to upload surveillance footage of Guan Lei and Shen Xi entering and leaving the observation room together. Another set of videos showed Shen Xi and the school doctor, Zheng Huai, acting intimately. The last image consisted of several pictures of the eight men being taken away by the police in the early hours of the morning.
The thread exploded with comments; most were unscrupulous, while others leaned towards the profane, hurling abuse at Shen Xi. Strangely, a few unknown IDs also appeared, commenting on the thread. They did not look like posts from students of the school.
[ She’s so beautiful. I wonder how good she is in bed. I want to taste her. ]
[ Good heavens! Is she a modern-day prostitute? She has ten boyfriends! ]
[ How are they her boyfriends? It seems more likely that they are her walking ATMs. Is she someone who sells her body for money? ]
[ How much for a night? I want a shot too. ]
[ Disgusting… How can such a woman be a student of our school? Hurry up and expel her already! ]
[ A slut like her is only going to drag the school’s name through the gutter. ]
[ I want to see her cry. I think she’d look even prettier, then. ]
Dark clouds hung over Guan Lei. He bade her a stiff goodbye before leaving. Not a second later, Shen Xi was asked to report to the principal’s office. Her form teacher, Sun Ling, and the Director of Education were also summoned.
The Director was furious when he laid eyes on Shen Xi. The incident had been spread far and wide, and there was no way for the school to suppress word of what had happened.
Just earlier that morning, the school was flooded by calls from reporters demanding the right to interview the staff regarding the conflict.
Sun Ling eyed the Director, who was still fuming and cautiously raised the subject with her student. “Shen Xi, could you please explain what happened last night and earlier this morning?”
Sun Ling knew Zheng Huai was Shen Xi’s cousin, but this matter had blown out of proportion, involving him and several others, including Guan Lei and those eight outsiders. Sun Ling felt it was necessary to hear Shen Xi’s side of the story before any decisions were made.
She had phoned the police station to confirm the information posted on the thread, and their reply was both disturbing and confusing. The police stated that the eight men were not intruders, but people Shen Xi and the others knew. Those who were uninformed would naturally jump to conclusions.
Sun Ling was very worried about Shen Xi. As Shen Xi’s form teacher, she had full faith in her student and believed there had to be some misunderstanding.
Shen Xi knew Sun Ling cared about her and could see her form teacher’s worry etched on her face, so she spoke truthfully, “I’m not sure what’s going on either. I’ve been recuperating in the observation room these past few days because of my poor health. I don’t know who these eight men are.”
“How can you not know? Do you think everything will be swept under the rug by merely saying you don’t know them? It isn’t just you. Guan Lei and Zheng Huai are also implicated in this matter. Tell me, what is your relationship with those two? So young yet already so immoral,” the Director dismissed Shen Xi’s words haughtily.
The Director’s words lit a fire in Shen Xi’s heart, which burst into a raging inferno. “Sir, aren’t you going too far with your words? I’ve been in the observation room under the doctor’s orders. Guan Lei and I shared a room because we were being treated for similar reasons. I’m sure Doctor Wang can testify on Guan Lei and my behalf.”
