Chapter 198: 198 The Situation Comes to a Close

198 The Situation Comes to a Close

“Jiang Xue, I don’t know what I did to offend you for you to say such things about me,” Shen Xi said.

The students around them gave Jiang Xue strange looks. Previously, they had not known much about Shen Xi, but with today’s incident, it was clear Jiang Xue was trying to frame Shen Xi in a negative light.

Even Su Ni, Jiang Xue’s lapdog, had testified against her. It seemed Jiang Xue had been targeting Shen Xi all along.

Jiang Xue glared at Shen Xi and then at Su Ni, who sat at her desk, refusing to meet her eyes, and stomped out of the classroom angrily.

Zhao Yuan could not resist the impulse to jeer as Jiang Xue exited the classroom. “What? Is that all? Have you no shame? If you’re so capable, you should stay and explain yourself!”

Zhao Yuan’s smug look caused many of her classmates to laugh at Jiang Xue.

Zhao Yuan walked up to Su Ni and slung an arm around her shoulders, saying, “Su Ni, I’m glad you still know the difference between right and wrong. You’re a good person.”

Su Ni forced a smile, but her heart trembled with anxiety. She had chosen to side with Shen Xi over Jiang Xue. She did it out of a subconscious belief that Shen Xi had a power backing her far greater than Jiang Xue’s, so she chose not to offend the greater of two evils.

Another reason was that she had seen through Jiang Xue’s true nature. Jiang Xue was selfish and vicious. Even if she sided with her, Jiang Xue would not throw her away as soon as she became a liability: she was expendable. So long as Jiang Xue got what she wanted and protected herself from threats, nothing else mattered, not even their friendship.

Hence, the decision Su Ni made.

It was for the best.

Not all children of wealthy families treated one another with the same level of respect. The strong and more powerful stepped on those with weaker foundations; this was the reality Su Ni had awoken to upon understanding the changes occurring around her and in her family.

Seeing worry cloud Su Ni’s face, Zhao Yuan comforted, “You don’t need to be afraid. You did nothing wrong, so why should you fear anything? Even if the Jiang family moves against the Su family, it’s not like your family will roll over and die; things aren’t as simple as they seem.”

Zhao Yuan felt a smidgen of guilt even as those words left her lips. If it was before, when the Su family and her Zhao family were evenly matched, Zhao Yuan felt that the Jiang family would have to expend some effort to deal with the Su family.

After all, the Jiang Xue family was only slightly more powerful in Rongcheng. They would have to pay the price if they wanted to deal with the Su family without effort.

Unfortunately, the Su family had offended someone they could not afford to offend and was almost pushed into bankruptcy. This caused the family’s overall strength to plummet.

If the Jiang family chose to deal with the Su family, it would not take much to cripple them completely.

Su Ni knew Zhao Yuan was only saying those things to comfort her. She had always been at odds with Zhao Yuan, yet she was now lending her a shoulder to lean on. Life truly was full of ups and downs.

“Hey, everyone, look at the school forum. There’s a new post on it,” someone suddenly said.

Phones appeared in a multitude of hands. Zhao Yuan also took hers out. Shen Xi could only rely on Zhao Yuan since her phone was broken.

The eight intruders had their identities posted on the school forum. They were all criminals who had been paid to commit nefarious acts and had only been released from prison very recently.

Those eight men received money from an anonymous source to go after Guan Lei. Who would have thought Shen Xi would be implicated in this matter because she was staying in the same observation room?

Attached was a video of those eight men confessing to their crimes.

In this way, the conspiracy theory that Shen Xi had solicitous relations with those eight men evaporated into thin air.

Guan Lei sighed in relief. Fortunately, he had acted in time. Otherwise, how was he supposed to record a video of those eight men confessing before they died at Meng Yu’s hands? The mere thought caused Meng Yu caused his expression to crumble.

The best way to protect Shen Xi was to distance the matter from her; no other explanation would suffice.

Meanwhile, those two childish cousins of Shen Xi continued bickering in the infirmary, each blaming the other.

“It’s all your fault! If it weren’t for you, I would have cleared up the matter for Shen Xi before someone else could take credit for it!” Zheng Huai spat, one hand on his waist while the other pointed at Lu Lin.

Not to be outdone, Lu Lin shouted, “How is it my fault? You were the one dragging your feet!”

The two of them continued their fight for a long time.
