Facing the camera, Xia Chuyue rarely expressed her feelings.
"I always felt sleepy in high school, like I couldn't get enough sleep. Fortunately, I wasn't as stressed in college, so I was able to catch up a bit."
Xia Xinxin covered her lips and exclaimed in surprise.
"I thought someone as beautiful as Chuyue would be famous in high school! I didn't expect you to be so ordinary?"
Xia Chuyue didn't want to answer Xia Xinxin's question, but because the camera was filming, she still gave a perfunctory reply.
"There's no such thing as being famous in high school; everyone's busy studying."
Xia Xinxin nodded thoughtfully, but as soon as she opened her mouth, the topic inexplicably shifted to the female lead.
"But it sounds like the female guest's high school life was pretty tough. Chuyue, were there any bullying groups at your school?"
Xia Chuyue felt that Xia Xinxin was implying something, always subtly steer the conversation back to her.
"I don't know, I haven't been paying attention."
The director started cuing the next celebrity to answer, but Xia Chuyue turned her head and stared blankly somewhere else.
Another wave of admiring comments flooded the screen.
[Ouch! The first month is so beautiful! ]
Are Xia Xinxin and Chu Yue close? Some of the things she said seemed a bit strange!
[You're overthinking it. But Xia Chuyue does seem to dislike Xia Xinxin, and Xia Xinxin also seems to dislike her. Is there some kind of gossip between them?]
After a brief period of chaos in the live chat, viewers were quickly drawn back to the re-running dating reality show.
In the scene, the female lead reveals her past experience of being bullied.
"...They cornered me in the bathroom, and they kept slapping me and tearing up my homework, but all of that is in the past now. I'm living my life seriously now."
The second female lead hugged her tenderly and patted her shoulder.
"It's okay, everything is fine."
"That's right, bullies should die a horrible death!"
Upon hearing this, the female lead sighed.
"But God is so unfair. The person who bullied me is now a glamorous superstar."
Realizing she had said something she shouldn't have, the female lead quickly shut up.
However, netizens watching the live stream noticed it and began to discuss it with righteous indignation.
Which celebrity would dare to be this arrogant?!
[This is disgusting! The bullied person can't get over it after so long, but the bully becomes a big star. Isn't that ironic?]
[My heart aches for you! I went through the same thing in high school, sob sob~]
Seeing this part of Xia Chuyue, I finally remembered what the familiar style of the female lead was all about.
[No wonder we looked so familiar! The female lead is from our school!]
During her high school years, Xia Chuyue received a government subsidy for her tuition, but she also did odd jobs for teachers to earn some living expenses.
On one occasion, when Xia Chuyue was delivering documents to her teacher, she saw the female lead in the office.
However, back then, the female lead didn't look as cheerful and lively as she does now; she exuded the sharp edge of a non-mainstream, rebellious girl.
At that time, she was being criticized by the head teacher for hitting a female classmate and posting her name tag on the bulletin board.
But she seemed indifferent, and when she saw her female classmate crying, she even made a few sarcastic remarks.
"I'm a victim too! If she hadn't been walking without looking where she was going and knocked me to the ground, I wouldn't have done that!"
At that time, both the teacher and Xia Chuyue at the door were speechless because of her soft, manipulative voice.
Although she still wanted to watch the drama unfold, Xia Chuyue had to reluctantly return to the classroom because there was a pop quiz in the next class.
To this day, Xia Chuyue still doesn't know how the school dealt with this delinquent girl.
I only heard that she dropped out of school later.
Xia Chuyue touched her chin and suddenly realized that something was wrong.
The female lead is from our school. The classmate who bullied her became a big star, but our high school is in a small county, and there don't seem to be many stars there.
[No, there aren't just a few, there's practically only me!]
[Is the bully she's talking about me?!]
Xia Chuyue quickly discovered the blind spot and mentally cursed a few times.
[How can this bullying sister be so good at pretending!]
[It's one thing to be a bullying ringleader, but now you're going on TV and trying to portray yourself as a victim to gain sympathy from the audience. Don't you feel guilty?]
She even tried to throw dirty water on me!
Xia Chuyue was furious. She took a breath, then, as if remembering something, gave Xia Xinxin a cold glance.
When Xia Xinxin saw the female lead finally bring up this matter, the corners of her mouth were turning up like crazy.
Noticing Xia Chuyue's gaze, Xia Xinxin chuckled softly and feigned confusion as she asked.
"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me all of a sudden, Sister Chuyue?"
When Xia Chuyue saw Xia Xinxin's appearance, she almost laughed out of anger.
Xia Xinxin probably didn't expect that the female lead who was arranged to smear Xia Chuyue on the show was actually a bully herself.
Xia Chuyue turned her head without speaking and continued watching the variety show on the screen.
Xia Xinxin gave a soft snort, feeling smug.
Early summer, your good days are almost over!
Online, as the female lead recounted her experience, and with the help of online trolls, the topic of being bullied quickly became a trending topic.
The comments section is filled with countless netizens' experiences of being bullied, which is heartbreaking to read.
[To be honest, I was bullied by teachers and classmates in high school. I was forced to kneel in the snow to do my tests, and all ten of my fingers swelled up and cracked.]
[I was isolated and subjected to passive-aggressive treatment. All my classmates avoided me, and no one would pass me their exam papers. I still don't want to think about my high school life.]
