"Apologies are easy for anyone, I can do it too. How many do you want? I'll give you one, a slap plus an 'I'm sorry,' how about that? If you think that's not enough, two will do too."
Do you think you can just turn the page with a flimsy apology?
Who cares about your cheap "sorry"?
Do you want to downplay the incident by ignoring those who bullied you?
Dream on.
In the end, Chu Shanwen and the others each transferred 10,000 yuan to Lin Chuxia, euphemistically calling it "compensation for mental distress," and only then was the matter considered settled.
They inexplicably lost a sum of money, which was insignificant to them, but they still felt inexplicably humiliated.
Chu Shanwen suppressed his anger and looked at Xie Yi: "You've said your mind and given the money, can we go back now?"
"Get out of here!" Xie Yi waved his hand at them, as if shooing away a swarm of annoying flies, his face showing a hint of impatience. "I hope you remember this lesson! If I find out in the future that any of you will use what happened today to retaliate against her, no matter how much you kneel down and apologize, it won't be of any use! Understand?"
"Okay, we all understand. We won't make things difficult for Lin because of this. What happened today was our fault. I promise I won't cause Lin any trouble because of this..."
Several classmates who had previously mocked Lin Chuxia made promises one by one before following Chu Shanwen away.
The group had come in all high spirits, but now they were leaving in a sorry state.
An Mingzhu walked at the very back, and she was very unwilling when she left.
She never expected that not only would she fail to invite Lin Chuxia and severely suppress her limelight, but she would also lose face in front of everyone.
Recently, Lin Chuxia has been incredibly popular at Jin University. Even though she hasn't done anything special, she became a celebrity at Jin University after her status as the top scorer in the national college entrance examination was revealed at the freshman orientation party.
The other freshmen, no matter how hard they tried, were overshadowed by Lin Chuxia's brilliance as the "National Top Scorer," "Jinda Freshman Queen," and "Most Beautiful Campus Belle," becoming inconspicuous passersby.
Having always been the center of attention since childhood, An Mingzhu couldn't stand this, especially since the person being talked about and praised by everyone was Lin Chuxia, whom she had always looked down upon.
She was unwilling to accept it!
"I'm so sorry for getting everyone involved this time. How about this: I'll cover all the losses for everyone. Also, as compensation, all the expenses for our trip to the beach tonight will be on me. Is that alright?"
An Mingzhu looked at everyone, feeling deeply ashamed.
“How can this be your fault? The main responsibility lies with me. Xie Yi was mainly targeting me. So, I'll pay for it!” Chu Shanwen shook his head and said.
"Brother Shanwen, please don't try to take it from me! The money just now was all for Chuxia... It was my oversight that Chuxia would do this, causing everyone to feel wronged. I apologize to everyone on Chuxia's behalf!"
An Mingzhu bowed to everyone.
She was very sincere, and although everyone had some reservations about her because of what had happened before, all their discomfort had now disappeared.
"It's alright, it's alright, how could this be your fault? We were also at fault."
"It's all our fault for being so talkative back then, but we never expected that Lin Chuxia would actually know Senior Brother Xie Yi... What bad luck!"
An Mingzhu forced a smile: "Yeah, I didn't know either, Chu Xia actually knows Senior Brother Xie Yi..."
