The surrounding classmates were talking, "Yes, Hua Rui is a victim. Shi Xi can't hate her just because she's friends with Zhou Jin."
"Birds of a feather flock together. Shi Xi's character isn't much better; she's just all looks."
“After what happened, Zhou Jin still has the nerve to come to school. If it were me, I wouldn’t have the face to come to school.”
...
The surrounding classmates were afraid of Han Yan and dared not criticize him. But they were not afraid of Shi Xi, Zhou Jin, and Qin Xue, so they became the targets of the attack.
Han Yan said angrily, "What are you all talking about here? If I hear another bad word about Shi Xi and the others from your mouths, I won't stand for it."
Shi Xi and Qin Xue stood in front of and behind Zhou Jin, shielding him from the malicious gazes of these people.
Shi Xi glared at Hua Rui, "I don't know you, and we have nothing to talk about. Class is about to start, why aren't you going back to the classroom?"
Hua Rui looked aggrieved and cried, "Shi Xi, I'm sorry, I have to go back to class now."
After saying that, she ran away crying.
Shi Xi: ...
What heinous crime did she commit to make Hua Rui cry?
She's such a beautiful white lotus flower.
Shi Xi's eyes flashed with murderous intent as she coldly said, "Why aren't you leaving? What are you doing here?"
People around were frightened by Shi Xi's gaze, and soon the crowd dispersed.
"Zhou Jin, we all believe in you." Shi Xi patted Zhou Jin on the shoulder.
Qin Xue put her arm around Zhou Jin's shoulder and said, "Yes, we will always believe in you."
Han Yan punched Zhou Jin in the chest. "Good brother, I believe in you."
Zhou Jin smiled wryly, "Thank you."
"I'm sorry. Hua Rui probably came to me because I took her place as the school beauty. You're being dragged into this because of me," Shi Xi said guiltily.
“That incident has never really passed, and I’ve gotten used to being pointed at and talked about by my classmates.”
Shi Xi, Qin Xue, and Han Yan secretly resolved to find evidence as soon as possible.
**
The second period ended.
"Little fairy, everyone on the internet is badmouthing you now. Someone posted a picture of Hua Rui crying and running away from you on the campus forum."
Qin Xue handed the phone to Shi Xi.
On the campus forum, a striking headline reads: "[School beauty Shi Xi makes Hua Rui cry; she's friends with pervert Zhou Jin—is this a moral failing, a loss of humanity?]"
[Is there any behind-the-scenes manipulation in the school beauty poll results, given that school heartthrob Han Yan likes Shi Xi?]
"Bang!" Han Yan slammed his fist on the table. "I like Master? How could that be? I admire Master. These bastards."
"Little fairy, more and more people are criticizing you online now."
Shi Xi looked at the comments below the forum.
[Poor Hua Rui, Shi Xi is so cruel.]
[That lecherous Zhou Jin, could he be having an affair with Shi Xi? They look like they're having an affair.]
[Shi Xi has an ambiguous relationship with both Han, the school heartthrob, and Zhou Jin; it's truly disgusting.]
[We strongly demand that Shi Xi's status as school beauty be revoked. Such a heartless and fickle person does not deserve to be school beauty.]
[Call the student council to revoke Shi Xi's status as the school beauty.]
[Revoke Shi Xi's status as the school beauty.]
...
[Zhou Jin, get out of school! Pervert, get out of school!]
[Zhou Jin, get out of No. 1 Middle School.]
...
"Such a well-organized formation, someone's stirring things up." Han Yan barely suppressed the urge to hit someone.
"Zhou Jin, stop looking. They're just being nosy." Shi Xi snatched Zhou Jin's phone away.
"Oh my god, fairy! All the posts and comments about you online have disappeared!" Qin Xue exclaimed in disbelief.
Shi Xi noticed a new text message on her phone.
Di Chenxiao: [Xixi, don't be afraid. There won't be any more negative comments about you online.]
Shi Xi: [You deleted it.]
Di Chenxiao: [Hmm~]
