Chapter 583: Qiao Chen Really Caused Huge Trouble
Qiao Nian saw how upset she was. She was squatting on the ground, tugging at her own sleeves aggressively as she cried uncontrollably. And yet, Qiao Nian was not moved. She eyed her coldly and simply said, “You’re from Class A, and you’ve been in this class since the first year. Let’s ignore what you posted about me on the forum. For the sake of blowing this matter up, you deliberately mentioned that our classmates ostracized you. Did you even consider how others would feel?”
Wu Jie stopped crying. She looked up at Qiao Nian, almost stunned. Tears still filled her face and she was now biting her lip, unable to say anything.
She thought about how Jiang Tingting had changed seats for her in class.
And how they would always invite her along when they were having gatherings or meals.
She remembered how she was having very bad cramps when her period came during physical education classes, and how the girls in class would hurry to the store to get her pads, while the guys would help her to apply for leave with the male teacher. Qiao Nian had even taken her to the school clinic to get some medicine…
This time, her tears were genuine.
She covered her face, too ashamed to face anyone. “I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”
Qiao Nian looked at her with annoyance, her eyes deeper than one could tell. She said calmly, “You shouldn’t be apologizing to me, but to the classmates and teachers who’ve always cared for you!”
However, when it came to apologies, they often came too late. It was meaningless now.
Nobody would forgive another unconditionally. Even the deepest relationships would not tolerate insincere acts. Some things, once lost, were gone for good.
Wu Jie cried miserably.
Her mother was worried that she’d cry too hard that she would be out of breath. Not bothering to find fault with Shen Jingyan and Qiao Chen at a time like this, she quickly went over to pat Wu Jie on the back.
Ye Wangchuan stopped in his tracks momentarily when he walked past the middle-aged man in a suit. He looked at him without much expression, but with an incredibly oppressive look in his eyes. “Since you’re not intending to settle Wei Qi’s matter privately, then we’ll go public.”
“Young Master Ye, didn’t we agree on…” Shen Jingyan was taken aback.
“Back then, I did tell Old Master that I’d take a step back so we won’t make things too ugly.” He paused for a second and glanced past Qiao Chen with his beautiful eyes as he fiddled with the bead bracelet on his wrist. His eyes were slightly red with ferocity. “But since you guys are not worried about things becoming ugly, then there’s no need for me to go on with my wishful thinking and save you the embarrassment.”
Shen Jingyan went pale, unable to say a word.
It was embarrassing enough that Wei Qi was to be jailed!
It was precisely because they found his incarceration to be such an embarrassment that they pulled some strings to settle this. They contacted Old Master Ye and made use of the connections with him to negotiate for a private settlement of Wei Qi’s matter.
Wei Qi would still have to be imprisoned, but his trial and sentence would not have to be made public. After all, for a family like theirs, it was best to keep such news under wraps.
And yet, because of Qiao Chen’s mess, the agreement that they fought so hard to come to was entirely ruined!
They were in the wrong in the first place, so even if the other party did not want to do them a favor, there was nothing they could say!
Ye Wangchuan didn’t see how he reacted. He said, “I will be contacting Cai Gang. When the sentence is out, the news that has to be reported will be reported as usual, and the procedures will be carried out as expected.”
Shen Jingyan didn’t expect this matter to make it onto the news. He got flustered and wanted to give it one last shot by talking it out with Qiao Nian. He walked towards her, but when he looked up, he was faced with her back view. She had left…
