“Zhu Wen, what right do you have to treat me like this?!” Shi Jing originally thought that Zhu Wen was just angry at her and blamed her for meeting Zhang Cheng behind his back that day. That was why he had not gone to the hospital to see her for so many days.
However, she never expected Zhu Wen to have taken a fancy to Shi Man during this period of time and even throw her away like trash.
She had lost to Shi Man again. How could she take this lying down? She immediately pounced over crazily, wishing she could tear Shi Man’s usually calm face apart.
Zhu Wen stood between the two of them in shock. His cheek was scratched by her and immediately turned into a bloody mark.
Seeing the blood under her nails, Shi Jing was stunned. Only then did her rationality return.
Realizing what she had just done, she immediately retracted her hand in fear and shook her head helplessly and pitifully. “I didn’t do it on purpose. I’m sorry, don’t blame me. You forced me. You forced me.”
“Shi Jing, get lost!” Zhu Wen cursed angrily. He reached out to wipe the blood off his face and grimaced in pain.
Shi Man hugged her shoulders and watched the show calmly, not regarding herself as the female lead of the event.
Shi Jing hated Shi Man behaving this way the most. She did not know what was wrong with her. Ever since she committed suicide, she suddenly seemed to have become a different person. She always had a high and mighty attitude and no longer looked silly when facing others. Instead, she was so intelligent that no one could discover her thoughts.
However, now that Shi Jing had made a fool of herself in front of so many people, she only wanted Shi Man to pay the price no matter how afraid she was. At the end of the day, as long as Shi Man lived well, Shi Jing would never be able to feel good.
An innocent tear fell from the corner of her eye. She slowly turned around and was about to leave in a panic and helplessness. Like a victim, she tried her best to gain the sympathy of the surrounding students.
Indeed, many people were blinded by her acting skills and really thought that Shi Man had bullied her sister and snatched her sister’s boyfriend. They immediately took out their phones indignantly and took a photo of the three of them standing together, waiting to post it online with a condemning post later.
Shi Man saw her thoughts and leaned against the wall of the corridor with a smile. “Shi Jing, do you know Zhang Cheng?”
Shi Jing, who was still immersed in the sad atmosphere, suddenly stopped in her tracks. A trace of fear flashed across her eyes. “1,1 don’t know him.”
“Is that so?” Shi Man smiled calmly. “Don’t tell me you really think I haven’t investigated why you were hospitalized? If you want to gain sympathy so much, why don’t you take off your scarf and let everyone know why you didn’t come to school some time ago?”
“I…” Shi Jing looked up in fear and met pairs of probing and teasing eyes.
It was undoubtedly the stupidest behavior to show your vulnerability in front of strangers with no empathy. It was not a good idea to seek sympathy from others to stabilize her position because sympathy was always a term used by a superior to an ant below.
No matter how pitiful Shi Jing appeared, she was just a joke in the eyes of others.
Shi Man did not intend to let her off this time. She walked slowly to her side and pulled off her silk scarf. The bruises and purple marks on Shi Jing’s neck were immediately exposed to everyone.
“Heavens, did she get beaten up? Could it be that Zhu Wen abused her?”
“I think she must have done something shameful for someone to take revenge, right?”
“Hey! I know that Zhang Cheng Shi Man was talking about. I remember that he’s Yuan Dong’s cousin. We had dinner together in the past!”
The voices around her entered her ears without hesitation. Shi Jing’s face turned pale. She was afraid that others would know about her and Zhang Cheng. Under her nervousness, she suddenly thought of the night she was almost strangled to death by Zhang Cheng and screamed uncontrollably.
The ear-piercing and sharp shouts were magnified in the corridor. Someone couldn’t take it anymore and shouted something, but it was covered by Shi Jing’s voice.
It was not until she was tired of screaming that she fell to the ground in exhaustion and panted heavily.
“Are you done?” Shi Man’s patience had run thin. The phone in her pocket vibrated. She knew that her brother must have been waiting anxiously.
She grabbed Su Tang’s hand and walked to Shi Jing’s side with a cold expression. She warned her mercilessly in a voice that everyone could hear clearly, “You’ve long been chased out of the Shi family. You were fooling around with Zhang Cheng and other men outside. You have nothing to do with me or the Shi family. To tell you the truth, I don’t like Zhu Wen. If you like him, keep him well and stay far away.”
With that, she walked down the stairs without looking back, leaving the students looking at one another.
There was too much information in those few words just now. They could not help but widen their eyes and stare at Shi Jing.
It turned out that this person had actually been chased away by the Shi family long ago and had nothing to do with the Shi family anymore.. Then wouldn’t her previous arrogance in front of them be akin to deceiving her classmates like they were fools?
