Chapter 150: Jiang Weiwei’s Public Apology
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Murong Qiao watched as Jiang Weiwei ran out to carry out her activities, class, and eat as usual.
At night, Murong Qiao, Yang Xin, and Zheng Yue returned to the dormitory together. They saw Jiang Weiwei sitting on the bed and crying.
Usually, when they saw Jiang Weiwei crying like this, Yang Xin and Zheng Yue would definitely ask Jiang Weiwei about her well-being and ask her what had happened with concern.
But now that the two of them knew that it was Jiang Weiwei who had defamed Murong Qiao, they naturally wouldn’t be nice to her.
They wanted to know why Jiang Weiwei was targeting Murong Qiao.
“Isn’t someone asking for trouble?” As soon as Yang Xin entered, she deliberately raised her voice and said, “She still has the cheek to cry here. You haven’t even cried after being defamed and slammed by her. As the instigator, what right does she have to cry?”
These words were obviously meant for Jiang Weiwei. Even Zheng Yue stood at the side and frowned slightly. Clearly, she did not like Jiang Weiwei’s actions. “In my opinion, Qiaoqiao didn’t do anything to you, right?” Yang Xin didn’t understand. “Why did you do such a thing?”
Although Jiang Weiwei and Murong Qiao often interacted, Yang Xin had never felt that there was any unresolvable hatred between the two of them. She had never even seen a little conflict.
Jiang Weiwei heard Yang Xin’s sarcastic words and hid on her bed. However, when she heard Yang Xin ask her why she did this, she couldn’t suppress the grievance in her heart.
“It’s all because she stole my limelight!” Jiang Weiwei finally couldn’t help but say after being asked by Yang Xin. “Ever since Murong Qiao became famous, everyone has been paying attention to her!”
Jiang Weiwei was furious. After being asked by Yang Xin, she revealed everything, including why she was targeting Murong Qiao.
She spoke boldly as if she felt that she had been bullied and looked very aggrieved.
Unfortunately, Yang Xin was on Murong Qiao’s side. She only felt that Jiang Weiwei’s words were just to gain sympathy and excuse herself. Moreover, why would she do this because of such a small matter? It made her feel that she could no longer continue to interact with people like Jiang Weiwei. Otherwise, she would probably become the second Murong Qiao one day.
Zheng Yue looked at Jiang Weiwei crying and stood behind Murong Qiao without saying anything.
Compared to Yang Xin’s angry condemnation, Zheng Yue was too silent. She stood at the side obediently and looked at Jiang Weiwei. One could tell from her expression that she did not agree with Jiang Weiwei.
“I really don’t understand why you’re surrounding her. Even if her results are real, Murong Qiao is just a fake Young Lady. Doesn’t it count as lying?” After venting her emotions, Jiang Weiwei sneered at Murong Qiao, as if she had found some confidence.
“She can’t give you any benefits like I can, nor would she give you branded cosmetics.” The more Jiang Weiwei spoke, the more she felt that she was right. “Other than the numbers on her results, what else is worth your attention?” Jiang Weiwei looked at Murong Qiao, who was standing there. Seeing that Murong Qiao did not refute her words, she felt that she had hit the nail on the head and a smug smile appeared on her face.
“To put it bluntly, she’s just using the Murong family’s name to gain benefits for herself. She’s just being pretentious. What right does she have to criticize me here?” She said what she was thinking, clearly showing her disdain for Murong Qiao.
“No matter how much a fake Young Lady pretends, she’s just a fake. It will never be real,” Jiang Weiwei said word by word.
However, Yang Xin was furious by the other party’s words. As if she didn’t know her mistake, she still said that it was Murong Qiao’s problem. How long has it been? Had she forgotten everything she had done on the forum?
She was about to mock her when she heard Murong Qiao’s voice.
“It doesn’t matter if I’m the daughter of a rich family or if I’m related to the Murong family,” Murong Qiao said, staring at Jiang Weiwei with her dark eyes. “These are not reasons for you to hurt me.”
Yang Xin nodded in agreement, feeling that Murong Qiao was right.
These were all inducements. Jiang Weiwei was narrow-minded enough to split hairs over it. Just because of this, she treated Murong Qiao as an enemy and did these things. How were those things even related to her actions?
“I was the one behind the forum expose,” Murong Qiao said suddenly. She wanted everyone to know Jiang Weiwei’s true colors.
After saying that, she looked at Jiang Weiwei with a cold glint in her eyes, like a sharp blade.
“I’ve never thought of stealing the limelight from you.” Murong Qiao continued and looked at Jiang Weiwei casually. “I’ve never desired any of the things you care about.”
Strictly speaking, Jiang Weiwei was the one who started it. She was merely the victim.
Murong Qiao spoke slowly and enunciated every word clearly and looked at Jiang Weiwei with disdain, as if she was pitying her.
“Don’t measure other people’s pursuits with your own. What you want should be obtained by yourself, not by discrediting others.” She crossed her arms in front of her chest and stared at Jiang Weiwei as she continued. “Do you think that if you discredit me, those people’s eyes will fall on you?
No.
Even without me, there will be another person. In short, it won’t be you,” Murong Qiao asserted, feeling that Jiang Weiwei’s actions were extremely ridiculous. “But now, I’ve already given you everything you want. I’ve made you the focus of the entire school.”
Now, everytime Jiang Weiwei steps out of the room, she would be baptized by everyone’s gaze. Everyone would avoid her. In a sense, she had “really” gotten what she wanted.
However, when Jiang Weiwei heard Murong Qiao’s tone as if she was giving her a gift, she felt that she was insulting her. She even said it so sarcastically.
“You don’t have to thank me, Jiang Weiwei.” Murong Qiao smiled when she saw her humiliated expression.
“Apologize and get lost.” Murong Qiao gave an ultimatum. “Do as 1 say.
Otherwise, I’ll expose everything that others don’t know about you and make you the headline of the city.”
“I’m sorry.” Jiang Weiwei bit her lip.
After saying that, Jiang Weiwei planned to leave, but Murong Qiao stopped her. What she wanted wasn’t this.
“What I want is a public apology on the forum.” Murong Qiao made it clear. She had never felt that she was someone to be trifled with. “If you can’t do it, I have other ways to make you do it.”
Murong Qiao’s tone was very calm, but Jiang Weiwei could hear the obvious threat in her tone.
Her face stiffened. When she heard Murong Qiao’s words, she immediately thought of what had happened today, so she could only agree aggrievedly. Only then did Murong Qiao let her go.
Not long after, Jiang Weiwei published another apology article using the account that defamed Murong Qiao previously and admitted her mistake.
After this incident, Jiang Weiwei couldn’t stay in dormitory room 316 anymore and left.
Murong Qiao and the other two welcomed a new roommate called Leng Yan. Her name sounded like a boy’s but after meeting her, they realized that she was a gender-neutral beauty and had a good personality.
During their daily interactions, Leng Yan took good care of the others and they got along quite well.
Yang Xin looked at Murong Qiao and then at Leng Yan on the other side of her. She then heaved a long sigh of relief.
Without Jiang Weiwei’s presence in the dormitory, the air felt much fresher..
