World Eight. Her deskmate (50)
Xue Xue noticed his reaction, but did not stop because of it.
âYou may think that it doesnât matter if your reputation is dirty if you wonât be going to mix in the entertainment circle in the future, but think about what you went through in your sophomore year of high school.â
âMalice doesnât go away just because you ignore it, unless you fix it or make yourself strong enough.â
Every word Xue Xue said pierced Su Xiangnanâs heart like a needle.
He knew that every word Xue Xue said was right.
âIf you donât explain, everyone will think that half of what they know is the truth.â
âThe person who instigates malice behind the scenes and spreads rumors will get the results he wants, smugly believing that his actions couldnât have been more correct, while the two people responsible for this fact, your mother and father, one of whom has already passed away, will still be whipped by the world with vicious words, while the other man will continue to enjoy his life in peace. â
Sue Xiangnan turned violently.
âStop it!â
The boy raised his arms and looked terrifying with his eyes widened. However, Xue Xue still looked at him with a calm expression and did not flinch.
âIf you donât care about this, then I have nothing more to say.â Xue Xue paused, then spoke out her guess. âIf I guess correctly⦠there should be other things written in the letter that aunt left for you, right?â â
âSomething like⦠she hopes you can find the courage to reconcile with the past?â
Because of these words, Su Xiangnan suddenly felt all his strength drain away, like a deflated balloon. Sadness, anger, pain, confusion⦠all these emotions were released and dissolved into the air.
âYou know what you need to do, what you should do, and what you can do.â
âDonât be afraid to make decisions, and donât be afraid to face unknown results.â
Xue Xue stood back, and the evening sky was dyed with orange from light to dark, layers and layers of clouds exaggeratedly rolled, as if immersed in colorful pigments, so that the ordinary day through a little unusual spooky.
âThink carefully these two days.â Xue Xue paused. âIf you need me, remember that I will always be here.â
âAnd you said before that you have no home⦠No.â
Smiling slightly, the black hair blown by the wind blurred the girlâs face, but can not blur her soft gaze, with a very strong penetrating force, hit into Su Xiangnanâs heart.
âYou still have me.â
âI will give you a home.â
On the way home, Xue Xue received a message from Chen Rong.
Chen Rong: âHow is it?â
Xue Xue: âHe doesnât agree for now.â
Chen Rong: âHmm, just as we expected.â
Chen Rong: âItâs alright, Iâve already contacted the relevant parties. Based on the current situation, that person shouldnât have much evidence. Now we just have to continue the stalemate. The troublesome part is that public opinion is overwhelmingly against us. I also received news that someone higher up has begun to pay attention to the negative impact of Su Xiangnanâs actions on the youth at school.â
Upon seeing Chen Rongâs message,, Xue Xueâs pupils shrank suddenly.
Chen Rong: âThereâs still no conclusion as of now, but try to persuade Su Xiangnan as much as possible. The longer this drags on, the more unfavorable it becomes.â
Xue Xue: âI understand.â
Chen Rong: âAnd those points about your classmates and the ones who work with Su Xiangnanâ¦â
Xue Xue: âEn, leave it to me.â
Chen Rong: âOkay, if you have any questions, let me know and Iâll have someone talk to you.â
Xue Xue responded with a sticker.
After waiting for a few seconds and seeing no new activity in the chat box, Xue Xue started calling those classmates who had a favorable impression of Su Xiangnan and held good intentions towards him.
The first one was Fang Qingqiao.
Because she had to go to a few places, Xue Xue didnât get home until close to nine oâclock.
She had informed her parents in advance and quickly had a meal outside. Unexpectedly, both of them, who usually would have already returned to their bedrooms at this time to prepare for bed, were still in the living room.
âDad? Mom? Are you still watching TV?â
As soon as Xue Xue made a sound, the two adults immediately turned to look at her in perfect agreement.
Xue Xue realized that Xue Jiahui and Huang Mei were waiting for her.
Her intuition told her that it was most likely related to Su Xiangnanâs matter.
Although Xue Jiahui and Huang Mei were middle-aged people who didnât like to surf the Internet, their colleagues were not like this. As far as Xue Xue knew, the few people who were close to Huang Mei were all star chasers, and one was an important member of a popular fresh meat fan club.
It can be imagined that with the news about Su Xiangnan being so big this time, they wouldnât be completely unaware.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
However, unexpectedly, after exchanging a glance, Xue Jiahui and Huang Mei didnât mention Su Xiangnan.
âAhem! Although youâre already an adult, you canât disappear all day without a trace and only send a few messages.â Clearing his throat, Xue Jiahuiâs face turned serious as he said in a low voice, âDo you know how worried your mom and I have been?â
Xue Xue blinked.
She wanted to say that she had remembered to let them know she was safe, but thinking that her parents were also worried about her, she softened her voice and said in a spoiled manner, âI know, Mom, Dad. I was really in a hurry today because of something, but I wonât do it again next time.â
When Xue Xue said this, the calm Xue Jiahui suddenly slapped the handle of the chair, startling her.
âNext time?â The man frowned. âDo you still want a next time? Do you knowâ¦â
âOkay, okay, the child is back. Why are you so angry?â Huang Mei quickly interrupted her husband. âDidnât you say that you would take a bath when your daughter comes back? Hurry up.â
Xue Jiahui did not move.
Huang Mei persuaded and cajoled her husband several times, saying that she would clarify the matter with Xue Xue, and only then did the man go upstairs in a huff.
Before going upstairs, he didnât forget to give his daughter a stern look.
Although it was not appropriate, looking at his fatherâs childish look, Xue Xue couldnât help but burst into laughter after making sure that the other party could not see her.
âLaughing?â Upon hearing her daughterâs laughter, Huang Mei turned her head and glared at her angrily. âYou still have the nerve to laugh!â
