Chapter 87: Chapter 87: How Can You Be So Cheap?

Lin Shuyue showed a suspicious expression, “Really?”

With a gentle smile, Su Lianxi replied, “Whether it is true or not, you have to believe it from the bottom of your heart!”

Lin Shuyue’s gaze sharpened as she bit her lip and said, “I understand. I’ll explain it to your father first!”

“Yeah.” Su Lianxi nodded, clutching her phone. “I need to leak this news to the media.”

Lin Shuyue suddenly stopped in her tracks and asked hesitantly, “Lianxi, you need to explain it to Yichen quickly too.”

“I know,” Su Lianxi said with a confident smile.

Between her and Su Zixi, there was no doubt that Yichen would believe her.

…

By noon, the news continued to ferment.

Someone from the Film Academy had already mentioned Su Lianxi’s name, but soon after, an insider claimed that the woman in the photos was actually named Su Zixi, Su Lianxi’s sister. Su Zixi, allegedly envious of her sister for getting the opportunity, intended to sabotage her, confidently attributing the clothes of the woman in the photos as evidence.

Instantly, various opinions burst into the air. Due to the high interest in the film, the message about this fierce rivalry for the female lead role remained hot.

Su Zixi had originally decided not to care, but when she went to the cafeteria to eat, she noticed the way her classmates looked at her had drastically changed.

After getting her meal and sitting down, her classmates began leaving with their trays as if she were some sort of plague.

It was then that Su Zixi realized “the innocent will clear themselves” was just an empty phrase; how could others understand her innocence if they didn’t know her?

She had always been low-key at school, but because she was academically excellent and attractive, she had always been somewhat famous. Now, with such news, her dream of a peaceful campus life instantly burst like a bubble!

Su Zixi clenched her fists involuntarily.

After eating, Su Zixi was about to head back to her dorm to rest when she suddenly received a call from Su Guo’an.

Su Zixi picked up calmly, only to be met with a barrage of scolding.

“… Zhixi, you just can’t stand to see your sister doing well, can you?” Su Guo’an raged, “After the last time with Master He, I thought maybe I misjudged you, but here you are seducing investors! How can you be so low! I, Su Guo’an, don’t have a daughter like you!”

Su Zixi was stunned by the scolding, and just as she tried to retort, Su Guo’an had already hung up first.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Su Zixi felt her head buzzing.

For some reason, she started laughing suddenly. Perhaps because she had reached the peak of disappointment, she found everything absurdly hilarious.

At this point, she couldn’t just ignore it even if she wanted to!

Su Zixi pressed her lips tightly and turned to walk out of the campus.

********

Su Lianxi sat on the living room couch with her face stained with tears.

On the other side, Su Guo’an was stomping around furiously. After scolding Su Zixi, he felt much better and turned to Su Lianxi, saying, “Lianxi, don’t be upset. Dad will definitely get justice for you!”

Sobbing, Su Lianxi said, “I don’t understand why sister would do such a thing… It’s all my fault. If I weren’t with Yichen, she wouldn’t hate me…”

“Your relationship with Yichen has nothing to do with this, even if she’s angry that you took Yichen away from her, she shouldn’t have treated you like this!” Su Guo’an said, still fuming.

Lin Shuyue hugged Su Lianxi in her arms, feeling incredibly sorry for her, “Our Lianxi was doing just fine, and then someone splashed dirty water on her; it’s infuriating!”
