Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Qiao’s mother kept using her eyes to signal Qiao Baiyue that Old Master Mu was still around, so she should perform well.
Suddenly, Qiao Boyue’s phone rang from her pocket, and she put down her chopsticks. “It should be a message from the school teacher. I’ll go check it,” she said.
Qiao’s mother wanted to leave a good impression of Qiao Boyue in front of Old Master Mu and smiled, saying, “Boyue is the president of the school’s student council and often helps the teachers with various documents.”
“It’s good to get involved in university activities,” nodded Old Master Mu.
Qiao Boyue checked her phone, but found no messages. She frowned and tried to tap on the text message, but the phone screen suddenly froze, and then a video popped up.
“Mmm… ah… um…” Indescribable sounds came from the phone. Old Master Mu’s face instantly froze, and Qiao’s mother, who was about to praise Qiao Boyue again, also froze. The entire dining hall fell silent, as everyone looked at Qiao Boyue with shocked and disapproving eyes. No way… How could she be watching something like this during a meal?
Qiao Boyue was shocked and almost threw the phone away. She wanted to turn it off, but found that she couldn’t. Pressing the power button didn’t work either! The video kept playing.
“Mom, Grandpa Mu, it’s not what you think… I…” Qiao Boyue’s face turned red, and her words became incoherent.
“There are many viruses on phones nowadays, it’s all due to viruses…” Qiao’s mother had never been so embarrassed before.
Old Master Mu couldn’t even eat anymore. Regardless of whether Qiao Boyue did it intentionally or not, it was too disgusting and he had lost his appetite. He shook his head, feeling very disappointed in Qiao Boyue.
“Grandpa Mu!” Seeing Old Master Mu angrily leaving, Qiao Boyue panicked. Qiao’s mother was also in a panic and called out to Old Master Mu a few times, but he ignored her. She then looked at Qiao Boyue again and said, “Turn it off quickly!”
“I can’t turn it off!” Qiao Boyue threw her phone to the ground and stomped on it, but it was useless. The video kept playing, and that disgusting sound continued. Qiao Boyue was on the verge of a breakdown and stomped on it a few more times!
Finally, the disgusting sound disappeared, and a line of bloody words appeared on the phone screen: “Little sister, don’t meddle next time. This is just a small warning.” Behind the text, there was also an image of a bloody knife.
…
The next day, Qiao Boyue went to school with red eyes. She hadn’t slept all night. She had never felt so ashamed in her life! Even the servants at home looked at her differently!
Qiao Boyue had gone to the police station to inquire, and Zhang Lili was still detained. The Zhang family had gone bankrupt overnight, and Zhang Lili’s father had fled after donating money. During an argument with her mother, Zhang Lili accidentally fell down the stairs and was currently in the hospital, with a high chance of not waking up.
Qiao Boyue felt that all of this was related to Shen Jing!
Shen Jing stepped into the classroom, feeling the resentful gaze from Qiao Boyue. She raised her eyebrows, walked to her seat, and sat down calmly.
Qiao Boyue became even angrier as she looked at Shen Jing’s composed demeanor. Shen Jing remained calm even after doing something wrong. Qiao Boyue had underestimated Shen Jing before! But she couldn’t confront Shen Jing. She couldn’t just tell others that her phone was controlled by Shen Jing and played a dirty video, right?
“Qiao Boyue, what’s wrong? Your eyes are so red. Did you not sleep well last night?” A classmate noticed that something was off with Qiao Boyue and asked with concern.
Qiao Boyue replied, “It’s because the art festival is coming up. I stayed up late last night painting, so that’s why…”
The classmate sighed, “Boyue, you’re working too hard. You don’t need to push yourself so much. Your Chinese painting skills are unmatched in the entire university. Honestly, it’s strange that Shen Jing actually had the courage to compete with you in the same project. She’s not afraid of embarrassing herself.”
Another classmate chimed in, “That’s right, Qiao Boyue. You will definitely be the champion of the art festival!”
Listening to their words, Qiao Boyue’s expression finally improved slightly. She nodded and said, “My master knows Chairman Qin. Chairman Qin is coming to Jingcheng today, and my master wants to introduce me to Chairman Qin. That’s why I worked harder…”. As she spoke, she discreetly looked at Shen Jing, who was engrossed in her phone.
In an instant, Qiao Boyue felt deflated. She had sought help from Shen Jing’s aunt, Lu Xuemei, hoping to save Zhang Lili and make Shen Jing suffer a setback. However, she didn’t expect that Lu Xuemei couldn’t even control Shen Jing. And when Shen Jing heard the name “Chairman Qin,” she remained indifferent. What exactly was she planning? Weren’t people who practiced Chinese arts supposed to admire Chairman Qin a lot?
