After Qiao Weimin had given her instructions and left, Qiao Hongye's mood was quite irritable.
She had originally planned to go on a spring excursion this week with her friends. In the end, her time for leisure and enjoyment was ruined all because of Jing Yunzhao. Especially when she thought about how Jing Yunzhao had used two hundred thousand on a stupid jar, she felt depressed.
"Hongye, why do you look so down? Did something happen at home?" After Qiao Hongye returned to school, she looked visibly depressed. With her gloomy expression, she instantly attracted a circle of attention.
Qiao Hongye pressed her lips flat together and shook her head. Her unwillingness to talk made the students around her want to help her even more instead.
"Did Jing Yunzhao say something to your dad?" someone asked.
Qiao Hongye's circle all "knew" that Jing Yunzhao was a turtle dove occupying a magpie's nest. [1] They also "knew" that she was a scheming girl and would often bully Qiao Hongye at home. However, Qiao Hongye was kind and was willing to endure and suffocate everything in her heart. If Jing Yunzhao hadn't affected Qiao Hongye like that, no one would know who the school's number one would be!
[1] (The phrase "turtle dove occupying a magpie's nest" means that someone has unrightfully taken the place of someone else.)
Qiao Hongye hurriedly shook her head, her face full of caution, "It's actually not like that... Dad is worried about Jie-jie's safety. All of you know that she has run away from home, right? Yet, we don't even have a clue of where she lives. Our family is worried that she might meet someone bad and just can't stop worrying."
"So it was this? If you didn't mention it, I would've forgotten. Didn't Jing Yunzhao arrive at school together with Su Chu and Gan Jinchen the other day? They're actually living together. I saw the three of them coming out of Cozy Garden. On the way, Jing Yunzhao was chatting and laughing with Gan Jinchen, how flirty!" commented a girl.
Because of Qiao Hongye, the friends surrounding her all had a bone-deep hatred towards Jing Yunzhao. They couldn't believe that someone as evil as Jing Yunzhao could exist.
Qiao Hongye was so stunned that she choked on her stifled breath. There must be something between Jing Yunzhao and Gan Jinchen!
Gan Jinchen, as one of the school's princes, attracted quite a lot of attention. Qiao Hongye and Gan Jinchen were both a part of the student union, but Qiao Hongye had never seen Gan Jinchen give her any special treatment. She originally thought that Gan Jinchen just had an unreasonable and unfriendly personality, so she didn't think much of it. After all, even though Gan Jinchen didn't like her, she had many others who did. However, seeing Gan Jinchen getting along with Jing Yunzhao made her upset.
How was she lacking compared to Jing Yunzhao? Why did Gan Jinchen notice Jing Yunzhao but not her?
Jing Yunzhao indeed possessed a good-looking face, but it was obviously cold and distant. Didn't men like the cute and gentle kind of girls?
Qiao Hongye's face was a bit pale, "They live together? But wh-what if they have something going on? Oh, no. If dad knew, he would be worried to death. My sister's still young, what if..."
Qiao Honyge shut her mouth halfway through the sentence.
But the others naturally filled in the blanks in their owns heads.
Gan Jinchen was so handsome, how could Jing Yunzhao not be willing?
They were still so young. What if she gets pregnant?
They naturally ignored the Su Chu who was also living with them.
Seeing the other people's faces turning green and then dark, Qiao Hongye quickly changed her words, "Don't assume things. I only said that on an impulse! My sister would kill me if she knew."
Instantly, the crowd tied the word "violent" to Jing Yunzhao. Everyone turned silent immediately. However, their sense of justice had all been ignited. Thus, Qiao Hongye had achieved the result that she wanted.
This rumor spread quickly. After lunch, the people in mention Jing Yunzhao and Gan Jinchen, had already heard of it.
Gan Jinchen was both embarrassed and angry. Saying that he had made Jing Yunzhao pregnant, that was just complete nonsense!
He had only said a few sentences to Jing Yunzhao!
