Chapter 875

True or False Heiress: Becoming a Vicious Supporting Female Character (38)

She found herself subconsciously wanting to go to the restroom with her desk mate. Why did Chu Xuan always come and go alone before? Was Chu Xuan brave? But if she was brave, why did she cry softly and weakly, relying on others to stand up for her?

Wang Shasha had a headache from thinking too much. When she returned to the classroom and saw Chu Xuan sitting at her seat with an ice drink on her eyes, she pursed her lips and walked over, saying, “Xuanxuan, are you okay?”

Chu Xuan shook her head, leaving Wang Shasha unsure of what to say. The whole class was watching, and she felt like anything she said would become a subject of ridicule. Their best friendship had already become a joke. Unless they remained close in the future and let their actions speak for themselves, there was no use in saying anything.

She simply said, “That’s good,” and returned to her own seat. She took out her phone and sent a message to Chu Xuan, explaining that her expression at that time was just a startled reaction without any hidden meaning. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have helped with makeup removal after school.

Chu Xuan quickly replied to her message: [Silly, what kind of relationship do we have? I feel disgusted with myself, how could I blame you for your expression? I haven’t even thanked you for taking me in yesterday. You’ve done so much for me, things that others don’t understand at all. Don’t overthink it.]

Along with the message, she sent a cute emoticon, giving a lighthearted feeling.

Wang Shasha breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved. She and Chu Xuan had always been close. If they started causing a scene or giving each other unpleasant looks in class, it would be embarrassing. By clarifying things through a message, their interactions would naturally return to normal.

She straightened up and took her book, inadvertently meeting Chu Xiang’s gaze. Chu Xiang was looking back at her, then glanced at Chu Xuan, with a momentary look of confusion before turning back to do her exercises.

Wang Shasha considered herself to be in an opposing camp with Chu Xiang, so whenever she saw her actions, her nerves would tighten, trying to guess what she meant.

Perhaps she had been thinking too much these past few days, or perhaps Chu Xiang’s repeated questioning had influenced her thinking, but she suddenly felt like she understood Chu Xiang’s confusion. Chu Xiang must be wondering why she and Chu Xuan exchanged private messages whenever something was going on between them instead of discussing it openly in front of the whole class. And when it came to Chu Xuan and Chu Xiang’s matters, Chu Xuan always approached Chu Xiang, either feeling guilty or wronged, and explained it in public.

She also had a question in her mind. Yes, why? If Chu Xuan was doing it for Chu Xiang’s sake or didn’t want their sisterhood to be discussed by their classmates, why did they have to talk privately? Weren’t they riding the same car back home before? Couldn’t they have discussed it without messaging on the car?

She reopened the forum post she had read before, realizing that she had been too preoccupied with fear and hadn’t paid close attention. Now, as she looked at the details revealed in those posts, she felt a chilling sensation in her limbs because the more she read, the more it seemed to make sense, as if these were already the truth.

As she scrolled down, she came across anonymous replies from her classmates, and her heart was filled with mixed emotions.

[My stance is simple: It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but difficult to go from luxury to frugality. Chu Xuan still lives in the Chu residence, still carries the Chu surname. I refuse to believe in her character. After enjoying 17 years of glory, shouldn’t she give it all up?]

[In this day and age, is there still anyone who believes in the innocence of a pure white lotus? Don’t all girls understand? The more innocent and pure one appears, the more scheming they are. Haven’t you seen palace intrigue dramas?]

[Who exactly is this Wang Shasha? She’s always jumping up and down, defending Chu Xuan. Turns out she’s like this behind the scenes. Is the Wang family so inferior to the Chu family? Is she just a bootlicker?]

[Although the forum is anonymous, we are all from the same school, so let’s maintain some civility. Maybe Chu Xuan’s good personality is just a result of strict family upbringing. She’s been a cherished and sheltered child since she was young. Is it abnormal for her to be more innocent?]

[Oh, spare me. Do you think I got in here just based on my grades without your noble sponsorship? There are plenty of rich second-generation and famous second-generation students in our class. The richer the family, the more they emphasize cultivating EQ. True, kind, and beautiful? They were raised to wait for others to count their money. Turns out Chu Xuan is the heir to the Chu family. By promoting her kindness and beauty, isn’t the Chu family trying to bankrupt themselves?]

[Hey, now they’re practically bankrupt. I heard that the Chu family doesn’t favor Chu Xiang. It’s uncertain who the heir will be in the future. Who knows, maybe the Chu family will change their surname to Chen.]

[I bet you a popsicle that 99% of what’s said in the post is true. And let’s give a shoutout to the genius who hacked into the forum and pinned the post. Nobody can delete it. That’s impressive. It’s like a public execution!]

The campus gossip was as lively as ever, and compared to the image of the school belle being kind and beautiful, classmates naturally preferred to see the hidden agenda and exposed truth. There was no particular reason, it was just the instinctive enjoyment of twists and thrilling revelations.

The incident spread throughout the campus and attracted the attention of the school administration. Just the night before, the principal received instructions from the boss to take care of Chu Xiang, so upon seeing these posts, he immediately ordered an investigation. Both Chu Xiang and Chu Xuan became the center of attention among the teachers and students. It seemed that Chu Xuan’s future endeavors would be incredibly challenging.

It was like returning to the entertainment industry, where every action and word was scrutinized. Chu Xuan has to be mindful of her speech and expressions at all times. However, the impact on Chu Xiang was minimal since she has the “Qiankun Mirror.” She has a cheat, after all!
