On the surface, she was modest and polite, indicating that she had missed the class due to her illness and needed to make up for it as soon as possible. She also took the opportunity to inquire about the recent large-scale gossip in the school.
Mr. Wei, who was very well-established in the industry, had just finished his speech in the school that day, and it was a pity that she missed it.
Jiang Man was not interested in it at all, but she looked disappointed. “It’s all my fault. I should have gone back to school yesterday, but my fian- my mom was always worried about me, so she insisted that I delay it for another day.”
She almost said the words ‘fiancé’, so she immediately took it back as fast as she could.
Jiang Man made up her mind that the fewer people knew that she had a fiancé, the better it would be for her to search for more resources.
Another student mentioned two major events that had happened recently.
One was that Fu Jiuxiao from the Fu family had returned to the school as a ‘senior’ to give a speech, and the other was gossip about the school hunk, Su Yang.
When Jiang Man heard the former, her eyes could not help but light up. She immediately felt that such a performance would defeat her good impression and immediately lowered her head shyly, “Yes, my family has some business dealings with the Fu family, but I haven’t had the chance to meet Mr. Fu either. You guys are really lucky.”
Su Yang’s gossip piqued her interest.
Ever since she promised Fu Yunze that she would no longer contact Su Yang, in order to get more money, she was not in the mood to look for this man who made her ‘physically and mentally comfortable’.
Jiang Man was especially surprised when she suddenly heard about Su Yang’s encounter.
”But these messages are all private. How could they be posted on the forum? Could it be that someone is deliberately spreading rumors?” Jiang Man covered her mouth exaggeratedly and asked in disbelief. However, in the eyes of the classmates who had a good impression of her, she was acting like a spoiled young lady.
A classmate said, “It’s all true. I heard that Senior Si’s condition isn’t too good. He has been in the hospital all this time and hasn’t left yet.”
Another girl said disdainfully, “Hmph, this is karma. He deceived so many girls, and now it’s time for him to pay the price.”
Jiang Man did not agree with such words. In her opinion, Su Yang was even more charming. He could attract many young girls who were willing to sacrifice themselves for him. People who would make a fuss about this matter would definitely not be able to love him.
She noticed that the students’ opinions of Su Yang were all different. They looked like they were about to start a fight, so she immediately changed the topic and directed it to Jiang Li.
Jiang Li had been keeping a low profile recently. The latest news had also stopped at the message of ‘the best in the province’. There were no other movements.
Jiang Man could not find out anything about Jiang Li, so she could only ask around among the students.
Just as she was about to find a topic to talk about, she was suddenly hit hard and almost fell to the ground.
The surroundings were even more chaotic.
Jiang Man steadied herself and raised her head to look at the opposite side. Her eyes widened in shock.
The female classmate who mentioned Su Yang not long ago was splashed with a red drink. It looked as if she was seriously injured, which was very scary.
”Who are you? Why did you hurt my classmate?” Jiang Man stood up quickly and stood on her classmate’s side without any hesitation.
Su Chang was still holding the drink cup. He looked at Jiang Man with a cold smile. “What? You’re allowed to talk bad about my brother behind my back, but I’m not allowed to teach you to shut up?”
Brother?
Su Yang?
This girl was Su Yang’s sister?
Jiang Man couldn’t help but size up Su Chang. She found that Su Chang and Su Yang really looked alike.
The difference was that Su Chang’s facial features were more flamboyant, while Su Yang was very handsome and gentle.
The girl’s hair was soaked, and she looked quite embarrassed. Under the gaze of her classmates, she felt too embarrassed and ran away while covering her face and crying.
”You dare to say it, but you still don’t dare to admit it? Why are you running away?” Su Chang did not get to see Jiang Li as he wished, so she was not feeling very comfortable. When he heard someone gossiping about her brother, she could not suppress the anger in her heart and immediately chased after that student.
Jiang Man stopped her in time. Her attitude was firm, but her voice was very gentle. She tried her best to calm Su Chang’s anger. “Miss Su, I apologize to you on behalf of my classmate.”
”I just came to the school, so I’m not very familiar with everything. That’s why I asked a few more questions. I hope you can understand.”
Her attitude was too good.
It was good that even Su Chang could not yell at her.
Su Chang glared at Jiang Man angrily and shook off Jiang Man’s hand. “You’re such a good person huh. Didn’t you cause all these things?”
Jiang Man seemed to be caught off guard. She was thrown off by Su Chang and staggered a step. She quickly held onto the dining table beside her.
She looked a little embarrassed, but compared to her classmate who was splashed with water, she looked less embarrassed and more fragile.
When Jiang Man raised her head again, her eyes were red and her voice was trembling, but she said firmly, “So, I’m apologizing to you and also for my classmate.”
The students around Jiang Man started to stand up for her. She kept putting on a low front, but Su Chang continued to pick on her, making her seem unreasonable and arrogant.
Su Chang did not realize that she had met her opponent.
The girls around her were more and more shrewd. They immediately understood that Jiang Man was not easy to deal with.
This round, Su Chang was destined to be at a disadvantage.
