“Qiao Nian?” Xu Xu paused. Passing by the other classes, she secretly covered the receiver with her hand, afraid that someone would hear her. She lowered her voice. “Chen Chen, why are you asking about her?”
Qiao Chen stared at her exquisite eyebrows in the mirror and lowered her eyes. Her voice was gentle as water. “It’s nothing, I was just asking.”
“Oh, I thought she was bullying you again.”
Last time, regarding Wu Jie’s matter, only Xu Xu believed that Qiao Chen had been framed.
After Wu Jie left the school, everyone in the class, including Cai Yan, who had been pretty good with Qiao Chen, stopped contacting her. Only she continued to curry favor with Qiao Chen and felt that she was a friend.
Qiao Chen got into Qing University and went to Beijing. Her future was limitless, so she naturally wanted to hug her thigh.
“Qiao Nian isn’t back yet. When she comes back, people will definitely see her and post about her. She’s a famous person in school now. Many low-grade people treat her as an idol. There are many of her posts on the school forum. The people kneeling and licking her feet are so disgusting. I can’t stand
watching those people praise her every time!”
Xu Xu said in disdain, “If you didn’t transfer schools, she wouldn’t have been able to stand out in First High School.”
Hearing this, Qiao Chen’s heart tightened and she felt inexplicably frustrated. But she couldn’t show it to Xu Xu. Not replying, she only said, “Then, she’s not back yet.”
Qiao Chen recalled. “Didn’t she only apply for half a month’s leave? She should have gone back last week…”
“Last time, I heard someone from Class A leak that she only took half a month of leave,” Xu Xu continued unhappily. “But Chen Chen, you also know that she has never taken the school rules seriously. No one in the school cares about it, either. Now that she has good results, the school will let her do
whatever! Don’t you see that their form teacher, Shen Hui, is usually known as the Devil Teacher? She’s so strict with her class. She has never controlled her! It’s all because of her that she has double standards.”
First High School indeed had two standards.
Qiao Chen couldn’t help but think of Wu Jie’s previous matter. Wu Jie had posted on the forum complaining about her, but First High School actually did not delete the thread and insisted on keeping it there for the entire day. They deleted it the other day, causing the entire school to see it first.
She clenched her fists as her eyes flickered. The person reflected in the mirror was also wooden-faced and did not look good.
According to Xu Xu, Qiao Nian had indeed not returned to school. She was probably still in Beijing.
Could the person she saw at Imperial Mansion be Qiao Nian?
She wasn’t particularly sure.
After all, Nie Mis status in Beijing was not low. He had a wide network and knew many people. However, he was ultimately just a master of an unconventional culture. In a place like Beijing, quite a number of people like were Nie Mi. In a palm-sized territory, there was also Mr. Huang from the
Traditional Chinese Medicine Faculty. In recent times, there were also Liang Lu, Cheng Wu, and others with similar status among the younger generation
These people had high social status and were respected when they went out. However, in reality, they were definitely not as confident as people from big families like Wei Ling.
Since Wei Ling couldn’t eat in the Imperial Mansion, Nie Mi couldn’t book the entire venue either.
Qiao Nian only knew Nie Mi in Beijing.
That was the extent of her connections.
Qiao Chen felt a little relieved at this thought..
