An Zhixinâs face turned green, and she argued, âI didnât mean it! How could I know that she was just going out? I was just trying to stretch my legs, and she didnât watch where she was walking. How can you blame me for this? Be reasonable!â
The other girls said, âWhat do you mean she didnât watch where she was walking? If you suddenly stretch out your leg, how could she have seen it?â
âExactly, you did it intentionally. Who could have guarded against that?â
âI think she must be jealous of Mu Xiaoxiao. Wasnât it mentioned on Weibo that she only transferred to Shangde because of Young Master Jie? And since Mu Xiaoxiao is Young Master Jieâs girlfriend, how could An Zhixin not be resentful?â
Many people followed the Shangde Gossip Society, so they all knew about the discussion on Weibo and agreed with this comment.
An Zhixin shouted angrily, âWho says Iâm jealous of her? Iâm not!â
âHumph, I have clearly seen it many times, the way that she looked at Mu Xiaoxiao with her unfriendly stares. Whichever way you look at her, you can tell sheâs jealous, and yet she still refuses to admit it.â
âWhatâs so hard about admitting to jealousy? Even I dare to admit how damned jealous I am of Mu Xiaoxiao.â
An Zhixin said angrily, âWho would be jealous of her! Whatâs there to be jealous about? Her grades are so bad. If it wasnât for Young Master Jie, would she have entered Class S!â
In a fit of anger, she blurted out her hidden thoughts.
The students in the class suddenly felt that the sight of her was disgusting.
The person sharing An Zhixinâs desk felt awkward as he looked at everyone and said, âAlright, weâre all classmates, donât quarrel. Zhixin didnât do it intentionally and only accidentally stretched out her leg.â
âSo she didnât do it intentionally just because you said so?â
âYeah, I think she must have done it intentionally.â
Watching and hearing how these people were all voluntarily protecting Mu Xiaoxiao, An Zhixin felt stifled.
She turned to glare at Mu Xiaoxiao and said, âI donât care whether you believe it or not! In any case, I didnât do it intentionally!â
Mu Xiaoxiao had just been rubbing her elbow. After soothing the pain, she said, âNever mind.â
She didnât believe it was just a coincidence at first, but after seeing how An Zhixin denied so vehemently, she didnât want to pursue the matter any further.
Next time, she just had to be more careful.
The other students said, âMu Xiaoxiao, donât be so kind. If you forgive her once, she will hurt you again.â
âYeah, you should tell Young Master Jie and let him do you justice. I really donât believe she didnât do it intentionally.â
âYouâ¦â An Zhixin wanted to refute them, but she was not very skilled in this aspect. It used to be Wang Shiyu who would help her with these. Now that she needed these skills, she missed Shiyu.
The person sharing her desk said, âAlright, Mu Xiaoxiao has already magnanimously dismissed the matter, so letâs just forget it.â
An Zhixin thought that he would defend her, but she didnât expect to hear such a sentence.
Mu Xiaoxiao, magnanimous?
Wasnât that indirectly saying that it was her fault?
Then, her deskmate tugged at her clothes and whispered beside her, âWhy not apologize to Mu Xiaoxiao? After all, she is Young Master Jieâs girlfriend. It doesnât do you good to provoke her.â
An Zhixinâs face became swollen with anger. âIt wasnât intentional. Why should I apologize?â
The atmosphere was exactly the opposite when she had arrived yesterday and she found it hard to take it all in.
These boys were still fawning over her yesterday.
Why didnât they help her instead of Mu Xiaoxiao?
