Even Shen Qingqing herself had not expected that. She had been listening to them talk about a brand by the name of Seven and an S person, but she had no idea what they were exactly.
But after hearing so much, she did have a faint concept of what they were referring to.
It was simply that this brandâs items were expensive, and that her bracelet was more valuable than the one Qiao Chen had lost.
She felt more confident already.
Even her posture was more upright now.
Qiao Nian didnât want to waste more time on Qiao Chen. She simply walked over and said to the pale girl, âQiao Chen, apologize.â
Qiao Chenâs head snapped up. She bit her lip as her eyes flickered.
Had she not already apologized?
What was Qiao Nian saying!
As if having read her mind, Qiao Nian tipped her head up slightly coldly and ferociously. She spoke with a suave aura, âYour apology from just now doesnât count.
âHas nobody taught you how to apologize before?
âYou didnât even say the word âsorryâ the entire time and was even insinuating that Shen Qingqing was wearing an imitation. Now that weâve proven the authenticity of Shen Qingqingâs bracelet, and that you were too blind to tell real from fake goods, isnât it about time you apologized sincerely?â
Qiao Chen clenched her fists as her lashes trembled. She was trying to save her last ounce of dignity. âI didnât say she was wearing an imitation.â
This was exactly what Qiao Nian detested about her. She always beat about the bush and evaded responsibility whenever things happened.
Qiao Nian frowned in frustration. âYou didnât say it explicitly, but everyone here knows what you were getting at.
âApologize to Shen Qingqing.
âOtherwise, weâll blow this up.â
She wasnât loud, and she actually looked pretty calm besides being impatient.
But her presence was somewhat intimidating to everyone there.
Even Liang Bowen was looking at her and thinking: Damn, whatâs with Sister Nian? She usually looks so lazy and casual, but sheâs oddly suave today.
Chen Yuan had seen this other side of Qiao Nian before and hence wasnât too surprised. He couldnât stand the way Qiao Chen was acting, either. He snapped, âFirst High School isnât founded by your Qiao family, so stop acting this way when youâre not at home. Not everyone here is your mom. We canât stand the way you act here!â
Chen Yuan insulted Qiao Chen directly.
He didnât save her any face.
Qiao Chenâs face reddened instantly as humiliation took over her eyes.
Forget about Qiao Nian. This Chen Yuan was just the son of a nanny her family had employed before. Who was he to speak to her this way!
Qiao Nian didnât give her a chance to act up. She simply said in a beautifully succinct manner, âApologize!â
She hadnât managed to find her lost bracelet, and Shen Qingqingâs Seven bracelet happened to be real.
Qiao Chen was really at her witsâ end. Unwilling as she was, she could only give in.
She swallowed the humiliation and said to Shen Qingqing quietly, âIâm sorry, I was mistaken about you.â
After apologizing, Qiao Chen looked up again. This time, her eyes were red.
It was as if sheâd been misunderstood by them. She turned to look at Qiao Nian with anger and embarrassment in her eyes. âCan I leave now?â
Qiao Nianâs posture was casual, a stark contrast to Qiao Chenâs. She replied, âIâm not in your way, you donât have to report to me if youâre leaving.â
Qiao Chenâs face darkened.
Thatâs right, why did she have to report to Qiao Nian? It was as if she dared not leave unless Qiao Nian gave her permission.
She gritted her teeth and left.
With that, the rest of the Class B students took their leave too.
