Chapter 93: Chapter 93: Endless Turmoil and Slander

At this moment, Yang Zhigang couldn’t bear it any longer and spoke up, “Miaomiao, just take the money. Your Brother Jiang is wealthy and doesn’t care about these few bucks.”

Liu Yulan came over with the dishes, understood what was happening, and said, “Miaomiao, keep it. Thank your Brother Jiang.”

She believed her daughter fell into the water partly because of Zhang Hongfang, but also partly because of Jiang Yan, so this money should be given to her. Besides, Jiang Yan clearly had no intention of taking the money, so going back and forth was meaningless.

Since Liu Yulan had spoken, Wang Miaomiao didn’t stand on ceremony and accepted the money, smiling as she thanked Jiang Yan.

Unexpected windfall, huh? Is this a reward for her bravery? Hehe…

Wang Miaomiao smiled as she tucked the money away, feeling a little proud in a money-loving way.

Seeing this, Jiang Yan felt even happier.

At this point, Wang Baoxing brought out some alcohol, filled the glasses for the men, and the atmosphere at the table immediately became lively, with no trace of the earlier tension and hostility.

On Sunday, as usual, she tutored Cheng Xue and the others. This time, Wang Miaomiao had more materials in her hands, practice papers for every subject, given to her by Jiang Yan the previous night before he left, as a thank you for tutoring Cheng Xue, specially sent from Beijing.

Holding the materials, Wang Miaomiao couldn’t help but recall the expression on the man’s face under the moonlight last night, which made her feel a bit uneasy. What exactly was off… she couldn’t quite figure it out.

Sigh… forget it, maybe he just drank too much last night.

On Sunday evening, Wang Miaomiao and Cheng Xue had dinner at a restaurant, of course with Jiang Yan treating. They happily carried back a bag of fragrant clothes to school, but their good mood ended at the door of dorm 202.

“Hey, Caihong, Jiajia, what do you think, how far have Cheng Xue’s uncle and Wang Miaomiao gone?”

Lu Xuemei’s voice came from inside dorm 202, causing Wang Miaomiao and Cheng Xue to stop in their tracks at the door, their expressions turning heavy.

Lu Xuemei was from dorm 203 and was now gossiping about Wang Miaomiao. What was she trying to do?

“What development? Don’t talk nonsense.” Li Jiajia was not having any of it.

But Ren Caihong chimed in sarcastically, “How is it nonsense? There’s no smoke without fire. Many people saw them hugging. And every month-end, he comes to pick up and drop off Wang Miaomiao and Cheng Xue. If nothing’s going on, why be so attentive?”

Lu Xuemei seemed to have found a kindred spirit and quickly echoed, “Yeah, yeah, hehe… What do you think Wang Miaomiao is thinking, getting involved with Cheng Xue’s uncle? Does she want to become Cheng Xue’s aunt? On one hand, claiming sisterhood with Cheng Xue, and on the other, aspiring to be her elder. How could she do such a thing…”

“Hmph, nothing is beyond her. Acts so noble in front of people, but in private… hehe…” Ren Caihong said with jealousy towards Wang Miaomiao. Last month during exams, she only came in third, a tier below Wang Miaomiao, which planted a thorn in her heart.

“Bang…” The door of dorm 202 was kicked open by Cheng Xue, who burst in like a small cannonball, “You filthy shameless people, see if I don’t tear your mouths apart.”

“Xiao Xue, don’t.” Wang Miaomiao couldn’t stop Cheng Xue in time and could only rush in after her, seeing her about to make a move, she quickly hugged her from behind, “Calm down, we can’t use violence.”

“How can I calm down, they’re badmouthing you behind your back, let me go, I’ll teach them a lesson.” Cheng Xue was furious and struggled a bit, but didn’t dare use full force as she was afraid of hurting Wang Miaomiao.

“No, you definitely can’t hit them.” Wang Miaomiao wanted to say that if anyone should it should be her, the subject of the rumors. Oh, she really wanted to give those two women a couple of slaps, but with Cheng Xue making a scene, she had to put that thought on hold; she couldn’t let Cheng Xue make a mistake over her matter.

Wang Miaomiao held her tightly, so Cheng Xue could only vent her anger with words, “Hmph, you shameless lot, all of your learning is for nothing. Gossiping behind people’s backs and making up rumors, you’re all scoundrels, filthy and shameless…”

Lu Xuemei and Ren Caihong turned pale, they were too dumbfounded. Caught badmouthing someone behind their back, they truly felt uneasy inside. But being scolded like this by Cheng Xue, they couldn’t take it lying down.

Especially Ren Caihong, who was always a proud figure at home and at school, so she retorted, “How are we making things up? If Wang Miaomiao didn’t do it, she wouldn’t be scared of talk. If you have a clear conscience, why would you worry about shadows? You jumping out like this is making you look foolish, didn’t you see she didn’t even dare to refute.”

Wang Miaomiao originally didn’t want to escalate the situation, but now that the other party was being unreasonable and growing bolder, did they think the tiger was a sick cat when it didn’t show its power…

Wang Miaomiao released Cheng Xue, pulled her behind her, rushed up and gave Ren Caihong a slap, grabbed her hair, and pressed her face against the table, “I don’t dare to refute, huh? Let me show you, you feel bold now, huh? Whether my conscience is clear is none of your business, but your heart is definitely black, a waste of a smart brain when it’s full of crap, spewing nothing but shit!”

Everyone in the dorm was stunned, the doorway of dorm 202 was crowded with people.

Cheng Xue looked at Wang Miaomiao, her eyes full of admiration, wow… Is this still her gentle and considerate Sister Miaomiao? She’s awesome…

After venting, she felt better. Seeing the startled faces in the dorm, she started thinking about what to do next as this couldn’t be resolved privately, “Xiao Xue, let’s take Lu Xuemei to see the principal.”

“Huh? Okay…” Cheng Xue obediently said to Lu Xuemei, “Are you going to walk yourself or do I have to drag you there…”

Lu Xuemei’s body trembled slightly, she couldn’t help but take a step back in fear.

Ren Caihong was provoked by Wang Miaomiao’s actions and couldn’t help but cry out, sobbing and threatening, “Wang Miaomiao, let go of me, I won’t let you get away with this.”

Wang Miaomiao released her hand and said dismissively, “So what if I let you go, dare to fight back?”

“Ah…” Unable to bear the provocation, Ren Caihong rushed forward to scratch her face. Wang Miaomiao quickly blocked with her hand, but her hand was already scratched and bleeding, the three bright scratches showing how vicious Ren Caihong was.

Wang Miaomiao cried out loudly, “I can’t live, you’re really framing me like this, Xiao Xue, I might as well die, they ruined my reputation, what’s the point of living, even if I jumped into the Yellow River I can’t clear my name…”

Wang Miaomiao collapsed into Cheng Xue’s arms, whispering in her ear, “Take me to the teacher, let’s make it a big deal.”
