Chapter 114: Utterly Defeated


She laughed bitterly to herself, “I see it clearly now, it’s so clear to me. So this is how it is…”


The chatter around them grew louder again.


“Didn’t they say that Jiang Wan was a beautiful and kind person? Why didn’t she agree to the request?”


“That’s right, Jiang Yu’s request isn’t too much. She only asked Ni Manman and Jiang Wan to help Chen Miaoyi plead for mercy. Aren’t they good sisters to begin with? Why are they making things so difficult?”


“In my opinion, Ni Manman isn’t trying to make things difficult. Such an outburst… Does she think that Chen Miaoyi is deliberately making them lose face?”

!!

“Moreover, Jiang Wan hasn’t uttered a single word. Maybe she is thinking the same in her heart as well?”


“Sigh, I feel like the image of the school belle in my heart has been destroyed today…”


“Who says Jiang Wan is still the school belle? Didn’t you see the voting post on the school forum? Jiang Yu’s votes had been far behind Jiang Wan’s because everyone thought that Jiang Yu was just an empty flower vase. In the end, Jiang Yu got first place in the monthly exam with full marks on all her papers. The vote for Jiang Yu shot up immediately and Jiang Wan fell behind!”


“Does this mean that Jiang Yu is the school belle now?”


“Don’t stray too far. Let’s focus on today’s matter. I personally think what Ni Manman had said about Jiang Wan being kind and not wanting her friend to suffer were just probably just words meant to mock Jiang Wan.”


“…”


Ni Manman covered her ears as she heard the chatter around her and yelled, “Shut up! Shut Up! You don’t know anything and are just spouting nonsense! Do you know about the grudge between us and Jiang Yu? What a bunch of gossips!”


Ji Churan spoke up and joined the crowd of voices, “We do know. Weren’t the two of you there when the bet was made? You didn’t stop them then and now that your friend is in trouble, what’s wrong with helping her?”


She already knew the whole story, so she didn’t feel guilty saying those words.


What she really couldn’t understand was why they were not willing to lower their pride. Moreover, based on Jiang Yu’s character, she definitely wouldn’t make them kneel down and apologize. Why were they so against it?


If Jiang Yu were in Chen Miaoyi’s shoes, Ji Churan would definitely be willing to sacrifice herself for her friend.


Chen Miaoyi’s heart turned stone cold after hearing Ni Manman’s angry rebuke and Jiang Wan’s silence.


She didn’t want to stay there anymore.


She turned around and was about to leave. She was ready to tell Jiang Yu that she had lost.


She was exhausted from losing.


She had been utterly defeated.


At that moment, Jiang Wan suddenly said, “Miaoyi, I’m sorry… I was just remembering about something back at home, how my big brother had taught me a lesson, how I have apologized to my big sister several times…”


“So, when you said that just now, I immediately thought of some bad memories. I was in a daze for a moment, so I didn’t immediately agree…”


“I’m sorry, don’t cry anymore. I’ll go with you now.”


She raised her hand to wipe Chen Miaoyi’s tears but Chen Miaoyi took a step back to avoid her hand.


Jiang Wan’s hand instead fell on Ni Manman. “Man Man, don’t be angry. Miaoyi is our good sister. Sisters should help each other.”


Jiang Wan’s words gave Ni Manman no way out. She reluctantly followed Jiang Wan and Chen Miaoyi toward Jiang Yu.


Since Jiang Wan had already agreed, Chen Miaoyi would not be stupid enough to push them away.


She also wanted to see how her “good sisters” would defend her.


Jiang Yu said nonchalantly, “I don’t have much time. Have you thought about how you’re going to beg me?”
