Chapter 249: Trouble is Here VI
Xingren’s hands trembled when she saw the last comment on the post.
There is another post? Now what? She thought that Xu Nuan will be rusticated but Mr. Wen posted a video of her which changed the flow of the situation.
Now, what else?
Even though the air conditioner in the room was on, she was drenched in a cold sweat. Her palms were sweaty while her mouth became dry.
She was scared but was trying to think positively. It doesn’t have to be about her. It can’t be her.
She took a deep breath to control her nerves and repeated in a low voice to comfort herself, ” It’s okay. It’s nothing.”
” It has nothing to do with me. Yes. Nothing to do with me!”
.....
Upon refreshing the forum page, her fingers became stiff to see the new post notification. She hesitated but clicked on the post eventually.
She could feel the cold sweat running down her spine when she saw the title of the post- TOPPER OF XIN LIU’S SCHOLARSHIP EXAM IS A CHEATER? OR A VICTIM?
” What kind of rubbish title is this?”
As her eyes moved towards, she could feel her body turning into ice. Another attachment? Just like Mr. Wen’s post, there wasn’t anything written but just an attachment file.
She swallowed her saliva and clicked on the attachment file. Her eyes widened in shock and fear when the audio clip was played.

Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAt the start of the audio, a man’s voice could be heard, [ You want me to make sure no one can track you through your laptop? Why? Did you do something illegal?” he laughed.
[ Are you crazy? I didn’t do anything illegal?] The girl said.
[ Then why? You never asked me to do something like this for you before.]
[ Actually...it’s nothing important. I...just posted something on the college forum and I don’t want anyone to find out that it’s me who made that post.]
[ What kind of post? Did you post anything scandalizing? Xingren, you don’t have to hide anything from me. I am your friend, I won’t judge you. So be honest.]
The girl sighed, [ You know that beggar Xu Nuan, right?]
[ Your sister?]
[She is not my sister! She is just someone whom my family picked up from the streets.] She asserted.
[ What about her?]
[ Erm...actually, I just revealed Xu Nuan’s true face on the forum. You know, that there is no way she can get into Xin Liu on her own. She is stupid and it’s impossible for her to encompass me in terms of academics or anything. She is a loser!]
So I just posted a few pictures of hers on the forum and told everyone that she cheated in the exam. Nothing else.]
[ She cheated in the exam? Is this true?] The man was surprised as he never expected something like this from Xu Nuan. Although he never met her, the talks of Xingren, she sounds like a manipulative and stupid person.
[ It must be true, otherwise, how can she get the number one position? It’s Xin Liu afterall. She took my position in the family, I can’t let her replace me in college too. I want her to be kicked out of the college at any cost.] The girl’s voice started to sound more aggressive and angry.
[ Hmm.. I’ll make sure that no one can find out that it was you who made the post. Ah, but what about that girl who pushed Xu Nuan on the road and almost killed her? Didn’t you say that your grandfather finds out that it was you, who asked her to attack Xu Nuan? What happened?]
[ What can happen? Because of that, I was punished for a week but after my results of the exam were released, everything became normal. Moreover, she didn’t even die. That girl only pushed her on the road and Xu Nuan was saved on time.
[That girl was also stupid. She got away with it after telling everyone that it’s me. What a stupid girl. She couldn’t even keep her mouth shut.] Xingren humphed.
[ Xingren, you should not get yourself into these scandals. From what I see, Xu Nuan has changed a lot from that accident. You should be thankful that she didn’t die that time, otherwise, you would have been in jail.]
[ Are you kidding me? Why would I be in jail? It was just a push and it was her bad luck that she got in front of the car. Also, the second time, it wasn’t even me who pushed her. I just asked that girl to hurt her. How can I get into jail? Don’t spout nonsense and just do your work right.]
The man sighed and said, [ Okay, calm down. I’ll do my work so you should relax. And don’t create more trouble for yourself now. I am not gonna help you to clean up behind you anymore.]

Xingren’s mouth was left open in shock. She didn’t know how to react to it. What...what did she just hear?
At first, she was shocked to hear her voice but when the man took her name multiple times, she could feel her soul leaving her body.
It was the conversation that she had with her friend yesterday. After the anonymous post was updated yesterday, she got worried and doesn’t want to be caught.
So she contacted her close friend, who is good at dealing with computers and stuff. She doesn’t want anyone to know that it was her who made the post that why she told him everything so that he will do it with extra caution.
But...how come this conversation ended up here? How did this person find the recording of their conversation? How?
” Who...can do this? Is this person crazy?” She grabs her hair and pulls them in frustration.
” Did...everyone heard this audio clip? Now everyone will know that it’s me who made that post.”
Her pupils widened remembering the other contents of the clip, ” What if they believed that I tried to kill Xu Nuan? I didn’t. I was just....I just pushed her a little. Nothing else. She didn’t even die.”
” They won’t blame me for it, right? They won’t, right?” she mumbled in a low voice like a crazy woman, and with trembling hands, she scrolled down to see everyone’s response.
[ Xingren? Like our department’s belle? She is the one who made that post and spread rumors? Ah, wait...what about the other conversation? What exactly is going on?]
[ Holy Shit!! Xingren always acts polite and elegant but she is a murderer. She not only spread false rumors about Xu Nuan but also tried to kill her, not once but twice. Waah!! She is dangerous.]
[ Is she crazy? After killing her almost twice, she is still excusing herself saying that she didn’t die? Like, someone has to die for her to accept that she almost murdered someone.]
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm[ She is crazy. Looking at her innocent appearance, no one can tell that she has such dangerous thoughts in that mind. I am scared of her now.]
[ You know when Xu Nuan fought with her classmates, she stayed there but didn’t say anything. She was enjoying seeing Xu Nuan in trouble. Instead, she was getting everyone’s sympathy while Xu Nuan was getting hate. I feel so sorry for her.]
[ Ah, Poor Xu Nuan. Now I can understand why she doesn’t like Xingren. Because she has seen her true face that no one has ever seen before. Xingren should be the one who should be kicked out.]
[ Goosebumps! I am her classmate and I have talked to her many times. She is such a polite girl but upon hearing this conversation, I am shocked.]
[ Is this even real? What if this video is fabricated to ruin Xingrrrne’s image?]
Xingrne’s eyes lit up upon seeing the comment that was in her favor. Yes, there are people who will believe her. She can simply say that it’s not her and prove that it’s a fabricated clip.
Yes! This will do.
However, upon reading other comments, she lost the remaining hope too.
[ When the post was made, I checked its IP address and found out that Xinregn is indeed the one who made that post. But I stayed quiet as I thought that she was already trying to be vocal about the injustice towards her. But it turned out that she was the one in the wrong.]
” Now what will happen to me? How can...this audio....” Xingren felt her whole body trembling uncontrollably.
” It must be Xu Nuan! She is the one who ruined my life.” Tears welled up in her eyes as the fear started to settle in her. The fear of getting hate and criticism from everyone.
Now everyone will hate her in college. She was the belle of her department, star fresher of the college. What will happen to her reputation now?

Xu Nuan was sitting at the dining table and was eating fresh strawberries while reading the comments on her post.
Her lips curled into a smirk upon seeing the blasting response from everyone. After Mr. Wen’s video, the authenticity of her audio has increased more than she had imagined.
While reading the comments, she looked at the strawberries and exclaimed in surprise, ” Woah, these strawberries are so sweet. SWEET!!”
