Chapter 247: Trouble is Here IV
Xingren’s expressions darkened when she saw the post on the college forum. After scrolling down, she pursed her lips into a thin line upon seeing the announcement.
” The Dean is going to post a statement to resolve this matter? But why?” She spoke aloud.
She was confused. What is there to resolve the matter?
And...why do they want to investigate the owner of this post and take action against them?
Why? It was just a normal post and she was simply trying to reveal Xu Nuan’s true face to everyone, that’s it.
After thinking for a moment, she nodded in understanding. “Seems like.....they are going to rusticate Xu Nuan for cheating in the exam. If not, what else is there to clarify?”
” And the investigation against the post owner must be a bluff so that students don’t cause this kind of havoc again. Yes. That will be the case.” she murmured in a low voice.
.....
” Xu Nuan, are you okay? Your face has gone pale.” Her friend, Lai Zi who showed her the post, said worriedly upon seeing her colorless complexion.
Xingren was startled to hear her voice as she almost forgot that she was still here. Getting her senses back, she smiled and waved hands at her to not worry about her.
However, the dimness of her eyes made her friend worried.
” Xingren, You should not think about that girl. I am sure the college will take the right action against her.” Her friend comforted her.
Xingren didn’t say anything and just nodded. She can’t show her happiness, can she?
That’s right. The college will never take a risk to go against all the students, just to keep an insignificant girl in the college.

” Hmm....I should drink some beer tonight.”
Xu Nuan sipped on her strawberry yogurt as her fingers worked on the keyboard. She was sitting on her bed and had her laptop on her lap.
She was planning to attend the afternoon lectures today but thinking about the work she had to do, she changed her plan.
” Oh, the college admin has pulled down the post? Hmm...that’s boring,” she said.
Her eyes were shining with a glint and a mean smirk was plastered on her face.
She looked at her laptop screen and said, ” Xingren, you had fun all this time, right? Now it’s my time to have some fun.”
” Arghh...it’s been so long since I have done anything exciting.” She stretched her hands and after resting her hands, she finally pressed the enter button.
“Xingren, Have fun tonight. Tomorrow is going to be a hard day for you,” she said with a smirk.

Gu Mansion.
” Xingren, have some meat. You need to eat well to study well.” Grandmother Gu said as she put a piece of meat in Xingren’s bowl.
Xingren whined cutely and said, ” Grandma, I will get fat if you pamper me like this.
” Aiya, what fat? You’re already so skinny. You should eat more.”
Seeing their interaction, Grandfather Gu frowned.
He was still thinking about the words that Xu Nuan said in the morning. From her words, she already seems to know about who made the post.
And her words were directed towards only one person. Xingren
He looked at Xingren but he couldn’t say anything since he didn’t have any evidence. How can he help Xu Nuan?

After dinner, when Xingren returned to her room and was about to take a shower before going to sleep, she heard her phone buzzing constantly, which was on the study table.
She walked to the study table and picked up her phone to check the notifications. Upon unlocking her phone, it surged with an ocean of notifications that had filled up her phone.
Her mouth was left open in shock. What’s happening? Why are there so many notifications on her phone?
She never had this many notifications before.
She clicked on one of the notifications which took her to the college forum. She frowned upon seeing a new post on the forum that had been posted only a few minutes ago.
Although it was posted a few minutes ago, it already had hundreds of comments under it. What is so special about this post that people are going crazy over it?
Her palms turned sweaty upon seeing this much hype for a post. What kind of post could it be?
She tried to compose herself and took a deep breath before clicking on the post to see why everyone are overreacting because of it.

Upon reading the contents of the post, Xingren’s complexion turned pale. Her eyes widened in shock as she couldn’t register what she just read. The truth behind the post? What is the truth?
The person who has written the post, they have included all the questions asked in the earlier post and was claiming to reveal the truth behind this tomorrow. But the question is...what kind of truth?
Is the person going to reveal the truth about Xu Nuan’s true face to everyone or the post?
Does this person hates Xu Nuan as much as she does or-
“Who...who can do such a thing?” her hands started to tremble as fear started to engulf her. Who is this person? What do they know about the post?
” Xingren, Relax. This post has nothing to do with you. Yes, nothing.” She repeated this in her head and calmed down.
” You’re just a victim. Xu Nuan is the one who is trying to snatch everything from you.”
After taking a deep breath, she scrolled down to see the comments.
( Truth behind the post? I wonder what it could be.)
( Oh My! Although this girl has an innocent face, she has a shitty personality. Otherwise, why would anyone spread such kinds of rumors against someone?)
( There is no fire without a spark. The girl must have done something bad, otherwise, why would there be a post like this? The scholarship exam should be re-evaluated. We can’t have cheaters in our college. )
( I feel bad for Xingren. She is being pulled into all of this drama for no reason. She doesn’t deserve to be treated like this.)
( I don’t understand why the hell college deleted that post? Are they trying to silence us by doing us? That’s so wrong.)
( Exactly. As the students of Xin Liu, we have the right to speak against the wrongdoings of the college. How can they try to silence us by doing this? Not fair.)
( Why is there not much information about what’s going to be revealed tomorrow? I am dying out of curiosity.)
(Did you guys hear the news? Xu Nuan fought with her classmates upon being confronted by them. Not only that, she also threw water on a girl. How shameless!)
(Isn’t the Dean going to give a statement about this rumour tomorrow too? That too, at the same time? I hope he doesn’t take a side with this girl and kick the cheater bitch out of the college. We don’t need a cheater in our college.)
( I can’t believe such a thing happened in our college. Xin Liu is a prestigious university. Such thing thing happening here is such a disgrace.)
( Guyss, prepare your drinks and snacks. Tomorrow there will be a war. And we’re the spectators, let’s enjoy this drama. Oo, it’s so thrilling.)
–
Xingren pursed her lips as she read the comments. Most of the comments were about Xu Nuan being a cheater and a bitch and some were about the drama created by this mysterious post.
Just like her previous post, this one was an anonymous post as well. But...who could it be?
Is it Xu Nuan? But even if it is her, what can she do to her? There is nothing to prove anyway.
She can never prove that she is the one who made that post?
She bit her fingernails and mumbled, ” Who posted such a thing? What is going to be revealed tomorrow?”

The next day-
The college was filled with the whispers of the students and everyone was discussing the drama that was going to happen tonight.
Xingren was panicking just by listening to others’ whispers. Something doesn’t feel right.
Something big is going to happen.
As she was trying to calm herself down, she saw Xu Nuan entering the classroom. She looked normal as if nothing had happened.
She still has the guts to come to attend the lecture. She shot her a glare and couldn’t’ hide her disdain towards her.
.....
She stood up and blocked her way, ” Sister, you’re here? Why didn’t you come to the college yesterday? Are you afraid about the rumours that’s going around about you?”
Although she looked worried for her while asking this, Xu Nuan knows her better.
Xu Nuan looked around and saw that everyone was staring at them. She chuckled. ” Who is your sister? Xingren, we’re the same age. Don’t act like I am older than you when I clearly look way younger than you.” she said.
Xingren’s face turned crimson from embarrassment and anger. How dare she?
