Chapter 52: Sister Is Not Such A Person
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Of course, not all the students believed that Qiao Xi was a mistress.
[Don’t spout nonsense, alright? What can this photo prove?]
[That’s right. You’re saying she’s a mistress just because she was seen getting down from a luxury car. Do you think everyone is like you, pouncing on rich people whenever they see them?]
[I think this old man is a driver. Can’t you see that Master Gu Shan got down from the backseat? If she’s really a mistress, Master Gu Shan shouldn’t be sitting in the back, right?]
This thread was quickly trending. Most of the students participated in the discussion, and the comments instantly went from a few hundred to a few thousand.
Few people insisted that Qiao Xi was a mistress, but most of the students felt that it was untrue. Qiao Xi was rich and good-looking, so why would she be a mistress?
The dean knew that the situation wasn’t good. He hurriedly went to look for the chancellor to ask for a solution. Before he arrived, he saw many students outside the teaching building.
“Qiao Rou, is your sister really someone’s mistress?”
“I heard that your sister came from the countryside. Are country bumpkins really so shortsighted? She already has the status as Master Gu Shan, yet she still degraded herself to be with an old man because of money.”
“Qiao Rou, if what the thread says is true and Qiao Xi is really a mistress, you should lecture her, right? After all, she’s embarrassing the Qiao family.”
Qiao Rou was surrounded by these people. She bit her lower lip as if she had something difficult to say. “Sister… Sister hasn’t been coming home recently. Dad would call her but she wouldn’t pick up… But don’t misunderstand. Sister must have her own matters to handle. What the thread says must not be true.”
Wang Qing shouted at the side, “Rou Rou! Why are you still trying to cover for Qiao Xi? Qiao Xi is just a country bumpkin who came back from the countryside. How can she know anyone in Li City? Where else can she stay if she doesn’t go home? It just proves that she’s a mistress. She thinks that because she has found a rich man that she doesn’t need the Qiao family anymore, so she doesn’t answer your father’s calls!”
Previously backstage, Qiao Xi had taught Wang Qing a good lesson and almost made her get kicked out of the university. If it were not for Wang Qing’s family’s connections, she would not have been able to continue studying at Li City University.
She hated Qiao Xi so much that she gnashed her teeth. It was rare that they had gotten dirt on Qiao Xi, so she naturally wanted to hit her when she was down.
When the dean heard their words, he was so terrified that his scalp went numb. He quickly walked forward and berated, “What are you talking about? Classes are about to start. Hurry up and go to the classrooms. Don’t crowd around here.”
Wang Qing could not take it lying down. She straightened her neck and shouted, “Dean, we’re going to look for the chancellor. We won’t accept a teacher with such a bad character like Qiao Xi! We request that the university fire Qiao Xi!”
Qiao Rou pulled her aside and explained to the dean anxiously, “No, Dean, that’s not what we meant. My sister isn’t such a person…”
Wang Qing expected better from her. “What do you mean by not such a person? Rou Rou, have you forgotten how badly she embarrassed you last time? She didn’t tell you that she was Gu Shan and even slapped you in the face in public, humiliating you. You sincerely treat her as your sister, but does she treat you as her sister?!
“Since Qiao Xi hasn’t even returned home in so many days, the truth is already out. Do you still want to protect her? Rou Rou, you can’t be so selfish. This isn’t just a matter of your family, but it also concerns countless students from the design department. When I think about how the person who’s teaching us has such a character, I feel disgusted! In the future, others will point at our noses and say, ‘Look, it’s them. Their teacher, Gu Shan, is a mistress. Whatever a teacher teachers their students, the students will follow. We have to stay away from them!'”
“I…” Qiao Rou looked a little anxious and said with difficulty,” M-Maybe it’s really a misunderstanding. Maybe that man and my sister aren’t in the kind of relationship you think they’re in. Maybe he’s really a driver…”
Wang Qing was burning with anger. “Impossible! It’s impossible! Qiao Xi is definitely in an inappropriate relationship with that old man. Rou Rou, stop finding excuses for Qiao Xi. Someone has already anonymously exposed her on the official forum!”
Everyone subconsciously took out their phones and checked the forum. They realized that a new thread had been uploaded.
[Gu Shan is a mistress—irrefutable evidence.]
The thread said that the reason Qiao Xi was thrown to the countryside many years ago was that Qiao Xi was vicious from a young age. She could not stand her younger sister, Qiao Rou, nor did she accept Xu Mei, her stepmother. She once even contacted human traffickers with the intention of selling Qiao Rou. In this way, she could have her father’s love for herself.
Unfortunately, the matter was exposed. Mr. Qiao was furious, but he could not bear to scold or hit Qiao Xi. However, he could not let her be without educating her either, so he could only throw Qiao Xi to the countryside to get someone to take care of her. He wanted to sharpen her character. Hence, she was only brought back to the Qiao family not long ago.
After returning to the Qiao family, Qiao Xi laid low for a period of time. However, she quickly reverted to her true self and began to constantly target Qiao Rou’s mother.
There were even photos of Qiao Xi when she was young in the thread.. This sudden piece of news really shocked everyone.
