Chapter 961: Rely on Me
When Su Cha received the news, she did not believe it.
Zuo Zhici was not someone who would do such a thing. On the contrary, it was Sheng Manru who was more p.r.o.ne to causing trouble.
Fu Mo informed her about the incident as soon as it happened. Su Cha took leave after one lesson and rushed to the Academic Affairs Office.
When she arrived outside the Academic Affairs Office, there were a few girls discussing in the corner downstairs. As they were far away, their voices were not lowered. Su Cha had sharp ears and heard them.
“After all, her mom just died a while ago. It’s understandable that she’s in a bad mood…”
“What a joke. Sheng Manru didn’t even provoke her. Why would she provoke others for no reason?”
“She’s probably feeling upset. After all, she used to be the little princess who did whatever she wanted. What about now? Her dad is crippled and her mom is dead. Who else does she have?”
…
There were always some people in this world who harbored ill intentions. In the past, although Zuo Zhici was a glamorous, rich, and beautiful girl in school and had a rather arrogant temper, she did not treat people too well. Thus, there were naturally people who disliked her.
Now that something had happened to Zuo Zhici, they started to gloat, and their words were extremely unpleasant.
Just because she had good grades did not mean that she was a good person.
When they saw Su Cha, the girls who were discussing immediately fell silent.
Everyone knew about the relations.h.i.+p between Su Cha and Zuo Zhici, so they did not continue to discuss when they saw someone related to her.
They did not think that Su Cha had heard them.
Su Cha walked over. Just as she was about to go upstairs, she suddenly stopped and curled her lips. “Isn’t your mother going to die sooner or later? All of you will die sooner or later. It’s normal for people to grow old, get sick, and die. How can you talk about others not having parents behind their backs? Will this day never come for you? Do you think you will die before your parents?”
Her words were really vicious.
The girls’ faces turned red and they didn’t know how to retort.
Seeing their reaction, Su Cha tilted her head slightly. “If you want to expose me or complain, it’s up to you, as long as you have the guts.”
She rarely threatened people in such a straightforward manner. After saying this, she only glanced at them indifferently before stepping up the stairs.
Her gaze was so sharp that the girls dared not utter a word as they looked at Su Cha’s back.
They felt extremely uncomfortable and aggrieved though.
When she reached the Academic Affairs Office upstairs, there was no one outside. When she walked to the window, Su Cha heard the voice of the Dean inside.
Zuo Zhici stood there, looking dazed and aggrieved.
Her eyes were a little red, but it didn’t seem like she had cried before. It seemed like she had been holding it in.
The Dean sighed slightly when he saw Zuo Zhici’s expression.
There was no one else besides him.
When Su Cha suddenly appeared, Zuo Zhici turned around. When she saw Su Cha, it was as if her tense body had finally relaxed. She could not stop herself and pouted. She looked at Su Cha and cried, “Sister!!”
Seeing Zuo Zhici like this, Su Cha pressed her forehead and walked into the Dean’s office. She greeted, “h.e.l.lo, Dean.”
She then looked at Zuo Zhici. “Are you still insensible?”
“No… no…”
As she was too agitated, Zuo Zhici had started to cry until she was out of breath and could not speak properly.
“Tell me, what happened?”
The Dean was about to open his mouth when Zuo Zhici quickly shook her head. “No… I didn’t push her!… If she dies… I’ll be blamed… They won’t believe it…”
