Chapter 61 - Not So Innocent (1)
Naturally, because of Su Xiaofei's arrogant and overbearing personality, she didn't have many friends in school except for Xi Qian and Lu Qingfeng. Although there were some students that were amicable with her due to her status as the daughter of a wealthy family, those students who came from old money look down on Su Xiaofei.
Who was Su Xiaofei in their eyes anyway? What was she like?
If one were to ask her classmates, they would say that despite Su Xiaofei being the daughter of a wealthy family, she lacked elegance and proper etiquette. She was also stupid and foolish as she always failed their exams and would come out as the lowest in the ranks.
Her appearance might be exceptionally beautiful, way better than the campus belles from the other grades and sections, but Su Xiaofei didn't have an outstanding and lovable personality at all. She was nothing but a flower vase in their opinion.
'What's the point of being beautiful when you're brainless.' They all said behind Su Xiaofei's back.
In her past life, these kinds of opinions and impressions towards Su Xiaofei only worsened when Ye Mingyu arrived. They were both daughters of the Su family, but their personalities and attitudes were complete opposites.
"Aiya, it's the first day of class. Do you think Su Xiaofei would come today, or would she skip classes again? I really don't know what kind of misfortune we have to end up in the same class as her." Feng Xue'er muttered beside her friend.
She and Su Xiaofei never really got along since day one. Feng Xue'er didn't like how carefree Su Xiaofei was, spending her money lavishly, bragging about her status in front of everyone.
The moment Su Xiaofei and Xi Qian entered their classroom, their classmates fell silent and stared at them. There was something different about Su Xiaofei today. It was as if the person who came in was Su Xiaofei, but not her at the same time.
There was an air of elegance and confidence around Su Xiaofei, something they had never seen before in her. Even Feng Xue'er was stunned in place upon seeing Su Xiaofei entering with Xi Qian.
Her face was still the same, yet there was a hint of coldness and sharpness in her eyes, making her look charming and dangerous at the same time. With her chin slightly raised, it was easy for everyone to see her face and eyes that were like the bottom of a lake that housed a dangerous beast, waiting to be unleashed.
Song Yiran, who was seated next to Feng Xue'er, couldn't help but exclaim.
"Classmate Su is exceptionally beautiful today."
Earning such a compliment from one of the heartthrobs of their campus, the girls threw Su Xiaofei a scathing look which she ignored completely, while Xi Qian raised her brows daring them to utter a word, but there was none.
Su Xiaofei placed her bag on top of her desk and took a seat, ignoring the stares she was receiving at the moment. With Xi Qian seated in front of her, she didn't feel lonely in this room full of idiots.
Xi Qian sighed inwardly. She supposed she should be used to all of this by now. Of course, like everyone else inside this room, she was also puzzled in her heart. It was like, since their Feifei had woken up in the hospital after Xi Qian's birthday, she had become a totally different person.
Su Xiaofei's temperament and attitude had changed a lot. She had said that she had changed because she recently had a change of heart towards Mo Yuchen, and wanted to live by her rules this time.
"Su Xiaofei, I heard you got hospitalized for drinking too much alcohol. Looks like it damaged your brain, huh?" Feng Xue'er couldn't stand seeing Su Xiaofei like this.
Such words were obviously thrown to make Su Xiaofei feel embarrassed, hoping that she would lash out in a fit of anger. It was just too bad that the young villainess didn't fall for such a simple trick.
"Thanking Classmate Feng for her concern, but this one didn't get hospitalized because of that. I hope, as a daughter of a prestigious family, you don't go around slandering someone's name."
Su Xiaofei only gave her a look and returned to fiddling with the screen of her phone. Dare to humiliate her again to make themselves feel good? Then they should be ready to face the retaliation of this villainess!
"That's right. Who told you that Feifei got hospitalized because of alcohol? She was hospitalized after saving me from a molester! Get your facts straight before you accuse people of something, Feng Xue'er!"
Xi Qian didn't want to lie, but she also believed that she was partly responsible for why Su Xiaofei was rushed to the hospital that evening. If Su Xiaofei hadn't forced herself to the limit to protect her, she wouldn't end up unconscious at the hospital for three whole days.
Feng Xue'er was stunned and everyone inside the room, except Xi Qian, was also surprised by Su Xiaofei's answer. Perhaps they didn't expect that Su Xiaofei would ignore Feng Xue'er's provocation like this. Who hadn't heard about how these two young misses from two different families don't get along?
Feng Xue'er found Su Xiaofei's presence as an eyesore and obviously, she couldn't accept being told to back off by her and learn manners.
"Since you have recovered, then you wouldn't have any excuses for not finishing your homework in time, right? You can't possibly force poor Xi Qian to do all your homework again." She taunted Su Xiaofei.
By now, Xi Qian was seething in anger. She couldn't understand why they were ganging up on Su Xiaofei like this. While it's true that Feifei had gone overboard in flaunting her wealth before, so what? It was the Su family's money she was spending and not theirs!
She looked around at them, and realized that no one wanted to speak up for Su Xiaofei except her. Years ago, when she first met Su Xiaofei, it was the same. Su Xiaofei didn't have any friends and her peers always criticized her for being an attention seeker, just because she had a prettier face than every one of them.
"Hey, now, don't be rude to Classmate Su. Who knows, she might have really forgotten to do it this time." The one who spoke was named Yang Jing.. In Su Xiaofei's past life, he was one of Ye Mingyu's admirers.
