Chapter 114: Chapter 114: But You Are Not Him (3)

Yu Xiaoqin’s face turned ashen, unable to utter a single word in response to the surrounding questioning.

It was Shen Tingting who quickly stepped forward to smooth things over, "Professor, Xiao Qin was just anxious. In her haste, she mistakenly thought it was Qiao Mo who pushed me."

Professor Han glanced at Shen Tingting, then his gaze fell on Yu Xiaoqin as he coldly said, "Yu Xiaoqin, as a student, instead of diligently studying, you go around spreading rumors! Go write a 5,000-word reflection and submit it to me by the end of the day."

"Professor... I!"

However, Professor Han interrupted her once more, "And also, apologize to your classmate Qiao Mo immediately."

Qiao Mo looked at Yu Xiaoqin in front of her with a faint smile. No wonder Shen Tingting was so clever; she never once said that Qiao Mo pushed her. Now that it’s been exposed, it’s only Yu Xiaoqin who has to take the blame!

Yu Xiaoqin’s face turned livid, and her hands clenched tightly. Staring at Qiao Mo, she couldn’t bring herself to speak.

Damn it!

She originally intended to ruin Qiao Mo’s reputation and curry favor with Shen Tingting. Who knew there would be surveillance here!

Shen Tingting once again tried to play the good cop, "Xiao Mo, Xiao Qin was just anxious and caused a misunderstanding. Let me apologize to you on her behalf, okay? Please, don’t hold it against her."

Qiao Mo curled her lips, "When have I ever blamed her?"

Shen Tingting was taken aback, momentarily speechless.

Qiao Mo continued, "Isn’t fabricating lies out of thin air something that deserves at least the most basic apology? Or are you the kind of friend who only cares about her dignity but doesn’t remind her to discern right from wrong?"

Qiao Mo was aggressive, having waited for Shen Tingting to speak up.

Her target was never Yu Xiaoqin; after all, to her, Yu Xiaoqin was just a fickle bystander.

It was Shen Tingting who was the thorn in her heart.

The deepest harm always comes from the betrayal of a trusted person.

Shen Tingting’s eyes welled up again, and she quickly explained, "That’s not what I meant. I just thought Xiao Qin didn’t do it on purpose."

"Just because it wasn’t intentional doesn’t mean she shouldn’t be responsible for her mistakes, does it?" Qiao Mo’s eyes grew colder.

Professor Han glanced at the time, then looked at Yu Xiaoqin again, "Alright, let’s not waste any more class time. Yu Xiaoqin, if you’re not going to apologize, don’t bother participating in the upcoming design competition. To achieve success, you must first learn to be upright."

Professor Han’s harsh words made Yu Xiaoqin’s heart tighten.

Professor Han held a significant position in the design and fashion world. If he truly questioned her character, she would likely face a lot of trouble in the future.

Yu Xiaoqin gritted her teeth, reluctantly looking at Qiao Mo.

Finally, she lowered her head, "Qiao Mo, I’m sorry. It was my misunderstanding about you."

Her apology was within Qiao Mo’s expectations; after all, Yu Xiaoqin wasn’t one to have any backbone.

"Alright, everyone, let’s head into class."

Professor Han walked into the classroom first, but the murmurs around the room started again.

"Such a fuss, acting like she’s been terribly wronged just because she fell. It wasn’t even that serious."

"Exactly... but falling for no reason, who knows what’s wrong with her."

A few girls whispered among themselves as they walked into the classroom, successfully making Shen Tingting’s face turn a shade darker.

Qiao Mo slowly walked up to Shen Tingting, speaking coolly, "Looks like even heaven isn’t on your side. What are you going to do about that...?"

Shen Tingting maintained her smile until Qiao Mo walked past her, and only then did her smile gradually fade.
