Chapter 282: Can’t You Settle Them?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Jiang Ling’er smiled and said, “Ha… First of all, this matter has nothing to do with me. Second of all, you have such a big team under you. Can’t you settle this small matter yourself?”
Bai Xue was even more furious. If Li Yan’s company team was really effective, such a scandal would have disappeared long ago. Despite that, how could it become a hot rumor?
She said, “Ling’er, I’m begging you, please let me go. If you do this, you will destroy everything I have. You have never suffered the hardships of being poor, so you don’t understand how difficult it is for me. Please let me go. Don’t torture me anymore.
Her eyes were filled with tears as she begged humbly. Other than Jiang Ling’er, she really didn’t know who else could do this.
Jiang Ling’er glanced at Bai Xue. “Bai Xue,” she said calmly, “Are you sure that I’m the one behind this scandal?”
Bai Xue was speechless.
Hearing this, she was also a little uncertain. After all, other than Jiang Ling’er, she had many enemies, especially at her on-stage job in the bar. The other women had always been jealous of her, but they couldn’t possibly have the ability to frame her.
Seeing that Bai Xue was silent, Jiang Ling’er said, “Why don’t we investigate now and see if I did this? If I didn’t, I’ll directly sue you for framing me and send you to jail. How about that?”
Bai Xue looked at her guiltily. She said, “I don’t know who else would humiliate me like this.”
“What?” Jiang Ling’er asked coldly. “Do you think you can slander others just because you don’t know who the culprit is?”
Bai Xue asked, “If it weren’t you, who else could have such great abilities?”
“If I had the ability, I wouldn’t have waited until today to deal with you, right?” Jiang Ling’er said innocently.
One of the students looked at Bai Xue. Maybe she was facing a hard time, but some people deserve it at times because they asked for it.
“Bai Xue, you’re just blindly suspecting something here. It’s better for you to quickly get your workers to deal with this matter immediately,” said the student.
Of course, Bai Xue knew how to suppress the trending searches as soon as possible. However, if those good-for-nothings from Li Yan’s company had the ability to do so, they would have dealt with it a while ago. There was no need for her to say anything at all.
“Dear classmate, are you pitying the beauty?” Ling Chao said with a smile. “You can’t be like Li Yan and fall for her, okay?”
The student awkwardly replied, “I’m only sympathetic for her. After all, it’s useless to cry over this. Besides, we have a class with the Drama teacher after this.”
“Don’t you know that Bai Xue is just showing off her acting skills?” Ling Chao said mockingly. “In front of us, she arrogantly warned us, and even threatened to sue. However, in front of Jiang Ling’er, she’s submissive and pretends to be pitiful. It’s obvious that Jiang Ling’er had not done anything, but Bai Xue insisted that she had done it. You can see Bai Xue is vicious, yet you still sympathize with her?”
As he spoke, Ling Chao began to imitate Bai Xue’s actions just now. He continued, “Ling ‘er, let me go just this once. You’ll ruin me if you continue this!”
“If you didn’t do anything, you naturally wouldn’t be afraid. Just like before, when Bai Xue accused Jiang Ling’er of sleeping with Yan Jin, did Jiang Ling’er feel guilty at all? In the end, no means no. Rumors stop when it reaches the wise, yet Bai Xue is so jumpy over them. It’s almost as if there’s 300 taels of silver here!”
Hearing this, the students who helped Bai Xue felt awkward. Although they didn’t know if she was telling the truth or not, they only thought that Jiang Ling’er was definitely lying.
“Ling Chao, you’re too much.” Bai Xue said angrily, “Isn’t it normal for me to be agitated after being framed like that? Can’t I explain myself?”
“I didn’t say that you can’t explain,” Ling Chao said lazily. “However, if you can explain, then so be it. Why did you threaten us?”
Bai Xue took a deep breath and replied, “I only asked you not to slander me. Is that wrong?”
“If you have the ability, then make the rumors disappear. That way, no one will say anything about you.” Ling Chao sneered.
Bai Xue yelled, “Ling Chao!”
She did not know what to say. She could only stomp her feet angrily and run out of the classroom.
A few students who were watching the show felt bored when they saw that she had run away in anger. There was no good show anymore.
“Student Ling, I didn’t know that your mouth could be so sharp,” said Jiang Ling’er meaningfully.
Ling Chao replied embarrassedly, “No, no. I just can’t stand the way Bai Xue always frames you. Moreover, she uses this trick every time. It’s as if everyone will sympathize with her if she keeps going.”
Jiang Ling’er teased, “Hmm, but maybe I really did it this time?”
Ling Chao waved his hand and said, “That’s impossible. If you did it, you would have prepared evidence beforehand.. After all, how could you let her bite you back and cause you to be criticized?”
