Chapter 271: Falling from the Altar
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Wen Nian could see Jiang Chun trembling, but she quickly composed herself and smiled, âYes, youâre right. Iâve explained to my classmates just now as well. It wasnât intentional on my part.â
Shen Jun repeated once more, âYou tugged the bag, causing it to tear. Wen Nian was just reaching out to take it.â
Hearing this, Jiang Chunâs tears flowed uncontrollably. âShen Jun, weâve been good friends since childhood. Weâve known each other for so many years. Donât you trust me? Are you saying that 1 intentionally framed Wen Nian just now?â âIâm just stating the facts as I saw them,â Shen Jun frowned, feeling a bit stifled.
Jiang Chun had always been quick to take responsibility, sometimes overly kind. How could she say something like this today?
âShen Jun, weâve known each other since we were young. How can you think like this?â Jiang Chunâs tears were flowing, her voice choked with sobs, âI acted recklessly today, Iâm sorry, Iâll go back now.â
She turned around quickly, but Wen Nian noticed her steps were slow, clearly hesitating, probably waiting for Shen Jun to stop her. However, Shen Jun didnât say anything, and his expression didnât look very good.
Watching this scene, Wei Xiao suddenly understood something.
He had seen situations like this abroad. He didnât believe in purely platonic relationships between men and women, and especially not Jiang Chunâs claim that she and Shen Jun had been close friends since childhood. The Wei family had investigated this matter, and to be fair, the two of them had only been kidnapped together for a few days in their childhood.
There had been no significant interaction between their families. Jiang Chunâs words were likely an attempt to bridge the gap between her and Shen Jun.
Jiang Chun didnât expect that Shen Jun wouldnât stop her, and with many classmates still around, observing the situation, she felt her pride couldnât be salvaged. Plus, she needed to salvage her image in Shen Junâs eyes.
In the end, she turned back around and deeply bowed to Wen Nian, saying tearfully, âWen Nian, Iâm sorry. 1 let so many classmates misunderstand you just now. 1 hope you wonât be angry and wonât hold any grudges against Shen Jun because of this. Itâs all my fault.â
After saying that, she looked at Shen Jun with tears in her eyes. Seeing that Shen Jun still didnât move, she really turned around and left.
Wei Xiao wasnât planning to say anything at this point. Seeing that the situation had calmed down, he exchanged a few courteous words and left.
Due to Shen Junâs defense earlier, Wen Nian was in a good mood. She walked Shen Jun out of the school and then returned to her dormitory.
However, no one expected this scene to be posted online. Someone had taken a photo of Jiang Chun bowing and even picked up the receipt for her delivery.
Although Shen Jun had thrown the receipt away, it was retrieved from the trash, and the photo was posted on the campus forum.
The campus forum hadnât seen such a major event for a long time. Even though many people liked Jiang Chun, more were eager to see the school beauty fall from the altar.
The postâs content was straightforward, briefly explaining the situation. Despite lacking embellishments, netizens still imagined a dramatic romance rivalry between the two school beauties for the handsome guy.
No one dared to mention Shen Junâs name, but everyone knew which âShenâ they were referring to. In just an hour, the post had already garnered thousands of comments.
âCould Jiang Chun have transferred classes due to Wen Nianâs pressure? To prevent her from being close to Shen?â
âAre you out of your mind, commenter above? What kind of family is the Jiang family? The Wen family is just an ordinary one. How could that be possible? Itâs more believable that the Jiang family pressured Wen Nian into transferring.â âWen Nian has been focusing on her studies and making noticeable improvements for over a year. How would she have the time for all this?â
âWen Nian even acted in a movie recently. If she had ulterior motives, she might as well become a star. What a great opportunity! She has millions of fans! Thatâs something many celebrities donât have!â
âI think Jiang Chun is just acting innocent. Always trying to appear good to everyone, but still showing off her uniqueness. Sheâs extremely beautiful, but Iâm tired of her pretense.â
âAgree with the comment above. Sheâs scheming. Some boys just think sheâs innocent and kind. But she has finally received retribution.ââ
âI donât think sheâs as pretty as Wen Nian. Who said sheâs the school beauty? Does being a school beauty not depend on looks?â
âAlthough Wen Nian was a bit stupid for a while, the movie she acted in really caught my attention. That face of hers is undoubtedly that of a top-notch school beauty!â
âExactly! Iâve always supported Wen Nian.. Sheâs the true school beauty of our school!â
