Chapter 223
The nonexistent thing, because of someone's malice, plus the utilization of those with ulterior motives, the revelry of those bored, became something of great importance, the real facts.
It seems that looking at the flawless people high above, being pulled down, their beautiful facade stripped away, would make the public feel refreshed.
Then sigh: didn't expect she was this kind of person, tsk tsk.
Xiao Qi's two TikTok videos on the school's website, as a new student, made her a bit popular.
But as a new face, with no background or resume, suddenly rising to fame, there would naturally be a lot of unfavorable comments.
After the content on the campus forum exploded, countless keyboard warriors immediately jumped out, tsk tsk, sighed, so it turns out, sighed.
If someone had been famous for a long time, or had a very deep background and brilliant resume, probably there wouldn't be so many people, like pushing down a wall, passing by would spit, to show their own sense of justice.
"I don't know this girl of the week, but I despise her behavior."
"Girls nowadays, for money they are willing to do anything, tsk tsk..."
"She looks pretty good, didn't expect she would be this kind of person."
"Looking so good why go suck up to Koreans?"
"Voluntarily debasing herself."
"Students like this should be disciplined, expel directly, no need to keep at school at all, corrupting moral standards."
"Isn't it said school rules forbid dating, what to say about this foreign teacher?"
"Freshman and directly sending herself to the door, tsk tsk..."
"Upstairs don't kid around, girls like this where got that kind of thing."
Really made a big fuss, even Xiao Qi knew about it.
Because suddenly felt classmates looking at her a bit strange, still Rong Jiaojiao from next door ran over to tell her.
Xiao Qi's deskmate Mi'er is gossipy, but isn't in the habit of going on campus forums. After logging on she discovered, surprisingly Enhua University actually had a campus forum, inside was quite a lot of gossip.
Saying things like the most beautiful freshman goddess English major Wu Xinyue, even had photos, threads were very long.
But the hottest on top was a freshman being kept by a Korean foreign teacher, going in and out of an apartment.
When Mi'er and the others went to look at the content together, they were furious.
They were all in that foreign teacher's party group chat, and also knew the Korean foreign teacher Jin Zaiyan was simply female, that day Teacher Grace was also at Jin Zaiyan's apartment together making kimchi, there were even photos and videos.
Grace had sent it to the group chat, they had all seen it.
A bunch of foreign teachers were still there discussing when they could eat it.
Chatting all in English, Mi'er and the others wanted to cut in but it was difficult.
Mi'er decided she would argue for her deskmate, where did these people get evidence, just casually catch the wind and clutch at shadows, talking as if everyone was morally superior, justice bringers.
But she didn't expect that as soon as she went up and said one sentence: the Korean teacher is female.
She was immediately cursed a hundred times.
Directly flooded the screen.
"Poster above, don't be the girl of the week herself, there's pictorial evidence, still trying to clear the name, can't be cleared."
"Hehe, might as well say the girl of the week is male, even able to make up this kind of words."
"Just asked a computer science upperclassman to help check, the one just now saying the foreign teacher is female, directly from the girl of the week's dorm IP, you guys carefully taste it, I can only sneer..."
Mi'er was scolded until she was dizzy, usually arguing with people, her speech was fast and incisive, rarely had opponents, but online, as soon as she spoke she was scolded until dog blood covered her head.
She furiously had her roommates go up too.
But one dorm was one IP address, Wei Cheng who usually took forever to even fart out a sentence, online Yunshu was actually quite lively, but also not good at quarreling.
The next day during class, their advisor Yan Ruyu actually appeared, and called Xiao Qi out alone.
These past two days Chu Yu had been especially well-behaved, ever since getting sick, her entire person seemed even more frail, her smile shallower.
The advisor called out Su Xiaoqi, she only glanced up, then continued looking at her book, pretending she didn't see, but her heart was beating a bit fast.
Because the photo of her accepting fruit at the dorm entrance was taken by her, that day she just happened to be in the teaching building, usually she liked standing at the window, the feeling of blowing wind, that day she just happened to stand at the window, but didn't expect to see that scene, without even thinking, took a photo.
She didn't expect to see things about Su Xiaoqi when browsing the campus forum, she randomly uploaded that photo, then made a sockpuppet account, and uploaded the previous rumors about Su Xiaoqi in their class, making it seem even more plausible.
As expected the forum blew up.
The thread grew taller and taller. Chu Yu was secretly delighted, on the surface still keeping up an ill and frail appearance, delicate and weak.
Xiao Qi was a bit apprehensive, being called to talk by the advisor was a very bad experience, just like in high school, left psychological shadows.
Although the advisor in front of her was petite, seemed not much older than herself, still a bit nervous.
She actually hadn't done anything, and didn't know why the school forum would spread stuff like that, also those photos, who was so bored, going to take photos of her, just yesterday still felt the world full of goodwill, now felt full of malice, those words on the forum, some really quite nasty, she couldn't imagine what kinds of people would say things like that, but felt they were probably around the same age, because it was the school forum, main body still mostly students.
The advisor called her out, to a tea table at the end of the hallway, a small rest area, left for the teachers, during breaks teachers could come here and sit, surrounded by a row of lucky bamboos and green creepers, teachers with heavier smoking habits would smoke here, this side was by the window.
Xiao Qi sat properly and upright.
Felt the advisor's expression seemed a bit fierce today.
"Do you mind if I smoke?" the advisor asked.
Xiao Qi: Ah...
"Don't mind." She shook her head.
But her expression was a bit surprised, didn't expect girls to smoke, also didn't expect the advisor to smoke, and in front of her.
Then she saw the advisor take out a slender cigarette, lit it.
Women's cigarettes were lighter, Xiao Qi really disliked the smell of smoke to begin with, especially smoking men, get close and thick smell of smoke, very unpleasant.
But in front of the petite girl, lighting a cigarette, just lightly taking a puff, then putting the cigarette in the ashtray in front, quietly burning.
"Know why I called you out here?"
Xiao Qi continued shaking her head.
"I consulted the course instructor Teacher Wei, and foreign teacher Betty, said your English speaking is very good, there's a competition, freshman English speech contest, I recommend you participate, any issues?"
Xiao Qi blankly shook her head.
"No issues."
"Then it's settled, there's an internal speech contest at school first, the winner represents the school to participate in the finals at Qingmeng University, I'll send you the specific competition procedure on WeChat."
The advisor finished speaking, put out the cigarette, briskly got up and left.
Xiao Qi: ...
Wasn't it to discuss the forum stuff?
Looking at the extinguished cigarette in the ashtray, still two thirds left, did the teacher use this cigarette to keep time?
