Chapter 72: Chapter 072, 'cheap'
Author: DawnMachine Translation
She fainted!
Everything that had happened in the private room after that was like a dream. The next day, she was carrying a book for the art exhibition on her way to school, and her head was still a little dizzy from the night before.
When Zuo Aiai woke up in the middle of the night last night, she'd been lying on a bed in the back of the restaurant. She was wearing a neat pair of pajamas she didn't recognize, and it seemed that, at some point, she'd taken a bath.
Did she and Jin Di...really...?
Every time she thought of the scene she'd made last night, she shook her head hard in disbelief. She really couldn't handle her alcohol.
No, next time, she definitely would think twice before she drank.
"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" she suddenly cried out.
A student she didn't recognize had run into her and knocked her over in the hall. She was about to say that it was okay, but they just looked at her face blankly and left in a hurry.
She frowned.
Was it just her imagination, or were people looking at her strangely this morning?
Did something happen?
She picked up her phone and opened Baidu, thinking that that scandal from a few days ago had probably caused a stir again...
But then she saw what the first title on Baidu's hot search list was.
"The top socialite in Binhai City's secret meeting with financier has been exposed!"
Her heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly found a deserted hallway and clicked on the top page.
There was an audio clip attached to the article. As soon as she clicked play, she heard her own voice ring out.
It was the recording of the conversation she and Jin Di had had at The Green Leaf!
This conversation was obviously taken out of context. Not long after her own, she heard Jin Di's magnetic voice ring out.
"Your acting is so good, why don't I invest in a TV series for you to play with?"
The tone of a cynical financier!
She scrolled down, and sure enough, the page was filled with abusive comments.
Shameless b*tch, wh*re, sl*t, the insults were endless. She took a few glances and immediately closed the page.
'Forget it,' she told herself. 'Out of sight, out of mind.'
Now that things had come to this, she didn't have time to feel hurt. She could only allow herself to feel anger, so she could get back at whoever had done this to her.
She took a deep breath, adjusted the expression on her face, and then continued her walk across campus.
This time, the closer she got to the teaching building, the more obvious the mocking gazes were. There were even people who sneered right in front of her and called her "cheap" loud enough for her to hear.
She showed them only her indifference.
When the instructor arrived, he pulled her out of the classroom with an embarrassed look.
"Well, Zuo Aiai," he said gently, "The school curriculum hasn't been very busy recently. Actually, I suggest that you go home and rest for a while before coming back to school. How does that sound?"
She lowered her head and didn't say anything.
Despite his gentle tone, the instructor's facial expression had an ugly twist to it. "Actually, there are some rumors that are spreading around the school about you. The administration feels that this kind of news has a bad influence on the reputation of Binhai University. If you can take the initiative and apply for suspension, the administration can provide you with a certain degree of support and help guarantee that you get your graduation certificate. But if the situation continues to worsen..."
The instructor's meaning was clear. Zuo Aiai supposed that, even if she didn't apply for suspension, she would probably be expelled from the University in the end.
She did not have any particular attachment to this school. It was just that she had put so much hard work into the art exhibition, managing it every step of the way ever since her first year...
Her own hard work.
All she wanted was to finish the art exhibition before leaving.
"I can apply for suspension, or I can drop out, but not yet."
"What did you say?"
