Through the window, Zhou Bei spotted individuals entering the teaching building and swiftly seized Wen Nian’s arm, pulling her away.
“Wen Nian, hurry, come with me. Let’s head back to the dormitory and hide. Sun Min, go and stop Huang Yue. She’s absolutely shameless.”
Sun Min didn’t waste any time either. She even knelt down to tie her shoelaces. “Unbelievable. Sister Jiao’s prediction was right? How can she have the nerve to show up at school? Is it solely to capitalize on the fame?”
“Sister Jiao?” When Shen Jun heard this name, the corners of his mouth twitched unconsciously. Could this Sister Jiao be the person he was thinking of?
“That’s right. She’s the eldest sister in our fan club. You don’t know that she’s…” Sun Min wanted to continue, but she immediately stopped herself.
They haven’t told Wen Nian that they had started a fan club. They couldn’t expose themselves now.
Fortunately, Shen Jun merely arched an eyebrow without saying a word. Sun Min, feeling reassured, chimed in, “Go into hiding for a while. Sun Ying and 1 will stop them. We must ensure that Wen Nian and Huang Yue do not appear together on camera.”
Without another word, Zhou Bei pulled Wen Nian out of her seat, leaving Shen Jun alone.
In less than two minutes, a large group of people had already appeared outside the classroom.
“Is Wen Nian here?” Huang Yue shouted hoarsely. “Wen Nian, it’s Huang Yue. I’m here to apologize to you.”
Huang Yue’s tears came very quickly. After saying that, she immediately started crying. The students beside her pouted, but no one spoke to her.
Sun Ying blocked her way even more impolitely. “You’re not a student from our school. How did you get in? Don’t tell me you bribed the school or the security guards again? How can such a large group of people enter the school so casually?”
Huang Yue was on the brink of a retort upon hearing those words, but the presence of the media by her side made her recall Zhao Cheng’s advice. This was a golden opportunity for her to generate publicity. Swiftly, she adopted an expression of feigned distress.
“We’re all classmates. I just want to apologize to her. Is Wen Nian really unwilling to even accept my apology? I’ve already served time in jail and deeply remorseful for my actions. Is she still unwilling to forgive me?”
Huang Yue’s cries became louder and louder, and many people gathered at the classroom door.
Initially, the principal had already warned Li Fang not to interfere in this matter. Huang Yue’s family had donated 200,000 yuan of computer equipment to the school, so he allowed her to enter the school building. He could not let Li Fang ruin things again.
However, Li Fang still could not accept it. She walked to the classroom door angrily. “Huang Yue, what are you doing?”
Seeing Li Fang’s angry expression, Huang Yue instinctively cowered. Then, she said pitifully to Li Fang, “Mrs. Li, I’m here to apologize to Wen Nian. Even if she doesn’t forgive me, I still have to apologize.”
“Apology? Is this your version of an apology? You’ve brought a swarm of reporters to the school to create chaos?” Li Fang’s anger was palpable, her body trembling with emotion. “1 don’t care if you’re filming a movie or a TV show. If you aspire to be a celebrity, go ahead and pursue that path. But if you truly intend to apologize, why involve these reporters? I won’t say anything harsher. Leave immediately and don’t disrupt the studies of the third-year students! My advice is to focus on completing high school and putting an end to these misguided endeavors.”
“That’s right. No one knows what intention she has in mind. I think she just wants to rely on Wen Nian to become popular.”
“Fortunately, Wen Nian isn’t around. Otherwise, Wen Nian would have been taken advantage again.”
“The school’s security is getting worse. Is this place even safe anymore?”
Suddenly, a few classmates began engaging in loud discussions. Sun Min and Sun Ying joined in, their comments laced with sarcasm directed at Huang Yue, which left her visibly flustered.
She glanced at Wei Xiao, who shook his head at her. Huang Yue then left the classroom dejectedly.
However, she did not leave the school. Instead, she hid in the small forest at the entrance of the field and waited.
Half an hour later, when most of the people in the school had left, Huang Yue received Wei Xiao’s WeChat message. Only then did she sneak out of the school and get into Wei Xiao’s car.
Huang Yue hung her head and uttered in a timid tone, “I’m sorry. I arrived too late today, didn’t 1? 1 also failed to secure a shot with Wen Nian. I’m concerned this won’t attract much attention online.”
She managed to secure an early release from prison by a few months due to a deal she struck with Wei Xiao.
Wei Xiao playfully tugged at her hair, twirling it around his fingers. “Aren’t you interested in becoming a celebrity? This is a prime chance. With fame, who would dwell on your past mistakes? Moreover, you’re still quite young.” Previously, Wei Xiao’s actions would have filled Huang Yue with excitement. However, considering what he had tasked her with, an overwhelming fear enveloped Huang Yue.
“You look stunning today. It’s a shame you’re not being filmed,” Wei Xiao remarked as he released her hair. He then said, “Let’s carry out what I instructed you about last time. I will drop you off now..”
