CHAPTER 48: CHAPTER 48: INSTANT FACE-SLAPPING 4

The constant whispering made its way to Nianyang’s ears. She felt no emotional stirrings, and even had the urge to laugh. It’s nothing but a bunch of fair-weather friends brainwashed by a white lotus, laughing now only to get a slap in the face later.

However, Jiang Tian, unaware of the truth, heard everyone’s criticism of Nianyang, and her face turned red with anger. But, introverted and tongue-tied, she couldn’t utter a word in front of hundreds of mouths and could only shake with frustration.

Nianyang whispered, "Sweet sister, stay calm, just treat their words like farts, and gear up to enjoy the show!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Tian suddenly calmed down, believing what Nianyang said!

Gu Youlan stood quietly in place, pleased to see everyone mocking and disdainful towards Nianyang while praising herself. Simply delightful!

She wished she could join in attacking Nianyang and relish the sight of Nianyang’s embarrassment.

But seeing as her persona demanded she be Nianyang’s caring, gentle sister, she couldn’t.

Not only must she refrain from joining their mockery, but she also had to pretend to stand up for Nianyang, saying, "Classmates, don’t say such things. My sister may be a bit slow, but she is trying hard to study."

Nianyang couldn’t help but sneer, Gu Youlan truly knew how to put on an act!

On the surface, it seemed like a sister defending her younger sibling, but she was actually telling everyone that Nianyang was genuinely stupid, not able to pass exams despite her efforts!

Yang Haiyan was the first to laugh out loud, "Youlan, you don’t need to speak up for Gu Nianyang anymore, she’s just an idiot, the disgrace of our second grade. With a dumb sister like her, I truly feel sorry for you!"

Nianyang, "..."

Where did this chicken come from? So eager for attention!

Gu Youlan’s watery gaze was fixed on Nianyang, "Yangyang, Haiyan just speaks her mind straightforwardly, loves to tell the truth, don’t take it to heart!"

Nianyang expressionlessly spoke, "Sis, so in your heart, I am truly a shameful sister. Why are you pretending to be such a good sister, then? It’s really disgusting!"

Gu Youlan’s expression twisted, what did this idiot mean, tearing faces in public?

She bit her lip, her voice soft, "Yangyang, I know you’re upset because you didn’t pass the preliminary exam, and being laughed at makes you feel bad.

But you shouldn’t take it out on me. I told you at home not to come, yet you insisted on coming here to be taunted!"

The classmates, upon hearing this, looked at Nianyang with more disgust, "I never thought Gu Nianyang could be so shameless, knowing the exam result, still came to humiliate herself, getting mocked and still having the nerve to blame her sister!"

Nianyang, half-smiling, "Sis, if you truly consider me everywhere, why didn’t you come into the school with me just now? Is it because you think walking with a dumb sister like me would make you, the model student, lose face?"

Jiang Tian spat, "I find you, Gu Youlan, the most disgusting. Always sweet-voiced calling Yangyang this and Yangyang that, someone who doesn’t know might think you’re a gentle and kind sister! Yet you let your friends insult Yangyang, hypocrite!"

Gu Youlan pressed her lips tightly, as if suffering a great grievance, "Yangyang, how have you become so aggressive? How could you let Jiang Tian say such things about me? You never used to be like this!"

As she spoke, Gu Youlan’s eyes turned red, but she stubbornly held back her tears, looking pitifully pitiful, instantly stirring the protective instincts of the boys present.

"Gu Nianyang, what kind of attitude is that? Youlan is your sister, yet you are teaming up with outsiders to bully her?" A crew-cut boy jumped out to reproach Nianyang.

Nianyang knew him, this person was Zhao Yi, the class monitor of Gu Youlan’s class, secretly admired Gu Youlan for two years.
