Chapter 18 Campus Unrequited Love (17)
The article's title read "The Real Inside Story of the Award-Winning Couple's Breakup," and the comments on the message wall below increased at a visible rate.
In fact, Xia Mingwei didn't do anything else. She just copied the recordings of the time she met Lin Zeyang alone in the grove and the time she met Jiang Mengyi and Lin Zeyang in the coffee shop, and uploaded them.
Opening the file allows you to clearly hear the conversation of several people, revealing the whole story of "pretending to be a girlfriend".
Not long after it was posted, the post spread rapidly throughout the campus.
At the same time, various comments appeared below the post, and the wave of discussion grew stronger and stronger.
"I told you long ago that this guy was no good, but some people insisted on arguing with me and refused to believe me. See! Now it's been proven true!"
"Knowing that someone has feelings for him, he pretends not to know and then tries to take advantage of them. How disgusting! The person who likes him is so pitiful! After years of unrequited love, he ended up with such a jerk!"
"I used to think he was alright! Turns out he's another jerk. I was so blind to believe he was the campus heartthrob!"
"+1 to the person upstairs"
"Someone like this can be a campus heartthrob? It seems the campus heartthrob rankings are mostly inflated! If that's the case, I think I could be one too!"
"To be able to be in a relationship with someone like that, I can only say that you can't have two kinds of people sleeping in the same bed. It seems that Jiang Mengyi is no good either!"
"Knowing that her friend was being framed, she couldn't even stand up and say a word in support. Before all this happened, they would show off their friendship every now and then! But as soon as trouble came up, they distanced themselves. Definitely 'plastic besties'!"
"Seeing others insult Qiao Jing like that, the two of them didn't utter a single word of explanation. If you ask me, their mental fortitude is truly remarkable!"
......
Looking at the comments section, Xia Mingwei and Qiao Jing felt as if everything had suddenly taken a turn for the better. Qiao Jing would no longer have to bear these undeserved insults!
Unlike Xia Mingwei and Qiao Jing's calm and composed demeanor, Jiang Mengyi and Lin Zeyang on the other side were in complete chaos.
Jiang Mengyi stared at the abusive comments on the forum, her hand trembling as she scrolled through the mouse. Finally, she couldn't bear it any longer. Almost hysterically, she yelled at Lin Zeyang, "Tell me, why did she have that recording? Why? Why did she do such a thing in the first place? Why?"
She overturned everything in the room to the ground. Lin Zeyang tried to stop her, but he couldn't stop Jiang Mengyi, who was on the verge of madness.
As she threw things around, she yelled at Lin Zeyang, "It's all your fault! Why did you have to find someone to 'pretend to be your girlfriend'? Now you've ruined my life!"
Lin Zeyang remained silent. He knew that the whole mess stemmed from his having someone pretend to be his girlfriend, and he bore undeniable responsibility. However, under Xia Mingwei's aggressive pressure, he shamefully shirked his duty. Now, he deserved the consequences.
And so, everything that Qiao Jing had previously encountered online has now come back to haunt Jiang Mengyi and Lin Zeyang.
To Xia Mingwei and Qiao Jing's surprise, Jiang Mengyi couldn't endure such days for more than a few days. Feeling unable to bear the strange looks from others, she chose to drop out of school. Lin Zeyang, though still on campus, was in a similarly difficult situation. He not only faced pointing fingers and gossip but also frequently heard rumors. Many of his former close classmates distanced themselves from him after the incident. The once-attractive, sunny, and handsome boy became a changed person, depressed and withdrawn. His grades plummeted, and he failed many subjects. This person, tormented day after day, ultimately paid a heavy price.
The scandal involving Xia Mingwei and Qiao Jing eventually reached the school's attention. However, since the matter was already known to higher authorities, the school could no longer suppress it. Those who had verbally abused Qiao Jing and received court summons received varying degrees of punishment from the courts. Seeing this, the school also gave these individuals major demerits, recording them in their files. It seems these people will carry this stain for life!
Xia Mingwei and Qiao Jing fought a very successful battle against cyberbullying.
Just as Xia Mingwei and Qiao Jing were holding hands and on their way to a fancy meal, Xia Mingwei heard a mechanical voice in her mind: "Campus crush mission completed. Host, would you like to exit now?"
What will happen to the original owner of this body after I leave?
"After the host leaves, the original owner will retain the memories of the host's mission during this period and continue to live in the body! There will be no negative impact!" Xiao Ba explained to Xia Mingwei in detail.
"Then let's leave!" As Xia Mingwei finished speaking, she returned to the space.
Meanwhile, Xia Mingwei, now back in her body, walked along the path to the dinner party, silently saying in her heart, "Thank you, mission taker!"
Back in her space, Xia Mingwei received praise from Xiao Ba: "Host, you did a great job on this mission! The target felt that you not only saved her life but also rewrote the fate of others, so she gave you a very high evaluation!"
While praising him, Xiao Ba opened the attribute panel, "Now, host, you can choose the skills you want to upgrade!"
Xia Ming glanced at the panel, pointed to the combat power value, and said, "Add it to my combat power value!"
Upon receiving the command, Xiao Ba's mechanical voice came through again: "Host's combat power +2, skill upgrade successful!"
After upgrading their skills, Xiao Ba eagerly shared some news with Xia Mingwei: "Host, I have another piece of good news for you! Because of our outstanding performance in the mission, the Main God has granted us a cheat skill! For this 'Campus Unrequited Love' mission, we obtained the 'Truth or Dare' cheat! When using this cheat, for a certain period of time, the target can only reveal their true feelings and cannot tell a single lie!"
Hearing this news, Xia Mingwei was overjoyed, because it meant that this cheat code could save her a lot of trouble in future missions!
"Then, host, do you want to continue the mission?" Xiao Ba asked Xia Mingwei.
"continue!"
"Host, please prepare. The villainous female supporting character in the cultivation world is being teleported..."
