Chapter 502: Confirming the Rumors

The school bell brought Wen Miao back to reality. She quickly stuffed her phone back to the two girls and rushed towards the homeroom teacher’s office.
Their first class was geography, and the homeroom teacher should be waiting for her in the office.
As she opened the door, the noisy discussions inside seemed to pause as if someone had pressed the pause button.
The homeroom teacher was buried in the midst of the crowd, struggling to lift his head towards her, eyes filled with sympathy. “Miaomiao, come here.”
The teachers gathered around the office desk voluntarily made way for her, dispersing, but all their attention was focused here.
Wen Miao’s face turned pale, realizing what the teacher was about to say.
Sure enough, the first thing the homeroom teacher said was to comfort her not to be afraid.
“In situations like this, both the teachers and the school will stand behind you. Don’t worry; the school won’t abandon you. bravely tell the police everything, and we will support you.”
“Teacher.” Wen Miao forced down a wave of dizziness in her mind, steadied herself, and said, “That day, they only took some money from me, and I got beaten up a bit. Nothing else happened.”
The homeroom teacher was visibly skeptical. “Miaomiao, 1 know you must be very scared right now, but you have to bravely come forward and tell the truth. If you don’t speak out about what has happened to you, even if we want to help you, we won’t know where to start!”
“Teacher, I’m telling the truth.” Wen Miao said calmly, “If I really had been bullied as you think, 1 would have called the police that night.”
Seeing persuasion was futile, the homeroom teacher wore a helpless smile. “Forget it, you can go back for now. If you change your mind, you can come to me anytime.”
Wen Miao numbly exited the office.
Now, in addition to feeling inexplicable, she also felt somewhat fortunate.
Fortunately, the video exposed on the forum was only about her.
If Zhang Yue came to school and heard what those two girls said in the restroom just now, she would not be able to bear it.
However, what she had envisioned quickly became a reality.
As Wen Miao passed by the neighboring class, she happened to see Zhang Yue rushing to school with her backpack.
In an instant, the glimmer of luck in her heart turned into panic.
Wen Miao, with a terrified expression, opened her mouth wide. “Why are you coming to school? Come with me!”
She rushed over to grab Zhang Yue’s hand.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Yue reached back and held her hand, eyes filled with the sympathy Wen Miao saw so much today. “Miaomiao, I’m still worried about you coming to school alone. After what happened, 1 must stay by your side.”
Wen Miao, somewhat dazed, couldn’t react. “What are you saying?”
With a gentle smile, Zhang Yue turned to the teacher at the front of the class, about to start the lesson. “This morning, I already got permission from the homeroom teacher. I’ve moved all my classes to Wen Miao’s class today. Sorry for disturbing the class.”
After saying that, she bowed deeply to the teacher.
The teacher, aware of the video incident, smiled understandingly. “Since the homeroom teacher has agreed, you can go. Take good care of Wen Miao, my student.”
“Thank you, teacher.” Zhang Yue breathed a sigh of relief, affectionately leading Wen Miao towards the entrance of her own classroom.
“Yueyue, what’s going on? Are you feeling unwell somewhere? If your body hasn’t fully recovered, you don’t have to force yourself to come to school.” Wen Miao is still a bit puzzled.
She thought Zhang Yue came to school to accompany her out of concern, but upon closer reflection, something seemed off in the words Zhang Yue exchanged with the teacher just now. She sounded as if the real victim was Wen Miao!
But didn’t Zhang Yue’s mother say this morning that Zhang Yue wasn’t feeling well and didn’t want to see anyone, so she wouldn’t come to school temporarily?
In the short span of less than an hour, what exactly happened?
Before she could figure out the reason, she had already been pulled into the classroom by Zhang Yue.
Today, Mei Shu didn’t come, so Zhang Yue moved Mei Shu’s chair over and sat next to Wen Miao, showing a gentle smile. “Miaomiao, don’t be afraid. I will always be with you.”
Her voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just enough for everyone in the class to hear.
Wen Miao glanced at the sympathetic looks of others out of the corner of her eye, finally realizing that, at this moment, due to Zhang Yue’s exceptionally caring actions, the rumors of her being assaulted by multiple people that night were indirectly affirmed.
But Zhang Yue, who was actually harmed, had now become the good student who wouldn’t abandon her classmates.
Wen Miao suddenly found it somewhat ironic, but she had no intention of exposing the truth.
She didn’t understand why Zhang Yue would suddenly do this. She even suspected that Zhang Yue might have orchestrated the release of that video. However, even if betrayed, Wen Miao wanted to hear a firsthand explanation from Zhang Yue.
After class, Wen Miao grabbed Zhang Yue’s hand and pulled her to the rooftop of the teaching building.
There were no hidden corners here, and there was no need to worry about anyone eavesdropping.
“Why are you doing this?” Wen Miao confronted her directly..
