After Biting the Female Lead, the Vicious Female Supporting Character Turned Alpha [Transmigration] - Chapter 5: 005
“Teacher, I…” Seeing the scornful looks from her classmates, Jiang Xuenian felt it was necessary to explain.
Tan Ying said, “There’s no need to say anything else. The dean of students takes this matter very seriously and has hired a professional handwriting expert. After examination, the note indeed bears Shi Qingfan’s handwriting. Jiang Xuenian, your memory is impaired, so whatever you say, the school won’t accept it.”
The students of Class Three, through their usual interactions with Shi Qingfan, knew what kind of person she was and also understood Gong Linglang’s character.
Although Gong Linglang’s grades were average, she would definitely not be the kind of person who would let the top student in their grade help her cheat.
Nor would Shi Qingfan proactively help Gong Linglang cheat.
So even though Tan Ying said that the cheat note had been verified by a handwriting expert and indeed bore Shi Qingfan’s handwriting, they didn’t believe it in their hearts.
“Alright, this matter ends here. No one is to discuss it further. Get back to self-study.” Tan Ying’s expression was serious, and her tone was quite strict. The students only dared to feel annoyed internally, lowering their heads and sullenly starting to work on their exercise books.
Jiang Xuenian could feel the resentment emanating from all directions in the classroom, almost materializing.
“…” Can she even continue this school year???
Before the last self-study period ended, Tan Ying left briefly. When she returned, she had Shi Qingfan distribute a **Sports Day Registration Form** to everyone.
“Due to weather conditions, the sports day originally scheduled for next Friday has been moved up to this Saturday and Sunday. Tomorrow and the day after, Wednesday and Thursday, will be makeup days for the Saturday and Sunday holiday. Friday will be a normal school day. Those who wish to participate in Sports Day should choose their events and fill out the form. Please return it to me on Thursday afternoon for school arrangements.”
“The school has already notified your parents about the early holiday. You can go back to your dorms and communicate with your parents. You may leave school today or tomorrow morning.”
Tan Ying finished her announcements and left.
The classroom immediately became lively, with students discussing Sports Day.
Many also went to comfort Shi Qingfan and, incidentally, scorn Jiang Xuenian.
Jiang Xuenian remembered Shi Qingfan mentioning in the novel that her relationship with her family was poor. From tenth grade onwards, she relied on her scholarship for tuition and living expenses, no longer using money from home.
One of the penalties Tan Ying mentioned earlier was the cancellation of Shi Qingfan’s scholarship eligibility for this semester.
St. Lyceum was very generous to good students, with various scholarships totaling at least 20,000 per semester.
If Shi Qingfan had to go home and ask Shi Lian for money because of this twenty thousand, “Jiang Xuenian’s” sin would be great.
Gradually, most of the people in the classroom left. Jiang Xuenian sighed, closed her history book, and planned to return to her dorm, but then realized she had no idea where her dorm was.
Shi Qingfan left the classroom and passed Jiang Xuenian, seeing her standing by her seat, head slightly bowed, hair falling over her temples, an air of confusion about her.
“Jiang Xuenian.” Shi Qingfan didn’t know why she called Jiang Xuenian’s name.
Jiang Xuenian turned her head to look at Shi Qingfan. “Huh?” Her expression was blank.
“Let’s go back to the dorm.”
Shi Qingfan pursed her lips and said.
Jiang Xuenian immediately understood what Shi Qingfan meant.
Shi Qingfan knew she didn’t know the way, so she specifically called her to go back together!
On the way back to the dorm, Jiang Xuenian glanced at Shi Qingfan. Her aura was still cold as ice and snow, her light-brown eyes, skin like snow, and thin lips gently pursed, making it impossible to tell what she was thinking.
“Shi Qingfan,” Jiang Xuenian softly called her name, “About the note, I’m sorry.”
Jiang Xuenian felt it was necessary to apologize on behalf of “Jiang Xuenian.”
Shi Qingfan paused slightly after hearing the apology. “Didn’t you forget? It’s not your concern.”
Jiang Xuenian didn’t expect a response. Her dark eyes lit up, and she said, “Thank you for taking me back to the dorm.”
“It’s a reciprocal gesture,” Shi Qingfan said.
“This isn’t reciprocal. I caused you to have your scholarship eligibility canceled. This is clearly repaying evil with good.”
Shi Qingfan said, “You helped me on the bus.”
“You also paid for my bus fare, even though it was a waste of three yuan,” Jiang Xuenian lamented.
“The office.”
Shi Qingfan’s replies were getting shorter and shorter.
“In the office, although I wanted to help you, I had amnesia, so I didn’t help you at all. That doesn’t count,” Jiang Xuenian tallied their “reciprocal gestures,” finally concluding, “You took me back to the dorm. I owe you one reciprocal gesture.”
Shi Qingfan turned her head and glanced at Jiang Xuenian. Jiang Xuenian’s dark eyes looked at her earnestly. “As you wish.”
Shi Qingfan didn’t want to have any more interactions with Jiang Xuenian, but after seeing her eyes, her words changed course, conveying a completely different meaning.
Originally, she had intended to say, “Don’t try to be reciprocal with me anymore.”
Jiang Xuenian and Shi Qingfan returned to the dorms. The two happened to live directly across from each other. Shi Qingfan shared a room with Gong Linglang, while Jiang Xuenian had a single room.
Jiang Xuenian’s father, Jiang Kai, who was also the male lead Jiang Yue’s father, was the youngest lieutenant general in the Alliance. Since the Alliance’s formation, there had been a total of two generals, five lieutenant generals, and ten major generals.
Currently, there was only one general, already seventy years old, who was the current Alliance president.
There were still three lieutenant generals. Besides Jiang Kai, the remaining two were over sixty years old and in poor health, with old injuries from their youth recurring, causing them constant pain.
The remaining four major generals were all older than Jiang Kai.
Previously, the youngest lieutenant general was at least over sixty years old. Jiang Kai’s military achievements were outstanding, and he had been promoted to lieutenant general at just forty, which was truly exceptional.
Everyone in the Alliance knew who was most likely to succeed the Alliance president if he passed away.
The school was aware of Jiang Xuenian’s background. Jiang Xuenian was the daughter of an Alliance lieutenant general, while Shi Qingfan was merely the daughter of a wealthy Alliance merchant. If there was a conflict between the two, the school would only side with Jiang Xuenian.
The school didn’t allow students to bring cell phones. Each dorm had a landline phone. The school provided students with a phone card that could be inserted to make calls, but only to the phone numbers parents had provided to the school.
Shi Qingfan explained how to make a call to Jiang Xuenian outside the dorm room, then returned to her own dorm.
The dorms had fingerprint locks, supposedly donated by a wealthy merchant named Shi to allow his youngest daughter to attend St. Lyceum.
Jiang Xuenian used her fingerprint to enter her dorm.
Her dorm was a single room, similar to a regular bedroom, with a double bed, a desk next to it, and even a refrigerator in the corner.
*Is this the taste of privilege?*
Jiang Xuenian finished envying before remembering that she herself was now the object of envy.
Jiang Xuenian found the phone card in the desk drawer, inserted it into the slot next to the phone, and dialed the only number.
“Buzz—buzz—buzz—”
It rang three times before the call was answered.
“Miss Xuenian, Mr. and Madam have gone out on an errand. The young master is home now. Would you like me to call him to the phone?”
Jiang Xuenian instinctively sat up straighter.
“Yes, let him answer.”
During the wait, Jiang Xuenian’s heart raced a little. If that “young master” wasn’t named Jiang Yue, it would mean this wasn’t the world of the novel.
“Xuenian, what a surprise to call home?” A clear male voice came through the phone.
*Nice voice*, Jiang Xuenian thought.
“Jiang Yue?” Jiang Xuenian tentatively called out.
“Little girl, it hasn’t been long since we last saw each other, and you’re not even calling me ‘Brother’ anymore,” Jiang Yue’s voice held a faint hint of indulgence.
Jiang Xuenian: “…”
*As expected, she shouldn’t have harbored any illusions. This truly was the world of that ABO erotic novel.*
“… Brother, St. Lyceum is closing for an early holiday. Please have the driver come pick me up now.”
Jiang Xuenian thoroughly checked her school dorm room but found no useful information. She thought the Jiang family might have some clues, so she planned to go back to the Jiang family house during these two days off to search.
“Why call a driver? I just got my driver’s license. I’ll come pick you up myself.”
