"In principle, we do have a blood relationship. But as I've said before, she just came back from the countryside. Her personality has turned bad, and she's very disobedient. I've tried to help her, but it seems there's something wrong with her head. Every time, she thinks I'm trying to harm her and rejects me."
Shi Qing dimmed the brightness of her phone. Her expression was sad as she finally pointed at her head.
"I see. But the Shi family isn't short of money. Why would she still do those things?"
Hearing this, Shi Qing looked even sadder. "It's partly our fault. She spends money like water. As soon as she came back, she asked our parents for two million to go shopping. She spent millions in one day. Our parents reduced her living expenses to five hundred thousand for her own good. Who would've thought it still wasn't enough for her? So..."
There were many people standing around, and they all heard what Shi Qing said. They took out their phones and left comments immediately, exposing Shi Wan's misdeeds.
"This is too much. You're sisters, but one is an elegant socialite while the other is worse than a maggot on the ground."
"Exactly. I'm really disgusted that you have such a sister."
"Don't say that. She's just used to it. She'll change in the future, right?"
"Shi Qing, the department head is calling you!"
Just as Shi Qing finished speaking, the department head walked over with a big belly.
"Shi Qing, the principal is calling you. Come with me." The department head also knew about the online incident and comforted her, "The principal must be calling you because of Shi Wan's matter. Don't be too kind later. Just say you don't know clearly."
Shi Qing was the department's beauty. Not only was her academic performance excellent, but she also excelled in other aspects and had won many awards for the department.
She couldn't afford to have any problems.
Shi Qing's eyes flickered slightly. "Thank you, Head. I'll be careful. But after all, she's my elder sister. I don't want her to go astray."
The department head nodded appreciatively. "It's good that you have a kind heart, but she doesn't deserve it! Hurry up. Don't keep the principal waiting."
The people around watched the two leave and couldn't help but praise Shi Qing for being so kind.
With such a kind - hearted younger sister, it was really inappropriate for Shi Wan to cause trouble.
"Principal, Shi Qing is here."
The department head was stunned for a moment when he saw so many people in the principal's office. It seemed that Shi Wan had caused a big problem, and so many teachers had come.
"Good day, Principal. Good day, teachers."
Shi Qing was secretly happy inside. She suppressed the urge to smile and greeted them obediently.
Except for the principal who responded calmly, the other teachers just nodded. There was not a hint of a smile on their faces when they looked at her.
"Student Shi Qing, you must know about the recent incident regarding Student Shi Wan, right?"
Shi Qing lowered her head and admitted her mistake. "It's our fault. We didn't discipline her well."
"It's good that you know you're wrong, but I don't agree with the idea of 'disciplining her'." The principal said seriously, "We're here to talk to you about this today. Student Shi Wan was framed. We'd like you to cooperate with the school's investigation to clear her name."
"Sister was wronged?!" Shi Qing glanced at the silent Shi Wan and said angrily, "There's so much evidence online. I thought it was really Sister who had done something wrong. I didn't expect it was really a frame - up!"
They shouldn't be able to find out anything. She had already paid to buy the surveillance video from the internet café she went to. Shi Wan was definitely doomed this time!
The principal and several teachers had strange expressions, as if they were watching a show.
"Then who do you think Student Shi Wan might have offended?"
Shi Qing hesitated and looked at Shi Wan. "This..."
As if she was afraid of her.
"It's okay. Just speak boldly. With us here, no one can do anything to you."
"Sister's personality is like that. She's offended many people. I'm not sure exactly who it is. The school she was in before also expelled her because of her bad behavior."
Shi Wan listened calmly as she made up stories. Well, at least the part about fighting wasn't made up.
"So you don't know who it is either?"
"Yes, Principal. If you find out who it is, please let us know. Our Shi family will never let that person go!"
"Clap, clap, clap—"
As Shi Qing finished speaking, Shi Wan couldn't help but burst out laughing and led the applause.
The department head scolded, "Shi Wan, what's your attitude? Can't you see that Shi Qing is speaking up for you?!"
"So I'm just praising her, aren't I?"
The department head's face turned ugly. "You, this student is simply..."
"Director Liu, be nicer. Don't scare the students."
Teacher Lin glared at him.
The department head: "..."
What's going on?
Do the teachers have to protect her?
"Student Shi Qing, someone on the internet has pointed out that it was you who posted those things online and spread rumors about Shi Wan. Is that true?"
The principal felt tired. Someone clearly had all the evidence, but they still had to watch people act.
It made them old - timers have to join in the farce.
Shi Qing seemed shocked. "This is impossible! Who on earth is that person? Framing Sister is bad enough, but now they're framing me too? Do they have a grudge against our sisters? But I haven't offended anyone."
The implication was that if she hadn't offended anyone, it must be Shi Wan who had offended someone and dragged her into it.
That's the message the people present read from her words.
"This incident is serious. We've already had someone verify it. The information about you on the internet is indeed true. Student Shi Qing, has your account been lost?"
Shi Qing thought for a while and frowned. "No, my account has always been with me. It's never been lost. For some reason, I change my account every three months. I don't know if someone used this to frame me."
Shi Wan narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly. Shi Qing was a bit smart. Even if it was found out that it was her account, she could still escape this way.
However, she was still too inexperienced to play against Shi Wan.
"Really?" Teacher Lin didn't want to watch her continue acting. "Someone also sent us something. Shi Qing, your phone in your pocket has been ringing. Do you want to check it?"
"No need. It should be some junk messages. My phone number was leaked recently."
Hearing this, Shi Qing subconsciously covered the phone in her pocket. Those messages were from netizens' comments under the post. How could she let them see?
"Principal, there's another post about Shi Wan on the internet."
The department head showed his phone to the principal. He never thought this incident would lead to suspicion of Shi Qing. But now, Shi Qing was completely cleared of suspicion.
That person who slandered Shi Wan was still a bit useful.
The principal didn't even look at it. He looked at Shi Qing sternly. "Shi Qing, Teacher Lin didn't finish just now. We have a video here. Do you want to take a look?"
"Principal, isn't the appearance of the post the best evidence to clear Shi Qing's name?"
The department head was confused. Why were they still suspecting Shi Qing?
"Get out of the way and say less."
The department head retreated to the side aggrievedly. They would know how innocent Shi Qing was after they found out the truth.
"Of course. I'd like to see how far the person who framed me and Sister can go."
