“The dean is getting old…” Shi Xiaxia shook her head at Qiao Zihao.

She then walked a few steps forward with a normal expression, and Qiao Zihao followed closely behind her.

Shi Xiaxia looked at the strange woman who was surrounded by security guards. She was still screaming and the concentrated sulfuric acid was corroding her body.

"Who...is she?"

Qiao Zihao looked at the woman rolling on the ground with a strange expression: "You haven't offended anyone recently, have you?"

"Yes......"

Shi Xiaxia looked closely before saying, "It's Mao Xin."

"It's her?!" Qiao Zihao's eyes widened.

“Yes.” Shi Xiaxia smiled.

Mao Xin is a bully who preys on the weak and fears the strong. He actually dared to come looking for revenge at this time. It seems he was driven to desperation and could no longer survive.

Police arrived at the scene quickly to investigate the case.

There were many cameras and reporters at the venue, and many people filmed the whole incident. Therefore, after the police collected the evidence, they let them go.

The dean is getting old, and a lot happened today. After dealing with everything, he was too tired to walk.

Shi Xiaxia arranged for others to take the director and the other mothers back to rest, while she would handle the rest.

After everyone left, Qiao Zihao immediately came over: "Xiaxia! Let's go to the hospital quickly!"

He was really worried to death.

When Shi Xiaxia kicked Mao Xin, he watched helplessly as a few drops of sulfuric acid dripped onto Shi Xiaxia's leg.

But things happened so fast at that time, and Shi Xiaxia acted so quickly, that no one else noticed.

Later, Xiaxia continued to force herself to stay calm so as not to worry the dean.

"It's nothing," Shi Xiaxia said, rolling up her trouser leg to show Qiao Zihao.

On her fair calves, there were several small pits caused by concentrated sulfuric acid corrosion, but they didn't look too serious.

She explained to Qiao Zihao, "I used my spiritual power to isolate it; applying some medicine will do the trick."

"Let's go take a look!"

Seeing that the wound wasn't very deep, Qiao Zihao felt much relieved: "That's sulfuric acid. It wouldn't be good if it left any hidden dangers."

"It's okay, it's okay!" Shi Xiaxia waved her hand, not wanting to make another trip.

But in the end, she couldn't persuade Qiao Zihao otherwise, and the two went to the hospital together.

......

After the doctor examined her and prescribed some medicine, Qiao Zihao found a quiet place and had Shi Xiaxia sit in a chair.

He then squatted down, lifted Shi Xiaxia's trouser leg, and revealed the wounds caused by sulfuric acid corrosion.

"It hurts a little, Xiaxia, just bear with it."

Qiao Zihao looked up at Shi Xiaxia, his eyes filled with heartache.

Shi Xiaxia: "......"

Shi Xiaxia blushed slightly and turned her head away, whispering, "It's okay, you can apply the medicine."

The atmosphere was so awkward that Shi Xiaxia tried her best to control herself and didn't pull her leg back.

"Cough cough..."

Shi Xiaxia couldn't stand the quiet and awkward atmosphere any longer. She coughed lightly and tried to save face, saying, "I've suffered injuries far more serious than this before. This little injury is nothing..."

"Who hurt you?!" Qiao Zihao's eyes were slightly red, and his face was full of anger.

It seemed that as long as Shi Xiaxia revealed who had hurt her, Qiao Zihao would rush over and fight that person to the death without hesitation.

“Uh…” Shi Xiaxia paused for a moment, then didn’t answer.

She just misspoke and blurted out things she's experienced in her world...

How can this be explained?!

Shi Xiaxia awkwardly clenched her hands at her sides.

She forced a couple of smiles, scratching her head. "It's all in the past... It's alright... It's alright..."

"Oh!" Qiao Zihao lowered his head unhappily and continued to apply medicine to Shi Xiaxia.

He could tell that Xiaxia was just giving him the runaround, and he knew she wasn't telling him the truth.

It seems...

Qiao Zihao grew increasingly heartbroken; it seemed Shi Xiaxia didn't care about him at all...

To her... he was probably just someone who was dispensable...

Shi Xiaxia also noticed that Qiao Zihao was angry, but she didn't know what to say to comfort him.

In the end, he just scratched his head and said nothing.

Qiao Zihao quickly applied the medicine and then whispered, "Don't get the wound wet for the next couple of days. I'll go buy some scar-reducing medicine. Apply it after the wound heals, and it won't leave a scar."

"Uh......"

Shi Xiaxia looked at Qiao Zihao's aggrieved expression, like a big, abandoned puppy.

But she really wasn't good at comforting people, so she just nodded and replied, "Okay... I understand, thank you."

After Shi Xiaxia said thank you, Qiao Zihao glared at her with a face full of resentment and stormed out.

"Uh......"

Shi Xiaxia stared at Qiao Zihao's retreating figure, bewildered, wondering what she had said that had upset him again.

Such a young man's heart... it's like a needle at the bottom of the sea!

Shi Xiaxia sighed inwardly and then chased after him.

......

Since Shen Qingqing was livestreamed by Shi Xiaxia at the "Film and Television Awards," she has retreated back to the Shen family home and hasn't left the house since.

She doesn't have enough luck right now, so even if she wanted to change something, she's powerless to do so for the time being. She can only hide in the Shen family and avoid looking at the online topics that criticize her.

"You bitch! You bitch! Why?!" Shen Qingqing screamed in despair, smashing everything she could in the room.

She learned that the Shen family was holding a press conference today, so she went online to check it out and found out about the compensation the Shen family was giving Shi Xiaxia.

Shen Qingqing was extremely jealous.

She had lived in the Shen family for over twenty years, and the Shen family had never given her so much!

How dare that bitch Shi Xiaxia get so much money?!

After scolding Shi Xiaxia, Shen Qingqing started scolding the Shen family.

"I knew they didn't consider me a member of the Shen family! They're willing to give so much to that bitch Shi Xiaxia, but not to me! Sure enough! Not a single one of them can be trusted!"

At this moment, Shen Qingqing completely forgot that what she had received was exactly the same as what Shen Fuxi, Shen Yu, Shen Shujie and others had received.

Shen Qingqing vented her anger with a ferocious expression, but before she could finish, she noticed the change in Shen Yi during the live broadcast.

Shen Qingqing's eyes widened instantly. She rushed to the TV and stared at Shen Yi, who was crying her eyes out on the live broadcast.

"No...this isn't right..."

Shen Qingqing's heart pounded in her chest. She realized that Shen Yi's current state was exactly the same as Shen Yi's behavior after the show ended!

Is she going to betray herself too?!

"System! System!"

Shen Qingqing shouted desperately, "Why did Shen Yi's 'Wholehearted Devotion' fail?!"
