Obsessive Tycoon and His Swan Girl-Chapter 27 - Ill Compensate Her
Chapter 27: Chapter 27 I’ll Compensate Her
Chapter 27 -27 I’ll Compensate Her
The answer was within Jiang Zhe’s expectations, and she responded indifferently, “Mhm.”
“Don’t worry, baseless slander won’t work,” Luo Qiaoyin comforted her.
…
When Jiang Fanyue returned to the Jiang Family, her arm hurt so much she couldn’t lift it, she couldn’t even pick up chopsticks.
Liang Jinlan asked her, “What’s wrong?”
“Mom, it’s nothing, just a bit tired from PE class.”
“You mustn’t hurt your arm, don’t forget where your strength lies. Auntie Zhang, bring some medicated wine for Fanyue. If it doesn’t get better, we’re going to the hospital.”
“It’s fine, it’s not a big issue,” Jiang Fanyue said with a smile.
Although the pain was intense, she truly didn’t dare to go to the hospital, having suffered at the hands of Jiang Zhe before.
There were two times when she had conflicts with Jiang Zhe, her arm hurt unbearably, but hospital checks showed nothing wrong.
She secretly regretted, she shouldn’t have talked to Xiao Meng today.
“Mom, why didn’t you go play mahjong?”
“Don’t mention it, Mrs. Chen had agreed to come play today, but she didn’t turn up, claiming her arm was broken. Yet, the hospital couldn’t find anything wrong. She even said it was Jiang Zhe’s doing. Luckily, Jiang Zhe is no longer my daughter, or else I would have to apologize to Mrs. Chen today. Really bad luck.”
“Mrs. Chen’s arm hurts too?”
“Exactly.”
“Then how did she come into conflict with my sister? Did she go to the school, or what?” Jiang Fanyue’s ears perked up, she wanted to know why the issue with Xiao Meng hadn’t blown up.
According to her guess, Xiao Meng should have been expelled by now.
Liang Jinlan spoke in a hushed tone, “It’s all about Xiao Meng. That day I told her about why Xiao Meng was driven out of the Jian Family, and she said she wanted to trouble the school. But let me tell you, Fanyue, don’t ever bring up Xiao Meng’s issue again.”
“Why not?” Jiang Fanyue didn’t understand.
“What else could it be, it’s said that the whole issue is baseless and involves minors. There’s a prominent lawyer involved now, and a letter of complaint was issued, threatening to deal with the rumor-mongers according to the law of defamation. Not to mention others, even Mrs. Chen was too scared to continue this topic today and could only criticize that Xiao Meng’s poor emotional state could affect the other students. You should stop mentioning it too.”
Jiang Fanyue had not expected the matter to turn out this way.
Could there really be a lawyer helping Xiao Meng like that?
Liang Jinlan saw her confusion, “Xiao Meng has no such power, obviously it must be the first middle school pulling strings for their own reputation to find a lawyer.”
Jiang Fanyue thought the same. After all, Jincheng’s top middle school wouldn’t want its name tarnished.
It was not until the next day when Jiang Fanyue heard that Xiao Meng still needed to pass the monthly test to stay in the school that a weight lifted from her heart.
So it seemed, the school’s protection of Xiao Meng was merely a temporary solution.
“It’s still unclear what the problem is, but Xiao Meng must score at least six hundred points in this month’s test to remain in the school.”
This news soon spread throughout the whole school.
“I bet it’s because her current grades are way behind, and even the school can’t overlook it.”
“I shared a dorm with her, and let me tell you, her mood is often inexplicably low, and she frequently has nightmares that wake everyone up. During the time I lived with her, I never had a good night’s sleep. Obviously, there were enough complaints, so the school started to take this matter seriously. It’s better to treat such illness early on, we are all in our senior year, we can’t let her trouble everyone else, right?”
The crowd buzzed with discussions.
Gu Jiashun listened with a somber face.
Everyone accepted the explanation that Xiao Meng had a psychological condition that was affecting the other students, which was why he was persuaded to leave in such a manner.
“The person who spreads rumors like those is the sick one!” Xia Enci said angrily, “Everyone better shut up.”
The students from the unnamed class immediately closed their mouths and spoke cautiously, “I was just repeating what some people from Class A said…”
“Who asked you to repeat it? Parroting what you hear sounds good to you, huh?” Xia Enci berated them, then softly comforted Xiao Meng, “Xiao Meng, don’t listen to their nonsense.”
Song Xingyu stood up, his ever-present skull print on his clothes seeming particularly defiant, “You, you, you—come outside with me!”
“Song Xingyu is finally acting like a human being,” Xia Enci murmured quietly.
Xiao Meng felt warmth in her heart. So much had happened, but there were more people helping her than those who hurt her, and just like Doctor Lu said, she was gradually finding her own strength.
When Jiang Zhe walked into the classroom, all the commotion inside had already subsided.
She glanced around and didn’t hear the rumors she had expected.
“Xiaozhe, I don’t quite understand this problem,” Xiao Meng said softly.
“Leave it for now, I’ll find you a solution later,” Jiang Zhe said offhandedly.
She sat down, her long legs casually bent under the desk, took out her phone, and continued to reply to Qin Jingchen.

Qin Jingchen had messaged to tell her that the lawyers had everything in place. There wouldn’t be a whisper of slander one shouldn’t hear.
Since Qin Jingchen was now aware of Xiao Meng’s situation, it was inevitable he also heard about her needing to take exams.
“Do you need a tutor?” he asked.
“We’ll talk about that later,” Jiang Zhe glanced over the practice book briefly.
She clicked on Lu Xiu’s profile picture and made a temporary appointment for a one-hour psychological consultation for Xiao Meng.
After school that afternoon, Jiang Zhe took Xiao Meng out of the school gate.
When Gu Jiashun saw Jiang Zhe’s figure, he hesitated for a moment before stepping forward to block her path.
“Xiao Meng, could you help me buy a bottle of water?” Gu Jiashun handed over a bill.
Xiao Meng shook her head; she was afraid of being at a disadvantage without Jiang Zhe around.
“Xiao Meng, this is school, and you haven’t even walked out of the school gates yet!”
“Go,” Jiang Zhe said.
Only then did Xiao Meng turn around and head to the convenience store, without taking the money from Gu Jiashun.
“If you have something to say, just say it,” Jiang Zhe said with impatience in her eyes.
Gu Jiashun knew her temper was inversely proportional to her appearance, but the angrier she got, the more attractive she seemed, which sometimes made him unconsciously want to provoke her.
Nevertheless, he didn’t wait too long before speaking up, “About Xiao Meng’s situation, I owe you an apology. I had absolutely no idea that Lady Chen would come to the school causing trouble, and I never intended to leak anything about Xiao Meng, leading to such serious consequences…”
Seeing that Jiang Zhe didn’t respond, he continued, “Look, tell me how I can make up for this, and I’ll make amends to her. Jiang Zhe, please accept my apology.”
Jiang Zhe’s expression was cold and indifferent, her eyes seemingly clear, but the emotions behind them were impenetrable to Gu Jiashun.
She motioned with her finger, and Gu Jiashun realized she wanted the glass water bottle in his hand, so he immediately handed it to her.
Jiang Zhe took it, looked at it with interest, then let go, and the glass water bottle fell to the ground, shattering into pieces.
