The Green Tea Omega Has Turned Bad - Chapter 43.1
Yan Xia stopped avoiding Shang Wandong.
Since she had promised the other girl, she had to keep her word.
When she and Shang Wandong returned to the classroom, many gazes followed them along the way, their expressions varying.
“Are you okay?”
As soon as she sat down, Lu Yixing looked over, her usually carefree face showing a rare trace of worry.
Yan Xia was stunned: “What?”
She instinctively thought that the matter of her conflict with Shang Wandong had already become common knowledge.
“I know that what those people are saying is all fake,” Lu Yixing patted her shoulder. “You don’t need to take it to heart.”
Yan Xia: “…What exactly are you talking about?”
Seeing her blank expression, Lu Yixing clicked her tongue: “You still don’t know?”
Yan Xia guessed: “Did something happen on the school forum again?”
“Not this time.” Lu Yixing shook her head, glanced at the front and back doors, and stealthily pulled out her phone.
“It’s in the ‘Zone’ (social space). I’ll share it with you.”
Yan Xia clicked the link she sent and raised an eyebrow: “Hucheng No. 1 High School Confession Wall?”
Lu Yixing pointed at the latest submission and said, “There, it’s this one.”
This was an account similar to a confession wall where many people would submit confessions, lost and found notices, share various gossip, or argue with food delivery thieves from a distance.
Different from the school forum, this confession wall allowed for anonymity, whereas the forum could determine real identities through student account IDs.
Yan Xia glanced at it; the number of likes on the post had already broken the 900 mark and was still trending upward.
She read the content of the submission at a glance.
“Wall, hello. I’ve held this in for a long time. I want to vent about a certain Omega in our class.
This Omega wasn’t in our class before; she transferred in later and doesn’t get along with everyone. Many people dislike her because she’s usually very fake, loves to play innocent, and has a particularly bad reputation. She constantly pesters a very popular person, A, in our class.
What makes me speechless is that this Omega used to like another person, B, in our class the kind of ‘licking dog’ (obsessive) fan. Suddenly, for some reason, she changed targets. I now reasonably suspect she’s ‘raising fish’ (keeping a pond of admirers).
Yesterday, I chatted with a few of her former classmates and found out she seems to know many Alphas who have feelings for her. Because she has some beauty, she doesn’t reject them but keeps them hanging in limbo as backups. I feel like that circle is so messy…
Yet, the moment she returns to school, she turns into a pure, good student and frantically chases after A! A has been kept in the dark and doesn’t know about these things, even going to and from school with her every day. It makes me so angry; I couldn’t help but come and expose the truth.
I hope everyone keeps their eyes open and stays away from this green tea Omega. Watch out, or your partner might be led astray by her.
Posting this with heavy censoring to vent. Staying anonymous. If you don’t like it, don’t bash.”
Yan Xia: “?”
“I’m raising fish? Keeping many backups?” She blinked. “How come I didn’t know?”
Lu Yixing comforted her: “It’s all nonsense, really crossing the line. Don’t look at the comments.”
Yan Xia: “It’s fine.”
She started reading the comments with great interest.
Strawberry Cola: Selling sunflower seeds and popcorn in the front row to watch the drama, but this “heavy censoring” is way too easy to decode…
Arrogant Grandpa: Speechless. I knew her reputation was bad, but this is the first I’ve heard of the backup thing. Heh, as expected of her.
Steal: Family, I’m laughing like thunder. I knew she’d flip her car (fail) one day. Isn’t she just cheap?
Evil Fruit: …My heart aches for the Goddess. How could she meet someone like this! Goddess, run! Stay away from the green tea!
Dried Fish Noodles: Wait a minute??? Am I the only one who doesn’t know who this is talking about?
Yi Kong replied to Dried Fish: Shh, here’s a hint: the one with a two-character name.
udbjjrgy: No, is the poster not going to provide any evidence? Isn’t this just hanging someone out to dry without proof?
Lotus Root replied to udbjjrgy: Here they come, the ‘friend group’ coming to wash the floor (clean up the mess) again. Isn’t it common knowledge she’s a green tea? What proof do you need? [Sweating emoji]
Yan Xia let out a “Hoh.”
She finally understood why so many people were looking at her with strange eyes today.
It turned out they were visiting a fugitive Sea Queen (player) from DC!
Yan Xia pulled down to refresh once, and many more comments popped up, mostly expressing joy at her misfortune.
The likes on this post had already broken 1,000; students from other grades must have seen it as well.
“I bet someone from our class submitted this,” Lu Yixing spat, saying coldly, “Damn it, if you have the guts to post, have the guts not to be anonymous! They didn’t dare post on the forum because they’re afraid of being tracked down!”
Hearing this, the people around instinctively peeked at Yan Xia’s expression.
Yan Xia turned off her phone very calmly, acting as if nothing had happened, and pulled a red pen from her pencil case.
Lu Yixing hesitated: “…You’re not angry?”
Yan Xia spun the pen: “There’s nothing to be angry about.”
Actually, high schoolers’ methods were quite childish, but this simple and crude way of spreading rumors was often directly effective at inciting the emotions of the majority, so it worked quickly.
As the saying goes, spreading a rumor takes a moment of joy, but refuting it breaks your legs. The speed of clarification can never keep up with the spread of rumors.
The person behind this post wanted to both blacken her image and drive a wedge between her and Shang Wandong.
Yan Xia pressed her canine tooth with the tip of her tongue and thought nonchalantly: Quite ambitious. I wonder which number love rival this is.
“True, you know you’re innocent,” Lu Yixing sighed. “Your mindset is really good.”
“I just don’t care.” Yan Xia propped up her chin. The spinning pen suddenly stopped between her fingers, and a sharp edge abruptly rose in her brow. “If they want to confront me face-to-face, I’m ready anytime. Hiding behind the internet to stir up trouble only makes me look down on them.”
He Xiaoyu, sitting in the front seat, stiffened her back, almost feeling a sense of being exposed.
Yan Xia didn’t say anything more after that, which made her instinctively breathe a sigh of relief.
What good mindset? She’s just good with her mouth.
He Xiaoyu couldn’t help but feel smug again.
Near the end of the early self-study period, Yan Xia went to hand in her homework, only to find that no one would take her papers.
The math class representative sat in her chair, avoiding her gaze, stammering, “You… hand it to the teacher yourself.”
Yan Xia looked at her in silence for a while, then nodded: “Fine.”
As she turned to leave, the math representative instinctively sighed in relief.
“Good job!” her deskmate whispered in praise. “I’ve been annoyed with that slag girl for a long time.”
Hearing this, the math representative couldn’t help but show a proud smile.
Seeing this, the representatives for other subjects also refused to take the homework Yan Xia brought over.
Yan Xia sat in her seat with her arms crossed, her brows furrowing slightly.
Lu Yixing was a bit annoyed: “These people are taking it a bit too far, aren’t they?”
Her back was suddenly poked gently.
Shang Wandong’s clear voice came from behind: “What’s wrong?”
Yan Xia couldn’t help it; the corners of her mouth curled up quickly.
She didn’t look back, and her indifferent expression gradually softened: “Sister, it’s nothing.”
Lu Yixing whispered, “You’re not going to tell Shang Wandong?”
Yan Xia lowered her voice and said, “She won’t believe those baseless things. I’ll handle this myself.”
Lu Yixing said blankly, “But she’ll worry about you being wronged.”
Yan Xia looked at her, her gaze almost tender: “But I don’t want her to worry.”
Lu Yixing suddenly realized Yan Xia wanted to shoulder all the grievances by herself.
She thought sincerely: If this isn’t love…
Taking advantage of the time before the first period started, Yan Xia picked up the pile of homework on her desk and went to the office.
Once her back disappeared at the end of the corridor, the classroom suddenly became lively.
“Damn, that felt so good!”
“Is this the joy of being a snowflake? I can do this!”
“Hahaha, did you see her face? Too funny…”
Amidst the celebratory atmosphere, Shang Wandong frowned and patted Lu Yixing’s shoulder.
“What exactly happened?”
Lu Yixing froze, avoiding her gaze, hesitating: “Um, Yan Xia told me not to say…”
The next second, she saw a new message pop up on her phone: “WeChat Transfer: 599.00”
Lu Yixing: …
Xia-zi, I’m sorry, she just gave too much!
Doing it properly since she was doing it at all, Lu Yixing sent the post to Shang Wandong.
In just a few minutes, she felt the air pressure around Shang Wandong behind her plummet.
Seeing this, Fu Yuan said softly, “Wandong, don’t worry. I actually think this matter is a bit too much. If we report the situation to the school, the homeroom teacher will definitely handle it.”
A few people whispered in agreement: “I think so too…”
“Yeah, this is bullying.”
“Yan Xia is actually quite nice.”
These few people sat nearby and had spent some time with Yan Xia; they felt she wasn’t at all as malicious as the post suggested.
Suddenly, a commotion came from the corridor.
“There’s a fight…”
“Holy crap!”
Shang Wandong slammed her phone down, stood up abruptly, and rushed out of the classroom.
Yan Xia walked into the office carrying her homework and politely explained her purpose to the teachers.
Although the teachers of various subjects found it strange, they didn’t say anything and nodded for her to leave.
Yan Xia wasn’t in a hurry to go. After handing in the homework, she went to Director Xu’s desk.
A black shadow fell across the desktop. Director Xu looked up, and seeing her expression, he looked surprised.
“Yan Xia? What’s wrong, did something happen?”
The young girl stood there with a straight back, her expression stubborn, but her eyes were red: “Teacher, I’ve come to report someone.”
“Report?”
Director Xu was stunned as he saw her place her phone in front of him.
“Please look at this submission first.”
The post Yan Xia showed him was the anonymous submission.
Reading through it line by line, Director Xu’s face gradually darkened.
By the end, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
Director Xu slammed the table and shouted, “This is outrageous!”
Yan Xia was standing close and was so startled by his roar that she almost sucked her tears back in.
Director Xu had a good temper and usually looked cheerful; it was rare to see him this angry.
Many teachers instinctively looked over and asked, “Director, what’s wrong?”
“Old Xu, why the big temper? Did a student provoke you again?”
Director Xu didn’t respond but said to Yan Xia: “You go back to class first. Let the teachers handle this.”
He softened his tone and said warmly, “You did very well. When such things happen, you really should tell a teacher immediately.”
“There was a student before who, like you, suffered from school bullying but didn’t dare speak up, keeping it bottled up. In the end, something happened to him before it was fully exposed.”
Yan Xia’s heart skipped: “That student…”
“Passed away.” Director Xu sighed, a lingering look of sorrow appearing on his face. “It was my oversight. If I had discovered his psychological issues earlier, perhaps it wouldn’t have ended like that.”
Yan Xia pursed her lips and said softly, “Teacher Xu, you don’t need to blame yourself too much. This wasn’t entirely your responsibility.”
Director Xu shook his head: “Sigh, let’s not talk about that. Go back to class quickly; don’t let this affect you.”
Yan Xia nodded slightly. As she turned, she heard Director Xu say again, “Yan Xia, thank you for being willing to stand up and speak about your situation. I’m very happy you could be so brave.”
Walking out of the office, there were a few people in the corridor who hadn’t entered their classrooms yet, playing around.
Yan Xia walked past them, but suddenly a strange voice called out to her: “Hey, you’re Yan Xia, right?”
Yan Xia turned back and looked at him calmly: “Is there something?”
That person was one of the Alphas who had been playing around tall, large, and very sturdy.
He looked Yan Xia up and down with a meaningful gaze and licked his lips: “You really are good-looking.”
A Beta next to him said with a smirk, “So pretty, no wonder so many Alpha backups are willing to dote on you.”
“Hey, why don’t you dump those Alphas? I’ll reluctantly take you in.”
Yan Xia looked at him expressionlessly: “If there’s nothing else, I’ll be going.”
The man suddenly felt bored and curled his lip: “Tch, what are you acting so arrogant for? You’re just an Omega.”
“Exactly, stop acting so pure. Who knows how you seduce people behind their backs…”
