The Ugly Girl Gained a Beauty Purchase System-Chapter 61: Like Me

A malicious intent attacked her from behind. She could feel that gaze carrying a strong possessive desire, as if wanting to devour her whole.

"He looks a bit abnormal." Pandora said.

"Maybe it's his time of the month."

She crumpled the paper in her hand into a ball and threw it backhandedly into the trash can.

Yan Xi didn't turn around or respond to him, as if completely ignoring this man who disgusted her.

She could probably guess his thoughts.

For someone who had always regarded beautiful lambs as hunting targets, the consequences of a failed hunt were either giving up or redoubling efforts.

The moment he regarded her as a lamb, it was destined that she would not boost his affection value. Have you ever seen someone fall in love with their own prey?

Rather than prey, it was just food to be tasted on the table. After the initial excitement, it would become a deathly bland taste.

That's why the process of seeking but not getting was the most appealing climax of the entire hunt... What people want most is often unfulfilled desires. Once desires are satisfied, they cease to be desires anymore.

"Yan Xi, the teacher wants you to go to the office." Guan Yongyan suddenly came in from outside and called her.

Tu Qingluan watched Yan Xi's departing figure, a sense of inevitability hidden in his eyes.

"Yan Xi, is what's said in the post true?"

As soon as she entered, she saw Peng Haiyang looking at her sternly.

"Teacher, may I ask what this is about?" Yan Xi looked at him calmly.

Seeing her seeming obliviousness, Peng Haiyang didn't know if she was lying or really unaware.

"Tell me honestly, where did you go during your absence these days?"

Where did she go?

Of course taking care of her emo brother and handling her mother's affairs.

"Why do you ask? Teacher, I was at home these days." Yan Xi still had a polite smile.

Peng Haiyang saw the obedient, pleasing smile he used to see on the girl's pretty face, but at this moment, he found it extremely annoying!

Peng Haiyang took out his phone and threw those photos in front of her unceremoniously.

"You still dare to lie to the teacher!"

Fury was written all over Peng Haiyang's face. He had originally harbored a shred of hope for the girl before him, but Yan Xi's lies had directly provoked his anger.

"What's this huh? Take a look yourself!"

In the few blurry photos Peng Haiyang showed her, one showed her hugging Zhou Zhou at the ball that night, both in an embrace, and Zhou Zhou looking somewhat startled but not rejecting it.

Another showed her walking home with Tu Qingluan after school, the girl in the photo seeming to be whispering intimately to the boy, as if having kissed the boy's face.

The last one was even more preposterous, showing her being force-fed alcohol at the KTV, pressed down by several tall girls. But the angle of this photo was obscure, only revealing half of her struggling face, while the other people were unrecognizable, and the girls' positions had become those of boys.

Ah this...

These photos were all very fuzzy, as if captured from videos.

If one just looked at these photos, she almost felt that she was some mermaid queen, seemingly having an affair with everyone in the photos,

"Is that you in the photos! Why did you go to the bar? Huh? Do you know such places are not for students like you, and who are those indecent people in the photos?"

"Do you know what the post says? Huh? It says you're a bar hostess pretending to be a high schooler, and that you.... see for yourself!" Peng Haiyang seemed unable to continue.

Peng Haiyang opened another post and shoved it in her face for her to see.

The post was titled "Shocking! The true face of the popular high school girl online is actually...."

The post said someone with the ID Young Master Ben Shao wanted to expose the true face of a student from a prestigious high school.

And this prestigious high school student was her, Yan Xi.

According to him, ever since she transferred, she always dressed provocatively on purpose to seduce the boys in class. Her purpose for coming to this school was to still frequent bars and KTVs and such places that students should not go, and she also had an intimate relationship with more than one boy.

In the post, she was portrayed as a scheming girl who liked messing around with relationships, wore revealing clothes and had no shame.

Some even suspected in the comments that she was actually a bar hostess pretending to be a high schooler! And this comment was directly upvoted to the top.

Because Yan Xi and Ji Yao's livestream was viral online for a period, and Yan Xi and Ji Yao were even called "most beautiful high school girls" "goddesses" by some netizens, after this post's exposure, aided by their previous popularity, the post also gained some traction.

In this era where online traffic is paramount, posts of this nature are undoubtedly the most provocative. Nothing is more exciting than seeing a goddess who was once pretty and adored by all being pulled down from her pedestal, with everyone pointedly telling her she is a slut!

This stark contrast full of malicious intent is the reason that can bring people a sense of ecstasy and carnival, deification can make people feel excited, and so can desecration, or even more so, being even more stimulating.

"Just a few weeks ago the grade had a meeting commending you, saying your chemistry contest scores were good. And now you've caused something like this!"

He was very pleased earlier to have brought out such an outstanding student, and an exceptional one at that, as only he knew she was related to the principal, so looking after her well could also score points with the old fox principal.

"With it causing such a big stir now, I don't care who the publisher is, it's still damaging the reputation of Qingteng! How do I explain this to your uncle!?"

Uncle?

Yan Xi suddenly recalled the lies she had told before.

The girl before him suddenly grabbed Peng Haiyang's hand, her eyes reddening, seeming rather flustered as she said:

"Teacher, you didn't tell my uncle right? I...I... These photos are fake.... It's not actually like this...."

".....I didn't tell him, but how do you plan to deal with this matter?"

Your uncle probably can't protect you either. He's at a critical juncture campaigning, if any relationship with Yan Xi is revealed, it may affect his chances.

And the scandal also involved Zhou Zhou and Tu Qingluan, these two candidates. With their families' means, they definitely won't let their own children lose footing at such a critical juncture in the contest, who knows what they'd do.

The principal, that old fox, didn't even ask about the current situation with his own niece, he probably wants to abandon his niece as a pawn.

If he doesn't even cherish his own niece, why should an outsider like him care on her uncle's behalf.

"Yan Xi, it's not that I don't want to help you, if this matter can't be suppressed in the end, I'm afraid you'll have to leave this school."

Yan Xi had just left the office and walked a few steps when a tall figure blocked her path, surrounded by a few girls.

[Ah this....why does this look so much like a scene in the West District, isn't this the East District?] Pandora said as she saw the familiar scene.

"Yan-Xi." The person before her called out viciously to her, directly grabbing her collar.

"Isn't Ji Yao's current state....your doing? Huh?" Du Le's eyes were fierce. Ji Yao hadn't come to school for almost a week, no matter how she called, Ji Yao refused to answer.

Until she could no longer stand it and went to Ji Yao's home.

Only to find that she had been home all along, but stubbornly refused to open the door for her.

When she had exhausted all means, and was about to violently dismantle the battered door, Ji Yao finally had no choice but to open for her.

Only then did she discover Ji Yao had a scar on her left cheek that was still healing and scabbing. Although Ji Yao hadn't cut too deep that day, just very superficial, it still wasn't something that could fade away in a short while.

"There's surveillance on your upper left." Yan Xi saw the person's face and was not surprised at all, and reminded the other party that this was the East District, and moreover at the office entrance.

"I'm asking...if it was you! She was last with you!"

Du Le agitatedly said to her, but not too loudly, seemingly also not wanting Ji Yao's affairs to be discussed by others.

No matter how she asked about the scar, Ji Yao always refused to say, and her whole person was very haggard, as if she had lost her soul.

"Didn't she tell you?" Yan Xi was in a very bad mood at this time. Her quarrel with Du Le in the hallway had attracted more and more onlookers, and she could almost hear the gossip about her.

"I heard she was playing multiple guys at once..."

"Goodness, she actually got into a conflict with Du Le. Could it be that Du Le was fed up with this kind of person and was standing up for justice for us?"

"Yan Xi looks pretty on the outside, but she's so scheming on the inside... I've always said Ji Yao is much prettier than her, and Ji Yao is kinder too!"

"Right... who knows how many people have played with her already...disgusting!"

...

This outright malice, ever since Yan Xi had put on this new face, although it wasn't the first time she had experienced it, this time the intensity was completely different from before.

In the past, even if some people disliked her, it never reached the point of malicious ridicule like today. At the very least, in the past, there would always be people who, for the sake of her pretty face, would say some good things about her.

"So you admit that Ji Yao's...was your doing?" Hearing her words, Du Le seemed to understand something in an instant. She became agitated again and tightened her grip on Yan Xi's collar.

Yan Xi frowned. She could feel very uncomfortable right now.

Let alone saying it wasn't her who harmed Ji Yao's face, even if it was, what could Du Le do to her?

It was Ji Yao who schemed against her first, so as retribution, of course she had to return the favor...

After all, she was a polite, well-mannered girl.

But politeness has its limits.

Right in front of Du Le, Yan Xi took out her phone and tapped it a couple times.

The call connected very quickly.

Without waiting for the other party to speak, Yan Xi said to Du Le's nearly distorted face, word for word:

"Ji Yao, keep your dog on a leash."

She was really annoying.

Yan Xi twirled the pen in her hand boredly. She had just escaped from Du Le, and then for a whole day, she was surrounded by malicious gossip, enveloped in it, like being soaked in disgusting juices, rotting away.

Whether in or out of class today, just the malicious and suggestive looks she received must have numbered at least in the hundreds.

Some male students even blocked her path when she was going to the bathroom, ogling her with lustful eyes and cracking dirty jokes in front of her.

Yan Xi ignored them all. She wasn't in a hurry, but Qi Yili and Shen Qiuyi were extremely anxious.

Shen Qiuyi even slammed her hands on the desk and stood up, cursing at and scolding those who said such disgusting things to her.

Qi Yili, on the other hand, spent the whole day chatting with her and shielding her from those disgusting gazes.

As for Zhou Zhou, he didn't show up at all today, and who knows where he ran off to.

Finally, school was over, and people around her packed up their things and went home one after another, but Yan Xi didn't move an inch.

"Go home first, Qi Yili. Shen Qiuyi, you should go home too. I have something to take care of." Yan Xi turned her head and looked at Tu Qingluan, who had sat there watching her all day without moving much.

Now was finally the best opportunity for her to vent. Wasn't it?

"Sis." Qi Yili came forward and grabbed her hand.

"If you're not leaving, then I won't leave either."

Qi Yili pushed his glasses up, seeming to sense Yan Xi's thoughts. His expression was also very cold as he looked at Tu Qingluan.

Qi Yili didn't want to leave. He could probably guess one or two things about what happened today.

Who harbored such great malice towards Yan Xi - with just his toes he could easily guess who it was.

"I said go home." Yan Xi reiterated, her expression just as cold.

Tu Qingluan's expression didn't change one bit. He still looked at Yan Xi with a smile, but his eyes held only her reflection.

"Yan Xi, let's go home together..." Shen Qiuyi didn't know what was going on, but she knew that Yan Xi shouldn't get too close with those people right now, and they needed to properly deal with today's incidents as well.

"You and Qi Yili can go together. I'll call you tonight, okay?" Yan Xi placated Shen Qiuyi, but her tone was very resolute.

Under Yan Xi's words, the two still left the classroom.

At this time, the only ones left in the entire classroom were Yan Xi and Tu Qingluan.

"It was you who did it, right?" Yan Xi looked at him calmly, her tone tranquil, as if stating a fact.

"Those photos and posts were uploaded by you, along with those rumors about me..."

As Tu Qingluan looked at her calm face, he couldn't keep calm at all inside. The desires growing madly inside him at this moment were almost at their peak.

He didn't know what to say, much less dare to guarantee what he might do the next second.

"Why don't you answer me, Tu Qingluan..."

Seeing that the other party still didn't respond, Yan Xi suddenly took a step forward.

Closing the gap between them to an extremely close distance.

"Do you...like me that much, Tu Qingluan?"

The girl suddenly smiled.
