“I don’t want to hear your apology. I want you to apologize to my boss. Do you understand?”

If Zhu Sha wasn’t a girl, An Yang would have definitely punched her already. He wouldn’t have spent so much time talking to her.

“I understand, I understand!” Zhu Sha cried out as she nodded her head desperately.

“Well, if you understand, why don’t you go and apologize to her right now?” An Yang said as he slammed his hand on the desk next to her.

This made Zhu Sha so frightened that she trembled. She continued to tremble as she made her way to Jian Yiling’s classroom under the supervision of An Yang and his lackeys.

As soon as she entered the classroom, Zhu Sha immediately apologized to Jian Yiling who was doing her homework in the classroom:

“Jian Yiling, I know I’m wrong. Please forgive me.”

“I don’t forgive you,” Jian Yiling replied. Jian Yiling did not care about Zhu Sha’s feelings at all. She wasn’t going to worry about Zhu Sha losing face in front of everyone else.

Zhu Sha asked in a sobbing voice: “Then what do you want me to do before you will forgive me?”

“I won’t forgive you,” Jian Yiling replied. She didn’t even raise her head as she said this.

“I… I…” Zhu Sha stuttered. She didn’t know what to do. Then, she turned her head to look at An Yang who was next to her: “Brother Yang, I apologized… However, she… She won’t forgive me… I…”

“Well, you don’t know how to continue apologizing if she doesn’t forgive you? Do I need to teach you how to ask for someone’s forgiveness?”

An Yang was sitting on top of a desk. He had his arms crossed in front of his chest and appeared quite harsh and unreasonable.

Zhu Sha had no other choice but to continue apologizing to Jian Yiling: “Jian Yiling, please tell me what I have to do before you’ll forgive me. I’ll do as you say.”

“Quit school or disappear. Choose one,” Jian Yiling replied.

The tone of her voice was very calm. It didn’t seem like she was angry at all.

Upon hearing these words, Zhu Sha couldn’t stop her tears. Her round face was covered with tears as she said: “You… What kind of request is this? You… You’re basically asking me to die.”

Then, Zhu Sha began to cry even louder.

The entire class was watching this scene.

However, none of them could sympathize with Zhu Sha. This was because they had all seen the rumors that Zhu Sha had spread on the campus forum.

She had to bear the consequences of her own actions.

She should have thought about the consequences when she had made those slanderous remarks about Jian Yiling in the first place. No one could hide behind a false identity for their entire life.

Jian Yiling looked at Zhu Sha for a moment before she looked at An Yang: “She’s too noisy.”

An Yang asked Jian Yiling: “Shall I ask her to leave then?”

Jian Yiling nodded.

And thus, An Yang began to shoo Zhu Sha away: “Shoo, shoo. You don’t even know how to apologize. The only thing that you know how to do is cry. However, your tears are worthless. I’m tired of even looking at you.”

Not only did Jian Yiling find Zhu Sha annoying, but An Yang himself also found Zhu Sha annoying.

“Then, then… Brother Yang… I…” Zhu Sha said as she looked at An Yang with eyes that were filled with fear. She looked aggrieved and scared.

Upon seeing this, An Yang’s lackey said: “Please don’t look at Brother Yang like that, okay? It’s disgusting. It’s as if Brother Yang plans to do something to you. Why don’t you take a good look at yourself? Do you think that Brother Yang will be interested in someone like you?”

“Yeah!” Another lackey added: “You don’t even know how to apologize properly. The only thing that you know how to do is cry. And you’re also extremely ugly when you cry. If Brother Yang wasn’t doing this for his Boss, he wouldn’t even want to take another look at you! So why don’t you get lost now? Can’t you see that Brother Yang and Boss Yiling find you annoying?”

When the lackey finished speaking, the circle of people around him couldn’t help but laugh.

Amidst the jeers of the crowd, Zhu Sha ran out of the classroom in a panic.
