Reborn as a True Heiress and Becomes a Boss

Chapter 180 Suicide by jumping into the river
Hu Junzhe covered his face and sighed. He was the most seriously injured during this expedition, and his parents were the worst-tempered of all the parents among them! When he got back, his father whipped him severely with a belt and made him do a test as punishment. He was whipped for every wrong answer, and now his whole body is covered with whip marks left by the belt.

His academic performance can only be considered average to above average; he made a lot of mistakes, including not just one or two questions.

Seeing Hu Junzhe's expression, what did they not understand? Kong Fu smiled and said, "Do you want me to find you a cushion?"

Hu Junzhe gave an awkward laugh. "Okay."

Kong Fu got up to find a mat. She remembered that the infirmary had mats available. After a short while, Kong Fu returned with a mat.

Fan Meini looked at Kong Fu, who didn't appear as haggard as the others, as if she hadn't been punished. "Kong Fu, were you scolded by your parents?"

Kong Fu couldn't help but laugh and cry when she thought about what she had experienced at home these past two days. Her mother didn't say anything, but her father kept nagging her from the moment she woke up in the morning until she went to bed at night. She never knew that her father could say so much. She wasn't beaten or punished, but she suffered a severe blow to her spirit. After a few days, she felt like she had tinnitus in her ears. After Kong Fu told them about these things, everyone sighed.

From this perspective, Fan Meini, who was the culprit but was not punished and even went shopping with her mother, was truly the envy of everyone. People looked at Fan Meini with hostility.

Fan Meini gave an awkward laugh. "Well? Class is about to start, everyone please sit down!"

The group nodded and let her go for the time being.

"I heard that Xu Nuofei's younger sister, Xu Daiqing, came to our school on Friday to borrow the venue to film a variety show. Since we were supposed to be studying on Friday, they chose our class and even had some classmates as temporary guests to play games with them. It's such a pity that we didn't get to participate," Cheng Yunzhen said regretfully.

No wonder they seemed to keep hearing their classmates talking about Friday and celebrities.

Fan Meini curled her lip. "What's there to regret? I just don't like her. She's just a celebrity. My sister-in-law even knows Liang Yuexin!" She's just a usurper. What's there to regret? She didn't care. After her sister-in-law bought a new phone, her friend video-called her, saying she wanted to come see her. Fan Meini realized that it was the big star Liang Yuexin, the female lead in Xu Nuofei's award-winning work "The Truth".

After learning that her sister-in-law was Xu Nuofei's biological sister, she paid special attention to Xu Nuofei, which is why she knew Liang Yuexin.

"Liang Yuexin!" Cheng Yunzhen exclaimed in surprise. Compared to Xu Daiqing, she liked Liang Yuexin much more. "Nini, how does your sister-in-law know Liang Yuexin? I really like her!"

“She’s a friend of my sister-in-law and she’s coming to visit her soon. I asked my sister-in-law to ask her opinion. If she doesn’t mind, I’ll invite you both to come to my house.”

Cheng Yunzhen rushed over and hugged her, "It's settled then! Yay!"

Kong Fu shook her head speechlessly. Thinking of Cheng Yunzhen's expression when she entered the classroom earlier, Kong Fu asked in confusion, "Yunzhen, why were you so flustered just now?"

Reminded by Kong Fu, Cheng Yunzhen remembered what she was about to say. She mysteriously asked everyone to lean closer and said, "Let me tell you, have you heard about the school beauty, Fan Mixue from Class 1 of Senior 3, taking leave?"

The group nodded. They knew this. Although Fan Mixue said she was sick and on leave, rumors circulated among the students that she was promiscuous, a homewrecker, and had an abortion. Despite her poor background, she was often seen getting out of a luxury car. They didn't usually pay attention to these rumors, so why was Cheng Yunzhen bringing it up today?

"I just heard that she's dead! She jumped into the river and committed suicide. It took more than ten days to find her body. Her parents came to help her with the paperwork, and I overheard them talking to the teacher." Cheng Yunzhen sighed and said, "Yuying High School is a famous school in Kyoto. Apart from classes like theirs, which are mostly filled by students from wealthy families, the other classes, such as the elite classes like Class 1 and Class 2, are filled with students who genuinely have excellent grades and were admitted through proper exams. Everyone in those classes has taken a step towards a prestigious university."

The college entrance examination is just around the corner. Fan Mixue is the school beauty and ranks among the top students. If she had prepared well for the exam, her future would have been limitless, but it would definitely have been bright. It is truly regrettable that she has fallen to such a state.

The person I saw at school not long ago is now dead, which makes one sigh at the fragility of life.

"Why would she commit suicide?" Kong Fu asked in confusion.

Cheng Yunzhen said softly, "I heard from her classmates that she was abandoned by someone and, in a moment of despair, jumped into the river and committed suicide."

Fan Meini shook her head and said, "It's a pity. She's so beautiful. If she had entered the entertainment industry, she would definitely have achieved great success. So, you have to be careful and protect yourself."

The others nodded in agreement.

Cheng Yunzhen slammed her fist on the table. "That's why men are all big pigs; you can't trust them."

Zhong Zhiqiang and Hu Junzhe looked both amused and exasperated. "We're still here! Don't condemn us outright!"
"Was it really a suicide attempt due to despair?" Kong Fu asked, touching her chin in confusion.

"what?"

Kong Fu, who had recently been reading a lot of detective novels, couldn't help but have a conspiracy theory when she heard this plot. She held up a finger and said, "Well, firstly, I spent some time with Fan Mixue because the school selected me and Gu Tangtang, who was tied for first place with me in Class 1, to participate in the Olympiad. At that time, she was the team leader. She didn't seem like the kind of person who would commit suicide to me."

“She was sunny, confident, and full of hope for life, how could she commit suicide? Second, wasn’t there a rumor that she was pregnant? Who is the father of the baby? Does he know about her suicide attempt? There’s only one truth, Fan Michelle’s death is definitely not simple!” Kong Fu said solemnly, mimicking a character from an animation.

Cheng Yunzhen chuckled and nudged her head. "You've probably been reading too many detective novels! No matter what the situation is, wouldn't the parents investigate themselves? The police would handle it too. Who are you to pretend to be a detective?"

Kong Fu shrugged and said, "Just tell me whether what I said makes sense or not!"

After a moment of contemplation, the group nodded in agreement. Although they didn't know the specifics, they shared the same thought.

Cheng Yunzhen touched her face, also somewhat puzzled. Although Fan Mixue's parents seemed quite sad, she felt something was off. When Fan Mixue went missing before, she hadn't heard of her parents coming to the school to look for her. What was wrong with them? Their sadness seemed rather superficial and bland, as if they hadn't lost their daughter, but just ordinary cats and dogs.
