Chapter 1: Slandered

2241 Words
After Being Slandered as a "Scholar b***h" by My Advisor's Wife, I Was Ambushed in My Dorm by a Group of Self-Righteous Bullies "Aren't you just a w***e? You're an embarrassment to our school!" "Not focusing on your studies and trying to sleep your way to the top? Dream on." They cursed and hit me, trashing the dorm. I called my father's secretary: "Tell my dad to transfer the husbands of everyone here today, whether they're professors or associate professors, to gate duty." "And call the police and get a lawyer. They smashed my antiques, luxury goods, and haute couture worth hundreds of millions. I want them to pay until they're bankrupt." ***** I had just returned to the dorm when I heard my roommates discussing something. "It can't be her, can it?" "What if I get infected with some kind of disease?" Their voices were hushed. Curious, I walked over. "What are you talking about?" Mary gave me a rough outline of the situation. It turned out that there was a girl in our school who, instead of taking the right path, chose to be a "Scholar b***h" and was being kept by an older man from the university. The video was posted on the university's confession wall, with the man's wife commenting below, threatening to come and catch the "w***e" today. "Ali, what do you think about this?" I shook my head and returned to my seat: "Let's wait and see. Maybe it's all a misunderstanding." The dorm fell silent again, and it was at this moment that we all heard the commotion downstairs. Mary went to the balcony and her face turned pale with fright. "That girl who's being kept lives in our building!" "No way, is she really here to catch her?" I followed her gaze and saw a luxuriously dressed woman leading the group. Her face seemed familiar, so I took a closer look. "Isn't that Luna, the professor's wife? Why is she here?" Luna, the professor's wife, always had a quiet and introverted demeanor. When I greeted her, she would only nod in response. She was on a rampage now, and no matter how the security guards tried to stop her, she barged into the dorm with a group of people. Jennie, the campus beauty who shared a dorm room with me, nonchalantly applied nail polish. "That girl is having an affair with our advisor and has benefited a lot from it!" At the same time, a flurry of footsteps approached from outside the door. Luna's voice was particularly loud. "This academic w***e! I treated her like my own daughter!" "A teacher for a day, a father for life! This is i****t!" The footsteps grew closer, and I was secretly surprised. Could the person involved be living on the same floor as me? I wanted to open the door to see what was going on, but I bumped into Luna. Jennie stood up abruptly. As I was still in a daze, Luna suddenly pushed me to the ground. Behind her, there were several strong men who seemed to be her relatives or friends. Not far away, a few onlookers poked their heads in and occasionally raised their phones to take pictures. Luna pointed at me and yelled, "At such a young age, instead of studying hard, you're learning to be a w***e? Is being a w***e that great?" I heard gasps of astonishment from the people around me. "So it's her! She's studying her way right into a man's bed!" "If her parents knew, they'd be so ashamed they wouldn't dare to leave the house!" Someone behind me was holding up a phone and recording my face. Luna was still yelling, "Everyone, take a look! This woman is Ali. It's her! She seduced her own teacher!" Jennie, who had always been at odds with me, unexpectedly stepped forward and helped me up. "Ali, you didn't do it for the National Scholarship, did you...?" She only said half of it, but everyone present understood. Luna was enraged and slapped me hard across the face. "I'm going to tell the administration to revoke your scholarship!" The next second, a glob of phlegm landed on my face. "Bah! You're good at coaxing men at such a young age. You must be rotten down there!" I wiped my face with my sleeve, the disgusting smell making me gag. Luna's face was pale, her chest heaving. I regained my composure and tried to explain. "Luna, is there some kind of mistake?" "How could there be a mistake? See for yourself, isn't that you in the video?" The man who had just spat on me held up his phone and played a short video. In the video, a girl in a floral dress was kneeling between the legs of a man. It was obvious what was going on. I pointed to the date in the bottom left corner. "That's not me! I was out working that day, the 16th. Besides, I don't even own a floral dress like that!" Luna raised her hand, about to slap me again. "Still lying! Search her!" What right did they have to go through my things? This was all based on unfounded rumors, so why was I being suspected? I grabbed Luna's hand, my voice cold. "I call you Luna out of respect, but you attacked me without any evidence. I can call the police!" The people behind her immediately stepped forward and shoved me hard. "A w***e like you dares to lay a hand on someone?" They were blinded by rage. Jennie had already started rummaging through my closet with our roommates. In the blink of an eye, Jennie was holding a dress in her hand, identical to the one in the video. The crowd erupted. "We have both the person and the evidence. What else does she have to say?" "This is clearly a case of seeking benefits! She should be arrested!" "I remember Kenney's family is quite wealthy. This girl must have gotten a lot of money from him!" Even the security guards stopped pretending to hold the crowd back and openly joined the gossip. "How much does a college student like her get paid for a night?" "Judging by her ordinary clothes, she probably sleeps with anyone for money!" Their lewd laughter sent shivers down my spine. Luna took the floral dress and stepped aside. "Smash all her things!" My roommates huddled in a corner, their manicured fingers tapping away on their phones. They looked at me with disdain. With a crash, my serum bottle shattered on the floor. Luna gave it a hard kick, and the serum spilled everywhere. My voice turned cold. "Luna, stop it! I'm calling the police!" "Even if the police come, you're the w***e who's going to be arrested!" Someone zoomed in with their phone camera and saw the logo on the bottle. "La... Prairie Cellular Radiance Concentrate Pure Gold?" "La Prairie? The one that costs over ten thousand?" Someone immediately searched for the price on their phone. Luna froze. She came from a well-off family but had never heard of a serum that cost over ten thousand. A flicker of jealousy crossed Jennie's face. "Where did she get the money for this?" "Probably from seducing her teacher and making him buy it for her!" Luna immediately put her hands on her hips and pointed at me, yelling. "So that's it! I knew so much money was missing from home. You stole it!" Those people immediately continued to rummage through my things. One after another, Tiffany jewelry, Gucci bags, a Vacheron Constantin watch... all were exposed to the public eye. Luna's eyes were greedy, and she couldn't help but pick them up and admire them. But the thought that these things were bought with her husband's money brought a trace of heartache to her eyes. "These things are rightfully mine now!" I laughed in anger. "I bought all of this myself. How can you say it's yours?" "You tricked my husband into spending money on you. How can you say it's not mine?" Jennie chimed in, "Ali, Luna is doing this for your own good. This is considered p**********n earnings. If the police come, at least you won't be arrested." She was adding fuel to the fire! I had a guess in my mind. Today's drama was probably orchestrated by Jennie! It was a pity that Luna was being used as a pawn and was still so clueless! I picked up my phone, ready to call the police. Jennie, probably feeling guilty, snatched my phone away. "Just return these things to Luna, give up your National Scholarship, and apologize. Then everything will be fine." "Ali, why push yourself to the edge?" What a shameless woman! Regardless of who was in the video, as long as I gave up my National Scholarship, Jennie would immediately take my place. I tried to grab my phone back, but during the struggle, it slipped out of my hand and fell to the ground. "She still wants to call the police? Does she think the police can't do anything to her just because she doesn't have any purchase records?" Mary whispered, "If it was really her, why would she want to call the police?" The crowd immediately came up with an explanation for me. "She's just not reconciled to having her things taken away!" "Yeah, she wants to drag everyone down with her!" I sneered. How imaginative! While no one was looking, Jennie took out the evening gown I had kept in the closet. "Still want to dress up and receive your award? Dream on!" Luna pulled out a large pair of scissors from somewhere. "There's not even a brand tag. I bet it's from a cheap stall!" I warned her, "This is custom-made haute couture. If you can afford to compensate me, then go ahead and cut it." "Haute couture? No matter how beautiful the dress is, you'll still take it off for men to see at night!" I watched as Luna cut my gown to shreds, but I didn't stop her. Perhaps because it wasn't her size, she didn't feel any heartache at all. On the other hand, Jennie had a look of regret on her face. In about ten minutes, the dorm was in complete disarray. I had purchase records for everything, and besides, someone was posting live updates on the confession wall. I wasn't worried about lacking evidence! This wasn't over. While they were busy smashing my things, I secretly sent a message to my father's secretary: "Tell my dad to transfer the husbands of everyone here today, whether they're professors or associate professors, to gate duty." "And call the police and get a lawyer. They smashed my antiques, luxury goods, and haute couture worth hundreds of millions. I want them to pay until they're bankrupt." I thought they would stop there, but to my surprise, the men suddenly rushed at me. "You love showing yourself off to men, right? Let's strip her naked!" No one expected the usually gentle Luna to do such a thing. Consumed by madness, she ordered the men to pin me down, and with her phone in hand, she was about to rip my clothes off herself. Jennie pretended to pull them back, but in reality, she took the opportunity to pull open the zipper of my shirt. "Stop it! What are you doing!" Terror surged through me, but my cries were drowned out by the excited shouts of the crowd. "The hypocrisy of a w***e, hahahaha..." In the midst of the chaos, Jennie leaned close to my ear, her voice filled with glee. "Ali, you have so much money. Why not just be your rich little missy? Why compete with me?" What a vicious woman! Before I appeared, Jennie had always been the most talked-about beauty in school. She had cultivated an image of being rich, beautiful, and gentle, leading many boys to willingly do her bidding. Until I arrived and completely exposed her hypocrisy. Her counterfeit clothes paled in comparison to mine. And so, she held a grudge against me. She had also tried to compete with me for the National Scholarship, using her connections, but I still surpassed her. How could she accept that? She wanted to destroy me completely! Mary was truly scared and tried to pull Luna back, reasoning with her. "Please calm down! Even if she's in the wrong, doesn't the advisor share the blame?" Luna glared at her. "If she hadn't seduced him, would my husband have fallen for it?" "That's nonsense! I didn't seduce anyone!" Tears streamed down my face. Who knew that something straight out of a novel would happen to me? Mary didn't give up. "If this gets out of hand, you'll be arrested for assault and vandalism!" Only then did Luna stop. "Consider yourself lucky that you're still a student. I'll let you off the hook for today!" The crowd buzzed with discussion. "That was going too far!" "If she hadn't misbehaved, would Luna be so angry?" "To be honest, she has a great figure. She's got the capital." Just as Luna and her group were about to leave, the police arrived. "Who called the police and reported a disturbance? What's going on here?" I struggled to break free and shouted, "It was me! They barged in here for no reason, slandered me, attacked me, and destroyed my belongings! Arrest them!"
