Jordan and Laura left the classroom side by side. Vivien said helplessly.

"What? Are we really going shopping today?"

I put my arm around Vivien's neck and said, "Hey, we've put on makeup today, so why not go shopping? I'll treat you to lunch! Didn't you say you ran out of facial masks last time? Let's go buy some new!"

Vivien shrugged. "Let's go. Jordan doesn't look like a good person. If he knew we lied to him, he would retaliate!"

I was pleased with Vivien's awareness, and the two of us took a taxi directly to the pedestrian street.

I walked out of the fitting room and angrily put the pair of jeans I had just tried on back on the hanger.

"Damn, I can't wear it. Clothes are getting smaller and smaller nowadays!"

I looked at Vivien. She was watching a short video with a serious expression. When she saw me coming over, she turned the screen to face me.

"Look, it's located in our university. Was it sent by Laura?"

I picked up her phone and saw that the video she was playing had already reached over a million views, with over two hundred thousand likes and over one hundred thousand comments.

The video content was a girl playing basketball from behind, and the video was tagged: [Girls can be handsome, too.]

The text was even funnier: [Today, I took a class with my good friend who plays basketball, and his girlfriend wouldn’t let me sit next to him, so I was punished to stand for the whole class. It was so unfair.]

The comments were all cursing the boy’s girlfriend, and some were comforting her.

[Girl will feel wronged. Why did she be bullied like this? ]

[Can that woman just go to hell? The seats in the classroom belong to everyone. Why can't the girl be allowed to sit?]

Of course there were a few exceptions.

[Am I the only one who thinks the owner of this video is cheap? The girl just wants her boyfriend to keep his distance from other girls...]

However, the comment was quickly drowned out by more abusive comments.

At first, I thought this was not Laura until I clicked on her homepage, scrolled to the bottom, and saw the two retouched selfies. I could vaguely recognize her.

In the comment section of that rarely viewed video, I saw a familiar account, which was Jordan.

He commented with an emoji.

It was so funny. I didn’t find these in my previous life. I really found something new.

"It seems that it is really her. Laura distorted the facts too much." Vivien curled her lips.

I took out my phone, found the video, and commented.

[Hi, everyone. I am the girlfriend of the boy mentioned by the video subject. We had class together this morning and I kindly and clearly stated that she could sit next to my boyfriend, not like what she said in the copy.]

Since others had slandered me, of course I had to clarify myself.

After commenting, I calmly continued shopping with Vivien, completely forgetting about it.

At noon, I took Vivien to a newly opened barbecue restaurant, and after the meal, we bought some skin care products together.

It was almost sunset in the afternoon when we returned to university carrying our bags. Everything seemed normal.

But when I returned to the dormitory, I felt the hostile looks from my roommates.

I was a little confused and thought it was my illusion. I smiled and shared the extra drinks with them, but no one paid any attention to me.

I looked at them in confusion. After several minutes, the dormitory head couldn't help but speak.

"Simona, everyone treats you as a friend, but I didn't expect you to be such a person!"

I was even more at a loss and had no idea what she was talking about.

After being stunned for ten seconds, I suddenly thought of something, and quickly took out my mobile phone and found Laura's video.

It was shocking.

The popularity of the video had reached an unprecedented high.

There were many unfriendly comments from netizens under my comment.

[Are you okay? If you hadn't stopped the girl from sitting down, would she have been punished to stand? ]

[It's obvious that this woman is a habitual offender. She doesn't even think before she lies.]

[Your selfies on your homepage are so pretty. How can you be so mean? ]

I wanted to clarify, but I couldn't refute it.

Just because of the popularity that Laura brought me, my account gained more than ten thousand followers, all of whom were there to curse me in private messages.

Suddenly, I was subjected to so much hostility from netizens, and my head was a little buzzing.

However, since I had evidence, as long as I am reasonable, I believed that netizens would not be aggressive.

Just as I was about to write the clarification copy, the phone rang unexpectedly.

Almost everyone in the dormitory turned their heads towards me as if they were watching a fun event. I looked at them and then immediately looked away.

The person who called me was Jordan, who just said he wanted to treat me to a midnight snack and asked me to go downstairs quickly.

I guessed he must have seen the video of Laura, and he invited me downstairs for a midnight snack, probably to comfort me for being bullied.

But I actually overestimated his character.

As soon as we went downstairs, Jordan stuffed an exquisitely packaged jewelry box into my hands.

Although the bracelet in the box looked inferior and ugly, I still thanked him gently.

"As long as you like it." Jordan smiled dotingly.

I couldn't help but feel nauseous, wondering why I didn't realize he was so greasy in my previous life.

On the way to the barbecue restaurant, Jordan kept talking about how well he played basketball in the afternoon and how so and so everyone didn't play as well as him.

I pretended to admire him and agreed with him, but actually, I was absent-minded. This man didn't even mention the video posted by Laura?

I was a little confused about why he took me out for a midnight snack.

When we arrived at the barbecue restaurant, we found that his friends were already waiting for us. When they saw me, they all said in unison.

"Hello, Simona!"

I was so embarrassed that I almost sprained my ankle.

Thinking about it carefully, this should be the first time that Jordan had taken me to meet his friends in this life. As expected, this step could never be skipped.

"Let me introduce you guys. This is my girlfriend. Isn't she pretty?"

I heard his familiar tone and familiar words again.

I was sure that Jordan knew that I was cyber-bullied by tens of thousands of netizens because of that video, but he didn't care about it at all.

Instead, he still treated me as a tool for his friends to admire.

The sentiment of the tool was not important.

What really chilled me was that he had no empathy at all.

Although I was a reborn person and should be more emotionally stable, at this moment, I really felt a little bit depressed again.

But I knew that I must play my part well first and try to be a sensible girlfriend so that even if we break up in the future, he wouldn't slander or retaliate against me.

Jordan's friends and I were chatting and laughing, and the pride on Jordan's face became more and more intense.

After finishing the midnight snack, Jordan's friend named Sam Holmes spoke unconsciously.

"I saw the video Laura posted. Simona has been scolded. Jordan, don't you care about it?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone fell silent, as if silently accusing Sam said.

But this was an excellent opportunity for me. I took the chance to complain.

"Yeah, many people even sent me private messages scolding me. I was upset."

As I said this, I covered my face.

Jordan took a big gulp of beer and showed a polite smile again.

"Don't worry about it. Let's eat. I don't understand the relationships between girls. They will be fine in these days."

He asked his friends to continue eating and drinking and even brought the menu to order more dishes.

And my complaints were just ignored.

Actually, this was all because of him. It was he who insisted on not letting Laura sit in that position, but I was the one who got blamed.

I looked at Sam. His expression was puzzled. He seemed innocent among this group of cunning men.

Jordan was called out of the dinner party by a message, and before leaving, he asked me to treat his friends well.

In all likelihood, it was Laura who called him away.

In order to avoid an awkward silence, his friends talked about me. He pointed at the jewelry box I had placed on the table and said, "Simona, this is what Jordan carefully picked for you. We have all seen it. Why don't you wear the bracelet?"

Several male classmates shouted in unison, "Yes, Simona, try it!"

But when I opened the jewelry box and revealed the cheap bracelet that had nothing to do with the box, everyone's faces changed.

Everyone fell silent again.

It was Sam who spoke again. He scratched his head and said in confusion.

"Jordan showed it to us before, and that bracelet is not this one at all. It's made of silver, and very beautiful. This one is so ugly..."

I covered my mouth in surprise, then shook my head firmly. "No! I believe Jordan would not lie to me! You must remember it wrong."

They all looked at me with sympathy.

The dinner ended quickly, and when I was leaving, the boss stopped me and said that Jordan had not paid the bill yet.

I looked to his good friends for help, but one of them said.

"Jordan said he would treat us all, so..."

I smiled and nodded. "I understand. It's okay. I'll pay for it."

I almost gritted my teeth when I said this. I could accept Jordan cheating on me, but I couldn't stand him using my money.

This was painful.

But I immediately thought of a more vicious trick. I would call to borrow money.

I choked up on the phone. "Marco, can you lend me five hundred dollars? I'll pay you back as soon as I make some money from my part-time job."

Marco Price, on the other end of the phone, spoke calmly and patiently asked me what was wrong.

I told him everything.

"Is that so..." He said calmly.

At the same time, the notification sound of the five hundred transfer message rang out.

On the phone, Marco seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"Marco, what do you want to say?" I asked.

"I also saw the video posted by Laura. It's a big deal. I sat in front of you in class today, so I know that Laura's punishment has nothing to do with you, but those people on the Internet..."

"I'm innocent. I think there will always be a solution!"

"You and Simona have been roommates for a semester. Why don't you trust her and instead believe that video of Laura?"

When I returned to the dormitory, I happened to see Vivien, who came to the dormitory to find me. She was arguing with my roommate.

I walked up to her and held her hand. "Okay, don't waste your time talking to them. I have something to tell you."

"Don't you think about how good Simona was to you before?"

Vivien was still talking when I quickly pulled her out of the dormitory.

I took her to the corner at the end of the corridor and told her everything that happened during the midnight snack.

Vivien was even angrier than me, the person involved, and punched the wall hard.

"Jordan is such a jerk! All these are because of him!"

After venting her anger, she couldn't stop laughing. Her expression changed in an instant.

"Simona, you are so mean. You deliberately let Marco know about this."

I smiled, "Of course. Now, I need to think carefully about how to clarify everything."

Vivien and I discussed it for a long time. After returning to the dormitory, I wrote a clarification letter on my bed, including everything that had happened since Laura kicked me out of the group chat.

I finally finished writing it at midnight. I had insomnia the day before and was exhausted from shopping during the day. I fell asleep right after posting the clarification video.

I had no classes the next day, so I slept in. I woke up and turned on my phone to find that clarification video had over one hundred thousand views.

The comments section was divided into two camps. It was clear that there were still quite a few people who didn't believe me.

[Really? There is actually a reversal?!]

[I have never criticized the young lady, which beats 99% of netizens.]

[She said these. Is there any evidence? Why should we believe her without evidence?]

It was easy to show evidence. My phone camera was full of evidence. But at the moment I was hungry and just wanted to ask Vivien to go to the canteen for dinner.

After a quick wash, I went to the cafeteria with Vivien from the next dormitory with a bare face.

I didn’t know if it was an illusion. I felt my classmates were talking about me all the way.

"Simona, the person you least want to see is here." Vivien pulled my sleeve.

I looked in the direction she pointed and saw that Laura and Jordan were sitting face to face eating.

The two seemed to have some dispute. Jordan threw his fork angrily, and Laura rubbed her eyes in grievance.

"What happened?" Vivien enjoyed watching the fun.

"They just had a quarrel. Let it go." I was mean.

Not wanting to get involved in their business, I pulled Vivien and found a seat far away from them to eat.

A bright light flashed before my eyes, and an unremarkable girl took a picture of me with her cell phone.

"Oh, you must be the heroine in Laura's video. Look how different you are from the photo you posted. It's amazing!"

After saying that, she walked away.

I finished my food with a confused look on my face, having no idea what was going on with that person.

After a long time, Vivien was the first to react. "That person is crazy. Why don't you scold her?"

"I didn't expect that..." I muttered.

"Well, your face without makeup is going to be exposed." Vivien held her forehead.

"It's okay. I don't care!" I patted my chest.

"I care. She just took a picture of you and included me in it!"

Vivien rolled her eyes.

Well...

After eating, we both took out our phones to watch videos, and unexpectedly, we saw that the video of Laura being punished by standing was popular again, which was posted by someone unknown.

Judging from the video angle, the person shooting the video seemed to be the girl sitting in the front.

"Who is this? What's wrong with him?"

Vivien angrily clicked on that person’s homepage, and the latest video turned out to be a photo of me without makeup!

I was showered with abuse.

[This woman clarified, but she didn't produce any evidence. She also said that her boyfriend had sent Laura to the hotel and they had stayed together for the whole night!]

[That's right. As a girl, it's awful to make up dirty rumors about other girls!]

[She looks really pretty in the photos she posted. I didn’t expect her face to be so ordinary. She should open a class to teach how to put on makeup! ]

[Do you dare to learn what she teaches? She is such a person...]

[The video of the punishment was released. This woman should also produce some evidence!]

"What should I do?" Vivien was even more anxious than me and was flipping through the comments a little frantically.

I was not panicked. After all, I was the one who kept evidence. Laura and the others would be surprised that I kept evidence.

At this time, my private messages were met with overwhelming insults. And there were even sexual harassment messages from boys from the university.

I sneered, thinking that I had to break into this internet circle.
