Rebirth of the Pampered Wife's Daily Life CH7

Chapter 7: The Truth

The entire class watched this drama's reversal in shock, everyone was mostly shocked at witnessing the process of someone getting framed and slandered in real life as they had all previously thought this was something only evident in palace fighting dramas. 

Everyone's eyes were mostly looking at Xia Teng and Xu Lang, no matter the perspective you're looking at you can't place these two people together, but why did Xu Lang give Xia Teng living expenses?

Were these two people relatives?

Tian Tian pierced herself to death without knowing anything, and was only looking out for her friend.

At this time, a girl suddenly spoke out, "Are the books you're talking about the complete set of 《SanNian Moni WuNian Gaokao》[1]?

When Xu Lang looked over, the girl had returned to her desk, "When I came yesterday, I saw Tian Tian throwing away books, and I just happen to not have tutorial books, and felt that it would be such a waste to throw out these new books, so I picked it back up from the garbage bin......"

How would Tian Tian ever have thought that just by throwing out some books, she got seen by someone, and the most troublesome part was, that the person even picked it back up.

"Sorry, I didn't know it was yours." The girl with bangs carried over the books, giving them to Xia Teng.

The books were bought by Xu Lang, but Xia Teng felt in her heart that the girl was a really good person, she didn't need to say out these things, after all no one would have known, and, she picked it up from the garbage bin, even if someone knew, they couldn't force her to give it back.

Xia Teng received it, if these books were bought by herself, she would have already given them to that girl, but it was bought by Xu Lang, she was reluctant to do so.

Xia Teng thought, was this set expensive, she wanted to buy a set for the girl.

Even though, there was what Li Li said, everyone had started to believe that Xia Teng was innocent, but with this girl coming out, everyone's eyes all looked at Tian Tian questioningly.

No one would have labeled her as a thief.

And on the side Tian Tian broke down crying, there was orignally no one speaking in the class, the guys who were only there to see what was happening saw their goddess crying, and stood up, "Tian Tian was only joking around, why is this being taken so seriously."

"Xu Lang, you are also a man, why are you bullying a girl?"

"In addition, the canteen aunt can only have herself to be blamed for always carrying a poor peasant-like whiff, or else who would have misunderstood her."

Xu Lang turned his head, looking at the several boys, then looked at Tian Tian who was crying pitifully, saying casually, "It seems, that the facts placed out were still not enough to penetrate people's hearts. Everyone still has a certain misconception about this matter. How about this, let's call the police after all, as this is an infringement of other's reputation, a crime of defamation."

Saying this Xu Lang took out his phone, about to dial the number calling the police, no one at the scene thought he was joking.

Tian Tian who was originally crying, instantly turned stupid, rushing over, grabbing at Xu Lang's phone, "No need to call the police, no need to call the police, I was wrong, I shouldn't have wrongly accused Xia Teng."

"The one who you need to inform the truth to isn't me, the one you need to apologize to also isn't me." Xu Lang coldly said.

It was obvious, that Xu Lang was doing this to shut the mouths of this group of people.

Tian Tian looked at the guy in front who she had secretly loved for so long, being so cold and ruthless......

Feeling as if her heart was a knife[2], telling her to apologize to Xia Teng, telling her to admit her wrongs to the whole class, it was scarier then death to her.

But, if the police are called, the whole school will know about this matter, her parents would also get called to the police station......

Tian Tian gnashed her teeth together, turning around, looked at Xia Teng, "Sorry."

Xia Teng felt awkward and rubbed her nose, "Yes, I heard......"

Xu Lang was amused by how Xia Teng replied, it wasn't the usual peaceful "It's fine." nor was it "I forgive you."

But "Yes, I heard."

Tian Tian was furious, "What's with your attitude?"

Xia Teng was blank, completely not understanding why Tian Tian was suddenly furious, "What happen?"

Tian Tian gritted her teeth, and told herself, it's nothing it's nothing, this will all past soon.

Then heard Xu Lang saying, "The guys at first were too far back, seemingly unable to hear the truth."

Tian Tian looked at Xu Lang's latest phone model, and could only gnash her teeth, and said towards the boys, "I was wrong......I shouldn't have framed Xia Teng......"

All the boys in the class wanted to vomit out blood but couldn't, they all wanted to be a hero saving the beauty, but who would have known that Xu Lang for a girl that's basically invisible would make things difficult for the class flower.

In the end Xia Teng held her books back to her seat, still in a trance.

After Xu Lang sat beside her, Xia Teng turned her head, seriously saying, "My goal is Tsinghua University[3], all the money I earn this lifetime will be yours. In the future you only need to leave me a meal."

Xu Lang didn't have much contact with Xia Teng in his previous life, but he had heard that towards money Xia Teng, was incredibly stingy to the point that it made people boil with angry.

But, now why is she actively seeking to be exploited like Yang Bailao [4]?

"The way you think, will make your future boss really happy." Xu Lang said.

Xia Teng was still really serious, "I am being for real, if it wasn't for you, right now I would definitely be forced to wash clothes, cook, give birth, raise kids, go out to work......completely losing myself......"

When Xu Lang heard Xia Teng saying these words, he felt really uncomfortable in his heart, he couldn't imagine that version of Xia Teng, without a soul, just a numb body......marrying someone and giving birth to their child......living the poorest numbed out life......

"You won't." Xu Lang interrupted Xia Teng, "You aren't that type of person."

"All the girls in the village that are my age have married, and two of them already have kids." Xia Teng said, she's able to adjust really quick, not feeling that these things were shameful. In addition, even more shameful and embarrassing situations she's been in, Xu Lang has already seen them.

"But you won't." Xu Lang stared fixedly at her, eyes firm, "No matter if I was there, you would always be you."

Xu Lang's eyes looked very deep, Xia Teng felt that her heartbeats weren't normal, thumping, so loudly that she could hear it......

"I......I......" Xia Teng was red from her face to her ears, for a second losing her senses, "In any case I will earn a lot of money in the future, to repay you......"

Xu Lang didn't notice Xia Teng being unusual, "Anyways you will earn a lot of money for me in the future, you can just think of the money spent now as my investment."

Xu Lang handed back Xia Teng's and a bit of his money to her.

When Xu Lang was speaking, the corner of his mouth was curved up smiling, Xia Teng was in a daze taking the money......
