Cold Goddess

"Zhao Zhen?" Bai Qing was shocked.

Or at least, she pretended that she was since it would be her first time hearing it, and it was not really some good news.

"Why would she do that?"

The other woman looked around again, fearing others would accidentally eavesdrop. But they were in an unpopulated corridor, and no one was walking since it was time for class. Bai Qing was excused from the professor directly by Cao Hua with the pretext that she had another task from another professor to be passed to the campus belle.

"... Didn't you give hints to that suitor of yours that he has no right to pursue you because he is taken? That's how it all started. The guy broke up with the girl despite her suicide threats. Who knows if Zhao Zhen will really do it?"

If the one speaking with Bai Qing were another person, she would surely fake concern and act like she couldn't take the blow of a possible death being linked to her.

However, since it was just Cao Hua, she fearlessly showed a calm face.

The first time that this kind of stuff happened to her, she became so shaken that she vomited all day long.

The guilt was very strong since she couldn't help but think if she hadn't hinted that to the boy pursuing her, the tragedy wouldn't happen.

However, the same repeated happenstances wore down the guilt and eventually turned into disdain for those women who kept doing the same thing just because their boyfriends left them.

Why would they do that?

For a single man's affection, they could threaten or even take their own life.

Why don't they love themselves first and enjoy their youth by beautifying and surrounding themselves with men who would worship and bow down at their feet?

She grew to believe that it was not her fault. All she did was become so likable and beautiful that men couldn't stop fawning and loving her.

What did the life of death of women or even men liking those suitors of hers have to do with her?

Conceit and arrogance wear down the guilt and self-remorse until it turns her into the two-faced, cold-hearted woman that she currently is.

Bai Qing listened to the girl's rambling for a while.

When the woman asked her what she would do about the suitor who broke up with Zhao Zhen, she only shrugged her shoulders and said,

"I won't ever see that guy again. That simple. Why would I let his soiled reputation as a heartless bastard sully mine?"

"People knew he's enamored with you. Everyone has a brain; they will connect that woman's death to you and him."

"I'll simply release a statement on social media that I only see him as a friend, but now that I see how he treated his girlfriend, I'll be cutting ties with him."

Her words sounded so heartless to Cao Hua. But the violet-wigged repeated student only smiled and teasingly commented,

"Oh? Cutting ties and, at the same time, throwing rocks at your poor admirer?"

The female lead parted with the woman from the Business Department after another shrug.

Instead of worrying over that stupid man who pushed someone to commit suicide, the problem with that second-gen and her failure of plans were more upsetting and thought-provoking.

Bai Qing visited the hospital where that guy was deposited in order to give him her piece of mind.

Before she got inside the elevator, she ran into a beautiful woman whose posture and air reminded her of the person who shamed her at the dormitories. This person was quite the contrast with her.

While Bai Qing was the sweet goddess type, this one seemed a cold goddess.

The proof was how, unlike Zhu Li, who at least faked decorum with Bai Qing, the woman simply passed by her.

The white lotus girl knew they didn't know each other, so there should be no problem with that, but she somehow felt oppressed, and a strong feeling of dislike towards the woman welled up from within.

Before that their eyes briefly met, while she remained staring for quite a few seconds, the other indifferently looked to her phone.

When she got into the elevator, which started to close, a kind-looking woman in her twenties, who was also in her office attire, noticed her and asked,

"Are you acquainted with Miss Xie?"

Bai Qing flashed a smile while looking puzzled. The other woman thought that the girl had become beyond beautiful due to that gesture.

"Miss Xie?"

"Oh? I thought you knew her. She's an instant celebrity in the business world because aside from recently being competed for by so many companies, she's the current personal secretary of Mr. Jiang Li, COO of the Jiang Corporation, which is becoming a giant business lately."

A few seconds later, when the corporate woman discovered that the others inside the lift were looking at her, she realized that she had just acted improperly, seeming like a common street woman who liked gossiping.

'Damn, me and my stupid tongue. Why did I voluntarily tell this information to a girl I just met?'

When the corporate woman saw Bai Qing's grateful smile, she lost herself again and began talking about the currently known personalities of her field.

Back to the first floor, where Xie Na, the supposed villainess of the world, had stopped by for a few minutes to make a phone call.

Even though people looked at her with interest, she didn't pay them any attention and said softly to the person on the other line,

"... Yeah, I just confirmed it from that man's mouth.... It's actually a scheme against our slightly mentally unstable boss. Tch. I didn't know that a senior of mine is now so popular that women want to throw themselves at him... It's a girl called Bai Qing... And I think I just saw her..."
