Chapter 640: Chapter 640: I, Lu Zhu, Will Never Forgive

After uncovering the truth, Chu Bai used some bizarre inventions from the Supernatural Management Bureau to thoroughly rewrite the memories of the shameless mother and son.

When they recalled the event, they only felt that they had revealed the truth out of sheer embarrassment and did not realize the involvement of the cultivator’s methods.

Yue Qingqing watched with shining eyes, feeling once again the power of science.

"Okay, you can go back to school now."

Chu Bai stretched lazily, and her tight T-shirt lifted, revealing a slim waist that one could grasp with a handful.

The two police officers didn’t dare to glance at her even once.

Although Chu Bai appeared to be a beautiful young girl, anyone who interacted with her for long could feel her ruthlessness and harshness.

Once the truth had come out, the police finally announced their investigation results.

Only then did everyone realize that they had been deceived by despicable villains.

Far from being the cause of the incident, Lu Zhu had actually helped Mrs. Lv at the first opportunity.

Yet, she was falsely accused.

The so-called witnesses were only trying to crush her completely because of disputes they had with Lu Zhu at school.

The media is the most fickle.

Now, the reports that emerged portrayed Lu Zhu as someone who worked hard to save money and who persevered in challenging situations.

"Lu Zhu, sorry, we shouldn’t have spoken about you behind your back."

"It’s my fault, I apologize to you..."

Many students who had previously slandered Lu Zhu either behind her back or to her face apologized to her, and Lu Zhu, showing little emotion, just nodded indifferently.

After the reversal, Zhou Xitong and Ye Chunxiao, who had given false testimony, were called to the police station for questioning.

If they had not been minors, they would have faced severe consequences.

Ye Chunxiao was terrified to death, fell ill as soon as she returned to the dormitory, and dared not show her face.

Zhou Xitong was temporarily taken back home by her family.

The headteacher called Lu Zhu to the office again, full of apologies.

"I didn’t believe you immediately this time, I need to apologize to you."

Lu Zhu shook her head, "You’re not to blame."

Under those circumstances, she wouldn’t have believed herself either.

That the headteacher was able to arrive at the hospital promptly and protect her made Lu Zhu feel that he had done quite well.

"There’s a journalist who would like to interview you, are you willing?"

The headteacher added, "It’s a reporter from a newspaper that the school often collaborates with. They won’t miswrite your story. It’s also meant to give you a platform to speak up."

Lu Zhu thought for a moment, then nodded, "Okay."

During the interview, Lu Zhu, in her characteristic dispassionate voice, narrated the events once again.

The journalist felt sad for her while listening.

"You must have been very upset after being falsely accused."

Lu Zhu placed her hands on her knees, "Not upset, it was despair."

In that instant, Lu Zhu suddenly felt that many things she had stood firm on all along were simply wrong.

Nothing is more despairing than beliefs collapsing in an instant.

The journalist sighed, "What do you think about the two classmates who framed you?"

Lu Zhu’s face was expressionless, "According to usual values, I should say people make mistakes and I would forgive them."

"But the shamelessness of both Mrs. Lv’s family and those two went beyond my imagination. They almost ruined my life. Why would I forgive such people?"

It was so close, just a hair’s breadth away. If Yue Qingqing had not come, she definitely would have found a way to perish together with them.

The lives of those people were vile, disgusting, and nauseating, but why should she have had to die along with them?

The journalist was somewhat embarrassed, as the prevailing values were generally to forgive others, especially expected from students and intellectuals.

He couldn’t help asking, "There’s a saying called repaying evil with good..."

"That’s just people taking things out of context. The original words of Confucius were ’Repay kindness with kindness, and injury with justice.’"

Lu Zhu looked at the journalist, a certain decisiveness in her gaze.

"I, Lu Zhu, will never forgive."

The article revealing the true protagonist immediately sparked heated discussions in society upon its release.
