Chapter 51: People change their face easily
It was early in the morning when Feng Qiao came to the CBY University.
This was the first time he went to university after that incident. He would be lying if he said that he's not nervous about it, though Zhao Lin already reassured him that it was already fine, he still couldn't help but feel anxious. He didn't know how would other people react to him and how would he react to them.
Feng Qiao stood outside the university for who knows how long, trying to calm himself down.
Inhale. Exhale.
It's alright, Feng Qiao. Remember what Zhao Lin said? It's all going to be fine! You can do this!
After finishing consoling himself, he took a deep breath and gathered his courage to walk inside the University.
While Feng Qiao was in deep thought, he didn't realize that he was already in front of his classroom. With his heart beating fast, Feng Qiao stride inside the room towards his seat without looking at anyone. He didn't dare to try to look at his classmate's eyes but he could feel their stares on him.
As much as possible, Feng Qiao actually wanted for them to just ignore him and forget all about it, however, things just don't go the way you wanted it to be.
As soon as he sat on his chair, his classmates approached him and tried to talk to him. He was instantly overwhelmed by their voices.
"Feng Qiao! It's good that you're back!"
"Yeah, you didn't come back for days, so we're worried."
"Uh, we're sorry for what happened before, but it's all in the past now!"
His classmates enthusiastically approached him like nothing has happened, which left a bad taste in Feng Qiao's mouth.
"Yeah, it's so sad about what happened to you."
Lies.
"It was because of that Jiang Xie, tsk tsk tsk, what a bitch. I knew it that those rumors were false"
Lies.
"Couldn't believe that she's done all of that and she even tried to harm you. Who does she think she is?"
Lies.
"Hey that's all in the past now, let's not mention it anymore. What's important is Feng Qiao is back"
Lies.
"Yeah, we're all friends here. Let the bygones be bygones."
Lies. Lies. Lies. Lies!!
A voice kept ringing on his head telling him that it's all a lie. He could still remember clearly their mocking gaze and hurtful words from before, a total contrast of what they are showing right now.
How could they smile at me as nothing has happened?
Feng Qiao felt his stomach twisting, urging him to vomit. Instantly, Feng Qiao's face paled, he couldn't make out what the other people were saying anymore, all he could think about is how he would get out here quickly.
Feng Qiao stood up and hurriedly grabbed his things before storming out of the room, leaving others dumbfounded.
He went straight to the comfort room and tried to throw up at the sink. He wanted to take out the nasty feeling from his stomach but no matter how much he wanted to throw up, all he could get out is water.
Feng Qiao washed his face with cold water and looked up to see his reflection in the mirror.
".. I look terrible."
Pale face and dark circles under his eyes. Feng Qiao really looked terrible. He looks like a mess, even his thoughts are a mess.
Feng Qiao didn't know why he reacted like that earlier. It's just that seeing those very same people who mocked him when he's down acting like nothing happened in front of him gives him a very disgusting feeling.
They even called him a 'friend'.
Is a friend who would abandon you in your miserable times?
Feng Qiao sighed, he should've known it better than anyone.
People change their face easily.
They would always be with you during your good times but they'll leave you in your bad times. Very few people would stay when you are in a miserable state, and those are your true friends.
"True friends...." Faces of Zhao Lin, Xiao Yu, Wang Shu, Shao Wei and those people front the fashion department flashes on Feng Qiao's mind.
Yeah, how could he forget that?
He has them. He has his own 'friends'.
Those kinds of friends that won't leave him no matter what.
Why would he still be bothered by those people who were not true to him? He doesn't need many friends.
All he need was a few friends who will never leave him.
For him, that was enough.
