Feng Qiao was shocked, he treated Jiang He as his best friend that's why he almost never kept any secrets from him.
Including the fact that he was gay.
However, Jiang He has always told him that he accepts him and will always be his friend regardless of his sexual orientation.
Hearing the word 'fag' and 'disgusting' from Jiang He's mouth left Feng Qiao's mind and heart in disarray.
He couldn't believe it.
He doesn't want to believe it.
His best friend whom he thought that accepts him is now staring at him coldly while saying those hurtful words.
Feng Qiao was speechless as he continued to look at his 'best friend' who is now foreign to him.
Jiang He was still coldly staring at him when suddenly his expression contorted and turned into a complete fear!
"Wha—" before Feng Qiao could say anything, a flash of light from a camera interrupted him.
He looked behind him and saw those people who were bullying him.
In the middle was the leader of them all, Ling Lin.
Ling Lin was holding a camera while taking pictures of Feng Qiao and Jiang He.
"Heh, what a great picture!" Ling Lin laughed as she looked at the pictures she took.
"W-what are you doing here?" Feng Qiao asked, his voice is trembling.
"What do you think?" Ling Lin smirked at Feng Qiao before turning to look at Jiang He, "Nice expression you got here."
"Thanks" Jiang He answered as he freed himself from Feng Qiao's grasped and walked towards Ling Lin.
"Did you capture it nicely?" Jiang He asked.
Ling Lin didn't answer, instead, she passed the camera unto Jiang He.
Jiang He looked at the picture and laughed, "This is great ah! You could become a great photographer Ling Lin."
"Hmph! This is not only because of me, but it was also because you acted really well that this photograph turned out amazing."
Hearing the conversation between the two, Feng Qiao nearly stumbled backward as his legs wobbled.
He was not dumb enough to not still see the truth. Jiang He betrayed him and sided with Ling Lin, the one responsible for the harassment he was receiving.
"Fufufu this was a great picture, don't you think so too, Feng Qiao?" Ling Lin said as she showed the picture to Feng Qiao.
The picture was taken from the back of Feng Qiao.
In the picture you could see Feng Qiao, tightly holding Jiang He against the wall. His face couldn't be seen but the fear-filled face of Jiang He was perfectly captured in the camera!
It totally looked like he was harassing Jiang He!
If he didn't know what really happened he might also believe that picture.
"T-that!" Feng Qiao couldn't speak as his chest tightened even more.
"A great picture isn't it? Perfect for a piece of evidence for let's say, hmmm A fag forcing himself unto his friend?" Ling Lin said as she smirked evilly, fufufu this was really fun.
"That's not true! Jiang He! I would never do that to you! Y-you know the truth!"
"What? Why are you distorting the truths, Feng Qiao? You were the one who befriended me and I accepted you despite all the things other people said about you. However, I didn't expect your heart to be malicious! You are actually a fag who lusted over me. Today, if not for a fact that Ling Lin came in time, I would've been thoroughly tainted by you! That's what really happened right? Hehehehe" Jiang He said as his tone was full of sarcasm.
The people around him was laughed and agreed to his words.
Feng Qiao knew that between him and them, people would surely believe them more than him.
"J-jiang He! Why! Why did you do this to me!" Feng Qiao screamed at Jiang He.
"Why are you doing this to me! I've never done anything to you! Ling Lin! Why do you hate me so much!!"
Feng Qiao felt like he was going crazy, the impact brought to him by Jiang He's betrayal was immense. He could feel his chest hurts and tears continued falling to his face.
"Fufufu why? It's because I find your face irritating in the eye" Ling Lin said nonchalantly.
"Ah! Aaaahhh! Aaaaaaahhhhhh!!!" Feng Qiao screamed as different emotions overwhelmed him.
Is it anger? Resentment? Fear?
No, more than anything else, the one he was feeling was immense pain.
Pain from losing his best friend.
Pain from being so weak.
Pain from being....himself.
From that point on is the start of Feng Qiao hating himself. Hating his face. Hating his whole existence.
