Chapter 446: Crisis Of Trust
"Chi Xiaocheng, she agreed."
These few large characters caught Su Tao's eye, and her eyes suddenly turned red. The veins in her elbow, hidden beneath her sleeve, bulged. The already laggy small phone, with its cracked screen,
"Bang!" made a soft, crisp sound in the classroom.
The sound was just covered by the teacher's voice amplified by a lapel mic.
Even so, it was still noticed by many students who weren't paying attention in class but were stealing glances at Su Tao's stunning profile.
Almost in unison, everyone raised an eyebrow and then gasped.
Several male students even leaned back defensively, their faces filled with horror.
To crush a phone into slag with such ease, what divine power!
Naturally, this also included Jiang Nan, who was right next to Su Tao.
Seeing Su Tao's strength, the girl was stunned.
Her mind was blank, but she was still trying to think.
Regardless of whether the person who asked the question was trustworthy or not, and without even fully understanding the specifics, Taozi, why are you so agitated!
What if that person was spreading false information?
Besides, to crush a phone with one slap, are you sure that's something a normal person can do?
She really wanted to advise Su Tao, but she was afraid of being punched to death by the girl.
While she was still hesitating, Su Tao had already turned around and was staring straight at her. "Jiang Nan, let me borrow your phone."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Nan quickly grabbed her phone from the desk and clutched it to her chest, her eyes wary. "What do you want to do? I just bought this phone last month. I worked part-time for two months to save up for it."
"Borrowing it to you is like you're crushing not the phone, but my heart!"
Seeing Jiang Nan's guarded expression, Su Tao knew she had been too emotional just now. So she took a deep breath and slowly said, "I... I just couldn't control my strength. Don't worry, I just want to borrow your phone to log into WeChat and ask around, I definitely won't do anything to your phone."
Jiang Nan rolled her eyes. "Give me a break, are you even talking like a human being?"
Accidentally couldn't control your strength?
Next time, if you pat my shoulder, would I accidentally become disabled for life?
She hadn't expected Su Tao to be a giant of strength.
Scoring full marks in the physical exam last semester now seemed understandable.
Seeing that Su Tao was indeed much calmer, she first added a safeguard, "Su Tao, don't get too worked up. Class is still in session."
Then she said, "It's useless even if you borrow my phone. If you want to log into WeChat, you'll have to borrow someone else's account to prove your identity. This is an unfamiliar device, so if you want to find out anything, you can only wait obediently until lunchtime."
"But..."
Su Tao glanced at the only clock in the classroom. It was only 2:50 PM, and these two classes wouldn't end until 4:20 PM.
Sitting here for an hour and a half?
What if Dongfang Yang goes to find Xiaocheng again? By the time class is over and I go over there, wouldn't everything be too late!
Jiang Nan hid her phone and, after glancing at the teacher who wasn't paying attention to them, leaned closer to Su Tao and said, "Don't be so pessimistic. Do you think what that person said is definitely true?"
"Or do you subconsciously think Xiaocheng would really betray you, so you're just sitting here anxiously?"
"I... I never doubted Xiaocheng!" Su Tao quickly retorted, but besides this sentence, she didn't know what else to say.
Of course, she believed Xiaocheng wouldn't do such a thing.
But the message Luo Ying sent seemed very credible.
On one hand, Xiaocheng and Dongfang Yang had a very good relationship.
On the other hand, even she herself hadn't noticed that since using the State Glasses, the seed of doubt had been planted in her heart, and that malicious world's will would allow this seed to gradually take root and sprout.
Grain by grain, sand forms a beach; little by little, much accumulates.
Jiang Nan sighed. "Forget it, let me analyze it for you. Assuming you trust Xiaocheng a lot, the chances of her betraying you and then getting together with Dongfang Yang are very low."
"First of all, this is just news from the news department. As long as the news they spread doesn't affect the image of our school, they'll go for whatever generates the most buzz. It's thirty percent truth, seventy percent fabrication, so let's ignore that first."
"Actually, are you very familiar with the person you're chatting with?"
"Uh..." Su Tao replied, "Her name is Luo Ying. She's in the same class as Xiaocheng. I only met her yesterday, but I think she's a trustworthy person, she shouldn't lie to me."
"Alright, since it's your intuition, then we'll assume she's trustworthy." Jiang Nan continued, "Then is there another possibility, that the news she got isn't true either?"
"Did she hear it secondhand, or did Xiaocheng actually tell her? Even if Xiaocheng told her, did she misunderstand what Xiaocheng meant?"
Jiang Nan told Su Tao all the possibilities. "What's more, could it be that Xiaocheng only said she'd help Dongfang Yang solve this problem, and not pretend to be his girlfriend?"
"The ability to distinguish right from wrong is very important."
Jiang Nan spoke very slowly. Although she hadn't been invited by Su Tao three times to actually serve as a strategist, as a writer of romance novels for many years who was still single, her theoretical foundation was completely maxed out.
She also sincerely soothed Su Tao's emotions.
After listening, the girl felt that her anxiety had lessened a lot.
Yes, maybe Luo Ying didn't finish speaking.
Could it be that she had just said that sentence and was still typing the following content, and I didn't even look at it, and in a moment of excitement, I crushed the phone?
Thinking of this, Su Tao quickly looked at Jiang Nan. "Strategist, should I directly ask Xiaocheng? If I ask her directly, she definitely won't hide anything from me!"
If she really hides it from you, wouldn't you be finished?
Jiang Nan said this in her heart, but still gave her own advice, "I think you shouldn't ask Xiaocheng directly. Even if she tells you the truth, have you put yourself in her shoes?"
"If you ask Xiaocheng directly, what will she think?"
Su Tao pursed her lips and thought for a moment, then shook her head.
Jiang Nan said helplessly, "If I were Xiaocheng, I would think that you don't believe in my feelings for you. You're latching onto rumors and gossip to question me. If you like me, why can't you give me a little more trust?"
"This is a very obvious crisis of trust."
Jiang Nan raised a finger and shook it. "And after that, even if this misunderstanding is resolved, and you apologize and are forgiven by Xiaocheng, the seed of this shattered trust will still be buried in her heart."
Such a seed might not seem like anything at ordinary times.
But when a certain event explodes...
Arguments, quarrels, mutual distrust.
At that time, this seed will grow wildly.
