Jiang Yifan had already told the homeroom teacher the whole story. He hesitated for a moment yesterday and didn't report it, but today he told her everything in detail.

Ming Xiaoxiao went to mediate the fight, which was perfectly fine. In fact, the head of the teaching department even gave her a half-criticism and a half-praise, saying, "In the future, if you encounter something like this, just ask the teacher for help. Don't try to be strong on your own."

Pei Si and his group went to rescue people. Although they were suspected, the head of the teaching department listened to the scene for a while and knew that it had nothing to do with the four of them, so he dismissed them with disdain.

As for Xie Li, the other party involved in the incident, since she did not appear at the scene, and Ming Xiaoxiao testified that Xie Li had listened to her advice and gone home, she was ultimately unharmed.

The real issue lies with Zhang Siyuan and Shen Lian's group; the fact that these girls provoked trouble and intended to fight cannot be denied.

Fortunately, no serious consequences resulted, so they were punished by the head of the teaching department by being made to stand on the spot and submit a self-criticism.

Several girls stood in a row feeding mosquitoes, enduring the strange looks from their classmates. As darkness fell, their mental state completely collapsed.

Chen Lian slapped the mosquito on her calf with a loud "smack," but no matter how hard she tried, it was no use; the mosquito still flew away.

"Damn it!" She grew angrier the more she thought about it. "That bitch Xie Li, she actually resorted to underhanded tactics?"

No matter how you look at it, this is Xie Li's conspiracy. He didn't lift a finger, but took advantage of Ming Xiaoxiao's enthusiasm and Jiang Yifan's sense of responsibility to completely manipulate them.

This caused them to have a slight grudge against Pei Si and his group.

There's no way to explain this to Sister Qian either.

Shen Lian could no longer swallow this insult. "This isn't over! I'll settle this score with Xie Li, or I'm not a Shen!"

She was absolutely furious. They had originally been in control and wanted to teach Xie Li, the cheater, a lesson, but instead, they ended up getting themselves into trouble while Xie Li was completely unharmed.

Originally, I was just standing up for a friend, but now we've made enemies, and there's no way things can be resolved amicably.

Zhang Siyuan remained silent; unlike Chen Lian, whose temper was like a bomb that could explode at the slightest provocation.

“That Ming Xiaoxiao…” She frowned and kicked a pebble under her feet.

"She's just an idiot. People use her as a weapon, but she's so stubborn and thinks she's so glorious." Chen Lian sneered.

If it weren't for Pei Si protecting her, Ming Xiaoxiao would have been killed sooner or later, given her personality.

Zhang Siyuan thought for a moment, but ultimately remained silent.

Pei Si was also annoyed. He always thought girls were troublesome and never wanted to meddle in other people's business.

The reason why the school bully is the school bully is not only because he has an outstanding appearance and an impressive family background, but also because he is always cold and ruthless and never shows any interest in any girl.

But he had no way to deal with the stubborn girl in front of him, who was as stubborn as a deer.

"Stay away from Xie Li from now on."

Ming Xiaoxiao immediately retorted, "But she's my friend..."

"Friends? Friends who use you as pawns?" Pei Si sneered. "Then your definition of friendship is rather cheap."

After he finished speaking, he realized something was wrong. The girl had her head down, revealing only a section of her fair and delicate nape. She didn't stubbornly refute him, and he didn't know what she was thinking.

Just as he was about to say something more in frustration, he saw the girl quickly look up at him, and the tears that had been welling up in her eyes could no longer be held back and streamed down her face.

Pei Si: "..."

Ming Xiaoxiao seemed to have given up, crying as she said, "Yes, my definition of friendship is pretty cheap! Like you, the fact that you showed up today means I already consider you my most important friend!"

Are you secretly laughing at me for being a fool right now?

Pei Si: "Damn it, stop crying!" he roared irritably. "I consider you my best friend, okay?"
