And you're the one who likes Dong Weiguo but you're framing me. You're the one who always drags me around asking about Dong Weiguo. I only helped you ask about those things because I genuinely consider you a friend. I never expected that it would become your reason to slander me, saying that I was asking about Dong Weiguo everywhere. It's bad enough that I'm being pointed at and gossiped about by my classmates.

It's one thing for you to lie about these trivial matters, but I never imagined you could be so cruel to your own father. Although Uncle Yang may have done wrong, all of us classmates know how good he is to you. How could you be so heartless as to report him, causing him to be paraded in the streets and now he's been sent down to the far northwest?

Yang Wanqiu, tell me, how can I still consider you a friend when you spread rumors about your friends over such a small misunderstanding, and even report your own father?

"How did you know? No, no, I didn't, it was clearly..."

Yang Wanqiu was interrupted by Chen Shuning before she could finish speaking.

Chen Shuning looked aggrieved, her eyes reddening. "Yang Wanqiu, I want to tell you again, I don't like Dong Weiguo, and I've never thought of competing with you for anyone. You always caused me trouble at school. Now that I'm in the countryside, I beg you to leave me alone. I really don't dare to be friends with someone like you anymore."

Besides, making friends is a two-way street. I can't just cater to you because you say you want to be friends, can I? This isn't the old society anymore. You're not some feudal bureaucrat or landlord; how can you just do whatever you say?

After saying that, Chen Shuning shut up and ignored Yang Wanqiu, who was actually crying from anger. Instead, she lay down on the small table, her little shoulders trembling.

Those who didn't know her thought she was crying on the table because she was so upset, but only Chen Shuning knew that she was laughing because she saw Yang Wanqiu really crying.

Listening to the increasing accusations against Yang Wanqiu from those around him, Chen Shuning felt as refreshed as if he had eaten ice cream on a hot day.

Of course, it's also possible that she didn't sleep well last night and got up too early today. Chen Shuning, who was lying on the small table, soon drifted off to sleep.

Chen Shuning slept soundly, but Yang Wanqiu was truly panicked. Although many people would report their relatives to protect themselves these days.

Most people outwardly express understanding, but behind the scenes, who would dare to associate with someone who would even report their closest relatives for their own benefit?

So Yang Wanqiu anonymously threw that whistleblower letter into the police station, and no one should have known about it. How did Chen Shuning find out?

Judging from her confident demeanor, she didn't seem to be bluffing. Could it be that Chen Shuning really was reborn like herself? If so, would she discover the secret of her rebirth? After all, her fate in this life had already changed the moment she was reborn.

The more Yang Wanqiu thought about it, the more frightened she became. She could no longer hear what the people around her were saying. Not wanting to stay by Chen Shuning's side for even a moment longer, she picked up her luggage and ran to another carriage without looking back.
