Meng Xueyun looked at Ye Linnan and Ye Linbei and loudly defended herself.
"Your sister Xiaohan and I were just discussing it. We didn't say you had to stop yours. Your sister Xiaohan wouldn't agree either, saying that she could stop hers, but you couldn't stop yours!"
She angrily accused him: "You two brothers are not young anymore, how can you run away after only hearing half of what's said and then falsely accuse your sister Xiaohan? What has become of you? You would never have done this before!"
Meng Zihan looked at the two brothers with teary eyes and cried out, "Xiao Nan, Xiao Bei, am I that kind of person?"
The two brothers exchanged a glance and remained silent.
Meng Zihan then looked at Ye Zhenghua and Meng Xueyun, "Aunt and Uncle, don't worry, I'll go find my sister tomorrow. She's definitely near the dormitory area and hasn't gone far, so you don't need to show up. Otherwise, it will be too much of a fuss and it won't be good for Uncle."
Meng Xueyun had no choice but to go find Ye Linchen, but asked worriedly, "Can you manage on your own?"
Meng Zihan nodded: "It's possible. I'm very close to my classmates. I'll ask them to go with me and tell them not to tell anyone. They'll definitely be willing."
Ye Zhenghua thought it was great that Meng Zihan took the initiative to do this, and said to the twins, "Your sister Xiaohan is usually sincere to people, which is why the classmates get along well with her and are willing to help her when needed. You should learn from her."
Meng Xueyun urged, "Where exactly did you see Xiao Chen? Tell your sister."
“I do remember.”
Ye Linbei still refused to speak and stepped into his own room.
Ye Linnan followed him into the house and slammed the door shut.
"Look at these two kids, what kind of attitude is that!" Meng Xueyun shouted angrily, pointing at the door.
Meng Zihan quickly comforted her, "Auntie, it's alright. I roughly know where they met; we'll definitely find them."
The next morning, Meng Zihan hurriedly ate a few bites of breakfast and ran out of the house.
She first went to Gu Yifei's home in the factory director's building.
Gu Yifei had obviously just gotten up, and he was still a little sleepy when he opened the door.
Seeing Meng Zihan, he was a little surprised: "Zihan, so early? Is something the matter?"
Meng Zihan was a little embarrassed.
"Did I disturb you?"
Gu Yifei shook his head and invited her inside.
"No, my parents are both at work, and I'm home alone with nothing to do. Come in."
He helped Meng Zihan sit down on the sofa and then busied himself pouring her water.
Meng Zihan quickly stopped him: "Yifei, you don't need to bother. I asked you for help."
"What kind of help?" Gu Yifei asked curiously.
Meng Zihan bit her lower lip, hesitated for a moment, and then said with difficulty, "My cousin, Ye Linchen, ran away from home!"
Gu Yifei was taken aback: "Run away? When did this happen?"
“He ran out yesterday at noon and never came back.”
"He hasn't come back all night?" Gu Yifei was even more surprised.
He suddenly remembered that when he and Gu Jingran returned home yesterday at noon, they did see Ye Linchen running out.
There were still scars on his face.
Later, Gu Jingran followed Feng Linlin to pursue her, but Gu Yifei forgot to ask what happened in the end.
Remembering Feng Linlin's words, he immediately asked Meng Zihan, "I heard from Feng Linlin that you started this argument? And Aunt Meng even hit Ye Linchen?"
Meng Zihan's eyes reddened, and she said aggrievedly, "What does this have to do with me! She cheated on the exam, and my aunt found out. She said a few words to her, and then she talked back to my aunt, saying that she wasn't my aunt's daughter and that my aunt was immoral. My aunt got angry and hit her. She said she wanted to sever ties with her family, not acknowledge my aunt as her mother, and then she ran away."
"Cheating?" Gu Yifei frowned, grasping the crux of the matter. "What did she cheat on?"
"She cheated on the entrance exam and got into the top class..."
"Cheating to get into the top class?" Gu Yifei interrupted her.
This sounds a bit far-fetched.
Ms. Li is very responsible; how could anyone cheat under her nose?
This Ye Linchen is quite capable!
Meng Zihan nodded, wiped her eyes with the back of her hand, and choked up as she said, "Yes, the learning conditions in the countryside are so poor, and her grades weren't good before, how could she possibly get into the top class? She must have cheated."
Gu Yifei thought about it and felt that Meng Zihan made sense.
It's likely that Teacher Li was deceived by Ye Linchen's honest demeanor and lowered her guard.
He became increasingly disgusted with Ye Linchen's behavior.
Cheating, deceiving teachers, verbally abusing his mother, frequently running away from home...
Meng Zihan added, "She also stole the Walkman and study materials my aunt bought for me, and she often bullies me, saying I'm not a member of the Ye family and that I'm taking her place..."
Gu Yifei was even more furious and comforted Meng Zihan: "Don't be sad. Why would someone like that want to be with her? She should suffer a bit outside."
Meng Zihan sighed: "But my aunt and uncle are very worried about her and hope she can come home. I don't want her to refuse to come back because of me. If she is willing, I can leave."
Gu Yifei was moved.
Meng Zihan was bullied like this, yet she still wanted to find Ye Linchen. She's so kind.
He was right.
Feng Linlin misunderstood Meng Zihan.
Seeing Meng Zihan looking at him expectantly, and remembering that she was the first person to ask him for help when she was in trouble, a surge of pride welled up in his heart.
He absolutely has to help with this!
Gu Yifei comforted Meng Zihan: "Zihan, don't worry, I'll take care of this! I'll call a few classmates over, and we'll all help you look for it."
After saying that, he walked to the glass cabinet, opened the cabinet door, took out a box of juice, skillfully poured a glass, and handed it to Meng Zihan.
Meng Zihan accepted the juice with both hands and nodded gratefully to Gu Yifei: "Thank you, Yifei."
"No need to thank me, we're like family! I'm going to wash up first, I just woke up." He pointed to the bathroom and said apologetically.
"Okay, go ahead, no rush." Meng Zihan's face also turned red.
"Wait for me a moment, I'll be there soon."
Gu Yifei rushed into the bathroom, while Meng Zihan smiled and took a sip of juice.
It tastes so good!
I just looked at that juice box, and it was all printed in English. It must be an imported juice, right?
The Ye family has to be careful with their milk, unlike the Gu family who can drink such delicious juice as they please.
She drank while looking around.
The spacious and bright living room is furnished with stylish and elegant furniture.
The beige wallpaper and the oil paintings hanging on the wall made everything look so exquisite.
The stark contrast with the cramped and dimly lit living room of the Ye family made her even more envious.
I wish I could live in a house like that...
Gu Yifei washed up very quickly, finishing in less than five minutes.
His hair was wet, his face was still wet, and he was holding a piece of bread in his hand.
"Wait for me to find someone."
