Chapter 103 White Lotus?
At this point, Yang Li bowed sincerely to apologize to everyone.
"Okay, since your hand was indeed injured at that time and you have apologized now, I will not hold it against you for what happened that day. You must not do this again in the future, or I will be angry with you."
Zhang Hua felt a little empathy when he saw her crying. The quarrel that day was not a big deal. He also threatened her at that time, and she calmed down. Now Yang Li apologized. I don't know how others feel, but she waved her hand and chose to reconcile.
There is no need to hold on to it. People always make mistakes. It is okay to correct them. For example, it is great that she can improve after she knows her mistakes. Xinghe is generous enough not to bring up the past with her. She has to follow Xinghe's pace. After the incident, she can forget about it after apologizing, but she will not give in if she makes trouble again.
Although the others did not say it, they still accepted Yang Li's apology. Although the knot in their hearts could not be dissipated, at least they felt better about her. However, they still had to think carefully about what happened today.
"Thank you, Zhang Hua."
After Yang Li thanked her, she looked up and saw everyone's expressions. She knew that they were still skeptical about what happened today and would not completely believe her, but she was relieved now and didn't care. She just wanted to say what she knew.
"I'm not apologizing today to win sympathy or anything, I just want to apologize for the wrong things I did before. And I'm not telling you about Wang Jia now to let you turn your anger to Wang Jia and forgive me. I just don't want to be used as a tool, and I don't want you to be deceived. Whether you believe it or not is your business, but I have to say it, otherwise I will feel uncomfortable."
After Yang Li finished speaking to the educated youth, she turned around and pointed at Wang Jia with a firm look and said loudly:
"But she, Wang Jia, must have said it deliberately for me to hear. In the past, she was always cold and seldom said anything, or she looked high and mighty and ignored everyone, or she was far away from everyone and kept to herself."
"Only that day, I was sitting in the house reading a book, and my hand was really painful. I cried out in pain a few times, and when I passed by her, by chance, I suddenly heard her muttering to herself as if she was worried."
"The original words were: (Screaming so loudly really affects my reading and rest. How can I study later? I can't concentrate. I'm so worried that it will affect the subsequent selection exam. It's so annoying.)"
Yang Li not only repeated the original words, but also imitated the tone and movements. Not to mention that the expression and tone were well-controlled, and it was very similar to the expression Wang Jia usually had when she spoke.
"How about this, Wang Jia, just tell me if I omitted or added a word to your words. You can deny it, but I have a clear conscience. There is absolutely no word that is not your original words."
Yang Li blocked all the loopholes that could be used for excuses, leaving no loopholes. Now she still has some brains.
When Yang Li and Wang Jia were talking alone before, she heard from their conversation that Wang Jia admitted that she had muttered in private, but she didn't say it in front of Yang Li. I just don't know what she would say in this situation now.
Liu Xinghe's eyes were focused on Wang Jia's various small details, subtle expressions and movements.
"Wang Jia, what do you want to say?"
Zhao Xifeng, the older sister who was like a dormitory manager for the female educated youth, actually believed what Yang Li said. It didn't sound like she was making up a lie, but she still didn't listen to one side of the story. Instead, she looked at Wang Jia, wanting to hear what she had to say.
Everyone's eyes turned to Wang Jia, looking at her sharply or inquiringly, waiting for her to speak out.
"You, you——"
What could Wang Jia say? She was so angry that she couldn't speak. She was blocked by Yang Li several times when she was about to speak. The anger was stuck in her heart, and she was in pain. She pointed at Yang Li and said "you" for a long time but couldn't say a complete sentence. She took
several deep breaths before she calmed down a little and spoke.
"At that time, everyone felt that your noise was too disturbing. I don't know how many times everyone grumbled in private. Ask them who in the Youth Corps has not grumbled. I guess only Liu Xinghe, who is not in the Youth Corps, has not grumbled." When
Wang Jia said this, Liu Xinghe knew that she didn't say it well. It seemed that she was picking herself out of the problem, but in fact she shifted the conflict to other educated youths and dragged them down with her.
Of course, this move was wrong. No one likes to be involved in the matter.
The other educated youths looked a little unnatural. Although they grumbled in private, they didn't let the parties involved hear it. Moreover, they grumbled in their hearts or behind people's backs. Who would grumble in front of others like her? It's no wonder that the parties involved misunderstood.
"Just say what you want to say. Why are you talking about us? Who said that in front of me? Besides, at the beginning, we sympathized with her injury and endured her screams, but no one said it out loud. At most, we just thought about it in our hearts. Later, it was only after she screamed for a long time that we started to grumble. This is what you are wrong." Li Zhizhi shouted unhappily.
Zhang Hua also looked at Wang Jia with dissatisfaction: "That's right, if she hadn't kept screaming later, would I have lost my temper and yelled at her, or scared her with a needle? This is all based on our reaction after she started to act on this matter. You can't change the concept. We didn't go to the person involved to complain from the beginning."
"I'm sorry, I'm the dumbest and said the wrong thing. I wanted to express that I didn't have the guesses that Yang Li said. I apologize."
Wang Jia regretted that she was so angry that she said something before she thought. She was also straightforward and apologized without hesitation, and then continued to refute Yang Li's words.
"Let's not talk about other things. How can my private grumblings affect you? I am telling the truth. Do I need your consent to say anything?
And you just deliberately distorted what I said. Aren't those words true? Not only did I not ask you to do anything to hurt others, I also praised them. I didn't want you to regret this exam because we are both educated youth. I suggested that you focus on studying. Am I wrong?" After asking two questions in a row
, Wang Jia turned to look at the educated youth and said,
"Do you know why I said those things to her? It was because I heard her cursing that none of you would pass the exam to become a teacher, so I interrupted and said that."
"I, if I had known you would misinterpret my words like this, I would not have said so much. It's my fault. I shouldn't have said so much. Blame me, blame me for everything. It's my fault. I'm nosy. I don't blame you, Yang Li, but myself. I'm sorry."
Wang Jia took a step back and slapped herself sadly, blaming herself for being too talkative.
Why did Wang Jia's last few words make her hear the scent of little white lotus? Liu Xinghe shook her shoulders. She was very sensitive to words like white lotus. She heard them a lot when she was working before. Now she can hear them for sure. She feels uncomfortable and wants to hit someone.
"Ah, I'm so angry. Who misinterpreted your words? Why did I only hear your mumbling? With my simple brain, can I think of such destructive things? If I hadn't suddenly cleared my mind today and wanted to get back at you, you would be a heartless person."
Yang Li was also stimulated by Wang Jia's words. She was very mad after hearing her self-blaming words. Just as Liu Xinghe thought, she stretched out her hand and rushed towards her, grabbing her hair with one hand and pulling it hard.
"You are still pretending to be weak and innocent, but you are not innocent. Why didn't I see that you are still this kind of person before? Let me see if I will beat you up."
"Ah--"
It happened very suddenly. Before Wang Jia could react, her hair was already grabbed by Yang Li and pulled back. Because she had short hair that reached her ears, she grabbed a handful of hair, which was very close to her scalp. She pulled hard and her head was pulled back 90 degrees. She screamed in pain.
