Chapter 59
During the break, a girl took Wang Jiazhi's hand and exclaimed, "Oh, you're so beautiful."
Wang Jiazhi weaved a big red carnation into a ring and wore it on her middle finger. The small flower bloomed beautifully, with a black center that was just the width of her knuckle, making it perfect for making a ring.
Wang Jiazhi smiled and said, "I think this flower is so beautiful, and the size is just right."
Then he took it off and the girl put it on and played with it for a while.
A girl in the distance said to another, "Wang Jiazhi only likes to get these cheap and worthless things, as if she is so elegant. Everyone else is just vulgar."
"There's nothing we can do. She also wants to wear jewelry like those young ladies like Jin Qiaochu. Without money, she can only be elegant. No matter how much she tries to show off now, she's penniless. Let's see how she'll live in the future."
"That's right. Look at her, she only eats steamed buns and free soup for two meals a day. How can she live?"
Meihui came over and said to them, "Did you know? Huangliju didn't come to class today."
Only then did Wang Jiazhi and Xiaoshuang realize that Huangli Ju had not come.
"You live next door, did you hear anything?"
Xiaoshuang shook her head.
Meihui said, "You live so close to her, I know everything, but you don't."
Xiao Shuang asked, "What happened?"
Meihui said, "Some people said that the jewelry she was wearing was borrowed from Jin Qiaochu and wasn't hers at all. She had to curry favor with him to get it in exchange for saving face. Her boyfriend felt so embarrassed that he scolded her."
Everyone was stunned. They had long wondered where the jewelry came from. Although Huang Liju's family was better off than the others, they couldn't afford to buy her such expensive items.
Xiao Shuang said, "Her boyfriend insisted that she wear it to save face, so she had no choice but to do so. But when something went wrong, she bit back."
After school, Wang Jiazhi and Xiaoshuang went to the next door and knocked on the door. In fact, they didn’t want to care about this matter. They just heard that the house was quiet and Huang Liju didn’t go out, so they were afraid that something might have happened.
Huangli Ju opened the door, looking disheveled, with tear marks all over her face, and her eyes were red and swollen from crying.
The first thing she said was, "What should I do? He's really mad at me and keeps ignoring me."
Wang Jiazhi and Xiaoshuang felt that death was better than nothing.
The two listened to Huang Liju's story, offering only polite comfort and no advice. They didn't want to get involved in this messy situation.
Before leaving, Wang Jiazhi said, "Don't worry, he won't break up with you."
"Really, he said he was disappointed in me, but what can I do?"
Wang Jiazhi thought to herself, "It would be strange if he was willing to break up with the God of Wealth."
Later, Jin Qiaochu took the initiative to say that she had never lent the jewelry to Huang Liju, and that the jewelry belonged to Huang Liju. She couldn't bear to see Huang Liju suffer an injustice because of this incident.
Jin Qiaochu and Huang Liju were not familiar with each other, and it was Huang Liju who managed to borrow the jewelry after much deliberation and bribed Jin Qiaochu's best friend. However, this time she was too embarrassed to ask Jin Qiaochu for help, so Jin Qiaochu took the initiative to help her after he found out.
But no one believed it was fake.
