Not paying back the money you owe!
These four words were deeply engraved in her heart like a brand. At this moment, Ye Ziqiu was furious because she finally knew who spread the rumor.
Li Heng, this filthy scoundrel, was truly desperate for chaos, finding fault with her at this crucial moment in her senior year of high school. At that moment, Ye Ziqiu wanted to kill him.
"Where are you going?" Wang Lan was shocked when she saw Ye Ziqiu's angry face.
"I'm going to settle the score with him." She clenched her fists tightly, with no place to vent her anger. If it was Li Heng standing in front of her, she would definitely beat him to death.
"Ye Ziqiu, the teacher is looking for you." Gao Jie said with a smile, "Hey, class teacher, if you don't go, your future is over."
The anger disappeared in an instant like a deflated ball. Ye Ziqiu gasped and forced himself to calm down.
She turned her head and gave Wang Lan a deep look, then said, "Whether you believe it or not, I didn't do anything like that. You're my best friend, you should believe me."
Wang Lan's behavior disappointed her. They had been together for three years, but the rumors had brought their relationship to a freezing point.
Ye Ziqiu even suspected that Wang Lan wanted to rely on him to become successful?
That's right. For the past three years, Wang Lan has relied on herself to help her with her homework and exams. Some people just don't deserve her. She doesn't need any friendship or family affection.
All she can arrange from beginning to end is her own life; she has no control over other people's lives.
Arriving at the office, Teacher Jia looked at the students he had taught, sighed deeply, and said, "Tell me, what happened?"
At this critical juncture of senior year, Teacher Jia doesn't want any outliers to appear in the class.
Ye Ziqiu's academic performance had always been among the best in the class, and he had a preconceived notion that he would do anything that harmed others for his own benefit. Similarly, he didn't want a student with bad morals in his class. If Ye Ziqiu was truly as bad as the rumors said, he would report the truth and not favor Ye Ziqiu personally.
"Teacher, I have been slandered. I have found the person who slandered me. It is Li Heng."
Teacher Jia pushed up his glasses and said, "Do you have any evidence?"
It was because of the lack of evidence that Ye Ziqiu felt so frustrated. She was so anxious that she almost cried. "Teacher, you have to believe me. I am definitely not the kind of person that the rumors say I am. I can prove it."
"What proof do you have? Do you know how much of an impact this incident has on the school?"
Teacher Jia sighed heavily and said, "If students behave improperly, the teachers are also responsible. If you don't handle your situation well, it will not only affect the entire class, but also us. How did you become enemies with Li Heng? Why would he slander you for no reason?"
"How should I know? Teacher Jia, this Li Heng is just a thug. Did you know that the last fight was caused by Li Heng and a few other thugs from the school?"
"What does that have to do with you?" Teacher Jia held his forehead, feeling that Ye Ziqiu was a little confused. "Why are you making enemies with those poor students? You're going to take the college entrance exam, and once you get into a good university, you won't be on the same level as them. Can't you just be patient?"
"Teacher, I'm a victim. How can I bear it?" Ye Ziqiu was tortured by the rumors and collapsed. If this continues, how can she have the mood to take the exam well?
"Teacher, please give me some time. I'll go and explain things to Li Heng. I'll handle the rumors, okay?"
It's not that Teacher Jia doesn't believe in his students' abilities and skills, but time is tight, and he doesn't have that much time to spare for Ye Ziqiu. He thought for a moment and said, "Why don't you call him over and discuss it? Give him some money and let the matter go, okay?"
"I still need to pay money? Teacher, I am the victim, okay?" And where would she get the money to give to others?
Teacher Jia said solemnly, "Ye Ziqiu, you haven't entered society yet and don't know what it means to lose the big picture for the sake of the small. I understand. It's better to resolve a feud than to create one. If you fight him at this critical juncture and both of you suffer losses, will it be good for your future?"
Ye Ziqiu couldn't help but retort, "But teacher, I was wronged. I didn't do those things at all. Why can't you believe me?"
"Okay, even if you are wrongly accused, do you have any evidence?"
Empty words, without even a witness. What could Ye Ziqiu use to fight a thug?
"Wake up. Even if you win the fight, you still have to stay in school for the full six months. Don't you want to continue to get along with your classmates?"
Ye Ziqiu was so angry that she couldn't stop crying. She had never suffered such a great injustice even at home, but now the rumors were about to destroy her.
Teacher Jia patted her shoulder and said softly, "Okay, don't cry. I know you've been wronged, but life still goes on, right? So, you can find Li Heng and I'll have a good talk with you two. If you give me some money, won't the problem be solved? Don't lose the big picture for the small. Don't forget that you still have your future."
Ye Ziqiu understood everything. Her dream had always been to escape her family background, study abroad, and finally achieve success. Then, she would return and tell those who had looked down on her that they were blind and had offended her. They were unworthy.
But Ye Ziqiu never thought that she did not fall into the trap of family problems, and was not half a head lower than others because of tuition fees. Just when she thought her future was bright, this incident happened.
This damn gangster Li Heng wanted to ruin her future. He really deserves to die.
And Qin Chuan, since he was his childhood sweetheart, why would he help an outsider like Li Heng? Or has Qin Chuan been brainwashed by Li Heng into thinking that he should pay him back?
Ye Ziqiu didn't know, she only knew that her mind was in a mess. Negative emotions such as grievance were fighting in her mind, and when she left the office, she was completely confused.
Is Li Heng still in the county? I guess he's gone now. How can I contact him?
Ye Ziqiu suddenly thought that Wu Yu was Li Heng's close friend, and as long as he met Wu Yu, he could contact Li Heng.
In a flash, she contacted Wu Yu through his brother and told him the purpose of her visit.
Wu Yu hadn't been involved in Li Heng's affairs since they parted ways. Hearing Ye Ziqiu's attempt to reconcile with Li Heng, Wu Yu began to make plans. He'd heard the rumors the other day, saying Ye Ziqiu had run off with a man and owed him money. The rumors seemed plausible. Could it be that Ye Ziqiu was involved with Li Heng?
The more Wu Yu thought about it, the more he felt it was possible. Qin Chuan was just a cover. Li Heng must have wanted to be with Ye Ziqiu, so he gave up his studies to make money.
