"I really envy you, suddenly you have a godfather and godmother who even give you money." Su Yue said to her with envy in her eyes, then added, "No wonder you suddenly have money to buy new clothes and shoes, were they bought by your godfather and godmother too?"
Seeing that she had come up with a reasonable explanation, Yuan Mengge nodded.
Cao Dan and Wei Jingting both looked enlightened; no wonder she suddenly had money to buy clothes.
The next two classes were not taught by the homeroom teacher. They were English and math classes. The teacher did not collect homework right away. Instead, the class monitor was asked to collect homework one minute before the end of the first get out of class.
As soon as school was over at noon, everyone rushed out of the classroom and ran to the cafeteria.
At this point, everyone was starving and wished they could rush to the cafeteria and stuff all the food, bowl and all, into their stomachs.
Yuan Mengge left her afternoon textbooks in her desk in the classroom, then left the classroom with her backpack and other books.
When she arrived at the cafeteria, she took her lunchbox out of the cabinet where the lunchboxes were kept.
Along the wall of the cafeteria, there is a row of wooden bowl racks for students to place their lunchboxes and bowls.
This way, students can leave their dishes here after washing them, without having to run back and forth to get them.
The dish rack was filled with all sorts of lunchboxes, and to prevent people from taking the wrong one, some even wrote their names on the outside of the bowls.
Because Yuan Mengge is considered tall for a girl, she chose the second-to-last shelf near the edge when she put the bowls away yesterday.
The top part is mostly boys' bowls, while the middle and bottom parts are mostly girls' bowls.
Yuan Mengge took her bowl, washed it, and then went to get her food.
She started to feel some stares and gazes while she was getting her food.
It seems that her story from this morning spread very quickly. Most of the students in the third year of junior high school know her, the students in the second year of junior high school know her only to some extent, and very few students in the first year of junior high school recognize her.
So most of the people who see her are students from the next class and students in the second year of junior high school.
However, these people just watched and didn't say anything to her face, so she pretended not to see them.
After getting my food, I found an empty seat and sat down.
People around her would glance at her from time to time and whisper among themselves.
Aside from following behind Shen Jiayi and her two companions, Yuan Pingping was usually alone at school; no one wanted to be with her.
Yuan Mengge did the same thing today. She sat quietly in a corner, ate her meal, washed the dishes, put them back on the dish rack, and then went back to her dormitory.
She was the first to return, followed by Su Yue and the others.
Wei Jingting returned and, looking at her curiously, asked, "Yuan Pingping, why did you cut ties with your family? Did you decide to cut ties yourself, or did your parents do it?"
Yuan Mengge looked at her and said, "I've answered your questions. Can we just wipe the slate clean now?"
Wei Jingting nodded: "Then it depends on the situation, but you don't need to pay me back."
Yuan Mengge said, "I want to leave on my own, and I don't want to say anything else."
"Won't your parents be furious?" Su Yue asked, looking at her.
Yuan Mengge: "If I don't leave, I'll be the one who gets angry to death later."
They all looked at her, puzzled, and asked, "How do you know what will happen in the future?"
Yuan Mengge said, "Based on my understanding of them, they won't allow me to do many of the things I want to do in the future, and they'll soon make me do things I don't want to do, just like my two older sisters..."
Su Yue: "Hmm... So you're cutting ties with your family just because of this? Won't you regret it? After all, they are your own parents."
Liu Xiaoqing and Zhou Xueqing returned to the dormitory. Upon seeing Yuan Mengge, they whispered to the others, "What happened? Did she say anything?"
Su Yue shook her head.
Yuan Mengge turned around and went to the bathroom to wash the sportswear she had changed out of that morning.
Then I took it back to the dormitory entrance and left it to dry in the corridor.
Su Yue stood at the door and looked up at the clothes she had hung out to dry in the corridor. This was already her third new outfit.
She really has a lot of clothes.
Although everyone was curious about what had happened between her and her family, no one dared to ask her too many questions.
But now everyone has a new feeling about her, a mixture of curiosity, surprise, and novelty.
Yuan Mengge climbed onto the bed and lay down.
The others gradually quieted down; some went to sleep, while others did not.
Yuan Mengge was half asleep when suddenly there was a knock on the dormitory door, and someone called out from the window, "Yuan Pingping, the teacher wants to see you in the office."
Yuan Mengge: "..."
"Okay," she replied, squinting as she got up, put on her coat, and then tiptoed off the bed.
The others who weren't asleep looked up, and the sleeping people woke up slightly before falling back asleep.
After Yuan Mengge went downstairs, she went to her office.
Shen Jiayi and her two companions were standing next to their parents, while He Qingfeng sat to the side.
"Come sit down," He Qingfeng said to her, pointing to the stool next to him.
Yuan Mengge walked over, sat down, and calmly looked at the people opposite her.
He Qingfeng said, "Shen Jiayi is willing to apologize to you, so... do you think you should accept her apology?"
Yuan Mengge had just woken up, her mind still heavy with sleepiness. She rubbed her temples with her eyes closed.
Then, glancing at Shen Jiayi, he said, "I only accept those who are sincere. If they aren't, then there's no point in talking. If this happens, there will be another time, and it will only go on and on, becoming more and more annoying."
Shen Jiayi's expression was indeed reluctant, but she sat obediently because her mother was present.
Upon hearing Yuan Mengge's words, Chen's mother immediately said, "Of course, we are very sincere. You and Jiayi are classmates, so we can easily resolve this matter by making it a small thing, right?"
After saying that, he turned to Shen Jiayi and said, "What are you standing there for? Quickly apologize to her!"
Shen Jiayi stared at Yuan Mengge with a gloomy face and said in a vicious voice, "I'm sorry!"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Mengge smiled and looked at He Qingfeng, saying, "Teacher, do you think this counts as sincerity? She seems to want to tear me to pieces."
He Qingfeng looked at Shen Jiayi and said in a deep voice, "Speak properly!"
Shen Jiayi's mother couldn't help but pat her on the shoulder: "I told you to speak properly! Didn't you understand?"
After being scolded by her own mother, Shen Jiayi took a deep breath, composed herself, and said again, "I'm sorry!"
Yuan Mengge then nodded: "Mm."
Then He Qingfeng said, "And for stealing the exam answers, all four of you will be punished."
Yuan Mengge replied, "I understand."
He Qingfeng then said to her, "Alright, you can go back now."
Yuan Mengge then left the office and went back to her dormitory.
She checked the time and realized it was still early before afternoon classes started, so she went back to her dorm to get her bag and went straight to the classroom.
