An An's eyes widened as she looked at Chen Jiaojiao in disbelief: "Is Zhang Mingcheng crazy? Why would he keep someone at home for the New Year? This doesn't seem appropriate."
"Besides, aren't there many students in the school who don't go home for the New Year? They can celebrate the New Year together."
Chen Jiaojiao said aggrievedly: "That's what I said too. There are so many students from far away places in the school who don't go home to save money. Why can't Sun Jingya spend the New Year with them? And the school dormitory is open to them during holidays. It's not like we don't have a place to live, so how can it be dangerous?"
"When I said that, Zhang Mingcheng said I was narrow-minded, saying that he and Sun Jingya were both members of the student union, and Sun Jingya helped him on weekdays. Now that he saw his classmate staying alone at school for the New Year, what was wrong with inviting her to his home for the New Year? It was just a New Year's Eve dinner, and Sun Jingya would be back at school on the first day of the new year."
"He also said that he just felt sorry for Sun Jingya. She studied hard despite her difficult family conditions and was able to pass the entrance exam to Beijing. He was very moved by her spirit and thought it was worth learning from. He really just admired Sun Jingya's tenacious character."
An An was so exhausted that he didn't have much experience to begin with. Apart from wanting to beat up Zhang Mingcheng, he had no other ideas or suggestions for Chen Jiaojiao.
Chen Jiaojiao wiped her tears and said, "I just went to see Su Meng. Su Meng and her parents went abroad to celebrate the New Year. They won't be back until after the New Year."
An An had no choice but to say, "What should we do? How about we go talk to Zhang Mingcheng?"
Chen Jiaojiao pursed her lips and was silent for a long time: "When Zhang Mingcheng and I were arguing, Sun Jingya heard us and ran away. Now I don't know where she went."
An An exclaimed: "Why is she running?"
Chen Jiaojiao shook her head: "You know, Zhang Mingcheng and I live in the same neighborhood. I went to talk to him by the bulletin board next to his house. Who knew that Sun Jingya heard everything from behind?"
An An frowned: "What should we do? Why don't you go back first and talk to Zhang Mingcheng tomorrow."
Chen Jiaojiao hesitated for a moment: "I want to go find Sun Jingya. What if she runs away like that? What if she gets into danger? Zhang Mingcheng will definitely blame me then."
An An was a little puzzled: "It's broad daylight, how could there be any danger? Besides, she must have gone to school. Since she heard it, she should be embarrassed to spend the New Year at Zhang Mingcheng's house. This is also good."
Chen Jiaojiao was not so optimistic: "That's not the case. I'll still go look for her. If I don't see her, I won't feel at peace."
An An had no choice. She had no idea how to help Chen Jiaojiao, so she could only accompany Chen Jiaojiao to find Sun Jingya.
The two went to school, and Chen Jiaojiao took An Anyou to the dormitory again, and this time she met Sun Jingya. However, Sun Jingya's eyes were red and swollen, and she had been crying for a long time.
Seeing Chen Jiaojiao and An An, Sun Jingya came out and said, "Chen Jiaojiao, I didn't expect you to misunderstand me. Zhang Mingcheng and I don't have any shameful relationship. We are really just classmates. I agreed to go to Zhang Mingcheng's house to celebrate the New Year because I didn't think carefully. I really missed home and had never been away from home for such a long time. So when he said it, I agreed because I didn't want to eat alone on New Year's Eve."
An An looked at Sun Jingya, who was crying with tears in her eyes. She seemed quite pitiful, and her words were sincere and heartfelt, as if Chen Jiaojiao really misunderstood her.
I actually felt a little sympathy for Sun Jingya for a moment. It was really pitiful that she couldn't go home for the New Year.
Chen Jiaojiao was still very calm: "I have no opinion on where you go to celebrate the New Year. The problem between Zhang Mingcheng and I has nothing to do with you. If you cry like this, people who don't know will think that I bullied you."
Sun Jingya quickly shook her head, tears streaming down her cheeks. "No, no, you didn't bully me. I just felt guilty because of the quarrel between you and Zhang Mingcheng. I really blame myself too much. I didn't think so much about it before, but after I came back, I realized that I really shouldn't have made things difficult for you."
Chen Jiaojiao frowned: "Then why are you running? If you feel guilty, you can tell me directly. If you run away, if something happens, it will definitely be my responsibility. And don't you know that Zhang Mingcheng will be worried?"
Sun Jingya was stunned for a moment, with a guilty look on her face: "I'm sorry, I didn't think too much about it at the time. I just felt so embarrassed that I made you quarrel with Zhang Mingcheng, and I left because I was embarrassed to see you."
Chen Jiaojiao suddenly didn't know what to say, because no matter what she said, Sun Jingya would apologize to her with a guilty look on her face, saying that it was always her fault.
An An was also dumbfounded. She had never seen a girl with such a personality. If she had not stood firmly on Chen Jiaojiao's side, she would have sympathized with Sun Jingya.
Seeing Chen Jiaojiao didn't say anything, Sun Jingya reached out and wiped her tears: "Chen Jiaojiao, if you are still angry, I apologize to you and will keep my distance from Zhang Mingcheng in the future. But I still want to make one thing clear, there is really nothing between us. I know you are her girlfriend, and you don't have any thoughts about him beyond friendship."
What could Chen Jiaojiao say? She could only frown and say, "Then I hope you can keep your word. It would be bad if people misunderstood you."
Sun Jingya nodded repeatedly: "Don't worry, I will definitely keep my distance from Zhang Mingcheng in the future, I won't go to him again, and I won't make you angry."
"Chen Jiaojiao!"
Before Sun Jingya finished her words, Zhang Mingcheng appeared out of nowhere and looked at Chen Jiaojiao with a sullen face.
Chen Jiaojiao was also surprised: "Why are you here?"
Zhang Mingcheng's eyes were blazing with anger: "If I hadn't come, I wouldn't have known you were threatening me like this?"
Then he looked at Sun Jingya again, and his tone softened a lot: "You don't have to promise her anything. There's nothing wrong between you and me. We are honest and aboveboard. If she's so suspicious, I can't do anything about it. But there's no need to involve you."
Sun Jingya shook her head repeatedly: "No, it's all my fault that Jiaojiao misunderstood."
Zhang Mingcheng felt more and more embarrassed: "You really don't have to apologize. My helping you is also helping each other as classmates. She got angry at me. I'm really sorry for getting you into trouble today. Go back to the dormitory first. Chen Jiaojiao and I have something to talk about."
Sun Jingya hesitated for a few seconds, then turned to look at Chen Jiaojiao: "Jiaojiao, don't be angry. I will definitely not show up again and cause you two to have misunderstandings. Just forgive him."
Chen Jiaojiao didn't know why, but after hearing these words, she felt a churning discomfort in her stomach. She kept a cold face and said nothing.
Sun Jingya looked at Zhang Mingcheng again: "Be patient with Jiaojiao. She is angry because she cares about you. It's my fault. Don't be angry because of me. I'm leaving now."
After saying this, he walked away, looking back every few steps, looking at Zhang Mingcheng with tears in his eyes.
An An was surprised. This ordinary classmate seemed a little extraordinary.
