Shen Jingyan slightly moved the corners of her mouth, revealing a mocking smile.
Compared to Zhao Yanyan, she was like a world apart.
Zhao Yanyan is a golden phoenix that flew out of a chicken coop, while Zhao Yanyan is a black crow that flew out of a phoenix nest.
They're both birds, so why are they so different?
"Yan Yan, take a look in the jewelry box. Is anything still missing?"
Zhu Xiaoqin was afraid that Zhao Yanyan would lose control again and fight Shen Jingyan to the death.
Not wanting her daughter to be beaten again, she quickly called out to her to distract her.
Zhao Yanyan went to check the jewelry box. As soon as Zhu Xiaoqin removed the bedding, Shen Jingyan helped Zhao Yanyan put the bedding on top of it.
Duan Meishan understood everything when she met Zhao Yanyan.

She stood up, supporting her pregnant belly, and said in a friendly manner, "Let me help you get ready!"
Zhao Yanyan quickly helped her up: "No need, no need! You should sit down and rest. I don't have much stuff!"
Their intimacy drew a hateful look from Zhao Yanyan.
When she first came to the dormitory, why wasn't Duan Meishan so enthusiastic?
She rummaged through the jewelry box a few times, then suddenly shouted, "Where's my pearl necklace?"
Zhu Xiaoqin hurriedly asked, "What pearl necklace?"
Zhao Yanyan turned the jewelry box upside down, stamping her foot in frustration: "It's the pearl necklace I just bought a week ago, and I've only worn it once!"
Zhao Yanyan had so many pieces of jewelry that she wore a different one almost every day, and Zhu Xiaoqin didn't even know which pearl necklace she had lost.
"Don't panic. Did it fall under the bed or into the gap in the closet?"
"Impossible! I put it in my jewelry box! I remember it clearly, it must have been stolen!"

Zhao Yanyan didn't even bother to look for anything before starting to make wild guesses.
Zhu Xiaoqin quickly tugged at her arm: "Let's look for it first!"
She was furious that her daughter had spoken without thinking.
There are only a few people in the dormitory. When she shouts like that, isn't she just accusing her roommate of being a thief to their face?
She's learned so many lessons, but why can't she learn to read people's expressions?
Zhao Yanyan was convinced that her pearl necklace had been stolen.
Shen Jingyan and Huang Yuexi are both very wealthy, and Huang Yuexi comes from a well-off family, so it's unlikely they would steal her things. Zhao Yanyan is a newcomer, so it's also unlikely she would steal her things.
That leaves only Duan Meishan!
She was a poor country bumpkin who would break a steamed bun in half and eat it over two meals. She had never seen such fine jewelry as a pearl necklace.
Having made up her mind, she rushed up to Duan Meishan and loudly questioned her:
password
"Did you steal my necklace? Hand it over!"
Duan Meishan was startled; she almost pricked her finger with the needle.
She looked at Zhao Yanyan with a puzzled expression: "Why would I steal your necklace?"
"You're the poorest in the dorm! If you didn't steal it, who did?"
Zhao Yanyan retorted defiantly, "You seem to be living quite comfortably lately. Did you steal my necklace to sell for money? You penniless wretch, have you no shame?"
Even with her good temper, Duan Meishan could not tolerate such rude accusations.
She threw down the clothes in her hand with a "thud" and stood up to confront Zhao Yanyan.
"You've always been sarcastic and bullied me because I'm honest, fine, but why did you frame me for theft without any evidence? I may be poor, but I'm not a bad person!"
Duan Meishan finally understood that Shen Jingyan was absolutely right. When dealing with someone like Zhao Yanyan, one cannot be soft-hearted or tolerate her repeatedly.
The more you act this way, the more she'll think you're weak and easily bullied, and the more she'll take advantage of you.
This time, she chose to fight back bravely.
Seeing the two start fighting, Zhu Xiaoqin quickly pulled Zhao Yanyan behind her.
"Stop arguing, stop arguing! Go get a flashlight and shine it under the bed!"
Shen Jingyan and Zhao Yanyan made way for Zhu Xiaoqin to bend down and look under the bed.
Zhao Yanyan, however, yelled and screamed at Duan Meishan fiercely, grabbing her collar and shaking her violently.
"You stole it! Hand it over right now! Otherwise, I'll take you to the police station! Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you're pregnant!"
Duan Meishan protected her stomach with both arms, and was so shaken that she almost lost her balance.
Shen Jingyan grabbed Zhao Yanyan's hair and threw her aside.
"Zhao Yanyan, stop wrongly accusing innocent people. I suggest you watch your mouth and stop spewing nonsense everywhere and annoying people!"
Zhu Xiaoqin found these words extremely offensive.
Her daughter is a bit impulsive, but it's understandable that she would be anxious about losing something valuable.
Why does Shen Jingyan always pick on her daughter and say such hurtful things?
She angrily shielded Zhao Yanyan behind her and scolded her in an elder's tone:
"Shen Jingyan, how could you say such awful things? You dared to hit Yan Yan in front of the hospital leaders. You're supposed to be the top liberal arts student, yet you physically assaulted and verbally abused my Yan Yan. Don't you have any manners as a college student?"
Shen Jingyan found this statement utterly ridiculous.
The most ill-mannered person was her precious daughter, whom she was protecting behind her.
Why is it that when her precious daughter hits or curses, it's considered bad temper and understandable, but when it's someone else, it's considered lack of manners?
She retorted sarcastically, "You think you're so cultured? Your daughter talks back to a professor in class, throws foot-washing water on someone's bedding, falsely accuses someone of stealing for no reason, and calls them a poor wretch. Is that what you call being cultured?"
