Lin Dan took Yu Yeying back to the classroom. She walked slowly across the aisle and returned to her seat. The students on both sides looked at her with some indescribable meaning. She has a very thin waist, which swings back and forth unconsciously when she walks. Her fluffy and soft hair hangs down like seaweed, giving her a natural charm.
Gao Shukai scratched his hair, seeming a little annoyed. He looked at Lin Dan for a while, wanting to say something but stopping himself. Then he clenched his fists and looked out the window, and it was unknown what he was struggling with. Ma Rui, who was sitting not far from him, stared straight at Lin Dan, his eyes full of aggression.
A group of girls gathered together to chat, and occasionally words like "Really? You have no self-respect" would be uttered, and their eyes would occasionally glance towards the last row. Surrounded in the crowd were Xu Xin and Huang Xuan. No one knew what they said, but everyone looked shocked, then covered their mouths with contempt on their faces.
Lin Dan always turned a blind eye to people she didn't care about. She was never interested in what these people talked about after class every day. But today, after listening carefully, she realized that the focus of their discussion had always been herself.
Lin Dan spread out his palms and smiled meaningfully.
Yu Yeying stared at the group of tiny mosquitoes flying out of her palm and asked curiously, "Lin Dan, what kind of Gu is this?"
Lin Dan did not answer, but just put her index finger against her red lips, making a gesture to keep quiet.
Yu Yeying quickly covered her mouth with a smile in her eyes.
Mosquitoes flew over everyone's heads and drilled into the ears of the girls who were chatting most enthusiastically. They were unaware of what was happening and continued to talk freely. They started laughing as they talked, with deep malice in their voices. Using other people's suffering as their own gossip, or even fabricating a scandal to discredit others, seems to have become their life pleasure.
Seeing that the insects had all returned to their owners, Lin Dan stood up slowly, walked to Xu Xin's desk, and asked, "What are you talking about?"
Xu Xin originally intended to say "We didn't talk about anything", but when she opened her mouth it became: "We talked about you being a prostitute."
"I've been a prostitute, how could I not know that? I told you all this when I sent Ye Ying home. She and I have been living in the Miao village for the past three years. We are innocent and upright. Why did you make up rumors about us? She didn't come back that year because she lost some of her memory, not because she was too ashamed to come back as you said." Lin Dan spoke calmly.
Xu Xin wanted to say that she didn't make up rumors, but what she said turned into: "I am just making up rumors about you, what's wrong? Isn't it good for Yu Yeying to die outside? Why did she come back? My house is to be left to me and my brother, not her! She even dared to find a lawyer to sue us and ask us to pay her child support. She is too shameless! My dad said that if our family has to pay her child support, I will have no pocket money. Instead of letting her come back to steal my things, I might as well force her to death first! She eloped with someone at the age of thirteen. She is so shameless. She shouldn't be alive!"
Lin Dan frowned, having never expected that a girl who had just turned sixteen could say such vicious words.
The girls standing around were all stunned, some had excitement in their eyes, and some had a look of disgust on their faces. When they criticize others, they have no purpose but to satisfy their curiosity and gossip mentality. But after listening to Xu Xin's confession, they finally realized that human hearts could be so sinister.
They slowly backed away, unconsciously moving a little further away from Xu Xin.
Lin Dan turned to look at Huang Xuan and said, "Whether Yu Yeying eloped with someone or not, you should know this best, right?"
Huang Xuan wanted to say "It's none of my business, I don't know", but she admitted it directly: "Yu Yeying didn't elope with anyone. I was going to meet an online friend and left her alone on the mountain. When I went to look for her, she was gone. My parents are very strict with me. If they knew that I went out to meet an online friend and lost Yu Yeying, they would definitely beat me to death! I had no choice but to lie to them and say that Yu Yeying eloped with someone. I feel guilty all these years, I'm really sorry!"
As soon as she said this she started to sob, looking very pitiful.
The classmates around her all looked at her in astonishment.
Lin Dan said slowly: "Your apology is spreading rumors about Ye Ying everywhere?"
Huang Xuan shook her head, her face full of grievance: "I don't want to do this either, but once she comes back, my lies will be exposed. In order to strike first, I can only make up rumors about her and force her away. After she leaves, no one will know about what I did back then. I know it's my fault, but I can't let her come back. I'm really sorry."
Lin Dan revealed: "You knew you were wronging her, but you still wanted to hurt her. In the final analysis, it was just to protect your own interests. It's bad luck for Ye Ying to have a friend like you."
The students around them retreated further away, as if Xu Xin and Huang Xuan were a scourge. They are the kind of people who can push others to the edge of a knife for their own benefit. Making friends with them is like jumping into a fire pit! Yu Yeying is too miserable. After being cheated by Huang Xuan, she was cheated by Xu Xin. These two people are going to cheat her to death!
However, the matter was not over yet. Lin Dan looked at Xu Xin again and said, "You were so confident and skilled in spreading rumors about others. You must have done similar things many times, right?"
I don't! Xu Xin wanted to refute immediately, but her mouth was out of control: "Yes, I did it a lot, so what? I didn't kill anyone! My physical education teacher always asked us to run 800 meters during class. I was impatient to run, so I sued him for sexual harassment. He was later expelled from the school and paid my dad 300,000 yuan to settle the matter privately. In the end, he couldn't get over it and jumped off the building to commit suicide. If he wants to die, that's his business. What does it have to do with me? Spreading rumors can benefit me, so why shouldn't I? If I can force him to death, I can naturally force Ye Ying to death. Yu Yeying, just wait!"
Xu Xin turned around and looked at Yu Yeying with a very ferocious expression. Yu Yeying's eyes immediately turned red and she shrank her neck, looking frightened.
The classmates in the class were suddenly in an uproar. Most of them have not yet witnessed the cruelty of society, so naturally they do not know the wickedness of human nature. However, Xu Xin and Huang Xuan's performance today taught them the most vivid lesson.
"How vicious! They will do anything for their own benefit!"
"She forced the teacher to death. Doesn't she feel any guilt at all? How can she have the nerve to say it out loud?"
"Because she has no moral sense or bottom line at all! I recorded a video and I will expose her on the campus website! I was also promoted from Shuguang Middle School. I know that teacher. He is a very nice person. He carried me to the hospital when I fell. I couldn't believe he would do such a thing before, but now it seems that he was wronged."
Everyone started talking about it, and Xu Xin's smug expression gradually turned into panic amid the discussions. She grabbed her hair, totally unable to believe that she had just said those words. How could she?
Lin Dan looked at Xu Xin deeply, then walked back to his seat. Yu Yeying immediately took her arm and rubbed her shoulder.
Xu Xin sat in her seat in a daze. Her desk mate came over and said hesitantly, "Xiao Xin, those things you just said were all lies, right? I know you are not that kind of person." Because she was too fat, no one in the class was willing to be friends with this girl. Only Xu Xin was willing to play with her, so she trusted her so much.
Xu Xin originally wanted to save her reputation, but she ended up cursing: "Get out of here, fat bitch! I feel sick when I see your greasy face! If your family didn't have some money and you were willing to buy me things and treat me to a meal, do you think I would care about you? I was the one who spread the news that you liked Zhou Nan, and I just wanted to embarrass you."
The girl was completely stunned, her face full of disbelief.
"Fuck, this kind of person is absolutely amazing! Why do all the girls in the class want to be friends with her?" The boy was amazed at Xu Xin's viciousness.
"It's so scary! I'll never dare to trust anyone again!" Several girls who were good friends with Xu Xin and Huang Xuan almost cried. They shuddered at the thought of two such poisonous snakes lurking around them.
The fat girl didn't come to her senses until the bell rang. Her eyes were red and she seemed to be suppressing her inner grief and anger.
The teacher glanced at her and didn't ask any more questions. Anyway, she is always bullied by her classmates, so she should be used to it.
No one was listening carefully in this class. Everyone's eyes would unconsciously look in the direction of Xu Xin and Huang Xuan, revealing expressions of disgust or contempt. The pain they inflicted on others finally came back upon themselves one day.
However, things are far from over.
After class, the head teacher came over with a stern face, first called Huang Xuan out for a talk, and then called Xu Xin out. Their inner confessions have spread through the campus network. The teacher who managed the network noticed the incident first and then notified the school leaders. We are all educators in the same system, so we naturally feel sympathy for the physical education teacher who "committed suicide out of fear of punishment." He did nothing wrong, but lost his life because of his students' rumors. He works diligently for his students, but what do his students give him in return?
His suicide by jumping off a building was widely reported by the media. His family lived under abuse every day. The only savings they had were compensated to Xu Xin's father. They have now sold the house and are preparing to move elsewhere. However, because Xu Xin was a minor, he was well protected. The Education Bureau launched several "criticism and denunciation campaigns" among teachers in an effort to prevent similar incidents, but it turned out to be nothing but slander.
It is said that when lips and teeth are gone, one's own kind will be hurt. Seeing Xu Xin's arrogant remarks and thinking of the physical education teacher's experience of having his family broken up, the teachers of Haicheng No. 1 Middle School were trembling in their hearts. The evil of children is often innocent and taken for granted, which is more frightening than the evil of adults.
In order to maintain the school's reputation, the school leaders seemed to want to suppress the incident, but the teacher who managed the campus network had quietly saved the video and sent it to the family of the physical education teacher.
