When Ji Ling saw Zhu Heping, she knew that she couldn't avoid what happened today.
She let Miao Man and the other two go first. Miao Man gave her a look of encouragement, as if she was very excited and had been waiting for this moment.
Ji Ling was so amused that she watched the three of them leave before walking up to Zhu Heping and asking, "Don't you have classes this afternoon?"
Zhu Heping stared at her face which was swollen like a steamed bun. "You have been beaten like this, and you have no mind to attend classes."
"It's okay. The other party didn't do it on purpose." Ji Ling was afraid that he would cause trouble. "I have already talked to the other party, and he has apologized for this."
"The other party's apology was to let Jiang Zheng find you, and then turned around and said that you took advantage of your power to find me?" Zhu Heping had a smile on his face, but Ji Ling saw a hint of hostility.
The smile on her face faded, "Jiang Zheng is looking for you?"
"She said you have no sympathy and are petty, bringing disgrace to the Zhu family."
Ji Ling let out an "oh".
Zhu Heping sighed, "It's time to go to class, right? I'll take you there."
Ji Ling glanced at him and they both walked towards the classroom.
On the way, Ji Ling briefly talked about what happened in the morning and Jiang Zheng's visit to her in the dormitory at noon. "The other party wanted to find Gao Jing. If I really wanted to settle the score, I should find that man, not Gao Jing. I wanted to ask Gao Jing about this later, but I didn't expect Jiang Zheng to get involved again."
Finally, they went to Zhu Heping to make trouble.
That would be going too far.
"That Gao Jing doesn't sound like a good person either." Zhu Heping said bluntly. As they were about to reach the classroom, he reminded them, "Don't say anything or stop me from doing anything. Our family is not inferior to others and we have no right to be bullied."
When Zhu Heping was about to send her over, Ji Ling had already guessed what he was going to do. As a man who usually loved to fight, it was rare that he could endure until now and rush to her to ask what happened when Jiang Zheng went to find him.
She can't just not care and let the people who care about her feel suffocated.
When the two arrived at the classroom, they immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Zhu Heping is good-looking, but he is also a notorious troublemaker in school. He also walks with Ji Ling. Some people who don't know the inside story are very surprised. But when Zhu Heping walks in front of Jiang Zheng and says "sister-in-law", everyone understands.
Ji Ling married Zhu Heping's elder brother. Zhu Heping was a troublemaker and had a good family background. So, since Ji Ling came from a small county town, her husband must be even worse, so she could marry into the capital? Zhu Heping didn't care about that. When he came to Jiang Zheng, he said directly, "Jiang Zheng, you came to me today and said that my sister-in-law was not good and that she brought shame to our Zhu family. I have a quick temper and can't wait for anything. I will directly ask my sister-in-law to come and confront you. Let's make everything clear in front of your classmates today."
Jiang Zheng stood up suddenly, "Zhu Heping, you've come to the wrong place. As for Ji Ling's evaluation, you may not accept it, but what I said is not wrong. She has no sympathy and relies on marrying into your Zhu family to think she is superior to her classmates."
Gao Jing's face turned pale. She stood up, pulled Jiang Zheng, and looked at Ji Ling pleadingly.
Ji Ling didn't even glance at her, looking at Jiang Zheng who was full of justice, "My face was swollen from being beaten, and not forgiving him means you have no sympathy? I can't understand this. No one else would accept this accusation, right? And when have I always thought myself superior to my classmates? You can also point this out so that I can understand it clearly."
"Why are you talking nonsense to her?" Zhu Heping smiled amazingly, and with lightning speed, he raised his hand and slapped Jiang Zheng.
All this happened suddenly and caught us off guard.
Time seems to stand still at this moment.
A scream broke the silence. It was Gao Jing who made the scream. She also protected Jiang Zheng behind her and was on guard against Ji Ling and Zhu Heping as if they were robbers.
"It's all my fault. Ji Ling was implicated and beaten because of me. If you are angry, just come at me. Jiang Zheng did nothing wrong. Her mistake was that she felt sorry for me and kept wanting to help me. It was me who implicated her. Don't target her anymore. Come at me, just come at me." Gao Jing shouted at the top of her lungs, her eyes wide open and tears streaming from her eyes.
Watching this scene, Ji Ling felt that she and Zhu Heping were like bullies, burning, killing and looting.
And she was not the only one who thought so. Looking at the eyes of her classmates, they all had angry gazes on them.
Ji Ling didn't care what others thought and was too lazy to explain, but she couldn't drag Zhu Heping into it. She also took a step forward protectively and blocked Zhu Heping behind her.
"Jiang Zheng, Zhu Heping has an impulsive temper. I apologize to you on his behalf." After Ji Ling finished speaking, Jiang Zheng was still glaring at them. She said, "Look, we were both beaten. I don't forgive Gao Jing because I have no sympathy. But if it happened to you, you wouldn't forgive her either. Zhu Heping's attack was just to tell you with practical actions that you should not persuade others to be kind without experiencing their pain."
Don’t advise others to do good unless you have experienced their pain.
With just one simple sentence, everyone felt as if they were enlightened by the beauty of Luhu Lake, and some people even laughed.
Zhu Heping has a bad reputation, but what he is doing now is not wrong.
Jiang Zheng accused Ji Ling of being unsympathetic for not forgiving the person who beat her, so wouldn't it be better to let her feel it herself and prove it with facts?
Jiang Zheng didn't say anything, so Ji Ling looked at Gao Jing who was glaring at her angrily, "Gao Jing, crying doesn't mean you're right. Because of you, I was implicated and beaten, and I didn't blame you a word. Then Jiang Zheng found me and asked me to forgive you, and arrogantly accused me of not sympathizing with you. I can ignore all these, but she turned around and found me, Zhu Heping, and dragged the Zhu family into it. Even a clay man has some earthiness. I, the one who was wronged, haven't cried out in pain yet, but you bullies are standing on the highest point of reason to accuse others. Everyone can see clearly who is bullying, right?"
"Ji Ling, I have never blamed you, and Jiang Zheng is not blaming you. She just wanted to help me. I'm sorry if it makes you feel uncomfortable." Gao Jing bowed deeply.
Ji Ling dodged, "I can't bear it. I will be beaten and charged with crimes. If I accept your bow again, I'm really afraid that I will be drowned in spit tomorrow."
Jiang Zheng was beaten today, and the matter cannot be left alone like this.
Ji Ling suppressed Zhu Heping's anger and said, "You go back first. We can talk about it this afternoon if there is anything."
Zhu Heping nodded, glanced at Gao Jing and Jiang Zheng with a warning, and left.
As soon as he left, Jiang Zheng also strode away, and Gao Jing followed quickly.
By this time it was time for class, which also stopped everyone's discussions and gazes.
Miao Man and Ji Ling sat next to each other and were very excited. While the teacher was writing on the blackboard, she whispered to Ji Ling, "Zhu Heping is so cool."
Ji Ling smiled and didn't respond.
Cool? The Jiang family's precious daughter was beaten, and it depends on how the Jiang family handles it.
She originally didn't want to cause trouble, but now it seems that the more she gives in, the bigger the trouble becomes.
