“Don’t say that. People will say that you don’t respect your elders.” Tan Rou said to Li Li.
“If I had such an embarrassing elder, I would be too embarrassed to even leave the house,” Li Li said indifferently.
Tan Jing glared fiercely at Tan Rou and Li Li. Initially, Li Li was not Tan Ron’s friend. At the same time, she did not have such hostility towards Tan Jing. Ever since this semester, Li Li seemed to have changed into a different person. She went against Tan Jing in every way. Tan Jing felt that Tan Rou must have said something bad about her to Li Li.
It wasn’t just Li Li. Many students in the class had been bewitched by Tan Rou. They stood on her side and spoke up for her.
Zhao Ru couldn’t argue with them, so she could only stand aside and express her dissatisfaction with her eyes. She had originally wanted to protect Tan Jing, but she did not expect to get herself into trouble. How could she afford to repay this money on behalf of the Tan family? Even if she sold her body, it wouldn’t be enough to pay off this sum of money.
Wei Ling was watching the entire fiasco from the side. Seeing that Tan Jing and the others could no longer pretend to gain sympathy from others, she wished she could order a drink now to celebrate and watch them embarrass themselves.
Zhao Ru noticed Wei Ling who was laughing in the crowd. She was very angry. She pointed at Wei Ling and scolded, “Wei Ling, why didn’t you speak up for us? Jingjing is suffering now. As her good friend, aren’t you going to say anything?”
…..
After being called out, Wei Ling’s expression instantly turned ugly. It was clearly these three who wanted to make things difficult for themselves. How could they shift the conflict to her?
Tan Jing was also waiting for Wei Ling to defend her.
Wei Ling had no choice but to say, “But what Tan Rou said is the truth. I also want to protect Jingjing, but I can’t afford the 30 million. I also can’t get rid of the bad reviews on Jingjing’s family on the Internet. Zhao Ru, if you have a way to help Jingjing, you have to tell me about it. I will do my best to help you.”
Zhao Ru was furious. She let go of Tan Jing and ran to Wei Ling angrily. “Wei Ling, what do you mean? Do you think Jingjing should apologize to Tan Rou?”
Wei Ling said innocently, “I don’t know anything. I’m just a high school student. It’s not up to us whether we should apologize to Tan Rou or not. If you ask me, Jingjing, you should apologize to Tan Rou quickly.”
Zhao Ru was furious. “What makes you think Jingjing should apologize to Tan Rou? She doesn’t know what her parents did!”
“Why are you shouting at me?” Wei Ling didn’t want to spoil her. She shouted, “I’m just giving a suggestion that I think is reasonable. If you think it’s unreasonable, then don’t listen to it. Why are you shouting at me?!”
Zhao Ru was angry at her, “Wei Ling, are you not on our side anymore? Why aren’t you speaking up for us now?”
Wei Ling suddenly sniffed. “You’re saying that I’m not on the same side as you? I just think that you guys don’t want to play with me. Usually, the three of you will be whispering things to each other. Once I get close, you will immediately end the conversation. Plus, you guys hate me because I was almost expelled, right? After all, who could accept a friend who had made a big mistake?”
“I was punished for it, but you guys weren’t!”
He Ling saw that they were quarreling and quickly came over to stop them. “Wei Ling, we don’t mean to despise you. It’s just that sometimes …“
“What’s wrong? You can’t say it?” Wei Ling sobbed and wiped her face. “You guys just despise me. To think that I treated you guys as good friends and came to look for you as soon as I came back. I thought that you would accept me as a dear friend, but in the end, you guys became the people who hate me the most! What did I do wrong?” When she said the last sentence, she looked at Tan Jing.
Tan Jing knew the whole process of Wei Ling’s incident. She was worried that Wei Ling would spill the beans in a fit of anger, so she quickly came over to comfort Wei Ling. “Wei Ling, we didn’t mean it that way, and we didn’t despise you. We’ve always been good friends. Don’t think too much about it. Don’t hurt our friendship because of another person’s matter.”
Wei Ling knew that Tan Jing didn’t dare to fall out with her. After all, the rest of them didn’t know much about the cheating scandal, but she, the party involved, knew it clearly. Once it was exposed, Tan Jing would definitely be punished.. Tan Jing cared about her reputation the most, so how could she allow herself to be tainted?
