She retrieved her luggage and glanced in the direction of Lin Xinglan; hesitating for a mont, she still walked over...
The words spoken by Shen Lingxi and Lin Xinglan echoed in her ears; even if Lin Xinglan shouldered her luggage and left her behind or did sothing else, she would not be surprised at all.
Isn’t that just the way people are? When faced with gains and losses, sentint doesn’t seem that important, even for the most naive and innocent.
Besides, she and Lin Xinglan couldn’t exactly say they had a deep friendship.
"Xiao Hua?"
Following Lin Xinglan’s tentative call, the flashlight beam swept over first, revealing the girl crouched in the sa spot, not having moved an inch. She clung tightly to her backpack, her slender body curled up there, eliciting a trace of pity.
"Let’s go."
Song Lili said to her.
Lin Xinglan quickly stood up, moved closer to Song Lili, and seeing that she also had her luggage on her, her eyes lit up, asking excitedly,
"Did you get it back? How did you manage that?"
"It doesn’t matter how I got it; what matters is that we have our luggage back now, but there are people who are still unwilling to let it go. We need to keep moving, find a secure place to spend the night."
Song Lili explained.
Lin Xinglan thought about it and agreed; if they were unwilling, then Shen Lingxi and Su Ru surely wouldn’t sit by either!
"Right, did you hear the gunfire? I was terrified. The sound ca from your direction. It wasn’t Luo Shengnan and the others shooting at you, was it?"
"No."
"That’s good."
"Although the selection inevitably ans so get through and so are eliminated, I feel that no matter what, we are all classmates; there’s no need to point guns at each other, that sort of scene..."
Lin Xinglan followed behind Song Lili, muttering to herself.
But this muttering... Song Lili suddenly couldn’t bear to listen anymore,
"Classmates... What are classmates?"
"Huh?"
Song Lili suddenly stopped in her tracks, catching Lin Xinglan off guard with her question.
"Just because we took the entrance exam together, just because we were assigned to the sa class, does that make us classmates? Lin Xinglan, don’t forget how these so-called classmates ridiculed you when Mayor Lin was suspended. Also, don’t forget who took advantage of the situation to steal our luggage."
"Xiao Hua..."
"Lin Xinglan, in this world, no sentint is trustworthy. The only thing you can trust is your own strength. Between gains and losses, even relatives and lovers need to be cautiously weighed—let alone any friendship or classmate sentint."
"The majority of people are egoists. To achieve their ends, they might resort to any ans, betray their vows, even extinguish their humanity! So, stop talking about the ridiculous notion of classmate friendship. When you show goodwill, others see weakness."
It must have been the cold of the night... It must have been the solemnity of the woods...
Thus, the chill in Song Lili’s words seed to seep into the bones.
Lin Xinglan blinked, staring intently at Song Lili,
"But... I really trust you."
"..." Song Lili stiffened for a mont.
"I really trust you, Tang Xiaohua."
"Don’t trust . I’m saying this for your own good." Song Lili was serious.
But Lin Xinglan, as if she hadn’t heard at all, walked on, saying as she went, "I don’t know what has happened to you, to make you think so negatively. Although my personality is poor, loud, and pampered... I’m not the kind of person you describe, and I don’t believe you are either."
Song Lili walked behind Lin Xinglan... Looking at this tiny girl.
"If soday, I change, beco the kind of person you talk about, remind . The sa goes for you; if you ever change, I’ll firmly remind you!"
"..."
"Tang Xiaohua, is that okay?"
