Class One was silent. Dozens of eyes looked in amazent at Gu Yin who covered her face as she sat at her seat.
There was a tear at the corner of her mouth and so traces of blood. It was obvious how forceful Ruan Qingqing’s strike had been.
Ruan Qingqing pointed at Gu Yin, gritting her teeth. “Gu Yin, you owe this!”
After giving Gu Yin a hard slap, Ruan Qingqing left Class One with a cold expression.
“Yinyin, are you okay?” The boy behind Gu Yin imdiately took out and passed a piece of tissue paper to Gu Yin, looking worried.
Gu Yin shook her head, her eyes wet and red as she said in a small voice, “I’m okay.”
With that said, she suddenly stood up and ran out crying.
Class One spiraled into confusion.
“What happened? Why did Ruan Qingqing hit Gu Yin?”
“I don’t know. She took all of her belongings. Is she dropping out of school? Damn. I was wondering why Gu Mang wasn’t expelled. And now Ruan Qingqing is gone.”
“Wait a second. The powerpoint must have been switched out by soone at the parent-teacher eting, could it be...”
The group of students exchanged glances.
“Could it be Qingqing who changed the powerpoint slides?”
“I suddenly rembered sothing. Ruan Qingqing likes Lu Yang. Lu Yang treats Gu Mang really well. Could that be her reason?”
“But why did she have to hit Gu Yin? And she even did it in the classroom. That is going too far...”
...
The hallway was very quiet. No one was outside.
Gu Yin left the classroom. The pitiful expression was instantly replaced with a cold, gloomy one as she went downstairs in long strides. Turning the corner at the second floor, she caught up with Ruan Qingqing, grabbed her arm, pulled her back, and slapped her.
Ruan Qingqing was unprepared. The slap sent her into the wall. Bam! It made her dizzy for a few seconds.
After recovering from it, her face was ashen. “Gu Yin!”
She rushed towards Gu Yin with a grave expression.
Gu Yin imdiately took a large step back, stood on the stair steps, holding the railing, her chin held high proudly as she looked down at her. “Ruan Qingqing, you had better not do anything. You don’t want to cause trouble for your parents, do you?”
Ruan Qingqing imdiately froze.
Gu Yin smiled arrogantly. “Your family has given you up, which ans that they can’t afford to anger my uncle. If news of you beating gets out, what do you think your family will do to you?”
Ruan Qingqing drove her nails into her palms and glared at her. “If not for you, how could I be expelled!”
“What does this have to do with ?” Half of Gu Yin’s face was red. There was a tear at the corner of her mouth. She had a harmless, gentle expression on her face. “I only said that my sister has so bad records and that the Lus might not like my sister. You are the one responsible for everything.”
Ruan Qingqing breathed heavily. She glared fiercely, wishing she could peel a layer of her skin off to vent her anger.
Gu Yin smiled. “Seeing how pitiful you are today, let’s call it even after these slaps.”
With that said, she turned and walked upstairs. Ruan Qingqing fixed her gaze on Gu Yin’s vulnerable back when a thought suddenly occurred to her. Her lips turned up in a vicious smirk before she turned and left.
...
Gu Yin went to the washroom to rinse her mouth and adjust her expressions before returning to the classroom.
Seeing Gu Yin’s hair wet on her forehead, the boys who liked Gu Yin thought that she had been crying and looked sorry for her. They all ca to comfort Gu Yin and cursed Ruan Qingqing for her crazy behavior. Gu Yin forced smiles, tugging at the wound at the corner of her lips.
As tears welled in her eyes, she said softly, “It’s okay. Actually, I’m partly responsible for Ruan Qingqing’s expulsion. She asked before if it was true that my sister was expelled for fighting. There was no way I could lie about it. And the form teacher also ntioned it before, so I told her that it was true. I never expected that she would investigate my sister and dig everything up.”
