Liu Ru walked to her side and bent down to pick up the book. Her face was filled with self-blame. “I’m sorry. It’s all because of me that I’ve implicated you.”
“I know that Xu Wanwan is angry with us, but I didn’t think that she would do something like this to get back at us.”
“But it’s already happened… Let’s forget it.”
After she finished speaking, someone beside her immediately chimed in, “Class monitor, you’re too kind. Didn’t Xu Wanwan do that thing to you because she wasn’t elected?”
“That’s right. Class monitor’s desk was also pushed down to the ground by her, making a mess everywhere.”
“Li Xuyi, don’t let Xu Wanwan off. Otherwise, she’ll definitely be even more arrogant in the future. Our class monitor is kind-hearted and doesn’t want to make a big deal out of this, but Xu Wanwan doesn’t deserve to be forgiven.”
Li Xuyi heard what everyone said, and a strong sense of disgust appeared in his eyes. He looked up at Xu Wanwan who was coming over, and his expression was cold and terrible.
A cold light flashed in Liu Ru’s eyes, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly.
Lin Jianan felt that everyone’s eyes were a little strange. She could not help but ask, “What’s going on today? Why isn’t anyone saying anything?”
Xu Wanwan frowned in confusion, and when she looked up, she met Li Xuyi’s cold gaze.
Not knowing why, she brushed past him.
Li Xuyi clenched his fists tightly. “Xu Wanwan, stop.”
Xu Wanwan stopped and turned to look at him. “What’s up?”
“Taking revenge on me?” Li Xuyi took a step forward and raised his hand to grab her chin with great force. “Is this your so-called glorious method?”
The boy’s grip was so strong that her eyes started tearing up from the pain. She grabbed his arms with both hands and pulled them away. “What… What are you talking about?”
Li Xuyi snorted and pointed at the messy books on the ground. “Stop pretending. Didn’t you do all this?”
“I didn’t touch your desk.” Xu Wanwan immediately shook her head.
She didn’t explain much, but Li Xuyi couldn’t help but shake.
It was because her eyes looked so sincere and clear that it was hard to believe that she would lie.
Liu Ru saw that the situation was not looking good and said softly, “Wanwan’s actions are understandable. She should be feeling very upset that she was not selected for the class monitor position. We should forgive her…”
When Li Xuyi heard this, his wavering heart instantly became firm. He stared at Xu Wanwan deeply, as if he wanted to see through her completely.
“Ha, you’re still trying to quibble. Aren’t you just unconvinced about yesterday’s matter?”
“Because you felt robbed of the class monitor position, you’re being a sore loser. First, you pushed her, and now you’re here to take revenge on us. Don’t you have any sense of shame?”
“I told you that I didn’t push her! You guys clearly saw the surveillance footage yesterday and went to the hospital for a check-up. She wasn’t injured either.” Xu Wanwan was feeling slightly agitated.
Liu Ru said sarcastically, “What happened yesterday might have been a misunderstanding, but I thought that it would be fine once this incident was over. I didn’t expect you to take revenge on us today.”
“I was the one who put away the homework on the table, and you tore it all up. What should we do when the teacher comes to check later?”
Lin Jianan couldn’t stand it anymore and rushed forward to stand in front of Xu Wanwan. “What nonsense are you talking about here? Wanwan has been studying with me in the study room just now. Where did she find the time to destroy your stuff?”
After saying that, she glared at Li Xuyi and said unhappily, “And you, are you a parasite on someone else’s body? You just listen to whatever Liu Ru says. We’ve been explaining for a while, but you just pretend to not understand.”
Li Xuyi clenched his fists. “Say that again!”
“It’s the same even if we say it a thousand times!” Lin Jianan stared straight at him and said calmly, “We have a point, so we’re not afraid of you framing us.”
“I’m warning you so move out of the way. Do what you should do, and don’t pester Wanwan all day.”
Lin Jianan spoke up for Xu Wanwan and pulled her to leave.
Liu Ru suddenly reached out and blocked their way. “You can’t leave yet. You have to go with me to see the teacher.”
“Why should I listen to you?” Lin Jianan rolled her eyes.
“I can forgive Xu Wanwan, but our classmates can’t. She destroyed their homeworks. If the teacher wants to punish her, someone has to take responsibility.”
Xu Wanwan looked at Liu Ru coldly. “Have you forgotten what happened yesterday? Are you trying to make a big deal out of it today? Are you trying to embarrass yourself again?”
Liu Ru was so angry that her face changed. “You!”
When she mentioned what happened yesterday, she got angry. She thought that the Xu family would come to apologize to her personally. Who would have thought that someone she did not know would come and take away Xu Wanwan successfully.
However, she would not let Xu Wanwan leave so easily today.
She laughed disdainfully. “Xu Wanwan, I have already reported this matter to the teacher. I also helped the teacher inform your parents.”
“Tell me, when your father sees you doing such a thing in school, how will he teach you a lesson?”
Xu Wanwan’s eyes turned cold. “Who allowed you to contact the Xu family on my behalf?”
She thought she could completely get rid of the Xu family by studying hard in school. However, because of Liu Ru, she had to get in touch with the Xu family again.
Liu Ru said matter-of-factly, “You have to ask yourself that. Who asked you to be so heartless that you don’t even want the Xu family who raised you?”
“You’re being kept by an old man outside. Do you really think you can call the shots in school?”
Xu Wanwan became more emotional. She clenched her small hands tightly and said through gritted teeth, “Who are you calling an old man?”
“Don’t you know? Don’t tell me you have feelings for a few rich men and you still want to defend them?”
“The reason why you can be so arrogant at school is because you have more than one man supporting you, right?. Others treat you as a plaything, but you’re treating them as a treasure. What a joke.”
Xu Wanwan felt her emotions fluctuate as the hatred from her past and present life suddenly surged forth into her heart. She could no longer control herself as she raised her hand and gave Liu Ru a slap.
She seemed to have changed into a different person, and her tone became fierce. “Say anything about me, but you have no right to talk about my benefactor.”
Li Jingran had brought her back to the Li family and helped her in every aspect of her life, so he had always been like a benefactor.
In Xu Wanwan’s heart, no one could slander Li Jingran.
Liu Ru’s face instantly became red and swollen, her face full of disbelief as she covered her face tightly. “Xu Wanwan, you actually dared to hit someone?”
She staggered a few steps back and fell on Li Xuyi’s body, crying like a pear blossom in the rain.
Xu Wanwan couldn’t be bothered with her. She turned around and was about to leave.
Li Xuyi frowned and took a step forward. He grabbed Xu Wanwan’s arm and brought her to Liu Ru. “Apologize to her.”
“I didn’t do anything wrong!” Xu Wanwan’s emotions were ignited again, and her voice was firm.
“I’ll ask you again. Are you going to apologize to her or not?”
“Why is it certain that I must apologize?”
