Fang Siyan saw the resentful little expression on Ding Ruola's face. With just a little thought, he knew what this girl was thinking.
"Old Fang!"
He heard the girl call him by his nickname. He slightly turned his body and faced Ding Ruola.
"Tell me honestly. Do you really not remember Gu Qianxue?"
Fang Siyan frowned, then quickly regained his usual calm, as if nothing had happened.
Ding Ruola was preoccupied with the matter of Gu Qianxue and naturally didn't notice the subtle change in Fang Siyan's expression.
"I've long forgotten about her."
Fang Siyan's firm answer satisfied Ding Ruola.
Naturally, the two didn't continue this topic.
Ding Ruola was somewhat tactful in this regard. Talking too much would only make the man dislike her.
Being like a complaining woman at such a young age with too much of a mental burden was not good at all!
The next day, Ding Ruola was still in class when she was surprised to notice that Su Man's seat was empty.
Was Su Man crazy? She still had a disciplinary record on her. How could she blatantly skip class like this?
The current class monitor was well - known for being a tattle - tale, and no one knew what the instructor had said to a few girls in the class. They were constantly keeping an eye on Su Man.
Ding Ruola always felt uncomfortable. She looked around the class and found that Shu Nian was also absent.
There was an indescribable sense of unease when these two were together.
Just as Ding Ruola was thinking that Su Man better not get into any trouble, her phone started to vibrate. It was an unknown number!
Ding Ruola gave an embarrassed smile to the teacher on the podium, then picked up her phone and walked out.
"I'm in Swallowtail Alley. Come and save me quickly."
The voice sounded like Su Man's. It showed how deep their bond was that Su Man called her first when in danger.
This kind of treatment made Ding Ruola a bit unaccustomed.
With her wits about her, she definitely wouldn't go alone to the place Su Man told her about.
She first called the police and then took a taxi to Swallowtail Alley.
By the time she got there, the two of them had already been rescued by the police.
Shu Nian was also there, and Ding Ruola gave a statement as well.
It was just a matter of running into a few hooligans. By the time the police arrived, those hooligans who could escape had already fled.
When the three of them left the police station, Shu Nian gave Ding Ruola a cold look.
"Why did you come?"
Ding Ruola glanced at Su Man. This girl didn't seem to want to say anything.
"Someone told me you were in danger, so I rushed over."
It was also strange. It was class time. What were they doing there?
"Aren't you guys going to class?"
Su Man gave Ding Ruola a look, indicating that she shouldn't continue talking.
The three of them parted ways at the bus stop.
At the bus stop, Ding Ruola told Su Man that Mei Xuejian was looking for her.
With this reason, Shu Nian naturally felt embarrassed to follow. So she went back to school alone.
"I didn't expect you to really come!"
Su Man opened her phone contacts. The first number she saw was Ding Ruola's.
She had exported the phone number from Mei Xuejian's phone during the Chinese New Year.
Maybe she was just having bad luck at that time. Ding Ruola called, and she felt like she had been caught doing something wrong. She was still stubborn and even wanted to show off to Ding Ruola.
At that time, she saved Ding Ruola's phone number. She didn't expect it to come in handy today.
In times of danger, Su Man had never felt so helpless. None of her "friends" at school were reliable. The only person who could help her was actually her sworn enemy.
It was really a joke!
The two didn't go straight home. They first walked around in the pavilion at the bus stop for a while, then casually found a restaurant. They weren't there to eat, but just to find a place to shelter from the wind.
"Do you think today's incident was just a coincidence?"
Ding Ruola poured a cup of tea and pushed it in front of Su Man.
The tea wasn't good. It was "coarse tea scraps"!
There was just a bit of flavor in the water. It tasted bitter and astringent in the mouth, with no fragrance at all.
But it was normal for such an ordinary small shop to serve this kind of tea.
Su Man looked at the color of the water in the teacup. She had no desire to drink it at all.
"Boss, do you have hot water?"
The boss naturally wouldn't neglect a customer who didn't want to drink tea. With a smile on his face, he brought out a pot of plain water.
There was a cup of plain water with an ink smell and a cup of astringent tea.
Su Man didn't want to drink either of them.
Ding Ruola could see the disgust in the eyes of the young lady in front of her towards these ordinary things. Naturally, she wouldn't scold Su Man for not understanding the hardships of life.
Finally, Su Man was so thirsty that she asked for a bottle of mineral water herself.
"I don't know!"
Su Man was straightforwardly bad. She couldn't come up with any scheming.
If she hated someone, she would show it. She would never be nice on the surface and then try to harm others secretly.
"You'd better be more careful about the people around you."
Ding Ruola still didn't make it completely clear, but actually, it was clear enough.
Right now, the only person standing beside Su Man was Shu Nian.
"I got it!"
Su Man wasn't really as bad as she seemed.
Every one of her actions still had a childish air about it.
Because of this incident, the relationship between the two of them took a qualitative leap.
It was common to see the two of them together at school.
People who didn't know them well thought that the two had been good sisters from the start.
"Xuejian is coming to school today!"
Su Man now had no special feelings towards the name Mei Xuejian.
She now understood why Mei Xuejian was willing to be friends with Ding Ruola.
This girl had an indescribable charm. She was excellent but also amiable. It was comfortable and stress - free to get along with her. Maybe this was the feeling of friendship.
During lunch, Mei Xuejian saw Su Man beside Ding Ruola.
At first, the man thought that Su Man was forcing Ding Ruola, but looking at the situation between the two, it didn't seem to be the case.
When the three of them were talking, there was nothing strange about the atmosphere at the dinner table.
What surprised Mei Xuejian the most was that the entire Su family couldn't correct Su Man's arrogant temper, but she had changed so much with Ding Ruola.
"Manman, you seem to have changed a lot!"
Su Man was taken aback for a moment. "You don't need to tell me that!"
With this tone and the girl's little roll of the eyes, Mei Xuejian kind of wanted to take back what he had just said.
She just hid her arrogance from Ding Ruola.
Moreover, this feisty way of retorting didn't seem to show any feelings for Mei Xuejian.
As a result, Shu Nian became an outsider. Basically, no one talked to her.
She had chosen the wrong side at the beginning and now she had fallen behind.
It seemed that everyone in the Yazhi class was isolating Shu Nian.
In such an atmosphere, Shu Nian naturally had some bad thoughts.
She wouldn't commit suicide. She was such a selfish person. How could she harm herself?
