Deng Lili reacted and quickly walked up to Jiang Ruonan, saying in a rather aggressive tone: "Jiang Ruonan, have you seen Lanlan's pearl hairpin? It's a very expensive one."

She emphasized her tone deliberately, as if she was afraid that someone didn't know the price.

Jiang Ruonan lowered her eyes, and there was no expression on her cold and pretty face. She understood the situation, so she said, "Teacher Zhao came back just now, and she took the pearl hairpin back with her."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.

Is it because Mr. Zhao is on a business trip? They are probably almost in the next city now. Jiang Ruonan might be talking nonsense because she is not in a clear mind.

Deng Lili snorted as if she had heard something funny, sneering: "Jiang Ruonan, Teacher Zhao is not even in school, stop lying! Did you take the pearl hairpin?"

The endless entanglement made the quiet-loving Jiang Ruonan feel noisy. She suddenly raised her eyes, her deep black pupils filled with impatience, and spoke again: "I said, Teacher Zhao took it away."

"Oh, you lied!"

The person involved, Chen Zhilan, was confused and looked at Jiang Ruonan with a conflicted look. It was not that she did not believe her words, but her mother was indeed on a business trip, so how could she come back?

The two kinds of judgments are constantly entangled in the brain, and the balance is unknowingly tilted.

She began to doubt Jiang Ruonan.

She said to Jiang Ruonan with grievance and sadness: "Student Jiang, if you see my hairpin, please give it back to me."

This is a disguised way of convicting Jiang Ruonan.

Another unconscious one?

Jiang Ruonan curled her lips in disdain, "Chen Zhilan, I'm telling you this for the last time. Teacher Zhao took your pearl hairpin. If you don't believe me, go home and ask."

After that, she no longer wanted to talk to these people, so she took her book and walked out of the classroom.

When Chen Zhilan met Jiang Ruonan's eyes, which were quiet and indifferent, she felt inexplicably frightened.

Deng Lili didn't want to give up, so she shouted towards the door: "Jiang Ruonan, do you dare to let someone search your schoolbag to prove your innocence?"

Jiang Ruonan paused for a moment, then turned back in an instant, her eyes sharp and fierce, her lips moved slightly: "I don't need it, don't touch my things, you will bear the consequences at your own risk."

……

They were only sixteen years old and naive, and could not compare to Jiang Ruonan's deep maturity. Moreover, children from poor families had to grow up early, so many people in the classroom were frightened by Jiang Ruonan's words.

Deng Lili also clenched her hands. She looked at her good friend Chen Zhilan, "Lanlan, I think Jiang Ruonan stole your pearl hairpin!"

Chen Zhilan has always been kind-hearted. She actually couldn't say it out loud, but she was really anxious just now.

She frowned hesitantly, "Lili, could it really be that this has nothing to do with Jiang Ruonan? Did we misunderstand her?"

Deng Lili was filled with righteous indignation. "But she was the only one in the classroom. She didn't go to the physical education class, and she was on duty today! Who else could it be but her?"

She really didn't believe that the real Jiang Ruonan would be like she usually appeared to be, as if she didn't care about anything and didn't take anything seriously.

"I'm going to search her bag!"

"But...but, this isn't good, right? We can't do this."

"It's okay, Lanlan, don't be afraid. We are just looking for our own things in a reasonable and legitimate way. What's the problem?"

Unable to resist Deng Lili's persuasion, Chen Zhilan hesitated but still allowed Deng Lili to rummage through Jiang Ruonan's schoolbag, because she also wanted to know, even though she knew it was wrong.

……

Jiang Ruonan, who had just returned from reading, noticed something was wrong. Her schoolbag had been moved, and the zipper that had been sewn was torn. She immediately understood.

Calmly asked directly: "Who moved my things?"

No one answered her.

He immediately turned his gaze to Chen Zhi, "Is it you?" Then he looked at Deng Lili, "Or you?"

Deng Lili stiffened her neck, not looking as if she had done anything wrong, and said confidently, "I searched, so what?"

She kept trying to make excuses for herself: "You were the only one in the classroom at the time, so you were the most suspicious. Did you really hide Lanlan's hairpin in your bag if you didn't allow me to search it?"

Deng Lili suddenly had an idea and continued to justify herself: "Besides, just because we didn't find it just now doesn't mean you didn't take it. What if you hid it somewhere else?"

Jiang Ruonan's voice was filled with anger: "I said, Teacher Zhao took it away."

Deng Lili shouted at the top of her voice: "Who would believe it? Everyone knows that you, Jiang Ruonan, are in dire need of money? Your parents don't give you any money at all. The last time your dad came to school..."

At this time, Chen Zhilan seemed to know what she was going to say, and grabbed Deng Lili's arm in time, "Lili!" She signaled her with her eyes to stop talking.

The other people in the classroom recalled an unforgettable scene from junior high school.

……

Jiang Ruonan, who was taking a nap at the time, was dragged out of the classroom by her father Jiang Jian. She was thrown heavily to the concrete floor without any defense, and then she was punched and kicked by her father. Every move was violent and bloody, and she had no strength to resist at all.

Jiang Jian cursed a lot but showed no mercy to his men.

Everyone at the scene was so shocked that they couldn't recover. Some timid people were almost frightened to death.

After a while, Jiang Ruonan's clothes were torn, her mouth was cracked, and her head was bleeding. She lay in a small pool of blood, bleeding and unconscious, and was dying.

The situation was not stopped until the police and security arrived.

This farce made people start to distance themselves from Jiang Ruonan, fearing that they would offend her terrible father.

……

"I'm going to tell it!" Deng Lili was completely overwhelmed and she pulled Chen Zhilan's hand away.

Sometimes, the jealousy of little girls and boys is not complicated. It does not require deep hatred, perhaps it only needs a small outbreak point.

Deng Lili is jealous of Jiang Ruonan.

Her family background is indeed better than Jiang Ruonan's, and she feels superior in some aspects. Therefore, she can usually talk about Jiang Ruonan's affairs as if it has nothing to do with her, and she will show disdain on her face from time to time.

But she was at a disadvantage in academics, and she was not qualified and could not say a word.

Her parents are also teachers, and they are extremely strict with her, especially her grades. This time she failed the test, but Jiang Ruonan did not. She had excellent grades, and they became a foil again, which magnified the original imbalance in her heart.

People who are temporarily in a high position cannot bear to see the people they make fun of or entertain are more successful than themselves.

The loss of Chen Zhilan's pearl hairpin happened to become her outlet for venting. She thought she had caught Jiang Ruonan's handle. She believed that Jiang Ruonan's motive for making mistakes was that he was gifted but poor.

Only the poor steal things.

Smart and condescending.

……

When the past was suddenly brought up, Jiang Ruonan's eyes became frighteningly cold, sinister and fierce, her lips were pursed into a straight line, and a closer look revealed that the corners of her mouth were trembling slightly, and her hands hidden under her sleeves were clenched into fists.

This was a moment that was so humiliating that she wanted to erase it, and a moment when she almost gave up her life again. Even though she forced herself to forget this memory and told herself that it was nothing, the fact was that it really existed and was deeply imprinted in her mind.

Looking at the aggressive Deng Lili, Jiang Ruonan knew that her sanity was no longer there.

She walked towards Deng Lili step by step, like a ghost demanding her life, with a blank expression on her face, but her eyes were filled with hatred and anger.

Deng Lili suddenly woke up, or rather, she was scared. She grabbed Chen Zhilan's hand and her body was shaking.

"You...what are you going to do?"
