A group of men silently listened until the leader called Yu Qingyun to ask how to handle this matter.

Then this scene unfolded this morning.

Song Yu could even feel the disdainful and contemptuous gazes gathering on her. She saw people she knew and didn’t know pointing at her, filled with shame and anger.

Now, the entire school knew that she, Song Yu, was a shameless, malicious girl who framed others.

Her tears didn’t stop from the moment she arrived here before dawn.

Her normally stern father, upon understanding the situation, slapped her hard on the spot.

"Everything I’ve taught you all these years, was it all fed to the dogs?"

Song Yu recalled what her father said in the car before coming to school this morning.

"Song Yu, no matter how unwilling or embarrassed you feel, you must go this time." Her father’s face was weary, clearly having not rested well the whole night.

"First, you did do something wrong to others, and making mistakes requires an apology and paying the price, which is only right and proper."

Her father’s face was cold as he continued, "Second, we can’t afford to provoke either the Yu Family or the Mo Family. Especially the Yu Family, Song Yu, if you don’t want any ’accidents’ on your way to school tomorrow, you better go today!"

Song Yu listened as her father laid out the cruel facts.

She remembered those expressionless men dressed in black, the guns in their hands.

She never thought that the always smiling, friendly Yu Qingyue in her class had such a powerful background?

If only she had known earlier, if only she had known earlier, she would never have dared to do such a thing!

Song Yu thought in a daze, and then she saw that familiar figure in the crowd.

Mo Beiye.

Obviously, he also saw her.

Song Yu immediately lowered her head.

She didn’t dare to face Mo Beiye.

This was the first boy she had ever had feelings for. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

He embodied all her dreams and fantasies about love.

If possible, Song Yu hoped that even if everyone saw her despicable and dark side, in this boy’s eyes, she would still be a normal, ordinary, pure-hearted girl.

At this moment, she had completely forgotten that if her previous actions hadn’t been uncovered, this boy she liked would have had to endure great criticism because of her.

Gu Shengyin looked at the girl standing at the school’s entrance, listening to her mechanically repeating her apologies, and instantly understood what Yu Qingyun’s "Don’t worry, I’ll solve this problem" meant.

She had no intention of stepping forward to say anything.

In such situations, kicking someone when they’re down would seem unrefined, and forgiving them magnanimously?

Gu Shengyin thought: Sorry, I’m not a saint.

If I magnanimously forgive those who hurt me, then who will sympathize with those who stood up for me?

So she merely glanced at Song Yu and walked into the classroom without looking sideways.

Only after she walked away did Song Yu lift her head.

She looked in the direction the other had left, only able to see a tall, slender back.

Gu Shengyin could manage not to forgive or hold a grudge, but Yu Qingyue couldn’t.

Especially since, when Yu Qingyue thought about how this had cost her her allowance and freedom, she was filled with resentment towards Song Yu, the instigator.
