Chapter 52 Scene Reenactment
Guan Xiaolin frowned slightly as she watched Zhao Weimin leave to play basketball.
"Tang Huaiyi, Zhao Weimin asked you to play basketball again?" She asked in a low voice as she walked up to Tang Huaiyi.
"Yes." Tang Huaiyi nodded.
"Is his attitude towards you bad? Is it because of me?" Guan Xiaolin asked again in a low voice.
"They didn't mention you, just said I didn't have the guts to play basketball with him."
Upon hearing this, Guan Xiaolin immediately raised her eyebrows, her chest heaving slightly: "He certainly has a big mouth!"
Although she had a hunch that Zhao Weimin was probably looking for Tang Huaiyi because she had been in a lot of contact with Tang Huaiyi lately and he wanted to test the waters, neither Zhao Weimin nor Tang Huaiyi had mentioned her name. It would be too narcissistic for Guan Xiaolin to emphasize that this matter was caused by her, so she didn't say anything more.
She was just thinking about finding a time when Zhao Weimin would stop following her home from school.
This guy has only been with me for a few days after school, and it's like he's stabbed in the heart when I talk to him a little more.
At dinner, Song Siyuan handed out jars of pickled vegetables to Tang Huaiyi and Li Xiujuan. The pickled vegetables were fresh, crisp, and delicious. He also talked about how hard it was for him to come here today. After the heavy rain, the family's horse-drawn carriage was not convenient for traveling, so he walked all the way from Songjiazhuang.
However, he didn't get wet in the rain and was wearing rain boots. Although he was sweating a lot, it was still much better than Tang Huaiyi and Li Xiujuan.
Tang Huaiyi thanked Song Siyuan's parents for bringing extra pickled vegetables. Song Siyuan chuckled and said, "No need to thank me, no need to thank me. My dad said I should just learn from you."
"Yes, I'll definitely help you with your studies when the time comes."
Tang Huaiyi said to Song Siyuan, "We're helping each other out."
"well……"
Guan Xiaolin watched curiously from the side. Seeing Tang Huaiyi praise how delicious it was, she reached out her chopsticks and picked up a strip of pickled cucumber from Tang Huaiyi's plate: "Let me try it and see if it's good..."
After it was imported, there was a crisp "crunch" sound, and Guan Xiaolin was pleasantly surprised: "It's really delicious! Song Siyuan, the pickled vegetables at your home are much better than regular salted vegetables!"
Song Siyuan immediately smiled, a hint of pride in his voice: "My mother's cooking is just the best; most people can't compare."
"Squad leader, do you want some? I'll share some with you."
Guan Xiaolin waved her hand: "No need, you guys eat first, I'm just trying a little."
Song Siyuan didn't try to persuade him any further.
After dinner, I studied in the classroom again. My clothes were still damp, but at least it wasn't too uncomfortable.
Tang Huaiyi thought to himself that this feeling was really unpleasant, and he really had to go to the county supply and marketing cooperative and tailor shop tomorrow noon to buy a new set of clothes.
When evening self-study ended, Tang Huaiyi and Li Xiujuan said goodbye to Guan Xiaolin and continued studying by the light of the lamp.
Just as I lowered my head, I heard a crisp, disdainful "humph" from the classroom doorway.
"Wang Man, what are you doing?" Guan Xiaolin looked at Wang Man curiously.
"I think you're just a coward who only dares to gossip behind people's backs!"
Wang Man slightly raised her face and glanced sideways at Tang Huaiyi in the classroom.
Tang Huaiyi looked up in confusion and saw Wang Man staring at him with an unfriendly expression, while Zhao Weimin stood behind her with a smile.
Guan Xiaolin looked slightly confused and frowned slightly.
"Who are you talking about, Wang Man?"
"I didn't say who, let's go! Xiaolin, you should be careful in the future. Some people seem pitiful on the surface, but who knows what kind of evil schemes they are plotting behind the scenes!" Wang Man said, reaching out to take Guan Xiaolin's arm and walking outside.
Guan Xiaolin, however, stopped and stood at the classroom door: "Wang Man, this classroom is full of students from Class 1, Grade 12. I'm the class monitor of Class 1, Grade 12. Who are you talking about here?"
"We're good friends, so don't keep anything from me."
Wang Man immediately said, "Xiaolin, of course I won't lie to you, I just can't stand some people who say one thing to your face and another behind your back."
Guan Xiaolin's gaze swept over Wang Man and Zhao Weimin behind her: "Wang Man, stop with the riddles. Did Zhao Weimin tell you something? Like what our classmates are like?"
Upon hearing this, both Zhao Weimin and Wang Man looked enlightened.
"Did he accuse the guilty party first?" Wang Man asked.
Guan Xiaolin frowned slightly, her ponytail swaying gently: "Where did they accuse me first? There was no accusation at all. Wang Man, don't come after our classmates just because someone said something."
"Also, Zhao Weimin, what did you say to Wang Man?"
"Me? I didn't say anything." Zhao Weimin looked completely innocent. "I just invited him to play basketball, who would have thought he would say such awful things?"
"I bet he's said a lot of bad things about me to you now, but I'm not afraid. There were five classmates playing basketball with me at the time, and they all saw who was in the wrong."
Guan Xiaolin looked at him coldly: "Tang Huaiyi didn't say anything bad about you at all. On the contrary, you said a lot of bad things about him to Wang Man, and Wang Man believed it, didn't she?"
"Xiaolin, you don't believe me at all... It wasn't just me on the basketball court before, there were other classmates too," Zhao Weimin said with a wronged expression.
Wang Man nodded in agreement: "Yes, Xiaolin, surely not so many people are lying?"
"Your classmate who talks badly about you behind your back and even insults Zhao Weimin is no good person..."
Having heard and seen that he had been mentioned, he could no longer pretend to be confused.
Tang Huaiyi stood up from the back row of the classroom and slowly walked over.
Are you talking about me?
Li Xiujuan immediately followed him, staring intently at the man and woman in front of them: These two are bad people; Tang Huaiyi is such a good person, and they dare to lie through their teeth, they are really wicked to the extreme.
"So what if I say it to you?" Wang Man said unhappily. "You have the guts to say it, but do you dare to admit it now?"
Tang Huaiyi asked, "What did I say?"
"You said Xiaolin would definitely fall for you, and that Zhao Weimin was protecting Xiaolin every day..." Wang Man glared, appearing unusually fierce to protect her best friend from being deceived by bad guys. "All six basketball players can testify to these things. Do you dare say it, or are you afraid to admit it?"
Tang Huaiyi sighed helplessly: "You guys are really something—"
He pointed at Zhao Weimin: "A despicable scoundrel, scheming and treacherous."
He then pointed at Wang Man: "She has no brains and is being used by others."
Zhao Weimin immediately broke down, exclaiming, "Who are you cursing? Xiaolin, you saw it, he cursed at me! He's just that kind of morally bankrupt person!"
Wang Man was furious: "You're the one who's brainless! Who are you calling brainless?"
Tang Huaiyi chuckled and looked at Guan Xiaolin: "Since they've said that, I'll repeat it again. See how funny it is... Guan Xiaolin, you... you're definitely going to be captured by me... there's no escaping it!"
Seeing him talking nonsense with such a straight face, and with such an amusing tone, Guan Xiaolin burst out laughing and slapped his arm: "Are you stupid? You just repeat what they say?"
"Isn't this fun? If we miss today, we won't be able to learn anything anyway, so we might as well make a joke."
"Anything else?" Tang Huaiyi asked Zhao Weimin and Wang Man. "Tell me what else I said, and I'll reenact the scenes for you one by one, so you can see how funny it is."
