Chapter 76 is what I wrote.
Under Guan Xiaolin's enthusiastic questioning, Tang Huaiyi simply told her the details.
Just after evening self-study tonight, someone asked Tang Huaiyi to meet under the horizontal bar at school.
"So you'll definitely go, right?"
"Of course I'm not going," Tang Huaiyi said. "Without a name or identity, who knows what they want? I'm not going."
"Oh dear, what if there's an innocent female classmate waiting to see you here? Wouldn't you be letting her down?" Guan Xiaolin said with a regretful expression, as if Tang Huaiyi's absence would create a huge regret in their love story.
Seeing her concern, Tang Huaiyi said, "If you're willing, then you can go. While you're at it, help me see what they're really up to."
"I'm too lazy to try and guess what these 'nameless nobodys' are thinking."
"I'll go, I'll go..." Guan Xiaolin said with a smile, "But if there really is a girl waiting for you then, I won't say anything good about it for you."
"There's no need to say anything. I don't want to talk about relationships right now. I just want to study for my college entrance exam."
Hearing Tang Huaiyi say this, Guan Xiaolin felt even more regretful.
I always felt that he was trampling on a beautiful heart that yearned for beautiful feelings.
As they were talking, evening self-study class started shortly afterward.
As night deepened and evening self-study ended, Guan Xiaolin called out to Tang Huaiyi again, "Why don't you go check on them too? If someone is waiting for you, aren't you going to say a word to them?"
"No need, I won't go," Tang Huaiyi said.
Guan Xiaolin was about to say something more when a voice came from the side: "He's not going."
Guan Xiaolin looked at Li Xiujuan in surprise, and then it suddenly dawned on her: That's right, I ordered randomly and almost forgot about their relationship of coming and going together - they are a couple!
I felt even more excited. Are there really such romantic entanglements in school? It's just like something out of a novel, TV show, or movie.
Li Xiujuan mustered her courage and said three words, her face burning hot, the heat instantly reaching the roots of her ears.
She didn't dare to look up at Tang Huaiyi and Guan Xiaolin. Right next to Tang Huaiyi, she was too embarrassed to speak.
"Okay, then you don't need to go. I'll go check it out for you."
As Guan Xiaolin was speaking, she saw Wang Man arrive at the classroom door and quickly walked over.
Wang Man was looking around the classroom when Guan Xiaolin pulled her up and headed towards the horizontal bar on campus.
Wang Man asked curiously, "Xiaolin, where are you going?"
"Come with me, let's go take a look..."
"What are you looking at?" Wang Man asked, puzzled.
"Something a little romantic happened, someone wrote a love letter to Tang Huaiyi..." Guan Xiaolin said, leading Wang Man to the horizontal bar, looking around, "Huh, isn't he here yet? Let's wait a little longer."
After understanding, Wang Man was both amused and exasperated: "Xiaolin, why are you here? Where's Tang Huaiyi?"
"He said that if the person who wrote the letter didn't even write their name, it must be something bad, so he didn't come," Guan Xiaolin said, glancing around as she spoke.
"This guy is really cunning!"
Wang Man said angrily, "Xiaolin, don't wait anymore, let's go."
"How can I leave? If someone really is looking for Tang Huaiyi, I have to help them check carefully..." Guan Xiaolin said.
"No one will be looking for him!" Wang Man said. "I wrote this letter!"
"what?"
Guan Xiaolin was taken aback: "Wang Man, you like Tang Huaiyi? I didn't see that coming at all!"
"Who likes him? I just wanted to lure him out and see him make a fool of himself," Wang Man said. "If I had seen him actually come today, I would have laughed at him tomorrow... Turns out he's really cunning."
Guan Xiaolin then realized that Tang Huaiyi was right; the person who wrote the letter had ill intentions.
Then he became somewhat displeased: "Wang Man, how could you do this? Tang Huaiyi is not familiar with you, nor is he a friend. You're just deliberately causing trouble."
"If Tang Huaiyi criticizes you again, I won't speak up for you. You're in the wrong for what you did."
Hearing Guan Xiaolin say this, Wang Man felt a little embarrassed: "I was just angry that he said I was brainless and used some kind of pig feed monster to trick me and embarrass me..."
"If you hadn't believed Zhao Weimin's words in the first place and hadn't attacked him, he wouldn't have said those things about you," Guan Xiaolin said. "In the end, you're still in the wrong, so don't be so angry anymore."
"At worst, you can sincerely apologize to him tomorrow, and then don't talk to him anymore. Just treat him like a normal classmate you don't know, and don't cause him any more trouble."
"Otherwise, even if you're my best friend, I can't help you bully others. Wouldn't that make me just like Zhao Weimin?"
"Xiaolin—" Wang Man called softly, her voice tinged with grievance, "Why aren't you on my side?"
"I'm on your side, but you're in the wrong," Guan Xiaolin said seriously. "Wang Man, everything I said is true. Don't do anything like this that's just looking for trouble—I really thought someone had fallen for Tang Huaiyi."
"Okay, okay."
Wang Man said sullenly, "I'll listen to you, okay? I won't bother him anymore. But don't make me apologize to him... The thought of apologizing to him makes me feel really uncomfortable."
"You don't understand Tang Huaiyi. He's not a bad person," Guan Xiaolin said. "Just apologize to him frankly, and you might become acquainted with him."
"Let's forget it, it feels too awkward."
As the two were talking, they went to the bike shed to get their bicycles. They had only taken a few steps when they heard a sobbing, pleading voice coming from the darkness.
"I beg you—I really can't smoke and drink anymore!"
"Teacher Tian will go to my dad, and my dad will beat me to death!"
I'm begging you!
A loud slap rang out, followed by Zhao Weimin's smug voice: "What? We brothers smoke and drink with you, and you're still not happy? Are you looking down on us? Not giving us face?"
"Do you still consider us friends?"
Two other voices echoed, "Yes, yes!"
"These are all good cigarettes and liquor, and you won't even accept them? You really don't know what's good for you!"
"Zhao Weimin?" Guan Xiaolin called out in the direction of the voice, "Are you bullying someone?"
Several dark figures hurriedly left, and then there was no more sound.
Clearly, Zhao Weimin had made up his mind to pretend that nothing had happened.
Guan Xiaolin said to Wang Man, "Did you hear that? You still think Zhao Weimin is some kind of good person? He keeps saying he's making friends with Tang Huaiyi, but that's what he's really doing."
"It's right that Tang Huaiyi doesn't give him face. If you really give him face, he'll quickly become your lackey and you can forget about studying."
Wang Man listened intently, finally realizing for the first time that she might be in the wrong.
It turns out that Tang Huaiyi was truly innocent; Zhao Weimin had fabricated the lie.
Zhao Weimin was a good person before; she never realized he was this kind of person...
