He Sui choked and blinked dazedly. âWhat do you want to do to He Jing? After all, this was the first time she has made such a mistake. Thereâsâ¦Thereâs no need to be too heavyâ¦â
He Yuan slapped the back of his head. âApologize to Jingjing!â
He Sui, who had just been kind to He Jing, was stupefied. âWha⦠What?â
âApologize. To. Jingjing!â
These words slowly came out of He Yuanâs mouth. He recognized every word, so why couldnât he understand them when they were strung together?
He Sui almost subconsciously said without thinking, âWhy should I apologize to He Jing when she bullied Xiao Yi? I wonât!â
âJingjing didnât bully Xiao Yi,â He Yuan said seriously. âI took half a day off today and went to Yin High School to ask Jingjing and Xiao Yiâs class teacher about the situation. On the other hand, Jingjing was bullied in school by the Shen familyâs daughter and was then framed by you guys. You guys are really somethingâ¦â
He Suiâs expression suddenly changed. He looked at He Jing and reprimanded, âWere you bullied at school? Why didnât you say so!â
He Jing looked at him in amusement.
He Sui cowered and resentfully retracted his gaze. He turned back to He Yuan and said unwillingly, âWhat could the class teacher know? Maybe He Jing secretly bullied Xiao Yi. Otherwise, why would Xiao Yi cry and say those words in front of usâ¦
âThen youâll have to ask Xiao Yi.â
To be honest, he was also shocked when he found out that He Jing hadnât done anything to Cheng Yi.
After all, He Sui had made such a big deal out of it and seemed as though he was going to embarrass He Jing today. He thought that He Jing had at least humiliated Cheng Yi verbally.
However, she had not.
He Jing had never said anything unpleasant to Cheng Yi.
On the other hand, Cheng Yiâs public rebuke on the second day of school was suspected of targeting He Jing.
Yin High School was a small place, and everyone knew about the slightest commotion. Even seated in the office, the class teacher knew everything. Moreover, the class teacher had called the students to the office to ask for details. These words were all said by the students themselves.
At this point, He Yuan did not think about anything else. He only wanted his two younger brothers to apologize to He Jing. He pressed down on He Suiâs head and icily lectured him, âYou accused Jingjing without distinguishing right from wrong and still dare to quibble. This is what the He family taught you.
Apologize!â
He Sui had no room to resist under his big brotherâs authority. He snorted unwillingly, âIâm sorry.â He Yuan slapped him again. âLouder.â
âIâm sorry!â he said loudly.
He Jing wouldnât go so far as to make things difficult for a 17-year-old kid. Of course, she generously forgave him. However, when she thought of how infuriating his previous words were, He Jing couldnât help but dig up old wounds. âIâm so vicious that you wonât treat me as your sister anymore?â He Sui was speechless.
âIâm so despicable. If I stay in the He family, youâll go; if you stay, Iâll go?â
He Suiâs face flushed red and he glared at her angrily. âHe Jing, enough is enough!â
He Jing refused and taunted him. He Sui felt guilty. He lowered his head and said, âI was wrong, okay? I definitely wonât treat you like this in the future.â
âThatâs a good boy.â
After teaching He Sui a lesson, it was He Ningâs turn.
He Jing merely looked over.
He Ning had no words.
Three seconds later.
âIâm sorry, itâs my mistake,â he said coldly.
As he spoke, he did not give He Jing any room to express herself. He turned to He Yuan and said, âBrother, you guys go back first. Iâll wait for Xiao Yi here. I have something to ask her..â
