Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Lan Yaxin posted on the school’s forum early on the news that Lan Anran was going to be expelled, her words laced with sadness.

“Sis, there is still a long way to go and setbacks will pass. You will have to lead a good life after leaving Rong City University.”

This attracted the attention of many people and a large number of students flooded into the comments section. Most of them believed Lan Yaxin. After all, she was Lan Anran’s sister, so her words must be true.

Many people flooded into Lan Yaxin’s post, saying malicious things.

“Leave, vanity monster!”

“You rascal! Your face and actions are completely different!”

Lan Anran didn’t care about these things, she was waiting for Lan Yaxin to be embarrassed.

The principal’s voice was heard over the radio at this time.

“Students, we have caught the students who stole the test papers. I gave you a chance, but you didn’t cherish it, so don’t blame me for being merciless!”

The principal turned off the radio after speaking. He was a little disappointed that the name they had been waiting for hadn’t been exposed.

“Yaxin, why do I have a bad feeling?”

Yang Qing’s right eyelid kept twitching and she was a little nervous.

“What’s there to be afraid of? It’s not you.”

Gu Qiu mocked her for being timid.

The next second, the principal appeared in Class 2’s office.

“Yang Qing and Gu Qiu, come with me!”

They were both startled. Why was the principal looking for them?

They trembled as they stood up and looked at Lan Yaxin at the same time, but Lan Yaxin pretended as though nothing had happened and didn’t look into their eyes.

“What happened?”

“Could it be them?”

The class broke into a discussion as they watched the two of them being taken away.

A group of teachers in the office were watching Yang Qing and Gu Qiu through the monitor.

“So it’s the two of you! Why did you steal the test paper?” the dean shouted.

They were both startled.

“Dean, what are you saying? We’re not the ones who stole the test papers, it was Lan Anran!”

Yang Qing looked up and smiled.

“You’re unrepentant! How dare you accuse someone else! Look carefully, is that you in the monitor?”

The dean pulled them to the monitor.

Yang Qing and Gu Qiu saw it clearly. Yesterday night, they sneaked into the office to look for something, but they didn’t know they had installed surveillance cameras!

“Dean, I’m innocent! Lan Anran asked us to do this. She said that if we didn’t help her, she would find someone to kill us!”

Gu Qiu burst into tears.

Li Yue and the dean were both dumbfounded. Li Yue went to the classroom to call Lan Anran over.

“Anran, what happened? They said that you instigated them.”

She didn’t believe Lan Anran would do such a thing. Lan Anran looked soft and weak, she didn’t seem like the type of person to do such a thing.

“I do not have any conversations with them, I didn’t know about this. Yang Qing, Gu Qiu, you’re already in this state and yet, you’re still trying to deny it? Friends should share both fortune and misfortune. If you’re friends, why haven’t your friend come out and shoulder the responsibility?”

Lan Anran implied at Lan Yaxin.

They both knew that it wasn’t worth it to shoulder the responsibility for Lan Yaxin when she’s hiding behind and letting them defend her.

“If I testify, can you not punish us?”

Gu Qiu raised her hand in fear.

“Gu Qiu!”

Yang Qing looked up at her with a displeased expression.

“Tell me! I can lighten the punishment!”

The principal was solemn.

“It’s… It’s…”

“Gu Qiu! You want to be a traitor?”

Yang Qing questioned.

“Yang Qing, take a look. It isn’t fair for us to become like this and for her to become a good student in peace. We are doing this for her sake. Why should we suffer here?”

Gu Qiu cried.

Yang Qing didn’t say anything.

“I can tolerate you accusing me, but if word spreads, it’ll be a stain on your names. Who would dare to accept you as their students?”

Lan Anran continued to attack their mentality and Yang Qing wavered.

She was right, this incident could become a stain and she couldn’t live with it forever.

“It’s, it’s Lan Yaxin!”

Yang Qing lowered her head.

“What? She is a good student in the school, why would she let you steal the test papers?”

The principal was in disbelief.

“She also hates Lan Anran, so we hit it off!”

Gu Qiu lowered her head.

“Students like you don’t prioritize your studies and are always scheming!” the principal said heartbroken.

“Principal, we made a mistake and will never do it again. Please forgive us.”

Gu Qiu begged humbly.

“Call Lan Yaxin over!”

The principal sighed.

Coincidentally, Lan Yaxin walked over and asked, “Teacher, what happened to my friends?”

She spoke innocently.

“Lan Yaxin, did you let Yang Qing and Gu Qiu steal the test paper to frame Lan Anran?” the principal asked solemnly.

“No, Principal, Anran is my sister, why would I harm her?”

Lan Yaxin spoke seriously, her expression so sincere that no one could tell it was fake.

Yang Qing and Gu Qiu were stunned. How could this be?

“Yaxin, that wasn’t what you said back then. You said you hated Lan Anran and that’s why we helped you. That wasn’t what you said back then,” Yang Qing said agitatedly.

“Yang Qing, are you mistaken? Back then, I was just fighting with my sister and it wasn’t to the extent of framing her.”

Lan Yaxin spoke seriously..
