Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xia Qianqian was still carefully explaining every word.
Meanwhile, Wang Xiaoya was half leaning on Xia Qianqian. A few drops of tears were hanging from her eyelashes, making her look extremely helpless.
“I think it’s just as Qianqian said. I’ve always kept the money in my wallet and kept it carefully. I’ve never put it anywhere else without permission. If there wasn’t a thief, how could it disappear without a trace?!”
Wang Xiaoya raised her head sadly as she spoke, her voice was sour.
Everyone in the class looked at each other when they heard what Wang Xiaoya said.
What Wang Xiaoya and Xia Qianqian meant was that one of the sixteen students who came here stole the money?
In fact, three thousand yuan was not much for these rich young men and women. It was about the same as how an ordinary person would feel when they saw three hundred yuan.
However, if there was a thief among them, everyone’s personal belongings were in danger!
After all, no one wanted to be classmates with a thief!
A girl tying pigtails stood out. She looked at Xia Qianqian and Wang Xiaoya hesitantly with a look of disbelief.
“Qianqian, Xiaoya, what you said can’t be true, right? All the students in our class are very rich. No one would do such a thing for three thousand yuan, right?”
Another girl standing next to her immediately retorted when she heard that.
“That’s not necessarily true! Didn’t they say on Weibo that there are rich girls who like to form groups to steal things? It’s not because of that little bit of money, but because they have developed a habit of stealing things. They find it thrilling and exciting!”
Soon, many people began to discuss it.
“Damn, is it true?! This kind of hobby is too disgusting!”
“It’s true. Why would I lie? A few days ago, it was even trending on Weibo! It was said that five rich girls teamed up to steal from the supermarket, and the one who stole the most was the winner!”
“Eh, there really are all kinds of birds in the forest!”
Seeing those classmates happily discussing the trending searches on Weibo, Xia Qianqian’s face suddenly turned a little unhappy!
Who asked them to change the topic?!
Xia Qianqian frowned and immediately coughed heavily.
“Everyone, quiet down! Now is not the time to discuss Weibo topics! Our first priority is to find the thief who stole the class fee!”
“That’s right. Although everyone may be rich and think that 3,000 yuan is nothing, how can we, grade one Class A, allow such scum to exist?!”
Xia Qianqian and Wang Xiaoya, whose face was filled with tears, looked at each other. Although the two of them spoke so grandly, the 3,000 yuan was actually placed in a compartment of Xia Qianqian’s backpack.
It could be said that when the two of them lied, their faces were not red nor did their hearts skip a beat. They were extremely calm and could even act in various ways.
Upon hearing Xia Qianqian’s words, many of the boys in the class started to get angry.
“Yeah, if this gets out, our Class A’s image will be ruined in the future, right?! There’s actually a thief in our class, this is simply refreshing my worldview!”
…
Xia Qianqian was very satisfied with this kind of angry crowd. She shook Wang Xiaoya, who was still sobbing, and pretended to comfort her.
“Xiaoya, don’t cry. It’s not your fault that you lost the money. We all know how much you’ve paid for our class as a lifestyle committee member. At most, I’ll give you the 3,000 yuan.”
Everyone in the class couldn’t help but be moved when they heard Xia Qianqian’s words!
Although 3,000 yuan wasn’t a lot to the people present, they still felt a little heartache when they thought about throwing it away for nothing.
A few boys from the class who came to autumn excursion looked at each other. A rich second generation who had always admired Xia Qianqian immediately stood up.
“Qianqian, how could I let a girl like you give away 3,000 yuan? Why don’t I offer instead? I’ll treat everyone to a meal and make everyone happy.”
Xia Qianqian shook her head at the boy.
“No, I was confused just now. The most important thing now should be to find the thief. She’s in our class, so the 3,000 yuan must still be here!”
Xia Qianqian’s words woke up the dreaming people, and everyone in the class immediately nodded!
“Yeah, the thief is clearly here! Why are we talking about paying for it ourselves? We just need to catch the thief!”
Xia Qianqian was very satisfied with the atmosphere she created.
She carefully rubbed Wang Xiaoya’s hand and started to ask seriously.
“Xiaoya, who do you think is most likely to steal our class fees? I fell asleep very early last night. Did you notice anything wrong?”
Wang Xiaoya’s face was full of tears. When she heard Xia Qianqian’s words, she couldn’t help but shake her shoulders again as if she was really very vulnerable.
“I… I don’t know either. It rained non-stop last night. I also fell asleep after you fell asleep…”
Xia Qianqian sneered in her heart and continued to ask according to the lines that she had thought up before.
“So can you think of anyone suspicious?”
Wang Xiaoya seemed to have been suddenly woken up. She raised her head, and her red eyes suddenly looked directly at Ye Linlang in the crowd!
Her eyes were filled with tears, and her gaze that suddenly swept over was obviously filled with surprise and disbelief. Wang Xiaoya’s lips moved twice, as if she wanted to say something but stopped.
Following Wang Xiaoya’s gaze, everyone looked over.
At that moment, more than ten people’s gazes fell on Ye Linlang!
That feeling was difficult to describe!
Ye Linlang suddenly felt like she was stripped naked in broad daylight. She felt extremely uncomfortable!
She had long thought that Xia Qianqian and Wang Xiaoya would not play such tricks for no reason. As expected, after going around in circles, they were still targeting her in the end!
Ye Linlang frowned coldly. There was no smile on her baby-fat face.
“Why are you all looking at me?!”
Wang Xiaoya took a deep breath and seemed to have mustered up her courage before she spoke.
“Ye Linlang, yesterday at noon, you kept staring at the stack of banknotes in my wallet. Now that I think about it, you really…”
When Wang Xiaoya looked at Ye Linlang in shock, the girl with the pigtails suddenly exploded!
“Ye Linlang, you must be the thief! Although your sister Ye Siyao didn’t come, she already mentioned it before! Her father didn’t give you any money at all!”
“Didn’t you say that the purple phone you bought was also a pirated version?”
“Yeah, among us, Ye Linlang is the poorest, right? Why didn’t I think that she was a thief just now! I’m really too naive!”
The students spoke one after another. Every word was like an needle, piercing into Ye Linlang’s heart!
Why were all of them suspecting her like this?
When Ye Linlang heard those people’s words, the bitterness in her heart was indescribable.
Just because she was poor, just because she couldn’t afford a cell phone, they could pin the crime of stealing on her?!
