On a rainy night, the school beauty knocked on my door and asked for shelter

Chapter 65 Why are you pretending to be innocent!
When Chen Mo and Su Yuqing walked out of the school gate, there were only a few classmates left on campus.

Many of them were couples who went out together. They stayed a little later on purpose to enjoy some time alone before coming out.

Chen Mo and Su Yuqing walked side by side, blending in with the crowd, just like a young couple who secretly stayed in the classroom and enjoyed some sweet time before leaving the campus.

The dusk stretched the shadow of the sycamore tree at the school gate very long. The hem of Chen Mo's school uniform was lifted up by the wind and then fell down gently.

Su Yuqing's fingertips hanging by her side unconsciously brushed against his wrist, like willow branches brushing against the surface of a lake in spring, causing both of them to retract their hands at the same time.

They had held hands or walked together hand in hand more than once or twice before, but in this situation where it felt like a couple walking hand in hand, they were still shy.

Chen Mo didn't care about holding Su Yuqing's hand normally, but when he treated Su Yuqing as his girlfriend and walked hand in hand with her, he always felt that his outstretched hand would automatically freeze.

Because there will be an inexplicable feeling of shyness lingering in my heart.

The two walked side by side without saying a word, each looking straight ahead as they left the campus.

After leaving the campus, although there were more pedestrians on the street, there were no people looking at them from time to time like they did on campus, which made the two of them relax a lot.

There were many snack stalls at the school gate. Chen Mo looked at Su Yuqing with a smile and said, "Is there anything you want to eat?"

Su Yuqing smiled and shook her head. Her mother's affairs had not been settled yet, and she had no appetite at the moment.

Until this matter was completely resolved, she always felt like there was a big stone blocking her heart.

Chen Mo also saw her mood at the moment, so he didn't say anything else.

Soon the two came to the intersection, stopped a taxi, and headed towards Su Yuqing's mother's house.

On the other hand, when they left the campus...

In the Senior 3 (1) class, Qu Danwan, who was used to cleaning the podium after school, had just finished cleaning the podium and blackboard when she was blocked in the classroom by several girls.

"Please move aside." Qu Danwan said directly with an expressionless face when she saw several girls.

"Qu Danwan, what do you mean?" The girl with a high ponytail who was the leader of the three girls looked at Qu Danwan coldly and questioned.

"I don't understand what you mean!" Qu Danwan was stunned and looked at the three people. It was completely contrary to Tiangang. She was blocked by the three of them, and they actually asked her what she meant?
At this moment, Qu Danwan really wanted to ask what the three of them meant.

"You're quite good at pretending!" the girl with the bun scolded, "If you dare to do it, you must admit it. Aren't you usually quite brave? Why are you trying to deny it now that the time has come?"

Facing the relentless pressure from the girl with the bun hairstyle, Qu Danwan clutched the blackboard eraser and took a half step back in the classroom shrouded in dusk.

"What's going on? Please tell me straight away. I don't have time for these cryptic conversations." Even though they were retreating, Qu Danwan remained firm. The high-tailed girl leading the group practically dug her nose with her nails. "Why are you pretending to be innocent? You snitch!"

"What did I complain about?" Qu Danwan frowned and looked at the three people.

"Okay, okay, you're really stubborn. Don't think you can sneak into the teacher's office and report us for bringing snacks into the classroom without anyone noticing!" The girl with the ball-shaped hair glared at Qu Danwan and said, "Aren't you disgusting? How did it bother you if we brought food into the classroom to eat?"

"That's right, you're such a bitch." The girl with the ponytail sneered at Qu Danwan and cursed, "I've always disliked you. You pretend to be a good student and a good girl in front of the teacher. Even if it's not your duty, you stay behind every day to tidy the podium and wipe the blackboard. Who are you pretending for? I want to vomit when I see your pretentiousness!"

Hearing the other party calling her "old man" all the time in a rude manner like boys quarreling, Qu Danwan was actually a little overwhelmed.

This kind of little gangster-like girl rarely had any interactions with her on a daily basis. When she suddenly appeared in front of her, she didn't know what to say for a moment.

But she still responded bravely: "If you don't want to watch, don't watch. No one wants you to watch. And I have never complained about anyone in front of the teacher. Don't slander me. It's nothing. I'll leave first."

After saying that, Qu Danwan was about to leave, but the girl with a high ponytail grabbed her chest and pushed her back to the table.

"Huh, why would we come to you without any evidence? Our Xiaoru saw you come into the office to complain with her own eyes, so why are you still pretending to be so arrogant?"

As the girl with the high ponytail spoke, she revealed a girl behind her who didn't look too girly and had a slightly timid personality.

"Xiao Ru, tell her what you saw!" The girl with a high ponytail looked at Qu Danwan with a sneer, as if to say, "Didn't you expect that? I have witnesses. Let's see how you defend yourself."

Hearing this, Qu Danwan couldn't help but look at Fang Xiaoru in surprise.

"I didn't hear it with my own ears, but I saw that not long after you, Danwan, came out of the teacher's office, the head teacher came to our class and talked about the incident of bringing snacks into the classroom. He also named Huihui and Mengyao. If you hadn't reported it at that time, then I don't know who it was." Fang Xiaoru said cautiously.

"Hmph, what? Do you think we forgot? I also remember that time when you collected the homework books and went to the teacher's office. Not long after you came back, the head teacher said that we brought snacks into the classroom. We didn't have much time to bring the snacks back to the classroom, and you happened to see us before you went out. Who else could it be but you!" Chu Mengyao looked at Qu Danwan with a vicious look.

"I didn't." Qu Danwan leaned her back against the cold podium and defended herself weakly.

Proving one's innocence is always the most difficult thing in this world.

If someone asks you to prove that you didn't do something you haven't done, you will most likely be left with no way to defend yourself.

The girl with the bun named Song Huihui suddenly kicked over her chalk box, sending the colored chalk clattering all over Qu Danwan's cloth shoes. "The spicy noodles in my drawer during second period last Wednesday morning, and the popping candies Xiaomei brought to first period the day before yesterday afternoon—the teacher knows everything. Those times, I remember you'd go to the teacher's office and then return to the classroom not long before the homeroom teacher came to check. Who else but a prudish nerd like you would snitch?"

As Song Huihui finished speaking, Qu Danwan's eyes suddenly widened. She remembered that every time she was about to go to the teacher's office, she would always see Fang Xiaoru running out of the classroom or disappearing outside the corridor.

When I saw her again, she was walking back from the teacher's office. Of course, the teacher's office was next to the stairs, so she might have come out from the stairs.
