Meng Yan's Transformation

Chapter 286 Becoming the Scapegoat

Zhan Mengyan was shocked by Fan Yingying's words, as if she was struck by lightning and could not move. She felt the ground beneath her feet cracked instantly, which was terrifying. Fan Yingying spoke calmly, as if it had nothing to do with her, but to Zhan Mengyan, her voice was like the sound of Thor's hammer hitting the ground, which made Zhan Mengyan's heart beat faster, her face turned pale, and she was shocked so much that her soul seemed to be shaken out of her body.

Zhan Mengyan couldn't believe her ears at all. It was too unbelievable. She stuttered and asked, "Fan... Yingying, are you sure you want me to lie for you and take the blame - saying that Xu Jingjing fell because I filmed her from behind?"

"Hey, Zhan Mengyan, don't get too excited. Don't get too excited. Admit that you took the photo of Xu Jingjing from behind. You are not lying, and you are not taking the blame. It is a white lie at most! You are selflessly and fearlessly helping your classmates! Only admitting that you took the photo of Xu Jingjing from behind can be the best help to me. Only someone like you who is chivalrous and brave can do it. Others don't have the courage and guts..."

"Fan Yingying, you made me sound like a hero. You thought that just the right amount of praise and words could make me happy. Flattering someone without leaving any trace is indeed very pleasing, but your words were too explicit and shocked me. I don't have the chivalrous spirit and courage to take the blame and lie as you said. You've got the wrong person. I'd better ask someone else to help you with this. I can't help you..."

Zhan Mengyan said this and turned around and walked quickly towards the school.

Seeing that her plan was about to fail, Fan Yingying accidentally flattered the horse's leg instead of the correct one, and the horse kicked her backwards. She "thought quickly" and rolled her eyes, and fell to the ground with a cry of "Ouch!"

Zhan Mengyan was walking when she suddenly heard Fan Yingying's voice behind her. She looked in the direction of the voice and saw Fan Yingying lying on the ground, motionless.

Zhan Mengyan subconsciously ran towards Fan Yingying, only to see Fan Yingying face down on the ground, "unconscious". She turned her over, and saw blood flowing from her forehead.

Zhan Mengyan was so scared that she leaned over and called out, "Fan Yingying! Wake up... Fan Yingying, wake up quickly! Don't scare me anymore! You were fine just now, talking fluently, how come you fell down all of a sudden?"

Despite Zhan Mengyan's calls, Fan Yingying remained motionless. Zhan Mengyan panicked and hurriedly carried Fan Yingying on her back and ran to the county hospital.

"Fan Yingying, please don't get into trouble. If you ask me to lie, I will lie. If you ask me to take the blame for you, I will take the blame for you. I just hope you are well and safe..."

Zhan Mengyan's mumbling words were heard clearly by Fan Yingying on her back, and a strange smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Zhan Mengyan happened to meet Xu Jingjing's father and mother in the hospital corridor as they accompanied her to the bathroom.

"Zhan Mengyan, who are you carrying?"

Fan Yingying's face was pressed tightly against Zhan Mengyan's shoulder. Xu Jingjing couldn't see her face clearly and asked in surprise.

"I...I am carrying Fan Yingying on my back. We...we originally came to visit you together, but on the way to the county hospital, Fan...Yingying fell down and it seemed...it seemed that she had hit her head and she...is unconscious. No matter...I called her, she...didn't respond. What should I do..."

Zhan Mengyan used up her last bit of strength to speak, revealing anxiety and annoyance as she spoke.

"Dad, Mom, they are all my good classmates and good friends. Please help them. Please help them..."

Xu Jingjing also became nervous and anxious, and she kept urging him.

When they arrived at the emergency room, Fan Yingying suddenly "awoke". She "struggled" to get off Zhan Mengyan's back and said in surprise, "Zhan Mengyan, how did we get to the hospital?"

Zhan Mengyan was sweating profusely and gasping for breath. She felt like her lungs were about to explode. She waved her hands and couldn't utter a word.

Xu Jingjing told Fan Yingying what had happened.

"Thank you, Zhan Mengyan, for sending me to the hospital. I was just worried about Xu Jingjing's injury. I couldn't eat anything. I was a little confused because of hunger. Xu Jingjing, how is your injury? Does it still hurt?"

Fan Yingying spoke weakly.

"Look at you, kid. You're injured, but you're still worried about others. Let the doctor take a look at your injuries! After treating your wounds, go back to Jingjing's ward. Auntie will prepare some delicious food for you. If you don't eat, you will have hypoglycemia and become confused." Xu Jingjing's mother said distressedly.

"Aunt, I just got a little scrape on my forehead. It's okay. I'll be fine after I go back to school and wash it with clean water. We are just worried about Xu Jingjing's injury. Zhan Mengyan was joking with Xu Jingjing and slapped her from behind, causing her to fall and get hurt. Zhan Mengyan blamed herself so much that she cried secretly with regret. She insisted that I accompany her to visit Xu Jingjing and asked for forgiveness from Xu Jingjing, uncle, and aunt. She only has five yuan on her now, which she will use for Xu Jingjing's medical expenses first. Zhan Mengyan knew that the money was too little and she couldn't say it herself, so I said it for her. She will go home at the end of the month to ask her parents for money to make up for Xu Jingjing's medical expenses."

As Fan Yingying spoke, she looked at Zhan Mengyan with a face full of heartache, and then looked at Xu Jingjing and her father and mother with longing eyes.

"Alas, you are such a sensible kid. You even injured yourself while trying to apologize to your classmates."

Xu Jingjing's mother was so moved by what Fan Yingying said that her eyes became moist.

"Zhan Mengyan, take out the money quickly. You practiced your apology so many times on the road, how come you can't say a word at the critical moment? She is a well-known taciturn person in our class. Uncle and aunt, please don't be surprised. Xu Jingjing knows it..."

Fan Yingying winked at Zhan Mengyan and pulled her in front of Xu Jingjing's father and mother.

Zhan Mengyan slowly took out her five yuan, bowed deeply to Xu Jingjing's father and mother, and said, "I'm sorry!"

Xu Jingjing saw Zhan Mengyan's embarrassment and recalled the sound she heard when she fell. She felt like something was wrong.

"Zhan Mengyan, why do I feel like you're not the one taking the picture of me, but rather you're the one taking the blame for someone else?"

Fan Yingying was frightened by Xu Jingjing's words. She pretended to faint and her body shook instinctively.

"Oh my god, please ask the doctor to check your child's blood sugar or a head injury. He was just playing around with his classmates. Why should he apologize or pay for the medical expenses?"

Xu Jingjing's mother stuffed the medicine back into Zhan Mengyan's pocket and helped Fan Yingying to the emergency room to treat the wound.

Just as Fan Yingying said, the forehead was just slightly scratched and the doctor cleaned it with iodine.

The group returned to Xu Jingjing's ward. Xu Jingjing's mother kept giving Fan Yingying apples, bread, and biscuits...

Fan Yingying's mouth was stuffed full of food by Xu Jingjing's mother. Fan Yingying ate while mumbling, "Thank you... Thank you..."
