Chapter 623: Chapter 623: College Entrance Exam Top Scorer (10)_1 Chapter 623: Chapter 623: College Entrance Exam Top Scorer (10)_1 As these thoughts crossed her mind, Wu Juan couldn’t help but look toward Huang Xiaoxiao, suddenly realizing the truth.
Ruan Hao’s words, whether believed by her or not, were also taken as fact by all the students present because his character and way of doing things were well established, leaving no room for doubt.
As for whether she herself had said those things or not, regardless of whether others believed her, she knew the truth.
And with that, there was only one person who knew the whole truth!
“Was it you who spread the rumor back then?!” Wu Juan asked, incredulously staring at Huang Xiaoxiao.
Because of this matter, she had once been the center of collective ridicule. So many girls at school liked Ruan Hao that when it was first rumored the bracelet was ant for her, she beca a target.
Latter when the bracelet ended up not being given to her, the mockery only deepened, and it took her a very long ti to move past it.
She could never have imagined that the person who put her in this awkward position would turn out to be her best friend.
Moreover, after more than two years had passed and everyone had forgotten about the incident, she brought it up again at the Ruan family’s ho, putting Wu Juan back into the sa predicant. She simply couldn’t believe it.
“Xiaojuan, it wasn’t , I…” Huang Xiaoxiao beca anxious, but despite her lips moving, she couldn’t find any words to defend herself.
Shu Jiao had, in just a few words, laid her bare, leaving her utterly defenseless.
She was both frantic and flustered, yet at a loss for what to say in her defense.
“Why would you do this to ?” Wu Juan asked, a look of sheer pain on her face.
“…” Ruan Jiaojiao.
She blinked and silently shifted her gaze away.
She had to admire Shu Jiao’s fighting spirit: if Jiaojiao was good at arguing and bickering, then her mother was the kind who could kill without leaving a trace, right?
But clearly, Shu Jiao wasn’t ready to let it go just yet.
She looked ambiguously at Huang Xiaoxiao, then turned to Ruan Hao and said, “In the future, you should be careful when choosing friends. It’s better to make friends who share your values and can truly benefit you.”
With that light, yet pointed comnt, Huang Xiaoxiao was on the verge of tears.
“All right, I won’t disturb you any longer. This is a place for young people, and with a teacher around, you can’t really enjoy yourselves.” She glanced at her watch and added, “There’s about an hour before we start eating. Ruan Hao, take good care of your classmates. Jiaojiao, co downstairs with mom; don’t bother your big brother and big sister any longer.”
Ruan Jiaojiao nodded and obediently followed Shu Jiao downstairs.
After Shu Jiao and Ruan Jiaojiao left, the living room fell silent once more.
Wu Juan was sobbing, Huang Xiaoxiao was also crying, and the others, unsure of how to react to their tears, were at a loss, while Ruan Hao remained smiling, encouraging them to eat fruit and pastries and subtly shifting the conversation to another topic—as if nothing had happened.
Wu Juan, watching his smiling, handso face, understood better than anyone that she never had a chance before and still didn’t have one now. Everyone said Ruan Hao was gentle and refined, seemingly warm to everyone, but such a person, in truth, was utterly heartless…
Having taken Ruan Jiaojiao downstairs, Shu Jiao led her to the inside of the stairwell, touched her little head in praise, and said, “Jiaojiao did very well today.”
“Rember this, Jiaojiao: If no one offends , I offend no one; if soone offends , show no rcy.”
