After this incident, I didn't take the initiative to talk to Yu Sheng anymore. I started talking more frequently with Lin Yi at school, and sometimes we would go to the cafeteria directly after discussing the topics. Due to being in different teaching buildings, I rarely have the chance to run into Yu Sheng at school, unless Yu Sheng takes the initiative to find me.
So I have never encountered Yu Sheng when I was with Lin Yi. It was rumored that the news of Lin Yi and I dating spread very quickly. Because in just a few days, the class teacher called Lin Yi and me to the office together.
"You are still young and don't understand the drawbacks of being in a relationship. If you have a conflict between you, it will affect your studies if you keep dragging your emotions."
I and Lin Yi awkwardly glanced at each other, but he had a look of enjoying the show, which made me feel like I had to save myself.
"Teacher, Lin Yi and I are just ordinary friends. We talk about studying and have meals together as classmates. It's your misunderstanding..."
The homeroom teacher waved his hand and then looked serious, "Yesterday in the office, the principal talked about Lin Yi's application to join the Communist Youth League. A teacher said that his conduct was not suitable. But at that time, Yu Sheng spoke up for Lin Yi, saying that even if a person makes a mistake, he should be given a chance to reform himself, and not to focus too much on Lin Yi's past mistakes. I immediately knew it was you who instigated your brother to speak up for Lin Yi in front of the leaders."
Yu Sheng is a member of the student council. His position is not high, but he has a lot of contact with teachers. So, when he speaks, the teachers who are familiar with him will consider it a little. I haven't reacted to the information in these words yet, and the homeroom teacher is still speaking.
"Originally, when the students said that you and Lin Yi were dating, I didn't believe it. But even your brother is speaking up for someone he didn't even know, and I started to feel something was off."
The homeroom teacher looked at me suspiciously, "You two really aren't dating?"
I stared blankly and shook my head, and Lin Yi echoed, "No, teacher, Xia Wan and I are just classmates."
The homeroom teacher didn't respond to him, but instead instructed me, "The two of you should keep your distance from now on. This kind of situation is hard to explain to anyone who sees it."
"And you," the homeroom teacher then called Lin Yi over and gave a hinting lecture, "Learning requires self-study. Don't always rely on others to teach you. Spend more time doing exercises on your own..."
After leaving the office, I went directly to the School Committee to find Yu Sheng. On that day, Yu Sheng was there preparing for a leadership meeting.
Lin Yi followed me and kept asking me for a while, but I was angry and ignored him.
The Committee Office was very close, and we arrived in just a few minutes. Yu Sheng saw me and Lin Yi behind me, and took us to the empty meeting room next door.
"You really have some tactics, Yu Sheng," I said angrily, staring at him.
"What are you talking about?" Yu Sheng seemed puzzled, poured me a glass of water, and then invited Lin Yi to sit down. But I didn't quite believe he wasn't playing some tricks up there. "You're in the office, facing so many teachers, and you're just assuming Lin Yi used to steal things and then saying something about giving him a chance to repent and start anew. So, are you the only one who gets to be the good guy?"
Originally, those leaders were not clear about what mistake Lin Yi had made, but Yu Sheng meddling in confirmed Lin Yi's guilt. According to the class teacher, Lin Yi can forget about joining any clubs in the entire high school. Yu Sheng is sometimes really clever.
After listening to what I said, he didn't immediately refute. I looked at him, his expression was truly rich, his mouth moved for a long time but didn't make a sound.
" Xia Wan."
I was a little dazed, he never called me by my full name.
At this moment, I realized that I had just leaned in very close, close enough to hear his breathing.
His breathing became heavier and heavier, and the surroundings were so quiet that it seemed like only his heavy gasps could be heard.
His eyes held a look of resentment and despair.
"You are now baselessly accusing me, what's the difference between you saying that guy is a thief to them?"
Now I couldn't say anything, I organized my words several times but couldn't speak out confidently.
Even I myself knew that what I was about to say was unreasonable."
"I still have things to do. If you want to argue, let's do it another time." He regained his composure and slowly walked out of the meeting room. As if nothing had happened, he busied himself in the next room.
At this moment, Lin Yi cautiously spoke up, "If I understand correctly, Yu Sheng spoke up for me in front of the teacher, right? It's really hard for him not to be hurt by your actions..."
"He," I choked back tears, my voice trembling, "he clearly knows how to do better, but..."
"I'm already very grateful," Lin Yi handed me a tissue, "he's not Superman, he can't predict so many things."
"Speaking of turning over a new leaf, isn't he a prime example? I remember he got in trouble in middle school, but being able to join the student council in high school definitely shows outstanding work ability. He's a great senior..."
Lin Yi is still speaking slowly, but I have no interest in listening anymore.
I feel so uncomfortable.
Clearly, I'm not the one who's been hurt.
Why do I feel so bad? All the blame is on me, and he never admits that I'm right.
