Love Letters

Chapter 117 The Money Is Wrong

"I don't think you need to hide it from her. He Miao is mentally strong."

Du Yuze glanced at him and spoke in a negotiating tone.

"I have my own plans."

Xu Mobai suddenly turned around, his whole body facing the light, and the expression on his face was unclear.

What did he lie to her about? He Miao wanted to listen more, but she accidentally stepped on a can in the corner, making a loud noise...

Who is so lacking in civic sense as to litter everywhere?

The legs reacted faster than the brain! He Miao was so scared that he picked up the can and ran away.

It was so fast that it left no trace at all.

The sunset outside the window is gorgeous and colorful, and it is only when I was a student that I could pay attention and appreciate its beauty.

As soon as Du Yuze left, Shen Weiwei came over.

"Mo Bai, are you really not going to go?"

Shen Weiwei went straight to the point and asked him directly.

"Well, I have no plans to go now."

Upon hearing this, Shen Weiwei's face lit up with joy, "Does that mean there's still a possibility of going?"

Xu Mobai neither answered nor denied.

"I've been wanting to ask you this for a long time. The red string on your hand is so pretty."

As Shen Weiwei was talking, she wanted to touch him, but as soon as she stretched out her hand, he dodged.

"I see you seem to value this rope very much."

She smiled awkwardly and casually asked, "Why? Was the red string given to you by someone you like?"

"Yes."

Xu Mobai admitted it directly without hiding anything.

He narrowed his eyes, and his dust-free eyelashes cast a shadow on his lower eyelid.

Perhaps she didn't expect him to be so frank. Shen Weiwei was stunned for a moment, "Ah... So that's how it is."

"Be careful when you go down by yourself later."

Without waiting for her answer, Xu Mobai left first.

“Ah…ok…”

Faced with his sudden concern, Shen Weiwei was stunned for a moment, and it took her a long time to react.

Neither of them noticed that the girl on the other side of the wall covered her mouth in surprise, as if she had discovered something shocking.

In the evening, when He Miao returned home, he found He Dahai was on the phone.

Seeing her come back, he whispered something to the other party and hung up the phone.

"Miao Miao is back?"

"Yeah, Dad, who are you talking to on the phone?"

"Ah...nothing."

He Dahai hesitated a bit, as if trying to change the subject, "You mentioned the autumn outing before, why don't you sign up for it and have some fun."

"Why did you suddenly agree to let me go?" He Miao felt a little happy, but still wanted to ask clearly.

“It’s always good to participate in more activities when you are young.”

As if recalling something, he showed some sadness on his face, "Don't be like me and your mom, we didn't enjoy our school days."

As he said that, He Dahai took out money and gave it to her.

He Miao didn't answer, hesitantly, "My mother..."

"There's no problem with your mother. She agreed."

He Dahai was somewhat surprised by He Miao's change. "Here! Take it. Use the extra to buy some delicious food."

"Thanks dad."

He Miao took it and said, "Please say thank you to my mother for me."

the next day.

He Miao got up late these two days because of exams, the nagging of Zhang Meili and He Dahai, and because she was a little excited.

By the time she arrived at the classroom, almost all the students had already taken their seats.

The atmosphere was a bit depressing, and He Miao passed by several classmates on his way back to his seat.

She greeted them, but they didn't seem to want to pay any attention to her.

However, He Miao did not feel bored, as she could also attend the event.

She looked at Chen Fangfang's seat and heard from her classmates that she had been called to Hu Datu's office.

Seeing that she had not returned to her seat yet and class was almost about to start, He Miao became a little anxious.

Listening to the rustling sound coming in through the open window behind the curtains, staring at the ray of sunlight peeking out from the curtain rails…

Her attention was gradually diverted, and she began to relax.

After class, He Miao suddenly wanted to find Xu Mobai. She wanted to ask him what he and Du Yuze meant by what they said.

What had he lied to her about?

"Xu..."

"Miao'er!"

She was about to speak when Liu Feifei suddenly came over and interrupted her.

She had a mysterious look on her face and seemed to be worried about something.

"You are planning to..."

"I want to ask Xu Mobai something..."

"Don't ask yet."

Liu Feifei suddenly interrupted her, "Come with me first."

She pulled He Miao to the end of the corridor and deliberately lowered her voice.

"Miao'er, let me ask you something."

"You said."

He Miao had felt something was strange since morning. Everyone seemed to have something to say, but they just wouldn't explain it clearly.

She felt as anxious as a kitten being tickled and was not happy at all.

"Prepare yourself mentally first."

"I was ready before I came, just tell me."

"Did you give the student council member the gift he wore on his hand on his birthday?"

He Miao was surprised, "How did you know?"

"I can rest assured that."

Hearing this, Liu Feifei immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"I just heard our student council member and Shen Weiwei chatting. The student council member said that the red string on his hand was given to him by someone he likes."

She told He Miao what she saw and heard.

"I almost thought it wasn't from you."

"That wasn't sent by me."

He Miao spoke calmly.

"Not you?"

Seeing Liu Feifei's surprised expression, He Miao paused and continued, "I really didn't give that thing as a gift."

Liu Feifei:.........

"Who is that?"

In an instant, He Miao connected what Liu Feifei said with what he heard yesterday.

He treasured that red rope so much... In fact, she guessed from the beginning that it must have been a gift from an important person.

But that night he said he liked her...

As he was thinking about it, the previous question "So you lied to He Miao?" "Yeah." came to his mind again.

He Miao suddenly had a bad guess: Was he lying to her when he said he liked her?

What is the purpose? Why do you say this?

Maybe he just wanted to sympathize with her, to let her let go of her entanglement with him and focus back on her studies?

When you think about it this way, it all seems to make sense.

No wonder he said he liked her but didn't want to date her.

No wonder he didn't react when she confessed to him before.

No wonder he had been thinking about pushing her away before...

"He Miao."

He Miao returned to her seat, before she even sat down, when Chen Fangfang suddenly called her.

"Squad leader, do you have something to say to me?"

He Miao was a little surprised. "That's right. I have something to talk to you about."

"You come with me."

Chen Fangfang was a little weird and He Miao looked confused.

"Class monitor, I also want to sign up for the autumn outing."

As he said that, He Miao gave her the money.

Seeing this, Chen Fangfang was stunned, and soon her face turned ugly.

"What's the matter? Squad leader!"

He Miao was puzzled and confused, but suddenly he had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Where did you get the money? Didn't you say your family didn't give you money?"

"My dad suddenly agreed to let me go again last night."

As he said that, He Miao handed the money to her again.

Seeing that she didn't answer, He Miao asked again, "What happened? Did something happen?"

“When you gave the money to Teacher Hu yesterday, was the money correct?”

Chen Fangfang suddenly asked her very seriously.

"I don't know how much money was in there at the beginning. I only know that Hu Da...the teacher counted it three times and it was all..."

He Miao suddenly reacted, his face changed slightly, "So it's the money that's wrong now?"

"Well, the people who signed up and the people who paid don't match."
