As the days passed, the relationship between Yuruo, Xia Lin, and Cheng Jing changed subtly.
Yuruo still took Xia Lin to and from school every day as usual. At that time, Yuruo's heart was still very eager to be the most intimate friend with Xia Lin. However, Yuruo gradually realized that no matter how much she treated Xia Lin, Xia Lin would only look for Yuruo when she needed Yuruo. When she didn't need it, she would still be intimate with Cheng Jing. As for Xiru, she was always alone. She never gave up Cheng Jing's position in her heart, but... This situation will erupt one day if it goes on for a long time
One night after self-study, Xiru asked Yuruo to go home together. The two of them rode their electric bike slowly on the road.
"Yuruo, I'm so sad. I'm really sad. Now, Cheng Jing is intentionally isolating me. Our relationship was so good in the past, but now she's ignoring me.”Xi Ru stopped the car and said as she cried.
Yuruo had never seen Xiru so sad and wronged. At this moment, her heart was also sour. Yuruo also felt bad. She thought of Xia Lin, who she treated sincerely every day, and felt sad.
Yuruo took a deep breath and comforted Xiru,"Don't cry, we should find a chance to talk to them. I don't feel good either. Cheng Jing will always be higher than me in Xia Lin's heart, even though I treat her very well. Really, the few of us should find a chance to talk.”After Yuruo finished speaking, Xiru wiped the tears off her face and nodded,"Alright, we'll talk about it tomorrow." After the discussion, their backs gradually disappeared under the neon lights.
When she got home, Yuruo tossed and turned in bed, her emotions complicated. What would happen tomorrow? Would it return to the past? Would there be any disputes tomorrow? These questions lingered in Yuruo's heart? The answer would only be revealed tomorrow afternoon.
In the late autumn season, the leaves piled up on the campus. The cold wind seemed to tell them that this was the season of separation. Finally, the afternoon of the next day came.
"Yuruo, Cheng Jing was yelling like a mad dog outside. I asked her why she was always hot and cold to me, and you were so good to Xia Lin, picking her up and sending her off every day, why did she treat you like this? Before I could finish, Xia Lin was on the verge of crying and acting coquettishly to Cheng Jing. Then Cheng Jing shouted at the door of the class, saying that Xia Lin and I are good, so what? We know each other, we are compatible. What do you mean? Go! Call Yuruo out and let her tell me face to face.”Xiru said to Yuruo with a disappointed and helpless expression.
"Heh, they're really good at acting. She even asked me to talk to her?”Yu Ruo said disdainfully.
Suddenly, the bell for the second period rang, but Yuruo could only stay in her seat. This class was politics, so Yuruo was not in the mood to listen. She turned her head to look at Xia Lin and Cheng Jing, who were sitting at the back. They were chatting happily. At this moment, Yuruo sneered and muttered," This is what friends are like, this is what friends are called. Should I give myself a bloody lesson? Or, will my blood calm down this war without smoke?"”
Thinking of this, Yuruo turned to Fan Xu as if she was possessed,"Deskmate, lend me the small blade you use to sharpen your pencil.”
"What are you doing? Don't mess around. I know you have a conflict with your good friend.”Fan Xu said to Yuruo with a hint of fear.
Yu Ruo forced herself to pretend to be relaxed and said to Fan Xu,"Deskmate, you're thinking too much. I just want to use your blade to scrape off this stain on the table. Don't worry, I won't dare to do anything rash.”
Fan Xu didn't see through Yuruo's thoughts, so he took out the knife he used to sharpen his pencil in art class and gave it to Yuruo.
Yuruo took the knife and started to scratch on her politics book. The textbook looked brand new, but it was torn into pieces by the knife in her hand.
"Are you crazy? You're using a blade to cut a book. If you have the ability, cut your own hand.”The voice of his other deskmate, Xiao Shan, came from the side.
"Hehe, Xiao Shan, how did you know that I have the habit of rowing? You know me too well. I really plan to do this.”Yu Ruo said to Xiao Shan with a fake smile.
"Alright, go ahead. I'll see if you dare to have such courage.”Xiao Shan said to Yuruo with a mocking tone and a disdainful expression.
"Xiao Shan, can you not provoke her? She's really in a bad mood now. Don't provoke her like this anymore.”Fan Xu, who was sitting on the right side of Yu Ruo, stared at Xiao Shan angrily.
"I think she doesn't dare to do so.”Xiao Shan continued to chatter.
Yuruo showed a calm expression and didn't say anything. She had already decided to teach herself a lesson and try her best to salvage this broken friendship.
As soon as the bell rang, many students went downstairs to the cafeteria to buy food. Yuruo made up her mind and took the blade to cut her left finger. Fan Xu, who was sitting at the side, shouted in surprise," Don't be like this, put the blade down!"”
Fan Xu's scream didn't stop Yu Ruo, who had lost her mind. She continued to scratch her left hand, and blood started to seep out of her fingers. As Yu Ruo scratched her hand, tears flowed down her cheeks, and she kept saying," Why does it have to be like this? Why? Why?"
Fan Xu grabbed the blade from Yu Ruo's hand and threw it on the ground before yelling at Yu Ruo,"Are you stupid? Is it worth it to hurt yourself for such a group of unworthy people?”
At this moment, Yuruo couldn't listen to Fan Xu's words at all. She was still looking for a blade like crazy. Suddenly, she saw a pencil sharpening knife on the table behind her seat. She picked up the knife on the table with lightning speed. This time, she suddenly cut her left arm where her pulse was. The result of that cut was unpredictable. The blood on her arm started to flow down her hand. At this time, Yuruo put down the blade and cried in pain. It was not because of pain, but because of the feeling of heartbreak.
Fan Xu hugged Yuruo," I've never seen someone as stupid as you. Why are you like this? You're not worth it." Fan Xu cried as he spoke. At that moment, her heart ached for this silly girl beside her. Yuruo also hugged Fan Xu tightly. The two girls instantly turned into tears.
This action attracted Xiru, Cheng Jing, and Xia Lin, who were chatting fervently. They ran to Yuruo's seat without saying anything. At this time, Cheng Jing pulled Yuruo out of the class, and everyone followed. Xiru saw that Yuruo's arm was still bleeding, and she quickly took a tissue to stop the bleeding. At this time, Yuruo's tears were still flowing out, and Xiru was also crying. They thought that the cutting of the hand would only happen in TV dramas was actually being shown today.
Arriving at the door, Yuruo leaned against the wall and squatted down. She didn't want to talk or explain. Cheng Jing squatted down and said apologetically to Yuruo,""Yuruo, I know, it's my fault. I took away the Xia Lin you cared about the most. I won't be with Xia Lin anymore.”
"No, it's not Cheng Jing's fault. I made you sad.”Xia Lin pouted and said.
"Can't everyone be fine? Why did you have to do this?" The innocent Jingxue said excitedly and helplessly.
"In the future, everyone should still be together. I don't want to see a situation where we are divided.”Xi Ru said as she looked at Cheng Jing with tears in her eyes.
These scenes were so hypocritical and fake in Yuruo's eyes. Cheng Jing and Xia Lin were still acting. Usually, the two of them would talk about other people's gossip, but now they were actually acting here. How ridiculous!
Yuruo laughed disdainfully and stood up,"I understand everything. I'm fine. I just wanted to test if the knife was sharp enough. Look, it's not bleeding now. The scab will slowly heal. You guys go buy food.”After saying that, she quickly walked into the class.
Returning to her seat, Fan Xu was still there. Yu Ruo's tired expression made Fan Xu see the result. He patted Yu Ruo and said,"Is your arm okay? Also, don't scare people like this in the future. Don't do things that hurt yourself because they're not worth it.”
These words warmed Yu Ruo's broken heart to varying degrees. Yu Ruo picked up a tissue and wiped the remaining tears from the corner of her eyes. She smiled and said to Fan Xu,"Thank you, Xu. When I hugged you and cried just now, I felt that there was still warmth by my side. Thank you for giving me a trace of comfort when I was at my most helpless. I'm sorry for making you cry for me. I won't do such a stupid thing again in the future. Really, I won't do it anymore. In that moment just now, I seemed to have seen through everything. My arm is fine now, and the blood isn't flowing anymore. However, to be honest, it still hurts a lot. Now that the pain is coming, it hurts."
As Yuruo spoke, she turned her head to look at Cheng Jing and Xia Lin. The two of them were laughing and talking while eating snacks. At this moment, Yuruo felt like a clown. She didn't put herself in their eyes at all, and her grievances couldn't be seen by them. "It's really not worth it. It's really time to give up. I don't want to fantasize about the carefree world where the five of us were together.”Yu Ruo muttered to herself.
"Ring, ring, ring." The bell for the evening self-study session rang. The students walked into the class in an orderly manner.
"No way, did you really cut your hand? ohmygod。You're really a fool. I've never seen such a fool.”Xiao Shan, who had returned to his seat, looked at Yu Ruo in surprise.
"It's all because of you." Fan Xu scolded Xiao Shan.
" I really didn't know that you would do this. Deskmate, don't be sad. If there's anything you can't get over, come, Brother Shan will tell you a joke later," Xiao Shan said to Yuruo with a smile.
"Yuruo, let me tell you, don't bother with them anymore. I'll be your companion in the future. Also, An Yu from our class, she and I have known each other since primary school and live very close to each other. She's a very nice person.”Fan Xu said happily to Yuruo.
Things came to an end. That unbearable friendship made the innocent and ignorant Yu Ruo pay the price of blood and pain, but she still firmly believed that she had met Fan Xu who was sincere to her, An Yu who barely spoke to her, and this strange and humorous deskmate Xiao Shan. Yu Ruo started a new life, but she deeply did not know what kind of bumpy road she would encounter after happiness.
