Chapter 205: Redemption
Zhao Dan stopped what she was doing and rubbed her dusty hands against her clothes before pulling Yun Xi to the side.
“Are you satisfied now? Did you help your sister take revenge? Now that I’ve been chased out of the dormitory, it’s exactly what you wanted, isn’t it?”
Zhao Dan’s face fell as he questioned Yun Xi.
“I know you must be very helpless now, but I’ve come to look for you to resolve this matter.”
Yun Xi first calmed Zhao Dan down, then began to slowly explain the purpose of his visit today.
“I’ve already found out who exactly told the entire school about your family situation. I’ll guarantee that it was definitely not me, and the news this time is absolutely true.”
Yun Xi made a hand gesture to make an oath.
“The person who told all the teachers and students about your family situation this time was none other than the sister of mine you mentioned, Yun Lian.”
“Was it actually her?”
Other than shock, there was also a hint of anger in Zhao Dan’s tone. It was likely that she had also considered the possibility that Yun Lian had snitched on her.
After all, her relationship with Yun Lian could be said to be incompatible like fire and water. Moreover, Yun Lian was the only person she could bully in the dormitory. It would not be strange if Yun Lian had really done it.
“Did you tell your parents that you were chased out of the dormitory?”
Yun Xi asked.
“No.”
Zhao Dan shook her head.
“I didn’t want my parents to worry about me. After all, you’ve seen the conditions in my family. I only told my father that I came home to stay with my mother for a few days before returning to school.”
While Zhao Dan and Yun Xi were talking, Zhao Dan’s mother, who had been resting in the house, walked out suddenly. From afar, she could only see their backs.
“Children, don’t stand outside. Come in, quick.”
Zhao Dan’s mother warmly greeted Yun Xi.
“Yun Xi, please. Can you please act like we’re very good friends in front of my mother? I don’t want her to worry. I want her to think that I’m also a normal high school student and can make friends with people of the same age as me.”
Zhao Dan had a pleading tone. At this moment, she could not care less about her pride, and could only lower her head to ask Yun Xi for help.
“Okay.”
Yun Xi’s lips curled into a smile.
After all, the mission given by the space this time was to act as Zhao Dan’s redemption. Faced with such a request, Yun Xi would naturally agree. Even if Zhao Dan herself did not have such a request, she would still show that the relationship between the two of them was very harmonious in front of Zhao Dan’s mother.
“Thank you!”
Zhao Dan said gratefully.
As soon as Yun Xi entered the room, she felt that the light source in the room was a little dim. It was likely that the lights had been in a bad condition for a long time. Moreover, there was only a piece of glass for the window and it was very old. The rest of the place was covered with old clothes, and a layer of dust was obviously over it.
Zhao Dan’s mother took a small cup filled with water and placed it in front of Yun Xi.
“We don’t have any snacks or tea leaves at home. We only have a cup of water to serve you. I hope you don’t mind.”
Zhao Dan’s mother was very polite.
Looking at the other furnishings in the house, this cup must be the only container for water in the house. There was even grease floating on the water in it. Normally, Yun Xi would not be able to swallow it. However, she picked up the cup and drank a mouthful of water today.
Zhao Dan watched Yun Xi drink the cup of water and was very touched.
“Actually, I have an idea. Why don’t I share a secret with you? Maybe it will help you take revenge on Yun Lian.”
Yun Xi put down the cup and leaned closer to Zhao Dan’s ear, telling her that Yun Lian’s foster father, Yun Gang, was a toilet cleaner.
“What?”
Yun Lian actually came from such a family background. How could she still have the audacity to expose other people’s shortcomings?
Zhao Dan clenched her fists. A plan was already brewing in her heart.
