220 220 Reject moral kidnapping
Xu Yan then looked at He Ling and Zhao Ru. “First, it was Wei Ling. Now, it’s Li Jia. Those who are close to Tan Jing all got into trouble, but nothing happened to her. Don’t you think it’s strange?”
He Ling and Zhao Ru looked at each other and muttered in their hearts.
“Class monitor, you shouldn’t spout nonsense,” Tan Jing quickly retaliate.
Xu Yan ignored her. “Be careful, dear classmates!”
He quietly put the blame back on Tan Jing again. This was what she deserved.
As soon as he said that, the class suddenly became lively.
“He has a point! Look at Wei Ling and Li Jia. They were both close with Tan Jing!”
“Oh my God, then I have to stay away from her. In case she throws me under the bus without me knowing!”
Some of them even advised He Ling and Zhao Ru, “Well, you shouldn’t be standing up for Li Jia. If you have the time, you should run for your life by now.”
Tan Jing saw that the situation was one-sided and quickly tried to save her image. “It’s all my fault. I didn’t stop them from making those mistakes. You can scold me all you want.”
Seeing her like this, He Ling and Zhao Ru’s doubts disappeared. The two of them chose to close their eyes and believe Tan Jing.
“Jingjing, don’t be sad. We believe in you.” He Ling reassured her.
“It’s Wei Ling and Li Jia’s fault! It’s not yours.” Zhao Ru comforted her.
Tan Jing’s eyes were red from crying. “If I had realized that something was wrong with them earlier, I wouldn’t have let them take the wrong path.
“Did they take the wrong path or did you put them there?” Tan Rou coldly said.
Before Tan Jing could say anything, He Ling and Zhao Ru, who were defending Tan Jing, attacked first.
“Tan Rou, don’t go too far with this. It’s fine if you’re unwilling to have mercy on your classmate but now you’re trying to frame Jingjing. Are you even human?” He Ling cursed.
“You guys must be mistaken.” Tan Rou frowned. “I’m the one who was bullied on the internet. The person who slandered me was Li Jia. As the victim, can’t I ask for justice?”
“But, Jiajia already knows her mistake and look at you, you’re fine!” Zhao Tu emphasized.
“If it wasn’t because I was mentally strong, the grass on my grave would have grown out by now.” Tan Rou’s eyes were cold.
“I will definitely sue Li Jia. Not just her, but everyone who spreads rumors on the internet will pay the price. Not a single one of them will be spared.”
“Reject moral kidnapping!” Li Li crossed her arms. “Please, what did Li Jia give you? She has committed a crime and you’re still trying to clear her name? Are you the reincarnation of a cleaner?”
“That’s right, Tan Rou is the victim. Is it popular now that the victim has to forgive the criminal?” The students who had misunderstood Tan Rou before were now on her side.
“You guys, stop trying to use morality to kidnap Tan Rou. When she was being scolded, none of you said a word but now you’re speaking up for the criminal. How ridiculous.
“If anyone wants to cause trouble, it should be Tan Rou who’s looking for trouble with Li Jia. Your ability to make bogus accusations is a good match for Tan Jing’s ability to put blame on innocent people.”
Everyone chimed in one after another, shutting out the two of them. They had no choice but to give up and return to Tan Jing’s side.
Tan Jing didn’t forget to end the fiasco with a ‘saintful’ speech. “Xiao Rou, I’m very happy to see that you’re fine. I apologize to you on behalf of Li Jia for slandering you. I hope you don’t blame her for this. Li Jia is still young. If she goes to jail, her life will be ruined. I hope you can be magnanimous and let her get a lighter sentence.”
Then, she returned to her seat sadly. He Ling and Zhao Ru glared at tan Rou and followed Tan Jing back.
“IIs Jiajia really going to jail?” He Ling asked.
Tan Jing sniffled, wiped her tears and said sadly, “I will find the best lawyer and try to reduce Jiajia’s sentence. Although she made a mistake, she is still my good friend. I can’t just wait for her to get sentenced to such a huge crime!”
“What can we do for Jiajia?” He Ling asked.
The corners of Tan Jing’s lips curled up slightly as she said, “The only thing we can do now is to help Jiajia take good care of her mother. Auntie lives alone, and she’s not in good health. Why don’t we take turns taking care of her and talk to her, so that she can feel that her daughter is still by her side?”
Both of them felt that this method was feasible. They decided that they would take care of Li Jia’s mother and talk to her alongside Tan Jing.
