Chapter 35 That Silly Girl
"Now, let's discuss your views on the 'One Country, Two Systems' policy." The politics teacher stood at the podium, his sharp eyes scanning the crowd, no one dared to meet his gaze. Whoever met his gaze would undoubtedly be the one answering the question.
"Ah!" A sharp cry broke the dead silence of the classroom.
"Old... teacher, Yu Xin, Yu Xin she... she..." Tang Yu Xin's deskmate, Yu Jinglei, seemed to have been shocked, and her words were incoherent. Qiao Anyu looked at her, feeling that her facial features were somewhat distorted. Looking again at Tang Yu Xin, her expression was normal, only her face was paler than usual, with a faint, enigmatic smile, which, set off by her deskmate's terrified shriek, made one feel a chill of unease.
"What's wrong? Making a big fuss over nothing." The politics teacher quickly walked to Tang Yuxin's desk, as it was the last group in the row and Tang Yuxin sat at the wall side of the table, her deskmate trembled and made way.
The politics teacher's face changed greatly as soon as he saw it, and he probably didn't expect this kind of scene either. He trembled with fear and said: "Quickly, class monitor, quickly go call the people from the infirmary."
Xu Xiao received the order and immediately ran towards the infirmary. The politics teacher ordered again: "Come back! Carry her to the infirmary."
Before he had even finished speaking, Shu Zimo was already carrying Tang Yuxin on his back with Su Yuzhe's help and hastily running towards the infirmary.
It happened suddenly, and the classmates who stretched their necks to find out what was going on hadn't figured out the situation yet. The politics teacher had already regained his serious expression and sternly said: "Class monitor, maintain order, I'll go to the infirmary for a while." After saying that, he hastily followed him out.
As soon as the politics teacher stepped out of the classroom, the room erupted into chaos and Xu Xiao couldn't calm it down.
Before long, news of Tang Yuxin's wrist-slashing suicide spread to every corner of the classroom.
After class, classmates flocked to the scene of the incident, discussing it in a flurry of voices. Yu Jinting also followed them to the infirmary, otherwise she would have had to respond to her classmates' various questions and satisfy their curiosity.
There was a patch of congealed blood under Tang Yuxin's desk, shocking at first sight.
"I don't know what it's like to feel a cold knife stabbing into my wrist. Maybe I've already lost all feeling. What kind of mentality allows her to be fearless in the face of excruciating pain and death? I pondered for a whole day, but still couldn't figure out the reason. Is there something in this world that is even more frightening than death?"
It turns out that Shu Zimo has greatly changed my impression of him. I always thought he was a cold and ruthless guy who took it upon himself to bully the weak, but it turns out he also has a kind side. However, on second thought, it's possible that this guy Shu Zimo might have fallen for Tang Yuxin too."
As the diary went on, Qiao Anyu's regret for Tang Yuxin at first turned into a comprehensive review of Shu Zimo's behavior today. From primary school to now, she has always maintained the habit of writing diaries, recording every happy, sad and angry thing that happens every day in her diary. She herself can't remember how many diaries she has changed.
Tang Yu Xin was absent from school for a whole month. The matter gradually subsided. The school also held an abnormal mental health symposium, on the one hand to eliminate the shadow of this incident on the students' psychology, and on the other hand to prevent such incidents from happening again. After all, if such things are spread out, the school's reputation will be affected to some extent.
However, Tang Yixin's motive for suicide remains a mystery.
"It's said that Tang Yuxin was dumped by her boyfriend, so she killed herself." Gu Sichen had a keen eye and ear for rumors, and the sources of gossip flowed endlessly. As for Tang Yuxin's motive for suicide, there seemed to be a new explanation every day.
"Where did you hear this from again? Is a boyfriend more important than life?" Qiao Anyu was puzzled.
"You've read so many romance novels, do you even know what love is? Life is precious, but love is priceless. Have you ever heard that before?" Gu Siqi said it as if she were a seasoned veteran of the dating scene.
"It's just a guy who doesn't cherish himself, does he need to be looked at as more important than his own life?" Qiao Anyu still thought Tang Yuxin was too silly.
"When the authorities are confused, the bystanders are clear. But sometimes, when the heart is too painful, it can only be alleviated by physical pain." Gu Siyan's words were truly astonishing, and who knows where she got them from.
"Who's her boyfriend? How irresponsible!" Qiao Anyu's expression turned indignant.
