"Feng Feng, pay up." The girl fixed her gaze on Feng Feng's face.
Feng Feng blinked, about to speak, when Mu Anxiao interjected, "I don't want her money, I want yours." She surveyed the girls and boys present.
"You do this, I can sue you."
"Sue me, go ahead." Mu Anxiao seemed unbothered.
"You..."
Feng Feng, worried they would bully Mu Anxiao, quickly said, "She's a stranger, I just asked her to help carry my bags. You don't have to listen to her."
For some reason, Mu Anxiao found this group of people unpleasant, especially the way the girls looked at them and the inaction of the two boys who seemed to be gossiping with the girls. It made her angry.
"You two men, come help me," she said, glaring at the two boys who were looking at each other. "What are you standing there for?"
Hearing Mu Anxiao's indifferent voice, the boys quickly stepped forward and obediently took the bags from her.
Mu Anxiao shook her hands and said, "I'm leaving."
"Mm, thank you." Feng Feng nodded.
Mu Anxiao didn't say anything, walked past the girls, and headed towards the restroom.
Feng Feng glanced at Mu Anxiao's retreating figure, then at the displeased girl, saying, "I didn't say anything."
"Feng Feng, is this meaningful to you?" the girl suddenly asked.
Feng Feng's expression froze. "What do you mean by that?"
"If you hadn't said things you shouldn't have to that person, would that person treat us like this? You must have said something to her."
Feng Feng's arrival here was already a difficult task. She, who never skipped class, had begged her mother for leave today to meet this friend who was accustomed to skipping class. On the bus, she was thinking about all sorts of happy things, but who knew that as soon as she got off the bus, she was met with her friend's demands. If that were all, she could have considered herself unlucky. But who knew that this friend, without asking if she was tired, started lecturing her. With these two points, coupled with her long-suffering patience, she had had enough.
"I treat you as a friend, but you treat me like a slave. I've never met anyone like you." She tore off her pretense and said.
"You..."
"Six months ago, I lent you fifty yuan, and you still haven't returned it. Today, as soon as I got off the bus, you asked me to buy you milk tea. That's fine. You said she's your friend, so naturally she's my friend too. I accepted that. But I didn't expect..." Feng Feng gave a bitter smile, "You're such a hypocrite, acting one way at school and another way outside. Honestly, I've been unhappy with you like this for a long time."
"If it weren't for me when we first entered school, you would have been beaten up long ago."
"They were unhappy with you. If I hadn't been friends with you, you might not be who you are now."
"You..." The girl pointed at Feng Feng's face.
"Don't think I don't know. You just keep using me because you think I'm rich. I came today intending to talk to you alone, but who knew you'd bring these irrelevant people along again. I've really had enough," Feng Feng said, glancing at the two boys carrying the bags. "You guys split these. My words aren't directed at you, only at her." After saying that, she glared at the girl and turned to walk away.
The girl stood stunned, took a deep breath, turned, and smiled at the others. "Don't mind her, let's go watch a movie. Everyone, have some milk tea."
"Okay, you'll get the money later," the first girl said, pointing at the girl.
