On the other side, Lin Xue was dragged back to the educated youth settlement by Sun Cuilan. The female educated youths hadn't slept well all night because their houses had been burned down.

Hearing the commotion outside, they all gathered around. Li Yumei, who was in charge, led Chen Qingsong and his men in and asked directly without any preamble.

"Old Chen, what's the matter from last night?"

Chen Qingsong, with a cigarette still dangling from his mouth, glanced at the aggressive Li Yumei and sneered.

"Deal with? Don't you know what you did last night? What do you want to deal with?"

Seeing his impolite manner, Li Yumei couldn't help but frown.

"Sang Huan set this house on fire! Not only was our woodshed for boiling water burned down, but our living quarters were also affected. Shouldn't she give us an explanation?"

The cigarette in Chen Qingsong's mouth burned down to the butt. He took another deep drag before reluctantly taking the cigarette out, throwing it on the ground, and stubbing it out with the sole of his cloth shoe.

"Why did Sang Huan set the house on fire? Wasn't it because you all made her go boil water?"

"Then we..."

"Don't give me that nonsense. Were your work points given to that young girl? If so, I'll have the team leader come over right now and transfer all your previous and future work points to Xiao Sang's name. We'll talk about compensation after that!"

Without giving Li Yumei a chance to speak, Chen Qingsong interrupted her directly, and seeing that the female educated youths' faces had all changed after hearing his words, he pressed on while the iron was hot.

"Everyone knows how things got out of hand. The person you almost killed didn't cause any trouble, and you're still jumping around here. We've seen plenty of shameless people, but people like you are rare."

After saying that, he ignored the ugly expressions on Li Yumei's and the others' faces and leisurely walked into his room with his hands behind his back.

Sun Cuilan felt extremely satisfied watching this group of people who were so arrogant yesterday become so pathetic today. She forcefully pushed Lin Xue, who was trying to minimize her presence, into the yard.

"Hey, I told you sometimes you need to be more diligent, but you wouldn't listen. Now look what's happened! You got into big trouble because you were trying to get something for nothing. You deserved it!"

Her words instantly drew everyone's attention away. Li Yumei, realizing she had been involved in yesterday's events, immediately felt embarrassed.

"Sun Cuilan, how dare you speak like that!"

"What else can we say? We'll just say it like that. But don't be angry, Sister Yumei. Last night's events were ultimately caused by someone instigating things. If anyone's to blame, it's that person for dragging everyone into this, not us, right?"

Ignoring the expressions of those present, Sun Cuilan left after saying those words.

Immediately, everyone's eyes turned to Lin Xue beside her.

After a long silence, a female educated youth suddenly spoke up in a low voice.

"I wasn't actually that tired yesterday. It was Lin Xue who insisted on having Sang Huan help boil water. I only agreed because everyone else agreed."

"Me too. It's all Lin Xue's fault. She insisted that her sister do the fire."

"Exactly! She knew perfectly well that her sister couldn't do it, but she still insisted that she do it. Now look what happened!"

"Besides, she only worked for an afternoon, how could she be as tired as us? Sister Yumei, I think she just wanted to mess with Sang Huan, but she dragged us down with her."

Hearing everyone say that, Li Yumei, who was eager to save face, couldn't care less and quickly chimed in.

"Everyone is right, Lin Xue, this whole thing started because of you, you have to take responsibility."

Lin Xue was shocked that she would be blamed for everything. She stomped her foot angrily and retorted, "You all agreed, how can you blame me!"

"Who else is to blame but you? If you hadn't said anything, would we have thought of asking Sang Huan to boil water? If we hadn't asked her to boil water, the house wouldn't have caught fire!"

"Exactly, this is your responsibility! We've been working all night without even a sip of water, and look at the state of our lodgings!"

"If you don't take responsibility, we'll go to the captain and tell everyone that you're a vicious woman who even exploits her injured sister!"

Everyone chimed in, giving Lin Xue no chance to retort. She looked to Li Yumei for help, and Li Yumei nodded in agreement.

"Xiaolin, although you and Sang Huan don't get along, you are still sisters, so you should take responsibility for this."

Lin Xue was furious and turned her gaze to Liu Chunyan, the only person she knew well.

Liu Chunyan, who was hiding in the crowd, simply turned her head away as if she hadn't seen her. Lin Xue was so angry that her face turned red and she stomped her foot hard.

But she didn't want her vicious reputation to spread, so under pressure from everyone, she turned to her bed and searched for the last bit of money she had left, then reluctantly distributed it to everyone to settle the matter.

Everyone stared wide-eyed when she came out with a small stack of ten-yuan bills, especially Liu Chunyan in the crowd.

She knew beforehand that Lin Xue and her sister were wealthy, but she didn't expect them to be this rich. This small stack of money must be at least two hundred.

Even working-class families probably wouldn't be willing to spend this much on their daughter!

What kind of family must Lin Xue's family be in?!

Remembering what Lin Xue had asked her to keep from her, her eyes darted around and an idea immediately popped into her head.

Seeing Lin Xue finish handing out the money and turn to leave, she took advantage of everyone's inattention and turned back to chase after her.

"Minor Snow, Minor Snow!"

Lin Xue's heart bled when she saw the group counting money. She knew that no matter how well-off the Lin family was, they wouldn't spend hundreds of dollars at once.

Aside from some money given by the Lin family, most of it came from subsidies provided by the educated youth station. She had originally planned to use this money to pave the way for starting a business in the south in the future!

But now, she's lost most of it in one go. What will she do about her food, drink, and business ventures?

Seeing that Liu Chunyan hadn't spoken up for her earlier, yet still dared to come looking for her now, Lin Xue became even more impatient.

"what?"

Liu Chunyan knew that her behavior just now was wrong, but she didn't think she had done anything wrong. She chuckled and moved closer to Lin Xue.

"Xiaoxue, don't be angry. There were too many people here, so I couldn't speak up for you. But I know this isn't your fault. Yesterday, everyone in that group was involved, but you're the only one being blamed. That's so unfair."

Lin Xue, still seething with anger, didn't bother listening to Liu Chunyan's rambling and gave a cold laugh.

"What exactly do you want?"

Seeing that she wasn't buying it, Liu Chunyan awkwardly scratched her head, but she had come for something else and didn't care about Lin Xue's attitude.

He glanced around mysteriously, then pulled Lin Xue to a secluded corner and whispered something.

"Xiaoxue, do you have feelings for Song Ye again?"

"What's it to you? Liu Chunyan, I'm warning you, I gave you a lot of money before, if you go too far I won't give you any more."

Seeing that she had revealed her purpose in one sentence, Liu Chunyan chuckled and rubbed her hands together.

"Hey, don't be like that, Xiaoxue. I'm just trying to give you some advice because I see you're not making any progress with that country bumpkin and we're like sisters."

As she spoke, she glanced around cautiously, and only after confirming that no one was around did she lean close to Lin Xue's ear and whisper in her ear.

Lin Xue, who had been looking annoyed, suddenly brightened up when she heard Liu Chunyan speaking!
