In order to improve the efficiency of communication with Xixiao, Qinghua deliberately learned sign language.

After that, the communication efficiency between Qinghua and Xixiao improved a lot. However, when working on group projects, the troubles of the past reappeared again. The most important reason is that except Qinghua, no one

Be willing to make time to learn sign language specifically.

"Isn't it okay to just use a notebook? Sign language is too troublesome... Let's just use a notebook. Is that okay, classmate Xixiao?"

Everyone was smiling and looking harmonious. In such a warm environment, Xixiao would of course nod in agreement and return the favor with a warm smile.

This guy...has a completely resigned look.

So Qinghua went to find her class teacher.

"This is a good idea, Qinghua-san. It can bring everyone closer to Xixiao-san... Since Qinghua has learned sign language, how about you take everyone to learn sign language?"

I……

Qinghua's original intention was of course to refuse.

However, since we have talked about this...

"Students, Qinghua-san came to me with a very good suggestion today. Xixiao-san has always used a notebook to communicate with everyone, resulting in very low efficiency. Qinghua-san thinks that using sign language might be able to

To further shorten the distance between each other, Qinghua-san specially learned sign language for this purpose."

"First of all, Qinghua's helpful spiritual quality is worth learning - so I refer to Qinghua's proposal and let everyone learn sign language together three minutes before the first class every day. Then let Qinghua and Xi

Xiao-kun, let’s teach everyone together.”

"good--"

It seems that from that moment on, Qinghua gradually realized that the attitude of people around her had changed drastically.

"Hey... I just love showing off in front of the teacher."

"You love to show off, so don't drag us into the water..."

The seeds called [disgust] were planted a long time ago, and took advantage of this opportunity to take root and sprout.

Xixiao and Qinghua made an appointment to take turns teaching everyone sign language. Every time Qinghua taught sign language, everyone deliberately did not study hard and disrupted the order. However, when Xixiao taught sign language, everyone showed a very cooperative look.

——Of course, it's just a show, a few simple movements. If you don't practice them repeatedly, you will soon forget them.

Therefore, the final result is that no one has learned sign language as systematically as Qinghua.

Now...after all, why should I bring trouble to myself...

Because she had to take care of Xixiao everywhere, Qinghua's grades were also greatly affected.

[Qinghua-san, this question should be——]

"Sorry, I don't have time...ask someone else."

Children are always very direct in their thoughts. Qinghua placed all the blame on Xixiao, and she began to resist Xixiao.

The frequency of her responses to Xixiao's questions began to decrease. In most cases, Xixiao would not take the initiative to trouble others. Perhaps, she had noticed that everyone was tired of communicating with notebooks; only when the issues were particularly important, Xixiao would

Have to ask others for help.

"Ha...why didn't Qinghua tell you? It's obvious that such a simple question can be easily answered in sign language, so how could she go so far? She was not like this before..."

"So, Qinghua-san is learning sign language just to show off in front of the teacher. She doesn't really want to be friends with Xixiao-san."

"The guy who bullied classmate Xixiao is really a scumbag... She is obviously already so pitiful."

There were more and more gossips, and gradually evolved into the version of "Qinghua always makes things difficult for Xixiao".

The good-hearted boys upheld the so-called "just heart", stood up for Xixiao, and took revenge on Qinghua.

Qinghua would often find pages torn out of her homework books and textbooks;

Qinghua will find dead insects from the drawer, such as cockroaches, flies, grasshoppers, etc.;

Qinghua's back will be taped with various kinds of notes with ugly words such as "Dead Mother-in-Law";

Eventually, the matter reached the teacher's ears, and he talked to Qinghua.

During the conversation, Qinghua explained her experience and directly applied to the teacher to change seats, but was rejected by the teacher on the grounds that "there are already a lot of negative comments now. If you do this, everyone will think that you are really bullying Xi."

Xiao classmate]

"I will find an opportunity to hold a class meeting to clarify this matter next time. However, if a slap in the face won't make a difference, you should also think about your own problems and whether there are really any actions that make people feel that you are bullying Xi Xiao."

Bullying...Xixiao classmate?

Qinghua came out of the office and saw classmate Xixiao carrying a schoolbag waiting for her at the school gate.

She pursed her lips tightly, with a warm smile on her face just like when she first came to class.

but,

Qinghua ignored Xixiao and walked forward on her own.

Xixiao chased after her and grabbed Qinghua classmate.

This time Xixiao didn't smile, her expression was serious.

【I caused trouble for Qinghua】

Qinghua understood Xixiao's sign language, but she didn't answer.

【sorry】

Xixiao bowed deeply in front of Qinghua.

What is this... Where did you go wrong... Wasn't it true that I was bullying you?

Qinghua suddenly felt nauseous...nausea from the bottom of her heart, and even the contents of her stomach were churning.

[From now on...I won't trouble you anymore...nor will I trouble others...and cause you to be scolded]

[So... shall we make peace?]

Xixiao held Qinghua tightly and was stubborn for a while without letting go.

So... I really really hate you.

Qinghua pushed aside Xixiao's pull, and when Xixiao tried to stop Qinghua again, Qinghua finally took action.

Snapped!

Qinghua slapped Xixiao hard - she didn't know why she was so hard at that time. She was so hard that she knocked the hearing aid off Xixiao's ear with one slap. The hearing aid cut open the blood on her cheek and flowed down.

.

Qinghua gasped for breath. The bullying she had endured in the past period of time flashed back in Qinghua's mind scene by scene. Pain, grievance, sadness, anger. At this moment, all the suppressed emotions burst out.

She had always been strong, but at this moment her eyes filled with tears.

"It's all your fault! If... if you didn't show up, I wouldn't have been targeted by others! Why... why are everyone turning to you! Just because you are pitiful! Just because you are deaf!

"

Why……

Why is this guy...

After being slapped by Qinghua, Xixiao managed to laugh while holding back her tears.

There is a reason why Xixiao is so popular.

She is very cute and kind, she is simply the incarnation of the princess in fairy tales...

There is no comparison with the unpopular self.

She seemed to be doing some sign language to herself, but... Qinghua couldn't see clearly because her vision was all blurred by tears.

She carried her schoolbag and ignored Xixiao's words, sobbing silently as she walked home.

"Of course Qinghua's classmate who hurt Xixiao will never be forgiven. Xixiao's parents found the school the next day to inquire about the situation. And not long after that, Qinghua's classmate was scolded and bullied one after another.

Lingzhong changed schools."

Qinghua's voice sounded very calm, as if she was telling a story that happened to a friend a long time ago.

"So, the whole story is like this... I don't know why I'm telling you this. Maybe it's because I saw you working so hard for Xixiao, and she seems to like you very much, so I thought, maybe I don't want to

Has it destroyed the beautiful image she left in your heart?"

"That, that!"

Lin Huan no longer had time to wonder about the whole incident. He endured it for a while before speaking,

"Xixiao still feels very sorry for you... She told me that it was a mistake that could not be made up for no matter how much she apologized."

"That's it."

Qinghua was stunned for a while, then she rolled up her hair and smiled at Lin Huan, "That does seem... like something she would say."

Qinghua was holding her schoolbag and standing alone at the intersection of the street, waiting for the traffic light.

The current Qinghua is completely different from the description - she is not only a top student, but also very strong in sports. As for her appearance, she is already at the level of a school beauty. If her classmates in the past saw her now, they would definitely scream

It's incredible...

It was only at this time that Lin Huan finally understood... what Qinghua meant by "kindness can also hurt others".
