I was exposed for adding my female boss to my group of female friends.

Lu Qianzi shook her head secretly.

I don’t know if it’s just my imagination, but this watch looks a bit out of place in Cha Xiaoming’s hands, as if it doesn’t belong to him at all.

But when Chen Ya showed it to her on her wrist, it was at just the right moment.

Although she said at the time that the other watch, the Dreamy Starry Sky watch, was prettier, this extremely luxurious watch was also absolutely beautiful. It's just that she didn't like this overly extravagant style.

It's strange, really. Cha Xiaoming is a native of Beijing, but Chen Ya, who came from the countryside, is more suited to this watch.

A group of people watched Cha Xiaoming try on the product with great interest, crowding around him. When the student association president, senior student Qin Jinna, entered and saw the group gathered, she said:

"Stop making noise, move aside, don't block the way and move things."

A student told Qin Jinna, "Senior, Lu Qianzi brought a watch over, it's super pretty."

Qin Jinna walked over, glanced at Cha Xiaoming's wrist, and said, "This watch is very expensive. You guys are really bold to take it out like this."

Zhao Anqi said, "It's okay, senior. Watches are meant to be worn, right? Cha Xiaoming isn't stupid. He won't break it."

Qin Jinna said to the boys behind her, "The new stage has arrived. Can you help me move it?"

The person who was called on followed the senior student dejectedly. The girl who had taken the photo of Cha Xiaoming gave him a peace sign and said, "I'll send you a picture later."

Cha Xiaoming gave her an OK sign.

He's already thinking about what caption to post on his WeChat Moments today.

A boy nearby leaned over and whispered to Lu Qianzi, "Qianzi, can I wear it too? I'm thinking of buying a watch and want to try it on."

In fact, when everyone saw that Cha Xiaoming had posted some content on his WeChat Moments, they were a little envious and wanted to take some pictures wearing it too.

Before Lu Qianzi could speak, Zhao Anqi immediately said, "Who do you think you are, wanting to buy a watch? You can't afford this one, Qianzi, you know? Don't even try it on. Right, Qianzi?"

The boy waved his hand: "Go away, go away, this is none of your business. Don't try to sow discord between me and Qianzi. Qianzi, you'll stand up for me, right?"

Lu Qianzi pressed her temples and said, "No, after trying this one, you want to try that one too. I've already said this watch isn't mine, it's not mine. It shouldn't be allowed to be tried on by anyone in the first place. It's very impolite to others, and it's not about the money."

Zhao Anqi scoffed, "Yes, yes, it's not about the money. Besides, this watch is very valuable."

She held a grudge against Lu Qianzi for what she had said earlier and kept making sarcastic remarks. Lu Qianzi finally couldn't hold back any longer and said with a hint of annoyance:

"Zhao Anqi, why do you keep focusing on one point? I don't like the way you talk."

Zhao Anqi gave a soft "humph," unable to say anything more, and reached out to Cha Xiaoming, saying:

"Alright, take the watch off and give it back to Qianzi, or she'll have a heart attack later."

Cha Xiaoming took off his watch and handed it to Lu Anqi, then said to Lu Qianzi:

"Qianzi, don't listen to Anqi's gossip. That's just how she is. She likes to talk, but she's not a bad person at heart."

Lu Qianzi glanced at Zhao Anqi's expression and chuckled.

Two boys who were holding onto the podium walked over and shouted, "Make way, make way!"

Zhao Anqi was looking at the structure and movement of the watch in the sunlight, a little reluctant to return it to Lu Qianzi, when two boys came over. One of the boys brushed against her, startling her.

"How annoying."

She pushed the boy, and then heard a "click" sound on her hand. She looked down and her breath caught in her throat for a moment.

Cha Xiaoming sat down in front of Lu Qianzi and asked, "Qianzi, whose watch is this? Is it your dad's?"

“No,” Lu Qianzi shook her head, “My dad can’t wear such a nice watch. It belongs to a relative of mine.”

"What kind of relationship are you with them?"

"He's kind of like my brother."

Lu Qianzi didn't want to explain further, and turned to Zhao Anqi, saying, "Give it back to me."

Zhao Anqi looked a bit strange, standing there motionless for a long time. Lu Qianzi urged, "Zhao Anqi, what's wrong?"

The boy sitting opposite Zhao Anqi suddenly gasped, his eyes widening. Zhao Anqi quickly pulled a handkerchief from her pocket, wrapped it around her watch, and returned it to Lu Qianzi.

"I'll give it back to you."

Lu Qianzi had a bad feeling at that time.

Zhao Anqi always handles watches with her bare hands, so why did she remember to use a handkerchief when returning the watch? There's definitely something fishy going on.

When she opened the handkerchief, her heart skipped a beat, and she felt a rush of heat to her head, making her dizzy.

For some reason, the watch hands have stopped, and upon closer inspection of the watch crystal, there is a small, semi-transparent pit.

She was certain that it wasn't like this when it was taken over.

"Zhao Anqi!"

Lu Qianzi's voice startled everyone in the classroom, and everyone's eyes turned to look at her.

Tears welled in her eyes as she shouted at Zhao Anqi, "What did you do to this watch? How did you break it?"

Lu Qianzi felt completely bewildered.

Zhao Anqi turned around, her eyes widening slightly: "What? It's broken? How is it broken? Let me see?"

Lu Qianzi shook off her hand and said, "I noticed you were acting strange just now, and you're still pretending! If you didn't break it, who did?"

Zhao Anqi blushed: "I didn't!"

Cha Xiaoming immediately moved far away.

The watch had just been taken off his wrist, as if he was afraid of being implicated in the matter.

Hearing that something had happened, Qin Jinna walked over and asked with a serious expression, "What's wrong, Qianzi? What happened?"

Lu Qianzi said in a tearful voice:

"Zhao Anqi broke the watch!"

Zhao Anqi's voice trembled as she said, "How could it be that I broke it? Did you see it?"

"Zhao Anqi! Not only did you break it, but you're trying to deny it? The watch was in your hand just now, who else could have broken it if not you?"

Zhao Anqi, with her neck held high, said, "I didn't break it. I returned it to you. Did you make a mistake somewhere?"

Qin Jinna glanced at the two of them and said, "Don't argue, calm down and tell me what happened."

Zhao Anqi spoke first: "It was fine when I held it, but it broke after I gave it back to her. How would I know what happened?"

"You! How could you tell such a despicable lie?" Lu Qianzi's teeth chattered, and she was so angry that she could hardly speak.

The boy sitting next to Zhao Anqi said, "I saw that the watch stopped working when Zhao Anqi held it in her hand. It wasn't broken after she returned it to Lu Qianzi."

The girl next to Lu Qianzi also said, "Yes, she even deliberately wrapped it with a handkerchief, thinking that way she wouldn't be noticed."

Someone else said, "The boys were moving the stage just now, and Zhao Anqi pushed them. I guess she lost her grip and her watch got caught on the table."

Qin Jinna looked at Zhao Anqi with a chilling gaze: "Is that how it is?"

Zhao Anqi's face flushed red and then turned pale, before she finally said, "So what if I broke it? I didn't do it on purpose."

"Does it mean we don't have to pay compensation if it wasn't intentional?" Lu Qianzi said loudly.

The more she thinks about it, the more frightened she becomes.

Chen Ya somehow got his hands on this watch. If it's really rented, as he claims, what should we do?

Who can afford to pay for a watch worth over 700 million?

Qin Jinna thought for a moment and said, "Okay, you two stop arguing. I'll call the teacher and ask him how to handle this."

Zhao Anqi sat there, and suddenly tears started falling.

"Why are you crying? It's clearly your own fault. I told you not to play with it like that, but you didn't listen."

A girl came over to comfort Zhao Anqi, then turned to Lu Qianzi and said:

"Qianzi, say less. Anqi didn't mean it."

Zhao Anqi cried and said, "Yes, I didn't want it to be like this. Besides, your watch is expensive. I can just compensate you."

……

"I'm riding my beloved little motorcycle..."

Chen Ya got out of the car and parked Principal Yang's electric car downstairs in front of the teaching building.

He found the place based on Lu Qianzi's location, and while sitting in his car, he sent Lu Qianzi a text message:

"I've arrived, can I leave now?"

At this moment, Lu Qianzi was upstairs, almost driven crazy by Zhao Anqi.

……

"what happened?"

The club's advisor, Zhang Xinlei, walked into the classroom with a frown, looked around at everyone, and asked.

After Qin Jinna finished telling him what had happened, his brows furrowed even more.

"Let me see how it got broken."

Lu Qianzi handed him the watch, and he looked at it carefully, saying, "There's nothing unusual about it."

Lu Qianzi said, "The watch isn't moving."

"It seems there's a slight dent here, but it can be repaired," Zhang Xinlei said.

Lu Qianzi said, "This watch is very expensive, and it will cost a lot of money to repair it."

“Some watches are very expensive, and people wear them just to save face,” Zhang Xinlei said. “In that case, Zhao Anqi, you should apologize to Lu Qianzi. Classmates shouldn’t let things like this ruin their relationship.”

Zhao Anqi stammered to Lu Qianzi, "Qianzi, I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to."

Lu Qianzi's face was ashen. She didn't want to forgive.

“Take it to a watch shop to get it repaired. Just pay her whatever it costs,” Zhang Xinlei said. “Qianzi, when you go to get it repaired, keep the receipt. You can pay her whatever it costs.”

"Teacher, may I speak to you in private?"

Zhao Anqi pulled Zhang Xinlei aside and whispered something to him. Zhang Xinlei looked somewhat surprised.

"The students who moved the tables earlier, as well as Cha Xiaoming and Lu Qianzi, come here for a moment."

Cha Xiaoming suddenly felt uneasy. The other two boys walked over, looking bewildered.

Zhang Xinlei pointed at Zhao Anqi and said, "Tell them yourself."

Zhao Anqi said, "Cha Xiaoming, I touched her watch just now so you could try it on. I think you should also bear some responsibility, right? Also, the watch was damaged by the table you moved, so you also bear some responsibility. I don't think I should be the only one to pay for it."

Cha Xiaoming stared wide-eyed in disbelief and exclaimed:

"Weren't you picking out a gift for your boyfriend? I was dragged here to be a model by you, and I don't want to wear it, so why should I pay for it!"

Another boy who was moving the table also protested:

"What does this have to do with us? If you weren't blocking the way, would you have gotten hurt? The way you pushed me almost made me throw my back out."

Zhao Anqi shrugged and said, "Well, I'm not going to pay for everything anyway. Qianzi, you can talk to them yourself."

Cha Xiaoming looked at Lu Qianzi with a hint of anger: "Qianzi, do you want us to compensate you?"

Lu Qianzi was a little confused. How did it suddenly turn into a conflict between her and someone else?

Zhang Xinlei found this matter quite troublesome, and said with his arms crossed:

"How about this, Qianzi, you go get the watch repaired first. It might not cost much. Once the amount is determined, we can discuss the division of compensation."

Zhao Anqi also said, "Yes, and didn't you just buy this watch today? Maybe you can return or exchange it."

"How could you do this?" Lu Qianzi's eyes widened.

At that moment, someone peeked out from the doorway and scanned the classroom.

He was wearing Adidas clothes, but Warrior shoes on his feet. When he saw Qianzi, he waved to her.

When Lu Qianzi saw Chen Ya, she felt like she had found a savior, but she also felt so guilty that her heart ached.

"Chen... Chen Ya..." Lu Qianzi ran over and wiped away her tears. "I'm sorry!"

"what happened?"

Lu Qianzi stammered out what had happened, and Chen Ya's face turned cold upon hearing it.

This is the expression that Lu Qianzi fears the most.
