Upon hearing Ye Xiyuan’s words, those around them imdiately began to praise her.
“Xiyuan, you’re just too kind-hearted to forgive soone like Qian Gung.”
“Indeed! But, Xiyuan, even if you’re kind-hearted, it’s important who you’re kind to! Soone like Qian Gung isn’t deserving of your kindness.”
“Xiyuan, can you quickly explain for ?” Qian Gung, who was nearby, was already feeling flustered. “Clearly, it was you…”
Before she could finish her sentence, Ye Xiyuan interrupted her.
“Gung, let’s talk outside!” Fearing that Qian Gurneng might say sothing irreversible, Ye Xiyuan hastily took Qian Gungs hand and said, “There are too many people here.”
Seeing Qian Gung’s current state, Ye Xiyuan worried that she might spill everything. If that happened, all the preparations she had made earlier would be in vain.
Qian Gung appeared as if she wanted to say more, but she was led out of the classroom by Ye Xiyuan.
The students left behind, observing the departure of the two, felt puzzled. At the sa ti, a strange sensation stirred within them, as if there were so secret between the two. It was at this mont that they couldn’t help but recall the events that had unfolded at the banquet.
It wasn’t until they reached a quiet corner of the campus that Ye Xiyuan released Qian Gungs hand.
She then made an effort to contain her inner anger and looked at Qian Gung. “Gung, didn’t we agree not to get too close in school for the ti being?”
“Xiyuan, why didn’t you speak up for back there?” Qian Gung didn’t directly answer Ye Xiyuan but countered, “Aren’t we good friends? When 1 was being wrongly accused, you just stood by?”
“No, Gung, didn’t we discuss this before?” Sensing Qian Gungs discontent, Ye Xiyuan’s voice softened slightly. “If we get too close now, people might suspect that we conspired to fra Ye Leng’an. That’s why she managed to turn the situation around. Wouldn’t everything we’ve done be in vain?”
“But right now, I’m the one suffering, not you.” Qian Gungs reaction was sowhat intense. She appeared particularly aggrieved at this mont. “You’re still seen as a good person by everyone, but I’ve beco a thief in their eyes.
“Gung, are you blaming ?” Ye Xiyuan seed unjustly accused. “Aren’t we good friends? How could you say that?”
“Xiyuan, do you truly consider a good friend?” Qian Gung asked directly. “If you really see as a good friend, why did you let everyone falsely accuse ?”
Impatience flickered in Ye Xiyuan’s eyes, but she maintained a sincere expression. “Gung, if I didn’t view you as a good friend, why would 1 constantly speak highly of you in front of Brother Deze?”
She knew exactly where Qian Gungs weakness lay. It was her affection for Li Deze. Unfortunately, things weren’t going as Qian Gung hoped. The situation with Nangong Xuyao had already failed. While she still intended to pursue other eligible bachelors among the four prominent families, Li Deze remained a valuable backup option until a better prospect erged. At this mont, she had no intention of losing this backup.
Her current words were rely ant to temporarily appease Qian Gung. She had no idea why Qian Gung was acting so recklessly today. If she truly revealed everything, her image would be tarnished.
“Li Deze?” Qian Gungs eyes brightened at the ntion of his na. “Did you really speak well of in front of Li Deze? What about this ti? Does he know that I’ve been falsely accused?”
“Of course!” Ye Xiyuan fibbed with wide-open eyes. “As soon as this matter was over, I promptly explained everything to Brother Deze. He knows that you were wrongly accused and that Ye Lengan frad you.”
“Really?” Qian Gungs eyes displayed surprise, but soon she grew suspicious. “Are you trying to deceive ?”
“Gung, do you see that way?” Ye Xiyuan appeared wronged.. “I’ve been trying to bring you two together, and yet you think of like this!”
