Ye Xiyuan lowered her head and remained silent, offering no further words or self-defense.
Observing Ye Xiyuan’s deanor, Qian Gung beca increasingly furious.
“Ye Xiyuan, you…”
“Alright, Qian Gung, please keep quiet,” Li Deze interjected abruptly. “It’s truly a tragedy for Ye Xiyuan to have a friend like you. And furthermore, we won’t let today’s incident be brushed aside so easily. Your actions just now amounted to attempted murder. The injuries on Ye Xiyuan’s body stand as clear evidence. We won’t let you escape justice.”
“No, Brother Deze, Gung didn’t do it on purpose,” Ye Xiyuan pleaded, gripping Li Deze’s arm and hastily speaking. “Let’s put an end to this matter as it is, and not pursue it any further.”
“Xiyuan, by doing this, you’re condoning her criminal behavior,” Li Deze furrowed his brows and remarked. “She nearly took your life monts ago, and yet you’re here pleading for her. Just look at her, does she seem like soone who will appreciate your rcy?”
“Brother Deze, this is my own affair, and I’ve declared my decision not to pursue it.” Ye Xiyuan’s tone grew resolute. “I’m the victim, and I have the right to make that call.’
Watching Ye Xiyuan’s deanor, Li Deze couldn’t help but feel exasperated.
“Ye Xiyuan, don’t put on a show here,” Qian Gung glared at Ye Xiyuan. “Don’t think that your past deeds have gone unnoticed. Actions have consequences, and you will face retribution.”
“Todays events won’t end so easily,” Li Deze turned to Qian Gung, speaking firmly. “Even if Xiyuan chooses not to pursue this, it doesn’t an the incident never happened. I will report this to the principal now and let him ensure justice is served. I believe the principal will make a fair decision and will not allow a student with murderous intent to remain here.’
Seeing the boy she cared for treating her this way, Qian Gung felt utterly heartbroken.
“Li Deze, don’t be naive. Do you truly believe that Ye Xiyuan likes you? She rely regards you as a backup plan, yet you devote yourself entirely to her. Is it truly worth it?”
“My personal matters have no relevance to you,” Li Deze looked at Qian Gung with a mixture of disdain, as if he had spotted sothing unsavory. “Furthermore, don’t spew baseless accusations. There is nothing romantic between Xiyuan and . I will continue to cherish her like a sister.”
Although his affection for Ye Xiyuan lingered in his heart, he had vowed, just as he had at Ye Xiyuan’s birthday celebration, to silently protect her without causing her any distress.
With these words, Li Deze took Ye Xiyuan’s hand and began walking toward the principal’s office. He couldn’t let this matter be swept under the rug. Even if he chose not to pursue legal consequences against Qian Gung, he was determined to ensure she was expelled from the school. Otherwise, they would share the sa campus, and he had no idea when Qian Gung might snap and pose a threat to Ye Xiyuan again.
“You will co to regret this, Li Deze. I promise you that. Ye Xiyuan is not as simple as she seems.”
Watching Li Deze depart, Qian Gung sobbed loudly.
“Is it worth it?” Just then, a figure appeared before Qian Gung. “For the sake of Li Deze, you and Ye Xiyuan have played a dangerous ga, and now the tables have turned. Do you genuinely believe it’s all worth it?”
“Xuyan?” Qian Gung raised her head and saw Ouyang Xuyan standing before her. She imdiately reached out and grasped his sleeve, urgently pleading, “You must help . You’re the only one left who can. No one else is willing to support .”
As in countless previous instances, she turned to Ouyang Xuyan for assistance.
She knew all too well that even if the entire world abandoned her, Ouyang Xuvan would remain steadfastly by her side.
Hearing Qian Gungs plea, Ouyang Xuyan’s eyes betrayed a hint of pain. “Then how do you wish for to help you?”
At this mont, he recalled the words Ye Lengan had once spoken. It seed that he had consistently played the role of a sycophant in front of Qian Gurneng. Now, he couldn’t help but reflect upon himself. Had everything he sacrificed for her truly been worthwhile? For Qian Gung, he had given so much.. Was it ti to cease?
