Yun Xi’s nonchalant deanor baffled Yang Lu.
“No way? That woman is really that vicious? Are you okay?”
“I’m okay! Don’t worry.”
Yang Lu frowned. Her gut feelings told her that sothing was wrong.
“But doesn’t she understand the relationship between and you? Yet she asked to spy on you? Is she in her right mind?”
“It’s not that she isn’t in her right mind, but rather that she wants to use you as her bait...”
She didn’t explain what she ant, but smiled and said, “She ca to you on purpose to cause strife between us.”
“You an she wasn’t worried that I’d tell you?”
“On the contrary, her true motive was for you to tell on her. So would think that by your telling on her, if I was on my guard, I might think it was a trap and choose not to believe you. And this sort of strife could ruin the relationship between us. Nobody would be stupid enough to actually say this to a person, so if you did, the person probably wouldn’t believe you and think that you were doing it on purpose, so they could swoop in and set a trap for later on.”
“But I didn’t lie, she really asked , and I didn’t agree. How could I do that to you?”
Yang Lu vaguely understood the aning of Yun Xi’s words. The fact that the woman had co to her, no matter what she’d said or done, was enough to make so people suspicious.
She wouldn’t even need to do anything to make the two of them suspect each other.
D*mn it! She’d been trying to fra her.
“I know, I believe you, I’m not blind, and I can tell reality from falsehoods. If I didn’t believe you, I wouldn’t be telling you this. You have to be more cautious in the future, and you should think more deeply about such matters. Not everyone is as smart as I am.”
“I...I know...”
She hadn’t really begun to understand the evils of humanity, and she didn’t have very much experience as she hadn’t stepped out into society yet.
When Yun Xi explained what had occurred, she felt that she had been really naive.
“What are you going to do? She seed to be looking for you...”
“I will do nothing. Since she ca to see you, it ans that she has investigated . In our class, who else do you think might beco her private eye?”
As Yun Xi said this, Yang Lu grasped the aning of her words and turned her head directly to look in Liang Xinyi’s direction.
“So, since she hasn’t made any moves yet, let’s not get too nervous.”
Yun Xi gazed at Yang Lu’s innocent countenance and sighed. “Yang Lu, you and the class leader...”
Upon hearing Li Sinuo ntioned, Yang Lu looked nervous. She’d already spilled all the beans about the framing incident.
After Yun Xi had analyzed it for her, she’d realized that she had also beco the class leader’s pawn to fra Yun Xi.
After being used by two people, she blad herself for being so stupid. How could she have been stupid enough to be friends with a phony person such as Li Sinuo.
“I went to her and talked to her about it. I was already being very nice by not ratting her out. From now on, she and I won’t cross paths. I won’t be friends with a person like her.”
Yun Xi smiled and asked, “Do you think that I’m trying to cause a rift between the two of you?”
Soone as naive as Yang Lu was really vulnerable to being used by others.
Yang Lu didn’t have an evil heart and was actually quite straightforward once one got to know her. Her passionate disposition was quite endearing.
“I’m not stupid. I can tell right from wrong. Why would you be friends with and tutor if you still held a grudge? Li Sinuo is prideful and haughty, so she approached just to use , and I was dumb enough to fall for it. It’s bad enough that I fell for it once, but if I didn’t learn my lesson that would be truly dumb.”
Yang Lu was intelligent and kindhearted. She took everything Yun Xi had said to her to heart.
It was only after she’d analyzed the framing incident that she gradually began to understand the complexity of human nature.
She had been too naive and gullible, and she hadn’t been able to hold her own against their sches at all.
