At this thought, Li Qingxue quickly shook her head.
"What's wrong?" Lin Wanning asked softly when she noticed Li Qingxue suddenly shaking her head.
"Nothing." Li Qingxue suddenly looked up at Lin Wanning with a smile, pinching her cheek. "You’re so naughty."
Lin Wanning blinked, struggling to follow Li Qingxue’s train of thought.
But at least she now knew there was definitely sothing between Shen ngjie and Ye Liangchen. She’d have to tell her brother about it later.
Ye Liangchen was such a stupid and awful person, and that Shen ngjie—the way she looked at her brother was downright disgusting...
Seeing Lin Wanning’s puzzled expression, Li Qingxue found it even more amusing. The feeling of being the only one who knew a secret was just too satisfying.
She still had no idea that Li Qingxue already knew about what she and Long Aotian had done.
Hmph!
Long Aotian, you’re in for it now—how dare you betray Hu Yuying behind her back?
Hmph! And you even had the nerve to bully before. This ti, I’ll make sure to step on your face and force you to lick my shoes!
Wait, no—this is about getting revenge for Hu Yuying. I’ll definitely stomp on him a few extra tis!
Suddenly, her forehead was poked.
Snapping out of her thoughts, Li Qingxue saw Lin Wanning prodding her with a finger.
"What’s with that silly grin?"
Lin Wanning was baffled. Just a mont ago, she was fine, and now she was spacing out and giggling to herself?
Li Qingxue looked at Lin Wanning and snorted. Silly woman, I’ve already got your little secret figured out.
Taking a deep breath, she crossed her arms and gave Lin Wanning a smug look. "I’m thirsty. Buy so fruit tea."
Seeing Li Qingxue’s inexplicably haughty expression, Lin Wanning smirked. "Oh, so you want fruit tea now? And you just called naughty, didn’t you...?"
She imdiately started tickling Li Qingxue. "Let’s see if you say it again! Say it again, will you?"
Li Qingxue huffed indignantly. Even though she knew Lin Wanning’s secret, this fake friend still dared to attack her? Clearly, she needed to teach her a lesson.
In the end, Li Qingxue ca out on top.
After all, Lin Wanning’s energy had been thoroughly drained not long ago, so she was no match for Li Qingxue.
"Ah, I give up! I’ll buy you fruit tea, okay? I’ll go get it right now—just spare , please...!"
Seeing Lin Wanning surrender, Li Qingxue finally let her go, straightening up with her hands on her hips, feeling incredibly proud of herself.
Still catching her breath from the tickling, Lin Wanning took Li Qingxue around the area.
They didn’t just buy fruit tea—they also grabbed so snacks.
"Don’t go back tonight." Since it was Friday and the next day was a holiday, Lin Wanning made the suggestion.
Li Qingxue, munching on snacks and sipping her tea, nodded in agreent.
Then, her eyes sparkled mischievously as she pointed at a nearby hotel. "Let’s stay there."
At the sight of that hotel, Lin Wanning instinctively replied, "That one’s not good. Let’s find another place."
Watching Lin Wanning’s brief panic, Li Qingxue found it way too entertaining.
Playing dumb, she asked, "Have you stayed there before? How do you know it’s bad?"
Lin Wanning froze, unsure how to answer.
The music school was right next door—she couldn’t exactly say she’d stayed there because she didn’t like the dorms, could she?
As Li Qingxue started heading toward the hotel, Lin Wanning panicked.
She’d just checked in there with Long Aotian. The front desk staff knew her—if they went now, Li Qingxue might find out sothing.
Finally, her face flushed red as she blurted out, "I—I’ve been there with him before, so I know it’s not good."
"Him?" Li Qingxue raised an eyebrow, smirking. "Your boyfriend?"
Lin Wanning hesitated before shaking her head. "N-not yet..."
Honestly, Li Qingxue was a little surprised by that answer. The source of thɪs content is novel★fire
She’d expected Lin Wanning to use "boyfriend" as an excuse, but she didn’t...
Was it because Long Aotian was Hu Yuying’s boyfriend?
But she’d already betrayed Hu Yuying with him...
Seeing her conflicted expression, Li Qingxue chuckled softly. "Fine, let’s find another hotel then."
But Lin Wanning didn’t move, staying silent instead.
Li Qingxue thought she might have taken the joke too far.
Just as she was about to lighten the mood, Lin Wanning spoke first.
"Do you think I’m a bad person?"
Li Qingxue paused. "Why would you say that?"
A strained smile crossed Lin Wanning’s usually cool face. Recalling her brother’s words, her voice grew heavy. "I did sothing wrong, but I don’t regret it. I’m just... scared of losing all of you as friends."
Her brother couldn’t bear to keep lying to Hu Yuying anymore. He wanted to confess, to take all the bla himself.
But how could she let him? The mistake had been hers from the start—she couldn’t let him shoulder the guilt that wasn’t his.
She’d already made up her mind. If he confessed, she’d tell the truth—that she was the one who seduced him, that she forced him into it...
It was stolen happiness, after all. Just knowing he’d once cared for her was enough.
But in the end, there’d be nothing left—no fond mories, no sweetness.
A sword hung over her head, and she didn’t know when it would fall.
"It’s fine. Let’s go. Do you want to take a bath tonight? I’ll go with you," Lin Wanning said with a smile.
"Then I’ll scrub your back."
"Ew—" Lin Wanning fake-gagged. "No way. You’d just take the chance to grope ."
"You’re rejecting ? Well, now I’m definitely scrubbing you!"
They started playfully bickering again.
"Should we call Hu Yuying to join us?" Lin Wanning suggested. "It’s been so long since we all hung out. I miss it."
"Yeah, it’s been two weeks. She really should make ti for us," Li Qingxue agreed, pulling out her phone. "Want to call her?"
"Aren’t you afraid my brother will get jealous?"
"Long Aotian isn’t that petty, is he? Would he really be jealous over girl ti?"
"You’re not even a woman yet."
"Who knows?" Li Qingxue grinned mischievously. Once she’d had a taste of Long Aotian, she’d beco one.
Hmph! Then she’d punish him properly for betraying Hu Yuying!
She’d step on him while washing him!
Hehe, I’m such a genius...
