Upon hearing Ye Xiyuan’s words, those around them immediately began to praise her.

“Xiyuan, you’re just too kind-hearted to forgive someone like Qian Gumeng.”

“Indeed! But, Xiyuan, even if you’re kind-hearted, it’s important who you’re kind to! Someone like Qian Gumeng isn’t deserving of your kindness.”

“Xiyuan, can you quickly explain for me?” Qian Gumeng, who was nearby, was already feeling flustered. “Clearly, it was you…”

Before she could finish her sentence, Ye Xiyuan interrupted her.

“Gumeng, let’s talk outside!” Fearing that Qian Gurneng might say something irreversible, Ye Xiyuan hastily took Qian Gumengs hand and said, “There are too many people here.”

Seeing Qian Gumeng’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 Gumeng 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 same time, a strange sensation stirred within them, as if there were some secret between the two. It was at this moment 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 Gumengs hand.

She then made an effort to contain her inner anger and looked at Qian Gumeng. “Gumeng, didn’t we agree not to get too close in school for the time being?”

“Xiyuan, why didn’t you speak up for me back there?” Qian Gumeng didn’t directly answer Ye Xiyuan but countered, “Aren’t we good friends? When 1 was being wrongly accused, you just stood by?”

“No, Gumeng, didn’t we discuss this before?” Sensing Qian Gumengs discontent, Ye Xiyuan’s voice softened slightly. “If we get too close now, people might suspect that we conspired to frame 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 Gumengs reaction was somewhat intense. She appeared particularly aggrieved at this moment. “You’re still seen as a good person by everyone, but I’ve become a thief in their eyes.

“Gumeng, are you blaming me?” Ye Xiyuan seemed unjustly accused. “Aren’t we good friends? How could you say that?”

“Xiyuan, do you truly consider me a good friend?” Qian Gumeng asked directly. “If you really see me as a good friend, why did you let everyone falsely accuse me?”

Impatience flickered in Ye Xiyuan’s eyes, but she maintained a sincere expression. “Gumeng, 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 Gumengs weakness lay. It was her affection for Li Deze. Unfortunately, things weren’t going as Qian Gumeng 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 emerged. At this moment, she had no intention of losing this backup.

Her current words were merely meant to temporarily appease Qian Gumeng. She had no idea why Qian Gumeng was acting so recklessly today. If she truly revealed everything, her image would be tarnished.

“Li Deze?” Qian Gumengs eyes brightened at the mention of his name. “Did you really speak well of me in front of Li Deze? What about this time? 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 framed you.”

“Really?” Qian Gumengs eyes displayed surprise, but soon she grew suspicious. “Are you trying to deceive me?”

“Gumeng, do you see me that way?” Ye Xiyuan appeared wronged.. “I’ve been trying to bring you two together, and yet you think of me like this!”
