If it had been in the past, Qian Gumeng would have felt self-blame and immediately apologized to Ye Xiyuan. But now, she harbored suspicions about Ye Xiyuan. So, she straightforwardly said, Since what youre saying is true, when can I meet Li Deze? Didnt you mention wanting to set us up? If thats the case, we should spend some time together!

Upon hearing Qian Gumengs request, Ye Xiyuans body stiffened, and she struggled to maintain her expression. Gumeng, Brother Deze is usually quite busy, so if we want to meet, wed need to schedule a suitable time, and we

Before Ye Xiyuan could finish her sentence, Qian Gumeng interrupted her, saying, Dont use such words to evade my questions. Xiyuan, tell me honestly, have you been using me all along?

Gumeng, have you perhaps heard someone trying to sow discord between us? Ye Xiyuan quickly offered an explanation. Were good friends. Why would

I use you?

If thats not the case, then why are you making me take the blame for this situation? Qian Gumengs emotions were slipping out of her control as she questioned, Its not just this time, even during the last qualifier. That matter clearly had nothing to do with me, but I ended up facing the consequences. Ye Xiyuan, why am I always the one who gets hurt? Is it just because Im your good friend?

Gumeng, l Ye Xiyuan didnt know what to say. Take a moment to calm down. Otherwise, we wont be able to have a productive conversation.

l dont need to calm down right now. Qian Gumengs gaze, when fixed on Ye Xiyuan, carried a hint of resentment she couldnt conceal. l want to hear your explanation now. Otherwise, you can go explain to our cla.s.smates that I didnt steal that necklace.

Sorry, Gumeng, but I truly have no choice. Ye Xiyuan wore a troubled expression. Whats the point of me saying these things now? Both of us will be criticized. Is that the outcome you want?

Her patience with Qian Gumeng had reached its limit. It appeared she had been too lenient. Qian Gumeng should have been cast aside long ago, and now the blade was pointed squarely at her.

Just at that moment, the mechanical voice of the system suddenly sounded, Host, please be aware that Li Deze is on his way here.

Receiving the systems alert, Ye Xiyuan immediately formulated a plan. Since Qian Gumeng was no longer under her control, it was time to let her go. This was a perfect opportunity. With the right execution, no one at school would believe Qian Gumengs words.

With this in mind, Ye Xiyuans expression transformed completely. Her formerly gentle countenance was now adorned with a malevolent smile. Qian Gumeng, I initially didnt want to have a falling out with you, but it seems you are truly shameless! So, Ill tell you straight. Yes, Ive been using you all along.

How does that make you feel now that you know the truth?

Even though she had prepared herself mentally, Qian Gumeng was still somewhat taken aback by Ye Xiyuans abrupt change in demeanor. Her face displayed disbelief. Ye Xiyuan, you

How does it feel? Quite shocking, isnt it? The sarcasm on Ye Xiyuans face became more p.r.o.nounced. Didnt you suspect as much already, Qian Gumeng? If it werent for your naivety and gullibility, do you think I would have willingly made myself your so-called good friend?

Ye Xiyuan, arent you afraid Ill expose your true nature to everyone? Qian Gumeng spoke with resentment. By then, do you think our cla.s.smates will still idolize you as they do now?

If you want to do that, go ahead! Ye Xiyuan responded indifferently. Youre now a knovvn thief, while Im about to become the Nangong familys adoptive daughter.. Tell me, will people believe your words or mine?
