Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

When the time comes, all I need to do is say that youre overreacting out of embarra.s.sment, fabricating stories in an attempt to defame me. After all, do you have any evidence?

Looking at Ye Xiyuan right in front of her, Qian Gumeng felt like she was facing a complete stranger. She never expected that her so-called good friend had such a true face.

As if finding it not thrilling enough, the malicious smile on Ye Xiyuans face grew even brighter. And theres more! Did you really think 1 would speak well of you in front of Li Deze? Thats nothing short of a pipe dream. I actually told Li Deze that you have a bad temper, poor social skills, and act recklessly. Moreover, I didnt even bother to defend you this time, So, now, in Li Dezes eyes, youre nothing but a thief.

At this point, Ye Xiyuan leaned in close to Qian Gumengs ear, speaking in a low voice, Do you know? Right now, Li Deze is absolutely repulsed by you.

Stop, dont say any more,

Whether it was due to the intense emotions or not, Qian Gumengs face displayed pure madness. She didnt hold back; she just pushed Ye Xiyuan to the ground and, without hesitation, straddled her. She reached out and firmly gripped Ye Xiyuans neck while shouting, Ye Xiyuan, you b*tch, Im going to kill you.

Surprisingly, Ye Xiyuan made no effort to resist this treatment. She even wore a smile that seemed victorious.

This smile caused Qian Gumeng, who was acting somewhat deranged at the moment, to suddenly regain her senses for a fleeting moment. She hadnt figured out why when she was abruptly pulled away by a powerful force and unceremoniously shoved onto the ground.

The force was considerable, and it showed no mercy. She instinctively extended her hand to cus.h.i.+on her fall, but her palm stung from sc.r.a.ping against the sharp stones on the ground.

However, as she gazed upon the person who had pushed her, she felt that the pain in her heart was a hundred times more intense than the pain in her palm. This person was none other than Li Deze.

Li Deze didnt spare a glance for Qian Gumeng. In his eyes and heart, there was only Ye Xiyuan. He promptly helped Ye Xiyuan up from the ground and inquired with deep concern, Xiyuan, are you okay? Youre fine, right?

Just moments ago, when he had gone to look for Ye Xiyuan in the cla.s.sroom, he had heard students say that Ye Xiyuan and Qian Gumeng had left.

Furthermore, he had heard that Qian Gumeng seemed emotionally agitated.

Upon learning of these events, he rushed over, worried that if the two couldnt reconcile and Qian Gumeng started causing trouble, it would be Ye Xiyuan who would suffer.

However, he hadnt expected to encounter this scene upon arrival. Without any hesitation, he immediately separated Qian Gumeng from Ye Xiyuan.

Cough, cough, cough! Ye Xiyuan clutched her chest, coughing a few times.

After taking several deep breaths, she mustered a weak smile as she spoke to

Li Deze, Brother Deze, Im okay. Dont worry.

At this moment, Ye Xiyuan looked pallid, covered in dust, with disheveled hair. But what was most shocking were the two crimson handprints on her neck.

As Li Deze looked at Qian Gumeng with disgust in his eyes, he said with anger, Qian Gumeng, youve gone too far. You had already stolen Xiyuans necklace before, and she had forgiven you. Now, youre actually attempting to kill her?

Youre truly heartless.

Qian Gumeng was extremely anxious to be criticized by the boy she liked. She immediately got up and was about to defend herself, No, l It was her

But in her haste, her words became incoherent. The more she tried to explain, the less clear it became.

Brother Deze, please dont blame Gumeng. Ye Xiyuan held Li Deze!s hand and pleaded, She didnt mean it. Its just that shes been through a lot recently, which has caused her to act this way.

Xiyuan, after shes treated you like this, why are you still speaking up for her? Li Deze frowned in disagreement. Its precisely because youve been so lenient with her that shes become even more audacious.

Ye Xiyuan, you cant pretend to be nice here. Seeing how quickly Ye Xiyuan was practicing, Qian Gumeng couldnt help but exclaim, Just a moment ago, you werent like this. What kind of act are you putting on now?

Gumeng, please calm down. Ye Xiyuan looked at Qian Gumeng with a troubled expression. l understand that what happened at the banquet deeply affected you. It was a moment of confusion, and I dont hold it against you. But you cant expect me to lie to everyone, saying that I lent you the necklace just because of this.

At this point, Ye Xiyuans expression turned somewhat sorrowful. You know how important that necklace is to me. I would never lend it so casually.

Li Deze immediately understood the situation. He looked at Qian Gumeng with disdain, saying, Its one thing for you to be greedy, but its another to shamelessly ask Xiyuan to lie for you. Youre beyond redemption. To think that earlier, Xiyuan told me that you were just momentarily confused and had no ill intentions. Now it seems that youre truly unrepentant.

Its not like that. Really, its not like that. Hearing the words of the person she liked, Qian Gumeng felt her heart ache to the point where she could barely breathe. She pointed at Ye Xiyuan and said, l didnt steal that necklace. It was Ye Xiyuan. She wanted to frame Ye Lengan, so she asked for my help. But I dont know why the necklace ended up in my bag. I truly didnt steal that necklace.

Gumeng, how could you say such a thing? Ye Xiyuan appeared deeply provoked. Ive been looking out for you all along. Why are you accusing me like this?

Ye Xiyuan, it was all your idea. Why did you make me take the blame in the end? As Qian Gumeng looked at Ye Xiyuan, her eyes were filled with hatred.

In the end, youre still pretending to be the good person here.

If she could, she truly wanted to approach Ye Xiyuan and tear away all the pretense from her face. She had always thought that she and Ye Xiyuan were good friends who were helping each other. But in the end, she realized that she was nothing more than a tool Ye Xiyuan had used to deal with Ye Lengan..
