Ye Xiyuan lowered her head and remained silent, offering no further words or self-defense.

Observing Ye Xiyuans demeanor, Qian Gumeng became increasingly furious.

Ye Xiyuan, you

Alright, Qian Gumeng, please keep quiet, Li Deze interjected abruptly. Its truly a tragedy for Ye Xiyuan to have a friend like you. And furthermore, we wont let todays incident be brushed aside so easily. Your actions just now amounted to attempted murder. The injuries on Ye Xiyuans body stand as clear evidence. We wont let you escape justice.

No, Brother Deze, Gumeng didnt do it on purpose, Ye Xiyuan pleaded, gripping Li Dezes arm and hastily speaking. Lets put an end to this matter as it is, and not pursue it any further.

Xiyuan, by doing this, youre condoning her criminal behavior, Li Deze furrowed his brows and remarked. She nearly took your life moments ago, and yet youre here pleading for her. Just look at her, does she seem like someone who will appreciate your mercy?

Brother Deze, this is my own affair, and Ive declared my decision not to pursue it. Ye Xiyuans tone grew resolute. Im the victim, and I have the right to make that call.

Watching Ye Xiyuans demeanor, Li Deze couldnt help but feel exasperated.

Ye Xiyuan, dont put on a show here, Qian Gumeng glared at Ye Xiyuan. Dont think that your past deeds have gone unnoticed. Actions have consequences, and you will face retribution.

Todays events wont end so easily, Li Deze turned to Qian Gumeng, speaking firmly. Even if Xiyuan chooses not to pursue this, it doesnt mean the incident never happened. I will report this to the princ.i.p.al now and let him ensure justice is served. I believe the princ.i.p.al will make a fair decision and will not allow a student with murderous intent to remain here.

Seeing the boy she cared for treating her this way, Qian Gumeng felt utterly heartbroken.

Li Deze, dont be naive. Do you truly believe that Ye Xiyuan likes you? She merely regards you as a backup plan, yet you devote yourself entirely to her. Is it truly worth it?

My personal matters have no relevance to you, Li Deze looked at Qian Gumeng with a mixture of disdain, as if he had spotted something unsavory. Furthermore, dont spew baseless accusations. There is nothing romantic between Xiyuan and me. I will continue to cherish her like a sister.

Although his affection for Ye Xiyuan lingered in his heart, he had vowed, just as he had at Ye Xiyuans birthday celebration, to silently protect her without causing her any distress.

With these words, Li Deze took Ye Xiyuans hand and began walking toward the princ.i.p.als office. He couldnt let this matter be swept under the rug. Even if he chose not to pursue legal consequences against Qian Gumeng, he was determined to ensure she was expelled from the school. Otherwise, they would share the same campus, and he had no idea when Qian Gumeng might snap and pose a threat to Ye Xiyuan again.

You will come to regret this, Li Deze. I promise you that. Ye Xiyuan is not as simple as she seems.

Watching Li Deze depart, Qian Gumeng sobbed loudly.

Is it worth it? Just then, a figure appeared before Qian Gumeng. For the sake of Li Deze, you and Ye Xiyuan have played a dangerous game, and now the tables have turned. Do you genuinely believe its all worth it?

Xuyan? Qian Gumeng raised her head and saw Ouyang Xuyan standing before her. She immediately reached out and grasped his sleeve, urgently pleading, You must help me. Youre the only one left who can. No one else is willing to support me.

As in countless previous instances, she turned to Ouyang Xuyan for a.s.sistance.

She knew all too well that even if the entire world abandoned her, Ouyang Xuvan would remain steadfastly by her side.

Hearing Qian Gumengs plea, Ouyang Xuyans eyes betrayed a hint of pain. Then how do you wish for me to help you?

At this moment, he recalled the words Ye Lengan had once spoken. It seemed that he had consistently played the role of a sycophant in front of Qian Gurneng. Now, he couldnt help but reflect upon himself. Had everything he sacrificed for her truly been worthwhile? For Qian Gumeng, he had given so much.. Was it time to cease?
