Chapter 193: Whoever Started the Trouble Should End It

Didn’t he especially go back to look for it?

Could it be that the smoke was too strong that day, that he couldn’t find it?

Jian Yiyi felt relieved at this thought. She smiled in understanding. “That’s true. The fire was so fierce and the villa was filled with smoke. Understandably, you wouldn’t be able to find it.”

“It’s okay. If you lost that one, so be it. I’ll give you another one later.” Jian Yiyi looked at the silver-gray pen in Lin Yi’s hand. “Do you still like Guoyou fountain pens?”

Jian Yiyi’s voice was gentle and soft. However, Lin Yi was confused, and he felt that Jian Yiyi was noisy.

His handsome brows subconsciously furrowed, and Lin Yi impatiently said, “Can you be quiet for a while?”

Jian Yiyi: “…”

Even if she didn’t want to admit it, it was not hard to see Lin Yi’s anger. Jian Yiyi pursed her lips and looked at Lin Yi, aggrieved.

Lin Yi didn’t even look at her. Jian Yiyi felt wronged for a long time, but she still forced herself to hold it in.

Lin Yi was no fool. He was not in school for the week, and yet rumors about him and Jian Yiyi had spread in school. Everyone knew about it.

He was kept in the dark because he was not around, but as the other party involved, shouldn’t Jian Yiyi explain and clarify things?

If Jian Yiyi wanted to avoid suspicion, she would have avoided him and treated him coldly.

But it seemed that the rumor did not affect Jian Yiyi at all. She even showed abnormal concern and warmth towards him.

In Lin Yi’s heart, Jian Yiyi was at most a transfer student. Both had only known each other for a short time, and they couldn’t even be considered friends. Why was she so attentive to him?

They were no longer children. At fourteen or fifteen years old, it was the period when hormones were secreted. Everyone was very sensitive to relationships.

Jian Yiyi’s feelings for him were written all over her face.

However, Lin Yi had no time to care about Jian Yiyi’s thoughts. All his attention was on Jian Ai, and his thoughts were conflicted.

He had hoped that Jian Ai would at least feel sad because of the whole ordeal, but he was also afraid that Jian Ai

would

be

sad because of this.

However, seeing that Jian Ai was not sad, it was he who felt sad instead.

During the second period, while Jian Yiyi went to the bathroom, Yan Tian went up to Lin Yi. “What’s wrong? You have been pulling a long face all morning!”

Lin Yi had a sunny and handsome appearance. His smile was even more charming, which was why many girls had pursued him. It was rare for him to show a serious expression.

Lin Yi looked at Yan Tian unhappily and ignored him.

Yan Tian: “???”

What was going on? Did I offend him?

“It’s all because of those rumors in school,” Gao Yang said expressionlessly, as he walked forward and adjusted his glasses.

“Tsk.” Yan Tian curled his lips helplessly. When he heard that, he looked at Lin Yi and said, “Brother, we can’t be blamed for this. You don’t know how powerful that girl, Jian Yiyi, is. She looked like she was helping you to apply for leave, but she carried a completely intimate tone. It’s impossible for others not to overthink. In just one morning, there were dozens of versions of rumors. We each have mouths. We can’t possibly help you explain them one by one, right?”

Gao Yang also spoke up at the right time. “Moreover, the person who started this should be the one to end it. If Jian Yiyi doesn’t admit to it, no one will believe us even if we help you explain. However, Jian Yiyi never admitted it, nor did she deny it.”
