Everyone immediately made way for him. Gao Yang was standing behind the crowd. Lin Yi and the others were naturally with him.

Gao Yang raised his hand to adjust the frame of his gla.s.ses. They could see no emotions in his sharp eyes, but his gaze landed on Yu Mengyao, who was sitting on the ground.

“Jian Ai!”

Xia Qinghuan was the first to rush through the crowd to Jian Ai's side. Her pretty face was also frowning. She first looked at Guan Tao, whose eyes were red, before looking at Yu Mengyao. She whispered, “Are you okay?”

Jian Ai also turned to look at Guan Tao. Guan Tao pursed her lips and shook her head. “I'm fine.”

At this moment, Gao Yang also walked over. When Yu Mengyao saw this, she couldn't help but pull a facial expression where she looked like she had been wronged. She pursed her lips as if she was about to cry. “Brother Yang…”

She looked like she was being bullied. Where was the arrogance from before?

Lin Yi and Yan Tian stood at the side and looked at Yu Mengyao's pretentious behavior. They couldn't help but frown. Everyone knew Yu Mengyao's fierce character. Her delicate appearance on the surface was done for Gao Yang to see.

However, they didn't say anything, as if they were already used to it.

As if he hadn't seen this, Gao Yang only asked with a soft voice, “Can you stand up?”

Yu Mengyao pouted and shook her head. “My hand hurts. I don't have any strength…”

Gao Yang sighed imperceptibly through his nose, but he still leaned down to help Yu Mengyao up. Yu Mengyao instantly became boneless, it seemed, and she leaned into Gao Yang's arms as if taking advantage of this opportunity to declare her sovereignty to everyone.

When Xia Qinghuan saw this, she didn't hide the fact that she rolled her eyes. It was as if she didn't want to look at them anymore. She immediately snarled, “I'll have a meal with Jian Ai and Guan Tao first. Take care of the things here.”

Gao Yang nodded gently when he heard this. Xia Qinghuan glared at Yu Mengyao before pulling Jian Ai and Guan Tao away. The onlookers quickly made way for them, and they couldn't help but feel surprised when they saw Jian Ai's back.

Gao Yang was a little proud and aloof, so he naturally didn't want to explain anything to these unrelated people. However, he immediately looked at Yu Mengyao with a slightly reproachful look. As soon as he opened his mouth, he didn't say anything too harsh. He only said softly, “Don't create trouble like this in the future.”

Yu Mengyao's eyes immediately turned red, as if she had no place to say her grievances. After a while, she muttered, “I saw that your handkerchief was with someone else, so I thought it had been stolen. It wasn't on purpose. Who asked you to casually lend someone such a portable item?”

Yan Tian could no longer bear to watch on from the side. He immediately said, “Alright, if you know it's a misunderstanding, then forget it. Let's go now and have a meal.”

The onlookers dispersed when they saw that nothing was interesting to watch.

“You know that you're in the same cla.s.s as Yu Mengyao, so why didn't you hide the handkerchief? She even knows what type of underwear Gao Yang is wearing, so she'll recognize the handkerchief.”

As soon as they left the school building, Xia Qinghuan looked at Guan Tao helplessly.

Guan Tao knew that she had caused trouble for everyone because of her. Hearing this, she couldn't help but lower her head even more. “The pocket of the school uniform was too shallow. The corner of the handkerchief peeked out a bit and Yu Mengyao saw it.”

Xia Qinghuan helplessly shook her head. “You're unlucky. I know Yu Mengyao's character the best. She didn't hit you, right?”
