Chapter 162: Simply Out of Control
The two of them were invisible in Cla.s.s One, but they both liked Lin Yi.
However, because of their family backgrounds and conditions, they couldn’t get close to Lin Yi. There were countless girls in the same situation as them in Erzhong, and most of them had thought of approaching him through the only girl beside Lin Yi, Xia Qinghuan.
However, Xia Qinghuan was a person impervious to everything. Or perhaps, these people’s motives were written all over their faces. How could Xia Qinghuan be easily used by others?
However, things are different now. Lin Yi and Jian Yiyi were together, and Xia Qinghuan was no longer the only girl besides Lin Yi. Compared to Xia Qinghuan, Jian Yiyi was simply beautiful and kind. She did not have the airs of a rich girl at all. She spoke to anyone softly and gently.
Li Linlin and Xi Jie knew their limitations and that Lin Yi wouldn’t like them. Therefore, they immediately approached Jian Yiyi and thought that if they could become friends with Jian Yiyi, they might be able to become friends with Lin Yi in the future.
For a small fry like them, being Lin Yi’s friend was already enough.
Jian Yiyi felt smug when she heard their compliments but she looked hesitant. “Don’t say that. I don’t want to be noticed. My cla.s.smates always look at me secretly. It makes me uncomfortable.”
Xi Jie looked around and sneered. She turned to Jian Yiyi and said, “You’re pretty, Yiyi. These people are just jealous. Don’t take it to heart.”
“That’s right.” Li Linlin was unwilling to fall behind. “From the first day you came, the boys in our school have been saying that you are a G.o.ddess. They say that not only are you beautiful, but you also have a good temperament.”
Jian Yiyi blushed slightly. She looked embarra.s.sed. “Alright, let’s not talk about this. Let’s eat.”
On the other side, Yan Tian looked up at Jian Yiyi in the distance and said unhappily, “This Jian Yiyi did it on purpose, right? She said some ambiguous words and didn’t explain. In just one morning, she took advantage of Lin Yi’s absence and became Lin Yi’s girlfriend. Everyone now knows about it.”
Xia Qinghuan couldn’t help but sneer. “She’s not as innocent and harmless as she looks on the surface. You guys can only see a girl’s skin, but we girls can see a girl’s bones with just a look. This Jian Yiyi is very powerful.”
Guan Tao shrunk her neck and whispered, “What should we do? Lin Yi isn’t here. We can’t let the rumors spread, right?”
Gao Yang had a calm expression on his face as he said calmly, “Rumors can only be defeated by the truth. Before the truth is presented, rumors can’t be controlled because mouths are on others.”
“It’s not only that it can’t be controlled. It’s simply out of control. Didn’t you hear how these people are spreading it?” Yan Tian had a look of anger on his face as he said in a more serious tone, “If Lin Yi doesn’t admit it when he comes back, he will probably be taken as Chen s.h.i.+mei of the modern era!”(Chen s.h.i.+mei is a byword for a heartless and unfaithful man)
“Heh…” Xia Qinghuan chuckled disdainfully and looked up at Yan Tian. “We all know who Lin Yi likes. Just wait for Jian Yiyi to be exposed. I’ll see how she handles this.”
Hearing Xia Qinghuan’s words, Yan Tian realized that someone was missing at such an important time. He frowned and asked, “Where is Jian Ai?”
“Just now, after cla.s.s, she told me that she had something on and went out for a while, so she left,” Xia Qinghuan pursed her lips and said casually.
