Chapter 807: Did You Do It?
Of course, the reason he treated Yu Mengyao differently was not because of a ridiculous arranged marriage, but because the two of them were true childhood sweethearts. Gao Yang and Yu Mengyao had known each other since they could remember, and he had known her longer than Lin Yi and the rest.
Before the two of them were born, the parents of the two families had indeed joked about them getting engaged. When they told the two of them, the parents treated it as a joke.
Yu Mengyao had liked Gao Yang since she was young, so she naturally took it seriously.
However, Gao Yang was different. He treated Mengyao completely as his sister.
In Gao Yang’s eyes, an arranged marriage was nonsense. What era was it now? Why were they still doing this?
He had a calm personality and never explained about childish things. In his eyes, only an idiot would believe such a thing.
“Did you do it?” Gao Yang asked coldly. His tone did not sound like he was asking, but more of a question.
Yu Mengyao paused and looked up at Gao Yang. “What?”
As if not understanding Gao Yang’s words, Yu Mengyao’s eyes were filled with questions.
Looking at Gao Yang’s cold expression, Yu Mengyao pursed her lips nervously and whispered, “Brother Yang, you’re… scaring me.”
Gao Yang acted as if he didn’t see Yu Mengyao’s reaction and only asked again coldly, “Did you do it?”
“I really don’t know what you’re talking about.” Yu Mengyao looked anxious and aggrieved as she looked at Gao Yang. “Tell me! What did I do?”
If it were anyone else, they would have been swayed by Yu Mengyao’s reaction.
However, it did not sway Gao Yang. It was not that he did not believe Yu Mengyao, but this was not the first time this had happened.
As early as when they were in primary school, Gao Yang had seen Yu Mengyao push a girl who gave him cookies down some stone steps outside with his own eyes, causing the eight-year-old girl to break her nose bridge.
Gao Yang saw it through the gla.s.s door back then, so Yu Mengyao did not know.
Gao Yang didn’t understand why Yu Mengyao would do this, after all they were still children at that time. He only thought that the two girls had an argument and that Yu Mengyao had slipped up.
However, something strange had happened to Guan Tao. In addition, Jian Ai and Qinghuan pointed at Yu Mengyao at the same time, making Gao Yang remember what had happened when he was young.
The two of them had grown up together. No matter how unfriendly Yu Mengyao was to others, Gao Yang knew she was sincerely good to him.
He initially thought that he would not like other girls. If that was the case, he would not resist marrying Yu Mengyao in the future. He had never experienced something as illusory as love, so he only treated it as unnecessary in his heart.
But when he met Guan Tao, he lost control of himself and could no longer control his heart and gaze.
Only then did he know that liking someone felt like this.
Looking at Yu Mengyao in front of him, he didn’t want to doubt her.
However…
“Did you smear Guan Tao’s name on the noticeboard?” Gao Yang was determined to get to the bottom of this. He could not let anyone hurt Guan Tao again, not even Yu Mengyao!
When Yu Mengyao heard this, she couldn’t help but reveal a shocked expression. She looked at Gao Yang with heartache. “You suspect me? Do you also suspect me of Guan Tao falling into the water?”
