Chapter 185

After hesitating for a long time, He Xue slowly walked to Miao Lian and Han Yu's side.

She could understand the meaning behind Xiao Yu's words.

What Xiao Yu said earlier was undoubtedly to help her clear her name.

Yes, Xiao Yu did say some very hurtful things to her before.

But even if Xiao Yu was just playing a game of friendship with him before.

Even if Xiao Yu only saw herself as an interesting toy.

She also believed that her relationship with Xiao Yu wouldn't collapse because of a few words.

"Help you? Don't flatter yourself, I didn't mean that."

"I simply had some minor disagreements with Miss Miao Lian."

Han Yu glanced at He Xue with disgust.

What she hated most about He Xue was that she could always put on a genuine smile, no matter the situation.

What is this? Do you really think you're the reincarnation of the Virgin Mary?

What she disliked most was the smile He Xue gave her.

That fake smile was absolutely disgusting.

Friends are nothing more than strangers who say nice things.

Just like that friend who was once her closest friend, but who ultimately betrayed her.

This was the thing that disgusted her the most.

Therefore, she doesn't need friends; without friends, there can be no betrayal.

"I should thank you for helping me out of this predicament."

He Xue ignored Han Yu's sarcasm.

Instead, a warm feeling welled up inside me.

The main reason Han Yu said that was because of her pride.

Actually, Xiao Yu isn't as bad as she claims.

Even Xiao Yu herself probably didn't realize that she wasn't a purely evil person.

"You're disgusting."

Han Yu frowned in displeasure at He Xue's smile.

Well, He Xue has completely ruined her good mood.

However... however, this secret joy in my heart is something else entirely...

She clearly only treated He Xue as her private pet or a toy that she could discard at any time.

She clearly hated He Xue's insincerity and fake smile the most.

But why did she feel relieved after clearing He Xue of suspicion?

Damn it...

"He Xue, I'm sorry..."

"I didn't mean to, but I really..."

Miao Lian looked up at He Xue in front of her.

She knew perfectly well that He Xue hadn't done it, but she really didn't know what to do.

Driven by jealousy and anger, she vented all her fury on He Xue.

That's incredibly lame. How could a noble lady like herself do such a thing to a commoner?

She has almost completely disgraced her own family.

"I know, I understand how you feel, Miss Miao Lian."

"There is no doubt that your bracelet was in my backpack, and it is understandable that you would be angry with me."

He Xue gently held Miao Lian's small hand and spoke softly.

She could understand Miao Lian's feelings.

Miao Lian is actually the biggest victim, and it is Miss Miao Lian who should be the one receiving care.

Miss Miao Lian became like this because she felt extremely helpless due to panic and anxiety.

Besides, the bracelet was indeed found with her, so it's understandable that the other person would be angry.

"He Xue, I really don't know what to do..."

Miao Lian finally broke down in tears after hearing He Xue's comforting words.

The last line of defense in my heart was breached by unease.

He suddenly hugged He Xue and burst into tears.

She clearly didn't want to be the bad guy; she clearly didn't want to intentionally hurt He Xue.

But after she did such a thing, the person who ultimately comforted her was He Xue.

That's terrible, she's absolutely awful...

"Miss Miao Lian... we will definitely find the truth..."

He Xue looked at Miao Lian was trembling in her arms, with a complicated expression.

The other person's body was unusually cold, as chilling as ice.

In fact, Miao Lian is the most vulnerable person right now; the other party's previous assertiveness was just an act.

No one supported Miao Lian, and no one spoke up for her.

But things are different on my side.

Wu Liang, Classmate Nanzhu, Classmate Laoshu, Miss Ning Shuang, and Xiao Yu are all supporting her.

Miao Lian is actually the one who is pitiful.

"Tsk..."

Han Yu smacked her lips as she looked at Miao Lian and Han Yu embracing each other.

It's infuriating, it's incredibly infuriating.

"Han Yu, you know who did that, right?"

Standing next to Han Yu, Wu Liang spoke calmly.

Han Yu probably knows the truth...

"What's wrong, Wu Liang?"

Han Yu turned around and smiled slightly at Wu Liang, who was standing beside her.

Of course she knew who did it, since she happened to be there at the time.

It's just that those two people were able to do something so low-class.

She had assumed those two would retaliate in a slightly more positive way.

In the end, they used such a boring method.

"Aren't you going to reveal the truth?"

"Miao Lian has already expressed her apology, so there's no need for you to keep hiding it now."

Wu Liang pointed to the two who had already reconciled.

Wasn't Han Yu only mocking Miao Lian because of He Xue?

Although she said that He Xue was just her pet, her toy.

But she had already etched He Xue's existence into her heart.

Miao Lian misunderstood He Xue and verbally attacked her.

That's why Han Yu slapped Miao Lian to wake her up.

Han Yu just doesn't want to admit it.

She was unwilling to admit that she considered He Xue a good friend.

"Wu Liang, do you think I stepped in to avenge He Xue?"

"Stop joking, okay? I just thought it was funny."

Han Yu nudged Wu Liang's chest with her elbow and said with a laugh.

She had no obligation to help He Xue.

She simply found it amusing.

Even if she slapped Miao Lian because of He Xue.

That was simply because Miao Lian made a sarcastic remark about the toy she liked.

Although she had already abandoned He Xue had once been her possession.

It's none of anyone else's business to interfere with her things.

"..."

Wu Liang rubbed his temples, looking like he had a headache.

You can just admit that you care about He Xue, it won't hurt you or anything.

It's something Han Yu can resolve with just a few words.

There's no need to waste time here.

"You really want me to tell you the truth? You want me to help He Xue?"

Suddenly remembering something, Han Yu looked up and asked Wu Liang.

A hint of joy appeared in his previously cold eyes.

It's like having a new idea, or remembering something interesting.

Han Yu was silent for a moment, then suddenly grabbed Wu Liang by the collar and pulled him down.

"I'm not asking you to tell the truth because I want you to help He Xue."

"I just want you to end this boring farce as soon as possible."

Wu Liang had no idea what Han Yu was thinking.

He couldn't figure out what Han Yu, a cunning woman, was thinking at all.

Strange and unusual things would always suddenly pop into her head.

He wasn't good at dealing with women like Han Yu; he was easily led by the nose by her.

"Stop acting. I know you want me to help He Xue out of this predicament."

"I can help and promise you I'll resolve this in the shortest time possible, but I need you to promise me one thing."

A charming smile appeared on Han Yu's small face.

Two adorable white canine teeth peeked out from between her lips, making her look incredibly cute.

Her previously dark purple eyes now shone brightly, sparkling and captivating.

"What's up."

Wu Liang frowned slightly.

His intuition told him that Han Yu's request was probably not a good thing.

After all, he would instinctively resist the words that came out of Han Yu's mouth.
