Chapter 212: Apologize!
No matter how silly they were, they could see Jian Yiyi’s hypocrisy.
She hadn’t admitted it herself, but everyone thought of her as Lin Yi’s girlfriend, and she never even denied it.
The rumors were so exciting when Lin Yi was not around, but it did not affect her at all. She often revealed a shy expression, and it was obvious that she was enjoying it.
Now that she couldn’t control the matter, she knew how to cry?
However, Xi Jie and Li Linlin didn’t turn against her on the spot. After all, Jian Yiyi’s family background was obvious. It wasn’t easy for them to become friends with her, so they couldn’t bear to cut ties with her just like that.
“What should we do? Everyone’s cursing Lin Yi now. You caused him to die!”
Xi Jie spoke with less concern in her tone.
Li Linlin only sighed deeply. She was blaming Jian Yiyi for being too vain. Things couldn’t be resolved now.
Jian Yiyi knew that she had to put on a show. She cried even harder. “I can’t let Lin Yi be scolded. I’ll explain it to him at noon today. Boohoo…”
Xi Jie and Li Linlin looked at each other. Although they didn’t know if Jian Yiyi was sincere, at least she felt regretful.
Li Linlin’s tone softened. “Alright, stop crying.”
Xi Jie patted Jian Yiyi’s back comfortingly.
Jian Yiyi cried three times during the four classes in the morning. When she appeared in the cafeteria at noon, her face was pale, and her bright eyes were swollen like walnuts.
Jian Ai saw this and couldn’t help but admire her in her heart. She was a meticulous person. With such a delicate and pitiful appearance, no one could bear to say anything later.
Xi Jie and Li Linlin were both people who couldn’t keep quiet. They had already released this news in the morning. At this time, many people knew that Jian Yiyi had nothing to do with Lin Yi.
This was Jian Yiyi’s goal. She would first cry to Xi Jie and Li Linlin and then use their mouths to spread the news so that everyone could digest it. This way, when she clarified things in the cafeteria at noon, it wouldn’t be too shocking.
Therefore, Jian Yiyi was considered an extremely smart person among her peers.
“Lin Yi…”
Jian Yiyi walked straight to Lin Yi and said, “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have left yesterday. Everyone misunderstood you and caused you trouble. I sincerely apologize.”
Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked over.
Jian Yiyi wasn’t embarrassed. She went up and apologized.
Lin Yi looked at her with mixed emotions.
He was angry and didn’t want to let it go. However, when he saw Jian Yiyi’s red eyes from crying, he felt that as a boy, he shouldn’t go overboard.
Without waiting for him to say anything, Jian Yiyi said, “I know that you are troubled by rumors and are very angry. You also blame me for not standing up to clarify things first. I didn’t take them to heart at first. I didn’t expect the rumors to spread so quickly. By the time I came back to my senses, it was already not something I could control.”
“And everyone spread the rumors again. I’ve never said that I’m your girlfriend or admitted it myself.”
Jian Yiyi explained with red eyes. She meant that she wanted to explain but it was too late. She couldn’t control it.
Lin Yi didn’t want to argue with Jian Yiyi anymore. Since she had already clarified things, he might as well get over it.
However, before he could say anything, a voice interrupted coldly.
“So, you were lying when you told me that Lin Yi liked you?”
