Chapter 209: If You Can’t Get It, Destroy It
Jian Ai smiled but her expression didn’t change. She looked at Jian Yiyi and said calmly, “I want to know what you want to do.”
Jian Ai had never understood Jian Yiyi’s way of thinking. She took advantage of Lin Yi’s absence to cause trouble and let the rumors spread, making everyone believe that she was with Lin Yi.
However, a lie was a lie.
Lin Yi had to go back to school eventually, and Jian Yiyi couldn’t possibly sing a one-man show for the rest of her life.
Lin Yi didn’t like her, so he naturally wouldn’t cooperate with her. When the truth came out, she would be the only one to lose face.
So… what was Jian Yiyi up to?
Even someone as meticulous as Jian Ai was stunned because Jian Yiyi’s action was like shooting herself in the foot.
Jian Ai didn’t hide her expression. Jian Yiyi looked at Jian Ai’s eyes and knew that she was puzzled.
A conflicted look flashed across her eyes, and for the first time, Jian Yiyi spoke the truth. “I misunderstood something. I thought Lin Yi liked me.”
Jian Ai was enlightened by her words.
The knot in her heart that was filled with question marks instantly resolved.
Jian Ai said, “So you let public opinion ferment, and then you decided that since Lin Yi liked you, you wanted to use everyone’s help to force Lin Yi to confess to you sooner?”
Jian Yiyi looked up at Jian Ai and didn’t say anything.
It was considered a silent agreement.
“What did you misunderstand?” Jian Ai frowned curiously. Jian Yiyi had transferred here for less than a month, and they were all present when she was with Lin Yi. She didn’t think Lin Yi had shown any signs of liking Jian Yiyi.
Jian Yiyi pursed her lips. Although she was a little embarrassed to say it, it was impossible to stop now that Jian Ai had seen through her. It was meaningless even if she didn’t say it.
“When the villa caught fire, Lin Yi risked his life to return to the fourth floor for a fountain pen. I heard this by accident.”
Jian Ai: “…”
On Lin Yi’s birthday, she and Jian Yiyi both gave him a fountain pen.
So, Jian Yiyi misunderstood that Lin Yi went back to look for the one she gave him?
“If you knew that it was a misunderstanding, why didn’t you explain?” Jian Ai lowered her tone. After all, Jian Yiyi was just a fourteen-year-old girl. “Yesterday at the cafeteria, as long as you nodded, everything would have been resolved.”
Because of Jian Yiyi’s refusal, such a simple matter became such a complicated situation.
Jian Ai’s attitude softened slightly so that Jian Yiyi was less guarded against her. But the dark side of her heart gradually appeared. She smiled and sneered. “Why should I nod?”
Jian Ai frowned and saw the disdain in Jian Yiyi’s eyes. She continued, “Everyone thought that we were together. Why would I nod at that time?”
“What about Lin Yi? Didn’t you think about him?” Jian Ai couldn’t believe it. Jian Yiyi’s sudden change surprised her.
Jian Yiyi saw this and mockingly smiled at Jian Ai. “If he doesn’t like me, why should I think about him?”
Jian Yiyi’s expression changed. She raised her eyebrows indifferently and said in a relaxed tone, “If you can’t get it, destroy it.”
Her tone was cold and indifferent.
However, in the next second, Jian Yiyi couldn’t laugh.
The ridicule on Jian Ai’s face intensified. A… recording pen had appeared in her hand!
