Jian Yiyi spoke casually but her words sounded more ambiguous in the ears of others.
“She even went to the hospital to visit him personally. Are they really together?”
“Oh my, I can’t accept that Lin Yi is dating like that!” someone exclaimed.
“What’s the use of not accepting it? Are you as pretty as Jian Yiyi?”
Not only were the female students complaining, but the boys were too.
“Jian Yiyi just transferred here and she’s already with Lin Yi…”
“Beautiful women are indeed popular. We don’t even have a chance to confess.”
“Stop dreaming about eating swan meat…”
“Take a look in the mirror. You’re worse than me!”
Jian Ai knew better than anyone who Lin Yi liked.
“Yan Tian and I went yesterday afternoon as well.” Xia Qinghuan leaned over to Jian Ai and whispered in her ear.
Jian Ai looked at her and asked, “How is he?”
Xia Qinghuan pursed her lips. “He looks fine, but the doctor said that he would need to recuperate for a few days.”
Xia Qinghuan straightened her face and looked at Jian Ai. “Are you really not going to consider it? Lin Yi truly likes you now.”
Jian Ai: “…”
Did he tell Xia Qinghuan and Yan Tian?
Jian Ai shook her head and said, “There’s nothing to consider.”
Xia Qinghuan sighed gloomily. She didn’t know what Jian Ai was thinking. Did she give Lin Yi a death sentence just because she failed once in her confession?
However, they could not force this matter. As a friend, she could only try her best to matchmake them. However, only Lin Yi was keen now. The initiative was completely in Jian Ai’s hands.
After the third period, Li Yun Mei pulled Jian Yiyi to a corner.
“Xiao Mei, what’s wrong?”
Seeing Li Yunmei’s expression, Jian Yiyi looked worried. She blinked her big eyes innocently.
Li Yunmei could not hold it in anymore. News of Jian Yiyi and Lin Yi had spread everywhere, but everyone knew that she liked Lin Yi as well. Jian Yiyi was her best friend. Today, the classmates were looking at her with obvious ridicule. She wanted to find a hole in the ground and bury herself in it.
“Are you really with Lin Yi?” Li Yunmei asked bluntly. She was already trying her best to suppress her emotions in front of Jian Yiyi. If it were anyone else, she would have already laid a hand on that person!
However, Jian Yiyi panicked when she heard this. She even blushed shyly and lowered her voice. “Xiao Mei, don’t talk nonsense. It’s not like that.”
“I’m talking nonsense? Hah…” Li Yunmei was so angry that she laughed. “Then why did you go to the hospital to see him yesterday? Why didn’t he get Yan Tian or Gao Yang to apply for leave? Instead, he asked you to help him apply for leave?”
As she spoke, Li Yunmei’s eyes turned red. “Everyone knows that I like Lin Yi. Why are you doing this to me? I treat you as my best friend!”
“Xiao Mei, don’t misunderstand…” Jian Yiyi looked anxious and grabbed Li Yunmei’s hand. “I have always thought of you as my best friend! But Lin Yi was injured because our Jian Group’s resort villa caught fire. I was his classmate and tablemate. My mother asked me to go to the hospital to see him. I feel guilty towards him, so I went.”
“It’s just that, Xiao Mei, …” Jian Yiyi pursed her lips and looked like she couldn’t say the words out.
Li Yunmei almost believed Jian Yiyi’s words. When she saw her expression, she frowned. “What?”
Jian Yiyi’s voice lowered, and she looked helpless. “Actually… it’s not that I like Lin Yi, but Lin Yi likes me…”
