Jian Ai naturally felt the peculiar gazes of the surrounding people as well. Even she, who was standing in front of Lin Yi, could not avoid them.
At that moment, Jian Ai was already immune to everything. She walked towards the school calmly and asked, “Yan Tian and the rest didn’t tell you?”
Lin Yi was already suspicious, so when he heard Jian Ai’s words, Lin Yi felt that something was even more fishy. He quickly walked over to Jian Ai and said, “No, what’s going on? Is it related to me?”
“Now, everyone in school knows that you are with Jian Yiyi.” Jian Ai shrugged helplessly and didn’t hide it.
There was no need to hide this matter. Lin Yi was not a fool. Even if she did not tell him now, he would know after a lesson was over.
“Wh… What?” Lin Yi looked like lightning struck him when he heard this. His handsome face was filled with disbelief, and his pink lips moved. In the end, he couldn’t help but be angry. “Me and who? Me and Jian Yiyi?”
This was too ridiculous!
In a hurry, Lin Yi looked at Jian Ai and said, “Jian Ai, this is completely false. Don’t take it seriously.”
Lin Yi had always been a good-tempered person, but at this moment, his heart was burning with anger. It was no wonder. If it were in the past, he would never take some harmless rumors to heart. But now, it is different. He already had someone he liked. He was afraid that these ridiculous rumors would cause Jian Ai to bear a grudge against him.
Therefore, Lin Yi’s first reaction was to explain to Jian Ai.
Even if this had nothing to do with him, he was, after all, not in school this week.
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Yi nervously looked at Jian Ai’s profile to observe her expression and reaction.
Unexpectedly, Jian Ai chuckled lightly and looked at Lin Yi casually. She said helplessly, “It’s not important whether or not I take it seriously. What’s important is that others take it seriously.”
Lin Yi was speechless. “…”
Her tone sounded relaxed, as if this matter did not affect her at all.
Lin Yi’s chest tightened, and a trace of sadness filled his eyes.
Did she really not mind?
Did she not feel uncomfortable at all when rumors of him with other girls spread? Did she not feel uncomfortable at all?
“Lin Yi!”
Lin Yi was about to say something when a gentle and weak voice sounded from behind him like a lark in spring.
He turned around and saw Jian Yiyi running over in a white high-end suit with a smile on her face.
Because of Jian Ai’s words, Lin Yi’s expression was not good. When Jian Yiyi came up to him, she said, “Lin Yi, why are you back at school so soon? You don’t look too good!”
Her tone was full of concern, and her pair of watery eyes revealed some hint of friendship.
Faced with such a sincere Jian Yiyi, Lin Yi didn’t turn around and leave, but his tone was more indifferent. “I’m almost well.”
As if she didn’t feel Lin Yi’s abnormality and the distant feeling in his tone, Jian Yiyi widened her eyes and curled her lips. She revealed a cheerful expression. “That’s great. You know, I was always worried about you! I even took the time to go to the hospital again, but the doctor said that you were discharged.”
The two of them stood on the steps in front of the school building. Lin Yi didn’t know if it was his imagination, but he felt that Jian Yiyi’s voice was two to three decibels louder than before.
Because of the rumors, it upset everyone. Now, because of Jian Yiyi’s loud voice, everyone looked at them.
