Ye Jian felt enlightened. She looked at Yang Heng with interest.
She didn’t interact with Yang Heng much so she didn’t know him well. However, she was able to tell what his personality was like from his face. In her past life, she was forced to learn to read people to tell if this person was good or bad. This was to protect herself. Hence, it was easy for her to read the face of a young man who has not learned how to hide his emotions.
He was a bad but not a very bad person. He was in the rebellious stage now. He had his bottom line so he knew what he can do and what he mustn’t.
His results had always been in the top five of his year so he could do what he wanted as long as he didn’t go overboard. In school, he was a good student. The teachers didn’t need to care much about him. As for what he did outside, sorry, that is the responsibility of his parents.
In school, the teachers took care of the students. When they went back home, they were their parent’s responsibilities.
Yang Heng touched his face when he heard Ye Jian’s explanation. He laughed heartily, “Am I really very tan? It looks like I need to put on sunscreen.”
“It’s too late now.” It was almost 2 pm. The students were starting to wake up. Ye Jian pointed to an empty spot in front. “Do you have something to tell me? Let’s go over there. There are lesser people.”
Yang Heng was very popular in school. There might be rumors if people saw them together.
Yang Heng indeed had something to tell Ye Jian. He nodded and walked away first. His legs were long so his walking speed was twice as fast as Ye Jian. Within a few seconds, they reached the place that Ye Jian pointed at.
Ye Jian thanked Yang Heng for his thoughtfulness. He walked quickly to avoid arousing any suspicion.
The sprinkles that watered the plants on the field turned on. The students were able to wash their faces using this water and get rid of some heat.
Yang Heng washed his hair before finding Ye Jian again. There was a faint smell of shampoo on him.
He looked at Ye Jian with his handsome eyes. “I’m sorry.” Those were his first two words. He was apologizing for Yao Jing as well as himself.
“I lived in the same place as Yao Jing ever since we were young. She was always scheming. As she grew older, she got more scheming. However, she was polite to people and was never stingy. Hence, she has many friends.”
No wonder they seemed so familiar with each other when they were talking at the basketball court. They were childhood friends.
Ye Jian didn’t speak. She just smiled and waited patiently for Yang Heng to continue.
“She appears loyal to her friends but she knows how to protect herself. You might see her walking around with many friends but she would never confide in any of them.”
Yang Heng didn’t plan to hide anything. She was someone who was able to find a suspect within four hours. Her drawing of the suspect was 90% similar to the actual person. If someone wanted to make friends with this smart and meticulous lady, they had to be blatant.
Everything Yang Heng said had been thought through thrice. He knew that Yao Jing was targeting Ye Jian so he kept looking for a chance to speak to her.
