Chapter 326: Xin Xin, The Past
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Seeing Xin Xin’s round eyes suddenly tear up, Chen Yuan’s heart skipped a beat. Then, he realized that it was his fault. He reached out and pulled Xin Xin’s hand. He lowered his head and said apologetically, “I’m sorry, baby. 1 shouldn’t have asked you so stiffly. Can you not cry first?”
“Tell me if that’s the case. If it’s really the case, 1 can think of a countermeasure in advance. This way, we won’t have to be afraid that Xia Wei and Jian Tan will suddenly make things difficult for us!” Chen Yuan added softly with a frown, but his eyes were searching for Xin Xin.
Although he said that he wanted to help Xin Xin and think of a countermeasure to deal with Xia Wei and Jian Tan, he did not want to believe that Xin Xin would be such a scheming person who would deal with Xia Wei!
Deep in his heart, Xin Xin was one of the most beautiful symbols in this world. She was absolutely clear and pure.
At the same time, he knew that Xia Wei was not the kind of person who made things up out of nothing.
Xia Wei probably disdained to use such a straightforward lie to frame Xin Xin, so this matter was really a little strange. This was also the reason why he had made up his mind to ask Xin Xin.
Chen Yuan could not accept that Xin Xin was such a person, nor did he want to be excluded by Xin Xin. Hence, he was actually a little conflicted at this moment.
How could Xin Xin, who was smart, not understand Chen Yuan’s concerns? She pretended to look at Chen Yuan in disbelief. Her round and bright tears were like bean-sized pearls that fell from her red eyes. She looked so pitiful!
“Brother Yuan! Why are you asking me this? Would you rather believe Xia Wei, who is full of lies, than me? What did 1 do? Do you think 1 would plot against Xia Wei with Sister Nan? Why would I do that?” Xin Xin looked at Chen Yuan with red eyes and asked in confusion, as if she had really suffered a huge grievance.
Seeing that Chen Yuan was looking at her with heartache but did not say anything to coax her, Xin Xin sobbed aggrievedly and continued to question without stopping. “Yes, 1 admit that there are some conflicts between Xia Wei and me, but isn’t the source of these conflicts all from you? Do you still remember what you told me back then? You said that you and Xia Wei were not boyfriend and girlfriend, but just an ordinary superior-subordinate relationship. What happened in the end?”
“Xia Wei suddenly appeared in [Heartthrob TA] and made things difficult for me and extorted me like a lunatic on the show! I can tolerate all of this on account that she once liked you, but you saw what happened after that. I didn’t take the initiative to provoke her, but she just couldn’t stand me in every way. What can I do?”
“This is only what you know. You don’t understand what happened between her and me in university. That’s the fundamental reason why she’s always been jealous of me!”
As Xin Xin spoke, she reached out and took the tissue from Chen Yuan with a frown. She avoided Chen Yuan’s gaze and wiped the tears on her face. She pretended to recall the past and slowly began to recount, “You should know that Li Xian and Xia Wei went to the same university and were students taught by the same mentor, right? Yes, I was still very close to Xia Wei at that time. She was almost my best friend.”
“But ever since Li Xian confessed to me, all of this peace has changed. I don’t know why Li Xian suddenly changed his mind and fell in love with me, but he was clearly Xia Wei’s boyfriend at that time! That was what he explained to me at that time. He said that the reason why Xia Wei misunderstood his feelings was actually Xia Wei’s own wishful thinking. He didn’t like Xia Wei, but he saw that Xia Wei was close to me, so he wanted to use our relationship to get close to me!”
“We didn’t know that this small matter would be so embarrassing. After Xia Wei found out the truth, she misunderstood that 1 seduced Li Xian and snatched her boyfriend, but God knows that I never knew Li Xian’s thoughts! 1 explained to her many times, but she never took it to heart. Later on, this matter became more and more out of control in school. Even our class teacher, Ms. Bai Ye, knew about this.”
“Xia Wei couldn’t withstand so much pressure later on, so she took the initiative to drop out of school. I heard from Ms. Bai Ye that she went to another school, and our relationship completely broke up.. However, I’ve always wanted to explain this matter to her!”
