Chapter 212: Chapter 212: How Did I Let You Down
When Xu Wanwan heard Lin Jiannan’s direct question, she couldn’t help but blush for a moment.
She turned on her phone and clicked on the picture again. That intimate action was unbearable to look at..
“Wanwan, hurry up and say something. What do you plan to do now?”
“UH…”Xu Wanwan was stunned for a moment. She didn’t know how to say it, but her face burned painfully. “When the heat passes, this matter will be over.”
“Li Jingran and I have not reconciled. In short, all of this is really a misunderstanding…”
She said it was a misunderstanding, but even she did not believe it.
Such intimate photos had been posted. How could anyone cause such a big misunderstanding.
But to explain this matter, it could only be said this way.
Lin Jiannan saw that he could not get anything out of her, so he did not continue to make things difficult for her.
Xu Wanwan originally thought that the misunderstanding would resolve itself in two days, but the popularity of the internet was growing.
Ever since that post became popular on various social media platforms, the netizens were divided into two gangs. Some slandered and disdained it, while others chose to bless it.
“In my opinion, this director Li and Miss Xu are really a good match. They are a perfect match. They are going to get married soon. This is really good news.”
“Yes, I thought this girl was not simple. I didn’t expect the man behind her to be Li Jingran. She is indeed extraordinary.”
“What is extraordinary? Who knows if this girl used some shady means to win over the man’s heart.”
“Besides, director Li owns the entire Li Corporation. That girl seems to have studied in the city from the countryside. They are not of the same family. Even if they get together, they will not be happy.”
“Big CEO Li has already announced their relationship in public, which means that they’re going to get married soon.”
“That’s right, that’s right. It’s an open era now. As long as the two of them like each other, it’s good enough. Why are you people so talkative?”
Xu Wanwan looked at those dazzling comments and unconsciously clenched her fists, letting out a soft sigh.
It was a lie to say that she didn’t have any psychological burden.
She couldn’t understand why this man would do such a thing when she was clearly no longer related to Li Jingran.
She had thought of taking some measures to suppress the popularity of the Internet, but she had contacted several media companies. When they heard her request, they immediately changed their minds.
After all, Li Jingran was too powerful. She had no power or influence, so how could she compete with him?
Xu Wanwan was not a fool. She knew that Li Jingran was forcing her to do this.
He wanted to force her to come forward.
But she did not want to fall into the man’s trap. If it was not a last resort, she would never look for him.
Just as she made this decision, she encountered a troublesome matter that afternoon.
Li Xuyi came back from abroad after reading the post. He rushed to the classroom, exhausted from travel, and threw his phone in front of Xu Wanwan. His mood was extremely gloomy. “Explain to me.”
Xu Wanwan was shocked by his sudden action. She looked up at the man and saw that it was Li Xuyi. A trace of surprise appeared in her eyes.
“You’re back?”
Li Xuyi did not seem to see her smiling face. He pointed at the post on the phone coldly. “Explain.”
The two words seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth. It was so cold that there was no warmth at all.
The smile on Xu Wanwan’s face disappeared. She casually glanced at the post. “I have no other relationship with Li Jingran. You Don’t have to misunderstand.”
“Heh, the two of you are already hugging each other, and you’re still telling me that there’s no relationship?”Li Xuyi curled his lips and said sarcastically in a cold voice.
Xu Wanwan clenched her fists. “You don’t have to believe it, but you have no reason to question me.”
She couldn’t understand why everyone thought she was lying.
Everyone felt that what she said was wrong.
The relationship between her and Li Jingran had long been strained. Why must she say something that wasn’t true in front of outsiders.
She couldn’t do this, and she didn’t want to.
Li Xuyi tilted his head and sneered. There was a hint of helplessness and depression in his eyes. He said in a deep voice, “Xu Wanwan, what did I do to you? Are you going to treat me like this?”
“You didn’t do anything to me, but I didn’t do anything to hurt you,”Xu Wanwan said faintly. “If you think I’m not good, you can stay away from me.”
She was in a bad mood to begin with, so she turned around and left right after she said that.
Li Xuyi stared at her back with a dark expression. The fists hanging by his side were about to crack.
He took a few steps forward and grabbed Xu Wanwan’s arm, forcing her to turn around and look at him.
The moment their eyes met, there were too many unspeakable emotions hidden.
Li Xuyi’s stiff shoulders gradually relaxed. When he saw Xu Wanwan’s clear and untainted eyes, he was like a deflated rubber ball.
“Do you really want to be with Li Jingran?”His voice was hoarse as if it had been ground.
Xu Wanwan’s emotions were complicated, and she took a light breath.
“Li Xuyi, who I’m with has nothing to do with you,”she said in a deep voice. “We’re just friends. Aren’t you being too nosy now?”
When Li Xuyi heard this, it was as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over his heart.
He was stunned for a moment before his lips curled into a mocking smile. “In your heart, we’re just friends?”
Xu Wanwan blinked. She had a feeling that he was in a weird mood today.
Her tone softened a little. “It was my attitude that was wrong earlier. I apologize to you.”
“No matter what happened, and no matter whether you believe what I said or not, in my heart, you’re still my very good friend.”
Li Xuyi’s lips curled into a mocking smile.
She really didn’t understand. was she still pretending not to understand?
Xu Wanwan was not in the mood to probe into the emotions in the man’s eyes.
After she said these words, she silently turned around and left.
In class, Chen qiping was collecting homework and happened to see this wonderful scene.
He secretly rejoiced in his heart. He walked to Li Xuyi and persuaded, “It’s not worth being sad for such a woman. If you want me to say it, you should give her a good scolding. who asked her to do such a shameless thing behind your back?”
Li Xuyi’s eyes were as sharp as knives. He glared at him coldly. The warning in his eyes was very obvious.
However, Chen qiping acted as if he had not seen it. He said to himself, “It’s not like you haven’t seen the posts on the internet. You should know how bad the impact of this matter is. She’s a fickle woman.”
He wanted to continue, but Li Xuyi turned around and gave him a punch. He held his collar as if he wanted to vent all his anger. “Say one more word to this daddy, and I’ll let you crawl out of Here!”
“You… put me down!”Chen qiping coughed violently. He tried to break free with both hands, but the force on his neck was too deep. He couldn’t move it at all.
Li Xuyi swept his gaze around. “Whoever dares to talk about Xu Wanwan behind her back will end up like this.”
The class suddenly quieted down. The people who had been discussing fervently just now suddenly stopped talking and went off to do their own things.
