Chapter 173: Asking To Be Burned

As Bai Weiyang spoke, they had already reached Gu Yan’s and Lu Ye’s side.

A bit of distance still existed between the two pairs. Even so, they could hear the conversation of both sides.

The point of Bai Weiyang’s remark was to specifically implicate Gu Yan.

She hoped Haoran would have the worst impression of Gu Yan.

Taking advantage of Lin Xiaoyu’s situation would be the best way to reach her goal.

More importantly, destroying someone’s future was indeed a grave matter.

Meanwhile, Gu Yan didn’t appear to be unsettled. It seemed as though she heard nothing. She simply studied the blossoms around intently.

Lu Ye felt a little unhappy, making his handsome brows furrowed.

Bai Weiyang’s face crinkled in bewilderment after failing to rile up Gu Yan. She then looked at Lin Haoran.

Lin Haoran bowed his head in contemplation, unaware of what the other person was thinking.

Bai Weiyang directly confronted Gu Yan. She furiously accused, “Gu Yan, you made Xiaoyu leave the special training division. Don’t you feel guilty at all?”

‘Then, what about you? You snatched away someone else’s life. Are you not guilty?’

Gu Yan sneered inside.

Since Bai Weiyang sought to get burned herself, she felt quite happy.

With such thoughts in her heart, Gu Yan scoffed and said, “What happened between me and Lin Xiaoyu has nothing to do with you, isn’t it?”

“… I can’t ignore it!”

“Oh, Miss Bai has quite a good sense of justice. I can’t see through you. I can’t tell whether you are minding someone else’s business. What should I do?” Gu Yan smirked. “Will you disappear on the spot?”

No one had the audacity to ever speak to her like that. Bai Weiyang was fuming with anger. She almost couldn’t breathe. Her body trembled with seething fury.

Sure enough, Gu Yan grew up in a village!

She was indeed vulgar!

Bai Weiyang pointed at Gu Yan, wanting to say something. At this point, however, Lin Haoran’s voice drifted over coldly. “Weiyang, let it go.”

Lin Haoran took a deep look at Gu Yan. He knew right then she became akin to a hedgehog covered in defensive spikes once more.

Bai Weiyang wouldn’t be able to win against her opponent like this. She would only embarrass herself.

Accordingly, she felt wronged after being told off. She bit her lips, and her expression really seemed pitiful.

She complained, “Haoran, I didn’t expect this Gu Yan to be this vulgar. She’s unreasonable!”

Lu Ye was instantly irked by her remark. He raised a brow and glared at Bai Weiyang.

“Bai Weiyang, everyone calls you educated. How can you not even know how to properly speak? How did you even manage to score full marks on your literacy exam?”

“Captain Lu, you…” Bai Weiyang didn’t expect Lu Ye to help Gu Yan.

When she first heard Gu Yan was dating Lu Ye, she didn’t believe it at all. But later on, she was more assured of the fact that at least, Gu Yan had a boyfriend already.

With that taken care of, she wouldn’t be able to catch Lin Haoran’s attention.

After all, Lin Haoran and Lu Ye had hated each other for a longer period than she could count.

But although she could sneer at Gu Yan, she couldn’t talk back to Lu Ye carelessly. Hence, Bai Weiyang forced a smile on her face and said, “Captain Lu, you can still remember me getting full marks during the alliance exam.”

“Mhm, just that you don’t deserve it.” Lu Ye responded formally.

Gu Yan found it funny.

On the side, the light on Lin Haoran’s eyes proceeded to dim.

It was clear Lu Ye was protective of Gu Yan. He always had her back.

Lin Haoran asked himself whether he would do the same if he had a girlfriend like Gu Yan.
