Chapter 6: What Did That Have to Do With You

Jian Ai slowly raised her head and looked at Li Yunmei emotionlessly. Then, she said to Li Yunmei in a voice just loud enough for everyone in the class to hear, “Whether Lin Yi gave me a love letter or not, or why he gave me one, what does all of this have to do with you?”

Without waiting for Li Yunmei to speak, Jian Ai let out a cold laugh through her nose and continued, “Could it be that you like Lin Yi? Was that why you were so angry? Did you push me into the school pond because you were jealous?”

Everyone knew that Jian Ai fell into the pond, but not everyone knew that Li Yunmei pushed her. Now that Jian Ai had said it so casually, even Li Yunmei felt a little embarrassed. She immediately blushed and shouted, “Jian Ai, stop slandering me. What has it got to do with me that you fell into the pond?”

When the surrounding students saw this, their expressions changed, and they started whispering.

“Did Li Yunmei push Jian Ai?”

“You still don’t know? I heard it from someone two days ago.”

“I heard about it too. I thought it was fake, but it turned out to be real.”

“That’s too much. That pond is more than three meters deep. What if something happened?”

Because of her poor family background, most of Jian Ai’s classmates isolated her, not because she was annoying. Although the students who knew the truth didn’t like her, they felt that Jian Ai was innocent and pitiful in this matter.

Li Yunmei had never been talked about like this before. Usually, no one dared to speak to her like this. Yet today, Jian Ai rebuked her inconspicuously. She immediately felt that her self-esteem had been hurt and wanted to reach out to grab Jian Ai’s hair.

“Jian Ai!”

Just when everyone thought that Li Yunmei would teach Jian Ai a lesson, a clear voice came from the classroom door.

When Li Yunmei heard this voice, her hand suddenly stopped in mid-air. The rest of the class also looked at the door in unison.

Outside the door of Class Three, a fair-skinned, energetic-looking boy stood there.

The boy was fifteen years old but was almost 1.8 meters tall. He had short hair, and his fringe covered his eyebrows, revealing only a pair of bright eyes. There was still a thin layer of sweat on the tip of his nose. He was holding a basketball in his left hand. It was obvious that he had just finished playing basketball in the courts.

The morning sun shone on his back. There was a circle of reddish-yellow light that made him look even better.

It was none other than Lin Yi!

Jian Ai instinctively looked over and met Lin Yi’s gaze.

“Can you come out for a while? I have something to tell you!”

Lin Yi’s expression didn’t change much as he directly raised his head at Jian Ai.

Everyone turned to look at Jian Ai with different expressions on their faces. They didn’t think that Lin Yi would come to Class Three’s door to look for Jian Ai. Didn’t he write a love letter to Jian Ai because of a bet?

Jian Ai didn’t argue. She stood up, walked around Li Yunmei, and walked out of the door.

When Jian Ai left the classroom, everyone exploded again!

“Damn, what’s going on?”

“Does Lin Yi really like Jian Ai?”

“That’s impossible, right?”

“Why not? Jian Ai is pretty!”

“That’s true…”

On the other side of the corridor, Jian Ai stood in front of Lin Yi. Due to the height difference, Jian Ai had to tilt her head slightly to meet his eyes.
