CHAPTER 412: CHAPTER 405: COMPLETE VICTORY

Everyone became doubtful again, who was telling the truth after all? If what Tang Anxin said was true, that He Sisi really abandoned the professor and classmates to escape alone, then Miss He’s character would indeed be problematic!

Seeing everyone’s changing looks, Tang Anxin was extremely pleased. He Sisi, oh He Sisi, what kind of sophistry can you still have at this time? Even if the two sitting next to you try to defend you, I’m afraid no one will believe it, right?

As long as Brother Yuxi knows you’re a coward who’s afraid of death and deserts in the face of battle, let’s see if he will still talk about you, He Sisi, all the time.

Sisi casually glanced at the next table’s Chang Yunhuan and Song Mengshi at this table, Tang Anxin oh Tang Anxin, why didn’t you do your research before smearing someone?

"I really don’t know who Miss Tang heard this from? To twist the truth like this, it’s truly infuriating."

Sisi deliberately put on an aggrieved look, and Tang Anxin, seeing this, was even more delighted, pretending to be embarrassed and said, "I just heard about it, perhaps I got it wrong, Miss He, please don’t mind."

"Of course I won’t mind, everyone in our class saw what happened that day, with so many witnesses present, how could I be worried about being slandered by some villain?" Sisi said nonchalantly.

At this moment, she suddenly felt sick of it, there will always be people like Tang Anxin causing trouble, she might not be afraid, but after too many times, she truly felt tired of it.

Right there and then, Sisi put on a stern face, and before Tang Anxin could speak, she turned her head to Chang Yunhuan, who had been trying to stay invisible next door, and said, "Squad Leader Chang, you were one of the people involved that day, and you were with Professor Ma and Liu Xuelian the whole time, why don’t you tell Miss Tang about what happened that day? In detail, please."

Of course, Sisi was not afraid that Chang Yunhuan would lie. Chang Yunhuan was the type to deceive the world and steal a name, now that she pointed out he had been with the professor and Liu Xuelian all along, if he didn’t tell the truth, then Chang Yunhuan would also become a coward just like her, He Sisi.

Chang Yunhuan secretly cursed his bad luck, deeply regretting why he had to sit in this spot? Truly like being caught in a fire at the city gate, bringing disaster to the fish in the pond!

However, he still maintained a polite demeanor, slowly standing up. At this time, everyone also noticed the handsome man at the adjacent table, with his sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, thin lips slightly quivering; even though all the men present were not bad looking, seeing Chang Yunhuan, this phoenix man, they couldn’t help but admire him vocally.

Tang Anxin also noticed Chang Yunhuan, and even though she was smitten with Li Yuxi, at this moment she was dazzled by Chang Yunhuan’s elegance. Li Yuxi also looked good, but probably because of the lack of exercise, he was more delicate and lacked rugosity.

Chang Yunhuan was different, after all, he came from a rural background. Although he loves living off women, some manual labor was inevitable for him, and therefore, Chang Yunhuan, who did manual labor, was much more robust than the average scholar, attracting more attention from the girls.

In those few seconds, Chang Yunhuan had already turned several thoughts in his mind. He had to choose the most favorable statement for himself, without offending either side, He Sisi was not to be provoked, but that Miss Tang, who opposed He Sisi, was not easy to provoke either.

After brewing his words, Chang Yunhuan smiled and spoke generally about the events of that day, highlighting how ferocious the bandits were, and how bravely he led his classmates in their struggle, and eventually, due to being outnumbered, fell into the hands of the bandits, but because they were outpowered, they could only watch Liu Xuelian be bullied.

Of course, he wouldn’t forget Sisi; he described Sisi and Shangguan as courageous and strategic female warriors, charging forward to attract the enemy’s attention.

Chang Yunhuan’s eloquence was quite impressive; he recounted the event with such thrilling and suspenseful turns that not only were the people at his table engrossed, but even some of the patrons at the neighboring table were drawn in.

Sisi found it amusing and, seeing as how Chang Yunhuan knew to act opportunistically, she didn’t expose his lies and let him boast.

After hearing this, Tang Qiubai frowned tightly and asked Song Mengshi, "Meng Shi, why haven’t you ever mentioned this incident before?"

Song Mengshi felt a sourness in her heart. How could she bring it up? Was she expected to praise another girl in front of the man she cared about? Especially since that girl was the one her beloved fancied.

"This wasn’t a very pleasant memory for me, so that’s why I didn’t want to mention it," Song Mengshi said with a forced smile.

Tang Qiubai saw that her expression did seem a bit off and, though he still felt uncomfortable, he didn’t inquire further.

Chang Yunhuan saw that Tang Anxin’s face had turned sour and felt an uneasy thump in his heart; he quickly said with a smile, "Miss Tang must have been overly concerned for her friends and thus believed in some villains’ nonsense. I’m sure Mr. He won’t mind."

Upon hearing Chang Yunhuan’s words, Tang Anxin’s expression softened, and she felt even more fondness for Chang Yunhuan, thinking to herself that he really had a way with words that made one feel comfortable upon listening. If only Brother Yuxi could speak like him, how happy she would be!

Thinking of Li Yuxi’s markedly different treatment towards her and He Sisi, Tang Anxin felt depressed again, and Sisi’s next statement made her feel even more stifled.

"Even though Miss Tang’s earlier words made me feel uncomfortable, Miss Tang was misled by others, so of course I won’t mind. However, Miss Tang should avoid jumping to conclusions so readily in the future!"

Sisi put on a greatly wronged look, pitifully so. Li Yuxi, Jin Yan, Tang Qiubai, and the others all comforted her, telling her not to take it to heart.

Feeling the piercing stares like dripping swords, Sisi was secretly delighted, not expecting to have such talent for playing the innocent flower. Seeing how Tang Anxin and the others looked as if they were about to breathe fire was simply too satisfying!

Cheered by this, Sisi picked up a pork rib and began to gnaw at it. Normally, eating ribs was not a very elegant sight, but a beauty, even eating a watermelon, is a feast for the eyes. Even as Sisi ate with gusto, to everyone else, she appeared irresistibly cute.

Li Yuxi even reached over a seat to place a rib in Sisi’s bowl. She initially wanted to decline, but seeing Tang Anxin’s scowl, she changed her mind and graciously accepted it, and observing Tang Anxin’s face growing even darker, her mood improved even more.

Jin Wen sipped her drink demurely, staying quiet the whole time, just silently drinking – a picture of docility. However, Sisi understood that Jin Wen’s malice was growing stronger by the minute, and even across the table, she could feel the chilling air that was quite uncomfortable.

Sisi furrowed her brow, feeling that Jin Wen’s psychological issues were really serious. She wondered if Jin Yan had noticed?

And what about those girls who died because of him? Did Jin Yan know about them?

If he did know and still recklessly made female friends, then Jin Yan’s character was truly problematic!
