Chapter 187 - Naive and Gullible (2/2)

“What are you going to do? She seemed to be looking for you…”

“I will do nothing. Since she came to see you, it means that she has investigated me. In our cla.s.s, who else do you think might become her private eye?”

As Yun Xi said this, Yang Lu grasped the meaning of her words and turned her head directly to look in Liang Xinyi’s direction.

“So, since she hasn’t made any moves yet, let’s not get too nervous.”

Yun Xi gazed at Yang Lu’s innocent countenance and sighed. “Yang Lu, you and the cla.s.s leader…”

Upon hearing Li Sinuo mentioned, Yang Lu looked nervous. She’d already spilled all the beans about the framing incident.

After Yun Xi had a.n.a.lyzed it for her, she’d realized that she had also become the cla.s.s leader’s p.a.w.n to frame Yun Xi.

After being used by two people, she blamed herself for being so stupid. How could she have been stupid enough to be friends with a phony person such as Li Sinuo.

“I went to her and talked to her about it. I was already being very nice by not ratting her out. From now on, she and I won’t cross paths. I won’t be friends with a person like her.”

Yun Xi smiled and asked, “Do you think that I’m trying to cause a rift between the two of you?”

Someone as naive as Yang Lu was really vulnerable to being used by others.

Yang Lu didn’t have an evil heart and was actually quite straightforward once one got to know her. Her pa.s.sionate disposition was quite endearing.

“I’m not stupid. I can tell right from wrong. Why would you be friends with me and tutor me if you still held a grudge? Li Sinuo is prideful and haughty, so she approached me just to use me, and I was dumb enough to fall for it. It’s bad enough that I fell for it once, but if I didn’t learn my lesson that would be truly dumb.”

Yang Lu was intelligent and kindhearted. She took everything Yun Xi had said to her to heart.

It was only after she’d a.n.a.lyzed the framing incident that she gradually began to understand the complexity of human nature.

She had been too naive and gullible, and she hadn’t been able to hold her own against their schemes at all.
