“Help me deal with Ye Xiyuan!” Completely oblivious to Ouyang Xuyan’s unusual demeanor, Qian Gumeng kept talking persistently. “That wretched Ye Xiyuan, she’s been using me. And Li Deze, can you please help me explain things to him, okay?”

Feeling waves of pain in his chest, Ouyang Xuyan took a deep breath. His eyes gradually grew cold, mirroring the emotions he once had for Qian Gumeng.

He extended his hand, directly pulling Qian Gumengs hand away, and asked,

“How do you propose we deal with Ye Xiyuan? Should 1, like I once did with Ye Lengan, seduce Ye Xiyuan? So, in your eyes, what exactly am l? A means for you to eliminate all obstacles?”

“Xuyan, what’s gotten into you?” Seemingly caught off guard by Ouyang Xuyan’s sudden words, Qian Gumeng felt somewhat bewildered. “What do you mean by this? Are you accusing me?”

“l wouldn’t dare,” Ouyang Xuyan responded with a mocking smile. “Everything I did for you in the past was willingly, so I hold no grievances. However, I’m now awake, and I no longer wish to continue being foolish.”

“So, Xuyan, are you betraying me?” Qian Gumengs eyes widened with

disbelief, her tace displaying incredulity. “Why, Why are you giving up on me at a time like this?”

She had never expected that someone she believed would never betray her would utter such words today, especially when she was going through a period of alienation, he chose to depart at this moment.

“What kind of relationship do we have? Where does the notion of betrayal come into play?” Ouyang Xuyan chuckled. “Just because I’ve assisted you in the past, does it mean I must continue to do so unconditionally in the future?

Based on what? Gumeng, I’m not betraying you; I’ve simply awakened.”

Observing Ouyang Xuyan’s countenance, Qian Gumeng felt as if something immensely significant was slipping away. She instinctively reached out to grasp Ouyang Xuyan’s hand once more, but he evaded her.

“Gumeng, you won’t be able to resolve this matter,” Ouyang Xuyan sidestepped Qian Gumeng and offered a final piece of advice. ‘You should promptly contact your family. As for the school, transferring will be the best option. I’m afraid you can’t stay here much longer.”

For the sake of their past connection, this was the last guidance he could provide. Henceforth, Qian Gumengs affairs would have no bearing on him.

“Don’t go, Ouyang Xuyan, you jerk.”

Qian Gumeng couldn’t stem the flow of tears down her face. She watched Ouyang Xuyan’s departing figure, and her heart felt desolate. She couldn’t articulate the emotions coursing through her, but she was acutely aware that from this day forward, she had truly lost Ouyang Xuyan.

This ache was even more agonizing than when she had confronted Li Deze’s misunderstanding just moments ago. At this juncture, she couldn’t decipher the exact nature of her feelings for Ouyang Xuyan. Nevertheless, she comprehended that in the future, she might not encounter someone who would unconditionally treat her well.

With these thoughts, Qian Gumeng found her tears uncontrollable.

Upon hearing the news of Qian Gumengs transfer, Ye Lengan wasn’t particularly surprised but did harbor some regret. During their earlier conversation, she had secretly administered a drug to Qian Gumeng. This drug was somewhat akin to a hallucinogen but had distinct properties. It could magnify preexisting suspicions in a person’s heart limitlessly. To put it plainly, Qian Gumeng had already harbored doubts about Ye Xiyuan, and the drug merely amplified that inkling, compelling Qian Gumeng to confront Ye Xiyuan.

Regrettably, the drug had no discernible effect on Ye Xiyuan, but it resulted in Qian Gumengs expulsion.

In the days that followed, Ye Lengan had no particular engagements, so she remained at school. However, over these few days, she conceived an idea, to accelerate her studies and sit for the college entrance examination early.

Before long, the banquet to celebrate Murong Yanshu formally taking in her goddaughter was held as scheduled. The event took place at a hotel under the Nangong family’s banner..
