Her reaction undoubtedly confirmed Lin Jianxue's words.

Lin Jianxue looked at her face which suddenly turned pale, and she was too lazy to even maintain the cold smile in her eyes, leaving only calmness.

She tilted her head slightly, and her voice was neither too loud nor too low, just loud enough for everyone to hear clearly:

"Why stop?"

"Didn't you just swear that you didn't know who the man who brought me back was?"

"Fu Zhewei."

Lin Jianxue uttered these three words clearly and saw Liu Liwen shudder suddenly.

"Why, now that I hear this name, I remember it again?"

"That love letter... I remember it was written with such sincerity and heartfelt emotion. Coincidentally, I think I actually brought it with me."

She pretended to lift her foot, as if she really wanted to go back to the house to get it.

"Take it out and read it to you in public, so you can relive your past and help you recover your memory. Isn't that good?"

"No! No more!"

Liu Liwen's face turned red and white, and she didn't dare to look at Zhang Ruichen's face, which was so gloomy that it was about to drip water.

She didn't dare to gamble at all!

She didn't dare to bet whether Lin Jianxue really had the letter with her!

If Lin Jianxue really read it out in front of all the educated youth...how would she have the nerve to stay here?!

It only takes a moment to weigh the pros and cons.

Liu Liwen forced a smile that was uglier than crying, and reached out to pat Lin Jianxue's shoulder, but Lin Jianxue dodged it sideways without leaving a trace.

Her hand froze in mid-air, feeling extremely embarrassed. She could only withdraw it awkwardly and forcefully try to smooth things over:

"So, it's Fu Zhawei... Hey! Look at what a fuss this is! We're all high school classmates, we see each other every day. If you had just told me earlier, everything would have been fine!"

Lin Jianxue nodded slightly.

"Oh? You know him?"

“That’s wonderful.”

"Since they're old classmates, I can help out a bit, bring some food, and even give them a ride when it gets dark. That shouldn't be a problem, right?"

"You can't just let Liu Liwen go out with a gay man who's not a wild man by your side at all times,"

——The words "not a wild man" caused a few suppressed sneers from the surroundings.

"They won't allow me to, seeing as we grew up in the same compound and are old classmates. Out of friendship, they might offer some support, send some things, or perhaps... be sent back to the educated youth camp?"

The meaning behind this statement is so obvious!

You, Liu Liwen, can go out with Zhang Ruichen together all day long, and I, Lin Jianxue, have some contact with Fu Zhewei, a high school classmate. How come it becomes "fooling around" and "shameless"?

Liu Liwen was so angry that she was shaking all over, her teeth were chattering, and she felt both ashamed and angry.

But when Lin Jianxue said that, she couldn't refute it!

What could she do? Could she admit that she was just jealous of Lin Jianxue and just disliked her?

Amidst everyone's amusing gazes, Liu Liwen could only squeeze out a few words from between her teeth:

"Yes... that's the truth..."

Lin Jianxue didn't look at her again.

Her eyes slowly swept over every person in the lobby who was listening attentively to the excitement. Most of them avoided her gaze when it met hers.

Afterwards, her voice clearly resounded throughout the cafeteria:

"Besides,"

"I, Lin Jianxue, and Fu Zhewei, are both single right now."

"Marry a man, marry a woman."

"What era is this? The government advocates free love."

"Even if I really have a crush on an old classmate and want to pursue a relationship here, that's a private matter between the two of us."

"It seems...it's not your turn yet to point fingers and gossip behind my back, right?"
