"It's ridiculous that I don't even know who it is." Zeng Li looked back and forth between her and Wen Xi with a look of disdain.
"Of course it's you." Wen Xi patted the angry Tan Miao and glared at her with a sharp gaze. "Not only did you help your master pick a fight with me, but you even dragged a little kid into this. You're really out of your league."
"What? Are you feeling guilty? If you don't want others to know, then don't do it. If you tell a lie, you have to lie countless times to cover it up. If you can't clear yourself, why should it be my business?"
"Telling one lie means you have to lie countless times to cover it up? Well said! But I'll just return it to you as it is."
"What do you mean?"
"Shouldn't you know exactly what I mean? Honestly, I really envy your mental toughness. It's quite good. You can lie without blushing. I'm not as good as you in that regard."
"Who lied? I didn't!" Zeng Li still insisted.
"Oh, really? Then just keep spreading rumors like this. Xingzai's parents have been working abroad with Doctors Without Borders for many years and have been awarded for their meritorious service. If you slander them like this, I'm sure you'll be going to jail soon."
What?
That child is really not her illegitimate child?
Seeing that Wen Xi didn't seem to be lying, Zeng Li was shocked and her face turned pale instantly.
She secretly glanced at Xue Ziqi, and seeing that he looked as if nothing had happened, she felt a little relieved.
It shouldn't be a big deal.
Even if the truth is as Wen Xi said, it should not be a cause for fear. Otherwise, why doesn't the eldest daughter of the Xue family show any fear at all?
As long as she supports me behind the scenes, what can happen to me?
Thinking of this, Zeng Li felt more at ease.
"I don't understand what you are talking about. What's the reward for meritorious service? Everyone can make up a story." She snorted and said no more.
The more you talk, the more mistakes you make. Anyway, I have done everything Xue Ziqi asked me to do.
Everyone was confused by the conversation between the two and didn't know who to believe.
Defamation is no small matter, but what Zeng Li saw with her own eyes...
The atmosphere was deadlocked for a moment.
"Forget it, forget it. I think this is just a misunderstanding. Let's not argue about it anymore," the person in charge of the dance clapped his hands and said, "We've wasted a lot of time. Let's get the dance started as soon as possible."
No one answered.
The boys who received the most votes had no intention of stepping forward to help.
Even if there is no illegitimate child, what about the other negative information?
Fighting, skipping classes, changing boyfriends more frequently than a revolving lantern...
When it comes to rumors, most people's first reaction is that there is no smoke without fire.
"Since no one is willing to dance with her, let's change people. We can't just stand here, right?" Zeng Li said sarcastically after receiving Xue Ziqi's eye signal.
She decided to go all out. She knew that Miss Xue would not miss such an opportunity to show off, so she decided to do her a favor.
Xue Ziqi ranked second in votes, so of course she was the one who got the first chance to be on the Wen Xi list.
"This..." The person in charge glanced at Wen Xi who seemed to be smiling beside him, and then looked at Xue Ziqi who was standing not far away with a very imposing manner. He felt that he could not afford to offend these two great gods.
Just as she was hesitating, a male voice suddenly sounded.
"Who said there's no one left?"
The man's voice was cold, low, and full of magnetism, just like the notes played by a cello, floating quietly into the ears of everyone present.
The person in charge hurriedly looked in the direction of the voice, wondering which junior student was so angelic. Thank God, he solved her urgent problem!
