Xuemei deliberately looked at He Wanting and the others with a serious expression and said, "How do you know that what I said is not true?"
He Wenting said loudly, "Ah? What you said is true." Then she and the others looked at Xuemei in disbelief.
Xuemei was being watched by them. Recalling what she had just said to He Ping, she felt extremely embarrassed and wanted to find a hole to crawl into. However, she still had to pretend that nothing had happened and spoke calmly.
