Tang Jun looked at Yuan Yaxin and tried to smooth things over: "Ms. Yuan, I don't know what kind of argument you had just now. But I don't think it was Miss Lan who pushed you into the sea. There may be a misunderstanding."
Yuan Yaxin had a cold expression on her face and did not accept Tang Jun's explanation, but she did not refute Tang Jun either.
Tang Jun stood up, walked to me, and pulled me to stand in front of Yuan Yaxin.
She persuaded me, "I know you definitely didn't mean to do it. But after all, Miss Yuan fell into the sea and was frightened. Just apologize to Mr. Yuan and let this matter go."
Tang Jun didn't know the truth, but I was very grateful to her for being willing to help me out in front of everyone.
However, if I apologize to Yuan Yaxin, it means that I admit that I pushed her down.
I refused without hesitation, "I won't apologize to her. She fell into the sea because she lost her balance. I didn't push her, I saved her. How can I, a rescuer, apologize to him? How can this be justified?"
Tang Jun was slightly surprised, obviously not knowing who to trust.
Yuan Yaxin looked at me angrily, directly confirming my guilt: "Lan Shan, you dare not take responsibility for what you did, right? You pushed me into the water first, and then hypocritically asked for help. If the rescuers hadn't arrived in time, I would have been buried in the sea by now. And now you are clearing yourself of all charges!"
I shuddered in my heart. According to her, even calling for help was part of my plan.
She is really good at creating something out of nothing.
The only thing I can blame is that there was no one else on the deck at the time, and no one could prove for me that I did not push Yuan Yaxin.
At this moment, Lu Zhiyuan squeezed out from the crowd.
He immediately ran to Yuan Yaxin's side, gently pressing his hands on her shoulders with a look of concern on his face.
"Are you okay? Are you hurt? How did you fall into the sea?"
Yuan Yaxin immediately pretended to be aggrieved in front of Lu Zhiyuan, and tears fell.
"Brother Zhiyuan, I know that Lan Shan was upset by me accompanying you to the dinner, so she pushed me into the sea. I was really scared. I thought I was going to die here today..."
That pitiful look really makes me feel sorry for her.
After hearing Yuan Yaxin's explanation, Lu Zhiyuan looked at me with suspicion.
At this moment, I was discouraged.
I was already disappointed by the concerned and anxious look he showed towards Yuan Yaxin just now, and the suspicion he looked at me at this moment made me feel even more heartbroken.
After Yuan Yaxin’s crying just now, Lu Zhiyuan will definitely believe her words and think that I am a vicious woman, right?
Let him think whatever he wants, I didn't do it anyway.
I thought Lu Zhiyuan was going to question me again, but he just looked at me deeply, then turned his head and whispered a few words to Yuan Yaxin's ear.
I was surprised and couldn't hear what he said. I just saw Yuan Yaxin's eyes tremble and her expression became flustered and complicated.
After Lu Zhiyuan finished speaking, Yuan Yaxin nodded and Lu Zhiyuan helped her up.
Facing the organizer Tang Jun, Lu Zhiyuan said calmly, "It's just a misunderstanding. There's no need to call the police. I'm sorry to have caused trouble for Mr. Tang."
"It's okay." Tang Jun smiled gently, "As long as Miss Yuan is okay."
Lu Zhiyuan helped Yuan Yaxin leave and passed by me without saying a word.
What he said to Tang Jun was particularly irritating to me, and I couldn't help but wonder about his intentions.
What did he mean? Was he saying "I'm sorry" for me? Was I the one who caused trouble for Tang Jun?
