One possibility is ruled out.
A sharp glint flashed in Mingyao's eyes, but before anyone could notice, it was hidden in her dark, expressionless gaze.
Humans are driven by self-interest.
For two people with a conflict to reconcile, they either need to have a common goal or a significant mutual interest.
Xia Kexing and Du Feng could not possibly have any common goals; the only thing that could connect the two of them was interests.
As for what those benefits were, Mingyao had no idea.
To Mingyao's surprise, Xia Kexing was capable of finding a way to use Du Feng.
Unfortunately, he didn't use his intelligence for good; he only thought about how to harm people.
"Xia Kexing, how do you know more about my situation than I do?" Mingyao frowned, looking at Xia Kexing with a wronged expression. "Have you been following me 24 hours a day?"
Xia Kexing's lips twitched twice, and she retorted sarcastically, "Would the things you did warrant being followed?"
"Su Xueya, you'll get your comeuppance sooner or later!"
She was spitting everywhere, and her smugness was almost overflowing.
Mingyao blinked, and tears streamed down her face.
In no time, she was crying her eyes out, "Xia Kexing, so what if I'm prettier than you? I know you have a crush on CEO Pei."
"But I never expected that President Pei would appreciate me."
"I'm already married, there's no need for me to compete with you for a man."
"Waaah, do you really have to take your resentment about not being able to get CEO Pei out on me?"
Upon hearing this, Xia Kexing immediately lost her temper.
She glared at Mingyao, her eyes burning with rage, as if she wanted to annihilate Mingyao in the next second.
"You wretch, what nonsense are you spouting!"
"I simply..."
"How dare you smear me!"
Mingyao's words enraged Xia Kexing, whose face turned pale and then red, showing just how angry she was.
The students watching suddenly realized, "No wonder Xia Kexing is targeting Su Xueya like this."
"That's right, that's not the case at all. I really don't know how Xia Kexing can just spout nonsense like that."
Seeing that all her efforts were about to be ruined, Xia Kexing clenched her fists and glared angrily at her classmates.
"Don't make wild guesses!"
"Su Xueya said that to slander me!"
Xia Kexing's explanation was completely unbelievable; the classmates had watched in broad daylight as she smeared Mingyao.
A female classmate, bursting with a sense of justice, arrogantly retorted: "When you slandered Su Xueya, why didn't you admit that you were spreading rumors?"
Other classmates chimed in, "It was clearly Du Feng who was harassing Su Xueya, but in your mouth, it became Su Xueya seducing Du Feng."
"Xia Kexing, if you can't see the truth, then donate your eyes to those who need them."
The classmates didn't hold back in their mockery, their vicious words like poisonous vines, entwining Xia Kexing's body.
She clenched her fists, glaring at Mingyao with eyes wide with fury.
If she could, she would love to tear Mingyao to pieces with her eyes!
Ding Qingle was stunned, unable to believe what her classmates were saying.
What her classmates said was completely different from the unexpected message Xia Kexing conveyed to her.
She stared at Xia Kexing with a questioning look and asked in a deep voice, "Xia Kexing, what exactly happened?"
"I... I never expected things to turn out this way."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Haonan's deep, sarcastic voice came: "Ever since Su Xueya came to the party, you've been constantly making sarcastic remarks."
"Xia Kexing, don't you think you've gone too far?"
"It's been so long since we last met, and you immediately started verbally attacking Su Xueya."
"You're even pretending to speak well of Ding Qingle and misleading her. What are you really up to?"
Li Haonan's resounding voice, like a sharp blade, tore away Xia Kexing's last fig leaf.
Her face turned pale and then flushed, but she still stubbornly insisted, "I... I just can't stand Su Xueya. What's wrong with saying a few words to her?"
"Besides, when Ding Qingle and I came back, we saw Su Xueya and Du Feng holding hands. It would be strange if we didn't misunderstand."
Xia Kexing turned her head and said indignantly, "If it weren't for the examples of Su Xueya and Du Feng, how could I have misunderstood?"
"Blame Su Xueya and Du Feng!"
After hearing Xia Kexing's sophistry, Mingyao almost burst out laughing.
Why didn't I realize before that Xia Kexing's mouth was so skillful?
She's good at making excuses and pushing all the blame off her.
Du Feng was very dissatisfied with Xia Kexing's attempt to absolve herself of all responsibility.
He frowned and said angrily, "Xia Kexing, you've been lying to me from beginning to end!"
The students were stunned again, never expecting that Du Feng and Xia Kexing were related.
Xia Kexing didn't expect Du Feng to suddenly get angry.
A flicker of panic crossed her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure.
"Du Feng, stop being a mad dog and biting people indiscriminately!"
She turned to look at Ding Qingle and said indignantly, "Xiao Ding, you shouldn't have believed this scumbag in the first place!"
"He never tells the truth!"
Ding Qingle stood still, her bloodshot eyes fixed on Du Feng.
What is your relationship with Xia Kexing?
Xia Kexing was able to maintain a normal expression, but her face immediately fell after hearing Ding Qingle's words.
She grabbed Ding Qingle's hand anxiously and said in a panic, "Xiao Ding, why did you listen to a scumbag?"
"Let's go quickly."
Ding Qingle ignored Xia Kexing's pleas, her face stiff as she turned away, her eyes fixed on Du Feng, and asked again in an unquestionable tone, "What is your relationship with Xia Kexing?"
The students and Mingyao all focused their attention on Du Feng's face.
Would you consider this an unexpected surprise at today's gathering?
Du Feng slowly took out his phone and opened her WeChat chat history with Xia Kexing.
"I ran into Xia Kexing by chance before the class reunion."
"I thought she was your friend before, so I added her back in touch."
After Ding Qingle read the chat content clearly, her face gradually turned cold until it became as cold as ice.
Xia Kexing screamed "Ah!", snatched Du Feng's phone, and slammed it to the ground.
"Du Feng, you're trying to slander me!"
She glared at Du Feng with uncontrollable rage, wishing she could tear him to pieces and devour him.
Du Feng curled his lips into a sneer and said, "Do I need to slander you?"
"Xia Kexing, you've really got a good plan!"
"Using the reconciliation between me and Ding Qingle to smear Su Xueya?"
He tilted his head, his smile twisted, but his smiling eyes were fixed on Xia Kexing.
"Xia Kexing, how come I never realized you were so smart before?"
Based on Du Feng's conversation, the students present roughly guessed some of the answers.
It must have been Xia Kexing who smeared Mingyao in front of Du Feng, causing Du Feng to misunderstand Su Xueya.
So as soon as they met, Du Feng started to pester Ming Yao relentlessly!
According to Du Feng, Xia Kexing's face was deathly pale, devoid of any color.
"And this Su Xueya, is she a fake?"
Du Feng picked up the phone from the ground; it could still be turned on.
