Chapter 407: A Useful Tool 3

In fact, many of her former friends were not as enthusiastic as before when they saw her. Some of them even avoided her as if she was something dirty.

In the past, she and Ye Xiyuan were almost inseparable. But now, Ye Xiyuan had said that in order to avoid suspicion, it was best for them not to be seen together too often at school. Otherwise, it would arouse suspicion. If Li Deze

became suspicious and found out they were trying to frame Ye Lengan, it would definitely leave a bad impression on Li Deze.

However, the only thing that made her feel fortunate was that Ye Xiyuan had already promised to help her explain things to Li Deze. At that time, Ye Xiyuan would also facilitate a reconciliation between her and Li Deze.

Just as Qian Gumeng was walking with her head lowered, she accidentally bumped into someone. She was about to reflexively apologize when she saw who it was and almost jumped in shock.

“Ye Lengan, what are you doing here?”

Looking at Qian Gumeng who had collided with her, Ye Lengan couldn’t help but frown. “Do you understand the situation? It’s you who ran into me. What right do you have to shout and scream at me here?”

She hadn’t expected to run into Qian Gumeng at this moment. She had been walking down the school path when she saw a message from Huangfu Ruiling. She went to the side to stop and read it and didn’t expect to be bumped from behind before she could even reply.

Although it was partly her fault for not being alert enough, the main culprit should be the person who bumped into her, right? However, she was surprised that it turned out to be Qian Gumeng. Moreover, Qian Gumeng was clearly ready to play the victim and complain first.

“Ye Lengan, you still have the nerve to come to school,” Qian Gumeng said resentfully. “You’ve ruined me to this extent, and now you actually dare to show your face in front of me?”

The person she hated most right now was undoubtedly Ye Lengan. At the banquet, although there was no evidence, she just knew Ye Lengan must have slipped that necklace into her bag. If Ye Lengan hadn’t framed her, she wouldn’t have to face these people’s judgmental glances today.

“Qian Gumeng, don’t spout baseless accusations,” Ye Lengan said much more calmly. “The reason you ended up like this is because you got greedy and wanted to steal Ye Xiyuan’s necklace. I didn’t tell you to steal anything. What does it have to do with me?”

“Nonsense!” Hearing Ye Leng’an’s words, Qian Gumeng seemed rather flustered. “l didn’t steal that necklace. You framed me. l…

“l framed you?” Ye Lengan acted as if she had just heard a joke. ‘Qian Gumeng, why would I randomly frame you? There were so many people at the banquet. Why would it just happen to be you?”

“That’s because…” The words were about to come out of her mouth, but she stopped abruptly.

Although Qian Gumeng was angry, she still maintained some rationality. She knew very well that there were some things she could not say. The reason why she was certain Ye Lengan had framed her was because the necklace was originally meant to be used to incriminate Ye Lengan.

“What, you can’t say it, can you?” Ye Lengan sneered. “It was you and Ye

Xiyuan who conspired to use that necklace to frame me, right? But in the end, 1 didn’t expect the necklace to show up in your bag. This is what you call harming others only to end up harming yourself! ”

“It really is you!” Qian Gumeng said through gritted teeth. “Ye Lengan, you b*tch, 1 won’t let you off.”

Hearing the vulgar words from Qian Gumengs mouth, Ye Lengan immediately slapped her across the face.

A crisp slapping sound rang out, and a bright red imprint appeared on Qian Gumengs cheek.

As if caught off guard, Qian Gumeng was slapped before she could react, and she felt a fiery pain on her cheek. Even though she couldn’t see it, she knew her cheek must be red and swollen by now.

“You hit me!” Qian Gumeng covered her face, as if unable to believe what was happening.

“That’s right, I was the one who hit you,” Ye Lengan said coldly as she looked at Qian Gumeng. There was no longer any hint of a smile on her face. “Qian Gumeng, if I hear such foul language from your mouth again, don’t blame me for what happens next. At that time, I won’t just hit you, I’ll make sure you can never speak another word again..”
