Lin Wu said, "The truth of the story is this: C bribed B, and the two of them put on a joint act to make A lose all hope in love, leading to his constant melancholy, and ultimately, C successfully won him over."
Shana slowly nodded her head, making sense of it all. In that case, the story could explain why C couldn't pursue A without putting in some effort.
Shana asked, "How do you know about this? It's a private matter between the three of them. Are you A, B, or C?"
Lin Wu didn't rush to answer but countered, "Which one do you think I am?"
After pondering for a while, Shana said, "The story is set up with C arranging for B to seduce A, then leading A to despair. B didn't actually date anyone, so you must be B, the one who sold himself out for money."
