Slapping Evidence on Her Face

"Chen Yuan isn't back in school yet and even my friends don't know about this. Only Wu Jie had lunch with her yesterday."

Qiao Nian sounded calm and indifferent, but also extremely piercing. "I don't think there's a need to blow things up this way! Do you think I told Wu Jie this, or she did?"

Shen Jingyan's political ups and downs all these decades were not for nothing.

He already knew what had happened after she said that.

His expression sank as he tried to hide the fury in his eyes. He didn't say anything as he turned to face Qiao Chen with eyes as cold as ice.

Qiao Chen looked extremely anxious. She could barely stand still and her tears were about to fall. She tried explaining, "I… I did talk about Wei Qi's matter. But I was just chatting with my classmates and accidentally spilled it. I didn't join in the conversation and didn't mean to blow this up."

She was sniffling and sobbing, looking very pitiful indeed.
