Li Yan’s countenance shifted, assuming a grave and earnest expression. If Bai Xue were to face expulsion, Li Yan would go to any lengths necessary.

But who did Yue Ling think she was? She wanted Li Yan to offend the Jiang Family? Bai Xue may be kind-hearted, but Li Yan was not.

“You possess a naivete and kindness that blinds you,” Li Yan voiced, his words laden with sincerity. “You fail to comprehend that Yue Ling was the one who issued the bet. Was it not Yue Ling who provoked Jiang Ling’er in the first place?”

Bai Xue feigned astonishment and replied, “I… I hadn’t considered that deeply. Yue Ling is usually so amiable.”

Li Yan tenderly caressed Bai Xue’s hair and retorted, “You are too trusting. In your eyes, everyone appears virtuous. She sought to exploit the conflict between you and Jiang Ling’er, merely cloaking it in concern for your well-being.”

Bai Xue naturally understood in her heart, and she also knew that Yue Ling did not do it all for her. However, in front of Li Yan, Bai Xue must not betray that knowledge.

“But everyone believes that Yue Ling provoked Jiang Ling’er because of me. If 1 don’t take action, won’t it disappoint those people?” Bai Xue voiced her concern.

“Little Xue,” Li Yan responded with a solemn mien, “I acknowledge your kindness. However, this matter involves not only the Jiang family but also the Wen family. Dealing with them won’t be a simple task.”

Bai Xue swiftly weighed the pros and cons. Retaining Yue Ling would deal a blow to Jiang Ling’er’s pride, yet antagonizing the Wen Family seemed unwise.

In particular, Bai Xue didn’t have to make Li Yan bleed for Yue Ling. All she wanted was to disgust Jiang Ling’er.

“I understand,” Bai Xue acquiesced. “1 shall await Assistant Lin’s updates. If Ling’er truly cheated, 1 will persuade Yue Ling to let her go.”

Li Yan, witnessing Bai Xue’s unwavering kindness, uttered, “If Jiang Ling’er is indeed cheating, there’s no need for you to persuade her. Merely do what you must. Those who know you shall venerate your benevolence, while the ignorant shall judge you harshly.”

Bai Xue nodded obediently, concealing her ulterior motives.

After lunch, Li Yan escorted Bai Xue back to the school.

Returning to the classroom, Bai Xue’s gaze fell upon Yue Ling, who lay despondently on the desk, inciting a flicker of repulsion within her.

Approaching quietly, Bai Xue whispered, “Lingling, do not despair. Have you forgotten that Miss Wen sent some documents to Jiang Ling’er?”

Yue Ling’s eyes widened with realization, excitement brimming as she exclaimed, “Little Xue, are you suggesting…?”

“Let us not speak so brazenly. As of now, we lack concrete evidence,” Bai Xue cautioned.

“It must be true,” Yue Ling exclaimed with fervor. “But what evidence do we need?”

Bai Xue surveyed their surroundings, leaning in to whisper, “Let us seek a quieter setting. It is too crowded here.”

Though hesitant, Yue Ling recognized her dependence on Bai Xue and reluctantly complied.

Soon, they found themselves in a nearby milk tea shop.

Bai Xue purchased some milk tea and settled into a secluded corner.

Observing the patrons, Bai Xue noted the sizable number of nearby students—a fertile ground for their cause.

Taking a sip of milk tea, Yue Ling declared, “Bai Xue, Jiang Ling’er must have cheated.”

Furrowing her brow, Bai Xue deliberately whispered, “It is merely speculation.

1 have dispatched someone to investigate. You should reserve your excitement until we receive the results.”

“Must we investigate Jiang Ling’er’s previous academic records?” Yue Ling grumbled discontentedly.

“We lack tangible evidence,” Bai Xue explained. “We cannot jump to conclusions. Let’s not be too impulsive now.”

Though it seemed as if Bai Xue aimed to dissuade her, her true intention was to incite Yue Ling into spreading rumors.

“Why should I suppress my excitement?” Yue Ling retorted indignantly.

“Did she cause you trouble today?” Bai Xue inquired cautiously, aware of Jiang Ling’er’s impulsive nature.

“It’s rather peculiar,” Yue Ling remarked. “She has yet to confront me.”

Bai Xue narrowed her eyes. Was Jiang Ling’er truly willing to let the matter slide so easily? If that were the case, how could Bai Xue pass up this opportunity? She said, “Do you believe Jiang Ling’er feels guilty, thus deciding to let it go?”

Yue Ling’s voice carried a note of astonishment as she exclaimed, “Jiang Ling’er cheated and still intends to conceal the truth?”

“Don’t be so impulsive,” Bai Xue pretended, her words laced with concern. “If she doesn’t say anything, it’ll be good for you too. At least you won’t be forced to drop out of school.”

Yue Ling declared, “She cheated. It is Jiang Ling’er who shall be expelled, not me.”

Yue Ling’s elation made it evident that she believed she had already amassed evidence of Jiang Ling’er’s transgressions.

This was precisely what Bai Xue desired. “Oh, hush your voice,” Bai Xue whispered, feigning caution..
