Chapter 181: The Beauty’s Invitation
The next day, after class, Gu Fan called Lu Yi and Jie to a secluded place and began to share what had happened the previous night.
Upon learning that Lin Xi had been attacked, Lu Yi and Jie were both shocked; how could they have guessed that someone would dare to confront Lin Xi? It was as if they had lost their minds.
However, according to Gu Fan’s account, Lin Xi was almost caught by them. That is to say, Lin Xi might be tricky to deal with, but she wasn’t invincible. So, if someone truly targeted Lin Xi and made every effort to trap her, she would inevitably struggle to fend them off on her own.
Lu Yi was hesitant: "Bro, are you telling us about this because you want to hear our thoughts, or do you already have a plan?"
"A plan? What kind of plan?" Gu Fan was a bit puzzled, unsure of what Lu Yi was trying to imply.
However, Jie chimed in: "I understand what Lu Yi means. You’re telling us about this incident because you want to hear our thoughts on it, or maybe you, Gu Fan, want to help Lin Xi, but don’t know whether you should. So, you want to hear our opinion."
"Well, I..." Gu Fan scratched his head, finding it difficult to respond.
Lu Yi shook his head, patted Gu Fan’s shoulder, and earnestly said: "This Lin Xi and the person who dared to harm her, we’re just ordinary college students, we don’t have the qualifications to be involved in such conflicts. We’ve already risked enough. After experiencing some ups and downs, we finally understand that living a regular life is best for us."
After hearing this, Gu Fan sighed deeply, thinking that Lu Yi’s words were rational. Furthermore, this Lin Xi was no longer the girl Gu Fan used to fight for, so it’s better not to meddle in her affairs.
"Alright, let’s drop this matter." Gu Fan nodded in agreement, while Lu Yi and Jie sighed in relief. They were worried that Gu Fan, unable to let go of his past feelings, would endanger himself for Lin Xi, even though he knew she had changed and no longer loved him.
Despite his decision, Gu Fan still felt somewhat uneasy, wondering silently whether it was truly okay to turn a blind eye.
