Chapter 1912: Paranoid, Selfish, Vicious, and Jealous

“Look, since you’ve returned, you’ve met Xu Yunyun three times in total—and each time, Pingting was there. So, it makes sense that she misunderstood and thought you liked Pingting.”

“But every time I talked to Pingting, she was present. She heard everything I said to Pingting. We’ve only casually chatted, and I’ve never shown any signs of liking Pingting.”

Nangong Nuannuan shook her head. “Your Xu Yunyun is obviously a paranoid, selfish, vicious, and jealous person. A person like her would be upset that you hadn’t made an enemy of another woman, let alone you being friendly to one. We can only imagine how much she hated Pingting when she thought that you liked her or even simply had a good impression of her.”

Xu Feiyang could not accept Nangong Nuannuan’s words. After all, Wu Pingting was Xu Yunyun’s best friend. They had been friends for more than a decade. They had been playing together since they were young due to the business relationship their families have. How could she have reacted so violently when I only said a few words to Wu Pingting? How could she arrange for someone to not only kidnap her best friend, but also hurt her?”

He had seen the video of Wu Pingting being discovered. Her body had been in a terrible state.

Even as the leader of a gang, he could not help but sigh at how perverted the attack on Wu Pingting had been.

At first, he thought that the Wu family must have deeply offended someone. However, he was now being told that Wu Pingting had been viciously attacked just because he had spoken to her a few more times than he had to Yunyun.

Just as Xu Feiyang was about to refute what she had said, Nangong Nuannuan asked again, “Let me ask you this. If you and Xu Yunyun rarely interact, why did you come with her when she said she wanted to visit her best friend?”

Xu Feiyang glanced at Nangong Nuannuan. He did not want to say that he had come here because he wanted to visit Nuannuan. Instead, he answered, “I have some financial ties to the Wu family. Also, Pingting was like a younger sister who stuck by my side when we were young. When I heard that something had happened to her, and when Xu Yunyun begged me to come with her, I did not hesitate to agree.”

“Did she badmouth Pingting in any way during your journey here? For example, did she say anything along the lines of ‘Since Pingting has lost her virginity, no good men will want her in the future,’?”

Xu Feiyang thought for a moment before realizing that Nuannuan’s words were indeed the case.

Seeing the incredulous expression on Xu Feiyang’s face, the members of the Wu family grew furious.

They figured that what happened to Pingting was a result of the Wu family or Pingting herself offending somebody. However, after a week of investigating all the enemies of the Wu family and seeing that none of them had made a move, their search for leads came to a halt.

They never expected that the person who hurt Pingting could be Xu Yunyun, the girl who had been playing with the children of the Wu family and had been best friends with Pingting ever since they were little.

“Actually, her palm was not yet bleeding when she saw you looking at me at first. It was only after we talked for a bit that I noticed she had started to dig her nails into her palm.

“The reason why I guessed that Xu Yunyun was the one who harmed Pingting was because when I first entered the room, the way that she looked at Pingting was like the way she looked at me just now. Hence, I figured that she thought you liked Pingting. To ruin your feelings for her, Yunyun wanted to make Pingting inferior to her. She found someone to kidnap Pingting and ruin her body. That way, you wouldn’t like her anymore.”
