“You provoked her, didn’t you?” Ye Lengan didn’t show any sympathy at all. “You know perfectly well why Li Qiaomeng was able to leave the detention center and why she confronted me at the school gate before. So, this is your payback.”

These words drained the color from Ye Xiyuan’s face, making her appear on the brink of collapse.

“Officers, you need to come up with a solution quickly!” Lin Wanqin couldn’t hold back and spoke again. “If this continues, Xiyuan will lose her life.”

If Ye Li hadn’t restrained her, she would have slapped Ye Lengan several times. With Xiyuan in imminent danger, Ye Lengan coldly observed, even adding insult to injury. If anything happened to Xiyuan, she would not let Ye Lengan off.

The police officers on the side were on high alert, but they were at a loss for a good solution. The sniDer couldn’t act. and thev couldn’t let the innocent Ye Lengan go over as a replacement. It was a challenging situation.

“Li Qiaomeng, release Xiyuan!” Ye Anyun couldn’t bear it any longer. He stood up and suggested, “I’ll go and take her place, is that acceptable?”

“Anyun!” Li Qiaomeng seemed to calm down a bit at the sight of her former lover. However, her gaze turned fierce again as if remembering something. “Impossible. What I want now is Ye Lengan. If you want Ye Xiyuan to be safe, let Ye Lengan come over.”

While speaking, Li Qiaomeng attacked again, stabbing Ye Xiyuan in the abdomen.

“Ah!” Ye Xiyuan screamed in pain once more.

The onlookers couldn’t help but gasp. These were just ordinary students, unaccustomed to such a bloody scene.

Ye Xiyuan’s body was now covered in blood, her face nearly translucent with paleness. It was evident that if this continued, even if Li Qiaomeng didn’t kill her, excessive blood loss would pose a life-threatening risk.

All eyes were on Ye Lengan, seemingly waiting for her decision.

Witnessing the situation, Zheng Anyang frowned. He stepped forward and shielded Ye Lengan from those gazes. Regardless of the perspective, he didn’t want Ye Lengan to replace Ye Xiyuan. Li Qiaomeng seemed genuinely deranged. If Ye Lengan went over now, it was uncertain if she could save Ye Xiyuan, and she might even end up losing her own life. It wasn’t worth it!

“Qiaomeng, calm down,” Ye Anyun quickly urged her. “You shouldn’t treat Xiyuan like this. Do you know the only reason you were released from the police station is because Xiyuan pleaded for you? She helped you so much; how can you bear to hurt her?”

“Help me?” Li Qiaomeng acted as if she heard a joke. “Ye Anyun, you’re a fool.

You can’t even see Ye Xiyuan’s true colors. Do you think she’s really that kind? The reason she saved me was to let me deal with Ye Lengan. Do you know the first thing she asked me to do after I came out? Ruin Ye Leng’an’s reputation here at Shengan High School. She used me like a pawn but didn’t tell me the truth about Ye Lengan, leaving me in this situation. She’s not innocent at all.”

With these revelations, everyone was shocked. The seemingly gentle Ye Xiyuan was exposed as a vindictive person who, in public, appeared to protect Ye Lengan but, in private, orchestrated schemes against him.

A two-faced person of this nature was indeed terrifying.

No one doubted the truth in Li Qiaomengs words. She had been pushed into a desperate situation, and there was no reason for her to lie.

“Impossible,” Ye Anyun instinctively countered. “Xiyuan isn’t that kind of person. She would never do such a thing.”

In his perception, Ye Xiyuan was undeniably a kind person. Such actions were beyond her.

“Li Qiaomeng, an ungrateful wretch!” Lin Wanqin, at this point, no longer cared about her image. She cursed outright, “Our family helped you, and you still want to harm Xiyuan. Are you even human? Back then, we really shouldn’t have saved you, saved an ingrate.”

Similar to Ye Anyun, Lin Wanqin didn’t believe Li Qiaomeng at all.

On the other hand, Ye Li’s eyes flickered, revealing nothing of his thoughts.

He was skeptical of Li Qiaomengs words. Unlike his wife and son, he had some understanding of Ye Xiyuan’s personality. Initially, he thought Ye Xiyuan was an innocent and kind girl. Yet, through various confrontations, he realized that Ye Xiyuan wasn’t as simple as she appeared.

Thus, he considered the possibility that Li Qiaomengs words might hold truth.

If that were the case, then Ye Xiyuan was reaping what she had sown this time.

“Believe it or not,” Li Qiaomeng sneered, “Anyway, I have only one demand now. Either you watch Ye Xiyuan bleed to death, or you ask Ye Lengan to come and replace her.”

At this point, Ye Xiyuan couldn’t utter any words. She felt utterly powerless. If not for the fear of the knife on her neck, she might have collapsed already. Even her consciousness was becoming blurred. She had never felt death so close.

For a moment, the scene was in a stalemate.

As time passed, Ye Xiyuan appeared weaker. If this continued, she wouldn’t last much longer.

“Ye Lengan, are you truly this heartless?” Lin Wanqin couldn’t hold back her criticism. “Will you watch Xiyuan die in front of you? Why are you so heartless?”

“l am just that heartless. What of it?” Ye Lengan remained unmoved, speaking like a mere spectator. “What gives you the right to ask me to trade my life for Ye Xiyuan’s? Just because you have a thicker face?”

Had it not been for the inappropriate situation, those around might have burst into laughter.

“You…” Lin Wanqin trembled with anger.

At this moment, Li Qiaomeng, holding Ye Xiyuan hostage, seemed calm on the surface, but there was an underlying sense of urgency in her heart..
