From her expression, it seemed like a topic that was difficult to broach.

Mu Xiaoxiao said teasingly, “Just say it. I won’t beat people. I don’t want Yin Shaojie to be so fierce.”

She took a deep breath and finally found courage. She looked at Mu Xiaoxiao and said, “I’m sorry!”

Mu Xiaoxiao didn’t know what she meant by that apology. She didn’t reply but kept listening.

He Qiya dropped her head, looking sorry as she said, “Actually, the president didn’t send me any gifts. I lied to my friends. I was the one who bought the Chanel bag for myself…”

“Why?” Mu Xiaoxiao asked, her tone was filled only with curiosity.

“I…” He Qiya was very embarrassed, her ears were red and her head drooped lower and lower.

Mu Xiaoxiao said deliberately, “Can you look up and talk to me? You acting like this… makes me feel like I’m so ugly that you don’t even want to look at me.”

“No.” He Qiya looked up at her eyes.

Mu Xiaoxiao’s smile was so cheerful and sweet as though they were only having an idle chat instead of talking about serious things.

He Qiya felt a lot more relaxed upon seeing her smile.

“I’m sorry,” she said.

Mu Xiaoxiao was unsure whether to laugh or cry, “What’s with the ‘sorry’ again? Can’t you use some other words?”

Mu Xiaoxiao’s smile was getting to He Qiya because she smiled as well. She lamented, “You’re so magnanimous. I thought that you’d be angry about the gift.”

“So you thought I’d hate you?” Mu Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows and gave a playful smile.

He Qiya was startled as she looked at her.

She hadn’t expect her to be so blunt.

“I’m someone… who goes by intuition. I don’t hate you,” Mu Xiaoxiao said to her.

She had some recollection of He Qiya. After all, she had been around the Student Union with Yin Shaojie often, so she had seen the department heads a couple of times. Though she wasn’t very familiar with them, she had at least some impression of them.

Though she didn’t have much of an impression of He Qiya, at least it wasn’t a bad one.

She always seemed to be smiling and amiable. And she seemed to be on good terms with the members of the Student Union, always talking and laughing around them.

According to Mu Xiaoxiao’s intuition, this girl couldn’t be someone with ill intentions.

“Thank you.” He Qiya said gratefully, her expression was complicated. Then she smiled and said, “Actually, I always thought that you were a very nice girl and I’ve wanted to get acquainted with you, but I didn’t dare to.”

“Why? Am I that scary?” Mu Xiaoxiao asked funnily.

He Qiya shook her head.

Mu Xiaoxiao said, “It’s because of that Yin Shaojie, right?”

He Qiya gently nodded. She felt more relaxed after the conversation.

This allowed her to face her wrongdoing squarely.

She said to Mu Xiaoxiao, “I’m sorry, I was too vain! Last year, on my birthday, I accidentally told my friends that I liked Young Master Jie. One of them had a boyfriend who was my ex. They triggered me and in a moment of impulse, I went to buy that Chanel bag and told them that Young Master Jie gave it to me. All this time I’ve been living a lie.”

Fortunately, her friends weren’t studying at Shangde so they couldn’t find out the truth.
