Yan Yi smiled at her, and she felt a slight relief. In an instant, she thought of a way out: to pretend she didn’t know her.
“Ah Yi, who is this?” Yan Nian looked at Tang Guo with confusion and asked, “Is there someone new in our squad?”
At the same time, Tang Guo came over to Yan Nian, looking at her with excitement, and grabbed her arm, saying, “So you are here!!” She looked full of expectation, “Please help me explain to Ah Yi, I just went to get medicine for Ah Yi before, I didn’t abandon him, you were there, right?”
Yan Nian felt a chill in her heart, her face tensed up, trying to control her expression, looking at Tang Guo with very confused eyes.
“You…”
Looking at Tang Guo’s hopeful face, Yan Nian continued to ask, “Who are you? I don’t know you, and what do you want me to explain?”
“You were clearly at the villa back then, you told me the pharmacy wasn’t far from the villa, you said you’d watch Ah Yi for me while I went to get the medicine. Don’t you remember any of this?”
Yan Nian frowned, “Miss, are you sure it was me you saw?”
“I’m very sure I haven’t met you,” Yan Nian was very grateful she hadn’t told Tang Guo her name, “Since you know me, can you tell me my name, what capacity are you questioning me in, and what do you want me to explain to Ah Yi?”
Tang Guo couldn’t answer any of these questions, she had only met this woman once, and didn’t know her name.
She stood there speechless, only repeating that it was indeed Yan Nian who watched Ah Yi for her while she went to get the medicine.
However, no one believed her. The members of the Sunshine Squad thought she was delusional.
“Please, help me explain, Ah Yi doesn’t believe me anymore,” the woman said pitifully, with a beautiful face that could easily make people feel soft-hearted, “Ah Yi, just believe me once more, okay?”
“Can you help me explain?” The woman suddenly remembered she had exchanged jade pendants with Yan Nian before, “Right, you also exchanged medicine for my jade pendant, that jade pendant is a family heirloom, if it wasn’t to save Ah Yi, I would never have given it to you.”
“I remember Yan Nian indeed has a jade pendant.” Qin Jiaran suddenly spoke, “Yan Nian, take out the jade pendant, let her recognize it, let’s clear this up since we’re in the same squad.”
Yan Nian felt some resentment in her heart. This Qin Jiaren had always been at odds with her.
This is a very clever woman. If she doesn’t bring out the jade pendant to prove it today, it won’t work.
Everyone stared at Yan Nian, not out of suspicion towards their own member, but because this matter was unusual and involved someone very important in their squad.
Under everyone’s expectant gaze, Yan Nian took the jade pendant from around her neck and handed it to Tang Guo, “Look, is this your jade pendant?”
Everyone looked at the jade pendant and then at Tang Guo.
Tang Guo looked at the jade pendant, feeling a bit lost, it wasn’t hers.
Seeing her expression, everyone understood.
“I said I didn’t know you.” Yan Nian frowned, “Ah Yi, who is she?” She grabbed Yan Yi’s arm, “I heard a particularly beautiful woman arrived a few days ago, Ah Yi, you haven’t fallen for her, have you?”
“I’m Ah Yi’s fiancée.” Tang Guo, feeling a sense of crisis rising in her heart, nervously said.
Yan Nian looked at Yan Yi, waiting for his answer.
