After witnessing Ji Lexue truly stopping Yue Ruilin from seeking revenge, Di Tiancong's expression darkened.
Ji Lexue's actions had put him in an awkward position.
Yue Ruilin would surely question him about what had happened, and it might even lead to Yue Ruilin's displeasure.
Thinking about this, Di Tiancong became extremely frustrated.
Such a great opportunity had been ruined like this.
"Lexue, are you really not upset because of them?" Yue Ruilin asked Ji Lexue, feeling that the situation wasn't as simple as it seemed.
Moreover, when he went to cause trouble earlier, he overheard the surrounding discussions. There must have been some conflict between Ji Lexue and those two from yesterday.
Ji Lexue shook her head. She understood Yue Ruilin's temperament.
If she said yes, Yue Ruilin would definitely not give up on causing trouble for Bai Li Hongzhuang and Ditian Cong.
When she saw Bai Li Hongzhuang and Ditian Cong just now, she felt a stronger sense of fear. She had a feeling that these two were not ordinary people, so it would be better not to offend them.
Besides, everything that could be ridiculed about yesterday's incident had already been ridiculed. Why bring it up again now?
"Master Yue, I'm really fine. I just want to participate in this recruitment event and enter the Yue family legitimately. I hope you can help me with that," Ji Lexue said, gazing at Yue Ruilin. Although she didn't have a good impression of Yue Ruilin's playboy demeanor, his willingness to stand up for her earlier made her somewhat grateful.
Upon hearing Ji Lexue's words, Yue Ruilin nodded. "I understand."
"Lexue, rest assured. With your medical skills, there shouldn't be any problem with the recruitment event," he reassured her.
Finally, a smile appeared on Ji Lexue's face. "Thank you, Master Yue. I'll go prepare now. The preliminary competition is about to start."
"Alright, we'll meet again after your competition is over."
After Ji Lexue left, Yue Ruilin sought out Di Tiancong. He was feeling quite unhappy because Di Tiancong dared to deceive him in this matter!
When Di Tiancong saw Yue Ruilin approaching with an unpleasant expression, his heart sank. Before Yue Ruilin could ask him anything, he took the initiative to explain.
"Master Yue, I have spoken nothing but the truth!"
However, Yue Ruilin gave Di Tiancong a cold glance. "Nonsense! Lexue didn't care about this matter at all."
"Master Yue, I guarantee that I have told the truth. Lexue just didn't want to provoke trouble because she was afraid of those two. Think about it, today is the Yue family's recruitment event. If you were to take action against the participants, wouldn't it damage your reputation? I believe Lexue compromised for this reason. If you don't believe me, you can ask around. Everyone knows about what happened yesterday."
As Di Tiancong explained, Yue Ruilin's expression improved slightly.
After all, as the seventh young master of the Yue family, he had gone aggressively to find trouble but came back without doing anything. It was indeed damaging to his reputation.
However, if Ji Lexue had done this for his sake, then everything would be different.
"It better be as you say. If you're lying to me, you should know the consequences!" Yue Ruilin said harshly before turning around and leaving. He would investigate the matter himself.
After Yue Ruilin left, Di Tiancong finally breathed a sigh of relief.
