Lu Xue also let out a slight sigh of relief. The matter had been resolved. With a poker face, she was about to return to her studio when Mu Yuze called out to her and spoke softly.
"Lu Xue, don't you have anything to defend yourself about this matter?"
Lu Xue turned around and retorted, "Defend what?"
Mu Yuze said, "You mustn't have intentionally broken into Mu Ziyue's room or destroyed her gift. There must be some misunderstanding. Why don't you explain it to her face - to - face? Even if you just say a few soft words, that girl's temper will subside a lot."
Ding Muyun, who was about to turn around and leave, felt a pang in her heart upon hearing this. She gritted her teeth, and her heart began to race.
As long as Lu Xue wasn't a fool, she probably wouldn't let go of such a good opportunity. She would surely tell Mu Yuze right in front of him how Ding Muyun had framed her into opening that black box.
Ding Muyun took a deep breath and had already prepared in her heart how to fight back later. No matter how Lu Xue detailed the situation, Ding Muyun would never admit it.
She even had eye drops ready in her bosom. When necessary, she could shed some tears and pitifully say to Lu Xue, "Lu Xue, why do you frame me like this? This matter has nothing to do with me at all..."
There was a moment of silence on the scene.
Ding Muyun could feel Lu Xue's gaze on her back. Her back stiffened slightly, and the foot that was about to step down the stairs paused in mid - air.
But after waiting for a full five seconds, Lu Xue simply said indifferently, "There's nothing to defend. I really did it. It's reasonable for her to be angry with me."
After saying this, Lu Xue was about to turn around and go back to the studio.
Mu Yuze called out to her again helplessly.
"If you really feel wronged, you can tell Mu Ziyue. You can even tell her that you just accidentally opened that box."
But Lu Xue just shook her head and said nothing more.
She had no interest in defending herself too much. Besides, even if she did, who would believe her?
Ding Muyun was smart enough to choose to make a video call to Lu Xue instead of sending a text message directly in the chat box.
If it were a text message, there might still be some evidence left. But the call ended as soon as it was over, and no one knew what they had talked about. This evidence was far too flimsy.
With a bang, Lu Xue closed the door after entering the studio.
Ding Muyun almost immediately turned around and stared at the closed door in disbelief.
She never expected... Lu Xue wouldn't mention this matter at all.
Could it be that this girl was really too stupid and still didn't know that she had been deliberately framed by Ding Muyun?
For Lu Xue and Mu Ziyue, this matter had come to an end.
Mu Ziyue didn't lose face in front of her friends because of this. She also successfully gave the pigeons to the boy she liked. Since the pigeons had smooth feathers and good looks, Mu Ziyue received a lot of compliments from her friends.
When she returned to the Mu Mansion after the party in the dead of night and looked up at Lu Xue's closed door, Mu Ziyue fell into silence.
If Lu Xue had run out of the Mu Mansion, avoided seeing her, and quietly waited for the storm to pass, Mu Ziyue wouldn't have been surprised at all. Because that was the reaction Lu Xue should have in her mind. But Lu Xue didn't do so.
It was also after this incident that Mu Ziyue seemed to realize that her understanding of Lu Xue was still very shallow. She had never even thought about getting to know Lu Xue well.
When passing by Lu Xue's room, Mu Ziyue deliberately paused for a moment. She wanted to knock on her door and say sorry to her. But due to her pride, she finally walked past Lu Xue's door and returned to her own room.
Before going to bed, Lu Xue seemed to remember something and called Han Xiaolv.
As soon as Han Xiaolv answered the phone, she immediately asked nervously, "How about it? Is the matter settled?"
Lu Xue rubbed her hair tiredly and said, "Don't worry. It's settled."
Han Xiaolv let out a sigh of relief. This afternoon, she had been at home dealing with those emails when suddenly Lu Xue's call came. Han Xiaolv was a bit surprised when she received the call and replied carefully.
"Okay, I'll try to look for it in my contact list. I remember that there was a client who was interested in pigeon racing. Maybe he can help."
After hanging up the phone, Han Xiaolv began to rummage through her contact list. That client had frequently sent emails to Han Xiaolv before, hoping to cooperate with Lu Xue. But at that time, Lu Xue didn't pay any attention to them. If Lu Xue suddenly contacted him and asked for his help at this moment, that client would surely be extremely excited.
Sure enough, after Han Xiaolv explained her purpose, that client readily agreed. He told his subordinates to stop their work first and mobilize all the labor force to handle this matter. In less than half an hour, everything was ready.
