Chapter 4

Now that you are aware of the entire story... He Tiantian has expressed all her thoughts, shedding the heaviest burden of her youth. She looks like someone who has finally completed their sentence and regained their freedom. "I am sending you an invitation, hoping you will honor us with your presence at the wedding. If you are unwilling to come, that is also fine."

Fortunately, Shao Qingyu's true nature was quickly revealed, instantly extinguishing the slightest trace of compassion that Ye Zhaoju had just begun to feel.

Recalling these matters, Ye Zhao could not help but feel a chill of fear: truly, the lingering spirits are relentless

I originally wanted to say that I could take care of myself, and I also wanted to tell my mother that I was particularly reluctant to leave my familiar environment, my good friends, and the classmates and teachers I interacted with daily. However, in that situation, as a child, how could one oppose the decisions of their elders? Moreover, deep down, you know that they are truly doing it for your own good

No, it is He Tiantian. Ye Zhaoju was very calm

Without the alarm clock ringing punctually every morning, no longer fearing deductions from wages due to tardiness and desperately chasing after buses, no need to compete for space with strangers in crowded carriages, far removed from the fixed working hours of 9 to 6, no longer needing to exhaust oneself to deal with the sudden challenges thrown by bosses and clients, and even without colleagues quietly discussing company gossip during busy moments

... ...

As a member of society, she has been detached from it for too long, long enough for her brain to develop a layer of rust

Ye Zhao felt quietly as she looked at Shao Qingyu, thinking: It is time to curb your arrogance

Following the recent trajectory of her life, she finally recalled that this must have been something she inadvertently received while accompanying Xu Wan to the home goods market that day, and then unintentionally stuffed it into her bag

Her tone was extremely mournful; despite the passage of so much time, she still displayed resentment when recalling the past

Since she was very young, she was forced to live with her despised stepmother, pretending to be obedient and well-behaved in front of her father, while secretly calculating how much of the affection that should have belonged to her was taken away by her stepmother and her daughter. After reaching adulthood, the most important thing was to guard against their schemes regarding her share of the inheritance... Ye Zhao Jue, do you really think that with Shao Qingyu's family background and upbringing, she would be an innocent person

Upon hearing this, Ye Zhao could not help but think of his own background, and he was immediately filled with compassion.

It was just like that, inexplicable, with no evidence of my death. Before the school dismissal time, I was taken home by my uncle. On the way, I kept crying, crying, dragging my backpack on the ground, dust constantly invading my mouth and nose. That feeling was simply more sorrowful than death

As she got up to bid farewell to He Tiantian, she placed both wedding invitations into her bag

Although Ye Zhaoju had already fully understood what Shao Qingyu meant, she hoped that this sentence could be expressed by He Tiantian herself

She recalled that afternoon during her student days when she skipped class to visit Shao Qingyu, who had injured her head. Standing at the door of the hospital room, she saw the usually proud and haughty heiress lying alone in bed, staring blankly with a look of desolation.

Unbeknownst to him, Ye Zhao suddenly felt a clarity within, realizing that the one who had been unwilling to yield back then was someone else

She casually glossed over this section

When she finished speaking, the girl trapped in hatred completely turned away, disappearing into the passage of time; from that moment on, she became a true adult

Uncle did not say much, he just kept sighing, but Auntie kept making sarcastic remarks beside him, saying, "Tian Tian, why are you so troublesome? Why did you provoke that little girl? Her family is quite powerful and wealthy, and with just a little pressure on the school, your parents, your uncle, and I, all of our hard work will be in vain."

"Why are you getting involved with that wretched person?" Ye Zhao felt a faint amusement as he listened, noting the surprising consistency in the way He Tiantian and Shao Qingyu referred to each other as mortal enemies. "What do you mean by helping that wretched person get an invitation for me? Is it revenge? Just because I embarrassed you that night? Are you really that petty and holding a grudge? Or is it that you have actually disliked me for a long time and have been waiting to see me make a fool of myself? What you are doing is no different from those who have envied me, excluded me, isolated me, and plotted against me since childhood?"

Indeed, it has been too long. He Tiantian sighed; she could sense Ye Zhaoju's resistance towards her

In the past, she would always throw flyers into the trash can, but by a stroke of luck, she ended up bringing this one home.

They were sitting in the milk tea shop at the entrance of the middle school. It was class time, and the surroundings were very quiet, with only faint sounds of laughter from children having physical education class coming from the nearby athletic field

After quite a while, she finally came to her senses: "Congratulations to you all, please convey my blessings to Jiang Yi. I had troubled him with quite a few matters when he was with Qing Yu."

Compared to the flushed face of Shao Qingyu, Ye Zhaoju still retained a degree of rationality: "What difference is there between me and those people? Shao Qingyu, after so many years of friendship, today you ask me, what difference is there between me and those people?"

In the office, waiting for her were not only the director of education but also her uncle, who wore a gloomy expression. No one informed her of the specifics, of what exactly she had done wrong; the indifferent adults did not explain the circumstances to her.

There is no doubt that this amount of money will not last long, and if there is no substantial progress in her job search, she may not even be able to maintain the basic保障 for her survival

He Tiantian firmly held her hand, his eyes conveying a sense of pleading: "Ye Zhao Jue, let me tell you the truth about that incident from our school days. You can judge for yourself who was truly domineering and who was merciless."

A very ordinary red folded invitation, featuring a hot-stamped double happiness design.

He Tiantian smiled indifferently: "It is you who is naive, have you ever considered the environment in which Shao Qingyu was raised"

Upon hearing He Tiantian speak of Jiang Yi with a gentle tone and expression, Ye Zhao realized that this marriage indeed had no ulterior motives, no calculations or conspiracies, but was purely a union of emotions

After the arrangements at the hospital were properly made, my mother had a deep conversation with me. Our family's financial situation was not very ample to begin with, and a significant amount of money had already been spent on my father's treatment. If we were to hire a dedicated caregiver, it would undoubtedly lead to even greater expenses. In such circumstances, my mother had to stay and personally take care of my father

Ye Zhao Jue silently told herself, do not panic, she softly replied, I also received one.

Shao Qingyu knew that her words had touched Ye Zhaoju's bottom line, but it was too late to take them back; she could only tightly close her lips and remain silent

No overtime, no meetings, and even no fatigue and complaints arising from early departures and late returns

Oh, Zhao Jue, you are in such a good mood!" Shao Qingyu took it upon herself to carefully inspect every corner of Ye Zhao Jue's home, "I thought you were having a terrible time after breaking up with Jian Chenye, but I didn't expect you to be in such good spirits. Your room is beautifully and warmly decorated.

If it is the former, you need to find a way to resolve it; if it is the latter, you need to find a way to minimize losses

Ye Zhao felt hesitant, pondering for a moment, and ultimately decided to sit down and listen carefully to another version of the story

Thank you... He Tiantian hesitated to speak further

As for why he thought this way, Ye Zhao himself could not explain it clearly

Ye Zhao Jue understood that the wounds one suffers in youth can feel particularly painful due to the youthfulness and the inability to resist

Unexpectedly, He Tiantian smiled gently and said: "You misunderstand. My marriage to Jiang Yi is a decision made after careful consideration, not out of spite, and certainly not to take revenge on anyone"

A voice within her gently asked: If I were to walk this path a thousand times, ten thousand times, would I be able to find you and myself as we were back then

Before the furious scolding of Shao Qingyu swept in like a storm, Ye Zhaoju had already prepared to endure it all

After finishing this speech, Ye Zhao Jue reached out to grab her coat and bag; she did not want to stay even for an additional minute

It is difficult to articulate why, but as she listened to He Tiantian recount the past events, she felt a vague sense of guilt within herself. Because she had once been Shao Qingyu's only friend, in a certain sense, she was like an accomplice to a bully.

If you are willing to bring it to her for me, I will thank you; if you are not willing, I will still thank you. I just want to use this matter to prove that I have let go.

She stood there, motionless, staring intently at those two names, her extreme shock mingling with intense anger, as her burgundy fake nails pierced through the paper.

Later events, Ye Zhaojue came to know.

Ye Zhao Jue slowly put down his phone: "I can't not go, it's impossible."

After her emotions had calmed down a bit, Mother told her that, in order to take care of Father, she had already discussed with Uncle's family and asked them to help look after her for a while

The quiet time seemed to stretch for a full one hundred years, long enough for Ye Zhao to begin to feel anxious. Just as she was about to softly call out to Shao Qingyu, Shao Qingyu moved.

In order to take on the role of this messenger, Ye Zhao Jue had no choice but to temporarily set aside the thought of joining "Nini Rice Balls".

Hey, hey, hey, have some decency!" Ye Zhao Jue couldn't help but frown, "You are an educated person, so please don't speak so vulgarly.

That year, He Tiantian's father was suddenly diagnosed with a rare disease. The entire family almost visited every hospital and gathered relevant information through various channels, but they never obtained an optimal treatment plan.

Then I can only say congratulations once again Ye Zhao felt no more resentment in her heart, and she sincerely wished the newlyweds well

It just so happened to be a holiday, so she naturally accompanied her mother to take her father there for hospitalization and treatment

One cannot blame her, He Tiantian thought, after all... that time she was injured in the accident, she herself could not escape responsibility.

He Tiantian, just seeing these three characters feels like something from a past life

I just feel that everyone should bear the corresponding consequences for their actions

Is that not enough? You have already taken Jiang Yi away from her, the person she has liked for so many years, is that not enough? Ye Zhao Jue suddenly became angry. Shao Qing Yu, no matter how wrong you are, after all, she is your close friend of many years. She is such a proud person, and you have already subjected her to the greatest humiliation of her life so far, is that not enough? You still want me to help you deliver wedding invitations to her, He Tiantian, you are being too domineering.

Her gaze flicked towards the mirror

Ye Zhao felt a bit embarrassed, what should he do? With limited resources, how would he manage to throw out the heavy bomb later?

Qingyu, I am Ye Zhaoju

She did not mention how unpleasant her aunt's expression was when her uncle was trying to find connections for her, nor did she bring up how difficult it was to live under someone else's roof, where even the trivial matters of taking an extra bite of food or adding half a bowl of rice had to be carefully considered

So you are still brooding over it, even after such a long time, you still want to settle this score? At this point, Ye Zhaojue no longer feels that He Tiantian has done anything wrong; it was Shao Qingyu who acted unjustly first, and everything that followed was merely an attempt to even the score with him

Fate is most adept at adding insult to injury; just as one wave subsides, another rises.

She was still contemplating how to decline, when He Tiantian spoke up first: "Regarding the hotel incident, the only person I feel sorry for is you. But for Shao Qingyu, I only feel that I have not done enough."

Oh, these are the meaning of Qi Tang

Four hundred eighty-three yuan and seven jiao, with both whole and fractional amounts

She turned her face, her complexion as pale as a ghost, her two eyes resembling two bottomless black wells, and her sharp voice seemed to come from another dimension: "Why do you have this?"

It is possible that... ... one might starve to death.

She simply said: "From the day I entered school, I told myself to adapt to the new environment as quickly as possible. I have to work harder here than before, only then can I comfort my parents and live up to my uncle's concern and efforts for me."

It is four thirty in the afternoon, and the intense midday sunlight has now transformed into a gentle pale yellow. He Tiantian's face appears tranquil like a deep lake in such light

As time passed, she became too lazy to contact Ye Zhao Jue again, and the two of them fell into a complete deadlock of "neither of us making a move".

Yè Zhāojué turned over all his coat pockets and bag crevices to find out how much cash was left at home, and found it along with other expired receipts.

In He Tiantian's memory, that day was originally a beautiful day with clear skies and gentle breezes, and she was attending her favorite geography class

That was actually something that happened when I was sixteen years old. Human memory is a very strange thing. Even after nearly ten years, she could still remember all the details and her feelings at the time when she closed her eyes.

That was a text message, from an unknown phone number.

Ye Zhaojue's gaze followed this road and looked towards the past years.

When one creature suffers, others of its kind feel the pain; the death of a rabbit brings sorrow to the fox.

That flyer

Who entrusted you? It wouldn't be Qi Tang, would it? You seem quite close.

The reflection in the mirror shows a dazed and repressed self, with tightly furrowed brows, a face that has long lost its former cleverness and wit. It is a face abandoned by modernity, a face that evokes her self-loathing.

Thus, she became a piece of scrap.

What is going on! Are you getting married?

Qingyu and Jiang Yi had a dispute because of you, resulting in a fight, and Qingyu even fell down the stairs. In fact, everyone knows it has nothing to do with you; it was just unfortunate luck. At that time, Shao Qingyu was indeed quite overbearing, but... if I were you, given how difficult it was to get in here, it would be too unworthy to leave over such a trivial matter

If we are bullied, and the other party is strong and holds the power of life and death, then do not resist; humbly bow your head and admit your mistake

He Tiantian, that scheming woman, not only deliberately set a trap for Shao Qingyu, but what is even more unforgivable is that she also got herself injured by being hit by Wang Ge's motorcycle, losing her job in the process

Could it be that ...? ... She hesitated, could it be that this is some kind of hint

At the end of her speech, He Tiantian's voice trembled slightly.

However, for Ye Zhaoju, it was not until several years later that she learned the true nature of her best friend. For a moment, she still found it hard to believe. With her head lowered, she murmured to herself, "I always thought she was just willful, but her character was still quite innocent."

On the train, she observed her parents, who were exhausted and silent from their hard work, and for the first time in her life, she began to truly understand what it meant to face the hardships that life bestows upon you

Later, my family tried every possible means to help me return to my original school. By that time, the school year had already started for a while, and when I returned to the classroom, a significant portion of the curriculum had already been missed. Some unfounded rumors were also spreading among my classmates, but that was not the worst part

The matter that is crucial to life is something you simply do not bring up easily

However, she understands more clearly that in life, all problems ultimately boil down to two categories: those you can solve and those you cannot solve

Ye Zhao felt that discussing such a meaningless topic with her was a waste of time. He directly took out the invitation and threw it onto the table with a loud "bang," startling Shao Qingyu.

He Tiantian gently cleared his throat, pulling Ye Zhaoju back from his memories: "I still remember that when we were studying, this place was a photo booth, and you could take a large photo for ten yuan, right?"

Memories surge forth from the past

In light of this, He Tiantian decided to be forthright: "I am truly very sorry about that accident. I originally intended to go to the hospital together to check on the situation, but Jiang Yi stopped me. He said that if we went along, with Shao Qingyu's temperament, there would surely be a scene at the hospital."

Nini Rice Balls are making a strong debut, and we sincerely invite you to join us... Starting with an investment of ten thousand yuan, it can be operated by just one person! Success rate 100%! Extremely easy! She flipped the flyer over and over several times, pondering where this flyer had come from.

The performance has begun

"Stop it!" Ye Zhao Jue's expression was extremely unpleasant, and this time she was genuinely a bit angry. "Could you please open it and take a look before going crazy?"

Indeed, being still too young, I am unable to share the burdens of pain with my parents

Her body trembled involuntarily, every joint becoming rigid, and her teeth clashed against each other in her mouth, producing an extremely faint, almost inaudible sound.

Sha Qingyu, who was originally turned away from her, suddenly turned around and spoke without any courtesy: "I knew it! I knew you were having an affair with Qi Tang!"

She remembers that on the day she received the news, her mother began packing her luggage and buying train tickets

Being unemployed, she was cast aside from all rules and regulations, with every day being a day of rest

Yes, Ye Zhao Jue knows that no one understands better than she does, because what we excel at the most is blaming ourselves for the mistakes of others

Ye Zhao felt impatient as he picked it up to take a look. In this message, Miss He made her intentions clear: "Jiang Yi and I are getting married, and I would like to personally deliver an invitation to you."

A few minutes later, the phone vibrated again

She brought a set of perfume and scented candles for Ye Zhaojue, casually throwing it on the table: "I picked the small orchid for you. It was originally a New Year's gift. Hmph, who asked you to deliberately avoid me."

It's not He Tiantian leaving in anger, but Shao Qingyu cannot tolerate being humiliated and injured by her, becoming a thorn in her side.

However, just because of your hatred for Shao Qingyu, you are willing to act out of spite, sacrificing both your own life and that of Jiang Yi. This is too foolish. Ye Zhao Jue recalled that their marriage was approaching and couldn't help but add a word.

As children from ordinary families, she empathizes with others. She can understand how helpless, scared, and powerless a 16-year-old girl can feel in such a situation.

This favor, absolutely cannot be helped.

She listened blankly, wanting to say something but unable to utter a word.

She thought it was junk information and was about to delete it casually. However, when she clicked on it, she was extremely surprised to see: "Ye Zhaojue, hello, I am He Tiantian. I don't know if you still remember me. If you do, please reply. I have something very important to discuss with you."

Shao Qingyu looked both skeptical and incredulous.

For Ye Zhaojue, all of this is too complicated and too heavy.

Hetian Tian said: "At first... I just wanted to provoke Shao Qingyu using Jiang Yi's jealousy. I didn't expect them to actually break up... You were also there that day, you witnessed Shao Qingyu's actions with your own eyes. Any self-respecting guy would not be able to forgive her."

Hetiantian slightly raised one corner of her mouth, sneered, "Do you think I am unwilling to endure?"

Ye Zhao was staring at the graceful font, lost in thought. At this moment, an old saying popped into her mind: "Man proposes, God disposes".

The past cannot be chased, and now Shao Qingyu already has a new boyfriend.

When she was concentrating on taking notes, the homeroom teacher suddenly called her out of the classroom.

Ye Zhaojue feels infinitely melancholic. After spending a long time together with the years and time, in the end, everyone around him is completely unrelated to the past. Can you say that the past emotions were all misplaced? But if they were not misplaced, who can take responsibility for everything now?

In any case, crying and evading are of no help

Ye Zhao keenly sensed a clue: "Is there anything else?"

Ye Zhao felt a little frightened: What does she want from me? What important matter could there be between her and me that needs to be discussed?

Although it may sound like diplomatic rhetoric, Ye Zhaoju spoke every word from the heart

She picked up the invitation from the table, opened it, and her gaze fell directly on the names of the bride and groom. Her face gradually turned pale, increasingly pale, as if all the blood in her body had drained away from her feet.

Although Shao Qingyu's words were unfriendly, he did not arrive empty-handed on the day he came.

Gradually, Shao Qingyu, who had become accustomed to being overbearing, was filled with anger: "What does she mean by this? Is she trying to sever our friendship?"

Ye Zhao felt momentarily taken aback, staring blankly at the other person

After completing this task, she stood up to pour herself a drink of water, but... a strange gravitational pull drew her attention to the trash can, specifically to the crumpled colored copperplate paper on top.

Ye Zhao Jue shook his head, appearing indifferent on the surface, yet inwardly sneering: hypocritical

At a time when the whole family was in a state of distress, her mother heard from a relative that a doctor at a hospital in a neighboring province had conducted considerable research on this condition. The relative also mentioned that it seemed some patients with similar ailments had already been cured.

"But I did not do that, I did not treat you the way you treated me." Remembering that incident, Ye Zhao felt a lingering sense of grievance in her heart, her eyes reddening, "Because, no matter what, I still regard you as my best friend"

Shao Qingyu shot her a glance, looking quite unconvinced: "You are angered because I have hit the nail on the head, aren't you?"

The worst part is that ever since then, I have been tormented day and night by a deep-seated hatred. Because of that wretched Shao Qingyu, there has not been a single thing in my adolescence that brought me joy

He Tiantian paused for a moment, as if having made a significant decision, and took out another invitation from his bag: "Could you please deliver this to Shao Qingyu?"

Just as she was about to fall into deep thought, her phone vibrated

For He Tiantian, that night was even longer than the night of the winter solstice

The time and location of the wedding banquet are clear at a glance, with the handwritten names of the newlyweds: Jiang Yi, He Tiantian

"You said you were entrusted by someone... Is it Jiang Yi who asked you to bring this to me?" Shao Qingyu supported herself against the back of the chair and slowly sat down. Her speech was extremely slow; if she did not break it down word by word, she would not know how to speak.

Being forgotten and overlooked only indicates that one is not important

From the moment she heard the first word, she did not intend to bring disaster upon herself. Setting aside the current awkward relationship between them, just thinking about Qingyu's reaction upon receiving this wedding invitation sent chills down her spine

At that juncture, obediently following the arrangements was all she could do

After a few seconds, Shao Qingyu let out a piercing scream, the noise was so great that it could probably be heard by Qiao Chu across the way

Who could have predicted that the person who married Jiang Yi was not Shao Qingyu?

Shao Qingyu's words were clearly laced with barbs, but Ye Zhaojue decided to endure for the time being

Whenever Ye Zhao Jue recalls Shao Qingyu's demeanor at that time, he feels that many matters do not require too much scrutiny towards her, considering her merely as a rebellious and eccentric child, and it is better to indulge her a little.

Which day are you free in the next few days? Come visit my home

"I have been entrusted by someone to deliver something to you." Ye Zhao-jue rolled his eyes at the air

Based on this understanding, she forgave He Tiantian for everything she had done

Since she has let go herself, what reason do others have to hold on for her

Ye Zhao could not truly discern He Tiantian's intentions. Although her curiosity had indeed been piqued, considering the other party's character, she felt it would be best not to provoke her.

Seeing that Ye Zhao Jue did not intend to reminisce, He Tian Tian could only smile faintly and refrain from pressing the matter. She took out a red wedding invitation from her bag and gently pushed it in front of Ye Zhao Jue, saying: "Please accept this."

She associated this wedding invitation, which was unrelated to her, with the future that had already been cut short between herself and Jian Chenye

The mountain rain is about to come, she understands

Mother also asked her to forgive her for taking matters into her own hands and deciding to help her transfer to the school closest to her uncle's house without her consent

The school's final decision was to "recommend transferring schools." My mother received the news and hurried back, and the first thing she did upon seeing me was to slap me twice. However, from beginning to end, I did not defend myself with a single word. Ye Zhao Jue, do you know why

The objects remain, but the people have changed; this scene indeed evokes deep feelings of nostalgia.

Your alma mater, indeed, is very difficult to enter... Speaking of this, He Tiantian still feels quite downcast. "My honest and straightforward uncle, entrusted by his own sister, had no choice but to rack his brains to find friends, seek solutions, and navigate connections. Moreover, since my academic performance is quite good, the school finally accepted me.

It is precisely because of this unfounded compassion that no matter how much Shao Qingyu causes a scene, how willful she is, or how wrong she may be, Ye Zhaojue can at most choose to ignore her, but will never be able to truly hate or despise her

Ye Zhao subconsciously closed his eyes: This is the law of the jungle that we have understood since childhood

She will never forget the sight of her mother covering her face while crying and saying sorry to her, a minor girl being nearly suffocated by the overwhelming sadness that surged from her own family.

If this is truly the case, she would genuinely feel happy for Jiang Yi

She clutched that pile of pitiful banknotes, unable to catch her breath for quite some time

We come from humble beginnings, our lives are modest and meager. In dealing with others, we should be particularly cautious and meticulous, avoiding crossing class boundaries, provoking unnecessary trouble, and especially not coveting what does not belong to us.

Damn! She expressed her determination through cursing, Ye Zhao Jue, you can no longer live like a lost dog!

All expired coupons, receipts, and takeout orders from restaurants were crumpled into a ball and thrown into the trash can, discarding everything that held no value

I have never speculated about her from this perspective, nor do I wish to do so in the future

At least on the surface, she appears to be sincere

You will know once you arrive, no need to say more, it is as it is

Since New Year's Eve, when Shao Qingyu deliberately revealed Ye Zhaojue's private matters in front of a crowd, causing her great embarrassment, the once closest friends have not met again.

Ye Zhao felt a sense of relief, is it really like this?

She retrieved the flyer from the trash can and spread it out on the coffee table to smooth it out

"Then why do you ... ... " Shao Qingyu raised her face, which bore both resentment and unwillingness.

Based on her years of understanding of Shao Qingyu, when you finally find out what the matter is, heh, let's see if you still have the mood to mock me

After quite a while, Ye Zhao Jue finally regained his composure

Initially, Shao Qingyu had taken the initiative to send several messages to Ye Zhaoju in an attempt to befriend him, but Ye Zhaoju did not respond to any of them

Um... Ye Zhao felt momentarily unable to distinguish between friend and foe, and could only respond vaguely, "I don't remember much either; it was too long ago."

She softly asked, "What happened next?"

That is an extremely unjust theorem: throughout one's life, there will always be a few individuals whom you cannot demand or treat according to universal values.

He Tiantian remembers that day when his mother cried very hard, partly because of his father's illness and partly because of herself

However, the most serious issue is not merely hunger and financial constraints, but rather her clear awareness that her mind is becoming increasingly less effective, which is a typical manifestation of prolonged cognitive stagnation

He Tian Tian's smile was filled with embarrassment: "I know it is difficult for you, but I hope you can consider the past, as you and Jiang Yi are friends, and reluctantly fulfill this wish of mine."

Before Ye Zhaoju made the call to Shao Qingyu, she felt a heavy heart; this was not a pleasant task, yet she did not regret agreeing to He Tiantian.

Ye Zhao Jue stood up, walked in front of her, and spoke slowly and deliberately: "If I were truly as insidious, as malicious, and as vengeful as you claim, I could easily arrange to meet you in a public place, allowing everyone around, whether they know you or not, to witness your current flustered state.

The more I interacted with Jiang Yi, the more I felt that he was a rare good person, honest in character and always considering others first. He possesses some very precious qualities, yet Shao Qingyu has never appreciated, let alone cherished them. Their breakup was, in fact, Jiang Yi's fortune

Ye Zhao felt that Shao Qingyu's reaction would be intense and her words would be extreme, but when she heard those words with her own ears, she still felt a sharp pain, as if she had been insulted

What do you want? Shao Qingyu's attitude was very poor, "You want me to go, so I will go!"

The director of education simply said: "He Tiantian, you should go back with your uncle for a couple of days, and the school will carefully consider how to handle this."
