Chapter 26 The Richest Man's Daughter vs. Poor Boys' High School (26)
He Suining and Qin Zhili had a falling out.
The news spread throughout the school, and even the forum, which had originally created a thread for shipping them, was now filled with wails of despair, with people crying out, "My CP is dead!"
However, as time went by, people seemed to have gradually forgotten about it.
Forgot that there was a time when they weren't exactly inseparable, but they were indeed very close.
They were like parallel lines that would never intersect, returning to their original positions.
The only difference is the state of mind.
Zhou Yunqi was probably the happiest.
He picks up and drops off He Suining every day, which means he has less time to spend with Ruan Tian.
He Suining had tentatively inquired about it.
He lost interest in pursuing Ruan Tian.
Without Zhou Yunqi interfering, Ruan Tian, the female lead of this small world, is getting along very well with the male lead, Zhou Yanbai.
Time passed little by little.
Soon, the important moment for many people arrived: the college entrance examination.
He Suining did well on the exam.
Zhou Yunqi's grades were average, but he should have no problem graduating and getting into university.
Graduation day.
After saying goodbye to their homeroom teacher, the two stood at the school gate, playfully waiting for the Zhou family's car to pick them up.
"This weather looks like it's going to rain." Zhou Yunqi looked up at the gray sky with a sense of frustration. "I didn't bring an umbrella, Ningning, go find some shelter nearby. I'll call the driver to come over quickly."
He Suining shook her head dismissively, "It's alright, don't rush them, the rain shouldn't be coming down anytime soon."
The two chatted.
She looked at Zhou Yunqi and suddenly asked, "Yunqi, what's your relationship with your stepfather like?"
"what?"
Zhou Yunqi didn't understand why she asked that.
He Suining is not a gossipy person, neither in the past nor now.
She also knew that these words were a taboo subject for Zhou Yunqi.
If it were anyone else asking, Gao Di Zhou Yunqi would slap that person.
But He Suining asked.
After pausing for a few seconds, he hesitated before answering, "Not really. He tries to please me, but I don't like him."
Zhou Yunqi gave a wry smile, "My mother likes him, so I can't refuse to give him face."
“Zhou Yunqi.” He Suining’s expression turned slightly serious.
Rumble.
Just then, a clap of thunder appeared in the sky, accompanied by lightning, seemingly foreshadowing an imminent downpour.
"Your stepfather has always wanted the land where Qin Zhili's orphanage is located. And I've investigated, and he plans to obtain that land through improper means. He's also evaded taxes and committed various illegal acts... If..."
She looked at him with bright, sparkling eyes. "If I report him, will you hate me?"
Zhou Yunqi was stunned.
The deafening roar of thunder seemed to diminish considerably in his ears.
[Host.] Broken doesn't understand.
He Suining had always been honest and obedient, and everyone thought she was heartless. In the blink of an eye, she had already forgotten about Qin Zhili.
Mission accomplished.
It has no value to her.
Who knew she'd suddenly pull something so big? [Didn't you say you wouldn't interfere in other people's lives?]
Faced with the accusations of being humiliated, He Suining calmly responded, "I didn't interfere. I'll deal with Xiang Zhenfei after Qin Zhili goes abroad. This isn't for Qin Zhili, but for Grandma Qin who gave me the lunchbox, and those little brats. They didn't do anything wrong."
"If Xiang Zhenfei isn't eliminated, who knows what kind of trouble he'll cause for the orphanage?"
is it?
The broken thing always felt that this might be half the reason in the host's heart.
Zhou Yunqi was confused.
Of course he knew that Xiang Zhenfei was not a good person and that he had done inhuman things.
But this has nothing to do with him.
He always pretended not to know anything, as long as his mother was happy.
Now, his childhood sweetheart is going to report him.
What about his mother?
“…I don’t know.” Zhou Yunqi shook his head, his lips pursed in a conflicted manner. “You didn’t do anything wrong, but I don’t want my mother to suffer. She’s already been divorced once. If she loses herself again, I don’t know how she will react or whether she can bear it.”
This is also what He Suining is worried about.
but.
Since He Suining had asked the question, it meant she was determined to do it, and she wouldn't change her mind because of others. "Zhou Yunqi, if I were you, I would make your mother collect the money first and find a way to get out of there. At least when you report her, she has to be clean."
“Don’t worry about that,” Zhou Yunqi blurted out. “My mom is a complete naive girl, obsessed with romance her whole life. She has no idea what Xiang Zhenfei does and never asks about his career. She’s absolutely fine, I can guarantee that.”
"Ah."
The two people were talking.
Suddenly, it started raining.
A drop of rain fell on He Suining's face, followed by two drops, three drops, and a whole bunch of them.
Her eyes were blurred by the rain.
It seemed that Qin Zhili was standing not far away.
He stood there quietly, letting the rain soak him completely.
Qin Zhili didn't look at them, as if he was just waiting for the bus.
"Let's go!" Zhou Yunqi didn't notice Qin Zhili behind him. He grabbed her wrist and dragged her to a nearby rooftop where they could shelter from the rain.
She peeked out again.
Qin Zhili has disappeared.
She breathed a sigh of relief.
"Ningning." Zhou Yunqi, who was standing to the side, had not seen Qin Zhili from beginning to end.
He scratched his flushed face, lost in his own thoughts. "There's something I want to tell you."
He Suining looked at him with a puzzled expression.
Zhou Yunqi is a straightforward person and rarely acts so awkwardly.
The two stared at each other for more than ten seconds.
He gritted his teeth and decided to give it his all: "I like you, He Suining."
"..."
Before she could speak, Zhou Yunqi continued, "Although we can have a marriage alliance, I think I should still express my thoughts to avoid any misunderstandings later. Even if we do get married in the future, I won't like you because of the marriage alliance; I've always liked you."
He Suining remained silent for a moment.
She slowly shook her head. "Zhou Yunqi, I already had my parents refuse the marriage proposal. Didn't you know that?"
Zhou Yunqi was a little confused, "Huh?"
She started to get a headache. "Besides, I don't understand what love is. I've heard that love requires at least one person to feel attracted to another, and I've never felt that way before..."
She was halfway through her sentence when Zhou Yunqi interrupted her, "And what about Qin Zhili? Is it the same? You're not attracted to him?"
He Suining nodded sincerely, and in that instant without hesitation, the image of Qin Zhili kissing her forehead flashed through her mind.
But she still denied it, saying, "No, I treat him the same way I treat you; we're just friends."
Zhou Yunqi sighed.
He appeared calm on the surface, but he was actually quite upset inside.
He liked Ruan Tian at first, but that liking didn't last long. Now, when he thinks about it carefully, he doesn't even know why he liked Ruan Tian.
However, his affection for He Suining was something that developed gradually.
One day, I suddenly dreamed of He Suining.
He dreamt that they had grown up and gotten married. When he woke up, he suddenly realized that he had fallen in love with her.
He Suining raised her hand and gently patted his shoulder.
Zhou Yunqi laughed, "It's okay, we'll be together for so many years to come, I don't believe you won't like me."
The car that was supposed to pick them up has arrived.
Zhou Yunqi raised the bag in his hand and held it over He Suining's head.
She wasn't allowed to say anything more, and was urged to leave, "Let's go! Let's embrace our new future!"
*
Qin Zhili boarded the plane and left Shangjin City.
He Suining received a WeChat message from him that read "Peace and Tranquility for a Lifetime".
Mo Yulongzun: [Sister, I've successfully graduated. I've been accepted into a university abroad through a special program, and I might not be able to reply to messages promptly for a long time as I need to settle in and adjust. I'm very grateful for your help with my culinary research all this time, but unfortunately... the opportunity to cook for her forever will never come again.]
He Suining, as if possessed, flipped through the account of "Peace and Safety Every Year".
As expected, Qin Zhili was no longer there.
That brat actually deleted her.
He is indeed a major villain. Although he is not destined to become a major villain now, he does have an "evil" side to him.
They act without considering the consequences, doing whatever comes to mind.
He Suining shook her head with a helpless smile.
She could understand Qin Zhili.
He was certain that the two of them would never contact each other again, so why leave any trace of the other person and cause himself pain?
May you enjoy a lifetime of peace and tranquility: [Wishing you all the best and a bright future. Also, whatever you do, as long as you have a clear conscience and won't regret it, then go for it. I believe in you.]
Qin Zhili sent another thank you message.
The two stopped talking after that.
