Chapter 20

Chapter 20

Underneath the classroom building.

Jiang Xu leaned against a tree, observing the girl standing before him.

He said casually, “Speak. What is it?”

Jiang Xu had not wanted to come out at first.

However, he thought it was better to get everything settled once and for all.

To prevent this woman from bothering him again in the future.

Seeing Jiang Xu’s cold tone and indifferent expression,

Zhou Qingyue felt a surge of injustice, “Why did you delete me from your friends list?”

Jiang Xu: “Because I do not want any contact with you anymore.

I made it very clear to you.

I no longer have any feelings for you.

Can we just act like strangers to each other and not disturb one another?”

Zhou Qingyue could no longer hold back her tears, which burst forth.

Feeling utterly wronged.

Her state of tearful sorrow surely evoked a sense of pity.

Enough to spark the impulse to embrace her and provide comfort.

But Jiang Xu’s heart was as hard as a rock.

In his previous life, he had been deeply hurt by this woman.

Forsaking the chance to pursue higher education at a top-tier domestic university.

Giving her the money his parents had saved to buy a house in the city for him to start her own business.

At that time, property prices were not outrageous.

His two million yuan could completely buy an eighty to ninety square meter apartment.

But a few years later, property prices had risen tenfold.

He wasted his prime years for her.

And what did he get in the end?

Instead of sweet love, he had to witness her snuggling with a rich second generation.

If Jiang Xu were to spare one more glance at this woman in this life, he would despise himself.

“I don’t believe it! You liked me so much before!

Let’s reconcile, Jiang Xu.”

With that, Zhou Qingyue reached out to grab Jiang Xu’s hand.

But he avoided her.

Jiang Xu sneered coldly, “Yes, I did like you very much before.

I was good to you in every way. But how were you towards me?

Every day, rain or shine, I sent you to school and brought you home.

I scrimped and saved to buy various gifts for you.

I helped you with duty days, cleaning, homework.

I did everything that I could do for you.

But how did you respond to me?

Not to mention equal return, I never even heard you say thank you once.

Have you really taken me as your servant?

Even the most passionate heart can cool down if blown by the cold wind for too long.

Anyway, I’ll leave it at that.

In the future, stop bothering me, I no longer want any association with you.”

Having said that, Jiang Xu walked back to the classroom with his hands pocketed.

Feeling refreshed and invigorated.

The resentment he had accumulated from his past life had been completely vented.

He would be more happy in the future.

However, this happiness would have nothing to do with Zhou Qingyue.

Zhou Qingyue stood rigid, as if immobilized.

Turns out Jiang Xu had done so much for her during the past year.

Turns out she had disappointed him so much.

Zhou Qingyue was full of regret.

Was she really like that before?

She wanted to slap herself.

She turned around.

Watching Jiang Xu’s retreating figure.

Zhou Qingyue wanted to catch up and apologize.

But as soon as she lifted her foot, she paused.

Tears blurred her vision.

Jiang Xu made it very clear just now.

He did not want to have anything to do with her in this lifetime.

She did not dare to bother him again.

This time, Zhou Qingyue faced the reality.

She had lost Jiang Xu completely.

She had lost a boy who once loved her sincerely and treated her so well.

Zhou Qingyue felt empty inside, as if a chunk of her heart had been removed.

She squatted on the ground, crying silently.

Jiang Xu didn’t take this matter to heart.

He continued to read and study as before.

Occasionally, he would also tutor An Nuonuo.

And tease her sometimes.

Seeing her blushing all over her face, not knowing how to resist, he found it very amusing.

This girl was a real gem.

Soon, it was time for school to end in the afternoon.

Jiang Xu said to An Nuonuo, “I’ll be back soon, in about an hour.

After you’ve finished cleaning up, just read a book or do your homework in the classroom.

I’ll come back to get you and walk you home.”

An Nuonuo shook her head, “No need, I can go home myself. Don’t bother.”

Jiang Xu pinched her cheek, “I’m simply letting you know, not asking for your opinion.

If I don’t see you when I come back, you’ll have to deal with the consequences.”

Then he left with Fu Yanjie.

An Nuonuo huffed, making a cute sad face.

What the hell.

Jiang was being so domineering.

But strangely enough, she did not seem to be angry at all.

“What’s come over you today? You’re actually accompanying me to the Internet cafe?” Fu Yanjie expressed his surprise.

Jiang Xu leaned on his shoulder, “I have to consider your feelings occasionally.

See, isn’t your dad good to you?”

Fu Yanjie: “Get lost!”

They arrived at the Internet cafe.

In this era, Internet cafes were dirty and chaotic.

Dark and smoky.

Jiang Xu and Fu Yanjie got two computers.

After Jiang Xu switched on his computer, he began to type.

At first, he was a bit slow.

But after about ten minutes of warming up, his typing speed skyrocketed.

He had already drafted an outline, all stored in his mind. It flowed smoothly.

Curious, Fu Yanjie asked, “What are you doing? Aren’t you supposed to play games at an Internet cafe?”

“I’m writing.”

Jiang Xu did not turn his head, his gaze fixed on the screen.

“Let me see what you’re writing…”

Fu Yanjie took a peek, but quickly grew bored.

It was all about youth, unrequited love, and suffering.

What the hell?

How could this be more interesting than a game?

An hour went by quickly.

He checked the word count.

Five thousand words.

He was in good form, exceeding his usual standards.

Jiang Xu plugged in his USB stick and copied the article onto it.

He stood up, patted Fu Yanjie’s shoulder, “I’m heading out. You can keep playing.”

“Eh, why are you leaving so soon? Just spend a little more time here.”

He left the Internet cafe. There was a print shop just around the corner.

He spent two yuan to print his article.

Then, while hurrying back to school, he sent it to Story Meeting by mail.

That meant he made one hundred and fifty yuan in no time.

He hurried back to school as fast as possible.

Jiang Xu reached the classroom door.

He immediately spotted An Nuonuo.

Apart from her, there was also an unfamiliar boy.

By the looks of him, he was likely in a senior grade.

Tall and handsome.

He was animatedly telling An Nuonuo, “Classmate, I’m from the second class of the second year. My name is Wang Ming.

Can we exchange QQ information? I think you’re very cute.”

An Nuonuo shook her head like a frightened rabbit, “I don’t have QQ.”

“How is that possible? Don’t worry. I’m not a bad person, I mean no harm.”

“I really don’t have it,” An Nuonuo said softly.

She was almost backed into a corner.

Wang Ming was not ready to give up and took another step forward.

His eyes burning with enthusiasm, “Classmate, give me a chance. I just want to make friends with you.”

At this point, An Nuonuo looked ready to cry.
