“Yesterday, you said that you invited a lot of handsome guys to a dinner party. This should be a social gathering, right? I didn’t go because I didn’t need it. I already promised Senior to visit the neighbouring school. Why would I suddenly not go?”


  Qin Shu smiled. “As for you, if you want to pull me to a social gathering, I can’t refuse. Han Xiao and I are good friends. By saying this, are you trying to sow discord?”


  Qin Shu’s words were very straightforward. To a person like Yan Jing, there was no need to be perfunctory. When it was time to say something, he would not show any mercy. When it was time to strike, he would not show any mercy.

  Yan Jing’s face turned pale. She did not expect Qin Shu to be so straightforward. She did not leave any leeway.

  She raised her head and looked at Han Xiao in chagrin. She wanted him to help her say something.

  Han Xiao’s gaze was fixed on Qin Shu. He did not notice Yan Jing’s gaze at all. He probably did not want to notice any other girls besides Qin Shu.

  Yan Jing noticed that Han Xiao’s gaze had been fixed on Qin Shu the entire time. She gritted her teeth. Han Xiao had been deceived by Qin Shu. Otherwise, how could Han Xiao take a fancy to a woman like her?

  Fu Tingyan and Bo Ye walked in at this time. They were a little surprised when they saw Qin Shu. They had never heard her mention that she would participate in the event before.

  “You guys came early.”


  Qiao ran said, “I’ve only been here for a short while. Have your waist recovered ?”


  “Yes,” Fu Tingyan replied.

  They remembered that his waist had recovered a lot in the past few days, so it was normal for him to attend.

  Jun Li was the last to come. He was wearing a woolen coat, which made his figure look more slender and straight. He was wearing a black scarf, but his face was still very pale.

  “You’re all here. Let’s get moving.” His voice was elegant and low, and his eyes were very gentle.

  Hearing the familiar voice, Qin Shu turned around to look at Jun Li. She sized up his expression and asked, “How have you been these two days?”


  Jun Li looked down at her. “I’ve taken two doses of medicine. It’s somewhat effective.”


  Qin Shu heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that. “That’s good.”


  Han Xiao’s dark eyes looked at Jun Li and Qin Shu. He felt that the relationship between Jun Li and her seemed to be better than his. He clenched his fists tightly.

  “Let’s go.”


  Jun Li was the first to walk out.

  Qiao ran followed suit.

  Han Xiao took a step forward and walked out side by side with Qin Shu.

  Fu Tingyan frowned when he saw Han Xiao suddenly walk over. He had a feeling that Han Xiao was deliberately trying to get close to Qin Shu, just like when they were at Hua Feng.

  His brother was not around, so he wanted to help his brother watch over any man who was trying to get close to Qin Shu.

  He hurriedly walked over. When he left, he even hooked his arm around Bo Ye’s neck and asked him to follow him.

  Bo Ye, “.……”


  Yan Jing looked at the few people walking in front of her and looked at Han Xiao who was standing beside Qin Shu. She gritted her teeth in anger and followed him.

  Fu Tingyan walked to Qin Shu’s side and glanced at Han Xiao. “I didn’t expect the three of us to be together again.”


  Qin Shu and Han Xiao knew that Fu Tingyan was talking about the three of them being present during the competition between the two schools.

  Qin Shu looked at the few boys with extremely good looks and said confidently, “We’re not afraid this time. The good-looking boys from our school are very handsome. We can beat them before they even make a move.”


  Fu Tingyan smiled. “I heard that they have lot of beautiful, talented girls this time.”


  Qin Shu said, “They have a lot of beautiful girls, and we have a lot of handsome boys. We’re all talented.”


  Fu Tingyan smiled and did not comment.

  The group of people took the school bus to the school next door.

  Although it was a neighbouring school, it was actually quite a distance. It took more than ten minutes on bus.

  After Qin Shu got on the bus, Jun Li waved at her. “Qin Shu.”


  Seeing that Jun Li was calling her, she looked over. He was sitting in one seat. There were many empty seats on the bus, so it was okay for one person to take up two seats.

  She walked over and sat down next to Jun Li.

  Han Xiao’s outstretched hand stopped in mid-air and looked at Qin Shu sitting next to Jun Li.

  Yan Jing was sitting by the window. When she saw Han Xiao get into the car, she shouted at him, “Han Xiao, sit here.”


  Han Xiao glanced at Yan Jing and looked at the seat beside Qin Shu. He walked over and sat on the seat beside Qin Shu, separated by the aisle.

  Seeing this, Yan Jing did not flare up as she wanted to maintain her image.

  Bo Ye walked to the back and sat by the window. With one hand against the window, he looked out of the car.

  Fu Tingyan followed closely. He saw Qin Shu sitting beside Jun Li and Han Xiao sitting next to him. He frowned.

  Then, he looked at Bo Ye and saw him sitting at the back. He walked over and sat directly beside Bo Ye.

  When Fu Tingyan leaned over, his body weight was almost on Bo Ye. His gaze followed the window. “What are you looking at?”


  “Nothing.”Bo Ye turned his head to look at Fu Tingyan. Ever since his waist was injured, he had always liked to lean on him. He also liked to order him around and wash his socks.

  At this moment, his phone rang. Fu Tingyan’s gaze turned to Bo Ye’s pocket.

  Bo Ye took out his phone and looked at the caller ID. Brother.

  He hesitated for a moment before picking up the call.

  “Brother, what’s the matter?”


  Bo Yin could not help but growl on the other end of the line, “What exactly do you want to do before you’re willing to come back?”


  Bo Ye said, “I’m not going back.”


  Bo Yin said, “Even if you don’t come back now, you’ll still have to come back during the winter vacation.”


  “I don’t intend to go back.” Bo Ye’s voice was still calm.

  Bo Yin stood up from the other end of the line. “Say that again?”


  “I don’t intend to go back,” Bo Ye repeated.

  Bo Yin was really angry this time. “You really want me to kidnap you back, don’t you?”


  Bo Ye said, “Brother, you should know why I don’t want to go back.”


  “You don’t believe me, do you? You don’t believe that I can protect you?”


  Bo Ye gripped his phone tightly and fell into silence.

  Fu Tingyan, who was sitting at the side, heard Bo Ye’s words and frowned. He couldn’t hear what the other party was saying, so he didn’t know what they were saying.

  He simply leaned over and eavesdropped openly.

  Bo Ye sensed that Fu Tingyan was eavesdropping, so he moved his body to the side a little.

  Fu Tingyan frowned and moved his body as well. He continued to lean against the phone to eavesdrop.

  “Ye, trust me. I won’t let them do that. I’ve already tried my best to compete for the position of the head of the family. Once I sit on it, I won’t use you as a marriage pawn, and no one will dare to use you as one. Trust me, okay?”


  Bo Yin tried his best to stay calm, but when he heard that Bo Ye wasn’t even coming back for winter vacation, he couldn’t help but want to fly into a rage.

  With his phone pasted to his ear, Fu Tingyan heard every word of the other party’s words clearly.

  Marriage alliance?

  Who Did Bo Ye have a marriage alliance with?

  How old was he when he had a marriage alliance?

  After Bo Ye heard Bo Yin’s words, he fell into silence again.

  Not even bothering about Fu Tingyan who was eavedropping at the side.
