The conversation between Fu Yunze and Long Chao was played very quickly.

  The people in the video fell silent at the same time.

  For a moment, the atmosphere was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

  Shen Mingxiu and the others said nothing and Ye Tian did not break the silence.

  After some time, An Rui’s sobs sounded.

  “When that Long Chao transferred to our class, I felt that he was not a good person.” An Rui lay on the table, tears hanging from her eyelashes as she glared angrily at Shen Mingxiu in the video. “He’s imitating Gu Yang, but he doesn’t have Gu Yang’s sincerity toward you!”


  “In the past, when Gu Yang brought you to fight, he was always the one to bear the responsibility. As for Long Chao, he let you bear it every time. Also, did you pay for Shen Mingxiu’s trip?”


  “If Tiantian hadn’t found out about his true colors, you would have been expelled by him!”


  “And Fu Yunze. To think I used to treat him as my idol. He’s too bad!”


  An Rui’s cries and complaints made the three boys in the video slowly lower their heads.

  Shen Mingxiu held his head and threaded his hands through his short hair. He scratched his scalp and said with a slightly trembling voice, “We misunderstood Brother Yang.”


  “He’s such a good person, how can I misunderstand him?” Shen Mingxiu hit his head hard. “I deserve to die!”


  “During the winter vacation that year, I had a conflict with my family and ran away from home.”


  “At that time, I had a bad relationship with my family and swore not to go back. I was in a daze and didn’t even know that my phone and wallet had been stolen. When I found out, it was snowing heavily and I stood in front of a convenience store, trembling.”


  “I shamelessly borrowed a bowl of instant noodles from the convenience store owner. When I had money, I returned it to him and the boss told me to scram! At that time, I was really embarrassed. I stood in the snow for nearly half the night. The next morning, I was cold and hungry. I borrowed a phone from a passerby and called Brother Yang’s number in a daze.”


  “In less than half an hour, Brother Yang appeared in front of me. After he saw me, he said nothing and put a black down jacket on me before pulling me into the car.”


  “He brought me to his house. I said I wanted to eat a bowl of instant noodles and he made it for me. He even put ham and eggs.”


  “He took me in for half a month and even went to find my family secretly. He communicated with my family and resolved the conflict between me and my family.”


  When Shen Mingxiu talked about the past, his emotions surged and his lips trembled. He closed his red eyes and tears fell.

  “No one can compare to Brother Yang. Long Chao is nothing. I just thought that Brother Yang didn’t want us brothers anymore, so I found someone similar to Brother Yang to be my brother and wanted to divert my attention.”


  “I actually feel worse than anyone else!”


  After Shen Mingxiu finished speaking, Qi Yuan also said with red eyes, “I also met Brother Yang in junior high. Since I was young, my parents could not accompany me often because of work. Without their love, I became rebellious when I grew up.”


  “I followed a group of gangsters in the first year. Later, I found out that they did all kinds of evil. I wanted to quit, but I couldn’t.”


  “I had a showdown with them in an alley once. More than ten of them surrounded me and countless punches and kicks landed on me. At that time, I thought I might die.”


  “Brother Yang appeared at that time. He fought more than ten people alone. In order to help me quit, his head was broken by Brother Society. Brother Society saw that he was not afraid of death and let me quit.”


  “Brother Yang almost lost his life for me, but I still f*cking doubt his brotherhood with me. I really f*cking deserve to die!” Qi Yuan slapped himself ruthlessly.

  There was a crisp sound and even Ye Tian and An Rui, who were separated by the screen, felt the pain.

  Li Lei was already in tears when Shen Mingxiu told him about his experience of becoming good brothers with Gu Yang. Compared to Shen Mingxiu and Qi Yuan, Li Lei was a silent and dull person.

  He was not good with words, but he valued friendship the most.

  When Shen Mingxiu and Qi Yuan caused trouble with Long Chao, he had not participated.

  Li Lei wiped the tears on his face. “My parents divorced early and my father married his stepmother in primary school. My stepmother is a two-faced person. When my father was at home, she was very good to me. When he was not at home, she scolded me and pinched me secretly.”


  “As time passed, there was a trauma in my heart and I didn’t dare to complain to my father. When I was in junior high school, I was still secretly abused by my stepmother. One time in physical education class, the basketball accidentally hit my back and I was in so much pain.”


  “There were so many people, but only Brother Yang noticed my abnormality. He insisted on taking me to the clinic, but I refused. He took me to the washroom and took off my clothes. When he saw the bruises on my back, his eyes immediately turned red.”


  “At that time, my father was working overseas and wouldn’t be back for a while. Brother Yang said that we can’t wait. We have to let my father know about this. He asked for leave from the teacher and took me overseas to find my father.”


  “At that time, I was nervous and afraid. I was afraid that my father wouldn’t believe me, but Brother Yang took the photo of my injured back and went to my father’s office personally. I didn’t know what they said. When my father saw me, he hugged me and cried. He even apologized to me.”


  “Not long after that, my father divorced my stepmother and even sued her. She’s still in jail!”


  The three boys recalled how well Gu Yang had treated them in the past. For a moment, the people in the video cried.

  Ye Tian had never heard Gu Yang mention this. If the three of them had not said it, Ye Tian would not have known that Gu Yang was such a good person.

  Looking at his appearance, she did not know how wild and bad he was!

  After crying for a while, they slowly calmed down.

  Shen Mingxiu clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. “Long Chao and Fu Yunze are despicable and shameless. I’ll beat them up to the hospital tomorrow!”


  “Shen Mingxiu!”


  “Shen Mingxiu!”


  Ye Tian and An Rui called his name in unison.

  Ye Tian frowned and said with a serious expression, “Did you forget Gu Yang’s expectations for you? Do you really not want to be expelled after graduating from high school?”


  An Rui nodded, agreeing with Ye Tian. “That’s right. Using your fists to solve problems all the time. What’s the difference between you and a boorish man?”


  Ye Tian said, “If the three of you listen to me, don’t interact with Long Chao from tomorrow onwards. Study hard and ask Zhou Li or Ruirui if you don’t know anything.”


  “Can we arrange to get into the ideal university together?”


  The three boys were silent for a moment before they looked up at their friends in the video and replied loudly.

  “Yes!”


  “Yes!”


  “Yes!”


  A bright smile appeared on Ye Tian and An Rui’s faces.
