Among them were Deng Ziyue and the other students. Tang Susu didn’t expect to meet them again in such a fashion.

The girl who had been standing on the bridge and acting arrogantly recently was now kneeling on the ground, begging for mercy.

“I beg you, sir! Since Xiaojie and I are roommates, I’m still Xiaojie’s only friend. Look, this is the bracelet she gave me. I’ve been wearing it all this time! Please let me stay here. 1 won’t interact with Shi Shaochen and the others anymore. I beg you!”

Deng Ziyue was crying her heart out when she suddenly felt a figure appearing beside her.

She looked up in a daze and saw a beautiful face looking down at her.

“As far as I know, you don’t have a good relationship with Xiaojie, right?”

“Tang Susu, don’t talk nonsense!” Deng Ziyue resented her!

Especially when she thought about how she had entered the shelter in a helicopter yesterday and stole the attention of the audience. Jealousy corroded her heart!

How was Tang Susu, who should have been the first to pass away, able to remain so stylish and composed, capturing the notice and admiration of everyone?

However, she couldn’t even get a crystal core. She was relegated to a mere commoner and had to plead with others!

“To be precise, you only approached her because her family was rich. She was innocent and gullible. You could easily swindle expensive jewelry from her with a few words. Behind her back, you called her stupid and ugly. You even incited others to bully her in school…”

With every word Tang Susu said, Wei Chunhua’s eyes widened. She asked Deng Ziyue, who almost made his heart soften, “Is what she said true?!”

“No, it isn’t true! If I really did that, why would Xiaojie treat me as a friend? Tang Susu, on the other hand, is famous for taking advantage of and bullying others because of her poor health, especially Xiaojie!” Deng Ziyue said tearfully.

However, she didn’t know how close Wei Chunhua was to Tang Susu and how well he knew her personality.

Wei Chunhua closed his eyes. How many lies had she told him so blatantly? n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Deng Ziyue, 1’11 give you one last chance. Did Xiaojie really die because she saved you?”

Tang Susu didn’t expect Deng Ziyue would have said that. On second thought, with Mr. Wei’s character, he would no doubt take care of the person whom his daughter sacrificed herself to protect. He would even treat the person well because that person was the important person who entrusted her daughter’s life to him.

No wonder Deng Ziyue had not slimmed down since the first time she met her. Instead, she had become much rounder. With Shi Shaochen and the rest’s style, they would not have given her anything good to make her so fair and chubby, right?

Deng Ziyue clenched her fists, and her tears fell even harder. “Yes! I’ll make good on my debt to you, Mr. Wei! Xiaojie saved my life, so treat me as your daughter now. I’m willing to be filial to you on behalf of her!”

Deng Ziyue had said the same thing before, but what was Wei Chunhua’s reaction?

He was happy and moved. He felt that although this child was a little stupid and unruly, at least her heart was not bad and she knew how to repay a favor…

Seeing Wei Chunhua falling silent, Deng Ziyue panicked. “Mr. Wei! No… Dad! Xiaojie saved me with tremendous effort. If something were to happen to me, Xiaojie could never rest in peace!”

Tang Susu couldn’t stand it anymore. “What if Xiaojie didn’t save you and even died because of you?!”

Deng Ziyue was stunned. Wei Chunhua, who was immersed in pain, didn’t notice, but Tang Susu knew that she had guessed correctly.

Although she had already guessed it, she still felt sad for Xiaojie. She was used repeatedly, even in death!

She grabbed a student and said, “Tell Mr. Wei what kind of person Deng Ziyue is and what she did to the girl who fell off the building on the tenth floor of the Bio Lab Building. If you tell him everything, I’ll plead a case for you to stay.” The boy was stunned for a moment. When he thought about how powerful the Tang family was, he immediately told them everything he knew about Deng Ziyue, especially the details of the night when she forced the girl to slide down the stairs and even pushed her to her death…

Although Wei Chunhua was already mentally prepared, such blatant evilness still shocked him!

“…You killed Xiaojie too?”

“No, 1 didn’t…” Deng Ziyue refused to admit it. “Tang Susu has a grudge against me. She especially arranged for this person to pin the blame on me. Mr. Wei, you can’t let her deceive you!”

“Alright then.” Tang Susu was amused. “Since Xiaojie risked her life to protect you, it means that you must be very important to her.”

Deng Ziyue didn’t know what she was up to again. She was on guard and didn’t dare to speak as easily as before, lest she fell into her trap!

“So, you must know what she likes, right?” Tang Susu snorted.

“There are various things that a person enjoys. As long as you can tell us one thing, whether it’s color, food, sports, or music that Xiaojie likes… As long as you say one thing, I’ll believe that you and Xiaojie are true friends. That Xiaojie was willing to sacrifice her life to save you!”

Tang Susu was betting on Deng Ziyue’s stupidity that she wouldn’t know anything.

Deng Ziyue’s heart tightened. Damn Tang Susu, how did she know all this? Why did she have to know?

Wei Chunhua finally managed to pull himself together and marveled at how he hadn’t paid attention to this before. He had believed her just by hearing her words.

If Xiaojie really died in vain, how much did he disappoint his daughter by protecting and taking care of her murderer?!

He took a deep breath. “Can you tell me, then? You don’t even know anything that Xiaojie likes, which means that you’ve never cared about her at all. You never treated her as a friend. Why would Xiaojie be so stupid and sacrifice her life for someone like you?!”

His shout frightened Deng Ziyue, and she quickly sobbed, “She likes green…”

She said that because she had searched through her memories and realized that she seemed to enjoy wearing clothes of this color.

Thinking of this, she became even more determined.

Wei Chunhua’s entire body started trembling. If Tang Mingzhou hadn’t helped him up in time, he would have nearly fallen.

“Green is the color that she hates the most!!”

“No…” Deng Ziyue felt as if she had been struck by lightning.

“She often wears green because someone once said that she looks good in green, but we all know that she looks the worst in green. Deng Ziyue, you should know very well whether that person is praising her or making fun of her!”

“No, I didn’t say it… In any case, Xiaojie saved me.. If you want your daughter’s life to be sacrificed in vain, just kick me out!”
