Chapter 36

**

Recently, Su Qiuge liked to spend her afternoon break reciting books on the roof. There were very few people at this time and the air quality was also very good.

Su Qiuge moved a stool and sat behind a raised platform that pointed towards the sky.

She started to recite the book in a quiet voice.

Didn’t know who placed a few potted plants on the platform, but the unfamiliar flowers grew vigorously.

After who knows how long, sounds of a conversation floated by her ear. She thought she was hallucinating until she heard a familiar name. It made her realize that there really were people talking nearby.

She stretched her head out from behind the platform and caught a glimpse of two silhouettes in the distance.

Between them, there was a woman dressed in a fashionable and sophisticated manner. She extinguished the cigarette in her hand and opened her red lips. The sound of her voice transmitted over.

“Xinglin, when I came here I asked the teacher about your situation. You are doing a very good job. I know you don’t like your mother, but you can’t ruin your excellent future prospects because of your willfulness.”

“Compared to outsiders, it’s still mother that loves you the most. Whatever you want, mom will do her best to get it for you……”

Opposite of the woman stood a tall youth with a grim expression.

It was her seatmate, Xie Xinglin.

Although Su Qiuge knew that it wasn’t good to eavesdrop on others, she also couldn’t suddenly go out and say “hello, goodbye.” Therefore, she could only retract her head and withdraw into the corner.

She recalled the Xie Xinglin she had just seen and slowly blinked her eyes.

From head to toe, his entire body emitted a sense of loathing and his expression was incomparably gloomy.

After having been at the same desk as him for so many days, she knew that he was someone that could face anything with a calm mind. But rather than saying he was naturally cold, she could more or less tell that it was because he simply didn’t care. It was rare to see him lose control of his emotions like this.

The woman said a lot and then Su Qiuge heard a sneer.

Su Qiuge could even imagine the youth’s eyebrows raised slightly at this moment, arrogant and cruel.

His extremely cold voice sounded, “I’ve said it before, I don’t want to ever see you again.”

The woman frowned and stepped forward, “Xinglin, why are you being so insensible? Mom also had her own difficulties back then. Why can’t you understand me? It’s been so long, why do you still have so much prejudice against me?”

“You have to know that it’s impossible for anyone else to love you more than your mom does, and there isn’t anyone else that can provide more for you. Your dad is already dead——”

The woman was in the middle of talking when she suddenly let out a scream. Something seems to have broken and let out a pitter-patter sound.

Su Qiuge squatted against the wall, she didn’t try to see what happened.

She only heard Xie Xinglin say——

“Leave.”

The tone was one of complete hostility.

Then there were sounds of high heels hastily rushing away. The woman left without a word.

The rooftop returned to its original tranquility.

It was as if the farce just now was all an illusion.

Su Qiuge hugged her language textbook as she crouched for a while. When she confirmed that there was no more sound, she slowly stood up.

As she stood up, she realized that her legs were numb.

She decided that she won’t come to the rooftop to recite in the future in order to avoid being killed as a witness after accidentally listening in on a confidential conversation next time.

She slowly put the stool back to its original location and then walked to the rooftop door.

Right as she was about to walk through the door, her sight suddenly darkened.

Then her route was blocked by a person’s arm. Only then did she realize that the youth hadn’t gone far, she almost ran into his embrace.

She raised her eyes and met the youth’s gloomy gaze.

He was tall and his elbow was bent as it was supported by the door frame. His eyelashes drooped down as he looked at her from above.

From afar, it was a scene full of ambiguity, as if he was holding a young girl in his embrace.

However, he added seven-point killing intent.

“……”

At this time, Su Qiuge silently typed out a word in her heart:

“F*ck——”

Cool, the vicious female cannon fodder secretly listened to the male lead’s private conversation on the rooftop and was caught red-handed. This probably couldn’t be washed white.
