Chu Boyang glanced at Ji Qing before retracting his gaze and following behind Ji Fengmian.

“Why are you following me?”

Ji Fengmian glanced at him without much emotion.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“It’s rare for us to meet. Can’t I spend more time with you?”

Ji Fengmian laughed. “I have something important to do now. Besides, I don’t think you’ll think that I want to spend more time with you.”

“That’s why I didn’t ask for your opinion.”

Ji Fengmian stopped in his tracks. “I haven’t seen you for two months. You’ve become much more thick-skinned.”

“Who asked your temper to be so unpredictable? I have no other choice.”

Ji Fengmian took a deep breath and said, “How should I put it, Chu Boyang? No matter what, we used to be on good terms. It’s rare for us to meet, so we do need to spend more time together. But I really have something important to do now, something that I don’t need outsiders to know.”

These words were really tactful.

In the past, outsiders.

“You and Ye Jingyun don’t need outsiders to know about important matters?”

His tone implied that there was something between him and Ye Jingyun that no one could know.

So she wasn’t qualified to have any secrets.

“You have a problem with that?”

Chu Boyang looked at her for a while before saying slowly,

“I just feel that it’s not worth it for our relationship to be so strained because of another person.”

Ji Fengmian raised an eyebrow and sneered at Ji Qing, who was still standing there.

“You actually want me to let go of my prejudice against Ji Qing, right?”

Chu Boyang frowned. “Why do you have to mention her?”

“Hating her is my business, and how it’s related to you is our business. You’re the one who dragged her into this, not me. On the one hand, it’s because she’s making me unhappy, but on the other hand, she wants me to be more friendly to her no matter what.”

“Chu Boyang, I’m only back for something this time. I didn’t lose my conscience and came here to take a look. I won’t threaten Ji Qing or do anything to her. Don’t try to set me up like a salesman.”

“What are you thinking? Whether I can continue being friends with you or not has to be based on whether I accept Ji Qing, right?”

Chu Boyang quietly listened to her rant. “Does it feel good to hate someone? Aren’t you very sensible? Instead of hating someone, why can’t you let go and make yourself feel better?”

“I’m indeed a little angry, but it’s only for a while. I’ll forget everything the next day. I won’t appear here every day to cause trouble for myself.”

After Ji Fengmian finished speaking, he turned to leave. However, Chu Boyang’s voice sounded.

“Have you really not thought about why you hate Ji Qing?”

“Do I need a reason to hate people?”

“I need it.”

Chu Boyang stood in front of her and stared at her. “On the day you left, Ji Qing said that perhaps you hated her because of me. Because I was your only friend from the beginning to the end, and her appearance distracted me…”

Ji Fengmian tightened his grip in his pocket, but his expression remained calm.

“Whatever she says. As long as you’re happy.”

“If I’m wrong, then give me a reason.”

Ji Fengmian took a deep breath as impatience flashed across his face.

“I’m not here to force you to give me a reason. The reason is that it doesn’t matter to me. To be honest, you and Ji Qing are really annoying. You’ve caused too much trouble.”

With that, she pushed Chu Boyang away and walked out of the orphanage.

In the director’s office.

Uncle Chu said with a serious expression, “I want to confirm Ji Fengmian’s file again. There are really no traces left, right?”

The director nodded. “There’s really no more here.”

“Then those children…” Uncle Chu pinched the space between his eyebrows and sighed with a conflicted expression.

The dean hurriedly said, “I’ll keep an eye on them. I won’t let them interact with outsiders alone for a period of time. As time passes, they’ll naturally forget about it. Few children will always remember a day that doesn’t mean anything to them.”

Uncle Chu took a deep breath and stood up. “Sorry to trouble you. I didn’t expect that after hiding it for so long, it would end up being because I wanted to celebrate her birthday for her. If someone finds out, our Miss might be killed. I’ll be honest with you about the consequences. I hope you…”

“I will, Mr. Chu. Don’t worry, I’ve taken care of Ji Fengmian for more than three years. I naturally hope that she can be healthy. Why would I harm her?”

Uncle Chu nodded. “Thank you. Oh right, have you confirmed that no one has come here to ask about her recently?”

The director shook his head. “No one has asked about her, but Ji Qing…”

Realizing that he had said too much, the dean paused. “It’s nothing…”

“No, is this child the one who announced our Miss’s birthday?”

“She was careless. The child couldn’t think too much…”

“I’m not that scheming to think of an eight or nine-year-old child. I just don’t want anyone to find out about Miss through her…”

“I’ll pay attention to that.”

Uncle Chu nodded solemnly.

Chu Boyang had a temper after all. It would be a lie to say that he didn’t feel anything after being stabbed by Ji Fengmian, but this was the first time he had been so annoyed.

She wondered how much patience she had.

He was trying his best to salvage this friendship, but she could kick it away anytime.

In the past, she was tactful. But now, she wasn’t.

His temper flared and he didn’t chase after her.

Seeing his ugly expression, Ji Qing knew that the two of them had not reconciled.

Seeing him walking over, she went up to him. “Brother Boyang, is Sister Mian still angry?”

“I can’t be bothered with her. Not many people can withstand her bad temper!”

With that, she left.

Ji Qing bit her lips and looked at the school entrance. She ran to the flower bed to put down the watering can and chased after him.

Ye Jingyun’s house was built on the mountainside.

Ji Fengmian was walking opposite when Ji Qing’s voice sounded from behind. She frowned and quickened her pace.

However, Ji Qing had no intention of stopping.

Disgusted, Ji Fengmian stopped and panted as he watched her run over.

“Sister Mian, I want to explain to you… Brother Boyang really cares about you. During your absence…”

“You don’t have to explain anything to me. There’s no misunderstanding between us. I know that he cares. After all, we’ve been friends for years.”

“Then why didn’t you reconcile?”

“Why? He made me unhappy. Why must there be a problem if I don’t want to reconcile with him?”

“Go back, don’t talk nonsense with me. Even if he’s wronged, he has to seek justice for you. If it’s for our own good, then stay away from me.”

Ji Qing refused to give up. “I really hope that you two won’t fall out because of me. You clearly care about Brother Boyang too. You could have been fine. Why did you have to become like this…”

Ji Fengmian sneered. “You’re really kind and innocent! No wonder Chu Boyang likes you so much.”

Ji Qing shook her head. “I’m not kind. Back then, when the flowers were destroyed, I suspected that you were the one who did it. I even blamed you and hated you. I even dirtied your notebook and threw rubbish beside your desk. I wanted the teacher to criticize you…”

Ji Fengmian’s eyebrows twitched. She was addicted to being innocent.

She actually took such a childish trick to heart…

Actually, Ji Qing was indeed better than her.

At the very least, he was more innocent than her. The things he considered were things that she should consider at her age. There were some things that she couldn’t think too much about and wouldn’t understand at all.

What did Ji Qing do wrong?

Nothing.

But she just didn’t like her.

Chu Boyang said that she hated Ji Qing because of him. It was Ji Qing who reminded him.

Perhaps it was.

Ji Qing was a little uneasy. “Sister Mian…”

Ji Fengmian blinked. If she hated him, so be it. This time, she even had a reason to hate him.

“Perhaps you’re right. That’s why both of you should stay away from me in the future so that I don’t have to worry when I see you.”

Ji Fengmian left after saying that, but Ji Qing followed behind her.

She kept talking about how good Chu Boyang was and how much he cared about her.

She was annoyed. He was really clingy and noisy.

Knowing that she was determined to pester him, he gritted his teeth and turned around to walk towards the entrance of the orphanage.

She had to go back and throw this annoying thing to Chu Boyan.
