“Must I go out just because you’re waiting for me?”

Chu Jing shook his head. Uncle Chu and Aunt Chu looked at each other and pursed their lips.

Uncle Chu sat down and Aunt Chu scooped soup for them.

Ji Fengmian took a sip of the soup and said calmly, “Aunt Chu, my appetite hasn’t been good recently. Put some vinegar in the next soup.”

Auntie Chu sighed and asked, “Do you want to go to the hospital?”

Ji Fengmian shook his head. “It’s nothing. Sometimes, people have to change their taste.”

Chu Jing suddenly said, “So you’re not going to replace Chu Boyang too, right?”

She felt a sudden pain in her calf and looked up to see her father’s warning gaze.

Aunt Chu gave him a disapproving look.

He endured the pain and stuffed a mouthful of food into his mouth.

Ji Fengmian still didn’t react.

After finishing the soup and barely eating a few mouthfuls of rice, she put down her chopsticks.

Auntie Chu was a little worried. “You’re eating too little.”

Ji Fengmian stood up. “Eat when you’re hungry.”

“Then I’ll make some refreshing dishes for you later.”

“Okay.”

In low spirits, no one said anything as she entered her bedroom.

It was nothing strange for them to break up suddenly.

She returned to her bedroom and sat at her desk. She opened her laptop and searched for a movie with a good reputation. Then, she picked up her phone and played a game.

She watched a movie and played games.

During this period, calls and messages kept coming in.

She hung up and ignored the message before continuing to play her game.

All these years, there weren’t many phone numbers on her phone. Other than playing games and looking at the news, this phone existed for Chu Boyang.

Besides him, no one would contact her.

She didn’t know what he wanted to say, but just the sight of his number annoyed her. No matter what he said, she would be disgusted.

The movie and the game were side by side. She had no reason to find trouble for herself.

Downstairs, Chu Boyang leaned against the car with his head lowered as he scrolled through his phone. His expression darkened when he saw the messages.

He looked up at her room. The lights were off, but a faint colorful light flickered and danced in her room.

He could imagine now that she must be sitting at the desk by the window, watching television and playing with her phone.

Even when she saw his calls and messages, she cut them off or ignored them without any expression.

He knew that she would ignore him now, but if he didn’t do anything, she might still remember him.

Most importantly, he was uneasy.

He naturally wouldn’t agree to her breaking up.

Although he was destined to be disappointed, he could only be anxious and afraid if he did nothing.

After some time, the lights in the room suddenly lit up. Her shadow could be seen faintly on the window. He stood up and pressed the dial button.

However, the shadow had already turned around and left without answering the call.

After taking a shower, Ji Fengmian went to bed and turned off the lights.

They spent another four hours downstairs.

It was rare for Chu Jing to take the initiative to tidy up the trash in the room and carry it downstairs.

It was ten o’clock in the evening and Chu Boyang was still standing there.

Shaking his head, he walked over with his pocket.

“Brother, your sincerity is almost done. Let’s go back.”

Chu Boyang glanced at him. “How is she?”

“I don’t have a good appetite. I didn’t eat much for dinner, but I came out to eat a little after nine. It’s normal. Now…”

He raised his hand and glanced at Ji Fengmian’s window. “After eating and drinking your fill, it’s time to sleep.”

She turned to glance at Chu Boyang and saw him pursing his lips without any expression.

“Although she has a brain, most people don’t want to think too much. They want to get by. How did you provoke her to the point of breaking up?”

Although he was openly poking at her pain, he was really curious!

“I have to get by…” Chu Boyang muttered the word.

He didn’t want her to be by his side.

He could give her anything she wanted.

Why was she getting by?

Seeing him like this, Chu Jing knew that he wouldn’t be able to get anything useful out of him.

“Anyway… that woman is very ruthless. When she’s happy, she’s like a Buddha. When she’s ruthless, she’s like a demon. She’s impervious to everything. I think you should understand her, so you should go back. If she doesn’t want to talk to you, you can wait here for her for ten days to half a month. It’s useless and you still have to annoy her… When she’s annoyed, our entire family will have to live a tight life. You should accumulate some virtue…”

“If that’s the case, I’m sorry,” said Chu Boyang.

He had to see her. He didn’t agree to break up.

Chu Jing choked for a long time. “… Each one is more powerful than the other. Alright, if you want to wait, just wait. At most, I won’t go home…”

She didn’t manage to get anything out of him, nor did she achieve her goal. She had thrown away the trash for nothing.

The next day, she was woken up by the alarm. Ji Fengmian got up and walked to the desk to turn it off.

She opened the curtains and saw the familiar car.

She unplugged her phone and went to the washroom.

After washing up and having breakfast, she went to school with Chu Jing.

The car arranged by Uncle Chu was already waiting downstairs.

Just as they came out, Chu Boyang opened the car door and got out.

Ji Fengmian opened the car door and got in without even looking at him.

Chu Jing glanced at him and shrugged before getting into the car.

The car drove straight to school.

Ji Fengmian was playing games on his phone.

Chu Jing watched as Chu Boyang’s car followed behind.

“He has been waiting downstairs since yesterday afternoon and hasn’t left for the entire night. Now, he’s following us. Hey, even though the two of you are fooling around, it’s enough…”

Ji Fengmian didn’t look up but asked, “Do you think… he could sleep last night?”

Chu Jing thought of Chu Boyang’s tired look this morning and shook his head. “I think he’s exhausted. I can tell that he likes you. If you suddenly break up with him, it would be heartless of him to sleep with you. If that’s the case, it’s not worth it!”

Ji Fengmian was silent for two seconds before nodding. “He shouldn’t be able to sleep. I’m the one who chose him. I understand that.”

Chu Jing rolled his eyes. “Since you understand, hurry up and dote on him…”

Ji Fengmian remained silent.

When she spoke again, Chu Jing’s jaw almost dropped.

“Hey, is there any reward for reporting fatigue?”

Chu Jing turned to look at her. “Are you serious…”

Perhaps the other party didn’t give Ji Fengmian a satisfactory answer. She asked again,

“Then what punishment will the tired driver receive?… Is it just deducting points and not locking him up for education?… Alright, I’ll report him…”

Ji Fengmian revealed Chu Boyang’s car model and license plate before hanging up.

Chu Jing was speechless.

This woman was indeed not to be trifled with.

“Is that necessary? It’s not easy to determine if he’s tired from driving. There’s nothing we can do if he doesn’t admit it.”

“Not sleeping for 17 hours is equivalent to driving drunk…”

“Huh?”

Chu Jing blinked. “There’s such a saying?”

Ji Fengmian didn’t say anything and sat lazily on the seat. “Who cares? He’s annoying.”

Chu Boyang was stopped at the next intersection.

When Ji Fengmian reached school, he felt much better that Chu Boyang didn’t chase after him.

However, it was only two classes before Chu Boyang arrived at school.

However, he didn’t take the initiative to talk to her and only followed beside her.

The people around them could tell that the two of them were not normal. They wondered what had happened between them and if they would really break up.

With graduation around the corner, there were people who chose to go their separate ways.

Ji Fengmian invited Chu Jing for lunch, and Chu Boyang followed.

Chu Jing was also very embarrassed. “Then… Eh? Where did Ji Qing go? Aren’t you guys usually together? Why don’t I see her today?”

The atmosphere changed instantly.

Ji Fengmian smiled sarcastically.

Chu Boyan’s face darkened.

Chu Jing seemed to have sensed something from the atmosphere and his scalp went numb.

So that was how it was. She had stepped on a landmine.

Ji Fengmian didn’t eat much. He pushed the plate away and drank the yogurt.

Chu Boyang looked at her leftovers and couldn’t help but ask, “Why are you eating this?”

Ji Fengmian sat opposite him, sucking on the straw as he glanced at him lazily.

“Did I not make myself clear yesterday, or is there something wrong with your ears?”

It seemed like she had no intention of avoiding yesterday’s matter.

“I disagree.”

Ji Fengmian didn’t say anything. The bottle was empty and the straw was filled with air.

Putting the milk bottle aside, she took a deep breath and said calmly,

“Then what should I do? I want to break up.”

“I disagree.”

“I didn’t ask if you agree or not.” Ji Fengmian looked a little impatient. “Can’t we part on good terms? On account that I risked my life to save Ji Qing back then?”

Her words were unpleasant. Ignoring Chu Boyang’s expression, she could tell from Chu Jing’s expression.

Ji Fengmian picked up the banana beside him and sniffed it. “It’s fine if you don’t want to meet her. Since we’ve met, I almost lost my life to save her. I’m just thanking you. No matter how I think about it, my life is too cheap. It’s not too much to ask for some benefits now, right?”

The smell of the banana made her frown slightly. She took it off and played with it.

“Then, you can give me the rest. After that, we won’t owe each other anything. We’ll go our separate ways.”

Her life was precious. It was too easy for him to break up with her.

Chu Boyang had completely lost his appetite.

“Ji Fengmian.”

“How much is suitable? Hmm… I’ll be more practical. I won’t ask for too much. Ten million yuan will do.”

Chu Boyang pursed his lips into a sharp line. There was obvious anger in his cold voice.

“Ji Fengmian!”

Ji Fengmian placed his hand on the table and twirled the banana with his slender fingers. His smile was soft.

“What am I doing? This is the friendship price you’re going to offer at the end of next year. It can’t be any lower. Is Ji Qing’s life not worth ten million yuan in your heart? Or do you think I’m belittling her? If you want to give me more, I naturally won’t reject you.”

Chu Boyang stood up abruptly. “You don’t have to provoke me with such words just to cut ties with me…”

Ji Fengmian pursed his lips. “You’re thinking too much. It’s true that you want to cut ties with her, but it’s also true that you want Ji Qing to thank me. I don’t owe her anything. It’s not too much to save her and get her to repay me, right?”

As she spoke, she stood up slowly and said, “Ten million yuan is an insult to her. I don’t mind giving her some. We’ll meet again if you want to give me money. If you don’t want to… then don’t ever appear in front of me again.”

She turned to leave, but Chu Boyang stepped forward and grabbed her hand.

She was clearly provoking him on purpose, but he was still provoked.

He was furious, but he couldn’t let her go just like that.

She suppressed the anger in her heart and took a deep breath. After a long while, she said in a cold and tense voice,

“Alright, since you care so much about Ji Qing’s existence, I’ll ignore her… Are you satisfied now?”

Ji Fengmian sneered. “You make it sound like I’m forcing you to do this. Don’t look so aggrieved. You make it seem like you’ve made a heartbreaking decision.”

“I know myself. You should think about who you really care about. From the start, I told you not to confuse your childhood sweetheart’s feelings with love. Now, I’m giving it to you. Ask yourself what your feelings are to you.

How could you not know what she thinks of you? No matter what I say, you’ve never said anything about how you want to be with her.

She was in a relationship and her temper was worse than losing a few hundred million yuan in the company.

Why was that? You don’t understand, but I do. I don’t want to make things difficult for myself. Otherwise, how much patience and energy do you think I have to endure until the two of you have broken through the last window and are in love with each other before kicking me away?

Chu Boyang, that’s enough. Don’t overdo it. Otherwise, when the time comes, it won’t look good if we fall out. It’s just a relationship. If we don’t get along, we’ll break up. There’s no need to embarrass everyone. I’ve never seen others break up before.”

Chu Boyang looked at her coldly. “Are you done?”

Ji Fengmian raised an eyebrow. “Do you understand?”

“I know very well who I like and who I love. There’s no need for anyone to remind me. I don’t see Ji Qing as an obstacle between us, but if you’re unhappy, I agree that she’s indeed a problem. Keeping a distance from her and not participating in her matters is the best solution. So you don’t have to be unhappy, nor do you have to worry that the two of us will fall in love with each other. Not now, and definitely not in the future.

Then, besides her question, what else do you have to say?”

Ji Fengmian frowned. After a moment of silence, she glanced at his wrist. “Let go.”
