Madam Xie's attitude took everyone by surprise.
Even the furious Xie Liangzhe froze for a few seconds.
Only Xie Jinny, head bowed low.
Pulled a cold smile in Wen Tingxue's embrace.
By the time Wen Tingxue realized Xie Jinny had stopped trembling, Xie Jinny had already straightened up.

With a blank expression, she took a step forward.
"I deliberately pushed Mi Shui'er, I deliberately killed that child."
She looked up, in the thick, suffocating atmosphere, and smiled gently.
"If you want to beat me to death, go ahead."
She spread her arms, looking up defiantly and desperately at Xie Liangzhe, who wished he could tear her to shreds.
She mocked, word by word:
"I've wanted to die for a long time, do you think I want to live?
"Do you think I want to be your child?
"If I had a chance to start over, I'd rather be an orphan than be born into the Xie family."
She was smiling, and every word she spoke was laced with sarcasm.

The wind swept through the corridor, lifting her hair that fell to her waist.
"Xie Liangzhe, why are you stunned? Surprised?
"That your obedient, never-disobedient daughter is actually a lunatic.
"Are you shocked, embarrassed? Hahaha, what's there to be surprised about.
"What I've become, isn't it all because you forced me?"
"What's so good about being your child? I didn't let him come into this world, I saved him.
"Otherwise, there would just be one more lunatic in this world!"
"Xie Jinny!"
Xie Liangzhe snapped out of his shock, and the clearest words he heard were 'I saved him.'
His rage flared up, and he raised his hand, yelling:

"You unfilial daughter! If you don't repent, you spew nonsense!
"I'll beat you to death today, to atone for your unborn brother!"
"Enough!"
Madam Xie finally rushed over, shielding Xie Jinny like a mother hen protecting her chick.
Her voice was sharp and aggressive.
"Yiyi is only seventeen, how could she have such cruel intentions.
"It must have been Mi Shui'er who deliberately provoked her! Who knows what she was planning.
"Or, perhaps, what she's carrying isn't yours, so she deliberately tried to set you up!"
"What nonsense are you talking! How could Shui'er..."
Instantly, Xie Liangzhe and Madam Xie were arguing fiercely.

Xie Jinny found it laughable.
This was the mother she had given her life to protect, always weighing pros and cons.
Always only caring about her own interests.
When Xie Liangzhe was strong, she pushed her out to take all the blame.
Then she maintained her good reputation, continuing to be Xie Liangzhe's gentle and sensible Mrs. Xie.
When she went mad, she would run out to protect her.
No.
Not to protect her.
But to protect her last trump card in the Xie family.
She treated her as a mother, but her mother treated her as a pawn.
Fighting for power and love.
Xie Jinny felt exhausted.
Truly exhausted.
So tired that she couldn't even be bothered to move a finger.
But she still pulled Wen Tingxue away.
In the corridor.
Xie Jinny sat down on the spot, her lifeless eyes looking up at Yu Wenli.
"Do you have a cigarette?"
She asked, her voice hoarse as if someone had stuffed sand into her throat.
Yu Wenli's brow furrowed slightly, and he took out a cigarette and a lighter from his pocket.
*Clack*—
The flame ignited.
Xie Jinny expertly lit the cigarette and exhaled.
Wen Tingxue was stunned.
Xie Jinny cupped her hand around the cigarette to shield it from her stray hair. In the dim light, her profile was stunningly beautiful.
A high nose bridge, half-closed eyes, thin wisps of smoke.
Everything seemed so textured.
Wen Tingxue almost felt like she was watching a movie.
"Mi Shui'er wasn't carrying a boy, it was a girl."
Xie Jinny exhaled a plume of smoke with a seductive gesture, her eyes narrowing slightly as she explained.

"Xie Liangzhe is concerned with appearances, he wouldn't divorce my mother easily.
"So, that child, when born, would only be an illegitimate daughter of ill repute.
"Given Xie Liangzhe's philandering nature, Mi Shui'er would be abandoned in less than two years.
"At that time, that child..."
Xie Jinny pursed her lips and raised her hand to take a drag, inhaling deeply.
Wen Tingxue wanted to stop her, but before she could act, Xie Jinny lowered her head, her voice light and hoarse.
Like wind blowing from afar.
"During break, Mi Shui'er deliberately provoked me, and I instinctively reached out..."
She paused, then turned her head, her eyes fixed on Wen Tingxue through the swirling smoke.
As if she had walked a long road, or experienced half a lifetime.

In short, that gaze was so deep that Wen Tingxue couldn't see through it.
In the silence, Xie Jinny said hoarsely, "Don't be afraid of me, okay?"
Her tone was pleading, with a humility that cut to the bone.
"I only have you... The only one who has treated me sincerely, from beginning to end, is you."
At some point, Xie Jinny's eyes misted over.
Even her voice trembled slightly.
She remained in the same pose, sitting on the steps, half-turned to look at her, still holding a half-smoked cigarette in her hand.
Wen Tingxue couldn't articulate her feelings at that moment.
She only felt Xie Jinny's loneliness and a desire to be with her.
So, she sat down beside her, put an arm around her shoulder, and said:

"I'm not afraid of you, don't smoke anymore, it's bad for your health."
"Okay."
Xie Jinny obediently stubbed out the cigarette on the floor.

After sending Xie Jinny home, Wen Tingxue still found it hard to accept everything that had happened that day.
Especially Xie Jinny's words and actions, which had deeply impacted her.
To the point that she didn't even know if she should continue to be friends with her.
She felt like she didn't quite recognize her, yet she could understand her actions.
After hearing her worries, Yu Wenli asked indifferently.
"At least she treated you well, didn't she?"
Yes.
Wen Tingxue pouted at him, "You always know what I want to hear."
Yu Wenli raised an eyebrow noncommittally.
On the way home, the conversation turned back to Xie Jinny.
The young girl kicked at the stones on the ground, her voice wistful.
"Today at the hospital, I kept thinking, if I have children in the future.
"I must give them a warm enough environment to grow up in.
"Otherwise, I absolutely won't. I don't want them to live a life of breakdown and oppression like Yiyi."
"Mhm," the young man beside her agreed, nodding. "Our child will be born into happiness."
He said it so naturally that Wen Tingxue subconsciously agreed, then her eyes widened, her cheeks flushing.

"What do you mean... you... That's too much!"
The young girl was flustered and incoherent, her raised eyes shining under the streetlights.
Yu Wenli leaned in, his presence full of possessiveness.
"What? Doesn't your future plan include your brother?"
"I..."
Wen Tingxue nervously shrank back her neck.
"Your brother's future plan has always included you," the young man stared at her intently.
The affection in his dark eyes was almost overflowing. "My little Yiyi, you're being immoral."
Wen Tingxue: "..."

Discussion group 563743675
The Xie family's affair was eventually left unresolved.
After all, no matter how angry Xie Liangzhe was, he couldn't do anything to his only daughter.
As for Mi Shui'er, it was said that after receiving some money, she was abandoned by Xie Liangzhe.
Qiao Xixi, who was well-informed, came for tutoring a few days ago and mentioned that Xie Liangzhe had a new face beside him.
She looked no older than twenty.
Wen Tingxue felt a wave of nausea.
After Xie Jinny completely fell out with Xie Liangzhe, her life wasn't going well.
But she was happier than before.
It was just that occasionally, when she thought of that child, she would wake up in the middle of the night.
June 1st.

In the past, Wen Tingxue wouldn't have cared about this day.
But now...
She held the four small boxes she had prepared for a long time and turned to go downstairs.
Qiao Xixi was waiting eagerly on the sofa. Hearing the movement, she quickly ran over and called out pitifully:
"Xuexue~"
Wen Tingxue's scalp tingled. "Just say it."
These past few days, Qiao Xixi had been pursuing Mu Chen very aggressively.
Every time she needed help, she would adopt this tone.
Qiao Xixi chuckled, her eyes crescent moons.
"I know today is their group's anniversary, take me with you.

"I promise not to cause trouble! Not to interfere!"
Qiao Xixi raised her hand to swear, but after a few seconds, she reverted to begging, "I just want to see him, I haven't seen him for twelve hours."
Black Hole Bar was opened by Chi Ye specifically for the band.
The backstage was where Yu Wenli wrote and composed.
It was not easy to get in.
Wen Tingxue couldn't resist Qiao Xixi's pleading, so she turned to Yu Wenli to put in a good word.
Then, she took Xu Ke Xin and Qiao Xixi with her.
Que You, who had been preparing for exams and hadn't appeared for a long time, was also there. The few of them greeted each other familiarly.
Because it was Children's Day, Yu Wenli and Xing Jiahe, following the trend, prepared small gifts for their loved ones.
Qiao Xixi's eyes twinkled as she jumped in front of Mu Chen, holding out her hands.

"Where's my gift?"
Mu Chen was used to her interruptions. He raised his eyelids and said, "Can I send you out?"
"Okay, so it's agreed, you'll send me out later."
Qiao Xixi deliberately misinterpreted his meaning, and sure enough, she saw him twitch his lips speechlessly.
He continued to look down at his phone.
Qiao Xixi reached out and covered his screen, her voice sweet and crisp.
"I won't let you give it for free, I've prepared a gift for you too, wait!"
Mu Chen looked at the bag of snacks she brought in from the door: "..."
Que You, looking enviously at the couples, kicked Chi Ze Rui, who was pretending to be asleep with his eyes closed.
"Where's your person? Why did you come alone? Did you fight?"

"We broke up."
Chi Ze Rui slouched on the sofa, his voice hoarse as if he had just woken up.
Que You was surprised, "Weren't you guys fine a few days ago?"
Chi Ze Rui casually replied, "We broke up yesterday."
Que You: "..."
Remembering the last time they broke up, the young girl's eyes were red and pitiful.
Que You couldn't help but kick him again, "Take it easy, be careful not to incur retribution."
"Tch."
Chi Ze Rui sneered and flipped his eyelids, "What retribution could there be?"
Que You: "You never know, you're so scummy.

"Can't get the one I love?" Chi Ze Rui seemed to hear a joke, and propped himself up to sit halfway. His open collar made him look even more nonchalant and dissolute. "With this face, will I not be able to get the one I love?" Que You scoffed, "Heh." Chi Ze Rui, with his competitive spirit, lit a cigarette and said, "If I really meet someone I can't get, I'll dye my hair white, bet?" Hmm... Xie Jinny is a beautiful lunatic...
