She stood there, the two streaks of tears still on her face, and asked confusedly, "Shen Yuan, are you with other women too?"
"Not really, it depends on the person and my mood at the time."
Shen Yuan sat silently on the sofa. He had just finished a 40-minute dance class for Xing Dong's revenge, and inevitably, some personal emotions had crept in.
Peang Yayun said with a bitter smile, "So, I'm probably not the kind of person you can be gentle with." Find the newest release on novel✦fire.net
Shen Yuan smiled and said nothing, but Peang Yayun had her answer: "I understand. I'll work hard on my dance, goodbye."
"Mhm, be careful on the road."
Shen Yuan watched her leave. He thought about asking Fu Yingzi to take her back but then he figured she already had three backup guys, so why should he bother? Let Xing Dong take her back instead.
After leaving the office, Peang Yayun leaned on the wall and tried to walk a few steps but she soon realized she couldn't make it to the school gate , so she took out her phone to call a Didi.
"Calling a Didi might as well have Xing Dong come over; he's not far anyway. After he sends me back this time, I'll cut ties completely. Shen Yuan might say he doesn't care, but which man doesn't have a little possessiveness in him," Peang Yayun thought to herself.
Xing Dong received the message from his goddess and immediately rushed over with excitement; opportunities to serve his goddess were rare and this could score him some good impression points!
15 minutes later he arrived at the designated spot, hurried out of the car, and opened the passenger door for her.
However, Peang Yayun waved him off and got into the back seat.
Xing Dong didn't say anything. Seeing her wobble while walking, he thought she had sprained her ankle and didn't want to sit in the front seat, having to buckle the seatbelt.
But when Xing Dong saw Peang Yayun's professional attire, he felt it was odd. Why would she come to school in her office lady outfit, which usually goes with black stockings?
Black stockings? Did she forget to wear them?
Thinking she might be hot, Xing Dong turned the air conditioning temperature down to 23 degrees.
However, after a while, Peang Yayun spoke, "Xing Dong, can you turn up the air conditioning temperature a bit?"
He reached out to turn up the temperature, puzzled. It wasn't because she was hot.
"Yayun, what did you come to school for today?"
Hearing him still call her Yayun made Peang Yayun feel a bit annoyed, but considering this might be his last day addressing her like that, she let it go.
She hummed a response, "Just some official matters."
Xing Dong didn't quite understand, "What official business do you have after graduation? By the way, are you sure you don't need to go to the hospital to check on your foot?"
"It's not necessary."
Peang Yayun struggled to suppress the urge to roll her eyes; Xing Dong still thought she had twisted her ankle when in fact it was because Shen Yuan had been too forceful just now.
If he had been more attentive, he would have noticed the swelling on her knee.
Xing Dong would never think in that direction; this was his goddess after all, a noble white lotus. He was getting very close to winning her over.
Back in the office, Shen Yuan was planning to ask Qiao Lei and Long Jinghan to have dinner together that evening.
Just as he was about to message them both, he received a WeChat from Qiao Lei.
Qiao Lei: "Senior, big trouble!"
Qiao Lei: "Sister Jinghan has been placed under house arrest by her family!"
Qiao Lei: "Her parents won't let her return to school, saying they'll disown her if she does!"
Shen Yuan: "Come to the office."
Leaning on the sofa, Shen Yuan carefully recalled his impression of Long Jinghan, who always seemed to be a people-pleaser. Sometimes he felt like she was too hard on herself.
Even her XP tendencies were people-pleasing types, like the "masochistic excitement type."
Thinking about it now, it might be related to her original family issues, emotional neglect, poor family relationships, parental disputes, a lack of recognition—these could all lead to personality defects.
