"I didn't make her angry."
Wei Qingyu was expressionless, enduring the dull pain in her heart as she explained seriously.
Lu Xing glanced at Xia Yeshuang out of the corner of his eye.
He didn't believe it!
These two psychos had to make things clear today, or else he wouldn't be able to live his life in the future!
According to Xia Yeshuang's tsundere personality, she definitely wouldn't be willing to state the reason.
Whatever. Lu Xing had read the Thirty-Six Stratagems. So he asked.
"Then why does Sister Xia hate you?"
"I don't believe Sister Xia would hate a person just because of some rumors in school. She's not that superficial."
This is about me too?
She was about to see how Lu Xing would break Wei Qingyu's defenses. How did the fire spread to her?
Facing Lu Xing's admiring and expectant gaze, Xia Yeshuang unconsciously straightened her back and gave him a sideways glance.
"Like I need you to tell me!"
Lu Xing made a peace sign in his heart. He had guessed right!
Xia Yeshuang really did hate Wei Qingyu for another reason.
So what was the reason?
Lu Xing looked at Wei Qingyu with some eagerness, hoping that this top student's amazing memory could quickly recall it.
Wei Qingyu shook her head. "I don't know."
Wei Qingyu looked at Xia Yeshuang seriously and said word for word.
"I have no memory of provoking you."
"If you still remember, please tell me, and I will apologize to you."
She didn't care who was right or wrong.
If this was what Lu Xing wanted, then she was willing to apologize to Xia Yeshuang. This update ıs available on NoveI[F]ire.net
Xia Yeshuang felt even more aggrieved.
Especially seeing Wei Qingyu's calm and composed look, it was as if she were the only one secretly holding a grudge!
Xia Yeshuang, furious, blurted it all out.
"From the time you were three years old, I attended every single one of your birthday parties. My dad made me go talk to you, and you ignored me eight times! A full eight times!"
For a tsundere to lower her pride to proactively make friends with someone, and to do it eight times...
This was simply more terrifying than Mars hitting the Earth.
What was even more terrifying was that, all eight times, Wei Qingyu had completely ignored her.
Every time Xia Yeshuang was ignored, she would be driven mad with anger, but she still had to be forced by her father to go and talk to Wei Qingyu.
If she didn't, she would be punished.
How could she not hate Wei Qingyu?!
It was only in recent years that her family's business had developed, and she no longer had to be forced to be around Wei Qingyu.
Xia Yeshuang felt that in her countless midnight dreams, it would always be Wei Qingyu's calm and indifferent gaze!
Lu Xing was dumbfounded.
Just for this stupid reason, Xia Yeshuang had targeted Wei Qingyu for so long?
You people are really interesting.
Hearing this, Wei Qingyu was a little dazed, as if she were trying to recall, but she couldn't remember.
There was no helping it.
Too many people wanted to curry favor with her. She simply couldn't remember.
Wei Qingyu was silent for a moment, then still said, "I'm sorry. I apologize to you. But at that time, I wasn't ignoring you."
Xia Yeshuang laughed with anger when she heard this explanation.
"I was introducing myself over and over, and you didn't say a single word, just walked away. You're telling me that's not called ignoring?"
Lu Xing frowned, suddenly feeling that something was wrong.
So he subconsciously wanted to stop Xia Yeshuang from asking further.
Wei Qingyu saw Lu Xing's action. A trace of pain flashed in her calm eyes. After struggling for a moment, she still said truthfully.
"At that time, I had severe autistic tendencies, and I also had communication barriers."
"I wanted to speak, but I couldn't."
All the unpleasant truths came out.
Wei Qingyu's gaze was fixed on the ground, a little dazed, yet she still took the blame on herself.
"I'm sorry. I caused you harm. It's my fault."
The entire piano room fell into silence.
The anger on Xia Yeshuang's face had not yet disappeared, but her expression had already frozen.
She hadn't expected this to be the answer.
How glorious was Wei Qingyu at that time? Her parents loved her, gave her the most luxurious birthday parties, and everyone gathered around her to praise her.
A person so adored by everyone, could she also be sick? Could she also be unhappy?
Since she was sick, how could her parents have let her out?
Xia Yeshuang was just about to retort, then suddenly fell silent.
Outside, everyone thought she was deeply loved by her parents, a young lady from a wealthy family. But wasn't she still forced to please Wei Qingyu?
Only the one who drinks the water knows if it's hot or cold.
If you haven't walked in another's shoes, you'll never know if they fit.
All the mockery Xia Yeshuang was about to blurt out was swallowed back down.
She wanted to laugh, but she couldn't laugh at all.
She hated Wei Qingyu.
She hated Wei Qingyu's superior family background, hated that Wei Qingyu could have her parents' love, and hated Wei Qingyu's coldness and ruthlessness in rejecting others.
Wei Qingyu had personally told her that it wasn't like that.
Everything was just her imagination.
Her various interpretations and misreadings of Wei Qingyu did not constitute one ten-thousandth of Wei Qingyu, but it was a clear view of Xia Yeshuang.
After sending Wei Qingyu off, the piano room was silent.
Xia Yeshuang felt as if her soul had been taken away.
She suddenly found that her years of persistent hatred had lost all meaning.
Why did she hate a sick person?
Helping Xia Yeshuang sit down, Lu Xing smoothly poured her a glass of water.
Xia Yeshuang looked up at Lu Xing's eyes and said in a panic.
Lu Xing gently stroked her little golden head and, after a moment of silence, said.
"It seems you don't hate Wei Qingyu anymore."
Under Lu Xing's comfort, Xia Yeshuang found a trace of solace.
Like a small animal, she unconsciously rubbed her little head against Lu Xing's palm.
Lu Xing was like the sea, able to absorb all the storms and tempests.
Xia Yeshuang's panicked emotions from just now were gently kneaded away by Lu Xing, and her heart gradually calmed down.
Thinking back carefully.
Although she had chosen to sign the contract with Lu Xing to piss off Wei Qingyu, after spending more time with him recently, it seemed she hadn't spent much time on hating Wei Qingyu.
She felt that she should be grateful to Wei Qingyu. If it weren't for Wei Qingyu, she wouldn't have put her attention on Lu Xing.
Compared to hate, she preferred the feeling of being immersed in his care.
She should be grateful to Wei Qingyu.
Xia Yeshuang closed her eyes, gently rested her little head on Lu Xing's waist, and said in a low voice.
"I don't hate her anymore."
This is good for us. It's good to always be .
Lu Xing stood straight like a poplar tree, allowing Xia Yeshuang to lean on him.
He looked down at Xia Yeshuang's immersed expression and suddenly became alert.
Since Xia Yeshuang no longer hated Wei Qingyu, then the starting point of this contract was no longer valid. So Lu Xing mechanically stroked the top of Xia Yeshuang's hair and asked gently.
"Then does our contract need to be terminated?"
Xia Yeshuang opened her eyes in astonishment.
