The corners of Chi Shuyan’s mouth pulled up and she said calmly, “If you’re done, let go.”
Gao Lingxue’s eyes widened in disbelief. What sort of reaction was this? As if afraid that Chi Shuyan had forgotten, she pulled out the photos from the envelope and showed them to her.
However, Chi Shuyan had long anticipated what kind of photos they were, and her expression didn’t waver in the slightest. “Send them if you want.” In any case, it would at most be labeled puppy love, although she didn’t really want her father to know.
Gao Lingxue was stunned for a moment, then suddenly ripped the photos apart fiercely and slapped herself twice. “Shuyan, I, I, it’s your cousin’s fault. I shouldn’t have threatened you. I’m not human at all!”
Gao Lingxue covered her face and wiped her tears with a guilty look. She burst into tears and pleaded in a sobbing tone that was unlike her previous high and mighty self, “I have no choice either. Cousin, I know my mistake. I shouldn’t have bullied you and taken it out on you like that. I also regretted it when I complained last time, but I just wanted to save face, and suffered for it. You don’t know how guilty I felt. I don’t want to give these photos to Fourth Uncle at all. I just want to get your attention, to apologize to you and reconcile with you. In the end, because of my stupid mouth, I didn’t know what to say. Instead, I messed up the whole thing.”
Chi Shuyan was stumped for a moment, but before she could react, Gao Lingxue hugged her and continued to sob, “You don’t know how much I envy you. Although your parents are divorced, Fourth Uncle dotes on you alone. But for me, my parents only care about my brothers. Why are our fates so different? I’ve always been jealous of you, but now I finally understand.” She let out a long sigh as if she was relieved.
Chi Shuyan’s body was somewhat stiff, and a large area of her back felt wet. She wanted to push Gao Lingxue away, but was hugged tightly instead.
Gao Lingxue only let go after she wept for a long time. She wiped her tears with her sleeve, put her hands behind her back, bit her lip, and bowed apologetically. “Cousin, I’m sorry, really sorry. In the future… I’ll never bother you again, and I’ll also persuade my parents not to bother your family again.” Covering her tear-stained face, she turned around and ran away in extreme shame.
Chi Shuyan was stupefied and looked at Gao Lingxue’s back with mixed feelings. Was this person crazy? She was crying and laughing at the same time. She had already failed the college entrance exam, yet she was still so slick. She had really been scared when Gao Lingxue suddenly pounced on her and hugged her. If Gao Lingxue had been a man, Chi Shuyan would have thought she was taking advantage of her.
Chi Shuyan looked at her back and narrowed her eyes. If Gao Lingxue could repent early and not take the same route from her past life, Chi Shuyan could still give her a chance and spare her in this life. However, her eyes turned cold. She hoped that was the case. It all depended on what path Gao Lingxue chose.
Gao Lingxue turned her head and ran. It wasn’t easy for her to run far away. She covered her face and her shoulders shook repeatedly. A passerby thought that the girl was crying and just wanted to comfort her. Who would have thought that as soon as he walked over, he would be frightened by the girl’s poisonous eyes and crazy, twisted smile.
“What are you looking at? Scram!” Gao Lingxue glared at the man; the tears from earlier were nowhere to be seen. She couldn’t help but grin broadly as she looked at the three strands of hair which she had plucked off Chi Shuyan’s clothes. Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but be oblivious. Gao Lingxue thought she was really too smart. Her expression was poisonous, vicious and greedy. She composed herself before she apprehensively made a phone call. Hearing that the other party had already transferred 300,000 yuan to her card, Gao Lingxue was overjoyed and laughed wildly in delight.
