What else could Tong Wen say in such a situation?
She could only say in a ingratiating manner, "I’m too tired, so I came here for some peace and quiet. Please don’t misunderstand."
Yun Si smiled faintly. "I haven’t misunderstood. If you had ulterior motives, you wouldn’t stay so close to me. Well, I just missed you and wanted to see you."
You’ve seen enough, now please go.
In Tong Wen’s eyes, Yun Si had now become both a devil and a beast, terrifying in every way imaginable.
She had to figure out a way to leave him.
Though she couldn’t think of any method at the moment, she couldn’t compromise.
In the following days, Tong Wen continued to live miserably, but the injuries on her face slowly healed.
She hurriedly pleaded with Yun Si, "I need to go to school now, and Meng Chuyue’s place probably has new fruits in stock. I have a two-hundred-pounds discount, and I can bring it over to you tonight."
Tong Wen didn’t dare to speak recklessly in front of Yun Si. She had just called Zhao Xiaoxin to confirm this matter.
Yun Si nodded. "Alright, go. I won’t bother you during the day, but remember to come back obediently at night, otherwise, I’ll break your legs. Also, the day after tomorrow, I’ll take you to Medicinal Food Hall for a meal. If Shen Ci and Meng Chuyue are there, make sure you introduce me properly."
Tong Wen hesitated for a moment and then responded quietly, "..."
Seeing her reluctance, Yun Si pinched her chin with a malicious look in his eyes. "What’s the matter? Unwilling? Don’t want them to know about our relationship? Afraid they’ll look down on me and embarrass you?"
Tong Wen was almost scared out of her wits.
She feared Yun Si would hit her again.
She trembled and shook her head. "No, it’s just a bit sudden."
Yun Si let go of her, satisfied, and said with a faint smile, "Tong Wen, I know you’re ambitious and that you must have calculated something to get involved with me. Whatever it is, I don’t want to pursue it. But since you’re on my boat, just remember to listen to me obediently. Otherwise, the reputation of ’King of Hell’ isn’t just for show."
Tong Wen wanted to cry and was inwardly miserable, but she could only smile weakly. "I won’t, I won’t. It’s my good fortune to be with you, and I’ll cherish it."
Yun Si chuckled. "Sweet-talker, it seems. But why does Meng Chuyue like Xia Ping more than you? Have you thought about the reason?"
He had collected a lot of information about Meng Chuyue and Shen Ci these days.
He also knew Tong Wen’s relationship with Meng Chuyue quite clearly; she could be considered Meng Chuyue’s friend, but the most distant one.
It wasn’t because Meng Chuyue despised the poor and loved the rich, but because Tong Wen herself was somewhat weak.
Frankly speaking, Yun Si was a bit disappointed in this invigorated Tong Wen.
But since other people weren’t available, he would have to make do.
Finally, Tong Wen could go to school again.
However, her mood was different.
There was always a sense of guilt, worried that others would find out about her recent disgrace and shame.
Thankfully, everything appeared unchanged.
A few classmates who usually got along well with her were still friendly.
Meng Chuyue didn’t ignore her either and greeted her as usual.
So, it was just her own nervousness.
Tong Wen quickly relaxed.
In the afternoon, she went to Medicinal Food Hall and didn’t encounter Shen Ci and Meng Chuyue who apparently hadn’t returned home yet.
She breathed a sigh of relief.
Truthfully, she was afraid of meeting Meng Chuyue.
After buying two hundred pounds of quality fruits at a discount from Zhao Xiaoxin, she sat alone in a room at Medicinal Food Hall, trying to kill time.
She didn’t want to go back to face Yun Si so early; she wanted to delay it.
She didn’t expect that Shen Ci and Meng Chuyue never came back, yet Xia Ping and Song Enshu happened to show up.
Seeing Xia Ping and Song Enshu made her feel extremely ironic.
She always thought of herself, Meng Chuyue, and Xia Ping as a solid trio.
