Chapter 17: Surrendering to Perfection and Seeking Reunion
The two of them walked around the mall until dark before returning to school carrying large and small bags.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they reached the downstairs of the dormitory, a black shadow suddenly appeared from the darkness on one side and rushed in front of the two of them, blocking the way.
"Ah——"
Gu Lianxing screamed, and Shen Ci was also startled. But when she saw the person in front of her clearly, her expression suddenly darkened, and her eyes filled with impatience.
Li Xiao's face was gloomy, and his eyes were filled with coldness as he stared at Shen Ci.
"Li Xiao?" Recognizing it was Li Xiao, Gu Lianxing said angrily: "Are you sick? Who are you trying to scare to death by blocking the entrance to the girls' dormitory at night?"
But Li Xiao turned a deaf ear to Gu Lianxing's angry rebuke, and instead looked at Shen Ci's angry question: "Why are you moving to a dormitory? Avoid me?"
Shen Ci couldn't help but sneered subconsciously, which made Li Xiao's eyes turn colder.
"A carnival for other boys? You're still in the same dormitory as me. Did you do it on purpose?"
There was an obvious aura of depression surrounding his body, and he could feel that he was trying his best to restrain himself, but judging from the tone of his words, he was obviously on the verge of losing control.
Shen Ci raised her eyebrows slightly, and looked at him with no concealment of disgust in her eyes: "Li Xiao, we are over. Nothing I do has anything to do with you, and it is not your turn to question me here!"< br>
"I don't agree!" Li Xiao yelled with scarlet eyes, and his eyes became moist. He looked at Shen Ci with an unwilling face and shook his head: "I don't know what I did wrong, or my mother told you. What! I only know that I like you and I don’t agree to break up with you.”
As he said that, he seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and suddenly stretched out his hand to clasp Shen Ci's slender shoulders, and said, "You have someone else, right? Otherwise, how could you be willing to do the carnival for others?"
< br>
"Why don't you want me to transfer money to you, but you are willing to ask for other people's money? Other people's money is more valuable than mine? It is easier to spend than my money?"
"Just ask for as much as you want, and I can give it to you, as much as you want!"
"But don't break up with me. Make it clear to that person that I don't mind. I really don't mind!"
At this point, Li Xiao actually shed all his arrogance, his voice was choked with sobs, and his whole person was even humbled to the dust. Even Gu Lianxing, who wanted to speak out to dissuade him, was moved by him and looked at Shen Ciyu. He hesitated and wanted to say something to Li Xiao.
Only Shen Ci was completely indifferent to Li Xiao's affection. She just looked at him quietly because she had never seen Li Xiao show such a side.
As if fragile and vulnerable to a blow, who wouldn't be heartbroken and moved by seeing it if they weren't hard-hearted?
But Shen Ci only felt that Li Xiao was extremely fragmented at this time.
Because the face that came to her mind was the one sitting coldly in the back seat of the luxury car. She cried and picked at the window frame for an explanation, but she didn't get an apologetic look back from him.
Until the car window slowly rolled up, he clamped her fingers in the crack of the window and dragged her for several meters, and finally fell to the side of the road in a panic.
She can still remember the pungent smell of the car's exhaust hitting her cheeks as it drove away.
But looking at Li Xiao's affectionate face at this moment, Shen Ci just wanted to tear his hypocritical face to pieces.
She pushed away Li Xiao's arms that were embedded in her shoulders, and still said calmly: "I said, we are over."
The light that was originally burning in Li Xiao's eyes was completely extinguished visibly after Shen Ci said these words coldly.
His face was ashen and he looked at Shen Ci with despair: "Why? Why do you do this to me?"
He thought that as long as he lowered his posture and compromised, Shen Ci would change his mind. But he was already humble. He had never been so humble to anyone in his whole life. Why was she not moved at all?
Gu Lianxing's pretty face twisted into a ball of anxiety.
But Shen Ci obviously didn't want to waste any more words, so she walked sideways around Li Xiao and quickly entered the dormitory building.
Gu Lianxing looked at Li Xiao's devastated look and felt pity for him.
Even if he really has some defects in that area, he can still get treatment. After all, men's medical treatment is so complete now, and this is not a terminal disease that cannot be saved.
He really is not guilty enough to die.
"Li Xiao, calm down first." Gu Lianxing comforted softly: "Although I don't know what happened between you and Shen Ci, I think Shen Ci is definitely not an unreasonable person. You just said that she has someone else. You Is there any evidence? If not, it’s slander and slander! How can you ask for reconciliation?”
Li Xiao turned his head and looked at Gu Lianxing. His heart, which was originally in chaos, actually regained some of its sanity because of these words.
"Did I say the wrong thing?" He murmured.
Gu Lianxing sighed: "Don't say anything without factual basis. Even if you have doubts in your heart, you should clarify the matter before drawing a conclusion."
Thinking of the fact that Shen Ci was ridiculed by several former roommates in the small restaurant today, and they basically attacked her by saying that Li Xiao no longer wanted her, Gu Lianxing still felt that she had to clarify for Shen Ci: "She didn't move the dormitory to avoid you, she did. Because several of her previous roommates ganged up to bully her.”
Li Xiao was stunned when he heard this. He didn't know about this.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"She...she never told me these things."
Gu Lianxing shook her head helplessly: "If you have a good relationship with your roommate, how can you not mention the things between you and your roommate at all?"
Li Xiao was brought in by Gu Lianxing's words, and lowered his head with an expression of distress and self-blame.
It was because he didn't care enough about Shen Ci that he didn't even know that she was being bullied.
"Go back first and calm down for a while. Don't be so impulsive next time."
Gu Lianxing said that, bypassing him and entering the dormitory building.
Back in the dormitory, Shen Ci was packing her things. The dormitory had been cleaned by several school girls.
"Wow, so clean!"
Gu Lianxing deliberately made an exaggerated reaction, walked to Shen Ci with a smile and said: "Shen Ci, fortunately, I have you. If I moved in first, I don't know what to do."
Shen Ci smiled, as if he was not affected by what Li Xiao had just said: "Hurry up and make the bed, pack your things, and then take the time to take a shower and go to bed, otherwise the lights will be turned off soon."
Seeing that she was in fair condition, Gu Lianxing relaxed a little.
But she didn't say anything more. Although she had just witnessed the whole process with her own eyes, she really wanted to say a few words to Li Xiao because she could feel that Li Xiao really liked Shen Ci, but she still held back. Didn't say.
She and Li Xiao have known each other since childhood. Although they are not close friends, they have known each other for a long time, and she can give some kind opinions.
But Shen Ci was different. Although they felt like old friends at first sight, they had just met after all. She had to maintain a sense of propriety and not interfere too much in Shen Ci's personal affairs.
