Chapter 252 "I like you"
The roommate is still telling Ji Yuqiao the information she has learned, such as seeing Wen Li going to the library to read with other boys, and working at Xiao Yu The classmates who work in the office heard with their own ears that they had broken up...
"All kinds of rumors are spreading wildly in the school, and I think nine times out of ten they are true."
" You've been looking forward to it for so long, haven't you been waiting for the two of them to break up? Now your chance has come!"
"I have found out for you that Xiao Yu and his other professional teachers have invited him to come back to school to start a class! I’m going to give a small lecture to the juniors about entrepreneurship, and you can sneak in when the time comes..." The roommate kept talking to Ji Yuqiao.
"No need, I'm no longer interested in him." Ji Yuqiao's voice was calm.
The words that had not been finished in the roommate's throat stopped abruptly, "Wha...what?"
"I said that I don't like him anymore, and you don't need to tell me anything about him in the future. Yes." Ji Yuqiao said.
The roommate was stunned: "Huh? Don't like it anymore? Why..."
Ji Yuqiao interrupted her, "The teacher is here, listen to the class carefully."
< br>
The roommate glanced at the serious teacher on the podium and had no choice but to shut his mouth and give up the idea of continuing to gossip.
First there were two English classes, and then two advanced mathematics classes. Many students in the classroom were already distracted. Some were sleeping, some were playing with their mobile phones...
Youya yawned, and just when she was about to lie down and sleep, she glanced at Ji Yuqiao who was listening carefully to the class and was stunned for a moment.
Suddenly there was a feeling that Ji Yuqiao had changed.
In the past, in class, Ji Yuqiao either asked them about Xiao Yu, or kept sending messages to Xiao Yu on her mobile phone. Sometimes she would skip class and go to the place where Xiao Yu worked part-time to see him.
But now, these behaviors have disappeared.
She became like a good student, thinking only about studying.
Seeing Ji Yuqiao lowering her head and taking notes, her roommate straightened up again from where he had just been lying down. He couldn't help but pick up the pen and take notes along with her.
An hour passed and the bell rang.
The roommate stretched. He hadn’t studied so hard for a long time. He didn’t expect to be so tired. “Yu Qiao, let’s go back to the dormitory together.”
"I'm sorry, I will go back to live at home, not in the dormitory." After Ji Yuqiao packed up his stationery, he left the classroom with his small schoolbag on his back.
As she walked towards the school gate, she lowered her head and sent Lin Xu a message ready to go home.
As soon as she looked up, she saw Xiao Yu at the fork in the road, who was also walking towards the school gate.
Looking at each other, both of them were stunned for a moment.
Ji Yuqiao remembered that her roommate said that the teacher invited Xiao Yu back to school to give a small lecture, so it was not surprising to meet him in school.
She withdrew her gaze and continued walking out with an indifferent expression.
Xiao Yu opened his mouth, but still called her, "Ji...Yu Qiao..."
Ji Yuqiao's steps did not stop.
Xiao Yu chased after him, with a hint of hesitation on his face, "Can you wait for me? I have something to tell you."
Ji Yuqiao stopped and looked at him silently. say.
"I have distracted myself from many things before, and I have done many wrong things to you. I'm sorry..." Xiao Yu took out a document from his bag and handed it to her, "I don't know what I say is useless, this project is just Consider it my compensation."
Ji Yuqiao didn't accept it and said coldly: "No need."
Ji Tingyang will negotiate the project himself, so he doesn't need his charity. compensation.
"You, take it." Xiao Yu stretched out the document in his hand again.
"What on earth do you want to do?" Ji Yuqiao was upset and waved his hand away, and the document fell to the ground. The surrounding air suddenly became quiet.
What broke the freeze was Ji Yuqiao's cell phone ringtone.
She lowered her eyes and glanced at the caller ID. It was Zhao Jiayan calling.
Xiao Yu also saw it.
Recalling how she and Zhao Jiayan were so skillful before, her chest suddenly hurt, as if being pricked by a needle.
When he saw her answering the phone, Xiao Yu subconsciously held her wrist.
Ji Yuqiao was startled for a moment and looked at him in astonishment.
Xiao Yu's thoughts returned, and there was a bit of panic in his brows. However, his hand still held her hand and did not let go.
Ji Yuqiao frowned in displeasure, "You..."
"I like you."
Xiao Yu's confession was caught off guard.
As soon as these words came out, the surroundings seemed to fall into a deathly silence, and the ringing of mobile phones also stopped.
Ji Yuqiao's pupils shrank, and it took him a while to come back to his senses, "You, you..."
After saying these words, Xiao Yu seemed to be relieved, and there was a smile in his eyes. All the panic and hesitation receded, and his expression was extremely firm, "I'm not joking, I'm serious."
Ji Yuqiao's shocked mood gradually returned to calm, and her eyes looked at him with a hint of complexity.
How ridiculous.
She liked him so much before, and he avoided her.
She has been in pain for a long time, and she almost bankrupted her eldest brother's company because of this. Now she finally let go, but he told her that he liked her.
Ji Yuqiao twitched the corners of his lips, revealing a hint of sarcasm, "So?"
"What?"
"You like me, so what?" Ji Yuqiao's tone was sarcastic, "You're not still waiting for me to express my gratitude to you, thank you for confessing to me and being with you, right?"
" I don't mean anything, I just want to tell you what I feel." Xiao Yu explained hurriedly, "I know that what I did before has disappointed you, and I will..."
"It's not that I'm disappointed. Disgusting." Ji Yuqiao corrected his choice of words.
Xiao Yu's body froze, and his face suddenly became a little ugly, "I, I will try my best to make up for it in the future until you forgive me."
"Just give up, I will never I won't forgive you either. Just like you told me before, you said you wouldn't like me even if the human race became extinct. The same goes for me. Even if the human race becomes extinct, I won't like you." Ji Yuqiao finished speaking. Turned and left expressionlessly.
Xiao Yu's fingertips trembled slightly, and there was a bitter taste in his heart, which kept surging in his chest. No matter how hard he tried, he could not suppress the bitterness.
Inexplicable.
He suddenly resented his former self, why he did something to hurt Ji Yuqiao and why he said "I will never like you".
If he had not done this at that time, would the result be different now?
Xiao Yu moved his feet, wanting to catch up and save her, but his legs seemed to be frozen and he couldn't move.
Until Ji Yuqiao's figure disappeared from his eyes, he tugged at the corner of his lips and smiled with a bit of self-deprecation.
He swallowed the bitterness and pain that was about to overflow from his throat back into his stomach, and the steps under his feet seemed to become heavier.
