She had run over and grabbed Zuo Yiyi by the arm. “Where’s Si Zhengting? Where is he?”

Zuo Yiyi had raised her eyebrows disdainfully and reached out to push away Zhuang Nainai. “Let go of me! You’re hurting me.”

Zhuang Nainai had refused to let go. It had been her last chance to get in touch with Si Zhengting.

Seeing that she wasn’t about to let go, Zuo Yiyi had given a cold laugh. “Zhuang Nainai, do you still not understand?”

Zhuang Nainai had looked at her, utterly confused. Taking care of her mother and Si Zhengting’s silence had already made her close to breaking down. “Understand what?”

“Brother Ting never really wanted to get together with you! Also, how many relationships from high school actually last? He was just interested in you in the heat of the moment. With a family like his, how could he possibly get together with you?”

Zhuang Nainai had bit her lips. “I don’t believe a word you say! We made an agreement to go to the same university!”

“Go to the same university? Are you kidding me? Brother Ting has his life set out for him even before he was born, so how is it possible that you’re going to the same university as him? He’s definitely going overseas! For families like us, going to university is a waste of time. I’ve told you before that our worlds are just too different, but you just refused to listen. Do you believe me now? Let me tell you once and for all, Brother Ting doesn’t want you, and he’s going overseas...”

He’s going overseas, he doesn’t want you...

Like a chant, Zuo Yiyi’s words had rung in Zhuang Nainai’s ears over and over again. Her eyes now blank, she had taken a few steps back, shaking her head. “I don’t believe you, Zuo Yiyi. You’re lying to me again, right?”

Zuo Yiyi had furrowed her brows. “You don’t believe me? Brother Ting handed up his college application form a long time ago! Why would I lie to you?”

He had handed up the college application form a long time ago?

He had handed up the college application form a long time ago?!

Zhuang Nainai had been stunned but had then quickly reacted. “Isn’t he going overseas? Why would he need to hand in his college application form then?”

Zuo Yiyi had looked at her as if she was looking at a joke. With pity and coldness at the tip of her lips, she had said, “Forget it, I can’t explain it to you well enough. I’m going to look for a teacher, so I’m not going to waste more time with you here.”

She had wanted to leave, but Zhuang Nainai had been just as adamant in stopping her. Zhuang Nainai had taken a step forward, making an attempt to grab Zuo Yiyi’s arm. “Zuo Yiyi, make yourself clear. Where exactly is he?!”

Zuo Yiyi had taken a step back and allowed a bodyguard to grab hold of Zhuang Nainai’s arm. With a hard shove, Zhuang Nainai had stumbled backward and fallen onto the ground.

Zuo Yiyi had looked at her and furrowed her brows once more. “I said, stop following me! There’s no use in following me. I don’t know where Brother Ting is either. He hasn’t appeared for a few days already, and he’s probably overseas by now!”

Probably overseas by now...!

Zhuang Nainai had felt as if her world had collapsed, the heavens and the earth falling in on themselves.

Watching Zuo Yiyi enter the school, she had bitten her lips. Without thinking, she had run to the teaching block. Finding the gate to the teaching block closed, she had then made a round and climbed up to her form teacher’s office on the second floor. She then climbed in through the window, and, with trembling hands, had flipped through all the college application forms... and had finally gotten to his.

There had been nothing on his application form except his name.

All these memories came back to her like a flood, drowning her. The slightest thought of this memory brought back all the hopelessness she had felt at that point in time.
