I rejected your confession, but you took my best friend home?

Chapter 235 So, someone who can't reach the grapes says they're sour?

Yu Lingxue continued to sob silently; the pressure she was under was simply too great.

This pent-up frustration erupted completely in that instant, and she couldn't stop crying...

A moment later, a hand patted her shoulder. Startled, she trembled slightly, abruptly raising her head to look to the side.

He noticed Tang Zhi squatting beside him, while Bai Cang was squatting on his other side...

Yu Lingxue had no idea when the two of them arrived...

They actually saw me looking like this, all tearful and pitiful...

Yu Lingxue quickly wiped away her tears and stammered:

"You...how did you know...I was here..."

Tang Zhi didn't answer, but instead gave her a thumbs up and whispered:

"You've already tried your best, you're great."

Even Bai Cang looked up at the sky, sighed, and said, "I will look at you with more respect in the future, Yu Lingxue."

"you..."

"Alright, you two keep me company and have a couple more drinks. Let's go."

Tang Zhi reached out and pulled Yu Lingxue, who was squatting on the ground, up.

"Was what I did... right?"

Yu Lingxue asked softly, feeling somewhat lost and unsure of what to do.

I've completely offended my father now, and he probably won't be able to take care of me for a while...

Her future is also bleak; she can't see the road ahead at all.

Tang Zhi shook her head and said, "We'll know whether it's right or wrong later, but at least you did what you felt in your heart, so don't regret it."

"Yeah...I know."

The three returned to the hotel. It was already past nine o'clock; the class reunion had ended, and the classmates were gradually going home.

The three of them then began their drinking session in a small private room.

After having a few drinks, Yu Lingxue opened up and told everyone about her difficulties.

Tang Zhi and Bai Cang had already guessed it, so they weren't too surprised when she revealed the truth...

They admired Yu Lingxue for pulling back from the brink in time; she chose to give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Tang Zhi knew Zhou Heng's character well. He was a responsible man; firstly, he certainly wouldn't develop any feelings for Yu Lingxue, but he was also definitely not the type to abandon someone after the fact.

However, his relationship with Yin Mengran is over. He will not hide it and will tell Yin Mengran everything. Then he will have no face to face Yin Mengran anymore... So he will definitely secretly resent Yu Lingxue in his heart.

At least Tang Zhi felt that Yu Lingxue did the right thing, preventing Zhou Heng from falling into that situation, and so far there has been no harm done.

"Alright, alright, stop shaking it. I've already seen it. Yin Mengran gave it to you. It's so nice. I'm really envious, okay!"

Bai Cang said irritably, giving Yu Lingxue a sidelong glance.

From the moment Yu Lingxue started drinking, whether clinking glasses or raising her glass, she had been holding her phone with that plush toy hanging from its case, and she'd been dangling it in front of Bai Cang all night...

"Oh...you noticed. I wasn't planning to bring it up, but since you did, I'll tell you. This was made by hand, just like mine."

Yu Lingxue picked up the doll and waved it in front of Bai Cang, her eyes and expression full of smugness.

Bai Cang picked up his wine glass, covered his mouth, and muttered softly:

"No wonder you're so ugly..."

"hold head high?!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Lingxue slammed her hand on the table and stood up, glaring angrily at Bai Cang as if she wanted to tear him to pieces.

Bai Cang, seemingly unconcerned, leaned back in his chair, pouted, and said:

"If it were made like mine, it would definitely look much better than yours. The other person did a great job. It's a pity the original model doesn't work."

"Ugh—where did that vinegar smell come from? It's awful. Don't let it bother my doll. Is someone just saying it's sour grapes because they can't have it? Tsk tsk tsk, I don't even want to talk about it."

Yu Lingxue rolled her eyes so hard they almost reached the sky. Bai Cang's counterattack was completely ineffective against her, even somewhat laughable.

Anyone could see that Bai Cang was extremely envious, which was why he said such a thing.

Bai Cang covered his head, unable to refute, and downed a glass of wine, trying to swallow the bitter feeling...

He was, of course, envious and jealous; he could barely contain himself. But he knew that if he showed it, Yu Lingxue would definitely ridicule him mercilessly...

In fact, Yu Lingxue was already very happy, and she was very satisfied with Bai Cang's current state.

Tang Zhi slowly sipped her wine, put down her glass, and said softly:

"You two have both done a great job. Thank you for your hard work these past few days. I'll have a good talk with Zhou Heng, especially about you..."

Tang Zhi looked at Yu Lingxue and said seriously.

Yu Lingxue shook her head and said:

"No... I just did what I was supposed to do, it's nothing at all."

She knew that what she did was insignificant; she had simply avoided making any mistakes.

"Really? Maybe the person involved doesn't think that way."

"Ok?"

The three chatted for a while before heading back.

The next day, near noon,

Zhou Heng lay on the bed and slowly opened his eyes...

He felt like he hadn't slept for so long in a long time. As soon as he opened his eyes and regained consciousness, the first thing that rushed over him was a severe headache!

"hiss--"

He clutched his head, trying to sit up, but the next second, the soreness in his body and the numbness in his arms brought him back to his senses.

"Uh?"

Only then did he realize that there seemed to be someone in his arms...

And the feel...it's like...I'm not wearing any clothes...

"!!"

Zhou Heng's eyes widened instantly, memories of last night flashing through his mind...

I think I drank too much and then had an inappropriate relationship with someone while drunk?

He only remembered leaving the table, and then it seemed that Yu Lingxue took him to rest...

What happened after that was very blurry; he couldn't remember it. He only knew that such a thing had happened...

"No way...no, no, no..."

Zhou Heng's heart was pounding, almost leaping out of his chest. He dared not turn his head, afraid to see that the person in his arms... wasn't Yin Mengran...

But ultimately, he had to face it. Zhou Heng slowly turned his head to look at the person in his arms...

When he saw the face in his arms, the face he knew best, his heart instantly relaxed, and cold sweat broke out...

At this moment, Yin Mengran was sleeping soundly in Zhou Heng's arms, her fair shoulders exposed outside the blanket.

In other words, they finally... last night

"Holy shit..."

Only then did Zhou Heng notice the large patches of hickeys on Yin Mengran's neck, extending from her neck all the way to her chest...
