Wear it quickly! My mad dog-like host!

School season.

After spending seven or eight days with their parents, Bai Jiaojiao and Su Qingyan quickly took their tuition and living expenses to school to register before their parents' worried and loving feelings turned into impatience.

Back in their long-missed dorm room, they quickly put down their things, tidied up their beds, closed their closets, and then emerged from their adjacent dorm rooms, heading towards the cafeteria.

Su Qingyan glanced at Bai Jiaojiao, whose expression was not very good, every now and then, hesitating about how to tell her the news she had just heard.

"Stop it." Bai Jiaojiao rolled her eyes. "I know what you want to ask, but you don't have to keep glancing at me like that. It's making me uncomfortable."

"Sigh... I think..." Su Qingyan sighed, feeling troubled about what she was about to say.

Although she looked down on and disliked Cui Yi, he was still her best friend's boyfriend, and they hadn't officially broken up yet. If he did anything bad, it would more or less affect her best friend's reputation.

Su Qingyan said, "Don't you need to formally break up with Cui Yi?"

Su Qingyan said, "Although this will confirm the rumors about Cui Yi, it's better than you finding out later that you've become part of their scheme."

Who would have thought that Cui Yi would be rumored to have a physical relationship with Gu Xian? Now that I think about it, I understand why he protected Gu Xian without any investigation on Chaokai Mountain.

"It's a good thing you've been posting updates about your stay at the guesthouse lately, and Cui Yi isn't around. Otherwise, you wouldn't be getting all those sympathetic looks from everyone," Su Qingyan comforted her.

Amidst a public opinion climate where countless people are proclaiming that "same-sex" relationships are the only true love, even best friends can be portrayed as vicious female supporting characters who destroy this "true love," becoming the target of much criticism and accused of being third parties in a relationship.

Even if she is unaware of the truth, even if she is the official girlfriend, there will still be people who shout nonsense like "the one who is not loved is the mistress" to scold her.

Given Cui Yi's "gentlemanly" nature of always protecting others regardless of the situation, Su Qingyan couldn't even imagine what kind of public opinion her best friend would be caught up in.

Moreover, she now heard an even more outrageous accusation: Bai Jiaojiao and Cui Yi were separated for a summer vacation, so it must be because Bai Jiaojiao couldn't satisfy Cui Yi, which is why Cui Yi went to Gu Xian.

Putting aside whether this statement is reasonable or how outrageous it is, the key point is that some people actually believe it!

Satisfy? Who does Cui Yi think he is, needing others to satisfy him?

Under the same circumstances, why didn't Jiaojiao look for someone else?

Garbage is garbage, yet people keep making so many excuses. The worst part is that quite a few people genuinely try to whitewash this garbage behavior!

While Su Qingyan was filled with righteous indignation, Bai Jiaojiao became increasingly calm and even had the mood to tell a lame joke to comfort her: "No wonder I've been so successful in my career lately, it turns out I'm just unlucky in love."

Seeing her best friend's eyes widen in anger upon hearing her words, she immediately chickened out and giggled, trying to appease her: "Okay, okay, I'll handle this. Anyway, he and I don't have any real relationship, and I'm not involved in anything..."

Bai Jiaojiao paused, then her expression turned serious as she looked at Su Qingyan earnestly and said, "Qingyan, I have to thank you for this..."

If her best friend hadn't kept reminding her to protect herself and not to do anything she would regret, she might not be so calm right now.

A large number of women feel ashamed about this, even if they enjoy it, they habitually put themselves in a inferior position and regard themselves as weak, thus generating a sense of obedience from the bottom of their hearts.

Those who say she should meet Cui Yi's emotional needs to prevent him from cheating in their relationship are just like that.

She couldn't remain completely calm about this, even though she felt disgusted and ashamed to be covered in mud.

Bai Jiaojiao: "Trust me, I can handle this."

He quickly reverted to his previous carefree demeanor: "Compared to Mingyi and the others, Cui Yi is far inferior."

It's not just women who admire strong men; women also admire strong women.

Conversely, the same applies.

Those who have spent time with Mingyi and her friends will subconsciously use their most outstanding qualities—the qualities that make people overlook their good looks—as criteria for choosing a partner.

However, men who admire strength are easily labeled as having illicit sexual desires and are stigmatized by other women.

Cui Yi might be slightly famous at Jiangshi University because of his appearance, but compared to Ming Yi and the others' insightful words, proper manners, and elegant demeanor, he's like an immature child.

Bai Jiaojiao exclaimed for the umpteenth time, "Where did Boss Qian find these four people?"

He remained loyal to Boss Qian, turning down countless opportunities for fame and choosing to stay at Guesthouse No. 88 as a lowly employee.

Having finally earned some extra money, the boss didn't forget to bring a small gift.

These are truly ten outstanding employees who moved their boss.

Su Qingyan shook her head and pulled Bai Jiaojiao to the side of the road. "Who knows?"

As Su Qingyan glanced ahead, about to remind Bai Jiaojiao to watch where she was going, she stopped in her tracks, turned her head to look at Cui Yi walking towards her, and her expression immediately turned cold.

Bai Jiaojiao followed her gaze, her face showing no surprise, but subconsciously comparing everything about Cui Yi with Ming Si and Ming Zhan.

They couldn't compare in appearance, and their gait was frivolous and carefree, unlike Ming Si and Ming Zhan who walked with a steady gait.

Bai Jiaojiao blinked and suddenly realized that the reason why the Pear Blossom Lake Marriage Tree could cause so many couples to break up might not be without the fact that Ming Si and his friends had raised others' standards.

"Jiaojiao." Cui Yi ignored Su Qingyan beside him and said to Bai Jiaojiao with a stern face, "Come here for a moment, I have something to say to you."

Bai Jiaojiao mentally crossed out Cui Yi again. It was obvious he wasn't here to explain his relationship with Gu Xian; he was probably waiting for her to back down first.

Hmm? Bai Jiaojiao suddenly realized that she didn't seem to have any feelings for Cui Yi anymore. Seeing this face that she used to always give in to, she felt no emotional fluctuation.

"Did you come here to break up with me?" With the feelings fading and no sunk costs remaining, Bai Jiaojiao clicked her tongue and casually waved her hand under Su Qingyan's worried and wary gaze. "Fine, then let's break up and delete each other from our contacts."

After saying that, she took out her phone and deleted Cui Yi's contact information.

Jiangshi University has a large campus, and since we're not in the same major, it's difficult to even meet unless we're deliberately trying to bump into each other.

"!!!" Cui Yi didn't expect Bai Jiaojiao to say such a thing, and there was not a trace of lingering affection for him in her tone!

He thought Bai Jiaojiao was still throwing a tantrum, and frowned as he explained, "Me and—"

"Cui Yi!"

Gu Xian's voice sounded from behind.

All three of them looked over at the same time.

Bai Jiaojiao clicked her tongue impatiently and pulled Su Qingyan away while Cui Yi was still stunned.
