"Ayu..."

As soon as Zhou Wu opened his eyes, he saw the person he liked. His consciousness was still a little fuzzy, but his eyes were unconsciously filled with smiles, and he rubbed his nose against her face.

Feeling a slightly cool and damp air, Zhou Wu suddenly woke up.

She is crying.

Thinking of what happened yesterday, Zhou Wu hurriedly sat up and took a tissue to wipe her tears:

"Ayu, it's okay, I'm not scared anymore..."

"It's all my fault. I shouldn't have let my guard down and let someone take advantage of me. I promise that this won't happen again next time..."

"With me here, no one can bully you in the future."

"Baby, please stop crying. Your eyes are swollen like walnuts..."

"..."

Jiang Deng's tears were actually about to stop.

But who asked Zhou Wu to coax her? Once he coaxed her, her tears couldn't be controlled and burst out again.

She wanted to become stronger.

No need to rely on anyone, strong in the secular sense.

No one can look down on her.

Now it seems that it is not enough for her to just value herself and live in a quiet corner.

Zhou Wu held her, and after a long while, Jiang Deng finally managed to control her eyes.

【When did you come here? 】she asked him.

"I just arrived yesterday... I didn't check on you on purpose. I came here because I heard that you were robbed..."

Zhou Wu spoke vaguely, hiding the fact that he had been following her all the way. He looked away, paused, and then said:

"Ayu, can you come back to Snow City with me? It's not safe here."

"Baby, we won't break up, okay?"

“Whatever you want to do, you can do it in Syracuse.”

"Besides, I can also talk to you, baby. Look, when you are outside, there is no one to chat with you, right?"

Jiang Deng lowered his eyelids: [Wait until I finish my work here. ]

Reality shattered her fantasy. Before she could become truly strong, she really still needed the label of Zhou Wu.

And there is the Jiang family.

The reason she encountered such a thing was ultimately because of her identity as a fake daughter. Why should Jiang Zhengquan stay out of it?

"Okay, then I'll wait for you." Zhou Wu's eyes lit up when he received her affirmative reply, and he kissed Jiang Deng on the forehead.

He had prepared a lot of words to persuade her.

Now it seems that there is no need to say anything.

Afterwards, Jiang Deng was still listless, leaning against the head of the bed without saying a word, with his eyes open without blinking, his pupils unfocused, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Zhou Wu didn't like seeing her like this, and it wasn't good to go without eating.

He picked her up and dressed her.

Zhou Wu discovered it yesterday afternoon. She had a new wound on her hand and a purple bruise in the middle of her abdomen that had not yet faded.

Zhou Wu felt so distressed that he stared at the wound for a long time and asked her:

"Are they robbers?"

Jiang Deng nodded, pushed him aside and got out of bed:

[Where is the person who hurt me yesterday? I want to go and see. ]

But Jiang Deng overestimated herself. As soon as her feet landed on the ground, her legs felt numb and she staggered and almost fell.

"Ayu!" Zhou Wu hurriedly went down to help her, picked her up by the waist, and put her back on the bed. "Baby, have a good rest in bed today, okay? We'll go to the hospital for a detailed checkup later."

Jiang Deng still looked at him stubbornly.

"…They are all in the police station and have been locked up." Zhou Wu didn't want her to be exposed to these dirty things. "Baby, I will deal with those people."

Jiang Deng sneered and closed his eyes.

Unfortunately, what she wanted was far more than just a simple solution.

Because of the madness of last night, Jiang Deng had a lot of marks on his body and could no longer wear short-sleeved shirts and shorts. Zhou Wu's back was also covered with fine scratches from fingernails.

The clothes she had bought before were all seasonal summer styles, which did not fit her well. Zhou Wu rummaged through her closet, but finally gave up and asked someone to buy new ones.

After I finished packing, I went to the hospital for a check-up. The morning passed quickly.

afternoon.

Jiang Deng, accompanied by Zhou Wudi, came to the police station and finally met the murderer behind the scenes.

Boss Li was in the detention center with a bruised face and a gloomy expression.

Jiang Deng was a little dazed.

She didn't remember the man's name, but she could vaguely see a familiar shadow on his swollen face.

A light bulb went off in Jiang Deng’s mind.

The nouveau riche in the previous life!

It turned out to be him.

Ironic.

From this perspective, it was not without benefits that she had been clinging to Zhou Wu in her previous life. She had indeed avoided many disasters because of it.

After leaving the police station, Jiang Deng lay in bed for the entire afternoon, feeling very depressed.

Zhou Wu asked her when she would return to Xuecheng.

Jiang Deng asked him when he would go back.

The two were in a stalemate.

Just then, a message suddenly popped up on Jiang Deng's phone which was placed on the bedside table.

Shen Zining: [I thought about it and decided that we could still be friends! (pitiful)]

Zhou Wu caught a glimpse of the news from the corner of his eye, his brows jumped, and he immediately became alert:

"Ayu, who is this?"

He thought of the boy who had dinner with her yesterday. His tone...

[No one, just a friend. ]

Jiang Deng turned the phone over with the screen facing down.

She had already made her attitude clear when she invited Shen Zining to dinner yesterday, but she didn't expect him to send her a message at this time.

She really can never have too many friends.

After all, she only has a few.

Zhou Wu took Jiang Deng's hand and kissed it, looking at her with peach blossom eyes, and said softly:

"Ayu, we...are back together, right?"

Jiang Deng looked at him and didn't say anything for a long time.

"Ayu?"

Zhou Wu felt a little flustered when he saw that she was slow to answer.

Jiang Deng suddenly curved his eyes and smiled:

[Yes, we got back together.]

[As soon as I finish the case here, I will go back to Snow City, okay? ]

【You go back first.】

Zhou Wu was not satisfied with this answer:

"Baby, you can hire a lawyer when the court session comes. You don't have to be present."

“It’s not safe here.”

[I can hire a bodyguard.] Jiang Deng was unmoved. He was annoyed by what he said. He became angry and the smile on his lips became a little mean. [What? If I fall in love with you, will I lose my personal freedom?]

"Ayu, that's not what I meant."

[Then you go! I said, I will go back to Snow City after I finish my work! ]

Jiang Deng finished speaking in one breath, his eyes reddening as he looked at Zhou Wu.

She was angry now. She didn't know where the anger came from, but this fire was bursting out from her chest and burning her chest.

If I must say.

Probably--

Reality completely crushed her pride and self-esteem, and made her realize that in order to survive temporarily, she had to bow her head to Zhou Wu.

She thought she and he were equal in personality.

But unfortunately, there is a distinction between high and low in the secular world, and her current situation is that she is inferior to others.

Since she was enjoying the other party's protection, how could she have the courage to be arrogant towards her financial sponsor?

Ha, actually, she shouldn’t even be angry at Zhou Wu.

Yes, that's true.

Her anger was actually directed at herself.

She just suddenly realized that she was indeed a waste.

Nothing can be done.

Without Zhou Wu and the Jiang family, she was nothing in the eyes of others.

This is indeed true.

This anger should be directed at yourself.
