"I'll go downstairs right now and make him leave."

"Wait a minute," Yun Shiyue pulled her back and placed the knife and fork in her hand. "There's no rush. Let's eat breakfast first."

"……it is good."

After breakfast.

Yun Shiyue gave her the necklace that Qi Funan had given her, saying, "Give it back to him, or throw it in the trash."

"……it is good."

First floor.

Qi Funan sat leaning against the wall by the door, his forehead covered in fine sweat, his long legs casually bent, his sharp features hidden in the hazy heat, his brows furrowed, looking like he was in great pain.

"Qi Funan, are you alright?"

Yun Yao wanted to help him up, but after glancing at the person inside the door casually flipping through magazines on the bookshelf, she withdrew her hand.

Hearing her voice, Qi Funan opened his eyes, steadied himself against the wall, and asked in a dry, hoarse voice, "You're going abroad?"

"Yes," it's good to say it this way, so that Qi Funan won't come looking for her again later.

Qi Funan hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and grabbed her wrist. "Why so suddenly? Why didn't you come to class yesterday?"

Yun Yao took a step back and broke free from his hand. "It has nothing to do with you. Don't come looking for me again."

“Yun Yao…” Qi Funan frowned deeply, and faint blue veins appeared on his fair neck, with fine sweat running down his face.

His voice was filled with barely suppressed emotion, "You were the one who provoked me, so why are you the one who says it's over first?"

Yun Yao lowered her head, not daring to look at him, and handed him the necklace in her hand. "I was just teasing you, but you took it seriously. Here, take the necklace back. Don't come looking for me again."

Qi Funan looked at the necklace on her finger, and the image of her taking the necklace and saying she liked it came to mind.

Is it possible to act so convincingly just by deliberately teasing him?

"Since I've already given it to you, there's no reason to take it back." Her voice trembled, whether from illness or from the unbearable pain in her heart...

"If you don't want it, just throw it away."

Qi Funan's eyes were bloodshot, his gaze both obscure and persistent. "Is it because this necklace is too cheap that you don't like it? I can give you something more expensive and better."

Yun Yao's phone vibrated a few times. Yun Shiyue had sent her a message: [My patience with anyone other than you is limited.]

Yun Yao gripped her phone tightly and shoved the necklace into his hand. "Qi Funan, didn't you hear me tell you to get lost?"

Qi Funan gripped her hand tremblingly, pressing her against the wall behind her. He was fierce and stubborn, yet also fragile and pitiful. "You treat me like a dog, coming and going as you please! Is it fun to deliberately torment me?"

If it's just for fun...

It's okay...

“This is no fun at all, you’re so boring, so now take your broken necklace and get out of here.”

Yun Yao pushed him away.

Qi Funan took a step back in dejection.

She opened the door and went inside.

He watched her retreating figure, then raised his hand and tossed the necklace into the artificial lake not far away.

Yun Shiyue put his arm around her and went upstairs, gently rubbing the redness at the corners of her eyes with his fingertips. "Are you sad?"

Yun Yao pushed his hand away and rubbed her eyes. "No, I was just blown by the wind."

Yun Shiyue chuckled softly, "Mm."

"Oh, right," Yun Yao remembered about going abroad, "Lu Jingyu submitted my application for an exchange student program abroad. Did you withdraw it for me?"

"No."

"So, should I still go to school?"

"I'm going abroad soon to discuss an acquisition deal, and if things go smoothly, I'll be staying overseas for a while."

"..." That's fine too, at least I'm not afraid of running into Qi Funan.

Once Qi Funan gets back and processes what happened today, he'll probably beat her up every time he sees her.

The system also spoke up, [This is a powerful underworld prince, treated like a dog by you. Beating you up is the least of his worries.]

Yun Yao: ...The underworld prince?

Why didn't the dog system say so earlier...?

Luckily, she's going abroad...

-

I had been abroad for six months when it was already winter.

Yun Shiyue is very busy with work and often has to return to China to handle domestic company affairs.

When Yun Yao first arrived abroad, Yun Shiyue still had to pick her up and drop her off at school every day. Later, he gradually loosened up his restrictions and even allowed her to go out with her classmates occasionally, although the classmates could only be girls...

However, with Yun Shiyue back in China, she can finally let loose for a while...

I had just made plans with my classmate Ava this morning to have hot pot at a nearby Chinese hot pot restaurant, but in the afternoon she messaged me saying that her lab data was wrong and she had to go back and redo it.

In the end, she had to go alone.

She packed her things and took her wallet.

She had just stepped out when someone snatched her backpack...

Okay, okay, this is the Nth time she's been robbed while traveling alone abroad.

From initial impatience and anger, I've evolved to a state of calm and acceptance of things as they are.

Fortunately, she was prepared and had her wallet in her clothes pocket.

But today was unexpected...

Not long after the thief ran into the alley, a man came out of the alley carrying her bag.

Snowflakes fell heavily on his broad shoulders, and he walked with a lazy yet cool gait, exuding a decadent sexiness.

A wisp of white mist escaped from her pale, rosy lips, quickly dissipating in the biting winter wind. Her voice was casual and cool, "Hey, your bag."

After a few seconds of stunned silence, Yun Yao immediately raised her hand to cover her face, but only after covering it did she remember that she had worn a hat, scarf, and mask when she went out.

At this moment, only his eyes are visible.

fortunately.

She stepped forward and took her bag, her voice muffled by her mask, "Thank you."

"You're welcome."

Yun Yao felt that the voice had a hint of gritted teeth... but logically he shouldn't have recognized her.

The next night.

Ava dragged her to a bar, saying, "I'm going to have a few drinks with my crush, why don't you come with me?"

Yun Yao refused, "Me, a third wheel?"

"No, no, no, I need you to chime in with a few words when my crush asks me about my past relationships, to prove that I'm still an innocent little girl."

"..."

Finally, Ava forcibly pulled the person over, saying, "It's not easy to be free from everyone's control, so I should enjoy the pleasures of life."

"I can't drink alcohol."

"Look at the handsome guy! Who comes to a bar just to drink?"

"..."

Go into the bar.

Yunyao sat in the corner, watching Ava chat with someone.

In the end, it seems he didn't manage to win over his crush, and ended up getting drunk himself.

Yun Yao booked a car on her phone, went over, and woke the person up, saying, "Wait until we get home before you go back to sleep, okay?"

The boy next to her put down the light blue wine in his hand and said softly, "Yun Yao, the reason I agreed to come out with her was actually for you. I deliberately got her drunk because I wanted to confess my feelings to you."

Yun Yao never expected there to be such a person. "...You don't like her, yet you go out with her, just to string her along?"

The boy leaned forward a few steps, pressing Yun Yao between himself and the bar counter. "I did this for you, aren't you moved?"

She really didn't dare to move.

"If you come any closer, I'm going to call for help!"

The boy smiled, a hint of disdain in his eyes, "I heard you've been living with someone, and the man you're living with is often not around. You're being kept by a rich man, right?"

"Older men aren't as physically fit anymore, how about trying something more exciting, hmm?"

"..." Yun Shiyue rarely appears at school, but there's no need to spread rumors like this.

"My place or yours, hmm?"

“I think…” You may have misunderstood.

Before Yun Yao could finish speaking, the boy in front of her was grabbed by the collar and punched hard.

"If you're going to be interested in this kind of trash, you might as well play with me!"
