She said, "How could I ever forget him in this lifetime?"

Zhou Mochen's expression hardened, and his tone turned icy, "Are you threatening me?"

"I didn't mean any threat, I was just stating the facts." Xu Su wasn't intimidated by Zhou Mochen's appearance at all, and met his gaze frankly. "It was indeed wrong of me to keep my relationship with Xi Zirong a secret from you, but that's not a reason for you to take action against him."

Zhou Mochen looked at her quietly for a long time, then slowly smiled, "Xu Su, you may not know me very well. I never need to give reasons for what I do."

He still had a smile on his face, but his whole body exuded a fierce aura.

These words made Xu Su panic. Seeing that he had finished speaking and was about to leave, she hurriedly ran off the bed and grabbed him. "Calm down and think about it, Zhou Mochen. Is it really worth it to deal with Xi Zirong? I know what you care about. Isn't it that you care about me having been with him?"

Zhou Mochen's arm was grabbed, and he stopped in his tracks, turning back to look at the girl with a worried expression. He said softly, "If I were you, I wouldn't be acting so anxious right now."

He could even smile and instruct Xu Su, "You were with him, that's a fact. Rather than dwelling on that, what I care about more now is how much you care about him, how much Xi Zirong means to you, understand?"

Xu Su understood, how could she not understand!

Shen Chen had already reminded her...

However, if she doesn't stop him now, she doesn't know what he might do to Xi Zirong.

Xu Su took a deep breath, forcing herself to appear less anxious. "You want me to forget him? Then you should definitely not go after him. Think about it carefully. If Xi Zirong suffers your revenge because of me, do you really think I can be completely indifferent?"

Faced with a man consumed by jealousy, she was truly at a loss, and almost resorted to heartfelt persuasion.

“If something happens to Xi Zirong, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life. I’m really not threatening you, Zhou Mochen. I’m not a heartless person. He suffered because of me for no reason. How can I not feel guilty?”

"...Guilt?" Zhou Mochen seemed to have been persuaded, his tone softening slightly. "Just guilt?"

“I just feel guilty!” Xu Su nodded quickly. “I’ve already broken up with him, and I won’t see him again after the college entrance exam unless something unexpected happens. Forgetting him is just a matter of time, but if anything happens to him because of me, I will always remember that there was such a person.”

These are Xu Su's honest thoughts.

When she broke up with Xi Zirong, she had already made up her mind that the two of them would never see each other again after the college entrance examination.

Xu Su still cares about Xi Zirong, so she felt upset when she saw him and Gu Yunjia seemingly kissing this afternoon. However, she is confident that this feeling will fade over time.

This concern is simply a human flaw; it's just that she can't accept that the guy who used to be all for her has other girls around him.

Xu Su never thought she was particularly magnanimous or selfless; she possessed all the worst human traits, such as possessiveness.

She never liked anyone else touching her things. In Xu Su's heart, Xi Zirong belonged to her alone, inside and out.

So it's just that I can't accept it right now...

This innocent campus romance might remain vivid in one or two years, but after three or five years, it will eventually be forgotten in the passage of time.

Looking back later, I probably won't even remember Xi Zirong's features clearly. That's the kind of ending a first love should have.

This is also the ending that Xu Su arranged for her and Xi Zirong's relationship.

She chose to be with Zhou Mochen, so she had no choice but to let go of Xi Zirong; that would be better for everyone.

"...Alright, go put your shoes on." Zhou Mochen pulled Xu Su's hand off his arm, a slight smile playing on his lips. "You're really good at sweet-talking, and really good at lying. Do you think I should trust you again?"

Xu Su also felt that the floor was a bit cold. She quickly walked to the bedside and put on her shoes, when she heard those words, which gave her a headache.

"Why don't you trust me one more time?" Although she has a criminal record, her credibility shouldn't be enough to warrant a life sentence.

Xu Su tentatively raised one finger, speaking in a pleading tone, "Just this once, Zhou Mochen, I promise you, I'll only like you from now on, okay?"

Zhou Mochen stared at her silently for a long time, then opened the door and left without saying a word.

Xu Su felt a little unsure, wondering what he meant.

She was afraid he would target Xi Zirong, and she was also worried that he would force her to transfer to a school in the capital.

Thinking of Xi Zirong, I wonder how badly he was injured...

Xu Su was in a state of confusion, and after hesitating for a long time, she still chased after him.

Zhou Mochen was sitting on the living room sofa, facing her. As soon as Xu Su entered the living room, she saw that he looked serious and was on the phone.

Seeing Xu Su come out, Zhou Mochen's expression turned slightly serious. He instructed the person on the other end of the phone, "If there are no flights, arrange a helicopter. I'll be back tonight."

Xu Su's heart skipped a beat. Was this person really that impatient?

Are we taking her back to the capital tonight?

Zhou Mochen hung up the phone, frowned, and looked at Xu Su, who was standing there in a daze. "Come here."

"..." Already angry that he insisted on returning to the capital tonight, Xu Su's anger surged to the top of her head when she heard Zhou Mochen's commanding tone.

She clenched her fists, wanting to have a huge fight with him regardless of the consequences, but she was also afraid of making things worse.

Xu Su took a deep breath, barely suppressing her temper, and slowly walked to the sofa opposite Zhou Mochen, sitting down and looking at him expressionlessly.

Knowing Xu Su as he did, Zhou Mochen knew exactly what she was thinking under her gaze.

He got up, walked over, and pulled Xu Su into his arms. He kissed her stiff face and sighed helplessly, "I have to go back to the capital tonight. Are you scared to stay here alone? Why don't you come with me?"

Xu Su was somewhat surprised, "I just heard you say you were going back to the capital, I thought..."

Zhou Mochen interrupted her, "Don't rush to transfer schools. Let's talk about it when I get back from Beijing. Things got a bit out of hand this afternoon. Don't go to school for the next few days. How about coming back to Beijing with me for a few days?"

What happened this afternoon really caused a huge uproar. Xu Su and Xi Zirong were already very well-known at school, and their relationship was basically known throughout the school.

The news that Zhou Mochen beat Xi Zirong so badly on the playground last afternoon, with so many students watching, couldn't be kept secret.

Xu Su could easily imagine what her classmates would say about her.

So, it's probably better not to go back to school for the next few days...

Although she considered herself to have extremely strong mental resilience and not easily influenced by external factors, the thought of the chaotic public opinion and the gazes of her classmates...

With the opinions of her two good friends, Huang Feng and Qian Jia, Xu Su inevitably had thoughts of escaping.

But, going back to the capital with Zhou Mochen...
