Locking away my heart and love! Going back to 2000 to be a top student again.

"Don't say such hurtful things." Zhou Mochen pressed a kiss to her forehead without giving her a chance to resist: "You're my girlfriend, so how is that rape?"

"Don't look at me like that, Su Su, I apologize to you, okay?"

"I'm so angry with you. You want to break up with me for another man. I'm so angry I've lost my mind. I'm sorry, did I hurt you?"

"Or, why don't you hit me a few more times to vent your anger?"

Zhou Mochen's kisses landed haphazardly on Xu Su's face as he kept apologizing.

It seems he truly regrets it.

But, so what?

Not all apologies are helpful…

Xu Su stood there for a long time, until he stopped talking, before she finally spoke: "Let go."

Zhou Mochen paused slightly, then released his hands from her face: "I know I was wrong, Xu Su. You can punish me however you want."

Xu Su lowered her eyes: "Move aside..."

"...You really have to go back?" Zhou Mochen stood behind the door, watching her quietly for a long time. Seeing that she was determined to leave, he slowly smiled: "What am I supposed to do? If you leave, leaving me here, what am I supposed to do?"

"I don't care what you do!"

Xu Su's suppressed anger exploded instantly, and the suicidal rage that had been tightly suppressed in her chest burst forth, "What does it matter to me whether you live or die!"

Why does she have to worry about what to do about this and what to do about that?

What the hell does it have to do with her!

Why didn't anyone ask her what to do? Why didn't anyone ask her what to do when they pulled down her pants?

"Step aside!"

She screamed hysterically, and Zhou Mochen, disregarding getting her wet, hugged her tightly, saying, "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry..."

"What's the use of saying sorry! What's the use of saying sorry!" Xu Su struggled desperately. "I said, we're over, Zhou Mochen, I'm done with you!"

Even Shen Chen didn't really bully her, but Zhou Mochen did.

Just because he was angry, he could force himself on her against her will. What right did he have?

He just knows she likes him, and he's sure that if he apologizes, she'll forgive him without hesitation.

no way!

"Alright, alright," Zhou Mochen said, not daring to provoke her any further given her emotional state. He slowly released her hand and looked at her cautiously. "Then explain Xi Zirong's matter clearly, and I'll take you back."

Xu Su was so angry she almost laughed. This person didn't take her words seriously at all. She had said they were breaking up, yet he was still bringing up Xi Zirong!

"And then there's Jiang Chusheng and Si Xuan," Zhou Mochen had clearly had someone thoroughly investigate Xu Su's daily life at school in the two months since the start of the semester. He controlled the turmoil in his heart, afraid of making things worse, and asked softly, "If you say you have nothing to do with them, and nothing to do with Xi Zirong, then I'll believe you, okay?"

"Whether you believe me or not is none of my business, not at all!" Xu Su lifted her lowered eyelids, her red-rimmed eyes filled with hatred: "Zhou Mochen, I will never explain a single word to you again."

A malicious smile slowly curved her lips: "Aren't you very concerned about me and Xi Zirong? Well, let me tell you, he is better than you. He's right. He never forces me, and everything we do is consensual."

Zhou Mochen's pupils suddenly constricted as he recalled the words the boy had spoken when they first met.

He said, 'I can't compare to you. I would never threaten her or force her. Everything we do is consensual.'

What he asked was, 'What did you both do willingly?'...

At this moment, Zhou Mochen couldn't get any answers. He even took a half step back, looking flustered.

"..." Xu Su withdrew her gaze, lowered her eyes to avoid looking at him, and said in a low voice, "Move aside."

The bedroom was silent. The two faced off for a long time before Zhou Mochen stepped aside.

He moved aside!

This hidden attribute of Zhou Mochen, who is always a man of his word and domineering and unreasonable, actually made such a 'concession'.

Xu Su strode toward the garage, with Zhou Mochen following behind. He tried to pull her back, but then withdrew his hand.

Even after Xu Su drove away, he remained standing there motionless, his face ashen, his pupils pitch black, looking eerie.

As they drove out of the mansion's premises, Xu Su finally managed to hold back her tears for a long time before they started to flow. Her blurred vision made it impossible for her to see the road ahead, so she simply stopped and cried her heart out.

Once she had calmed down, she forcefully ripped off the Buddhist prayer beads from her neck, rolled down the car window, and threw them into the roadside bushes.

All that talk about calming her mind and spirit, all that scheming was just to keep her, all that Zhou Mochen was someone who would never hurt her.

A complete load of bullshit!

Xu Su sped all the way to school, went back to her dorm to get a charging cable, and after charging her phone, she called Huang Feng and Qian Jia out.

The three of them were drinking at a food stall outside the school.

Xu Su's eyes were bloodshot, and she kept drinking alone. Huang Feng and Qian Jia could tell something was wrong at a glance. They didn't know what had happened, and they asked, but Xu Su refused to speak and just kept drinking.

As they drank, Xu Su started crying while holding the beer bottle, which terrified Huang Feng and Qian Jia.

Come to think of it, apart from the time Zhou Mochen hit Xi Zirong, they haven't seen Xu Su cry much. Something big must have happened!

Did you have a fight with your boyfriend?

The two women exchanged a glance, trying to stop Xu Su from drinking, but they were no match for a drunkard.

Several classmates came up to ask if they needed help, but the two politely declined.

Fortunately, the area was surrounded by schools and there weren't many shady characters around. Even so, Xu Su's tearful appearance still attracted the attention of many people nearby.

A group of boys at a table in the corner stared for a while, then one of them exclaimed, "Holy crap!" "Isn't that our school's most beautiful girl? How come she's drunk like this?"

"The beautiful Xu?" Another person looked over and, after recognizing that it was indeed Xu Su, frowned and said, "Should we go up and help her?"

"No thanks, they've already turned down several offers to help." Wo Cao Ge pulled out his phone and laughed, "Just call some acquaintances. Xu, the school beauty, has plenty of suitors. Si Xuan wants to pursue his goddess, right? It's time to show him what he's got."

Huang Feng and Qian Jia, unaware that a 'kind person' in the corner had already called for help, were hesitating about who to call, as the two of them couldn't handle this drunkard.

Huang Feng's first thought was to call Zhou Mochen, since he was Xu Su's boyfriend, but neither of them had Zhou Mochen's contact information.

After much thought, Qian Jia tagged Xi Zirong in their high school class group chat: "[Xi Zirong, are you free? Could you do me a favor?]"

Shortly after, Xi Zirong replied in the group chat: 【What's up?】

Qian Jia: [Please message me privately, it's extremely urgent.]

Qian Jia applied to add Xi Zirong on QQ, and she accepted the request instantly.

After explaining the situation, Xi Zirong, having confirmed the location, quickly replied, "Wait for me."
