The people next to Qin Zhouyu kept glancing at him and then at Su Heng, unsure of what to do, as if waiting for Qin Zhouyu to give an order.

Seeing this, Chen Cuo, though unaware of Su Heng's intentions, naturally couldn't stand idly by. He stepped forward and whispered to Su Heng, "What are you trying to do?"

Su Heng clearly didn't want to engage in a whispering scene with him here, so he replied quite naturally in his usual tone, "I have something I want to talk to Senior Qin about."

He said this to Chen Cuo, but his eyes were fixed on Qin Zhouyu.

Qin Zhouyu was silent for a moment, then turned to the people beside him and said something. The people seemed relieved, patted him on the shoulder, and left shortly afterward.

Unlike him, Su Heng did not dismiss the people around him. After telling Chen Cuo that he was leaving first, he led Qin Zhouyu into the grove in the distance.

As the two ventured deeper into the woods, fewer and fewer people appeared on the path. Only when they were completely alone did they stop.

"Okay, what do you want to say?"

Su Heng heard Qin Zhouyu's voice from behind. He stopped and turned around to face him as soon as the voice rang out.

Qin Zhouyu leaned against a large tree nearby, arms crossed, watching him and waiting for him to reveal his purpose.

Su Heng was actually somewhat displeased to see Qin Zhouyu's cold expression. This situation of being almost ignored and unable to elicit any reaction from others made him feel very uncomfortable.

In particular, it reminded him of Liang Qing.

However, people can endure things they normally cannot when they want to achieve their goals.

For example, Su Heng was eager to make Liang Qing suffer at this moment.

Tearing him to pieces while living happily ever after—how can such a thing exist in the world?

"I'm not going to beat around the bush. I'll just ask you directly: do you know anything about Liang Qing and Song Zhiji's affair?" Su Heng said bluntly.

Qin Zhouyu's expression darkened visibly at the mention of Liang Qing.

Seeing this, Su Heng sneered inwardly, and without waiting for his response, continued, "Now the whole school is saying that the two of them are together."

"So what? You called me here just to tell me this?" Qin Zhouyu frowned, looking very impatient.

Su Heng was annoyed by his pretentious act of caring so much, so he retorted, "Isn't it important to you?"

Qin Zhouyu ignored him, gave him a cold look, and turned to leave.

Su Heng was furious. "That woman has been playing us for fools, and now she's hooked up with that idiot Song Zhiji again. It seems she's still involved with you too."

Qin Zhouyu ignored him and continued walking forward on his own.

Su Heng grew increasingly furious, her voice rising with her anger, "Qin Zhouyu! You're just as despicable as Song Zhiji, you like her too!"

Su Heng blurted out his guess, venting his anger while also testing the waters.

He was now certain that Song Zhiji still liked Liang Qing, but he couldn't figure out Qin Zhouyu's attitude.

Qin Zhouyu, however, did not react at all.

Su Heng followed closely behind Qin Zhouyu. At this point, he had lost control and began to speak recklessly, constantly cursing him and Song Zhiji.

Qin Zhouyu was also very capable, and ignored his rambling and shouting.

However, Su Heng started cursing Liang Qing. When he first called Liang Qing a slut, Qin Zhouyu went crazy, grabbed him by the collar, and threw him into a tree.

The incident happened so suddenly that Su Heng hadn't even had time to react before a sharp pain shot through his back. He looked up at the culprit and was immediately shocked.

At this moment, Qin Zhouyu was like an enraged lion. His previous coldness had faded, and his eyes were sharp as if he wanted to kill someone.

Su Heng's subconscious told him that if he wanted to be safe, he had better shut up.

However, Qin Zhouyu's actions only made him angrier. This anger made him ignore the fact that he might get beaten up if he continued to talk.

This infuriating feeling of being caught off guard and losing rational judgment stemmed from the conclusion he drew from Qin Zhouyu's actions.

Su Heng could understand why Qin Zhouyu remained unmoved when Song Zhiji was being scolded.

Su Heng was surprised and amazed by his patience when he was scolded, as he remained unmoved.

But just as Su Heng was about to scold Liang Qing, he immediately couldn't stand it and even did this to Su Heng.

Thinking of this, Su Heng couldn't help but burst into laughter.

He stepped forward and confronted Qin Zhouyu, his sarcasm undisguised: "If you care about her so much, why are you joining us in pressuring the Liang family to kick her out of their home?"

"This is none of your business." Qin Zhouyu frowned, clenching his fists restrainedly, his words carrying a warning.

"It's none of my business?" Su Heng said, then laughed again. "Yes, it's none of my business."

"However, I pushed you into the tree for no reason, so we should settle this score."

Su Heng revealed a sinister expression. After speaking, he stepped forward, grabbed Qin Zhouyu by the collar, and punched him in the face.

Qin Zhouyu reacted quickly, immediately grabbing him and restraining his hands behind his back. He shouted sternly, "You better shut your mouth. If I hear anything bad from you again, I won't hesitate to cripple you right here."

Even after being stopped, Su Heng continued to spit out, "What, these days even victims stand up for their perpetrators and attack another victim? You must have Stockholm syndrome."

Qin Zhouyu did not respond.

Just as Su Heng was about to speak again, Qin Zhouyu released him. Su Heng immediately stopped, but when he looked in Qin Zhouyu's direction again, Qin Zhouyu had already walked quite a distance away.

His gait was normal, as if the argument and fight with Su Heng had never happened, leaving Su Heng alone, so angry that he raised his fist and punched a nearby tree.

A few leaves fell from the tree as Su Heng attacked the trunk, making a sound as they fell. At the same time, footsteps could be heard, heading towards Su Heng.

Su Heng noticed a pair of shoes and looked up, and was momentarily surprised, his brows furrowing slightly.

"Why are you here?"

Su Heng was in a terrible mood, and all his usual politeness vanished. His tone was also quite unfriendly.

The person who came was Yan Su. He glanced around and finally fixed his gaze on Su Heng. "The competition is over, and I just got back to school."

Su Heng actually wanted to ask him why he was in the woods, but he didn't want to pry, because he didn't really care.

Moreover, she really wanted to stay away from him.

Because when you meet Yan Su's eyes, or even just chat with him for a few minutes, you always feel as if he has seen through your body and reached your very soul.

People always feel uncomfortable when someone crosses their inner protective barrier.
