The daily life of a crazy female supporting character trying to redeem herself.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Qin Zhoumu didn't say anything more. He had already said what he needed to say and fulfilled his responsibility as a good friend by advising her to cut her losses in time. As for whether she listened or not, that was beyond his control.

After a long while, Qin Zhoumu heard a sigh from beside him. Xu Xi looked at Liang Qing, who was tidying up the pots and pans not far away, and said sadly, "Actually, I know myself that the hope is slim. I knew it before, but seeing her today, I feel it even more. You know what? I only knew that she had good grades and a good family background before, but I didn't expect that she was so good-looking too."

Governor Qin listened quietly without saying a word.

Fortunately, Xu Xi didn't need him to talk to her at the moment; she seemed to be just in need of confiding in him.

As she spoke, she suddenly smiled apologetically, "Governor, to tell you the truth, when Brother Zhou Yu was making excuses to avoid her just now, I was actually a little happy, even though I know that this happiness was based on Brother Zhou Yu's pain. He likes her, but he can no longer get close to her, and he has to see her with another man. The only choice he can make is to stay away."

Her voice trailed off, “But I still harbored a little delusion, a delusion that as time went by, their contact would decrease, a delusion that he would forget her.”

She then asked Governor Qin, "I know I was selfish, but is it a sin to be a little selfish in a relationship?"

After thinking for a long time, Governor Qin sighed helplessly and said, "It's only human nature."

“It’s human nature, it’s human nature…” Xu Xi repeated his words softly, finding some comfort in them.

She stood up, flashing her usual bright smile, and said in a light tone, "Let's get the telescope set up first!"

Seeing her smile, Governor Qin nodded helplessly, "Alright."

After Liang Qing helped Song Zhiji clean up the dishes, the two sat together in front of the lamp and looked at the night sky.

"Do you mind?" Song Zhiji asked suddenly, looking in the direction where Qin Zhoumu and the other man were.

Liang Qing followed his gaze and glanced in that direction before looking away, replying, "I don't mind."

Song Zhiji was silent for a moment, then asked, "What about Qin Zhouyu? Do you mind?"

He turned to face her profile, waiting earnestly for her answer.

Song Zhiji originally intended to avoid any topic related to Qin Zhouyu, but some things don't cease to exist just because they aren't mentioned.

Just as his inner unease cannot be ignored by deliberately disregarding it.

Although Liang Qing chose to save him last time, the worry on her face after Qin Zhouyu was injured was not fake.

So he desperately wanted an answer, a definite answer from Liang Qing herself; he wanted her to tell him what she thought of Qin Zhouyu.

Is she as indifferent as she appeared tonight?

If so, that would be great for him, as he would confess his feelings for her when the meteor shower arrives.

If not, then he needs to be more cautious and wait until he has taken Qin Zhouyu's place in her heart before telling her.

Otherwise, his honesty might push her further and further away.

Liang Qing turned to look at him. The boy in front of her sat upright and seemed very calm, but the few traces of panic that flashed in his eyes betrayed him.

Song Zhiji and Liang Qing looked at each other. He saw his reflection in her eyes, and he thought that his eyes reflected her in the same way.

At that moment, they only had eyes for each other.

In those few short seconds of eye contact, Song Zhiji's heart was beating faster and faster.

He stared at Liang Qing, feeling as if he were in a courtroom, sitting in the dock, waiting for the judge to announce his verdict.

At this moment, Liang Qing was his judge, waiting for her to pronounce his verdict, eagerly hoping she would tell him whether he, Song Zhiji, could honestly love her tonight.

But while the "defendant" was waiting for the "judge" to deliver the verdict, an "executioner" who was completely out of place in the modern courtroom stormed into the courtroom alone, carrying his blood-stained knife, and stood between the "defendant" and the "judge".

The "executioner" flashed eight white teeth at the "judge," but in the "defendant's" eyes, those eight teeth reflected the blood-stained blade.

Qin Zhoumu chuckled and stepped between the two of them, asking, "Sister, would you like to come over and look at the starry sky with a telescope? Although the meteor shower hasn't started yet, the sky full of stars is still quite a beautiful sight."

Liang Qing knew he was doing it on purpose, but she pretended not to know and cooperated, saying, "No need, I prefer to see with my eyes."

She definitely cannot accept Song Zhiji's confession. If she does, it will make it more difficult for her to win over the other three characters.

Moreover, her feelings for Song Zhiji were not romantic, even though he was a good person and very outstanding.

Furthermore, she was destined to leave this world eventually, and could not stay for anyone, whether it was Song Zhiji or anyone else.

Judging from Song Zhiji's words and actions tonight, he kept hinting at her, and even seemed eager to confess his feelings to her, which made things a bit tricky.

Once he confesses his feelings, she will inevitably have to reject him. Rejection may frustrate Song Zhiji, even though his favorability rating will not decrease any further. The ultimate goal is to reach 100%, which is detrimental to her mission.

Now that Governor Qin has come to interrupt, it has only temporarily delayed Song Zhiji's confession, but it cannot completely resolve his desire to confess. It seems that she needs to think of a way to temporarily stop Song Zhiji from rushing to confess.

After listening, Qin Zhoumu clapped his hands and said, "Sister is right. Some things are better seen with the naked eye."

Xu Xi glanced at her watch and realized that the meteor shower was about to start. She was about to tell Qin Zhoumu when she found that he was nowhere to be seen. After looking around, she finally found him and hurriedly called out, "Zhoumu, what are you doing! Come here quickly, the meteor shower is about to start."

“I won’t go over there. I’ll see with my own eyes. Here, take the binoculars,” Governor Qin replied.

Looking at the starry sky, Xu Xi felt that he couldn't see the whole picture with a telescope, so he walked over to stand next to Qin Zhoumu and said, "Then I'll look with my own eyes too."

After saying that, she glanced at her watch again and muttered, "Why hasn't Brother Zhouyu come back yet?"

She spoke softly, but everyone present heard her.

Liang Qing thought he probably wouldn't come back. She was sure he was avoiding her. He seemed to be in a good mood when he first came up the mountain, but as soon as he saw her, his smile froze on his face.

"I'll give him a call." Qin Zhoumu took out his phone from his pocket and made a call.

While waiting for the call to connect, a slender finger suddenly tapped "hang up" on his phone screen.

Looking down, they saw that Qin Zhouyu had returned sometime earlier. He explained to Xu Xi and the other person, "My phone was dead, the streetlights were dim, and I couldn't see the road very well, so I came back late."

Xu Xi said excitedly, "It's okay, it's good that we made it! The meteor shower is coming soon."

Liang Qing caught a glimpse of their interaction out of the corner of her eye, then looked away, but while her eyes weren't looking, her ears were listening.

So that's how he gets along with others: he speaks politely, doesn't resort to violence, and doesn't act sarcasticly.

But who can blame this?

Wasn't it "she" who tormented him to this extent?

It's fine if he only targets her; if you calculate it that way, he's the only victim.
