After being reborn, the school beauty's entire family knelt down to repent.

Wang Qingyue could no longer bear this dramatic scene. She wiped away her tears and said firmly, "Chen Ming, you don't need to explain anymore. I understand."

She turned to leave, her resolute back view piercing Chen Ming's heart like a sharp blade.

Chen Ming was extremely anxious, knowing that Wang Qingyue's misunderstanding was getting deeper and deeper.

He chased after her again, grabbing Wang Qingyue's wrist tightly, almost pleading.

"Qingyue, listen to me, everything can be explained. She's just a troublemaker, we have absolutely no relationship!"

Zhao Rou cleverly followed, clinging to Chen Ming's side relentlessly, looking aggrieved, and continued, "Chen Ming, how could you say such things? You're clearly my ex-boyfriend!"

Chen Ming felt a rush of blood to his head and turned to shout angrily, "Zhao Rou, shut up!"

Zhao Rou was startled by his sharp gaze, and her delicate face instantly turned pale.

But she quickly regained her gentle demeanor, looking at Chen Ming with teary eyes, and said pitifully, "Chen Ming, don't be so fierce. It's really unfair of you to treat me like this."

Chen Ming took a deep breath and stared coldly at Zhao Rou.

He abruptly shook off Zhao Rou's hand. "Zhao Rou, stop pretending! I know exactly what kind of person you are. If you don't want to go back to jail, get the hell out of here!"

Zhao Rou was caught off guard by Chen Ming's words.

She struggled to maintain her smile and stammered, "Chen Ming, what are you saying? I don't understand. What hypocrisy?"

Chen Ming showed no mercy and continued his sarcastic remarks: "Didn't you say we had some kind of relationship? Then let me ask you, how many dirty things did you do behind my back during the time we were together? What kind of innocent act did you put on in front of Wang Qingyue? Do you dare to deny that you were messing around with Yu Chuang? Do you dare to deny that you sold yourself to Fatty Wang for money?"

Zhao Rou's expression changed drastically, her lips trembled, and she was speechless for a moment.

Seeing this, Wang Qingyue couldn't help but sneer. She wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and let out a soft hum.

“So that’s how it is, Zhao Rou, you really are something else,” Wang Qingyue said sarcastically. “I thought you were an innocent person, but it turns out you’re just a woman with a heart of stone.”

Zhao Rou's chest heaved with anger, and a flash of hatred crossed her eyes.

She couldn't help but shout in defense: "What right do you have to say that about me? Chen Ming, you have no idea how much I love you, this is all a misunderstanding!"

Chen Ming gave a cold laugh and mercilessly exposed her: "Love me? You're only after my money. All you care about is your own interests. Zhao Rou, you're disgusting."

Zhao Rou's expression changed again.

Wang Qingyue saw this and found the person in front of her utterly ridiculous.

She turned to Chen Ming and softly advised, "Chen Ming, don't waste your time with this kind of person."

Upon hearing these words, Zhao Rou's eyes welled up with tears, and she ultimately fled the scene in a disheveled state.

Chen Ming watched Zhao Rou's departing figure and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

From that moment on, he completely severed ties with Zhao Rou and would never again give her the opportunity to ruin his life.

Standing beside Chen Ming, Wang Qingyue breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing his calm expression, but still asked with some curiosity, "Chen Ming, how do you know about those things?"

Chen Ming turned to look at her, smiled slightly, and said slowly, "Some things always have clues, it's just that I was blind before and didn't see them clearly."

Wang Qingyue couldn't help but laugh out loud. She nodded and said, "You have good judgment. Don't trust these seemingly harmless people anymore."

Chen Ming nodded, his gaze firm, and said, "Qingyue, don't worry, I've learned my lesson and will never let her affect my life again."

Wang Qingyue sighed softly, her gaze towards Chen Ming softening slightly.

He said in a low voice, "Chen Ming, I was too emotional just now and didn't understand that woman's intentions. Besides, the business you did before wasn't fake. I shouldn't have been so easily deceived by appearances."

Hearing Wang Qingyue's explanation, he felt a surge of warmth in his heart.

"Thank you, Qingyue," Chen Ming said in a low voice.

Wang Qingyue's lips curled up slightly, a mischievous smile on her face as she looked at Chen Ming. "I didn't expect you to say thank you?"

Chen Ming smiled. He suddenly had a bold idea and looked directly at Wang Qingyue.

"Qingyue, I have an idea. I wonder if you dare to accept the challenge?"

Wang Qingyue raised an eyebrow, curious about Chen Ming's sudden seriousness. She nodded.

"Speak, what's your idea? Let me see what your clever little brain is thinking this time."

Chen Ming blinked, leaned closer to her with a hint of mystery, and slowly said, "If I can turn an internet cafe into a city-wide chain during this month I'm at Shantou University, you'll have to agree to be my girlfriend, okay?"

Wang Qingyue was stunned when she heard this. She did not expect Chen Ming to make such a bold bet.

A hint of surprise and shyness appeared on her face, but she quickly concealed it.

"Your request is really..." She deliberately dragged out the word, then burst into laughter again.

"That's interesting. I'll play with you then."

Chen Ming was overjoyed when he saw that she agreed.

"Okay, it's settled then." Chen Ming smiled confidently, his eyes resolute.

Seeing his demeanor, Wang Qingyue was also inspired by his confidence and secretly cheered him on.

Zhao Rou walked dejectedly through the alley in the night, her heart filled with resentment.

She cursed Chen Ming more than once and also resented Wang Qingyue.

At this moment, several people appeared at one end of the alley. Among them was a fat man, Wang Pangzi.

He stared at Zhao Rou with a cold smile and said, "Miss Zhao, where are you going?"

Zhao Rou panicked and took a few steps back. "Fatty Wang, what are you trying to do?"

Fatty Wang laughed loudly, and his thugs grinned as they surrounded him.

"Miss Zhao, don't be nervous. I just want to ask you to come back and have a good talk with me."

Zhao Rou turned to run away, but the thugs held her back tightly.

She struggled desperately, shouting, "Let me go! What are you doing!"

"It's good that they're not running away." Fatty Wang's smile became even more sinister.

"Let's go back first."

Zhao Rou was dragged into a dark room and looked around in panic.

Just then, her gaze fell upon Mr. Li, a wealthy businessman who sat expressionlessly in his chair.

Fatty Wang shoved Zhao Rou hard, sending her sprawling to the ground, and sneered, "Boss Li, I've brought the person to you."

Boss Li glanced at Zhao Rou and said coldly, "You took the money and still messed things up."

Ignoring her pain, Zhao Rou quickly scrambled to her feet. "Mr. Li, I didn't mean to, I...I..."

"It wasn't intentional?" Mr. Li coldly interrupted her explanation.

"Zhao Rou, what about the things we asked you to do? Why haven't you finished them yet?"

Zhao Rou stammered, "I...I tried my best, but Chen Ming...he's too cunning!"
