No reconciliation, no forgiveness! Mr. Pei leaves with nothing.

"If I were lying, then what about the dog next to you who just said that I cut your clothes? What's going on?"

"Just open your mouth?"

"Don't think you're the only ones with a mouth."

"Song Qingran! If I were you... I wouldn't associate with someone like that, and I should be more discreet... and not show up in front of me, getting in my way."

"Everyone at Imperial University knows we don't get along, but you just have to walk right into my line of fire. Do you really think I'm easygoing?"

Song Qingran said, "I'm sorry, Senior Jiang. I apologize to you on behalf of A Yao. She was just too angry with me."

"As long as you don't mind, I'm willing to do anything you ask."

Xue Ruyao stopped her, "Qingran... don't pay attention to her."

Jiang Hua crossed her arms, looking down at her with disdain. "Kneel down and apologize to me!"

Xue Ruyao: "Jiang Hua! Don't go too far!"

Jiang Hua exclaimed, "Ah! You've been going against me for so long, and now you realize I went too far?"

"If you can't afford to mess with me, then don't mess with me!"

"Now you're looking at me with a regretful expression. Anyone who didn't know better would think I bullied you first."

Xue Ruyao bit her lip and clenched her fists. Jiang Hua watched her actions and her anger subsided a bit. In terms of arguing, Jiang Hua had never lost, but when she encountered this kind of person, she felt as if she had offended some kind of filth, which made her feel disgusted.

"Jiang Hua, we're all classmates, let's just leave it at that. Why make things so awkward? Besides, it's not good for you either," the teacher beside her advised.

Jiang Hua was never one to be swayed by either soft or hard tactics, so this sentence had no effect on her. "You think it's all over just because you say so? She just scolded me for so long, and I think she was quite happy about it. Hmm... the police are on their way, let them handle whatever they want."

The moment Jiang Hua turned around, Song Qingran suddenly knelt down in front of her, causing everyone to gasp and stare wide-eyed at the scene.

Xue Ruyao looked at Song Qingran and tried to pull her up quickly, "Qingran, what are you doing! We didn't do anything wrong, get up." As she spoke, she started to cry herself.

"I'm sorry, we shouldn't have misunderstood you first."

"I apologize to you on behalf of Ayao."

Shen Bao'er was so shocked by this scene that she couldn't speak.

Jiang Hua stopped and slowly turned around, her expression unreadable. "Alright, get up. Anyone who didn't know better would think I did something to you."

"If she loves kneeling to people so much, she might really have been a palace maid in her past life."

Then Jiang Hua said to Bao'er, "I'll wait for you outside."

Shen Bao'er nodded.

As Jiang Hua walked out of the dressing room, a figure stood face to face with her in a fire escape corridor. "Are you bullying me again?"

Jiang Hua stepped forward, standing only three steps away from Pei Zhan, her eyes meeting his deep gaze. "Yes, I bullied the woman you love, and you want to get revenge on me?"

Seeing that he remained unmoved, unable to discern the expression in his eyes or the slight furrowing of his brows, Jiang Hua felt utterly disheartened. "Hurry up and go in to comfort her, lest she become unhappy and threaten to break up with you again."

As Jiang Hua walked past him, in that instant, he grabbed her wrist. Jiang Hua's subconscious instinct was to raise her hand to slap him, but Pei Zhan grabbed her wrist instead.

"Is the young lady... giving up on the visa?"

He always seemed to know what could best suppress her.

When the topic of visas came up, Jiang Hua suppressed her anger and said, "Let me go, you country bumpkin."

She struggled, and Pei Zhan loosened his grip, allowing Jiang Hua to break free.

"Pei Zhan, I hope that after tonight, we... will never meet again in this lifetime."

Thinking of this, she felt much better. Jiang Hua reached out and patted his face, "No matter what, we were husband and wife. Let's just say goodbye now."

"Goodbye!" Jiang Hua blinked and left in high spirits.

Jiang Hua did receive the news that her visa application had been successfully processed.

And she'll be able to get it tonight.

Pei Zhan knew perfectly well that Jiang Hua had booked a flight for 1 a.m.

However, on the other side, Zuo Xiangnan found a set of clothes of similar size for Song Qingran to change into.

Little did she know, in a hidden corner, she slowly emerged only after Jiang Hua had left.

Zhou Yan, "You're just going to let her go so easily?"

Pei Zhan took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, pulled out one, lit it, and took a drag. "Every wrong has its perpetrator, and every debt its debtor."

"Jiang Weiguo alone is enough."

Zhou Yan, "Not enough!"

"I want the entire Jiang family to be buried with Ah Xu."

The wisps of smoke obscured Pei Zhan's deep eyes as the wind blew, and the smoke quickly dissipated. "A-Xu's heart is in her body. I won't let anything happen to her."

"One is from the Jiang family, and the other is Jiang Weiguo. They are too greedy... and they are likely to suffer the consequences."

Zhou Yan knew that he was still thinking about A Xu. Zhou Yan didn't know whether she should be happy or sad. Would his heart never let anyone else get close again?

Zhou Yan: "What about you? When are you planning to divorce Jiang Hua?"

divorce…

Since Pei Zhan got involved himself and started controlling everything, he seems to have never had a single thought of divorcing her.

Pei Zhan did not answer Zhou Yan's question directly; he gave a vague answer and left.

The school anniversary celebration began with the opening dance of Song Qingran's ancient style dance.

Jiang Hua sat in the second row, while the first row consisted of school leaders and invited shareholders.

Pei Zhan was also there. He was representing the Jiang Group, so he naturally sat in that seat. However, Jiang Hua happened to be sitting in the seat behind him.

All the stage lights were turned off. When a beam of light fell on the girl in the middle of the stage, she hugged herself tightly like a bird. When the music started, the fledgling bird began to spread its wings and dance. Song Qingran's posture was light and graceful, and every movement was indeed very good.

Jiang Hua glanced sideways at Pei Zhan's reaction, noticing that he was watching intently, his gaze focused...

Jiang Hua glanced at it, feeling irritated, and picked up her phone to see that the group chat was full of messages about arranging get-togethers.

Just a few minutes later, Jiang Hua was playing a mobile game to pass the time when thunderous applause erupted…

After finishing her dance, Song Qingran rushed backstage.

Xue Ruyao: "Qingran, why are you in such a hurry?"

Song Qingran said, "Chairman Jiang wants me to attend a banquet with Mr. Pei. I'm in a hurry to change my clothes so I can go with him."

Xue Ruyao: "Then slow down."

The next program is Shen Bao'er's. Xue Ruyao looked at a corner and smiled smugly to herself.

Who told you to bully Qingran first?

After the performance, Pei Zhan prepared to leave.

"Bao'er, something's wrong! Xiaoxiao has a stomachache, vomiting and diarrhea. They've already called an ambulance to take her to the hospital, but what are we going to do if we're short of violinists?"

Shen Bao'er sat next to Jiang Hua, eating snacks with her mouth stuffed full: "What's the rush? Hua Hua can take over."
