After talking with Song Lingge, Jing Chu suddenly became a little worried about himself.

He'd wanted to beat up someone like Fang Guanghua for a long time.

Therefore, Jingchu has no regrets about taking this action.

Even if Fang Guanghua really comes to cause trouble for him, it doesn't matter. Does Song Lingge think she would just stand by and watch him die?

Even if she refuses to help him, Qiao Nansheng will not abandon him.

But now that Song Lingge has said so much to him, he suddenly feels that perhaps he really was too impulsive.

If it weren't for his impulsiveness, his feelings for Li Meimei would still be a secret.

Song Lingge was not a talkative person, and Jing Chu did not believe that her story would become widely known.

However, Qiao Nansheng would certainly know that he would have a hard time getting past him alone.

If Qiao Nansheng does this, then I'll just ignore him...

Upon thinking this, Jing Chu felt even more anxious and uneasy.

Sigh! In the end, I still can't make my sister-in-law angry.

Jing Chu is a straightforward person. Realizing this problem, he immediately went to find Song Lingge.

He first went to the teachers' apartment, but couldn't find anyone there. He then went to the library, but after searching the entire school without success, he reluctantly went to "Delicious Songxiang".

Zhang Xiuxiu was very surprised to see him, saying that Song Lingge hadn't come back after going to see him.

Jingchu was stunned.

Where else can Song Lingge go?

Survival instincts kicked in, and Jingchu remembered an old saying: "You can run away from the monk, but you can't run away from the temple."

"Delicious Songxiang" belongs to Song Lingge, so how could she not come back?

In an effort to ease tensions with Song Lingge, Jing Chu worked tirelessly, bustling around the shop.

My main point is that if I behave well, my sister-in-law will definitely say a few good words for me.

Song Lingge and Yu Shaofen returned to the store before the evening rush hour.

Upon seeing Jing Chu, both she and Yu Shaofen were startled, unsure of his purpose in being there.

However, Yu Shaofen completely ignored Jing Chu and walked straight towards Zhang Xiuxiu and Xiao Jiang.

Song Lingge also intended to ignore it, but Jing Chu stopped her.

Yu Shaofen's dismissive attitude made Jing Chu feel uncomfortable for a moment.

He would rather Yu Shaofen glare at him and scold him now than ignore him like a stranger.

However, he has more important things to do right now, so he'll save Yu Shaofen for later!

"Lingge, don't be angry. I was wrong this afternoon. I didn't mean it," Jing Chu said with a smile, but he didn't think before he spoke. It was too perfunctory.

But it wasn't his fault. Yu Shaofen's attitude made him panic, and he momentarily forgot what he was supposed to say, only thinking about apologizing as soon as possible.

Regardless of what kind of apology is offered, as long as the attitude is there, there's nothing wrong with it.

But Song Lingge wasn't someone who could be easily fooled. She rolled her eyes at Jing Chu and said indifferently, "Just saying it without thinking? Is that all?"

Song Lingge's tone was calm, but undercurrents were surging. Jing Chu felt that he could no longer afford to be distracted. Even if he focused all his efforts on dealing with Song Lingge, he might not necessarily get away with it.

At this point, how could he possibly have any thoughts about Yu Shaofen?

So, Jing Chu pulled himself together, composed himself, and said, "Ling Ge, I'm so sorry. I acted inappropriately, but I absolutely didn't mean to hurt you..."

"Stop talking," Song Lingge interrupted Jing Chu.

He may not care about his reputation, but Yu Shaofen certainly does!

We can't let him make a scene here and embarrass Yu Shaofen.

Besides, Jing Chu was Qiao Nansheng's best friend.

"Go do your work, I'm not paying you today!" Song Lingge instructed him.

Since Song Lingge gave such an order, it meant she wouldn't hold it against him, and Jing Chu happily went off to get busy.

Whether or not there is a wage is not important; Jingchu genuinely does not want to lose Song Lingge and her group of good friends.

Yu Shaofen and the others sat together peeling garlic.

Song Lingge walked over.

Yu Shaofen remained calm as she struggled with the garlic in her hand.

Zhang Xiuxiu, however, couldn't contain herself and asked, "Did you find Jing Chu this afternoon? What did you talk about with him?"

Song Lingge did not answer directly, but asked instead, "When did Jing Chu come to the store?"

As Zhang Xiuxiu was recalling, Xiao Jiang replied, "We arrived more than an hour earlier than you."

Zhang Xiuxiu nodded quickly: "Yes, around that time. They'll ask if you're there when they arrive."

Xiao Jiang added, "He was especially diligent today, always looking for something to do. We had nothing to do but peel garlic, which is already for the day after tomorrow."

Song Lingge glanced at Jing Chu, feeling both annoyed and amused.

In the evening, after there were few customers in the shop, Song Lingge and the others went back to their dormitory early.

As usual, they were escorted by Jingchu.

Song Lingge and the other two girls walked in front, while Jing Chu followed behind alone.

Zhang Xiuxiu was unaware of the conversation that afternoon, but seeing that Song Lingge and Yu Shaofen ignored Jing Chu, she also ignored him.

When they reached the fork in the road, Yu Shaofen said, "Lingge, Xiuxiu and I are going back to the dormitory. You..."

It seemed that Yu Shaofen didn't want to be with Jing Chu, so Song Lingge thoughtfully replied, "Okay, let's part ways here so we don't both have to walk too much."

After saying that, Yu Shaofen and Zhang Xiuxiu walked quickly toward the girls' dormitory without even glancing at Jing Chu.

After watching them leave, Song Lingge turned and walked away, still not looking at Jing Chu.

However, she knew that Jing Chu would definitely catch up.

"Lingge, did I make Shaofen angry?" Jing Chu caught up as expected.

Is there even a question to ask?

"What do you think?"

"I talked to her about it last night, and she didn't seem angry!"

Song Lingge was speechless. She glared at him and said, "Don't you know how much she likes you? She's just being considerate of you and doesn't want to ruin things."

Jing Chu dared not argue, but thought to himself: Isn't this what it means to tear off the mask of civility? He treated him as if he didn't exist.

"However, when I was chatting with you this afternoon, Shaofen was hiding in the bushes," Song Lingge said casually.

"So she heard everything? And she knows I like Li Mei..."

Jing Chu was shocked, so he spoke loudly, but fortunately Song Lingge stopped him with her icy gaze, preventing him from revealing Li Meimei's name.

If someone overheard them, they'd probably all be making headlines on the campus gossip forum.

Song Lingge really didn't want to be discussed because of these melodramatic gossips anymore.

Considering his own future and Qiao Nansheng's, reputation was very important and had to be protected.

She certainly doesn't want future interviews to be filled with these melodramatic gossip stories from her university days.

That's too tragic.

Therefore, from now on, we must protect our own reputation, including Qiao Nansheng's.

"I won't tell anyone about this, and I doubt Shao Fen will either. So you'd better keep it to yourself as well," Song Lingge said coldly in a low voice.

At this moment, Jing Chu would not care about Song Lingge's attitude, because the worse her attitude was, the more it showed that she regarded Jing Chu as a friend and was thinking of him.

"Okay, okay, I understand," Jing Chu replied servilely.
