Meeting you in autumn

Chen Fang had no choice but to suppress his anger and follow Chen Feng into the classroom with a disgruntled expression.

Jing Yi, who went to Xinxin Villa after leaving the old house last night, locked herself in a dark room as soon as she got back, curling up in a corner like a wounded little animal.

The silence was broken by a "ding," but Jing Yi ignored it.

After a while, there were a few more "dings". Jing Yi picked up his phone and saw a message from Guan Yu. He thought he would subconsciously reply, but he didn't. Instead, he turned it off and finally turned off his phone.

Seeing his disheveled state, he didn't know how to face her. He felt unworthy of her; she was so pure. Yet, he couldn't help wanting to get closer and possess her.

The next morning, Jing Yi slowly opened her eyes and found herself lying in bed, feeling weak all over.

"You're awake?" A man dressed in a white shirt and black pants looked relieved when he saw Jing Yi wake up.

"Why are you here?" Jing Yi asked in a slightly hoarse voice.

"If I hadn't come, you'd be on your deathbed by now, you know that? Last night you had a high fever and were unconscious, plus your wound got infected. If Uncle Fang hadn't noticed something was wrong and called me, you'd be dead by now."

"The slap mark on your face, the wound on your forehead, and the scars on your body were all done by that bastard, right? And according to my investigation, he's been beating you for quite some time now."

"Don't worry, your uncle will avenge you. How dare the mere Jing family treat you so cruelly? They simply don't respect the Fu family at all."

Fu Li grew angrier as he spoke, his eyes blazing with fury as he unleashed a torrent of curses that sent chills down everyone's spine. His voice, filled with uncontrollable rage, seemed to set the entire world ablaze.

"No, I'll do it myself"

"You're not allowed to lay a hand on me. I'm going to do it myself and make Jing Shengtian apologize to my mother." Jing Yi, who was originally weak, said with a solemn expression after hearing Fu Li's words.

"Sigh, okay, but don't hurt yourself. I'll go out first." Jing Yi knew this child's temperament well; he was as stubborn as his sister. He shook his head helplessly.

"Um"

"Also, Jing Yi, you must remember that the Fu family in City A will always be your strong support, your home, and your safe haven." Just as they reached the door, Fu Li, as if remembering something, said this earnestly to Jing Yi before walking out.

Hearing Fu Li's words, Jing Yi's eyes reddened. Suddenly thinking of Guan Yu, he realized something and quickly picked up his phone, only to find that Guan Yu had sent him many messages, but he hadn't replied to a single one. Jing Yi was filled with regret and self-blame.

So he quickly sent two messages to Chen Fang, then got up, put on his school uniform, and hurriedly went downstairs.

He didn't even glance at Fu Li sitting on the sofa, and immediately grabbed his schoolbag and ran out the door.

"Jing Yi, where are you going? You're not fully recovered yet," Fu Li called out worriedly as he watched Jing Yi rush over in a panic.

However, by the time he said this, Jing Yi had already disappeared.

Looking at Jing Yi, was he planning to go to school? Fu Li wondered why he hadn't noticed how much this kid loved studying before.

Throughout the morning, Guan Yu didn't concentrate on a single class, spending the rest of the time in a daze and distracted, mostly worried about Jing Yi. Even when Shen Jia came over to call her, she didn't respond.

"Guan Yu~" Shen Jia suddenly raised her voice after calling out many times without getting a response.

"Ah~ Jiajia, what are you doing? You scared me!" Guan Yu was startled by the sudden increase in volume and immediately came to her senses.

Shen Jia moved closer to Guan Yu, her brows furrowed slightly, as if searching for something on Guan Yu's face with a puzzled look.

"Jiajia, what are you doing?" Guan Yu immediately pushed Shen Jia away, quite puzzled by Shen Jia's behavior.

"I've called you three times already, Xiaoyu," Shen Jia said, pointing to her fingers, speechless.

"Ah, oh, maybe I didn't hear you."

"Fine, I'll reluctantly forgive you."

At this moment, Chen Fang walked towards the two of them with a happy expression.
