Chapter 31: Fragmented

  Han Yue, instead of saying you're considerate, it's better to say you're too weak! From now on, I'll do all the things you can't or don't want to do!

  Shadow Charm

  Mr. Jane's group! He knew it long ago, so he delayed the time when handling the entry procedures, just to arrange everything one step ahead.

  Su Yi Xiang saw Han Yue and was shocked, raising an eyebrow: "Can you tell me the reason now? You and Han Yang..."

  "Hanyang is my brother." Han Yue's eyes flashed, and her tone was light as a cloud, "I made a bet with my brother to investigate him in school for a semester."

  "Survey?"

  "Yes, he was hiding something from me. I said I would definitely find out. It seems I lost this time. I didn't expect him to go to such great lengths to silence me." Han Yue sighed. Yes, he hid it so thoroughly. But no matter how well he hid it, I still found out in the end.

  "What about the Jane Group?" Su Yi Xiang was somewhat skeptical. Was this lineup really that big of a deal?

  "My brother's friend, so rich and so arrogant!" Han Yue said with great indignation. "If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have lost." Xing, no matter what, I will keep my promise and return, but there are things that you can't stop me from doing!

  "Yi Xiang, it seems like you've broken the rules. And the person who leaked the information to you will be expelled too." Han Yue said this intentionally, diverting the topic.

  "Little Moon, don't!" Su Yi Xiang was shocked and hurriedly laughed it off, "You're the one who told me to investigate, you mustn't spill the beans."

  "I can keep quiet, but if you leak it yourself, that's none of my business." Han Yue nonchalantly waved her hand to pardon him.

  "That's good, I don't have anything to do with it anyway." Su Yixiang let out a sigh of relief. "That Hansheng... Ah, never mind, forget it." Su Yixiang shook his head and waved his hand at Han Yue, indicating that he wouldn't ask any more questions.

  That's good, they don't know, and it will be less of an obstacle for our plan. Han Yue smiled: "Let's go in."

  "I was just about to go out and look for you, someone is waiting for you." Xuan Qing opened the door, pushed his glasses up and smiled, "Someone has brought wine for you, no need for me to keep yelling at Xiao Er to bring dishes anymore."

  Su Yi Xiang beside him listened with a bewildered expression, but Han Yue didn't find it strange, smiled and walked in by himself.

  The person behind him pushed his glasses and followed with a strange smile. Oh, Jane Group, guessed it right, should be related to Hansxing.

  Han Yue was pulled by Ye Xue in front of a person as soon as she entered the door.

  "Miss Han Yue, would you mind signing this?"

  The bartender in front of the counter. Han Yue took a look at the things on the table, which was a bottle of wine worth tens of thousands: "May I ask who sent it?" Han Yue raised an eyebrow and asked after signing.

  "You'll know later." The bartender smiled apologetically at Han Yue and left the private room.

  Who else could it be? I still have other acquaintances here. That bottle of wine - Cold Moon turned around and saw Su Yi Xiang and Lai Huo Ling carefully examining the bottle of wine.

  "What a great wine, it's a rare edition! Xiao Yue, someone actually sent you this kind of wine." Su Yi Xiang repeatedly praised.

  "Go ahead and taste it." Lai Huo Ling didn't know much about wine, but he trusted Su Yi Xiang's judgment. "Xiao Yue, open the wine."

  These two people, Han Yue shook his head and directly opened the wine. Wine is a good thing, drinking it can temporarily forget the pain, since you can forget, then temporarily indulge yourself.

  The private room was soon bustling again. Han Yue held her wine glass, looking at Ye Xue across from her, and downed the wine in her hand cup after cup. Han Yue was already drunk, earlier all the team members came to toast her, she didn't refuse and accepted them one by one.

  "A year later we meet again, Little Moon, shouldn't we intentionally have a drink?"

  It's Xuan Qing, this wine can't be left undrunk. Han Yue smiled and nodded, taking a sip of the wine.

  "Little Moon." Jing Rong could no longer bear it, snatched the second cup and drank it all in one gulp. "You stop drinking!"

  Han Yue looked at Jing Wei and finally compromised, apologetically looking at Xuan Qing: "I won't be able to drink with you today, let's make up for it next time."

  Xuan Qing took a glance at Jing Hui and nodded before returning to his own position.

  Han Yue sat silently for a moment, then smiled faintly: "Jing Rui, don't worry, I can still drink, and there are important things I haven't done yet." After that, he walked to Ye Xue and Su Yitian.

  "Xue Er, I respect you, thank you for always taking care of me like a sister, these days I'm really happy." Han Yue slightly hooked the corner of her mouth, warm, light, with a gentle smile.

  Ye Xue couldn't drink, symbolically took a sip, and seeing Han Yue finish her drink in one gulp, advised: "Little Moon, you should drink less."

  "Here's to the second cup, Su Yitian. Thank you for helping me multiple times. Thank you for appearing in Ye Xue's world; she loves you so much that I respect you too." Still with a subtle curve of his lips, but the smile at the corner of his mouth became even more pronounced.

  Su Yi Tian looked at Han Yue and although he found this speech a bit strange, he still accepted the toast.

  Han Yue blinked her eyes, and the corners of her eyebrows were filled with a warm smile: "To the newlyweds, I wish you happiness, may it last forever."

  Ye Xue was holding a wine cup and was about to take a sip when Su Yitian took it from her with a pained expression and drank it for her.

  Han Yue looked at them, the smiling corners of her mouth suddenly stiffened, and a hint of hidden sorrow emerged in her dazed expression. Then her eyes blinked fiercely, the hand holding the wine cup tilted slightly, spilling wine everywhere, and the cup shattered into pieces on the ground.

  Ye Xue, our friendship ends here, just like the broken and scattered cups on the ground, can never be restored.

  The sudden sound made the surroundings quiet instantly, and everyone looked towards Han Yue.

  "Sorry, I think I've had too much to drink. Don't disturb everyone's fun, continue." Han Yue smiled and squatted down to pick up the broken pieces.

  "Leave it alone, someone will clean it up."

  It was Su Yi Tian's voice, he bent down to help her. Han Yue's hand paused, and then suddenly retracted, the shards scratched her fingers, and blood seeped out from the tips.

  "Xiao Yue, let me take a look." Ye Xue hurriedly squatted down to examine her injury. Han Yue originally wanted to withdraw her hand but it was caught by another hand instead.

  "How careless." Jing Rong held her hand, his eyes filled with pain and regret, gently licking the blood off her fingers, naturally refusing the handkerchief handed over by Su Yitian.

  "Jinghao, I still want to drink. Why am I so sober no matter how much I drink?" Han Yue lowered her head, having drunk so much wine, yet she still remembered, and even grew more resentful.

  "You're drunk." Jing Rong thought of pulling her into his arms, but Han Yue's body leaned to the side and grabbed the wine on the table, pouring it down her throat.

  "Xiao Yue, that's enough, stop drinking." Jing Yi snatched the cup and put it back on the table.

  "Hehe... Jing Pei, why aren't you drinking this time? I thought you'd keep me company. Han Yue is already drunk, but those memories just can't be forgotten. He himself has forgotten, but another him remembers very clearly."

  "Alright, from now on, you drink one cup and I'll drink two." Jing Rui frowned, opened a bottle of wine, filled two cups to the brim, and drank them down in one gulp.

  "Jing Hui, you'll be the first to fall down, your drinking capacity is rotten." Han Yue didn't stop due to Jing Hui's actions and continued drinking cup after cup.

  Jing Hao, I'm sorry, I couldn't control myself, just let me get drunk this once.

  When he finished drinking the sixth cup, Jing Teng suddenly covered his stomach and a painful expression appeared on his face.

  "What's wrong?" Han Yue was lying on him and had been drunk for a while, but when she saw his pain, she suddenly became sober again.

  "Xiao Yue, I have stomach problems and can't drink alcohol."

  "Stomach trouble?" Han Yue said vaguely, opened her eyes to think for a moment, then suddenly bent down, and sweat beads covered her forehead. "I seem to have stomach pain too... it hurts so much."

  Idiot, what's with the "seems like"! Jing immediately stood up and left the private room.

  "Hey, are they going to run away with their tails between their legs?" Su Yi Xiang was still drinking and arguing with Lai Huo Ling and a few other team members.

  Su Yi stood up: "It's eleven o'clock, let's stop here for today." After finishing speaking, she took Ye Xue and left the private room.

  After vomiting violently, Jing Rui supported Han Yue, who was already drunk and couldn't stand steadily, to the long chair by the side, letting her lean on him weakly, lifted his hand to gently cover her face, his fingers delicately tracing her eyebrows and eyes, softly sighing: "How can you torture yourself like this."

  "You're kidding me." Han Yue spat it out and became a bit more sober, tilted her head, and dodged Jing Rong's hand.

  Huh? Jing Hao was taken aback, unsure of what was going on.

  "You're deceiving me, right? Jing Rui doesn't have a stomach problem, he was just tricking me earlier when he said it hurt." Han Yue murmured softly.

  Jing Hao smiled lightly and acknowledged the lie: "Mm, sorry."

  The cold moon closed her eyes and leaned on his shoulder: "It's great that you won't hurt... but I'm really in pain."

  Ying Mei, you've had enough for tonight, it's time to go back.

  Don't... humph, let you come back and you will only be soft-hearted again.

  You underestimate me.

  Han Yue's body suddenly shook violently, and after a moment of stillness, tears burst forth, and her words became disjointed and fragmented.

  "Why... why is it them... her... why did I have to meet her." Han Yue's face buried into Jing Huan's chest, "I... hate her... I want revenge against her, brother... I want to avenge you."
