Chapter 106: Secretly Injured Spirit

  Zhou Zhanling was taken aback by Yu Mohan's words, and he was also greatly surprised. He had longed for her to treat him like this before, but at that time she had disappointed him again and again. Now it seemed that she had really changed, learned to turn back, and learned to cherish. Wasn't this what he had wanted all along?

  People are easily moved, towards the people they used to have a crush on, towards the people they deeply liked, it's impossible to resist the palpitations. It wasn't until now that Zhou Zhanling discovered he still had a heartbeat, one that quickened for a smile.

  "In the future, I'll always wait for you to walk home together after school." Yu Menghan said with a smile as she walked in front of Zhou Zhanling. Her hands were white and delicate as she held onto Zhou Zhanling's hand, "From now on, I won't be so stubborn anymore, we can work hard together, okay?"

  Zhou Zhanling was suddenly at a loss for what to do, he could feel the temperature of the hand holding his, and that little bit of warmth.

  He paused for a moment, Zhou Zhanling nodded slightly and smiled faintly, "Let's go back, or we'll be late."

  "Good!" Yu Mohan smiled and her face lit up, gripping Zhou Zhanling's hand even tighter.

  Zhou Zhanling smiled faintly and also grasped Yu Menghan's hand, the two people then walked forward together. The long school path, the two shadows under the sunlight became even clearer.

  At this time, no one would turn back. If they did, they would definitely see the girl walking out from behind the fig tree with a gentle smile on her face, but tears in her eyes. Her hands grasped the school bag even tighter, and her fingers had turned slightly white.

  It wasn't until much later that Luo Xuanjie finally walked out of the school gate, and when he saw the girl standing on the campus path, he couldn't help but be shocked, hastily walking over to call out: "Fang Shuni, why haven't you gone home yet?"

  Fang Shuni heard the voice behind her, extremely surprised and even more fearful, fearing that her weakness would be seen by others. She hastily raised her right hand to wipe away tears, but did not turn around to look at the person behind her.

  "She's gone back!" Fang Shuni seemed to have always been unaware of how to communicate with her classmates, perhaps not that she couldn't, but just didn't want to get in touch. She was a person who liked to be alone.

  Fang Shuni finished speaking and strode forward with big steps. Luo Xuanjie felt a wave of depression, and he didn't know why, but this was the first time he had spoken to this girl. It's also strange that such an ordinary and unremarkable girl who doesn't fit in would become Zhou Zhanling's girlfriend. Luo Xuanjie couldn't understand it, if Ge Jinghang hadn't said something about it, he really wouldn't have believed it.

  Watching Fang Shuni slowly walk away, Luo Xuanjie helplessly shook his head. He was relieved that Zhou Zhanling had been dumped by her, otherwise he really didn't know how to communicate with this girl who seemed to have no presence at all.

  The next day, when school was over, Luo Xuanjie didn't stay behind to let Zhou Zhanling teach him how to do his homework. He also packed up his bag and walked out of the classroom with Zhou Zhanling.

  When Luo Xuanjie walked out of the classroom, he couldn't help but turn his head to look back at Fang Shuni, who was still sitting in her own seat, motionless, as if she didn't intend to go home immediately. However, this was indeed the case, as many times Fang Shuni would be the first to arrive in the classroom and sit in her seat, not entering the eyes of other classmates. When class was dismissed or school was over, she would simply sit in her own seat, watching as her classmates left before she would leave herself. As a result, there weren't many classmates who liked to play with her together.

  Luojun Jie couldn't help but let out a sigh, and hastily patted Zhou Zhanling's shoulder, asking: "Ah Zhan, have you really given up?"

  "What's wrong?" Zhou Zhanling glanced over his head and looked at Luo Xuanjie with a bad smile.

  Luoxuan Jie raised an eyebrow, still with a lazy look on his face, "Still trying to play dumb with me? Of course it's Fang Shuni!"

  Once again hearing Fang Shuni's name, Zhou Zhanling's eyes dimmed, and he turned his head to look at the road ahead, no longer paying attention to Luo Xuanjie.

  Luojunjie saw that Zhou Zhanling was ignoring him, he naturally felt a bit bored in his heart, helplessly shook his head, and then strolled along beside Zhou Zhanling.

  As he walked down the stairs, Luo Xuanjie seemed to have thought of something again and hastily asked Zhou Zhanling: "Did Xiaoge say that Fang Shuni was the one who proposed breaking up?"

  "Ajie, you're gossiping!" At this moment, Zhou Zhanling didn't want to mention Fang Shuni at all. Although for him, Fang Shuni was a very special existence, she was the first person who made him feel the happiness of being liked. It seemed that he had also slowly gotten used to her liking, so when she withdrew, he felt uncomfortable instead.

  Luojun Jie heard Zhou Zhanling say this, and naturally felt that he had gossiped too much. According to reason, he should not want Zhou Zhanling and Fang Shuni to be together, but for some reason, he suddenly felt that Fang Shuni was also a very good girl, like a snow lotus blooming on the mountain waist, quietly beautiful without being noticed.

  If Luo Xuanjie wasn't mistaken, then the posture he saw at the school gate yesterday should be Fang Shuni wiping away her tears. That appearance was really heartbreaking, a girl who only knew how to cry behind people's backs had a very simple world, they also needed care and concern.

  Luoxuan Jie shook his head and said: "No way, I've been buried in books lately, and it's not easy to discover Fang Shuni's existence, so I couldn't help but yy for a moment."

  "Nothing, I don't want to mention these things again," Zhou Zhanling said as the two of them walked to the stairs of the teaching building.

  From far away at the school gate, you could see Yu Menghan standing there, her gaze falling squarely on Zhou Zhanling's body.

  Lu Xuanjie saw Yu Mohan and couldn't help but look at Zhou Zhanling, only to find that Zhou Zhanling's gaze was also on Yu Mohan. Lu Xuanjie couldn't help but frown, hastily pulling Zhou Zhanling's school uniform from behind, asking in a low voice: "Don't tell me you're back with Yu Mohan!"

  Zhou Zhanling turned his head back, looked at Luo Xuanjie with a faint gaze, nodded and replied: "Yes, we're together again."

  "Alas..." Luo Xuanjie sighed, "Your emotions are really complicated, one moment it's Fang Shuni, the next it's Yu Mohan. I don't know what you're doing. Weren't you deceiving Fang Shuni's feelings just the other day?"

  Upon hearing the word "deception", Zhou Zhanling hung his head in shame, although he was unwilling to admit it, but this seemed to be true, he had been deceiving her all along, and also deceiving himself.

  "Luoxuan Jie couldn't help but shake his head, 'No wonder yesterday when I was the last one to go home after school, I saw Fang Shuni secretly crying at the school gate. It turns out you bullied her!'"

  "What did you say?" Zhou Zhanling turned his head back in surprise, looking at Luo Xuanjie in astonishment.
