Xue Yong finally regained his breath. With Xie Yanyan's help, he stood up in embarrassment. At this time, He Tianran had been helped outside the cage by Cao Aiqing and was sitting safely.
At this point, Xue Yong calmly stopped shouting. If He Tianran hadn't dealt with it in time, his life might have been sealed here. Just thinking about that kind of crisis situation is scary, and until now, His internal organs were still rolling and aching slightly...
Rejecting Xie Yanyan's support, Xue Yong held his stomach and trudged out of the octagonal cage. When he came to He Tianran, he was not as sarcastic or aggressive as he expected. The other party just raised his head and smiled at him.
"..."
Xue Yong was startled, and then he slumped down next to He Tianran. He exhaled and said slowly:
"You won, but this time you wore protective gear..."
"If I didn't wear protective gear, the ambulance and police car would have arrived by now."
He Tianran found joy in suffering, while Xue Yong was speechless.
He looked at He Tianran who couldn't help but rub the hollows of his thighs and knees, then looked at the calm Cao Aiqing sitting on the other side, and complained:
"You two... what have you been through since you entered the University of Hong Kong? Did you put me here just to play with the contrast?"
In Xue Yong's impression, Cao Aiqing is a quiet and obedient girl, and He Tianran is a noob who can be manipulated by others. But after Cao Aiqing slapped him back to reality, He Tianran used another iron fist to make him After walking through the gate of hell for a while, I finally woke up...
It is said that people should treat each other with admiration after three days of separation, but if it comes to these two people after three years of separation, it means that two people have completely changed.
"No matter what, you have met me anyway, but Brother Xiaoyong, your character is still like this..."
He Tianran sighed. Although he was happy to see his old friends, sometimes he still couldn't let go of the airs he should put up. Today's things were settled in one order. Xue Yong replied, and he simply said two words:
"Apologize."
"..."
Even after the fight between the two, the anger between the two disappeared, but what was supposed to come was still coming. Xue Yong, who had vented his anger, began to treat the whole matter rationally. He was a little startled when he heard this, and simply slapped his thigh with both hands. , stood up, bent down facing He Tianran, bowed, and said loudly:
"I'm sorry He Tianran... cough... I was not very sensible when I was in high school. I always bullied you. They say it is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. Today I finally realized that you are a gentleman. I have already lost face when you were in high school. I owe it to you, you hit me and you saved me. Apart from the fact that you were wearing protective gear, which makes me a little dissatisfied, I sincerely apologize to you and hope that this is the end of our feud."
Xie Yanyan on the side saw this scene in her eyes. This was the first time she had seen He Tianran's methods.
Of course, it is more appropriate to say that it is He Tianran's own "ability" than "means".
Xue Yong is a person who is used to being brave and fierce in school. He has many friends around him, all of whom are rich second generation. Usually no one dares to provoke him. Even if he does, he has never subdued anyone, even if it is... He went out to bars and drank with He Yuanchong, but he didn't even say a few compliments on his own initiative. The main reason was that he was too hot-tempered and stubborn, and he wasn't very good at pleasing people.
But now, although there is still some disagreement in his apology, it is not easy for him to do this.
It seems that the communication between boys needs to be more direct and less roundabout to be effective.
Through this incident, Xie Yanyan had a somewhat different impression of the reserved and shy He Tianran.
When He Tianran saw Xue Yong's apology to him, he immediately burst into laughter.
"I...hey...Brother Xiaoyong, I didn't ask you to apologize to me. How old is our matter? Let's just change the story. I never took it to heart..."
"Huh? Then you want me to apologize?"
Faced with Xue Yong's stubbornness, He Tianran could only secretly point to Cao Aiqing on one side, indicating that Xue Yong needed to apologize not to himself, but to the person next to him.
Cao Aiqing looked at He Tianran in surprise. Not only was he still thinking about himself, but another thing that puzzled him was why he could forgive someone so easily...
Unexpectedly, Xue Yong, this big fool, finally came around. His eyes moved back and forth between the two of them and asked:
"No...you two...what's going on now?"
He Tianran was really numbed by him. He really couldn't help but pick up the pot. He rolled his eyes and said: "What you just said was too much for Ai Qing. You should apologize quickly."
"Ah...yes, okay."
Xue Yong just turned his head and pointed it at Cao Aiqing, but before he could speak, he heard the girl coldly refuse:
"No, I don't intend to forgive you. Besides, don't try to judge me or help me define you. How do you know that these words are not too much for me?"
Xue Yong froze in place with a black question mark on his face. He really didn't understand the meaning of these words.
However, before he could figure it out, He Tianran's urging came again in his ears: "Hurry up and apologize, that's it. If you're not happy, why are you holding it back? Everyone can see that you're angry. This requires guessing." ? Apologize!"
Cao Aiqing was even more stern towards Xue Yong: "You care about me so much? I don't need your apology. What you said is not too much. Don't I know it myself? I think it was because I was too afraid of others getting hurt before. I have brought such evil consequences upon myself, and I have left such a thing behind. I don’t need anyone’s apology, and I won’t forgive anyone!”
He Tianran became anxious and yelled at Xue Yong: "No, who are you angry with now? You don't know for your own good? I don't accept the apology. I forgive you if you don't give it. Let's just freeze here. Are you done? Can you move the matter forward? Apologize quickly!"
Cao Aiqing counterattacked Xue Yong: "Do you regard this as a job? Are you pushing it a little bit and rushing to deliver the assignment? Then don't do it. I'm not forcing you. You have to do it yourself."
He Tianran was about to say more, but Xue Yong, who was caught in the middle, quickly raised his hands to the left and right, and said with a look of panic:
"Hey! Hey! Stop, stop, stop, you two, what are you two doing... Damn, hey... cough... I, I, I heard it, please turn your necks and communicate face to face. May I?"
"..."
"..."
As soon as these words came out, the two people who had been tit-for-tat with Xue Yong just now fell silent.
After a while, He Tianran said helplessly: "Brother Xiaoyong, we came to see you today because we have something to ask you. The situation is like this..."
He Tianran briefly explained what happened to Cao Aiqing at the moment. Xue Yong frowned after hearing this, while Xie Yanyan on the side had a strange expression on her face.
The wealthy daughter couldn't help but glance at Cao Aiqing, and without thinking, she caught his eye, causing her to quickly look away...
"Ah... Mr. He, that's why you came here. Hiss... I'm not very clear about this. Although I'm not a good person, I'm not interested at all in this kind of chatting online. If Whoever offends me will be solved in real life, and how can I publicize my scandal online?"
Xue Yong scratched his head. A big-hearted person like him would never think of using public opinion to attack someone.
He Tianran nodded, "So, Ai Qing asked you just now if you had told anyone about this matter. You said that all your buddies in the class knew about it. Then Brother Xiaoyong, tell me, who knows about the confession?" things, and the news will be revealed.”
Xue Yong lowered his head and thought for a while: "It's been two or three years. My original group of friends have left and scattered. I really didn't expect people who could play such a trick. They are all big men. Who can do this?" Keep this kind of thing in mind..."
He Tianran looked embarrassed after being said...
"I really can't think of it?"
Xue Yong shook his head: "I really can't think of it..."
After saying that, he said to Cao Aiqing on the side: "Cao Aiqing, uh... I'm sorry, I said that to you just now, but I was outspoken. I know that when you rejected me, what you said to me was all for me. Okay, I'm sorry, I'm a face-loving person, but I promise, I, Xue Yong, am not an asshole enough to use this method to frame the reputation of a girl's family."
"No need for Xue Yong, the fact that you were able to get admitted to Hong Kong University proves that you listened to what I said to you back then."
Cao Aiqing answered calmly and calmly, while He Tianran on the side fell silent again.
With Xue Yong's apology and guarantee, it seems that the clues that He and Cao have traced this time have been discontinued.
Five minutes later, several people left the gym.
"That's it, let's go back to the University of Hong Kong first, Yanyan, thank you for your hard work today."
He Tianran turned to Xie Yanyan who had been following them and smiled.
The girl shook her head: "It's not troublesome, brother Tianran. If you want to come, just call me. I have classes today in the afternoon, so I'm sorry. I could have walked around the school with you."
"It's okay. If you have a class, go quickly. I saw a look of eagerness on your face just now. I guess you are almost late for class, right?"
"Ah?" Upon hearing this, Xie Yanyan's face really showed a trace of panic, and she hurriedly said: "Well, yes, then...Brother Tianran, Sister Ai Qing and Brother Xiaoyong, I'll leave first. , I dare not delay..."
"Okay, go ahead."
"Bye~"
Xie Yanyan said goodbye to the other three people and turned to leave.
Xue Yong smiled and said: "Ha, when I was a freshman, I was called "Brother Yong" by a junior sister. I really can't bear it. I'm taking advantage of you, Mr. He."
He Tianran joked: "Hehe, brother Xiaoyong still has some reputation. You don't need to take advantage of me. Come on, brother Xiaoyong, let's exchange contact information and keep in touch in the future."
"Ah, Mr. He really embarrassed me, I don't dare."
The two of them exchanged the latest contact information, and Cao Aiqing's eyes followed Xie Yanyan's retreating back. After confirming that they had gone some distance, she reminded him softly:
"She's gone."
"Ah? Who's gone?"
After exchanging numbers, Xue Yong raised his head, confused.
"Wait a moment."
He Tianran passed the WeChat verification sent by Xue Yong with a smile on his face.
Xue Yong then looked in the direction Xie Yanyan was leaving and asked: "Why, didn't you two come to see me this time? I can understand that you two came to me, but what does this have to do with Xie Yanyan? Ah, she didn’t go to the same high school as us.”
He Tianran didn't care about him, but asked Cao Aiqing:
"How did you find out?"
Cao Aiqing glanced at him:
"I have an impression of this girl. At the beginning of winter in your senior year of high school, your brother drove a luxury car to school to pick you up for dinner. There was a girl who came with him, she was her. That was the first time I knew about your family background, so I have a deep impression, and that day you... Tsk, why were you fighting again..."
The girl was a little distressed as she spoke, because He Yuanchong's unscrupulous words offended her that time, which led to He Tianran going up and punching her...
That scene was really similar to today...
Why does he always fight for himself?
He Tianran felt uncomfortable and quickly asked: "What else?"
"And what you just told me in the car, He Yuanchong and Xue..."
Perhaps because she was worried that Xue Yong was also present, she changed her words:
"A friend of yours was led by He Yuanchong to gamble, and he asked you to borrow money after he lost all. If you didn't lie to me about this, then your brother should be malicious towards you, and this girl has a close relationship with your brother. , when you were talking about me just now, the expression on her face was wrong, and she hesitated to speak as if she knew something. So I guess that when you asked her for help, it was not just as simple as asking Xue Yong...
Although you have been selling things off today, you also said something very important. What is happening now is not the same thing as what you did to me before, but there is a common purpose hidden in it. Is this what you are referring to? "
These things were analyzed and listed one by one by Cao Aiqing based on her own memory. It seems that there are some things between her and He Tianran that do not need to be explained clearly...
"Smart."
He Tianran gave a thumbs up.
Cao Aiqing snorted coldly and said sarcastically:
"Not as good as you, after all, you still teach well."
"..."
The monk Xue Yong next to him, who was two feet tall, was confused and interrupted:
"No, you two, can you speak human language? Why is it so hard for me to listen to you two? I feel that there is something about me in your conversation, but I feel that there is not. I should send you to It’s at the school gate, should I go shopping with you again?”
He Tianran put his arms around Xue Yong's shoulders and said with a smile: "Then we must trouble Brother Xiaoyong to accompany us for a walk. After all, you are familiar with this school!"
"That's right, let's go, then I will go shopping with the young master and his wife."
Cao Aiqing was really puzzled. The two people who had been fighting each other just now could now walk hand in hand, but this also made the girl feel relieved.
After all, He Tianran's leg was kicked just now, and there was a slight bump in his walking. If she really wanted to follow Xie Yanyan now, she was still worried about whether He Tianran could walk.
But now he's better. Having Xue Yong following him gives him some support, which is good.
