Longmen Communication University.

Song Ruoxi's dormitory.

"Wow, Xiaoxi's all dressed up so nicely, are you going out on a date?"

"Oh? Who's so lucky? It's hard to guess." Song Ruoxi's roommates asked knowingly, teasing her as they surrounded her. "Could it be some handsome guy from the directing department?"

Song Ruoxi's pretty face turned bright red.

She tied her hair into a neat high ponytail with the ends slightly curled inwards. She wore light makeup, with her eyes subtly elongated and her cheeks adorned with a soft peach blush.

She wore a light pink short-sleeved chiffon blouse with a small bow at the neckline, paired with a white high-waisted long skirt.

This is Lin Ye's favorite style.

When she first appeared in front of Lin Ye, he was completely stunned.

"It's just to attend my old classmate's offline screening of his graduation project," Song Ruoxi hummed.

"That Hannibal movie that caused such a stir a while ago?"

"Your boyfriend is amazing, he's really fooled the netizens."

Song Ruoxi pursed her lips slightly, a hint of smugness in her expression, and whispered, "It's alright."

"You little rascal, now you admit you're my boyfriend, right?"

"Yo yo yo~" one of the roommates imitated Song Ruoxi's smug expression and said in a coquettish voice, "My little sweetheart is doing well~"

The women burst into laughter and playful banter.

It took Song Ruoxi quite a while to finally leave her dormitory and head towards the large screening room in the school's No. 1 teaching building.

As Song Ruoxi walked down the street, she suddenly heard someone call her name. Turning around, she saw a beautiful woman with a cool and aloof demeanor.

The cool and aloof beauty opposite her had her hair styled in a low bun, adorned with an exquisite white flower hair accessory on the side; she wore a gray semi-sheer chiffon blouse with metal buttons and a bow; and a black long skirt with a touch of Lolita style.

"Excuse me, may I ask who you are?"

Song Ruoxi was somewhat puzzled.

"Yin Jianhuan," the cool and beautiful woman spoke softly, a smile playing on her lips, "Long time no see, Song Ruoxi."

"Jianhuan? You've changed so much." Song Ruoxi's eyes widened in disbelief. "I never imagined you'd be so beautiful now."

Yin Jianhuan slowly walked to Song Ruoxi's side, and the two walked forward side by side, chatting about many interesting things in their daily lives along the way.

"Aren't you at Qingdao University? How come you're here?" Song Ruoxi suddenly asked curiously.

"I have something to discuss with Lin Ye," Yin Jianhuan said softly. "It just so happens to be the screening of his graduation project."

"You've come to see Lin Ye...what brings you here?"

Song Ruoxi sensed something was amiss and a faint sense of unease arose in her heart.

It's all too coincidental.

I happened to come on the day of Lin Ye's graduation project screening, and it just so happens to be the same style of clothing that Lin Ye likes the most...

Most importantly, she didn't feel the joy of a long-awaited reunion from Yin Jianhuan; instead, she felt a faint hostility.

"It's nothing, it's a private matter between him and me." Yin Jianhuan smiled faintly, deliberately emphasizing the words "private matter".

Song Ruoxi's face darkened, realizing that Yin Jianhuan had come with ill intentions.

"Lin Ye is my boyfriend, so his business is my business."

Song Ruoxi spoke out to assert sovereignty.

"Is that so?"

Yin Jianhuan said seemingly casually.

"Why didn't you stand up and say that three years ago?"

"You..." Song Ruoxi's body stiffened, and she stopped in her tracks.

"Me? What happened to me?" Yin Jianhuan scoffed, stopped in her tracks, and turned to look at Song Ruoxi.

"What else do you... know?"

"I know a lot more than that," Yin Jianhuan said coldly. "Like your avoidance..."

"That's enough!"

Song Ruoxi abruptly interrupted her, her body trembling slightly from the tension in her emotions.

"Is that enough? I don't think so." Yin Jianhuan's eyes were cold, and her voice was soft, but it was full of undisguised contempt. "Where were you hiding when Lin Ye needed you back then? You left him to face the Song family's warnings alone. You are truly vicious, Song Ruoxi."

Song Ruoxi's face turned deathly pale instantly, her lips moved but she couldn't make a sound.

"You want to be with him, yet you're putting all the pressure on him alone." Yin Jianhuan looked directly into her eyes and said, enunciating each word clearly, "Do you really think you can still casually follow him around like before?"

"You're wrong. From the moment your name appeared in the Song family genealogy, you were no longer on the same path." Yin Jianhuan said indifferently, "You are the high and mighty young lady of the Song family, while he is just an ordinary nobody."

"Many people think he's not good enough for you, but in my opinion, you're not good enough to be with him."

The two stared at each other in silence.

A few minutes later.

"This is between him and me, it has nothing to do with you." Song Ruoxi's mood gradually calmed down, her voice was calm but firm, "I will handle this matter, you don't need to worry about it."

Yin Jianhuan smiled sweetly: "I like him, so his business is my business."

Song Ruoxi remained calm after hearing this, which surprised Yin Jianhuan.

I thought you would be surprised.

"I noticed it a long time ago." Song Ruoxi said expressionlessly, "The way you looked at him in high school was very strange, but I didn't think you posed a threat, so I let him interact with you."

Yin Jianhuan retorted sarcastically without any mercy, "That's why I hate you. You've always treated Lin Ye like your personal possession."

"I thought we would be friends," Song Ruoxi said leisurely.

"It's an act for Lin Ye. After all, he's doing it for my own good, so how could I bear to let him down?"

Amidst their laughter and conversation, the two women launched into another round of sharp exchanges.

Suddenly, Song Ruoxi's phone beeped. She took it out and saw that it was a message from Lin Ye.

The message said that he specially arranged two excellent viewing spots in the middle, and then asked Song Ruoxi when she would arrive.

Song Ruoxi defiantly raised her phone to show the content to Yin Jianhuan, her eyes full of smugness.

But Yin Jianhuan just smiled slightly.

Song Ruoxi frowned slightly, not understanding why she was so calm.

Yin Jianhuan then took out his phone, unlocked the screen, and showed Song Ruoxi a chat page.

It's a chat log with Song Mingzhe.

Song Ruoxi felt a chill run through her body after reading the contents.

"So it was you!" Song Ruoxi quickly realized everything, and she shouted emotionally, "You're the snitch from back then!"

"Yes, I was the one who snitched back then." Yin Jianhuan chuckled lightly, her tone light and airy, carrying a hint of casual mockery. "Otherwise, how would I know so much about your affairs?"

"Aren't you afraid that Song Mingzhe will..."

"I'm not afraid." Yin Jianhuan's tone was cold, a hint of mockery flashing in her eyes. "People like you who are high and mighty don't bother to get your hands dirty."

"It's okay if I really go too far." A near-obsessive madness flashed in Yin Jianhuan's eyes. "That way, no one will compete with me for him anymore."

"He can then belong to me completely."
