After their confessions were rejected, they regretted it for the rest of their lives.

Is he different?

Hearing Zhou Juzi's words, Liang Na almost cursed.

"well--"

With a long sigh,

The two sat cross-legged on the bed.

Liang Na stared at the guy in front of her, pursing her lips and lowering her head, her toes occasionally curling up.

He looked distracted, like a child who had made a mistake.

Isn't that jerk who's giving me the silent treatment for no reason the one with the problem?

"Go ask him for an explanation tomorrow. If he doesn't give you one, break up with him..."

"..."

Zhou Juzi has doubts about whether Xia Weichan is truly in a romantic relationship with her.

There's no doubt that Xia Weichan had no intention of getting involved in that direction at all.

Moreover, she has no right to break up with him.

Zhou Juzi shook her head and whispered:

"He's really good to me..."

"..."

Liang Na rubbed her forehead again, letting out a sigh of relief. This was the most bizarre reason she had ever heard in her life.

She asked helplessly:

"Could it be that you were the one who pursued him first?"

"no..."

"Am I playing a game called 'Turtle Soup'? Do I have to decipher it bit by bit?"

Liang Na was starting to get fed up with Zhou Juzi's slow, toothpaste-like way of chatting.

She was puzzled. Why was her boyfriend being so mysterious?

It's not like high school compulsory education anymore; college students can freely date, so why are you afraid of reporting it to the teacher?!

"Actually... I just wanted to know more about him, but I couldn't get the information out of him."

At this moment, Zhou Juzi finally spoke up about what was bothering her the most.

It seems that Xia Weichan was the only one who knew about her from beginning to end, while she herself knew nothing.

There were many things being kept from her, which made Zhou Juzi feel like an outsider from beginning to end.

She had always relied on Xia Weichan, but there was never anything she could ask of him.

Especially during the day, it was emphasized again that their relationship had only lasted three months...

"He didn't tell you...?"

Liang Na looked at Zhou Juzi's increasingly gloomy expression; it was truly rare to see this guy with such an expression.

She didn't understand:

"I'm just wondering, based on my guess and your recent behavior, you two have only been dating for less than a week, right?"

"...Five days."

"Then isn't that even more wrong?"

Liang Na extended her palm, making Ju Zi look up at her.

"Only five days and he's already ignoring you? What a complete bastard!"

"He isn't!"

At this moment, Zhou Juzi's voice rose. She bit her lip lightly and watched as Liang Na shifted away somewhat evasively.

The girl then realized she had been a little emotional. She pinched her cheek, just like Xia Weichan.

"Actually, he's a really nice person...and he's helped me a lot. He was the one who helped me become a trainee."

"Haha...I see. He's a really nice guy."

Liang Na pursed her lips and gave a dry laugh twice, then thought for a moment and said:

"Why don't you take the initiative and ask him out for a meal?"

"I've eaten with him so many times..."

"That's not what I meant. I meant drinking."

Liang Na twirled her fingers and said with great experience:

"Boys tend to talk more once they start drinking; after all, people speak the truth when they're drunk."

"He doesn't seem to have any bad habits."

Zhou Juzi shook her head.

Xia Weichan doesn't seem like that kind of person at all.

Furthermore, due to her childhood experiences, the girl dislikes alcohol. She believes that alcohol can make people overly aggressive, and even a person with a bad nature can become worse by using alcohol as an excuse.

Zhou Juzi looked at her slightly trembling fingers, said nothing, and silently got off Liang Na's bed.

Tomorrow she will officially join this season's debut group.

If they can repay Xia Weichan's money and consistently generate revenue for the company, maybe she'll be able to ask "why" on her own initiative...

.........

[Southern mountainous area of ​​Qingcheng, melting snow]

finally...

Xia Weichan finally got her exact location.

This is undoubtedly extremely exciting. Ever since learning that Qingcheng also has a habitat for the Northern Long-tailed Tit, Xia Weichan's mind has been filled with birds.

Even on the way back, while waiting at a traffic light, I couldn't help but glance at my phone to see if the user named "Returning Bird Farewell" had replied.

Xia Weichan quickly exited the current interface and searched for the specific location of Rongxue Mountain.

He has made up his mind; he must go and take a look soon!

If it weren't for the fact that it was already close to dusk after driving Zhou Juzi to school, Xia Weichan could have gotten up and gone today.

Hey, looking at the birds?

Birdwatching is much more interesting than the tedious process of raising a young girl.

Once you've maxed out Azusa's character development progress, let's go on a global tour!

With a bright future just around the corner, Xia Weichan smiled sincerely.

Before his excitement had even faded, his phone rang again.

The noisy ringing of the bell made Xia Weichan feel a little irritated.

He glanced at it; it was a familiar phone number.

It's Ke Yuexuan again...

It was this guy both times, ruining his good mood.

It couldn't be another threatening call, could it? Xia Weichan wanted to refuse the call.

But after thinking about it, I decided against it.

It's rather beneath a young woman of high status in her family to threaten strangers twice for the sake of her property.

Normally, someone in her position wouldn't need to speak to him personally. Preparing a few black vans and then ambushing him at a quiet intersection would be more in line with the dark tactics of the family.

The fact that you're talking directly to yourself means you still want to discuss it.

"Feed".

"Hello, Mr. Xia."

Yes, the voice on the phone this time was indeed softer, less assertive than last time, and carried a tentative tone of negotiation.

"Ms. Ke, would you like to ask about inheritance?"

However, for her own safety, Xia Weichan spoke first:

"As I said last time, I've already been to the notary office."

After she finished speaking, Xia Weichan could hear a very faint click of her tongue. The other person was silent for a moment before speaking again:

"There's no need to be so wary of me; I don't have much hostility towards you."

After hearing the girl's soft, seemingly coaxing voice, Xia Weichan clicked her tongue in imitation.

If he gets into trouble, at least 8% of the group's shares will be returned to the state, not to mention the numerous additional assets.

Ke Yuexuan certainly wouldn't dare to harbor any hostility; in fact, she's probably the person who least wants him to die right now, bar none.

After all, the higher-ups probably wanted to curb the rampant expansion of such a family a long time ago.

"I'm calling you in person this time because I want to discuss this with you."

"What do you want to discuss?"

Xia Weichan seemed to detect a hint of helplessness in Ke Yuexuan's tone; it really did sound like a working person negotiating business with a client.

To be honest, he really never imagined that Ke Yuexuan's personality would turn out the way it is now.

In Xia Weichan's memory, that girl had always wanted to break away from her family and live a free life...

At that moment, the girl's calm voice came from the phone:

"I booked a private room near you, and I'll be the only one here."
